Destinations

The status of Tanzania safari parks as a primary destination for wildlife explorers has been reflected in the expeditions of The National Geographic, The Discovery, and The Animal Planet. Indeed, Northern Tanzanian parks are fantastic - Serengeti offers unique lion safaris and The Great Migration, Tarangire is famous for its fascinating elephant safaris, and Ngorongoro enjoys the reputation of a place with the highest density of wild animals, Lake Manyara with its flocks of pink flamingos and Mahali and Gombe parks with the largest population of chimpanzees are also must-have pieces to the collection of any avid traveler. Together with many other protected areas along our country, undoubtedly Tanzania is the best place for completing your full African wildlife safaris list.

Testimonials

Excellent service and reasonable prices!

I climbed Kilimanjaro with Chiefs Tours after referring to many operators. Everything was excellent. At first, we planned to climb by Marangu route. But Adidas proposed to climb by Rongai route. We agreed and did not regret that. As for me, this route was easier then Marangu and we successfully got the summit.

Our climbing was well-organized. Every time when we came to the next base camp our tents were set and our luggage was inside. We always got warm water for washing and water for drinking. The food was as good as it was possible in the mountains. Adidas and other guides: Washington, Alan, Muhammad supported and motivated us. Without their help, it was impossible to get to the summit. Well done, high-quality service and great corporate culture. I wish all we best to Adidas and his team.

I recommend Chiefs Tours as the company with excellent service and reasonable prices.

Kathleen DouglasKiev, Ukraine

We have recently come back from a holiday in Tanzania. Our father has been to visit Tanzania on many occasions and has had many trips organized by a local guide named Adidas who is the owner of the Chiefs tours. Adidas and Shiriwa (driver) took care of every little detail and were a well run professionally and friendly local buisness. Both Adidas and Shiriwa had an amazing range of local knowledge. Everything was planned exceptionally well from our trips.

The day before Adidas and Shiriwa came to meet us to talk about the plan for the next few days, we just told them all the trips that we wanted to do and they planned the rest. They asked us about food likes so they could make us a packed lunch for the trip. The following morning, they picked us up at 6:15 am to start our trip to Lake Manyara National Park. After Lake Manyara, we went to a campsite called Heaven Nature Safari Campsite and Lodge. This campsite was recommended by Adidas and we weren't disappointed. We were greatly welcomed by all staffs and the food was delicious. Adidas and Shiriwa sat up chatting with us that night, we talked about the differences in both our cultures.

The next morning we headed to Ngorongoro Crater where we saw all of the "big five". The road down to the crater was bit teeth clenching but Shiriwa is an excellent driver so put us at ease. After the Ngorongoro crater, we went to visit the Masai Village which was so impressive.

The final tour that we did was the coffee tour. It was just outsite of Moshi. Here we leant how coffee is handmade. We were even involved in making our own coffee and then sat down to drink it. The boys who taught us about how they make coffee were very enthusiastic and lovely. Throughout the trip with both Adidas and Shiriwa, nothing seemed to be a flaw Thank you for an excellent trip that we will never forget. I can't recommend Chief's Tours anymore.

Thank you so much!

An ethically credible company, with the friendliest and best staff!

My sister and I summitted Kilimanjaro thanks to Adidas and all of the Chiefs Tours crew. We had the trip of a lifetime! We both arrived from different countries on different days and Adidas made sure that the logistics were all taken care of and our arrivals and transfers were seamless.

As for Kilimanjaro, we couldn't have been happier with the experience and the team that we had. We took the Lemosho Route and summited a day early, reducing the climb from 7 days to 6, as we did not suffer from altitude sickness and were ready to go a day ahead of schedule. We organized a day trip to Arusha Hot Springs through Chiefs Tours for the extra day then returned to Moshi, all were so lovely.

I would definitely recommend Chiefs Tours to anyone considering Kilimanjaro, our guides (Msafiri and Heaven) and our entire team (particularly Juma) were amazing. They made sure all of our needs and interests were met at every step of the way, with massive smiles! Also, we really noted and liked that they all were wearing appropriate and proper gear and equipment for the climb which many other porters were not.

Adidas is running an ethically credible company, with the friendliest and best staff. Asante sana!

Without Chief's Tour Supporting team, it was impossible for me to get to the top of Kilimanjaro. Because it was physically and mentally challenging, everyone tried to take care of me as I was the only women in the group full of big men. From the first moment meeting Adidas and the team in town, I already had a very good impression and feeling about the memorable trip.
Thank you so much, the main guide Msafiri for your nice care as a father to daughter, the assistant guide Heaven for his great patience and encouragement, the chef Jay for his tasty food, the porter Godfrey for saving my life when I got serious altitude sickness, and the other porters for their positivity and energy in spite of their extremely hard job!
The mountain not only brought us an unforgettable experience, it also gave me good friendships and more motivation to come back to Tanzania where I left a big part of my heart.
Travel with Chief's Tours and you'll understand why the company and Adidas himself are well respected by local residents thanks to their contribution to local community. I wish you all the best: best health, best luck and best spirit!

Definitely book with Chiefs Tours!

Our group of 9 friends had been planning to climb Kilimanjaro for a year. We did a lot of research in terms of tour companies and prices. We found Chiefs Tours to be very competitive and decided to book a 7-day Lemosho route trip with them. This was due to the success rate of this route and because it is one of the most scenics.

Adidas from the first contact was most helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Everything was jointly planned and agreed. From the moment we stepped off the plane at Kilimanjaro (at 1:15 in the morning!) to the moment we stepped back on it, Adidas and his team were on hand to guide us all the way.

Every part of our trip was taken care of from a pre-hike 1-day safari to accommodation before and after the hike to even getting his driver to take us to a restaurant for a post-hike meal!

Adidas employs a professional team who ensure you have an enjoyable, comfortable trek (well, as comfortable as a hike up Kili can be). If it was not for the support of his staff, some members of our group would not have made it to the peak. We were so happy with Chiefs Tours that another group of our friends will be doing the hike next year. Thanks you Adidas and team for a trip of a life time and Hakuna Matata!
