Magical week !
A HUGE thank you to the Zanzi Family, and especially to Justin and Charles and the whole team for this timeless week on Kilimanjaro. Everyone was very attentive to ensure our trek went as smoothly as possible, I'm leaving with stars in my eyes. Hakuna Matata ❤️

Excellent experience
Me and my husband chose the five days tour to Materuni waterfalls, Tarangire national park, Ngorongoro and Manyara lake. It was more than amazing. We saw lions, elephants, zebras and so many other wild animals passed near to our safari car.
We are so satisfied with the drivers- guides, the organisation, the interest for our experience, we were in contact every day with the manager, Honest, and he was very helpful on every request. Special thanks to 'George of the jungle' our guide to Materuni waterfalls that he was a perfect guide. In general these people made our experience so unique. We definitely will choose again Zanzi trekking the next time we would visit Tanzania. Guys keep up the good job!

Great experience with Zanzi
We chose Zanzi after getting 3 quotes. It was the best price and had the best configuration of parks and time in Zanzibar. They were easy to deal with in the lead up to the trip and they were flexible, allowing us to switch a night in Zanzibar for an extra night to do Lake Manyara. The tour itself was great, we saw lots of animals. I wouldn't recommend Lake Manyara, there are no longer lions in trees or flamingos as advertised, just the occasional elephant and some baboons (that's not Zanzi's fault, just how it is). The accommodation was all great. Our tour guide, Ishmael, was very knowledgable and knew his way around the game parks. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Zanzi

Great experience
I had a 7 amazing days of safari with an incredible guide through the park of Tanzania. I strongly recommend this tour operator and to visit Serengeti Park
He loves his country and job and worked hard to make sure we saw every animal possible!
We had a marvelous time. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide/driver than Johnny Jackson. He watched over us well. He worked hard to make sure that we saw as many animals as possible, but never rushed when we were watching and taking pictures! The variety and number of animals was amazing.

Friendly crew - reliable tour operator
We went climbing Kilimanjaro on the 7-day Lemosho route with Zanzi Trekking and had a successful climb to the summit. We were happy to find that Zanzi Trekking had a budget option which allowed us to save a decent amount of money compared to other companies we looked at, while at the same time including all the necessary elements for a comfortable Kili climb. Even though we booked the trip last minute, there was no issue. Booking was easy: we made an international bank transfer and they confirmed the trip upon seeing the proof of payment. Zanzi Trekking were flexible and fast at responding. As a bonus, they threw in a couple of sleeping mats at no charge – thank you!
Justin, our main guide, was very friendly and attentive to our needs. It was clear he had our best interest at heart and wanted us to have a good experience. We were also accompanied by Lazaro, our assistant guide, a true Kilimanjaro legend who had been climbing the mountain since 1981. Together they made a very good team. Justin was great at telling stories about his many years climbing Kili and very knowledgeable about the mountain. Lazaro had an infectious positive attitude and showed great patience with us when we needed time to rest, put on an extra layer of clothes, or take pictures.
Our cook, Dastan, made some hearty and tasty dishes to keep our energy levels high during the climb. He also made sure we had something fresh (fruit/vegetables) at every meal - even on the last days on the mountain. Our porters, Kelvin, Pius, Elimokozi, Dominik, Mathew and Shedi (Shedrak), did their absolute best to keep our stuff dry even when pitching the tent in the rain. They seemed to always be in a good mood.
All in all, we had a great experience climbing Kilimanjaro with Zanzi Trekking.

Fantastic experience!!!
It was the most amazing experience ever! The whole Zanzi trekking team is fantastic, Honest followed us from our first day in Tanzania, he came to our hotel to explain everything about the Safari we were going to do and at the end of the days he came back to toast with us to this fantastic experience.
I was very skeptical at the beginning because a friend of mine had had a bad experience (scam) with another companion but they were special, they reassured me and helped me with the whole organization of the trip right from the start. Very helpful and kind.
The lodges they booked for the nights in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro are truly spectacular.
I really recommend their community for your Safari or Kilimanjaro climb
