Posted on Flavin FVerified Seven Days, One Mountain, Endless Memories Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is a dream for many, but achieving that dream with the right people beside you turns it into something unforgettable. From the moment we began our journey with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris, we knew we were in the best hands possible. This wasn't just a trek — it was a shared mission, a story written step by step with the most passionate, skilled, and heartwarming crew I could ever imagine.We were a team of 14 climbers, guided by the incredible Justine and Omary — two men whose knowledge, experience, and love for Kilimanjaro truly made this journey magical. Their leadership and motivation kept us strong, even when the altitude tested us. We felt safe, inspired, and fully supported every single day.Then there was Martin — not just a chef, but a culinary artist at high altitude. The meals he created gave us the strength and comfort we needed. We honestly couldn’t wait for dinner each day, and that says a lot on a mountain!The real heroes, though, were our amazing porters: Denis, Fadhili, Juma, Jose, Paulo, Amani, Ahadi, Ladi, Enock, and Gift. Watching them move with such strength and grace, always with a smile, was humbling. They carried the weight of our expedition — literally and emotionally — and always cheered us on. And Amosi, our wonderful server, brought warmth and joy to every mealtime. He had a way of making every meal feel like home, even at 4,000 meters.The organization by Tanzania Songbirds Safaris was flawless. From airport pickup to the summit and back, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine care. They even helped us with gear — some of which we were able to rent directly through them — and provided fantastic advice for traveling in Tanzania. They thought of everything, including small tips for our wider vacation that made the whole trip smooth and stress-free.Reaching the summit was a powerful moment, but what made it even more meaningful was the love, effort, and camaraderie of this crew who made it all possible. This isn’t just a guiding company — it’s a family, and they make you feel like part of it.If you're dreaming of climbing Kilimanjaro, don't think twice. Trust Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. They don’t just guide you up the mountain — they carry your spirit to the top. You’ll come down changed, and grateful forever for choosing the best team on the mountain.Posted on corrinamatthewsVerified Wonderful traditional experience This cooking class is a total traditional experience. Don’t expect a kitchen with bench tops and sinks let alone a stove. We cooked in a room with a low table two charcoal burners and a gas burner, a couple of large tubs and basic implements. Having said this Naima was amazing. Very organised and expert cooking skills. The timing of the huge meal we cooked was impeccable and it all came together in the end so well. I would have to say that it was one of the most delicious meals we have had so far in Tanzania.Israel was a wonderful guide in the markets and the food we purchased was so fresh and tasty. Highly recommend this class for a truly traditional experiencePosted on Xavier BVerified Incredible Climbing Kilimanjaro with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris for great 7 days Trekking Mount Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho Route was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives, and it was all made possible by the amazing team at Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. From the very first moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized. The team took care of every detail—from airport pickup to accommodations before and after the climb—making us feel completely at ease so we could focus on the journey ahead. Our guide, Lameck, was truly outstanding. His passion for Kilimanjaro, deep knowledge of the mountain, and genuine kindness set the tone for the entire trek. He was not just a guide, but a motivator, a friend, and a constant source of support. Every day, he checked in with us, explained the plan, and shared insights about the landscape, local culture, and the climb itself. The porters, cook, and assistant guides were equally incredible—cheerful, hardworking, and always ready to help with a smile.The Lemosho Route itself is breathtaking, offering changing landscapes each day, from lush rainforests to moorlands, alpine deserts, and finally the snowy summit. The 7-day itinerary gave us the right amount of time to acclimatize properly, and thanks to the care and pace set by Lameck and the team, we reached Uhuru Peak safely and successfully. Every camp was set up beautifully in advance, and the meals prepared by the cook were beyond our expectations—delicious, hearty, and exactly what we needed to stay energized.Tanzania Songbirds Safaris made our Kilimanjaro dream a reality with their professionalism, attention to detail, and warm hospitality. This wasn't just a tour—it was a life-changing adventure shared with people who truly care. If you’re thinking about climbing Kilimanjaro, we highly recommend doing it with this company. You’ll be in the best hands.Posted on Lucecita LopezVerified Reaching the Roof of Africa with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris Trekking Kilimanjaro had always been a dream, but nothing could have prepared me for the experience of those 7 days on the Lemosho Route. It was challenging, yes—but also utterly transformative. What made it all the more memorable was my guide, Denis, whose quiet strength and calm leadership helped turn the mountain into something conquerable.From the lush rainforest trails at Londorossi Gate to the alpine deserts above Shira Plateau, every day felt like stepping into a different world. The Lemosho route’s slower pace gave our small group time to acclimatize and really take in the surroundings—endless sky, the crunch of volcanic rock underfoot, and the surreal stillness of the high-altitude landscape. But it was summit night that truly defined the journey.We set out under a sky scattered with stars, bundled in layers, breaths short and heavy. The cold seeped into everything. There were moments when I thought about turning back. But Denis kept us moving, checking in quietly but firmly, reading our exhaustion better than we could ourselves. He seemed to know exactly when to push, when to pause, and when to simply say, “You’re stronger than you think.”At Stella Point, as the first light of dawn began to break, I cried. And when we finally stood at Uhuru Peak, the world spread out beneath us, it felt like something far greater than just reaching a summit—it was a return to self, to resilience, to belief.Descending felt like coming down from another planet. And though my legs were shot and my lips cracked from the altitude, I couldn’t stop smiling. Trekking Kilimanjaro via Lemosho was everything I’d hoped for—and more. But it was Denis who turned it into a life experience, not just a mountain. If you ever get the chance, go. And if you can, go with Denis. You’ll understand why the summit is only part of the story.Posted on Lina PVerified Lovely morning Very good experience! The best way to know town and Tanzanian culture. Our guide Gaudi was very kind and passionate. We were in good hands. Truly recommend this tour. Lots of things have been seen.Posted on Airto BVerified Songbirds made my dream come true It's truly a once in a lifetime experience with this local and beat company that operates Kilimanjaro climb, I'm so glad to choose this company and it's one of the decisions I made that I will never regret.My daughter and I planned Kilimanjaro for a long time and finally we met the best team led by our great guide James who was passionate about Kilimanjaro and Tanzania, James h is a motivational guide who makes sure you will reach Uhuru peak, the delicious food we had in the mountain make our energy of conquer Kili and thanks so much for the best chef Rashidi. Our Porters are an amazing team that helped us a lot.In short and summary of great service we had with Songbirds, I recommend this local company for anyone who are looking for Kilimanjaro trek.Posted on McAdams DVerified Conquering Kilimanjaro with heart and Guidance from David & Arnold. