Our group had a really good time and were well looked after
We were picked up on time from our hostel in Dar Es Salaam and accompanied us on our journey to Mikuni. It took about 5hrs to get there, including a stop in a service station for breakfast. When we arrived we were given lunch and then headed out for the safari. The jeeps were very comfortable and our guides were very knowledgeable. We stayed in a motel that night and started back on safari early next morning. We were very lucky to see a lion attack a zebra right in front of our truck. The rest of our safari was great and the journey back flew by. We were really well looked after by everyone, and it was a very reasonable trip. 10/10 would recommend to a friend

Good service for low budget safaris
We had a 6-day safari in Masai Mara national park, Nakuru, Naivasha (hell's gate) and mt Longonot. We enjoyed every destination and the budget accommodation we spent the nights in. Even if we had been told that in our van the maximum number of people would have been 7, we were 8 during some days of the tour. It wasn't such a big problem because we were all young and friendly, but it wasn't properly what we were expecting.
Cyrus, our dear driver, we are gonna miss you man! He is a polite guide, always willing to do his best to make your safari unforgettable. He was the first to wake up, and the last to drop you off at the camping! Thanks to him we managed to see all the big five and many wildlife rare scenarios! Even more than we were expecting!
To conclude, we recommend them! Please just have clear in mind all your itinerary because sometimes they seem to forget it!

Amazing 4 day at Kruger
Ryan was a great guide. He exceeded our expectation. We are a family of five, youngest 13 year old. He answered almost all our question and we had many. Wealth of information. Ryan was prompt and very attentive to our needs. Thale cooking was wonderful, second helping was the norm. We saw more than we could imaging, even a rare white lion. Highly recommended

Safe and reliable
We were well served by Terminal Tours and had an exceptionally good driver. However we cannot give 5 stars as 7 people were too many in a vehicle for comfortable travel and game viewing. We were also on 4 different itineraries and it meant a lot of valuable time was wasted diverting around to drop people off. However we still provide 4 stars as some efforts were made to try and make us for lost opportunities. We were also surprised there were no binoculars in the vehicle and strongly recommend taking your own pair.

Soul of Tanzania is the Best!
We had the opportunity to take a tour of northern Tanzania with Soul of Tanzania. This review will be in two parts; the first is the company, the second is the driver. This is for a party of 2 in July 2017. We spent eight days on Safari. The first day was in Tarangire. The next two days were in central Serengeti. We then spent two days in northern Serengeti, followed by a day in Ngorongoro crater.
Company: we did an extensive amount of research for our Safari. Soul of Tanzania was the first company to respond to our request, and all subsequent emails were also replied to promptly. We felt the pricing was fair. The vehicle was in excellent condition, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and it was equipped with a refrigerator to keep bottled water cold. There is a charging strip to charge your batteries, cameras, etc. We were served hot delicious lunches every day in picturesque locations. They tailor-made our itinerary, and we loved every minute of it. The company did provide us with a good list of things to bring on safari. One thing we would recommend is a pair of binoculars for each person. The driver is equipped with a pair which you can borrow, but we strongly recommend to bring your own. We each had our own pair and we used them constantly. This company was excellent, and we received five star service.
Driver: we had the pleasure of having Zamo as our driver. He is personable, knowledgeable, and professional. He always honored our requests. We enjoyed getting to know him in the week we spent with him. He was always punctual and flexible with what we wanted to do. He was entertaining and informative at the same time. You can tell he has passion for what he does, and he is excellent at it. We only have positive things to say about Zamo. His English is excellent, and he taught us several words and phrases in Swahili.
Conclusion: we would highly recommend Soul of Tanzania for your Safari, and we also highly recommend requesting Zamo as your driver.

Was very comfortable on this safari and was able to see and do a lot in the two days. Learned a lot and had all my questions answered. Joseph was a wonderful guide and was very helpful and kind to my group and helped us with all of our needs. Would highly recommend to groups of all ages.

A driver guide can make a safari trip be amazing: Wnjau (Animal) is just great!
The experience of 7 days of safari has been very positive, we have enjoyed it a lot and we had a great time. The only thing we did not like is that water was included in the price of the safari and we didn't see those bottles arrive, it seems that no one had them. They only gave us 3 litres for 2 people for the whole week ... Everything else perfect, very happy!

Amazing experience with a fantastic guide
Eustace Baragu was his name and safari was his game! Eusty was all we could have hoped for on our vacation. Very knowledgeable, very chill, very cool guy. We spent four days in Massai Mara with him and each day was better than the one before. He knew where all the good spots were. We saw more lions than I can remember, two cheetahs, three wildebeest crossings, and crocodiles drowning said wildebeests.
10/10. Would definitely safari again.

Amazing Kilimanjaro experience with Kilitwende family
We used Kilitwende Adventures to climb Mt Kilimanjaro in June 2017. Bob and his team were fantastic from the start, from picking us up at the airport to our drop off 8 days later. We chose the 6day/7night Machame route. They made sure we had the appropriate gear for the hike and also sourced items we needed/wanted, nothing was too much trouble for them. I can highly recommend them, not only did we leave with the accomplishment of summiting Mt Kilimanjaro, we also left with life long friends. Thank you Bob, John and team
