Making our safari the best
We took a safari during low season, so there wore less animals and less turist. Our accommodation were nice, very quiet and relaxing and good food. The guide try very hard to show all the animals and we learn alot from the driver. Very nice experience!

Great staff who made our trip a life long memory
In a nutshell, everything went according to plan and expectations: great service and follow up from Kihindo tours (William and Winnie); extra support to retreive lost luggage; fantastic and awesome days on safaris both in Mikumi and Nyerere, incl walking- and boat safaris with local guides; and two charming lodges who both made us feel «like home».
A special thank you to our knowledgeable guide, William.

Great staff and an excellent value.
Saw tons of wildlife! Wonderful and knowledgeable guides and drivers. Bastian lodge is great. Long drive, but with rest stop and decent food. Highly recommended package. Good value for the money.

Great safari with a lot of interesting information about animals and the Tanzanian culture.
Communications before departure of the safari went great through whatsapp, they responded really quick and with clear answers to my questions. Also the iternity was very clear and nice. We felt very comfortable during the safari. The guide and driver were great company. The car was amazing. We were with the 2 of us so we had all the space, that was very relaxing. The drive to Mikumi was long (6 hours) but nice. Enought to see during the drive. And when you nearly reach Mikumi NP gate, you can already see some animals like baboons.
Overall, we had a great safari with Kihindo Tours and Safaris and I would defenitely recommend.

Great safari with a good guide
We spent 3 days in Selous with Isaya : safari by boat then a full day in the park and walking safari. All was very well organised : Isaya (and Francky) came and pick us at our hôtel in Morogoro and then we went to Selous. We slept at Mloka Lodge with Isaya and Francky : this lodge is very great. Safari was also great : we saw a lot of animals specially girafe and one léopard. Isaya gave us a lot of informations about animals and his country, it was very interesting.
We spent 3 good days with them.

Quick answers, fine contact, sympathic and good driver and guide
Fine safari to Mikumi National Park over the weekend. The communication with Isaya was easy and quick and our driver and guide, Mr Peter, brought us safe from Dar to Mikumi and back again. Many useful informations.
The cottages in the park were rather basic, but ok. The food was not ok.

Horrible, be careful, it doesn't deliver the service you pay for.
Be careful, they don't provide the services you pay for. The conditions we paid for were not what they offered us once we were there. The water service, supposedly free, was a lie; they made us pay for it after the experience was over. The vehicle for the safari was completely different from the one you see in the pictures before we paid for the safari (the condition of the vehicle left much to be desired, and the one we booked was closed on the sides and open on top, and at no point did they provide us with what we paid for). You pay for a guide, and in our case, he didn't speak to us at all during the entire trip, nor did he offer us water all day (when, in theory, you're paying for a guide and for water during the trip). The only time he spoke to us more fluently was at the end of the safari to tell us his name and show us a QR code to rate him, in an aggressive way, as if we absolutely had to give him a good rating. On our first day visiting the Maasai village, we waited for over an hour, and when we finally arrived, they didn't even apologize. The food service was very poor; when we arrived for lunch, we were given a sandwich... They always under-served us. And they offered no solution. We want to claim a refund, but they haven't responded to any of our messages. We will not recommend Kihindo Tours to anyone we know.

I felt scammed
We felt scammed. The conditions we paid for weren't what they offered us. Water wasn't free, and the car wasn't the same as in the photos (it was broken all over). The guide spoke only the bare minimum and didn't offer us water during the safari. He even deigned to tell us his name at the end so we could write a review. He arrived over an hour late for one of the excursions, and there wasn't even an apology. You're always hungry at mealtimes; a sandwich and that's it. Their solution? None. They don't answer any of our messages.

Posted on Oct 20, 2025Dear Bea,
We are sorry to hear that your experience did not fully meet your expectations. However, we would like to clarify a few important points:
Water was provided in the car throughout the safari, as it is always included in our packages.
Regarding the vehicle, our itineraries always mention three types of cars used during the trip:
1. Transfer car (7 seats with air-conditioning)
2. Closed safari jeep with pop-up roof
3. Open safari jeep for game drives
You did not specify your preference for a closed jeep before or during the booking. The request for a closed jeep was made only on the last day, when it was unfortunately too late to make the change.
Concerning the food, we did not receive any report from you during the trip. If you had informed our office, we would have contacted the hotel immediately to make sure you received additional food or a better meal arrangement.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your feedback, which helps us improve our services for future guests.
Best regards,
Isaya John
