This 7-day private midrange safari was an incredible blend of thrilling Serengeti wildlife encounters and the awe-inspiring challenge of hiking Mount Kilimanjaro. The Serengeti offered spectacular "Big Five" sightings with an expert private guide and comfortable stays. The Kilimanjaro trek, though tough, was immensely rewarding, culminating in an unforgettable Uhuru Peak sunrise with a supportive team. Highly recommended for its outstanding value and a perfect mix of adventure and natural beauty.

Exceptional Service and a Fantastic Tour! From the moment we arrived, African Polecat Safaris exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Brian, was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. The Arusha town tour was a perfect introduction to Tanzania, and the free offer was an incredible value. Brian's expertise and the company's seamless service made our day tour enjoyable and informative. We loved the cultural immersion and the chance to experience Arusha's vibrant atmosphere. Highly recommended! - Abdul, UK
