I'm convinced Eco Africa Climbing is one of the very the best Kilimanjaro tour operators!
My friends and I had a truly incredible experience climbing the beautiful Mount Kilimanjaro with Eco Africa Climbing. I feel incredibly lucky to have had their team look after us for the entirety of our time in Kilimanjaro. We really did feel in very safe hands from the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport. The communication with Frederick from when we booked the trip, all the way through to the conclusion of our time in Kilimanjaro, made the whole experience seamless and minimised any worries or concerns we may have had.
Our wonderful guide, John, collected us from the airport and dropped us off at our hotel. We had three wonderful guides looking after us for the whole trip; John, Jackie and Babusha. They checked to make sure we had all the appropriate gear and offered any rentals we may need. We had a total of 19 amazing porters on our team. They really are the kindest, most considerate and hard-working people I have had the honour of meeting. Nothing was too much trouble. They had such a big team looking after just five of us embarking on the hike.
Nothing was spared and they really went above and beyond. All we had to worry about was putting one foot in front of the other and keep going. They carried most of our gear. We only had to carry our daypacks. They set up our lovely tents and the rest of the camp. Chef cooked us the most delicious hot meals three times a day, every day. I honestly don't know how he did it! The lovely Emmanuel served us all of our meals in the mess tent, woke us up every morning with a coffee in our tent, brought us hot water to wash every morning and evening. They did a medical check on us every morning and evening, which gave us all peace of mind.
They thought of every detail, with Thomas taking the time and care to clean our boots when we got to camp, greeting us with refreshing tropical juice. Despite their tough working, they were all so friendly, kind and patient with us. They shared their knowledge about the local wildlife and zones of the mountain we were in. The brilliant DJ John kept us going with vast array of tunes.
Undoubtedly, I would not have made it to Stella Point if I did not have this incredible team. Their phenomenal encouragement and guidance got me to the peak. And I am so delighted we made it. It was a truly magical experience and I feel so fortunate to have reached the Roof of Africa with this wonderful team.
Climbing Kilimanjaro was a true once-in-a-lifetime experience. It can be overwhelming to choose which company to go with as there appears to be so much online. I would have no hesitation in recommending Eco Africa Climbing. Firstly, they are a KPAP-registered company, meaning they treat their porters fairly. This was one of my major concerns when researching companies. They are actually based in Moshi, and not a big international company. When speaking with many of the different members of the team, they all had only positive things to say about their company and were very proud to be members of Eco Africa. They were very transparent about everything.
Choose Eco Africa Climbing if you want to have a truly incredible experience in Kilimanjaro and support the local hard-working people who will go the extra mile for you.

Excellent Drivers who escorted me to where I wanted to go.
The overall value for money was great. The alllowed me at the last minute, while in Kruger, to change my itinerary with out cost, which gave me more time in the Kruger National Park.
i chose 3 star accommodations which were perfectly adequate and actually very nice.
The sub contracted tours, were in very equiped vehicles.
This wasnt a luxury tour, but it was everything that I wanted and higher quality than a 3 star as promised.
Khongi was a great driver, very service oriented and provided top notch service and attention.
I would use this tour company again.

Simply Perfect In Every Way
I recommend Goldfinch (GF) without hesitation. I contacted five safari companies with identical enquiries, yet only two replied - and Brenda at GF responded immediately, which was a very lucky thing for us. She was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and crafted the perfect itinerary.
When I later asked if my 93-year-old father could join, she liaised with the camps straight away, and every adjustment was handled flawlessly. The camps themselves were stunning, and the staff were amazing - they even adored singing and dancing with my dad, which meant the world to us.
Our guide, Ludo, was exceptional, and we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five and so much more.
Thank you, GF, for an unforgettable adventure and memories that will last a lifetime.

Fantastic 48 hours in the Serengeti
This was a spur of the moment trip, taken while we were in Zanzibar.
From start to finish Enoch was very professional and handled our last minute booking with aplomb. Everything’ was organised within 24 hours, we knew where we needed to be, who was picking us up and what would happen in between those times. That really helped us place our trust in Maasailand Adventure and Awareness.
We knew Enoch couldn’t guarantee the big five but, within 20 minutes we were standing in the vehicle platform watching a leopard decide its evening menu! Amazing experience!!
We saw lions, cheetahs, zebras, elephants, hippos all on day one. We didn’t think it could get better……. Then we met the crew at @serentiylodge, a real oasis in the middle of nowhere. Enoch had trusted them with our evening and they did not let him down. We had a visit from a cheetah while we were waiting for dinner beside a fire pit, sharing stories with Alphinse and his team.
The food was a good as any I have tasted around the world which, considering the location, was a truly spectacular effort.
It was a wrench to leave in the morning but the anticipation of our trip to the Ngorongoro was huge. It was a long drive made quicker by numerous stop offs to watch pumba and his friends on the plains and on our way to the crater.
Rhinos, flamingos, wildebeest, more lions and cheetahs, the wildlife came thick and fast!
Our tip ended way too soon.
We were amazed by the experience and impressed by the professionalism and care shown to us by everyone involved.
If you are looking for a recommendation then this is the one you NEED to book if you want to experience Tanzania and all of its marvels.
