A dream safari made perfect by Kiliclimb’s caring team and our amazing guide Terry.
Seeing wild animals in the Serengeti has been my lifelong dream. When my husband said we could go there for our honeymoon, I basically planned the whole trip and brought him along with me.
Choosing the safari company was the most important decision for me, so I spent a lot of time researching. I discovered Kiliclimb Africa Safaris through a Korean travel blog and contacted them for a quote. They offered several itinerary options and the pricing was very reasonable, which made me feel comfortable booking with them.
When we arrived at Kilimanjaro Airport, a Kiliclimb driver was already waiting for us and took us directly to our hotel in Arusha. After such a long international flight, it was really nice not having to figure out transportation or explain directions.
At the hotel, Moses from the Kiliclimb team came to personally welcome us and explain the upcoming itinerary. He also gave us gifts including a Maasai blanket, a hat, and a Kiliclimb t-shirt. It was such a thoughtful welcome.
From Arusha we flew by small plane to Serengeti and met our guide Terry. Because we were on our honeymoon, he even prepared champagne and put a “Just Married” tire cover on the safari vehicle. It was a small gesture but it made the experience feel even more special.
During the safari we saw so many animals: lions, elephants, buffalo, cheetahs, monkeys, impalas and even a leopard. Seeing them in the wild with my own eyes felt surreal.
One of the most unforgettable moments happened at night in our tent camp. We could hear lions walking outside the tent. It was a little scary but also incredibly exciting, because it made the Serengeti feel so real.
I also enjoyed learning some Swahili during the trip. Terry happily taught us words and phrases and it made the experience even more fun.
The Kiliclimb office team also checked on us every day to make sure everything was going well and that we were comfortable with the guide.
This safari truly fulfilled a lifelong dream for me. It became one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life and I would absolutely recommend Kiliclimb Africa Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Serengeti.

Professional team, incredible wildlife sightings, and the most caring safari guide we could imagine.
We discovered Kiliclimb Africa Safaris through a Korean travel blogger and contacted them for a quote. They offered several itinerary options and gave us a very reasonable proposal, which made us feel confident about booking with them.
When we arrived at Kilimanjaro Airport in Tanzania, a Kiliclimb driver was already waiting to pick us up and take us directly to our hotel in Arusha. We didn’t have to worry about finding a taxi, explaining directions, or contacting the agency after arrival. Everything was arranged smoothly and we could simply relax after a long flight.
At the hotel, Moses personally came to welcome us. He explained our upcoming itinerary and even brought us welcome gifts – a Maasai blanket, a hat, and a Kiliclimb t-shirt. The quality of the gifts was surprisingly good and it immediately showed how much care they put into their guests.
We flew from Arusha to Serengeti by small plane, and that’s where we finally met our guide, Terry. He greeted us with champagne and even installed a “Just Married” tire cover on the back of our safari vehicle for our honeymoon. It was such a small but thoughtful gesture, and it made the entire safari feel even more special.
Terry took incredible care of us throughout the trip. He always searched for the best picnic spots and clearly had great relationships with staff at the lodges and park areas, which made the experience even smoother.
The most important part of a safari is wildlife sightings, and we saw an incredible amount of animals. We saw leopards three times, including one eating its prey. We watched a lioness nursing her cubs right next to our vehicle. We also saw four lionesses working together to hunt wildebeest – and even watched them walk back after a failed hunt.
Rhinos are known to be one of the hardest animals to see in Serengeti, but Terry managed to show us rhinos three times. One time we even saw five rhinos together in the distance.
We also saw huge buffalo herds, elephants eating grass and playing with their trunks, and groups of elephants crossing roads and rivers together. Other animals we encountered included cheetahs, dik-diks, warthogs, snakes, vultures, monkeys, impalas, and topis.
Seeing wildlife is partly luck, but the guide’s skill is extremely important. Even if an animal is nearby, most people wouldn’t notice it without an experienced guide. Terry had an incredible eye. At one point he spotted only the tail of a leopard hidden in a tree and managed to guide us to see the entire animal.
I asked many questions during the safari – about animals, insects, and nature – and Terry answered everything with deep knowledge and enthusiasm.
Meanwhile, the Kiliclimb office team checked in with us every day. They asked how we were feeling, whether everything was going well with the guide, and if we needed anything. Whenever we arrived at a lodge or destination, we received a message confirming everything was okay. It really felt like they truly cared.
Moses told us on the first day to think of Kiliclimb as family, and throughout the trip they truly treated us that way.
Terry also took many photos and videos for us, and even joined our funny Instagram reel moments. Those small interactions created wonderful memories.
I know many Korean travelers carefully research safari companies and share their experiences. The fact that so many Koreans choose Kiliclimb speaks for the quality of their service.
I strongly recommend Kiliclimb Africa Safaris. Our honeymoon safari became one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives thanks to them.
Fantastic honeymoon in Africa!
We had a fantastic 7 day safari with Kiliclimb for our honeymoon!
We were greeted at the airport by our tour coordinator, Janeth, who sang us a welcome song. At our hotel the day before our safari we met our guide Ombeni and went through our itinerary.
The next day our guide Ombeni met us at the hotel with a surprise! The owners of Kiliclimb greeted us with flowers, and wrapped us in Maasai outfit to send us on our way to Central Serengeti. On our first day there we saw a lot of animals but were able to spot Lions, a Cheetah (our guide spotted it in the middle of the plain very far away) and Leopards all with their babies. The next day we took a game drive in the central area and saw more animals, some new to us!
From there we drove to the north to see the great migration and river crossing of wildebeests and zebras. Our first day at the river watching and waiting we finally saw 2 huge crossings of hundreds of animals and even saw one get eaten by a crocodile. It was worth the wait! The next day we went on an early morning hot air balloon ride which was amazing! We had a champagne brunch in the bush and were able to chat and relax with other guests.
After two days in the north, we headed down to Ngorongoro Crater where we did a game drive. We saw a big lion pride including one eating a wildebeest, we saw more zebras, a ton of water buffalo, flamingos and hippos and then we were able to spot 2 rhinos in the forested area. For our last day we went to Lake Manyara which is a beautiful area and saw lots of monkeys, elephants, birds and even a giraffe.
All of the lodges and camps we stayed at were top notch with fantastic staff, good food and rooms. Our hot lunches were delicious and yummy every day. The Kiliclimb team made this honeymoon unforgettable and incredibly special. They were responsive, communicative and welcoming.

