4 Days Private Arusha Safari Tour

Our safari with Kiliclimb was exceptional! Huge thanks goes to our guide Bakari. His ability to spot animals (whilst driving) was unbelievable, as was his knowledge of the 3 parks we visited and the animals within them. On top of this he was friendly, charismatic and patient. He is a credit to Kiliclimb Africa Safaris. We also had such a lovely welcome from the Kiliclimb team. They arrived with gifts and had clearly mentioned to the hotel that we were on our honeymoon. This made it extra special. The hotel (Farm of Dreams) had delicious food and a wonderful vibe. Ngorongoro Crater was our favourite location. The close encounters with a family of lions and an enormous elephant will live with us for a lifetime. Thank you for such a special experience.

Our 3 days on this safari have been absolutely perfect! Our guide was incredibly passionate and went above and beyond every single day to ensure we could see as many animals as possible. Even after the game drives ended in the evening, he selflessly dedicated his time to share fascinating stories about Tanzania and the Masai history with us. He was always smiling and kept us so happy throughout the entire trip. Also, the food was excellent and suited our Korean palates perfectly; they accommodated all our special food requests without hesitation. He even helped us take amazing photos! We are leaving with unforgettable memories, and we cannot thank the team enough for this phenomenal experience. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful time with Kiliclimb Africa Safari with Logan as our guide. Had great wildlife viewing at Serengeti and Ngorongoro caldera, gained in knowledge at Olduvai gorge and had a culturally enriching experience visiting the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes, all in the span of only 4 days.

