Life Changing Adventure Experience! - My wife and I completed our 7 day Machame trek by the end of July 2024 with Incredible Africa, and we highly recommended this company. Our trek was so fun, and with the help of the guides and entire team of porters and chef, we made it to the summit. The whole team were quick to help us in any way they could - during the daily hikes and while at camp. They cared for our well-being whilst also being playful, funny, and a joy to be around. The excellent support began before the trek with Octavian, who answered all questions and provided support before and after the trek. Even after we finished, the Incredible Africa team helped us around Moshi town getting organised for the rest of our time in Tanzania. The trek was the highlight of our Tanzania trip and one of the most challenging, rewarding, and moving experiences that we will always cherish. Thank you, Incredible Africa Adventures team, for the trek but more importantly for making us feel like friends and family.

AMAZING AND TRULY INCREDIBLE! - OMG! The greatest experience ever! The trek is beautiful and moderately challenging. The team is INCREDIBLE! Nelson, Innocent, Raffael, John, and all the others are not only professionals but also quite a spirit. They kept us going when the going got tough. The camps are amazing, the food is great, and you have a five-star service up in the mountains. I will miss their wake-up knock and the ball of hot water delivered to refresh yourself. This trip couldn't have been better!!!!

Humbling and breathtaking experience - It was an amazing experience. I highly recommend the team of Incredible Africa Adventures for summiting Kilimanjaro. They are probably the most heart-warming individuals. Nelson & team ensured our comfort was top priority with immense positivity. We had the tastiest food, the cleanest of tents and comfortable accessories with every need taken care of. When times were difficult, they even fed us, carried our bags, offer their warm clothes, sing and dance to keep our spirits high. Absolute majestic angels(Malaika) of the mountain. If you decide to summit Kili with them, trust me you’re in good and safe hands.

Amazing vacations with Incredible Africa Adventures - I did the 7 days Machame Route and also one day Tarangire Park and it was incredible. Octavian was always available to any question or doubt. The price of the Kilimanjaro is really good because it is amazing all the work that the guide, cook and porters are doing every day. I recommend this company to everyone.

Unforgettable trips with IAA - We climbed Kilimanjaro 7 days Machame route, went on a safari for 5 days to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro parks. It was amazing and we ended our Tanzania trip by visiting Zanzibar Island for 3 days which was very unique and lovely, I would definitely recommend this company. We had a good chef a stomach engineer as he calls himself and for sure we enjoyed the food. Our driver/guide was amazing he made sure that we saw the Big Five and beyond our expectations. The jeep was very comfortable and had plugs that not every jeep has this. We stayed in tents during the safari and it was lovely and adventurous, I would recommend this wonderful trip even during raining season. Octavian and his team organized this safari for us, lovely people!

Extraordinary services!! - Four of my friends and I recently completed 7 days Kilimanjaro climb Machame route with Incredible Africa Adventures. It was an amazing experience from the time we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport till the time we boarded our flight back home. The owner Octavian himself came to receive us at the airport and drove us to a beautiful hotel in Moshi town. Next day the team of 2 guides met us at the hotel for mountain briefing from day one till day seven. They were both amazing and ensured we end our hike very successfully. Exceptional guides that the company provided. I would highly recommend Incredible Africa Adventures team for your mountain climbs in Tanzania. They helped us throughout the hike and made sure we were having a good time. The entire team took care of every need and was very flexible. The hike itself should not be under estimated, it is hard work.

Enjoyable Experience!! - It was Incredible experience! Incredible Africa Adventures went above and beyond to make our seven days mount Kilimanjaro climb possible! Not only did they cater to our gluten free diet but brought us coffee and hot water in the tent every morning! Our cook was so good at his job and fed us delicious soups and meals! Our guides were very knowledgeable and had hiked the mountain over hundred times. Beyond being knowledgeable they were so much fun and were great motivators. We were in good hands! Every night they did a medical check up including heart rate and amount of oxygen in our blood to insure that we were fine and healthy! I would recommend this company to anyone want to summit Mount Kilimanjaro.

Enjoyable Kilimanjaro trek!! - I went on a 7 day climb up Kilimanjaro via the Machame route with my wife and four friends through Incredible Africa Adventures based in Moshi. Our guide and his team of porters and cooks were amazing we wouldn't have made it to the top if it weren't for his years of experience, encourage and hardwork he set on the way up. We had great local food, hot washing water every morning and night and our own private bathroom and eating tent. I would recommend IAA to everyone plan to visit Tanzania.

Just do it! - I did a 7 day Mt Kilimanjaro trek that was one of the highlights of all my travel. Not only physically rewarding but a great learning experience too. All nights are spent in Tents where all your food is prepared. As the days go on, i finally got used to the weather because at first it was so cold. The views and overall experience become unmatched. I would like to give all my credits to Incredible Africa Adventures for a well organised trip
