Great trip!
5/5

We had a fantastic safari with a wonderful guide, Rashid. He was very knowledgeable and considerate. He was very helpful when my mother was ill. The lodges were great and we got some wonderful sightings. We highly recommend Kisambi Tours.

Good local company
4/5

I would recommend Kisambi as a local tour guide for Kilimanjaro and Safari.

It feels good that the money goes directly to a local company with local employees.

The management and tour guides were excellent at communication and leadership.

Fantastic Mr Meru hike
5/5

Wonderful experience on a 4 day hike of Mt Meru. Matthew is the ultimate guide .... professional, punctual, informative and fun to be with. He and his great support team made the hike a real pleasure, and without their support the summit would not have been possible. However, we did summit and we totally enjoyed the hike. Kisambi were very reliable and everything ran like clockwork. Highly recommended.

Great overall experience from local people
5/5

We climbed Mt Kilimanjaro with Kisambi. Jerry, our main guide, and his crew, Anthony and KD were great all along. They helped us overcome all our fears along the way, supported us when we needed them and most important, managed to get all 5 of us at the top, healthy and happy! If you want to experience the climb with a local crew and exceptional local porters Kisambi is your operator. Thank you guys for being there for us and making this unique experience an unforgettable one!

Amazing experience for both Safari, as well as Kilimanjaro climb.
5/5

In particularly, we wanted to book with a Tanzanian tour operator, so ended up at Kisambi tours, which was recommended to us by a friend. From the beginning onwards, Elisante was very helpful in discussing the possibilities for our tight schedule, and provided us with travel itineraries for all options. The communication beforehand was very smooth, making the preparations upon arrival in Moshi very pleasant. Upon arrival at the bus stop, we were picked up and since then, it felt like an 'adventurous all-inclusive holiday to never forget'. Both the climb as well as the safari were private (I think this is most often the case).

We started with a 7 day Lemosho Kilimanjaro hike, in which we were accompanied by our guides Rama and Amani. The guides were super friendly, and knowledgable. The porters (8) made sure to arrive at the camp earlier than we did, in order to be able to change clothes immediately, or sit on the camping chair. It was nice to see that the porters and guides really team up (they always works together in this composition).
We were truly amazed by the food that was prepared during the climb, especially considering the limited utilities. Upon arrival, hot water was provided for water/hot chocolate/ tea, accompanied by popcorn. When possible, the chef prepared a warm lunch halfway. In the evening, dinner started with soup, and always fruit as dessert. Whereas I could overcome the 'toilets' at the campsites, looking back: my friend would have paid an additional fee to have a portable toilet along.

After the climb, we were dropped off at our hotel to get a hot shower and rest for a bit. The next morning we were picked up by Gabrielli for our next adventure: a 3-day safari in Tarangire, Ngorongoro crater and lake Manyara. Gabrielli was very relaxed, knowledgeable and respectful towards the animals. Especially his attitude towards the animals: 'We'll just wait here for a bit and they will come to us: you'll see', made him a really good guide, since in our opinion other safari vans could be very intrusive towards the wildlife.

All in all, our experience was really good and we would totally recommend Kisambi to anyone planning to go to Tanzania.

Unforgettable Safari experience
5/5

We spent five fantastic days on safari between Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Everything was well organized, and the lodges offered a great balance between comfort and authenticity.
A special mention goes to our guide, Deiter. He was incredibly kind, professional, and an excellent driver. Spending time with him made the experience even more special. Not only did he always ensure our safety and take care of our needs, but he also helped us connect with local customs and traditions.
Highly recommended!

Unforgettable honeymoon safari
5/5

We had an unforgettable safari experience thanks to Kisambi tours. Elisante was easily reachable and very responsive while preparing our trip, ensuring to tailor it to our needs.
Our guide Dieter has a perfect knowledge of all the parks we visited and we got to see the big five and so much more thanks to him.
I highly recommend working with them for your next safari !

Hezron best Safari Guide
5/5

From Italy we organized a couple's trip entrusted entirely to the Kisambi company. We were accompanied every day by HEZRON, an expert guide, always active and tireless, he explained to us everything we were seeing and the animals we encountered during the Safari. Thanks to his eyesight and knowledge of the parks (Serengeti-Ngorongoro-Tarangite) we were able to observe the BIG 5 very easily, as well as some moments of life of even rare animals. I recommend his company Kisambi to everyone because they are very reliable and precise, obviously as a guide for the safari I highly recommend HEZRON! It was a magnificent experience that we will always carry in our hearts. PS: don't just call him Hezorn but HEZRON king of the parks
