Unforgettable Cultural Experience, Safari in Arusha National Park and Trekking on Mt. Kilimanjaro - I had an incredible experience visiting Tanzania with Afrishare. The director of the company, Ibra, helped us to coordinate hiking Mount Kilimanjaro, a safari in Arusha National Park, and a month-long course on Landscape Restoration. Ibra taught us cultural lessons and did an impeccable job of selecting host families and making sure we were comfortable with them. Each day he went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to have an excellent learning environment. Ibra is especially good at sharing his positive attitude and coordinating logistics with many stakeholders. We were also able to spend two days on safari in Arusha National Park. It was a magical experience as we were able to go on a walking safari and get very close to giraffes, water buffalo, and flamingos! After our course ended, thanks to Ibra, we were also able to plan a hiking excursion up Mount Kilimanjaro. Ibra selected a team of professional and well-trained guides to accompany us on our journey. We were able to summit and see marvelous views during our trek up the mountain. The accommodations and food on the mountain were incredible as well and surpassed my expectations. Afrishare helped to make my time in Tanzania a wonderful and unforgettable experience. I highly recommend working with Ibra and his team at Afrishare to plan your next adventure in Tanzania!

Wonderful Kilimanjaro hike! - My friends and I hiked the Marangu Route (5 days) up Kilimanjaro through Afrishare and had a wonderful experience! The food was excellent, the accomodations were comfortable, and with the help of our experienced guides and a great team of porters, we made it to the summit. We felt safe and well-supported throughout our journey. The director of Afrishare, Ibra Mkwizu, was a particularly stellar host who made our experience in Tanzania welcoming and stress-free. He coordinated every aspect of our hike, including transportation and lodging on either end. Ibra sent us a driver to pick us up from Arusha, hosted us at his own home for breakfast, personally worked with us to get every piece of gear we needed and advise us on what we should pack, gave us a place to safely store the rest of our luggage, and dropped us off with our crew to begin the hike. When we got off the trail, he again hosted us for a home-cooked lunch, provided us with a room to shower, and dropped us off at the airport. We never had to worry about logistics while Ibra was taking care of us. In addition, Ibra acted as our logistics coordinator while we spent three weeks in Moshi and Arusha for a college geography course. He took care of everything — park fees, transportation, preparing host families for us to stay with, packing lunches for our days out in the field, and much more. Ibra traveled with us every day to make sure we had everything we needed to explore the Kilimanjaro region. He took on these responsibilities in addition to his normal work directing Afrishare, and did a wonderful job. I would recommend Afrishare to anyone hoping to travel to Tanzania — for a Kilimanjaro hike, safari, or anything else!

The best safari guide I have ever experienced - Excellent staff, food was better than what we are used to at home. Just an amazing experience. We were able to do the trek in four days and this is thanks to Afrishare's crew. Highly recommend.

Amazing and well worth the money - We loved the 5 day Marangu route up to the summit of Kilimanjaro. The guides were patient, caring, and often asked how everyone was doing. They went at a nice easy pace and slowed down if we asked them to, and if we wanted to quicken the pace they were fine with that too. The food prepared by the chef was always deicious, and more than enough at each meal, and the porters were strong and sturdy and carried the essentials. THe hut accommodateions consisted of bunkbeds with mattresses and pillows, and were warm and cozy and had electric lights in them. All members of the team were polite, friendly and had the answers to any questions we had. I would definitely book with Afrishare again on our next trip here!
