Best experience, best price, best guide, best tour ever… - We had the most amazing tour organized by Topy Tours! 1 day tour through Tarangire NP, 1 day Crater Ngorongoro, 1 day Lake Manyara and 1 day Materuni waterfall with coffee experience in Kilimanjaro area. Two adults and one child 5 years old. We booked a private tour, 4 days from Poland. The experience during the booking process was super good and Jackson answering all our questions fast.
Very serious and reliable organization. We want to say a big thank you specially to our guide, Ally, such a great personality, excellent safari guide with lots of info on the wildlife, nature, culture, food, history of the region. We were so happy and would recommend him as a safari guide 100%.
Thank you to Ally, Benedict and Jackson who made the stay unforgettable and took great care of us for 5 days.
If you're looking for a company to go on a safari, we really recommend safari with Topy Tours.

Perfect day with great experiences and a top-class guide - This is our first time in Tanzania and we went on a multi-day safari before the tour. The tour was perfect for getting back into the swing of things after so many days in the car and enjoying nature.
We were with Ben. He was the perfect guide for us. He adapted the plan to our needs and gave us a wonderful day. He was very funny and open-minded. He also explained a lot about the region and its flora. Our lunch was the best meal we've had in Tanzania so far. We also really enjoyed the coffee tour. The local Justin was very patient with us and answered all of our questions. Who would have thought that we knew so little about our favorite hot drink? We were able to experience how coffee is processed in the village. The associated joy of life with singing and dancing infected us.
As if the day wasn't good enough, Ben even helped us get into a hotel in Moshi and buy bus tickets for our onward journey.
For us, the tour was an absolute highlight, which was perfected by this wonderful person at our side. We felt comfortable and well looked after every second.

Make your own coffee - We recommend this trip. Easy and nice communication with the operator.
The hike to the waterfall was really nice. Our guide has a lot of knowledge about the plants and fruits. Afterwards we participated in making our coffee. It was so much fun! We had a great time.
Our driver Seth was also a funny and honest guy who made sure we had a good day.

Opportunity to walk on Kilamanjaro without having to climb it! Also great to see village and coffee making. - This was an amazing day. We got the opportunity to walk on Kilamanjaro without actually climbing it.
The visit to the village was very interesting - very friendly and great lunch. Enjoyed seeing how coffee was made. Need to be reasonably fit to walk to the waterfall as hilly but I made it. Recommend the trip. Jackson at Topy was very organised and helpful. Goody the guide from the village was brilliant.

Low key, but interesting activity with wonderful guide - Our guide, Joel, was a stellar guy. While the waterfall and coffee plantation are not mindblowing, they are both interesting and fun activities that make for a welcome change. The drive and scenery are pleasant and nice, and the stop for Korean food over lunch was a surprising but great twist to the day. Well recommended!

Top tour with Topy Tour - As a female single traveller it was very important to me to be hosted by a reliable tour operator that is reacting on my wishes and concerns, and preferably also in a timely manner. With him and his team I felt safe, and experienced a very well organised and customised three days Safari - and this to a reasonable price. I can only recommend Jackson and his team!

Great - Great experience. Loved the waterfalls. The hike to them was muddy and slippery wich I kinda enjoyed. After that we went to the coffee farm where the "Mamma’s" cleaned our shoes while we ate food and had an amazing lesson about the coffee making process.

Great day trip exploring the nature and culture in and around Mt Kilimanjaro - Really enjoyable trek to the waterfalls - takes about 45 mins and normal shoes are fine but I wouldn't recommend flip flops. The hot springs are really not 'hot' like others I've been to but beautiful.
The coffee tour was the highlight, the local families were so welcoming and got us involved in the whole process. Lovely hot lunch made by them too.
Our local guide was nice and took lots of photos for us. The only thing we didn't like was she was trying to sell us extras at every opportunity; bananas, bracelets, 4ft framed canvases... be firm and you'll have a great day
