An Amazing Kilimanjaro Trekking Adventure
We just returned home from successfully climbing Mount Kilimanjaro using the Lemosho with a local Tanzanian company – Mboni Adventures. We had one of the most beautiful and memorable experiences on Kilimanjaro and we owe it all to the excellent crew that we had and excellent preparation by our host Jackson.
Our lead guide Johnson together with Martin his assistant guide were really outstanding. They worked well with the other crew consisting of porters, cook and waiter to pull off an amazing show of excellent service, friendly people who were genuinely behind our quest for Kilimanjaro’s summit.
The climb is both challenging and rewarding. There were moments when fatigue and the tough conditions had the better of us, but the kind words of encouragement and actual help kept us going. We both made it to the summit on 31/10 and we are absolutely over the moon with joy.
I strongly recommend Mboni Adventures for Kilimanjaro trekking, as they have great equipment and very capable crew for Kilimanjaro. Their emphasis for safety and comfort is very reassuring!

Trip of a lifetime!!
I couldn’t have imagined a more spectacular and memorable bucket list trip to Kenya and Tanzania, and Leadwood Holidays is all to thank. I am always the trip planner, making detail oriented plans to the hour, but relented the itinerary of this trip to the experts.
The focus of the trip was seeing as many animals and as much natural beauty as possible, and what we experienced vastly exceeded my expectations. Beautiful lush savannahs and grasslands, mountains, rivers, the Big 5 and herds of thousands of animals, was absolutely magical. We were also able to experience some of the city, beaches, and countryside as well. The guides were so experienced, knowledgeable and professional. The safari vehicles we rode in were spacious and comfortable and included amenities such a coolers and charging stations. The lodges and campsite were clean, modern, with staffs committed to the highest level of hospitality.
It is clear that the experts at Leadwood Holidays know this area inside and out. They listened to my wish list and made it all come true. And even more surprising is that over a 15 day holiday, we did not have one set back or problem. Despite spending a good amount of time traveling from one destination to the next, crossing borders, traveling by cars and planes, we did not have one delay or mishap.
Thank you to Leadwood for the trip of a lifetime!

Professional, understanding of our wishes, knowledgable ....Arem Safaris was all of these!
We spent one month touring East Africa with one other couple. Arem Safaris planned our entire trip, taking into consideration our wishes for accommodations, places we wanted to visit, and cultural experiences we wanted to partake in. They were professional and looked after our every need during the tour. The guides were incredibly knowledgable and went over and above to make sure they gave us the the best wildlife viewing opportunities. The thoughtfulness of the guides was amazing...we were even surprised by an evening "sunset drive" on the Serengeti where our guide set up a table complete with chairs and a table cloth and a bottle of wine to watch the sunset with the gazelles grazing nearby! If you are looking for a once in a lifetime adventure, look no further....Arem Safaris went over and above our expectations!

Magical tour!
We had a brilliant three days with Makini going to Napuri waterfalls, Dulati lake, Ngorongoro crater and Tangarine National Park. Nancy, Jobar and the team made everything so easy and went above and beyond to make our trip special.

Nice mix of rural and cosmopolitan beauty especially in Capetown
Booked with Safari Life and had a wonderful experience. I was a little concerned about the transportation connection as there were no direct transfers from Johannesburg to the Umkumbe Lodge in Sabi Sands but it went very smoothly both ways and the wildlife was amazing--most of which we were able to see from the privacy of our back deck. Everything looked very natural from the rhinos we saw in the bush to the monkeys that came down from the trees to steal sugar off our table. The luxurious lodging gave us the best of both worlds enjoying a nice swim or massage when not out on game drives and we even found a leopard. Leopards are the hardest of the Big 5 animals to find because they are solitary animals that hang out in the trees. Wonderful experience with excellent food that the host was able to tailor to any dietary restrictions for any individual.

Amazing to see so many different animals in the wild and to experience the beautiful scenery.
Our 8 day tour in Tanzania was absolutely wonderful! Great seeing many different animals in the wild and the scenery was incredible. Our tour guide was very careful with his driving when we went high and around some bends. I do not like heights but I was comfortable with his driving. The Arusha Farm House is a beautiful place to stay, with a swimming pool, lovely surroundings and very good food.
