Successful Summit- Mt. Kilimanjaro! - In February 2025, I checked off a major bucket list item by summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro. This trip was planned by ZAFS Tours, which came highly recommended by a few friends. From the planning stage until we left Tanzania, communication and follow-up with Zainab and Burhan remained top-notch. Our private group of three was guided and looked after by 15 experienced ZAFS support staff members, including two professional and knowledgeable guides, 11 diligent and cheerful porters, and two highly skilled kitchen staff. The two guides—Yasin and Gabriel—motivated us every step of the way, pacing us “Pole Pole” so we could acclimate easily, and even sang inspirational songs during the toughest portion of our hike—the summit night! Our highly nutritious meals included delicious soups, an array of healthy carbs for energy, and even steak on a couple of occasions! During our seven days on the mountain, we were very well looked after. Our ZAFS support team made sure we were healthy, well-fed, and well-hydrated for our journey to the “Roof of Africa.” At the conclusion of our hike, our group was personally visited by Zainab, one of the owners of the company, who gave each member a congratulatory token gift. ZAFS came highly recommended, and I am continuing to pass that recommendation forward to anyone who would like to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro. It might seem like a daunting task, but under the guidance of ZAFS, it became much easier. Thank you for all the memories!

Highly recommend ZAFS for Kilimanjaro hike! - I recently completed the adventure of a lifetime—summiting Mt. Kilimanjaro with Zafs Tours and I can't recommend them enough! From start to finish, every detail was flawlessly handled, making the experience both enjoyable and successful. The guides and porters were incredibly professional, always ensuring our safety and well-being. They monitored our health at every stage, offering valuable advice to help us acclimate properly. The level of customer service was outstanding—friendly, supportive, and always going the extra mile. The food was another highlight! The well-thought-out nutritional menus provided the energy needed for the climb, with delicious and balanced meals every day. The clean and comfortable tents made resting at camp a pleasure, giving us the recovery we needed for each day's trek. Next up - a great African safari with ZAFS!

Highly recommend - I never in my wildest dreams thought I would summit Kilimanjaro, but Zafs made it happen. They had everything planned - knowledgeable guides, talented chefs, and porters who constantly checked in on our safety. I don't think I would have made my dream come true without the Zafs team. Huzaifa was great at responding throughout the process and made Tanzania easy to fall in love with. I hope you chose them to make memories, too!

Kilimanjaro - ZAFS was fantastic with me. I initially booked with another company, but turned out that I was the only sign up. ZAFS offered to let me join on of their groups and I'm glad I did. My flight even got delayed so I missed the start but they arranged for me to catch up with my group and continue the trek. Their team of streak guides, tent staff, porters are really hard working and make the entire experience easy for the trekkers. They're quite experienced, patient and put in extra to make sure everyone is doing okay and keeps going forward. I'd highly recommend signing up with them if you're considering climbing Kilimanjaro. In fact, I've already referred them to a few friends.

Best Mountain Climbing Trip Ever - Hakuna matata… Kilimanjaro climbing was not easy for me. But Zafs guide and poters didn’t give up on me. They walked through my pace and made sure I was at the next camp with my friends. They took the best of the best care for us. Kept us safe and at their top priority. Waking us up, serving us hot water, feeding us hot meals also serving to make sure we are eating well. Our tents were setup perfectly. We had hot water bags given to us on arrival to ease our pain. List can go on how comfortable we were. They became family, selfless and hardworking ppl. At Zafs they keep their crew at their best to ensure that their clients are getting best. Once again thank you ZAFs and the all the 46members to make our trip most fun and memorable. If you want to have a memorable adventure book through ZAFs.

First mountain climbing experience - We chose Zafs for our girls trip to climb Kilimanjaro via Machame route and we couldn’t have chosen a better company. Their service is top notch and they tried their best to accommodate everything we asked for. From experienced guides to amazing porters, delicious fresh food prepared by their chef to clean portable toilets, our needs were met with utmost care so that we could focus on our climb. Their experienced guides encouraged us throughout to accomplish our goal to summit even when things may have looked difficult. We returned home with many wonderful memories, success and new bonds that we will cherish forever. Asante sana ( thank you) ZAFS!
