Passionate and dedicated team on budget gear and conditions
Zanzi Trekking offered the best price for the 7 day Lemosho hike that I could find. On top of that, they offered by far the best customer support pre-booking, responding always under a couple hours, with detailed info, a lot of care and empathy, and they were even kind enough to offer us sleeping bags free of charge. I went with just one more friend, and we had the privilege of having a lot of attention from 2 guides and a team of 6 porters and one cook. Everyone in the team was experienced abd committed to making our ascend a success, and they were always driven to find quick solutions to problems. Due to the nature of the mountain and it's climb, surprises are bound to happen (e.g. related to the weather). Being a budget hike, don't expect anything fancy - however, the amenities and services are sufficient, and will throw most hikers outside of the comfort zone at times, which truly contributes to the feeling of accomplishment when reaching the top. The guides were instrumental in helping us reach the summit, as well as descending from it - in our case, since there was a heavy snowfall the night before the final push, there was lots of slippery ice when coming down. Our guides helped me throughout 2 hours, literally giving me their hand/shoulders to support me.
I won't lie, there were some structural things that could be improved, and we made a couple of recommendations in the end - the main one being the quality of the tent, which sometimes had it's zipper jammed and was not completely water proof. However, our team was always quick to find solutions, so in reality we didn't have any problems, just a bit of anxiety at times. For that reason my rating is a 4. But for certain people, those moments actually make up the best stories. All in all, I wouldn't recommend it to people who aren't experienced in camping or haven't done other hikes - except that, this experience will for sure be unforgettable!

The Safari experience was amazing.
The communication throughout was smooth, and the pre - trip communication and service were prompt. During the Safari, we saw a lot of animals. The driver was conscientious and responsible, and paid great attention to safety. The entire journey went very smoothly, and I really liked the hotel I booked.
Great Guide! Flexible Company
For the most part the company did a good job of communicating particularly over WhatsApp. By far our highlight was our guide Rocky. Great Safari!

Wonderful,Safe.
My recent safari experience in the Tanzanian savannah was absolutely incredible! The vast landscapes and the sheer diversity of wildlife were beyond my wildest expectations. We were fortunate to see so many animals up close, from majestic lions and towering giraffes to herds of zebras and elephants. The highlight was definitely the moment we spotted a pride of lions resting under a tree—it was a sight I'll never forget. Our guide was exceptional, not only for his extensive knowledge about the animals and their habitats but also for his unwavering commitment to our safety. He navigated the terrain with ease and ensured that we reached our destination safely, making the entire journey smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone who loves wildlife and adventure. It's truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Amazing Safari experience
The guide was very responsible and led us through the entire Safari journey safely and smoothly. We got to see animals like elephants, zebras, wildebeests, lions, etc. up close. I'm extremely satisfied. Besides, the trip to the island was also a complete success, and I took many beautiful pictures of the scenery!

Amazing
We decided to book our safari with a local agency, and after our research, we chose Jungle Roam Safari.
We contacted Chesi, who was very attentive to our needs and concerns when designing our private tour based on our preferences. In our case, we did a 5-day, 4-night safari, visiting Amboseli, Nakuru, and Masai Mara. The selected hotels met our expectations, offering comfort and a good variety of food. A special mention goes to the SOPA LODGE chain.
Our guide, Rodger, was always attentive and available to our needs. He provided us with a lot of information about the country, its culture, and especially the parks.
Rodger knows the parks perfectly, explaining everything about their wildlife at all times and selecting the best routes and schedules for our safari. His deep knowledge of the area allowed us to see all the species in the parks we visited.
The highlight of our trip was experiencing “The Big Five.” Simply breathtaking.
Thank you so much for this incredible adventure—we will never forget it!

Just good enough.
Generally speaking, the experience was quite good. However, there were some points that we did not like at all.
First of all, the visit to the "Masai village" from the Enkorok Mara Camp hotel. The hotel is very nice. However, we had a very bad experience with the visit to the “Masai village”. It is not worth visiting it at all. We were 2 adults and 1 kid. We pay 70$ for a 15-20 minutes visit plus the big market that they make ready just after finishing the visit to try to sell to you different kind of items.
Regardless of the cost, the worst point was the feeling we got after the visit. We felt that the only and main aim of the visit was to get money from the foreigners, not to show a real Masai village.
The hotel itself is not directly involved in this visit/activity, but they are aware of the situation. In fact, one of the hotel staff members were directly involved in the visit as an inhabitant of the Masai village. Therefore, they should advise their clients about the details of the activity.
Second one, we got the feeling that our guide was "just doing his job" without providing any extra advice or knowledge of many points related to the trip. For example, he does not advise us on how to deal with the shopping at the markets. He neither advise us on the visit to the Masai village. In fact, he even recommended us to go to the Masai village.
Therefore, it could have been quite better.
