EXCELLENTVerified Best Experience Ever !!!!! We booked our safari with killimajaro unforgettable. From start to finish we couldn't fault them. Frank arranged everything from our flights from Zanzibar to accommodation and parks. We was met from the airport, had our own driver Ben who stayed with us throughout our stay. He couldn't have gone out of his way anymore to make sure we had an amazing time. From the beautiful lunches and locations we stopped at, to making sure we got see all the amazing animals. There was a mini fridge with a constant supply of drinks on hand even a beer for the hubby😜 Our accommodation was also 5* from the pod we stayed in the mountains, the giraffes our neighbours. Then the luxury Retreat on our last night. We Was amazed by the hospitality at the hotel even lighting a fire in our room at nigh 🔥. Overall this has to be the best experience we have ever had.

And honestly, it was the best choice ever. Everything was just amazing. Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Ndutu, Serengeti and the Maasai experience all of it felt like a dream. No crowds, no traffic, no noise. Just nature, animals and peace. Sometimes on game drive we didn't see any other cars for hours. Just us, animals and the wild. It was fantastic.Our driver Jackson wow, what a guy. He was so good at finding animals, even from far away. We were like, where??? and he already saw lions or cheetahs hiding in the grass. He know so much, drive really well, always smiling, very kind and calm. We felt super safe and relaxed with him.And the places we stayed wow. Golden Safari Luxury Camp, Mvuli Ngorongoro Lodge, and Heart and Soul Lodge all of them were beautiful. Clean, comfy, nice food, lovely staff. We slept so good every night, listening to rain and animals outside. Felt like we were really in the wild but still with nice service.But Serengeti… that was next level. Like, really, we still can’t believe we were there. Every day was different, every day something new. Animals everywhere, big open land, so quiet, so beautiful. It’s hard to explain, but really it touched our hearts. Felt like we were living a dream.The Maasai visit also very special. We danced, we talked, we saw how they live. So different life, but they so friendly and warm. Was nice to see real culture like that.Big thanks to Kilimanjaro Unforgettable team. Everything was smooth from start to end. They helped us so much, answered all questions, made everything easy. This trip will stay with us forever.If anyone thinking about going safari go in the rain season, go with this team. Less people, green everywhere, animals still there, and the feeling so pure. We really recommend it. 100%.Unforgettable for real.Verified Absolutely unforgettable Trip Climbing Kilimanjaro was my big dream for many years. I keep thinking about it, watching videos, reading stories, and hoping one day I can do it too. But the first problem was, which company should I choose? I want to feel safe, confident, and happy in a group. I started sending messages to many companies, asking questions and checking what they offer.Then I found Kilimanjaro Unforgettable, and I felt something special. The way they answer me fast, the details they gave me, the preparation book, everything was very clear and professional. I liked how they care about small things and make everything feel easy. So I decided to go with them, and I can say now, this was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.We climbed the Machame Route in 7 days. From the first day, the team was amazing. Our guide Emma, he was not only professional, but also so kind, friendly, and always smiling. He helped us all the way, always checking if we are okay, if we need something, always positive. He felt like a big brother to everyone.The food on the mountain? Wow! I didn’t expect that. Our chef, Raster (Elia), cooked delicious meals every day. Hot soup, vegetables, rice, even pancakes in the morning. He made sure we eat well and have energy every day. It felt like magic to have that kind of food on the mountain.The porters what can I say? These people are heroes. They carry heavy bags, set up the tents, help with everything, and still have energy to smile, laugh, and make jokes. They really made the climb feel easier and more fun. Without them, we could never reach the top.Every day was different. The nature, the views, the weather, the challenge it was hard, yes, but it was also beautiful. We laughed a lot, we helped each other, we learned new things about ourselves. The last day, summit night, was emotional. Cold, dark, very hard but with the support of the team, I made it to the top. When I saw the sign at Uhuru Peak, I cried. It was not just the mountain, it was the dream coming true.Now when I think back, I feel proud and happy. These 7 days changed my life. I met great people, I pushed my limits, and I saw the most beautiful views in the world.Kilimanjaro Unforgettable is not just a name. They really make everything unforgettable. I want to thank Emma, Raster, and all the porters for making this dream possible. If someone is thinking about climbing Kilimanjaro, I say don’t wait, and go with this company. You will not regret it.Thank you, Kilimanjaro Unforgettable. You are the best!Verified The best 6 day climb to Kilimanjaro We recently climbed Kilimanjaro for six days through the Marango Route, and frankly, it was one of the best experiences of my life. We were with the Kilimanjaro Unforgettable, and everything was really well organized from start to finish.Our guide Emma and Casey were really great. They were very knowledgeable and friendly and always kept us safe and motivated. They were perfectly adjusted for climbing speed and were always encouraged, especially on hard days.The waitress Calvin was very friendly and helpful every day. He always smiled and welcomed us and helped us stay comfortable. Thanks to his service, the climbing experience felt more special.And I want to thank Chef Samuel, who didn't know how to cook such delicious food in the mountains. After a long day of climbing, his food gave us the energy to keep going.Of course, I am grateful to Porters. They were carrying all the equipment, moving, helping with all the preparations, working really hard, always showing positive energy. Without them, we would not have made this climb.If you are considering climbing Kilimanjaro, we recommend the Kilimanjaro Unforgettable 100%. With people like Imma, Casey, Calvin, Samuel, and the amazing Porter team, you'll have the best experience. We will never forget this experience!Verified Unforgettable Trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar We just finished our 8 days vacation in Tanzania and Zanzibar with Kilimanjaro Unforgettable Tour agency and it was an amazing experience ever.There are so many companies online, but we were lucky to choose this one.

The view from the top was like a dream. And when we went down into the crater, we saw so many animals-lions, elephants, zebras, and many more. We were just sitting in the car and animals walking so close to us. It was crazy, like watching National Geographic live!Also, one of the best part of our trip was meeting the Maasai people. We visited a Maasai village in Ngorongoro. They welcomed us with big smiles, showed us their dance, their houses, their life. Such kind and proud people. It was very nice to learn about their culture and how they live. It made our trip more special.Our safari guide David was super good. He knew everything about the animals and the parks. He could spot animals from so far, we were shocked! He told us so many stories and facts, and made our journey fun and full of knowledge. He really made our trip extra special.And let me talk about our stay in Ndutu. We stayed in a luxury tented camp there. Oh my God, it was BEAUTIFUL!
