Based in Tanzania, Makasa is an excellent choice to organise a trip of a lifetime
Overall, we have thoroughly enjoyed our trips with Makasa, and this is reflected in the fact that we have repeatedly used them (3 times in 2 years) and consistently recommended them to family and friends. Over the course of our trips, we have found their guides knowledgeable (both in animals and in birds) and eager to show us the beauty of the bush. They have been before the crack of dawn and enthusiastically driven us around for the full day, only getting back at dusk.
There is a real "family feel" about Makasa, where you feel that the owners personally attend to the details of your trip and make it their mission to make sure that your trip is a once in a lifetime experience. Whether it's a camping safari or more luxurious travel, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Makasa to organize it for you.

Personalised, respectful safari
Makasa has their offices in Tanzania, run by a Tanzanian/German and Dutch couple. As there we no other intermediate companies involved the communcation went smooth and well organised and we were able to organise a safari to our personal wishes. The safari jeep was excellent, as was the driver/guide. His knowledge was good, with respect for nature and people. We slowly build up our safari (total 12 days), ending for a couple of days in the Serengeti, and it was magnificent. Whenever we needed Makasa, they were there to help. We strongly recommend.

Fantastic experience with 5* service
Went for the Kilimanjaro expedition with Makasa. The best choice we could have made. Great guides who actually monitor your (health)situation carefully and do everything possible to help enhance your chances to make it to the summit. As comfortably as possible. And so we did. What a fantastic experience. Even breaking my leg after a mis step on the way back hasn't spoiled the memory. Selma en Ngomi made sure I got down safely and took great care of everything in hospital etc.
If you consider climbing the Kili, do it with Makasa and you will have the best chance of actually getting there and enjoying the trip to the full!
