Kayce B2024-12-10 Thank you, Chief's Tours, Thank you, Chief's Tours, for an unforgettable Marangu Route trek! The 6-day journey was filled with stunning scenery and well-planned itineraries. The rainforest on Day 1 was magical, and the changing terrain as we ascended made every day unique. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, ensuring we acclimatized properly and stayed motivated. The highlight was, of course, reaching Uhuru Peak at sunrise. The hut accommodations and delicious meals made the experience even better. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide me! Alistair S2024-11-30 Quality service and experience Our safari tour with Chief's Tours was very enjoyable. From the beginning of the tour we realized that the guides are very professional and very helpful. They took us to a place where we got to see different species of animals up close. We saw many animals including elephants, lions, giraffes. Our accommodation at the hotels after the safari was very comfortable and the quality of the food was very good. The tour was absolutely fantastic and I would love to travel with Chief's Tours again in the future. Maxim K2024-09-19 Amazing! Great trip to Kilimanjaro! Guys are very professional, always support, good meals, show us great places and the most important - we had reach the top under their manage, special thanks to Robert and Emanuel ! Fully recommended! Tyler P2024-08-07 6 Days - Machame Route I had a wonderful experience with Adidas and Chief Tours. He is a great communicator, and I felt very taken care of. My guide, Josephat, was personable and knowledgeable. The whole team was friendly, experienced, and positive. I’d definitely climb with them again! Grant2024-08-03 Awesome staff very responsible.. In August 2024, I climbed Kili with Chief Tours. First and foremost, everything was meticulously planned; according to Adidas, the owner, everything always happened when it was supposed to. Additionally, you can rent equipment straight from him, which is wonderful because I spontaneously decided to hike a mountain while traveling through Africa. I have nothing negative to say about this firm. Chief Tours is who I would definitely go up Kili with again. Rosarico C2024-08-03 A Memorable Safari! An amazing tour company! I had two safaris with my buddies, and we had an excellent driver/guide. Thanks to our guide's expertise, we were able to view incredible wild animals up close without disturbing them. After that, we started our incredible eight-day trip up Mount Kilimanjaro. From the warmth and assistance of our porters to the skill and understanding of our guides, our team demonstrated expertise from beginning to end. There were twice-daily health checks, amazing food, and these people knew everything there was to know about the mountain. With particular gratitude, Adidas for your courtesy. For the town pick-ups and drops, as well as to our brave driver Dilli. Nothing presented too much difficulty for. Eric klein2024-08-01 An amazing tour company! I joined the group with two other hikers, all by myself. The crew was really kind and amiable. Nicolas made a fantastic tour leader. He made the effort to see to it that everyone was alright. Joyce was the only female porter in our group. She was incredible. Adidas, the proprietor, was accommodating and very kind. Before heading to the airport, he drove us back to the motel where we had spent the night before the hike. Hemraj M2024-07-30 The best are Chife's Tours. I recently returned from Tanzania, where I had the time of my life. Amazing individuals. I was really fortunate to reserve both my safari and Mount Kilimanjaro with Chief's Tour. I felt like I was in the family because of how nicely Adidas and his family looked after me. Everything was expertly arranged. The folks at Adidas are fantastic! I had an amazing time climbing Kilimanjaro and going on a fantastic safari. The best are Chife's Tours. Phulishone2024-05-28 If at first you don’t succeeed try try again This saying has brought new meaning to me. In December (see previous review) my wife e and I weren’t able to complete a goal we have had for a a few years now. We left Kilimanjaro disappointed and a little defeated but quickly realized with some changes (including the time of year) and refocus we could succeed. On February Feb 11th we both sumitted the tallest free standing mountain in the world fighting mental and physical challenges along the way. We chose to use the same tour operator (Chiefs Tours) and guides as we did on our first attempt because they did everything right (including supporting our decision to turn around and not put us in further danger). They all possess an amazing spirit and a way at looking at life that compels you to want to be better. They use the saying pole pole over and over to remind you to go slowly (which is one of the keys to success to summit) along with some of their other sayings like drink water and eat (like a nagging mother) but your mind and body make different choices on the mountain and they are there to ensure you find success. What I learned on the way down is that pole pole applies to everything in life. If you take it slowly you will achieve all your goals. I don’t think I can adequately describe in words the experience. That is something each person needs to decide if it’s for them and do. I can say, time of year makes a huge difference as our first attempt was during the rainy season while we had what I considered perfect weather in February. I can also say that it truly takes a team (one team one dream, one dream one team was something we would repeat often together). Our guides, Jackson and Frank, porters and chef all played a huge role in our success and I in awe of the jobs they have and the lifetime memories they help so many make. Jackson literally carried me down a portion of the mountain because my legs just stopped doing what my brain wanted them to. They push when they have to and listen when they need to. We are also trying to spread organ donation awareness. Being a living organ donor doesn’t mean you can’t still chase your dreams and find success in either achieving them or learning from coming up short. But it does give someone else the chance to try to achieve their’s. So please consider being a living organ donor and at the very least share stories of people looking for an organ donation on your socials. Phulishone2023-12-22 Chief’s Tours is the right choice for your Tanzania adventures! Our trip to Kilimanjaro was 4 years in the making and Chiefs Tours supported us the entire time up until a difficult decision but there is summit in our future and I can’t wait to do it with chiefs!4 years ago I watched a video about climbing Kili and decided it was something I wanted to do. I started reaching out to a few well reviewed companies and Chiefs tours was the most responsive and reasonably priced.Our planning got interrupted by some surgeries and covid but the entire time adidas (owner/operator of chiefs) always was responsive and willing to adjust with our schedule.We finally made it a reality this December. We were greeted at the airport after realizing one of our bags didn’t make it. Adidas took our lost baggage ticket and said this was his problem now. Ended up our bag went on to Zanzibar and adidas had it back at our lodge later that night!The lodge we stayed at (kilele) was comfortable and perfect for before and after our climb. We were served wonderful food and drinks by cheerful and helpful staff.That day, adidas and our guides met us at the lodge to discuss our climb and answer any of our final questions. They checked our gear to ensure we had what we would need to be successful.The next morning the team took us to pick up some gear we were renting and to get the porters and head to the market to get the supplies we would need. We booked a 6 day lemosho route. Our fitness level is pretty high and we ski at altitude so felt this was a good fit for us.Day 1 was hiked almost entirely in rain, given it was still part of the rainy season and we were in the rain forest zone. This wasn’t a surprise. A failure in our dry bag however caused my wife’s clothes and her sleeping bag to get wet.Unfortunately even with the best effort of our guides and porters we weren’t able to get things dried out and after a night at Shira II where it was colder we made the difficult decision to turn back.Our guides (Jackson and frank) and porters tried everything they could to allow us to continue on but ultimately supported our decision to hike back and made all the arrangements for us to do this.The entire team works so hard to make sure you are taken care of and happy and they take such pride in their work. It is infectious.Our meals prepared by Jeff were wonderful and mindful of the kind of food we needed for each day.Every night our health was checked and we discussed what the next day would entail.We are already discussing with chiefs coming back to finish what we started in 2024, so you can see how confident we are in this company and its dedicated employees.I highly recommend chiefs for your kilininjaro climb!
