Machete was the most knowledgeable and kind guide and he provided us an unforgettable experience!
5/5

The safari was the most unforgettable experience, thanks to Machette! We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was so knowledgeable of both Serengeti and Ngorongoro, he was so kind, and made sure that we were having a good time and saw so many different things. We all learned so much from him, and he made our short time on our safari the most memorable and I seriously cannot thank him enough. This will be a memory that we cherish forever and I am sure we will never forget Machete as well! My point of contact prior to the safari was Rehema and she was super responsive and answered my many questions! She ensured we had a smooth trip from start to finish!

A dream come true!
5/5

Going on a safari has always been one of our dreams and we managed to make them come true with Mountain Warriors. It was truly an unforgettable experience thanks to our guide Bob and our chef Innocent who were tireless to make our experience complete. Loveness was also essential for this as she was very quick in responding and helped us put together the ideal itinerary. We were also lucky enough to share everything with an incredible group who made our days better!
Thank you Moutain Warriors for the excellent work!

Bob was thoughtful, kind and patient!
5/5

What a Wonderful experience! We did the 3 night 4 day safari. They picked us up at the Arusha airport where we were joined by 2 others from Portugal and another 2 from Germany, we had a great "safari Family."
We had a long drive the first day, got to know each other, and saw some animals. We stayed at great accommodations, and the first night was great! They were wonderful and even gave us a sweet setup to be recognized for being on our honeymoon. They were brick buildings, almost looked comparable to dorm buildings. The room was GIANT. We had our own balcony and bathroom and huge bed. All places we stayed at had mosquito nets, which we appreciated.
We also had a chef/cook with us for each day that made lunch for us. We had breakfast and dinner at the lodging, all yummy, and we were not disappointed by anything. Innocent was a great chef. He made amazing meat, veggie, and rice dishes, the mango juice was my favorite, though they never kept it cold, which was just not that big of a deal lol
The days we went out Bob was great! He made sure we got to see all the animals that we wanted and more. Warthogs, giraffes, elephants, many different birds, ostriches, zebras, water buffalo, lions, heeynas, gazelles and much more. Bob made sure we got to see Leoparde's, we saw 2, one faar away and another much closer, hanging in trees resting.
We had lions walk right next to our jeep, SO COOL. Elephants eating right next to the road, so sweet and a baby who was talking to us, or more so scared b/c of the noise of the vehicle. We ALSO got to see Cheetahs, Bob did an AWESOME job, he stopped and asked SO MANY other drivers/cars if they had seen them, probably for close to an hour before we found some hanging out by a tree, it was awesome!
We got lucky on the last day and got to see some Servals, dog sized cheetah looking cats, they were so cute playing in the Ngorongoro crater area. we really wanted to see the BIG 5 and we saw a Rhino SUPER far away through our binoculars, which was great to count, but not as close of a look as we hoped for.
Overall WONDERFUL tour company, communicative, made sure we were fed, had LOTS of water and beverages every day throughout the trip, our tour guide, Bob was great, Innocent was very sweet as well and we got very lucky with the group we had "safari family" for the 4 days!

Came to see animals, found a friend.
5/5

We booked a 3 days tour with montain warriors and everything went smooth as silk.
We were a little bit frustrated since the flight company changed our flight without notice and we were scared about not having time to see all animals. Was time too short for seeing all animals? Maybe... Was this a problem? Definitely not. Why? Because at the airport one guy picked us up and from that moment and forward we've been in his awesome hands. His name is Simon and he introduced us to this amazing experience. He told us facts about the national parks and then we started the journey. What a journey! He knew that our time was very short and he did everything possible to make our experience unforgettable. He proposed us to wake up very early (allowing us to have breakfast with stunning views, probably the best of our lives), and he drove on and on seeking for animals.
It seemed like he knew where all the animals would have been and drove to them, allowing us to take stunning pictures and videos to animals crossing the road right in front of us. He has so much experience in this job and this allows him to anticipate every single move of the animals, being in the right place at the right time. Having lunches and dinners with him allowed us to know many stories about tribes and so on. But, most importantly he told us about his life and we did it too, allowing ourselves to discover different cultures.

If we knew how good he would have been, we would have asked for Saimon when booking. If you are reading this, you definitely should.

All the accomodations were very good, allowing the customers to sleep inside one of the best national parks. Amazing quality of food even in the middle of nowhere.

This experience can change your life if you're lucky enough to meet a driver that puts passion in his work and cares about making 3 days the best days of your life.

