The first day we went to Tarangire and saw many elefants, giraffes, lions, monkeys etc. It was a fun and interesting start of our adventure. The next day we passed Ngorongoro and went to Serengeti. Beside other animals, we saw leopards and buffalos! It was amazing. We also had buffalos around our camp during the night so that was pretty awesome. The last day we saw rhino in the crater! We saw all of the Big 5! Great experience, worth the money and I would definitely recomend it to anyone. We stoped at masai village (Longoko) for an entrance fee of 50$ per car and it was interesting as well.

A wonderful and rewarding adventure! One of the most challenging and incredible experience in my life. I was challenged physically, mentally and spiritually! I was most inspired by my guide, Philemon as he saw to my every questioned being answered along the way, and the porters who ensured all the necessities were made available. Whenever I doubted my ability to continue the climb, I would ask these gentlemen how do they accomplish this so often with such ease - the enjoyment they have for their clients to experience this very incredible peace of Africa! I felt such a profound connection to nature, to the ancients, to Africa - and how incredible it was to experience all the different climates in one part of a Holy Land!
Webster organized perfectly my stay and he was flexible adjusting schedule so that i see the big 5 for sure. he also took me to the hospital after a light food poisoning and he assisted me all the way
We had a wonderful trip to Egypt planned by the local travel specialists. We saw everything we had hoped to see and enjoyed the expertise that our guides Yousra Ali and Mahmoud Badr provided. Our driver Zaher did a great job navigating the traffic in Cairo. Mahmoud our contact helped us get the COVID tests we needed to return home for which we are grateful.
From start to finish this trip was perfect. In Tanzania, our guide was a top notch professional and extremely knowledgeable, taking us off the beaten path to provide us with an unrivaled experience in the parks. Our tour operator's advice for Tanzania were also unimpeachable. Our guide provided us with a social and political perspective no travel brochure could provide. It was a privilege for us to have him share his story with us which was honest, raw, and poignant and changed us in profound ways. We surprised by the level of hospitality from the owner of the tour operator, he organized for us a free BBq dinner at the end of our trip and he bother to drive us to the airport himself he made us felt we paid less for all we got. We recommend you to our friends and travelers.

Good experience. Quick communication. Nice land cruiser, good hotel, driver acted as guide and was knowledgeable and accommodating to our wishes. Would use their services again.
This 14-day Tanzania Safari in Style package was one of the best experiences of our lives. The journey begins in Arusha, and each destination is a different story. When a huge lion walked past us through the car window in Serengeti, it really felt like we were inside a scene from a documentary. Our guide was very knowledgeable and sincere. He not only showed us the wildlife but also introduced us to the Maasai culture. At the end of the day, returning to the luxurious lodge and sitting with a cup of coffee at sunset - those moments cannot be expressed in words. For those who want the ultimate African experience, Northern Masailand Safaris can undoubtedly be the best choice.

We were well cared for and had a great time throughout the trek. The guides really helped our success of reaching the top. Thank you to the whole team!
"My Family had the pleasure of embarking on an incredible journey organized by this tour operator, which included a Kilimanjaro trek and an unforgettable safari experience. From start to finish, their meticulous planning and exceptional service made this trip an absolute dream come true.
First and foremost, the communication with Joan was outstanding. From the initial inquiry to the final details, their team was attentive, prompt, and knowledgeable. They patiently answered all my family questions and provided valuable insights to ensure I had a clear understanding of what to expect throughout the trip.
The guides and porters were not only highly skilled and experienced but also genuinely passionate about their work. They took great care of our group, ensuring our safety and well-being at every step of the journey. Their expertise and encouragement played a significant role in reaching the summit successfully.
The accommodations provided were excellent. From cozy lodges to comfortable campsites, every location was carefully selected to offer a comfortable respite after a challenging day of trekking. The facilities were clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary amenities, ensuring a good night's rest and rejuvenation.
After conquering Kilimanjaro, the safari experience was nothing short of extraordinary. The carefully curated itinerary allowed us to explore the breathtaking landscapes and witness the diversity of wildlife that Tanzania has to offer. From the vast Serengeti plains to the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, each destination provided a unique and awe-inspiring encounter with nature. We strongly recommend this local agency.

The Marangu route is easily the most popular way of climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. Not only is Marangu the least expensive option, it is also shorter as it makes it possible to climb to the summit sooner.
The Marangu route is a classic trek to the top of Kilimanjaro. However, it has the least scenic variety of all routes (ascent and descent are done on the same path) and is the most crowded for that reason. It is the only route which offers sleeping huts in dormitory style accommodations. There are 60 bunk beds each at Mandara and Kibo Huts, and 120 bunk beds at Horombo Hut.
Many favor the Marangu route because it is considered to be the easiest path on the mountain, given its gradual slope and direct path. Known as the "Coca-Cola" route, it approaches Kilimanjaro from the southeast. It is the oldest, most well-established route.
The minimum days required for this route is five, although the probability of successfully reaching the top in that time period is quite low. Spending an extra acclimatization day on the mountain is highly recommended.