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route was truly the adventure of a lifetime, and I owe so much of that experience to the outstanding team at Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. From day one, our guides David and Arnold made us feel completely at ease with their professionalism, warmth, and deep knowledge of the mountain. The Lemosho route was stunning — remote and scenic, with each day offering a different landscape, from lush rainforest to alpine desert to the snow-capped summit.David and Arnold were more than just guides — they were motivators, problem-solvers, and friends. They checked our health twice a day, adjusted our pace to keep everyone safe, and never stopped encouraging us. On summit night, when the altitude really hit, it was Arnold’s calm guidance and David’s quiet strength that got us through the final push to Uhuru Peak. I can’t overstate how much their experience and care meant to us. The entire Songbirds team, from porters to cook, worked tirelessly to support us, and somehow always had a hot meal ready and smiles on their faces.I would recommend Tanzania Songbirds Safaris and especially David and Arnold without hesitation for anyone who is looking for the roof of Africa.Posted on Louis PVerified A true delicious taste of Tanzania food and best food market experience From the moment we were picked up at our hotel, our day of immersive Tanzanian culture began with warmth and excitement. Our guide, James, greeted us with a welcoming smile and a passion for sharing his heritage. He led us to the bustling heart of Arusha—the Central Food Market. This wasn’t just a walk through a market; James took the time to explain the origins and uses of countless ingredients, from exotic spices to fresh produce, revealing layers of culture behind every aroma and texture. We weren’t just observers—we were participants, tasting, smelling, and learning about the roots of Tanzanian cuisine through the people who grow and sell it.After the market tour, we were taken to a charming outdoor kitchen space, where we met our chef, Name, whose enthusiasm was contagious. The cooking class was hands-on, interactive, and deeply personal. We prepared two traditional Tanzanian dishes—both chosen for their cultural significance and rich flavors. The chef guided us through each step, sharing personal stories and techniques passed down through generations. The scent of simmering spices and freshly chopped herbs filled the air as we cooked, laughed, and learned together.Sitting down to enjoy the meal we had just prepared felt like a true celebration. Each bite was not only delicious but carried the story of the ingredients, the people, and the land. This wasn’t just a cooking class—it was a profound and joyful connection to the heart of Tanzania. It’s a memory we will carry for a lifetime, and we can’t thank James, Name, and the team enough for this incredible experience.Posted on KANYIKA TANZANIA TRAVELVerified Superb Tour This nice when you do this city tours from the local people to the local or mixed market where you buy some different staff for home.

When we first planned our trip to Tanzania, we knew we wanted something more than just a regular safari experience. We were looking for the kind of adventure that would stay with us forever, and that’s exactly what we got with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. From the moment we booked with them, everything felt personal, genuine, and incredibly well-organized. We spent three days exploring the vast beauty of Serengeti and the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, and there’s no doubt in my mind that we made the best choice by choosing this company.Our safari started with a warm welcome from our guide, Derick. It was immediately clear that Derick wasn’t just another guide; he was a passionate expert with a deep love for the land and its wildlife. He took the time to get to know us, asking about our interests and tailoring our safari to give us the best possible experience. As we drove into Serengeti, we were already captivated by the vast, endless plains and the promise of incredible wildlife sightings. Derick’s knowledge of the terrain and animals was astonishing, and he shared fascinating facts with us at every turn. Whether it was a lion relaxing in the shade or a herd of elephants making their way across the savannah, Derick’s expertise made every sighting feel even more special.Serengeti was everything we had dreamed of and more. Over the two days, we got to witness the wonders of the park—from watching cheetahs stalk their prey to marveling at the majestic wildebeest migration. Derick had an almost uncanny ability to predict where the animals would be, leading us to the perfect spots where we could get up close without disturbing them. Every moment felt like a rare gift, and we knew we were in good hands with someone who had years of experience guiding visitors through this magical place.On our final day, we made our way to Ngorongoro Crater, and once again, Derick’s calm and knowledgeable presence made the day feel seamless. The crater, with its lush landscape and diverse wildlife, was absolutely breathtaking. We saw rhinos, lions, zebras, and hippos—all in one day! The experience was made even better by Derick’s patience and attention to detail. He made sure we had the best views and even stopped for a while so we could just take in the beauty of the place.Beyond just the sights, what really made this safari unforgettable was the level of service we received. Tanzania Songbirds Safaris takes pride in offering a more personalized experience, and it showed in everything—from the comfortable vehicle to the carefully selected accommodations. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home and comfortable every step of the way.By the end of our three days, we felt like we had experienced Tanzania at its best, thanks to the care and dedication of the team, and especially Derick. If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, I wholeheartedly recommend booking with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. They’re a company that truly cares about its guests, and with guides like Derick, you’re guaranteed a safari that’s not just a trip, but an experience you’ll never forget.
