- HHannah· May 26th, 2023We summited Kilimanjaro via the Marangu Route with Spider Tours And Safaris. 6 days on the mountain. There were 6 of us in the group with an age range from 14 to 66.

The chef did an excellent job keeping us fueled.The whole team, guides to porters, were very supportive and made it possible for all of us to reach the top, and we all did.Show moreTrip date: January 2023

- elizabethy· October 5th, 2022We had a really great experience with spider tours and safaris . Our guides, peter and Daniel, were brilliant and made every effort to ensure we had a great trip. The porters and cook were excellent, we never had to worry about timing or going hungry and experienced a very wide range of delicious meals. Our chef, kiba, also had some decent cobbling skills and stitched some new life into a pair of old boots. The trekking team and off-mountain management all came together as one and it was great to spend 8 days with Tanzanians that appeared to be friends as well as colleagues. We had some mild altitude issues on the summit day, but they were swiftly handled and our guides gave us the determination to carry on!Show moreSpider Tours and Safaris commented on this reviewspider tours brand stands as a local Tanzanian company that provides an outstanding service, fair and ethical treatment of guides and porters, safe, great success and best experience possible We hope you continue to having unforgettable Tanzania with...

- Ruthy· October 5th, 2022spider tours and safaris is a local Company and that is one of the reasons we chose them, in order to support a local Company. They are very serious in the pre-booking and we managed to book several tours that were linked. Our first tour was safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Our driver was Rojas, he picked us up at the border from Kenya and drove us to Serengeti. It was an Amazing 3 Days with Rojas, doing safari from North Serengeti to central and then the crater. We saw the big five and lived at Amazing lodges already prebooked with spider tours and safaris. Rojas also took us to a masai village (I would skip that, it is a rip off). He was a very good driver and guide and we had super fun with him in the car! Then the last day he drow us to Moshi, to our hotel were we met our guide for our Kilimanjaro tour (also booked with spider tours and safaris). The only thing we felt here was that we are hikers from Scandinavia and we were already equipped with warm clothes, so they sold us over a 100 dollars of rental, most of we needed but the thermal pants and the extra flees I never used. However the rest of the trip, was Amazing. Beautiful scenery, Amazing chef, Amazing porters. They made us come up on the top, which was a huge success. They also helped with transports when we got back to the hotel and to the Airport and were super helpful and friendly. Also a fair price to climb the mountain. I highly recommend them!!Show moreSpider Tours and Safaris commented on this reviewThanks ever so much for a your time and reviews, we working had to have a best company and we can wait to welcome you again, so every body can come to share experience with us.

- esra· October 5th, 2022spider tours and safaris is an excellent locally run company. I signed up for the 8 day marangu route along with a 4 day safari. From initial planning of the trip throughout the end spider tours and safaris provided excellent timely communication and service. Our climb was led by guides dany and innocent and both were great. They have led summits many times and were very knowledgeable and friendly. If you listen and follow they will definitely get you to the top. The rest of the team (Cook, Porters, etc) were awesome and they always seemed to be having fun and in a good mood. Overall all of the employees seem to be treated well and happy. Our Safari was led by Bryan who has an eagle eye for spotting animals. On multiple occasions he was pointing out stuff we never would have found. He has been in the business for quite some time and it really showed as he was an excellent guide. Overall spider tours and safaris far exceeded my expectations and is an excellent choice if you are heading to Tanzania.Show moreSpider Tours and Safaris commented on this reviewThanks ever so much for your time as well as details review, we are always here to make a way and foot print so other groups can follow our steps all the way to the summit. spider tours and safaris, is a sure safety belt all the way to the summit,...

Traveler•Written September 2024What is the hotel name and arrival time for my trip in Moshi?
- Spider Tours and SafarisOperator•Written September 2024
The Hotel name in Moshi is Kilimanjaro Crane Hotel. You can arrive at any time, but the best time is late afternoon. We will book the hotel in advance and will be there to meet you shortly after you arrive.
- Spider Tours and SafarisOperator•Written October 2024
In Tanzania, especially in national parks and tourist areas, it is generally advised to avoid wearing camouflage clothing as it is reserved. While there are no strict laws against colorful camouflage patterns, it's a good idea to opt for solid colors or more neutral tones to respect local customs and blend in with the environment. As for bright colors like red, orange, and pink, these are generally acceptable to wear as long as they aren't in a camouflage pattern. Be mindful of the specific activities you'll be doing. For hiking on Mount Kilimanjaro, choose practical, breathable clothing that's comfortable for movement. Regarding socks, there are typically no restrictions on them.
