Rabea S2026-03-14Noch nie so umsorgt gefรผhlt Die Safari war echt toll! Wir haben alle big five gesehen und generell war es ein tollen Abenteuer. Aufgrund der Regenzeit hatten wir ein bisschen mit รberflutungen zu kรคmpfen, dessen sollte man sich bewusst sein, trotzdem hat alles am Ende geklappt und die Tiere haben wir gerade deswegen in riesigen Herden gesehen. Die Organisation war mehr als gut, man hat uns immer direkt auf WhatsApp geantwortet und als ich danach meine AirPods vergessen hatte in einem der camps wurden die mir sogar nach Sansibar gebracht, also besser geht eigentlich nicht. Ich wรผrde jedem empfehlen dort zu buchen! Campen in Zelten ist natรผrlich etwas mehr low Budget aber auch eine Erfahrung, die lodges hingegen sind top.Verified
ATownExplorer2026-03-12Happy is the BEST safari organizer - great experience. First let me start by typing that Happy, the young lady who organizes everything, is great to work with. She pays attention to detail and makes sure everything is in order. I contacted a number of safari companies, looking for the best deal I and mentioned I'd be celebrating my birthday. Happy was the only one to respond with a thoughtful message. Small details go a long way. As we negotiated the pricing, she even offered me a cake. That was really sweet of her. Emmanuel picked us up from the Arusha airport ON TIME and took us to our hotel. Happy arrived within minutes to give a briefing, take payment and give me the cake she promised :-). The following morning, Adrian picked us up in the safari jeep and after picking up a few more passengers we were on our way. The whole experience from beginning to end was great. Our cook, Richard, prepared some really delicious meals. Him and Adrian always made sure we were okay. I'd definitely recommend you use Kilipath. We'll be back with a group of friends! Asante sanaVerified
Franca L2026-03-08Abenteuerliche Safari wรคhrend der Regenzeit Es war eine sehr abenteuerliche Safari mit vielen Erlebnissen und tollen Tieren. Wir haben alle Big Fives gesehen und noch viel mehr. Wenn man in der Regenzeit reist, sollte man sich allerdings darauf vorbereiten, dass einige Straรen รผberflutet sein kรถnnen und man diese nicht passieren kann. Im Groรen und Ganzen war es trotzdem eine tolle Tour.Verified
andrzej s2026-03-01Bardzo niesamowite doลwiadczenie Polecam Super safari zgodnie z otrzymanym opisem 5 dni w wersji budลผetowej czyli 2 noclegi w namiotach w parku Serengeti a 2 w super pokojach. Bardzo miลy i sympatyczny przewodnik Mathiu.warunki noclegowe i wyzywienie bez zarzutu. Widzieliลmy wszelkie moลผliwe zwierzฤta ,dodatkowo ostatni dzieล mielimy do dyspozycji odkryty samochรณd, super wraลผenie. Lot balonem niezapomniane wraลผenie. Dalibyลmy 5 gwiazdek ale z powodu iลผ organizator o godz 10 wieczorem zmieniล godzinฤ odbioru na 6.40 rano ,gdzie szybciej uzgadnialiลmy wyjazd o 8-9 i jeszcze to potwierdziliลmy dzieล szybciej w ich biurze (adres ich biura jest nie aktualny nie da siฤ go nigdzie znaleลบฤ) a musieliลmy zwrรณciฤ wypoลผyczone auto .Caลa noc nie przespana ze stresu .Potwierdzam ลผe rano postarali siฤ to wszystko ogarnฤ ฤ i wyszลo Ok . Druga drobna sprawa w opisie jest dodatkowa opลata tip 10 dolarรณw dziennie ,czyli 100 za caลoลฤ. Nam policzyli 140 , bo dodatkowo 40 dla kucharza ? Jeszcze jedna sprawa jeลบdziliลmy z innym biurem podrรณลผy, czyli Kilipatch jest poลrednikiem ? Na koniec bardzo dziฤkujemy za zorganizowanie caลoลci.