Honeymoon Bliss: A Perfect Tanzanian Adventure with Kiliclimb African Safaris
For our honeymoon, we set our hearts on exploring Tanzania’s stunning landscapes, from the heights of Kilimanjaro to the wildlife-rich plains of the Serengeti, and ending with a week of relaxation in Zanzibar. However, planning such an extensive and once-in-a-lifetime trip felt daunting. We knew it was a significant investment, and finding the right company to trust with our dream seemed overwhelming. That’s when we discovered Kiliclimb African Safaris—and everything fell into place.
From the moment we first connected with the owners, Esther and Moses, we were impressed by their genuine warmth, deep local knowledge, and commitment to making our honeymoon extraordinary. They made planning our trip a breeze, offering expert advice and ensuring that our itinerary was perfectly tailored to our desires, timeframe, and budget. Their communication was seamless, and they consistently added personal touches that made us feel like we were in the best hands.
Our adventure began with a 5-day trek up Mount Kilimanjaro (Marangu route). Baraka, our guide for the trek, was not only knowledgeable and skilled but also incredibly supportive. He made sure we were well-prepared and motivated, helping us reach the summit—a truly unforgettable start to our journey.
After conquering Kilimanjaro, we flew to the Serengeti, where Kiliclimb’s exceptional service continued to shine. When we arrived, we felt like royalty and were amazed to see our names printed on the side of the Land cruiser and the vehicle’s wheel covers proudly proclaimed “Honeymooners on Board,” adding a special touch that made us feel like VIPs. Esther and Moses had carefully selected the best lodges in the Serengeti, where we enjoyed incredible comfort and luxury. Every detail was meticulously planned—they made sure that each hotel knew it was our honeymoon, and as a result, we were treated to surprises like flowers on our bed and complimentary bottles of wine.
To cap off our adventure, we spent a week in Zanzibar, where we relaxed and enjoyed the stunning beaches—a perfect end to an incredible honeymoon.
We cannot express enough how grateful we are to Kiliclimb African Safaris for making our honeymoon a stress-free, memorable, and magical experience. They went above and beyond in every way, from the personal touches to the seamless coordination of every detail. If you’re looking for a company that will make your Tanzanian adventure as perfect as ours, look no further than Kiliclimb. We wholeheartedly recommend their services, kindness, and unwavering dedication to making dreams come true.

