Africa Tour Operators and Travel Agencies

Thanks to the tour operator flexibility, we actually did a 12-day tour of Kenya and Tanzania and it was fabulous. Our two guides, Brian and Elly, were fun, friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. We shared a lot of laughs and developed a strong bond in our short time together, and we saw every animal we'd hoped to see (plus some) thanks to them. Customer service was excellent. They responded to emails in a timely manner, changed the schedule around a bit so that we could fly into and out of Nairobi, booked a hotel for the night we arrived without even being asked, and upgraded our accommodations.

First of all, hats off to our guides, Albert (first 3 days) and Benjamin (last 3 days). They were both EXCELLENT drivers and very good at spotting the animals. We were able to see all of the big five, and the places we stayed were nice. You can't beat this tour for the price.

This tour was amazing. Lots to see and do. But what really made this trip exceptional was the staff. The tour guide, Abder, was amazing. He constantly went above and beyond to meet our needs and make sure we were having a great time. He was kind, patient, and has a real passion for what he does. Also has a great sense of humor. I would also like to commend our driver, Abdul. He was kind and hospitable. Drove safely and has a great sense of humor too. All in all, the food, staff, people, culture, and country was great. ~EeJay

I had a great time in Cuba. Lionel and the team were really professional, trustworthy, and accommodating. Would definitely book with them again!

The tour and the guide were excellent, and we saw a lot more than we were expecting in Havana. They were also flexible in letting us see some places on our list so we appreciate it. The hosts in Varadero were also very accompanying especially when we asked to stay a couple extra nights. Overall the tour was fantastic.

Had an amazing time in Japan! The only thing we can say which really wasn’t a challenge as such, was that on our last morning we were being picked up for the airport before the hotel’s breakfast time and we had already paid for that meal. So we had to purchase breakfast elsewhere. Onsens are always a great experience. All three trips that we have booked with you previously have all been a great experience

We took a 10 days trip from Marrakesh to Fes, through Ourzazat and Merzuga desert. Our driver was Mokhtar. We had wonderful time. mokhtar is a very skilled and friendly driver, knowing a lot about every region of Moroco. He knows good photo spots as well. The hotel we stayed in Ourzazat was boutique and very relaxing. The second night we stayed in a luxury camp at the desert, which was above the expectations. A great experience to see a lot of Morocco in relatively short time - I highly recommend Top Desert Tours and Mohamed! Such a variety of experiences and learnt a lot about the country, culture, landscapes, people. Thank you Mokhtar!

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.

It has been an incredible experience made amazing by our fantastic guides Charles and Alfred. We have seen so much more than we expected. Our guides (Rodger and Wycliffe) were so knowledgeable, and helpful and made it possible for us to see far more than we anticipated. I can't rate the experience and service highly enough!

The activities offered by the company were excellent, and the service was outstanding. What really stood out for us was the guide, Francis, who accompanied us throughout the trip. He was the best part of the experience, as he explained everything in great detail, showing his professionalism and knowledge. At the same time, he made the journey fun and enjoyable with his great sense of humor. It was truly an unforgettable experience thanks to him!

Certainly, the best agency to take you on this great adventure on the top of Kilimanjaro! The guides and staff were really professional, answering all the questions and constantly paying attention to your needs, so that you just have to focus on the summit 🏔️ Thanks to the team again, we all made it to the top and had a lot of good time with our group and the entire crew. I would definitely recommend anyone to take this agency!

This tour provider hits it out of the park on the big wins: safety, logistics, and expertise. Their guides conducted twice daily health checks, measuring blood oxygen to ensure we were acclimating appropriately and they had medication ready to cover any malady. On summit day they carried oxygen as a safety measure that I found necessary after experiencing altitude sickness and the team even provided it to another suffering climber whose guides were not carrying oxygen. Not all guide services have these safety measures! The logistics flow was impressive from the get-go with airport and hotel shuttles. The camp logistics on-mountain was even more so. We’d depart camp after breakfast, they’d have tea and snacks set up along the trail, and we’d arrive at lunch to find the mess tent already set up with lunch ready, just to find it and our sleeping tents set up again at the end of the hike with tea and popcorn waiting and dinner shortly to follow. The consideration that the Porter team put into our comfort was overwhelming. The expertise of the team was unquestionable. The company clearly takes hiring very seriously and recruits knowledgeable guides. Professionals across the board whom we greatly trusted. With the big wins checked off in style, the company goes above and beyond with personal touches that make the trip truly memorable. I think the most memorable for us was the tradition and ceremony that the team brought to the experience - celebratory group singing and dancing especially, even cakes and champagne! Then small things like hot water bottles to keep sleeping bags warm really made us feel well cared for.

My family and I took the 9-day Discover Cairo & Luxor with look at Egypt tours: The Wonders of Egypt tour in May 2026, and it was an incredible experience from beginning to end. The itinerary was well planned and gave us enough time to enjoy every destination without feeling rushed. Seeing the Pyramids and the Sphinx for the first time was unforgettable, and exploring the museums, Khan El Khalili, and taking a Nile dinner cruise made our time in Cairo even more special. Luxor completely exceeded our expectations. Walking through Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, Luxor Temple, and seeing the Colossi of Memnon brought Egypt's ancient history to life in a way we never imagined. We stayed at the Fairmont, which was an excellent hotel, and all of the transportation during the trip was clean, comfortable, and punctual. Traveling as a family was easy because everything was so well organized. This tour was the perfect introduction to Egypt, and we returned home with unforgettable memories. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the country's history and culture in a comfortable and well-planned way.

The trip was very well planned and executed. We really enjoyed hotels that the local travel specialist chose for us. The driver was very knowledgeable, kind and professional, we always felt safe with him. Highlights were numerous, but Sahara probably stands out as an exceptional experience.

Excellent trip! We covered a lot of ground from Marrakech all the way up north to the Mediterranean coast with stops in between. Enjoyed every minute! B

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.

We chose this 2-day tour for a short weekend trip, and honestly it was much more than expected. On the first day I entered Tarangire National Park, I was overwhelmed to see huge elephant herds, zebras, giraffes, and lions. The guide explained to us all about the animals. On the second day, while descending to the Ngorongoro Crater, the whole scene is like a dream world - seeing black rhinos, lions, hippos, and innumerable gonos together is a truly amazing experience. Although time was limited, I didn't expect to see so much together. Perfect tour for those who want to taste Africa in a short time.

We, along with a few friends, took part in a 3-day safari, which was planned as Arusha → Tarangire → Lake Manyara → Ngorongoro Crater. We had a lot of fun on this little trip together. At night, it was fun, and during the day, it was all about wildlife. Our guide was very experienced; he would easily find animals and share interesting information about each place. The huge elephant herd in Tarangire, the colorful birds of Lake Manyara and the magnificent view of the Ngorongoro Crater are still remembered. This safari will definitely be a great experience for those who want to enjoy the original beauties of Tanzania in less time.

We took a 8-day safari tour to Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli, organized by this company. The tour was well-organized, with Steve providing prompt advice and Sam, the driver, being knowledgeable about the national parks. We managed to see all Big 5 in one day. Thanks!!
