Got to the top, with lots of help and support
Only great memories. Good quality camping gear, I was under prepared but they helped me at each step. The food was good, and enough for everyone. I would reccommend them.

Among a bunch of options, World Tours & Safaris Tanzania is the best
I was first introduced to Richard Kilonzo, owner of World Tours & Safaris Tanzania, in 2002 by a friend who lives in East Africa. At the time, my friend told me that there are dozens of options for safaris companies, but that Richard and his team are the best. My friend was absolutely correct as the combination of knowledge, friendliness, and customer service of Richard and his dedicated team of tourism professionals made our experience a one in a lifetime adventure. Since 2002, I have referred many friends to World Tours & Safaris Tanzania and time and time again they have all had an excellent experience. Tired of letting others enjoy in all the fun, my wife and I returned again in 2010 for a Mt. Kilimanjaro climb and safaris tour. We experienced the famous top level customer service and excellent treatment that I had in 2002 and many others had over the years. Richard's infectious smile and warm personality, combined with his attention to personal details makes the tour a unique experience that you will not forget. Like my friend put it over 12 years ago, there are many options of tour companies, but Richard and his team truly are the best.
If you have any questions, or would like to speak to me about my experience with World Tours & Safaris Tanzania, please feel free to reach out to me directly. Thank you.

Amazing experience with World Tours and Safari Tanzania
My parents and I booked a safari from World Tours and Safari Tanzania last August. Our three day safari was amazing and well-organised.
We went to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara, where we could see every kind of animals.
The lodges were very clean and comfortable and the food is delicious.
The staff, starting from the director Richard, is wonderful, very welcoming, attentive to the tourists' needs and very knowledgeable.
I recommend World Tours and Safari Tanzania to everyone's going to visit Tanzania.

Amazing experience and great operator - why you should go with a small operator
We booked a trip for the two of us a while ago and it was amazing. A friend of us who lives in Mwtara in an NGO recommended us and he was absolutely right !
The guide was very knowledgeable and was telling us stories all the time, making it even long trips very enjoyable. He recommended where to go, when to go, where to look... Both the jeep and the Camping accomodation was very comfortable and authentic. We are so glad we went with them and not with a much bigger operator !

World Tours And Safaris Tanzania
My husband and I went on a tour with World Tours And Safaris Tanzania in August 2009. We started in Tarangire, headed to Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and ended in Arusha. We had a BLAST.
Richard, the tour operator, is wonderful, and by going with his company, we felt like we were supporting the local economy more than operators in the US who then contract with local companies. In fact, going "local" probably knocked a couple thousand dollars off the price of our trip. It was much more affordable and we didn't have an unlimited budget.
We did the step 2 type accommodations -- so we stayed in the wildlife lodges and not the Serenas. They were perfect for us -- not luxury but more than sufficient, and the views were beautiful.
I would go with Richard's tour company again -- in fact, we may be revisiting and we will book with him again. The only negative of the whole trip was that occasionally our jeep had some issues restarting, but our driver was able to get it going. It just meant a couple of pauses in some areas but still -- it didn't detract from the trip.
Oh and as far as wildlife viewing, we saw what the folks who book through more luxury type operators saw. Plenty of Abercrombie tour buses passing us by. We also saw a kill, and got so "tired" of seeing lions and cheetahs that we got to a point where we weren't stopping for them anymore. You know you are having a great trip when you've gotten to a point where you're only interested in the really rare stuff.
Anyways long story short our trip was wonderful and we'll certainly never forget it. I wholeheartedly endorse Richard's company, and if you are looking to "go local," you won't go wrong here. Good luck and happy safari planning!
