Excellent Kilimanjaro climb and 4-day safari combo with Burigi Chato Safaris
I really enjoyed my Tanzania trip with Burigi Chato Safaris which included a Kilimanjaro climb via the scenic Lemosho route (6 days) and a 4-day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater National Parks. The service was great throughout the trip, operator very responsive and flexible and open to customer requests/wishes. Everything worked as planned. The service during the tour was outstanding as well - guide (Gabriel), chef, and porters made the Kilimanjaro climb a wonderful experience and provided thorough advice/support. Our safari guide (Doni) was very experienced and allowed us plenty of time with the animals to take photos and observe. All accommodations were nice and as described. Airport pickup/drop-off on time and stress-free. I would book with Burigi Chato Safaris again and would recommend their tours to my family and friends.

Top Kilimanjaro hiking Trip
I have nothing but good things to say about our Kili climb tour. From the beginning, the owner of the company we chose (burigi chato safaris) for our climb, Geoffrey, responded promptly to our emails and any questions (there were many). Our guide John was just the best and was very supportive, I don't know if I would have made it to the summit without him by my side. The food was fantastic, all the other hikers were jealous of our meals. The whole team was just amazing. I don't often write reviews, if ever. But these guys deserve a shout out! Greetings

Quality local operator providing exceptional service.
7 day Lemosho route up Kilimanjaro & 2 day Safari.
Get comfortable as this is a long and detailed review of this exceptional company and their people.
First let me start with Geoffrey who is the director of the company. His ability to answer all my questions and queries via what's app made it so easy for me to choose Burigi chato safaris for all of my needs in Tanzania. Given there was an 8hr time difference between us I was even more impressed with his response rate. Everything was organised seamlessly from the moment I arrived. I was met by my driver and taken to my comfortable lodge in Mosh. I was met by my guide Amin for Mt Kilimanjaro climb. He provided me with a brief outline of the next days activities and went through an equipment check to ensure we only took what we needed for the 7 day trek. Next day I was introduced to the rest of the support team. As other hikers scheduled on this trip postponed their climb to another date, I had the support crew all to myself. There were 7 in total, I would like to say at this stage these guys are exceptional at what they do. It never ceases to amaze me how effortlessly they make it look. Carrying over 20kgs each up and down the mountain they always had our camp and tents all set up long before we even arrived. There was always a hot drink and meal ready whenever you arrived. At this point I would like to add that Wilson and his assistant cook winner are culinary geniuses with what they able to whip up. Example of some foods like fish and chips, rice and beef stews, spaghetti Bolognese, pancakes, crepes etc just to mention a few. Felt bad as all the food looked great but I was not able to eat too much of it as lost my appetite due to altitude. This is where Weshack my waiter comes in. He really should consider a job in sales as he was excellent in convincing me to eat as much I could to keep my strength up. He did a bloody good job too. He will make a good future guide. Speaking of guides I was blessed with such a great one in Amin who has over a decade of knowledge helping climbers achieve their goals. Again an individual that is exceptional at what he does. Always felt safe and confident with his guidance. The rest of the team like Mike our summit porter, Isaiah the dishwasher and Fred our porter all of who made the journey that much better.
The safari was exceptionally organised with all meals and accommodation taken care of. Tarangire park and Ngorongoro crater where phenomenal.
The team at Burigi chato are definitely a company I would recommend for any of your adventures in Tanzania. Whether that be climbing the mountain or doing a multi day safari, these are the folks you need to speak to first. I can not speak of them highly enough. Thank you

Super awesome
I hiked Mt. Meru with Burigi Chato! The trip with them was so smooth! Geoffrey answered my queries on time and he’s very informative. My Guide Isack was very knowledgeable and reliable too. The staff were all amazing especially Mustafa and Rama! I couldn’t have hiked the summit of Meru without them!
Highly recommended!

Exciting and Impressive EcoTour
I lost my iPhone in the river of Engero Sero Waterfalls and the Maasai Guide helped me to find out on the day after. The overnight hiking to the summit of Ol’doinyo Lengai was amazing and the Maasai Guide supported me to get down the volcano. I spotted lots of flamingos at Lake Natron and I visited the Maasai Tribe on the last day. During the tour, I slept in a tent and had meals with different tourists in a big hut. Cold beverages including beers was available in the hut with Wi-Fi. Finally, I paid for the tour to drive me to Moshi to have a look of the view of Mountain Kilimanjaro. It is good to have an unforgettable experience in your holiday with this tour!

Excellence, smartness and professionalism in adventures
I always take a look at my walls full of beautiful photos at the roof of Africa. I greatly appreciate the summit opportunity which made easily by Burigi Chato Safaris Company Limited within my 8 days of hiking Mount Kilimanjaro. Awesome experience never to forget. My Summit Certificate reminds me a lot about the company and the experience at all. I truly recommend the tourist to hike the mountain full of beautiful views but with this Company. Beautiful Kilimanjaro!