Great experience, great team
When we decided to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, we wanted to go with a local Tanzanian company. Our research led us to Kiliclimb, and we were very happy with our experience with the Kiliclimb Team. There was friendly, helpful, concise and timely communication with Janeth as we planned our trip from afar. They created a WhatsApp group so everyone could exchange as we planned our safari and the Kilimanjaro trek. The team answered all our questions withing hours if not minutes. They also provided brief updates to my wife while we were on the trek. We met with Moses from the Kiliclimb office and Baraka, the lead guide, the day before we started our adventure who briefed us on the climb and together we looked at all our gear to ensure that we were well equipped for the climb. The next day we went from Arusha to the trailhead with the entire team (guide, assistant guide, cook, porters) and started the trek. This was a team effort and everyone on the Kiliclimb Team supported us throughout our journey. The 15 member team was great, each member focused on our safety, comfort, and wellbeing. The team’s work is very difficult, besides carrying our equipment, their equipment, the camp setup, and food/water, there was a “runner” who was off straight away every morning to ensure we would have a good place at the camps. When we arrived at the camps, our tent and a dining tent were in place. The cook and waiter ensured that we had hot drinks on the trail and when we arrived. Considering the logistics of food preparation en route, there was variety on the menu, and the meals were very good. The soups at lunch and dinner were especially good, they immediately took away the cold edge of the rainy days. They spoiled us at night with hot water bottles for our sleeping bags, this was a wonderful surprise! The guides were excellent. They provided information on the mountain, flora, weather, and history of Kilimanjaro and the surrounding area. The team’s welcome to the mountain was special. The guide and the team sang call and response, which was infectious, we danced in the party atmosphere as well with others from surrounding campsites who joined the fun. We felt the genuine warmth of the Tanzanian culture from each member of the team. Considering we were caught in an early rainy season and were soaked most of the time, this never dampened the spirit of the team. The Lomosho trail was challenging and the guides ensured our safety during the ascends (and descends!) on the slippery trails and while scrambling Barranco Wall. Don’t miss kissing rock at the wall! The guides planned the climb to summit so that we arrived at sunrise; the timing was perfect. It was cold, but the sky was clear and we had panoramic views from the summit. The snow, glacier, surrounding volcanic landscape with the rising sun was surreal. The eight days helped with acclimation; we didn’t have any issues arriving at the summit. The last day was bittersweet; we were coming down (literally) and didn’t want our adventure to end. We sang and danced in the morning before we left camp, the team’s spirit carried us down the mountain. We were very happy that we went with a local company and were able to support the people of Tanzania. We appreciated the professionalism, but also the transparency of the Kiliclimb team and being able to give tips to each member of the team individually, which does not necessarily happen with other companies.
One dream, one team!
We highly recommend a trek with the Kiliclimb Team.

This is the good one.
A very good experience. I highly recommend it. The guide was able to get very close to the animals and knew every secret spot, both for finding them and for eating afterward. Moses was always checking on us to make sure we were okay. The food was very good, so we felt safe and healthy, and we felt completely taken care of. Moses gave us some lovely gifts, so it was much better than we expected. We saw many more animals than we anticipated, and without feeling scared. It was very, very good. Thank you, Kiliclimb.
A very nice experience. I fully recommend it. The guide was able to get very close to the animals and knew every hidden place to find them or even to have lunch. Moses was always checking on us to make sure we were okay. The food was very good, so we felt safe, healthy, and taken care of. Moses gave us gifts, so it was all over what we expected. We saw more animals than we ever imagined, and very close up without being afraid. Very, very nice. Thank you, Kiliclimb.

Professional and friendly.
It was our honeymoon
We took a private safari tour and it truly made the experience unforgettable. Our driver was incredibly knowledgeable — he had answers to every question, from the animals we saw to the plants and the landscape around us. It really felt like he knew the park and the nature deeply, including the best routes to take. What stood out most was how much he loved his job and how committed he was to making sure we saw as much wildlife as possible. His passion made the entire safari even more special

Amazing safari supported by an amazing team
This Tanzanian Safari was one of the best experiences ever, it has been on our bucket list for a while, but we never expected it to be as good as this!
The abundance of wildlife was breathtaking, the scale and expanse of the Serengeti a sight to behold, while the serene beauty and tranquility of Ngorongoro Crater was a memory that will last forever.
But best of all was the Kiliclimb team behind this once in a lifetime experience.
Sadi our guide was an absolute star, we feel blessed to have been assigned such a warm, friendly, helpful and skilled guide. Nothing was too much for him, and he really went the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed the best experience we could ever have wished for.
His ability to spot some of the more unique and elusive wildlife was verging on supernatural. His punctuality was spot on, and his experience at handling some of the rougher terrain that the Serengeti occasionally throws at you was confidence inspiring.
As if this wasn’t enough, the support from the Kiliclimb office via WhatsApp was second to none. The speed of response to any queries we had was literally minutes, sometimes even seconds! Special mention to Janeth for all her support and hard work, checking in with us on a daily basis to make sure we were happy and enjoying the safari.
The final mention goes to Ruth who was our contact in Zanzibar, and not only looked after our main luggage, but also organised our transfers.
All in all, we cannot fault the wonderful service we received from Kiliclimb, and would not hesitate to recommend them.
Incredibly well planned and executed climb up Mt Kilimanjaro. A trip of a lifetime!
If you’re looking for your next adventure then I HIGHLY recommend booking a safari or a trek up Mt Kilimanjaro with Kiliclimb Africa Safaris. Thanks to their incredible team our group of seven successfully summited Mt Kilimanjaro in Feb 2026.
Even though I’m not the most experienced hiker and got sick during the trip, I felt incredibly safe thanks to the leadership and expertise of our guides. They would consistently monitor our energy levels throughout the hike and made sure we had proper footing during steeper ascents.
As well, I want to thank our entire team that helped us throughout the journey. All the guides, chefs, camp managers, and porters exercised a tremendous amount of care in their job and worked efficiently to get camp up and running! Thank you for taking such good care of us 🐨♥️!!!
To conclude, if you’re looking for a fun, memorable trip filled with hiking, singing, and dancing (yes that’s right), then make sure you reach out to Moses from Kiliclimb African Safari’s. He runs a great team, and Kiliclimb African Safari’s is locally run and operated in Tanzania!
