Botswana and Tanzania Tours and Trips

Fantastic! Our guide Titus was great! Great driver Peter too. Memorable moment was with the Masaii dancing and visiting with hunter gather tribes.

Watching all the animals out in their natural surroundings. Sitting for 30 minutes to watch elephants walk across the plains then cross right in front of the jeep.

One of the top two trips of my life! (The other was Antarctica.) Not only did we see and learn about animals; we also met people and learned about their lives. Our drivers were also guides; they became our trusted friends too. Try to go during shoulder season. We were told things would get a lot busier during high season. We have been with Collette on several tours because we know we can count on them for a great experience.

high cost. should offer more affordable options. great tour guide, but he had to divide his time between 2 jeeps. day lunches were bad. better to offer coffee, wine, fruits, vegetables, maybe a cooler to carry better options. because I didn't have what's app, no one would share photos. after jeep safari had 6 hours to do nothing. would have liked something to do. paid my self for Nairobi tour, a total waste of time and money. paid for extra 1st day to get used to the time change but that was a total waste of money, since the first tour day was do nothing anyway. good dinner foods, but too much food was offered. less volume to say you money. skip the movie tour of "out of africa". that movie was 30 year ago and it was boring. i paid for the first land transfer with the hotel, but they forgot and I waited a couple hours. the local police helped me to contact the hotel. on the jeep rides, several people 'preferred" not to change seats. so I usually ended up in the 2nd row behind the driver which made it less enjoyable to see. I also would have like to have a few more stops for photos. but tour guide was mostly interested in the big 5 photos. I thought the country was beautiful and deserved more photos. I wish they would have suggested to take more cash in $1 bills so that I could tip the bathroom attendants. tour guide emphasized to tip him and the drivers. don't you pay them well? all in all, i would do it again, but only a 1 time trip because of the high cost

Our group of 5 people had an unforgettable Tanzania adventure with Kilisa Tours & Safaris, combining a 5-day mountain hiking experience with a 4-day Tanzania wildlife safari. From the first communication to the end of the trip, everything was professionally organized and exceeded our expectations. We booked our hiking trip with Kilisa Tours because of their strong reputation for Mount Kilimanjaro trekking and Tanzania safari tours, and they truly delivered exceptional service. The mountain guides, porters, and cook were highly experienced, friendly, and very supportive throughout the trek. The team made sure we were safe, motivated, and comfortable every day on the mountain. The safari portion of our trip was equally amazing. Our safari guide was knowledgeable about Tanzania wildlife, national parks, and local culture. During the 4-day safari, we experienced incredible game drives and saw many animals in their natural habitat. The safari vehicle was comfortable, clean, and perfect for photography and wildlife viewing. What makes Kilisa Tours & Safaris stand out among Tanzania tour operators is their excellent customer service, fast communication, attention to detail, and well-planned itineraries. Every transfer, accommodation, and activity was arranged smoothly, making our Tanzania holiday stress-free and enjoyable. If you are looking for the best Tanzania safari company, Mount Kilimanjaro trekking operator, or a reliable local tour company in Tanzania, we highly recommend Kilisa Tours & Safaris. They provided us with a true 5-star hiking and safari experience, and we would definitely book with them again in the future.

I recently completed a 7-day Kilimanjaro trek via the Machame Route with Kilisa Tours & Safaris, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The Machame Route is often described as one of the most scenic paths on Mount Kilimanjaro, and over the 7 days, this proved absolutely true. Each day brought a dramatic change in landscape—from lush rainforest to alpine desert and finally the arctic summit zone. The itinerary was well-paced, allowing proper acclimatization, which was critical for a successful summit. What truly set this journey apart was the professionalism and quality of service provided by Kilisa Tours & Safaris. The guiding team was highly experienced, attentive, and genuinely committed to safety and success. Daily health checks, clear briefings, and constant encouragement made a significant difference, especially during the summit push. The support crew was equally impressive. The camp setup was efficient and comfortable, meals were fresh and well-prepared, and the overall organization exceeded expectations for a mountain environment. Every detail—from logistics to guest care—was handled with precision. Summiting Kilimanjaro is not just a physical challenge; it is a mental and emotional journey. Having a reliable and competent operator like Kilisa Tours & Safaris made that journey not only achievable but deeply enjoyable.
