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.

Chief's Tours is always ready to turn your African dreams into reality. The fusion of technology and traditions of Tanzanian hospitality enables us to suit the fancies of everyone interested in Tanzania. As our tours are fully customizable, our safari company is committed to bringing the best safari experiences to the explorers of Tanzania.

Testimonials

From the first contact onward, the communication went really well. Chief Tours answered all our questions within less than one hour which was excellent as I have booked the tour with them short-notice and still had tons of questions.
We have been warmly welcomed in Moshi at the bus station by the owner and Ceo of Chief Tours, Adidas. He also took immediately care about one of our luggage which went missing in Nairobi.

His Team, especially Julius and Msafiri the two guides have so many experiences with guiding us slowly to the top of the mountain. Both of us made, it thanks to them.
The chef James was providing delicious meals out of his very simple kitchen every day. We could not stop eating and gained actually some weight at the mountain.
The waitress, as well as some porters, taught us some Swahili words which were really great.
If my friends or family would ask me for a recommendation, I definitely would recommend Chief Tours for the Kili hike. They will be in good hands.

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!

Amazing experience!

We found Chief Tours while researching our Lemosho trek up Kilimanjaro. While training at home, my wife experienced an injury and we were not able to continue with the trek. However, Adidas was kind enough to transfer our deposit to a 5-day safari tour and we are so glad we did! It was an experience of a lifetime. Our driver, Shirima, was incredibly knowledgeable, went above and beyond to show us the best of the parks, and was just a genuinely nice guy! The only thing as wonderful as the safari experience was getting to know Shirima!

The safari itself took us through 4 parks, each unique in their own way. We saw countless animals and seeing them in their natural habitat was surreal. Shirima was able to spot things we couldn't possibly have seen. (Lions, elephants, wildebeest, buffalo, cheetahs, zebra, giraffes, baboons, and we were lucky to see 5 of the hard to spot leopards!)

We were lucky enough to be in the Serengeti as the 'great migration' of wildebeests were taking place! It was amazing to see hundreds of thousands of them stampede together in herds through the plains. Truly amazing nature.

The accommodations were comfortable, clean, safe, and to stay within the Serengeti was an experience in itself with all the amazing sounds you hear at night! The food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner was delicious and also plenty of food!

We compared prices for both the trek and safaris with many other tour companies and Chief Tours was always the better price by a significant amount.

Our experience with Chief Tours from beginning to end was a wonderful, professional, safe and inspirational one. We highly recommend Adidas and his team for your trekking or safari needs!

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!
