A truly special trip with exceptional service and care from TTC.
5/5

I have just returned from a trek with Tanzania Travel Company. Starting at the foothills of Mount Longido, a sacred Maasai mountain, our group of 12 trekked across the floor of the Great Rift Valley right to the foothills of the visually stunning Crater Highlands. We walked in the footsteps of ancient Maasai warriors covering a total of 74km in just 4 days. Sam, William and Clement from Tanzania Travel Company were with us every step of the way, keeping us on our feet and moving forward, and teaching us about their beautiful country and its history.

The scenery was breathtaking and the landscape was scattered with Maasai bomas and the people who live in them. We were privileged to meet some of the locals along the way and experience a Maasia market in Kitumbeine. We were constantly surprised by what we saw, I remember leaving camp at sunrise on the second morning and after less than a mile we were face to face with a family of giraffe enjoying breakfast.

We were camping for 5 nights in the wild African bush, but the team at Tanzania Travel Company looked after us so well that we felt at complete comfort and ease from the moment we arrived and every moment of the trip was pure luxury. We were treated to tea and coffee in our tent upon waking in the morning and returned to the camp each day to an ice cold foot bath a warm bush shower. The food was exceptional from African stew to meatballs or Cajun chicken. The chef, Antony cooked an impressive variety and even home baked bread in a hand built underground oven.

When our physical challenge was over we spent a day on a Safari drive at the Ngorongoro Crater, its plains are filled with wildlife and we were spoiled with sightings of lions, hippos and zebra to name a few.

This trip was a truly special one, not only for the scenery, wildlife and interaction with ancient maasai communities, but for the friends we made at Tanzania Travel Company. Every single member of the team went above and beyond to make our trip comfortable and memorable. Tanzania and all of the team at Tanzania Travel Company will have a special place in our hearts, until we return again.

If you’re thinking about visiting Tanzania don’t think about it any longer, book a trip with Tanzania Travel Company. It will be the trip of a lifetime.

Kili Trek Lemosho Route
5/5

A group of us undertook a summit through TTC and Berber Treks of the UK. Both companies did a great job looking after us and providing practical advice for our trip. Climbing Kilimanjaro is both a personal and team challenge. The good humored leadership provided by TTC through our local guides AJ & Doc really helped us approach the final summit with the correct mix of optimism and realism. They ensured that we kept the correct pace (pole pole) and accurately explained what to expect, without unduly alarming us. The rest of the TTC team included porters, cooks and general hands - they were all pleasant and helpful throughout the 8 days we were together. Food and conditions in camp were excellent. Finally Sam, the owner of TTC, met with us before and after our trip to check all was fine and take note of any comments. Happy to recommend Tanzania Travel Company.

Kilimanjaro trek lemosho route
5/5

I would highly recommend Tanzania Travel Company to anyone wanting to successfully get to the summit of Kilimanjaro. We were a group of people with mixed altitude experience. We found the journey exhilarating and the sense of achievement at getting up to the summit is immeasurable! We were supported by a group of experienced guides, chefs, doctor and porters. Their combined efforts made our journey to the roof of Africa an unforgettable experience. A big thank you to Ben, AJ, Doc, Jackson and Suleiman for all your help along the way!

Exceptional service! This company goes the extra mile!
5/5

I would not hesitate to recommend TTC to anyone considering a safari or Kilimanjaro trek in Tanzania. I recently trekked up Kilimanjaro with TTC and their equipment is far superior to other local companies in particular their waterproof luggage bags, comfortable dining tent and portable commode toilet. Their staff were very professional and knowledgeable always going the extra mile to help us when we were tired; such as helping to pack our bags; washing dirty clothes, blowing up mattresses and bringing extra drinks and snacks up the mountain for us. On the summit night all the guides were very attentive to each individual on trek and the local doctor didn't miss a thing - subsequently we all achieved the summit. The tour went without a single hitch and all the small extras were really appreciated. Thank you - we will be using your services again!
