We booked a trip with your company at the 26th of June and we had the privilege
to do the trip with William.
William was a great tour guide! He showd vast knowledge on everything from the animals to the nature that surrounded us. In addition, he greeted us warmly and was very nice throughout the whole trip.
There is no doubt in our minds that if we come back to Tanzania we will want to do more trips with William and if we will hear from anyone we know that they are going to Tanzania, we will recomend him.

Lake Manyara, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater form the backbone of this 5-day camping adventure—perfect for wildlife enthusiasts craving the raw, untamed beauty of Tanzania. Ernest Hemingway once called Lake Manyara the ‘loveliest’ he’d seen in Africa, and you’ll quickly see why as you witness thousands of flamingos and herds of wildebeest, zebra, and buffalo.
Next, experience the world-famous Serengeti, where the Great Migration unfolds in a spectacle of survival and drama. Watch as game animals traverse crocodile-filled rivers and predators stalk their prey in real time. The journey concludes in the Ngorongoro Crater, a unique ecosystem where rare species like the black rhino thrive, and the chance to spot the Big Five in a single day is high.
The USP of this tour package lies in its access to some of the most concentrated wildlife viewing opportunities on the planet, all while camping under the stars for an authentic safari experience. Ideal for those who seek both adventure and nature’s grandeur.

The Marangu route is one of the most popular routes to the summit of Kilimanjaro. This could partly be as a result of the fact that the Marangu is the least expensive route but more so perhaps the fact that it is possible to do the Marangu route in 5 days thereby getting to the summit one day earlier compared to the Machame route. This is not always the best way due to a shorter acclimatization period. That is one thing to take into account before decided to do the Marangu route.
Nobody, even how fit they are, know how their body will respond in high altitude. If you want to increase your chances for making a successful summit, we recommend the Machame route.
The shared hut accommodation on the Marangu route is one of the main differences compared to the other routes, where you have to camp. Mineral water, soft drinks, chocolates and beers are also sold at all the camps on this route.
All your equipment and supplies are portered and our cook will prepares all your meals.
