An unforgettable Kilimanjaro trek and Uhuru Peak summit. I met with Richard, my guide, a day before the trip — you could tell he is a wonderful, amazing, and considerate guy. Everything was well-organized, and timed perfectly.

Guides Mohammed and Godlisten became part of our traveling family — knowledgeable, professional, and competent. The staff member Albin was extremely thorough and helpful from the planning stages through to the final arrangements. I recommend Shah Tours as a homegrown Tanzanian company.

A Serengeti safari and Zanzibar beach holiday with Shah Tours was incredibly romantic. Our guide Makame provided excellent service throughout the national parks and the beach extension was perfectly organized.