Junyi Z2026-02-22Great services The communications are wonderful, Lydia answered all my questions with rapid reply (even through email). The transfer guy also provide excellent service. I asked him to bring me to Masai market after Safari ends, and he did with no hesitation. Even more, he gave the companion with me in the market as I am a solo female traveller. Safati trip it self worth the price. Regardless that I booked for a group trip instead of private one, the pickup time was comaratively long. It usually took 2-3 hours before the safari actually start, and usually the game drive began around 9am, so if you are looking for hunting scenes, private trip may fit you better.Verified
evi b2026-02-14Unvergessliche Solo-Safari โ Tolle Menschen, groรartige Stimmung! Ich bin als alleinreisende Frau auf Safari gegangen und hรคtte mir keine bessere Erfahrung wรผnschen kรถnnen. Von Anfang an war alles gut organisiert, entspannt und ich habe mich jederzeit sicher gefรผhlt. Unser Guide war einfach groรartig โ kompetent, humorvoll, geduldig und mit echter Leidenschaft fรผr die Tierwelt. Man hat gemerkt, dass er seinen Job liebt. Er hat alle Fragen beantwortet, sich Zeit genommen und dafรผr gesorgt, dass wir die besten Momente und Ausblicke erleben konnten. Auch die Menschen im Auto waren einfach super. Obwohl wir aus verschiedenen Lรคndern kamen, hatten wir sofort eine richtig gute Stimmung. Viel gelacht, gemeinsam Tiere bestaunt und spannende Gesprรคche gefรผhrt โ es hat sich รผberhaupt nicht wie โallein reisenโ angefรผhlt. Die Landschaften waren atemberaubend, die Tierbeobachtungen beeindruckend und die Erinnerungen unbezahlbar. Als Alleinreisende habe ich mich jederzeit wohl und integriert gefรผhlt. Ich kann diese Safari von Herzen weiterempfehlen โ es war jede Sekunde wert.Verified

Damien B2026-02-02Very good safari road trip Great value for money. The organization by Kilipath was perfect: they were available, responsive, and everything ran on schedule. The team is extremely motivated. The jeep was spacious and comfortable, with power outlets to charge phones (although they didnโt always work). Our guide, David, was an excellent driver and did everything he could to make sure we were satisfied. He was very friendly and always in a great mood. The choice of lodges was excellent: spacious and luxurious. Lunches were very well organized, especially when eaten out in the middle of nature. However, we do not recommend the tent camp if you are looking for a minimum level of comfort (toilets, electricity). It also lacked atmosphere, even though there were many guests. Some light entertainment or welcome activity from our arrival around 4 p.m. until the evening would have been appreciated. Small bonus (or a big one in our opinion!): Kilipath gifted us a wonderful T-shirt!Verified
Joaquรญn B2026-01-24Great experience The 4-day safari was excellent, the guides were superb and respectful of nature. The accommodations were excellent. Prisca de Kilipath always made sure we had the best experience.Verified
Radim Slezรกk2026-01-20A great experience for the whole family. We booked a three-day stay with Kilipath African Safari. Lydia was very helpful and accommodating from start to finish in planning the trip and arranging all the arrangements. After arriving in Arusha, we visited Tarangire on the first day, and the next day we drove to the Ngorongoro Crater with the same driver, Mayunga. We were happy that we were able to observe wild animals such as elephants, zebras, giraffes, leopards, lions, hippos, flamingos, buffaloes and others in their natural environment of beautiful nature. We were also lucky and saw the big five, although the rhino was very far away, at least that's what the driver told us. :) The driver was very communicative and was able to answer our questions about not only the animals, but also the lives of the local people, interesting facts from history and some information about tribal conflicts. On the third day, together with our guides Lydia and Geofrey, we visited the Materuni waterfall with a breathtaking view of Kilimanjaro. During the ride to the waterfall, we used the time to chat with our guides and learned a lot of interesting information about the life and customs of the people of Tanzania. After swimming in the waterfall, we visited a local village for lunch with a demonstration of coffee processing, including roasting and subsequent tasting. At our request, the guides took us to a shop with truly beautiful goods, where we bought local pictures in the Tinga tinga style. :) All services provided and arranged by Kilipath African Safari were at a professional level and we recommend this trip to the mainland.
