The entire experience was incredibly well-organized from start to finish. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about wildlife and nature. The accommodations exceeded expectations—clean, comfortable, and perfectly located near key attractions. We saw the Big Five, experienced breathtaking landscapes, and felt safe and well-cared for throughout the trip. The itinerary was thou (Read More)ghtfully planned with the right balance of game drives and rest time.
There were a few long drives between parks, but that’s to be expected on a safari. A little more communication ahead of time about daily schedules would have been helpful.

My wife and I did 3 day safari with Kilisherpas Travel. It included the Tarangire National Park, a stay at the Octagon Lodge, and then the Ngorongoro Crater. It. Was. Amazing. Our guide, Erick, spoke (Read More)excellent English and was able to find all the animals we possibly could have hoped for!!!! We even got to see a pack of lions feeding on a recently killed water buffalo while the hyenas waited at a distance for their turn. Rhinos, Giraffes, Zebra, Water Buffalo, Wildebeest, Wart Hogs, Lions, Hyenas, Jackels, Baboons, Monkeys, Elephants, Ostrich, Impala, Gazelle, Hippos Mongoose, Eagles, many colorful birds, and lots more i probably can't remember!
It was great! They use really nice land cruisers with pop up tops and extremely nice Swarovski binoculars! Lunch was nice and the lodge we stayed at was amazing with a cool little Irish bar with a fireplace we sat next to.
If you want a quick safari to see basically everything, the 3 day kilisherpas one is a must. We did it following a week on the mountain, and it was just the right amount of time. Im sure all the guides are good, but ask for Erick and know you'll 100% be in good hands! He had many friends he could talk to on the radio to alert him to where animals were spotted. It was the main reason we were some of the first to get to the lions after they'd killed the water buffalo, and also able to find two rhinos!
Our group had an amazing experience with Gabriel, Frank and the rest of the Kilisherpas team. Our guides made sure everyone felt comfortable with the pace and provided lots of information about the en (Read More)vironment as we ascended. The camping experience, from daily meals to morning coffee to tent setup, was handled with great care and attention to detail.
The group kept things lively on a challenging summit day while also ensuring our safety the entire time. Everyone made us feel so welcome and worked so hard to make our experience unforgettable. We are so grateful to everyone on our amazing team and cannot recommend them enough!!
I cannot overstate how impressed I am with Kilisherpas. It’s been two months since my trek, and I still can’t get the trip out of my head. Everything about this company was incredible—they were organi (Read More)zed, responsive, accommodating, and highly professional yet warm. I especially can’t speak highly enough of our guides, Gilbert and Gabriel. I have never met two more patient human beings in my life! Their patience and complete investment in our success and well-being was effortless, natural, and deeply genuine. This was the trip of a lifetime, and I’m so grateful we chose Kilisherpas
Had an amazing day trip to Lake Duluti with Kilisherpas Travel! The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and everything was well-organized—from the scenic hike around the lake to the peaceful canoe r (Read More)ide. Beautiful nature, great service, and a very relaxing experience. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Arusha!