24년 11월 중순에 3박 4일 일정으로 프라이빗, 미드레인지 세렝게티 사파리 투어를 진행했습니다. 업체를 선정함에 있어 원하는 조건, 예산 범위, 희망하는 숙소를 정해서 동시에 20군데 정도의 업체로부터 견적을 받았습니다. 트립어드바이져와 safaribooking.com 의 평점이 낮은 업체, 평점이 좋은 업체라도 낮은 점수 리뷰(1, 2점)가 있는 업체는 제외하였습니다. 그 중, 까다로운 질문에도 친절하고 신속하게 응대하며, 가장 합리적인 가격을 제시한 곳이 kiliclimb african safari 입니다. 이 업체를 이용하며 좋았던 점을 두서 없이 나열하자면, 수십개의 질문이 이어져도 모두 친절하고, 빠르게 회신하였습니다. 예약 전의 소통 조차 매끄럽지 않다면 여행 중 문제가 생겼을 때 소통이 좋을리 없을 것 같아서 소통이 잘 되는 것을 중요하게 생각했는데 매우 만족스러웠습니다. 투명한 예약 프로세스가 좋았습니다. 다른 업체 후기에서 사전 예약한 숙소와 다른 곳에서 머물렀다는 이야기도 본 적이 있었는데, 이 곳의 경우 빠르게 숙소를 홀드한 인보이스를 증빙으로 보내주며 신뢰할 수 있게 해주었고, 덕분에 안심하고 예약을 진행할 수 있었습니다. (혹시라도 인보이스 없이 가격을 후려치는 업체는 조심하는게 좋을 것 같아요) 예약할 때 이야기 했던 금액 외에 추가금액은 일절 없었습니다. 가이드 Terry는 무척 친근하고 좋았습니다. 빅5 동물을 모두 본 것은 당연하고, 운이 좋았는지 자주보기까지 했습니다. 시야도 좋아서 우리 눈에 보이지 않는 동물들을 찾아 알려주기도 하고, 동물들에 대한 설명도 충분히 해주었어요. 주변 가이드들과 소통도 원활해 끊임없이 동물을 찾아주어 좋았습니다. 3박 4일 동안 개인 시간 외에는 계속 함께 지내다보니 가이드의 소프트 스킬이 중요하다고 생각하는데 Terry와 함께 지내는 시간이 즐겁고 편안했습니다. 서로의 언어를 가르쳐주기도 하고, Terry도 우리의 언어인 한국어를 곧잘 따라했어요. 여행 말미에는 가자, 그만, 좋아 정도는 쉽게 하더라고요. 숙소 3곳 중 1곳은 원하는 곳이 있어 지정하였고, 나머지 2곳은 업체에서 예산에 맞게 선정해주었는데 3곳 모두 매우 만족스러웠습니다. 직접 지정한 곳(KUBU)은 말할 필요도 없고, 업체에서 선정한 곳도 모두 깨끗했고, 온수 샤워에 전혀 문제가 없었으며, 모기장도 완벽했고, 전기도 문제 없었고, 식사도 좋았습니다. 직원들의 서비스도 매우 만족스러웠습니다. 차량은 공원 내에서 흔하게 보이는 차량과 동일했습니다. 지붕을 올려서 열 수 있었고, 차량 내에 USB-A 타입 충전 단자와 냉장고가 있었고, 냉장고에는 물, 소다, 와인, 맥주가 가득했습니다. 저희가 허니문으로 방문했다보니 준비한 선물, 차량에 스티커, 숙소에서의 소소한 이벤트 등을 준비해주어 그 정성이 고맙기도 했고요. 큰 금액의 돈을 지불해야하는 만큼 사전에 많은 고민과 서칭, 의사소통이 필요했지만 결과적으로는 아주 만족스러운 선택이었습니다. 모든 과정에서 충분히 케어받고 있으며 사파리를 진행하는 동안에도 매일 Terry를 통해 투어가 잘 진행 되고 있는지 확인하는 모습도 좋았습니다. 업체를 고민하고 있다면, 이 업체를 추천해보고 싶습니다! 저희처럼 깐깐한 사람들도 충분히 만족한 업체입니다! We recently went on a 4-day private mid-range Serengeti safari tour in mid-November 2024. To choose the right operator, we outlined our preferences, budget, and desired accommodations and requested quotes from about 20 different companies simultaneously. We eliminated operators with low ratings on TripAdvisor and SafariBooking.com, as well as those with poor reviews (1- or 2-star ratings), even if their overall ratings were high. Among them, the operator that stood out was **Kiliclimb African Safari**, thanks to their prompt and courteous responses to all of our detailed questions and their competitive pricing. Here are some highlights of our experience with them: 1. **Exceptional Communication** They responded to dozens of questions with patience, clarity, and speed. Good communication is vital, especially when unforeseen issues might arise during the trip, and Kiliclimb excelled in this area, even before booking. 2. **Transparent Booking Process** We appreciated their transparency throughout the booking process. In some reviews of other companies, I had read about travelers being placed in accommodations other than the ones they had reserved. However, Kiliclimb promptly provided invoices to confirm that our desired accommodations were secured, which reassured us and allowed us to proceed with confidence. (Tip: Be cautious of operators offering suspiciously low prices without proper booking confirmations!) There were no hidden fees or unexpected charges; the total cost matched the initial quote exactly. 3. **Amazing Guide: Terry** Our guide, Terry, was fantastic—both friendly and professional. Not only did we see all of the Big Five animals, but we also saw many of them multiple times, which felt like incredible luck. Terry's keen eyesight helped us spot animals we would’ve missed otherwise, and he explained their behaviors in detail. He communicated well with other guides, ensuring a steady flow of exciting animal encounters. Spending almost every moment of the 4 days together, we appreciated Terry’s excellent soft skills. He made the experience comfortable and enjoyable, even teaching us some Swahili while picking up bits of Korean from us. By the end of the trip, he could confidently say words like "Let's go," "Stop," and "Good!" in Korean. 4. **Impressive Accommodations** Of the three lodges we stayed at, one was specifically requested by us (KUBU), and the other two were chosen by the operator within our budget. All three exceeded our expectations. - The accommodations were clean and well-maintained. - Hot showers worked perfectly. - Mosquito nets were properly set up. - Electricity was reliable. - Meals were delicious. - Staff at all lodges provided excellent service. 5. **Well-Equipped Safari Vehicle** The safari vehicle was similar to others commonly seen in the parks, with a pop-up roof for optimal game viewing. Inside, it featured USB-A charging ports and a refrigerator stocked with water, soda, wine, and beer, which was a thoughtful touch. 6. **Thoughtful Honeymoon Touches** As we were on our honeymoon, the operator added lovely details such as small gifts, custom stickers on the vehicle, and special surprises at the lodges, which made us feel truly cared for. Given the significant amount of money involved, we spent considerable time researching, asking questions, and weighing options. In the end, we were completely satisfied with our decision. Throughout the process, we felt well-cared for, and during the safari itself, Terry checked in daily to ensure everything was running smoothly, which added an extra layer of comfort. If you’re looking for a reliable operator, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiliclimb African Safari. Even for detail-oriented travelers like us, they proved to be an excellent choice!

We completed a 4 days Safari and a 2 days Ol Doinyo Lengai. We organised it 2 days before the day of the safari. I never thought they would be so amazing to organise quickly and so perfectly. The communication was flawless, everyday they checked on us, before during and even after the trip. So I would really recommend them as it's easy to organise with them. Now what to say about the actual Safari adventure... AMAZING... We saw lots of different animals. Yes we were lucky but the driver made it happen. He did an fantastic job to make sure our day was full and diverse. Can't think of a better Safari. Thanks Kiliclimb!