Well done Saimon (also mountain warriors), hope to see you again one day.

the best guide and journey, it's our lucky to choose moutain warriors!!!
5/5

We chat with 10+ groups when we plan this africa journey, and the moutain warriors always reply very quickly,and the pdf is the MOST DETAILD AND LOGICAL. we don't have enough time, and the mountain warriors is the ONLY group can take us to Kilimanjoro in 5th day and arrived the madara hut(other company think it's impossible).
Our safari guide MBWANA is the BEST guide in the world, at the start he asked us which animals so he can pay more attention to find them,and we tell him we like every animals . So in our 4 days safari in serengati and engrongor,WANA try his best to show us more and more animals,we know more than 70 animals !!! and we really enjoy it! also,WANA is a very knowledgable and experienced ,he can recoganzize every animals(although maybe a small bird)and show us in the book. he is very friendly with other rangers, they share messages in video, and help tourists find more animals. we really miss the day with WANA.
Our moutain guide SAM is a gold guide with 2-years work experience. we only have 1 day in Kilimanjoro, but we arrived in madara hut,see the peak and go back in 4pm. on the road to airport,we see the wholo Kilimanjoro and take the best photo! !!
Our zanzibar dolphin guide is a cool guy and patient,he always sad hakuna matata and make us happy,he have a very good taset in music.
IN THE WHOLE trip , the accomodation and the food are always better than my expectations,and the water、beer、wine is always local and have a good taste. Every day we eat full、sleep good and have good memory. LOVENESS is a good boss and always keep in touch with us online, she arrange everything comfortable and successful.
In the end, I want to say :it's our lucky to choose moutain warriors and meet so many good people in Africa,I will recommand to my friends and all the tourist who have a plan to travel AFRICA. thanks for the moutain warriors!thank you very much!!!

Meru Waterfall and Arusha National Park - what two great day trips

During our stay in Arusha, we decided to visit the less-visited hotspots in Tanzania, such as the Meru Waterfall and Arusha National Park, each on a day trip. And we were overwhelmed by the beautiful nature along the river to the waterfall not far from the city. I recommend this day trip to anyone who is in Arusha and wants to enjoy the nature nearby - a little paradise not far from Arusha.
Arusha National Park is equally stunning. Getting so close to the animals on a hike at the foot of Mount Meru is indescribable and unforgettable. The pictures speak for themselves. The picnic at Lake Momella in the national park was the crowning glory of the day. What a wonderful place. Again, I can only recommend everyone to visit this beautiful spot.

The excursions were super well prepared with snacks and drinks and our guide was so friendly and funny, explained everything to us and answered all our questions - he was also a great photographer 🥰 Thanks for that and to the team from Mountain Warriors Tours and Safaris who made this experience possible for us.

5/5

We contacted mountain warriors over Safari bookings. Our contact was Rosemary, who was very fast responding and forthcoming.
We met her in person and she patiently answered all our questions. We expresses concerns about the payment before the trip, which was no problem and we paid just before we left to the safari.
Our guide was Osman who took great care of us. He was a great driver, animal spotter and caretaker in one. He provided us also with drinks and stopped on the way to let us try the fruit of the baobab tree or grilled corn. We really can recommend the tour with him!
Only thing we didn't like, was that the rest of our group had different sleeping accommodation. That made it necessary to drop us or the other clients of and continue the drive. Which meant, that we had to get up earlier or waited for the pick up.
Before and after the safari and tours pick up and drop off we're included.
We can totally recommend Mountain warriors.

Everything is perfect.
5/5

This is my first time to book online service and it’s very lucky to choose Mountain Warriors because everything goes very well. Me and my friend came from China and we’re all satisfied with this 4-day trip, it’s unforgettable and wonderful memories.
I contacted with the operator by WhatsApp and they replied very quickly and even for my small questions(like the weather and clothes, thanks for their remind that I was not that cold during the camp night😆). Our guide is amazing, his name is Joachim. He picked us up at the hotel and the whole trip was so nice! Thankfully he took us track the animals and we saw all the big 5! We even found the mom cheetah and her babies!! They are so cute😻😻😻. Joachim always said he wanted us to be happy and no regret for the Safari so he worked very hard to take us see different animals, such as big five, baboons, zebra group, giraffes, leopard(we came very close to them!), wildebeests, Spotted Hyaena, Black Backed Jackal, Warthog, oryx, gazelle and some other bucks. Oh we even saw the crocodile and my favorite flamingos!!! I took so many good pictures for them. By the way, it’s highly recommended to take a long lens, I took a 100-400 telephoto lens and it was amazing. It’s also necessary to take a jacket because at night in Ngorongoro is cold.
All in all, everything of this safari is perfect and I am happy to choose Mountain Warriors💪🏾💪🏾.

Lovely trip & experience!
5/5

My friend an I booked a 3 day safari with mountain warriors and we absolutely loved it! The tour operator is very responsive and always replied very quickly to our questions (thank you Rosemary). The safari itself was well organised and Mike was a great guide that provided great information, next to finding the best spots to see the animals. Overall a great experience and we were even offered free transportation from the airport to our accomodation the day before we started the safari. Highly recommended!
