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

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!

Successful and Amazing Kilimanjaro Trip!

We used Chief's Tours to book our Kilimanjaro trip. It was the most AWESOME and AMAZING experience ever!. What a trip!

Adidas and wife Upendo were so good, polite and accommodating. After our experience they arranged us to stay at the Selig Hotel which is only a few minutes from Chief's Tours; transportation to and from the hotel, including the airport. The day we got off the plane we started our hike in the afternoon.

We summited on New Year's day in 2018. We took the Machame route which took us 5 days to reach the top, and a day and a half to reach to the bottom. The guides, Mohammad and Freddy were so so awesome. I truly miss those guys, also need to mention the waiter and cook and the porters. The guides ensured our safety and success to reach the summit and descent. I'm not that fast of a hiker, but they were understanding and set the pace for the climb.

They not only gave us plenty of food for every meal but also brought a lot of snacks, energy bars, and candy, etc. Also after our climb, Chief's Tours arranged us for the Chagga Culture and Coffee, and waterfall tours that are also excellent!

Thank Chief's Tours for everything!

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!

I made an excellent decision by choosing to Climb Kilimanjaro with Chief Tours for the following four reasons:

First, in regards to "social responsibility" and the treatment of the crew (food and lodging), after spending 6 days climbing with Chief Tours, I can testify that Chief Tours meets or exceeds other tour operators.

Second, unlike many of the Kilimanjaro operators, Chief Tours is a Tanzanian company. Therefore, instead of losing a majority of the profit to a head office in Europe, America, or Australia, the profit goes toward developing the local community by way of better wages for Chief Tours employees.

Third, Octait (my guide) was exceptional. He knew all of the short-cuts and ensured that I was well rested and hydrated at all times.

Fourth, every day I was served a wide array of fresh and delicious foods. The foods included: Beef, Fish, Chicken, Mango, Pineapple, Avocado, Cassava, and many more.

I would definitely recommend Chief's Tours!

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!
