EXCELLENT Based on 247 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Augusto BVerified Kilimanjaro - Lemosho Route 8 days One of the best experiences I’ve ever had in life was climbing the Kilimanjaro. Materuni Tours is a well organized local company and it did everything great during my journey. Ambrose was always very attentive and took good care preparing the trekking. Emanuel was an amazing guide and helped me a lot during that 8 days. All the team did a great job: the guide, the cook and the porters!! None of that could have happened without them. I highly recommend Materuni Tours!Posted on Tripadvisor Ruth TVerified Once in a lifetime. This was an exciting and exhilarating hike. Grueling and rewarding. Our guides were great, and our porters and chef exceptional. I would definitely recommend trekking with Materuni.Posted on Tripadvisor L DVerified Kaffe-Tour, Safari und Usambara-Mountains - alles super :) Es ist schon das dritte mal, dass ich mit Materuni Tours Safaris und auch die Kaffee-Tour mache. Die Kaffee-Tour führt durch das Dorf Materuni, durch eine wunderschöne Landschaft zu einem riesigen Wasserfall. Die Wanderung ist nicht anspruchsvoll und wunderschön. Außerdem wird einem gezeigt, wie Kaffe wächst und wie dieser Hergestellt wird bzw. kann man ihn selber herstellen. Das hat uns sehr gut gefallen! Danach haben wir eine 4 tägige Safari gemacht, die einfach traumhaft war. Wir hatten sehr schöne Unterkünfte und ein cooles Auto mit viel Platz. Da wir Vogelliebhaberrinnen sind hat uns auch sehr gefallen, dass sich unser Fahrer extrem gut mit der tansanischen Vogelwelt auskennt und hat uns die Tiere immer gleich in einem Buch gezeigt. Nach der Safari haben wir noch über Materuni Tours eine 3,5 tägige Wanderung in den Usambara Mountains gemacht. Das war der Wahnsinn!! Die Natur ist traumhaft und wir sind durch viele Dörfer gewandert und haben einen tollen Einblick in die tansanische Kultur bekommen. Unser Guide Francis war sehr, sehr nett und lustig. Er hat die beste Guacamole der Welt gemacht und war sehr aufmerksam. Wir haben viele Chameleons gesehen und hatten einen unfassbaren Ausblick von über 300 km. Ich kann Materuni Tours nur empfehlen, es war alles top organisiert und auch, als wir spontan ein paar Änderungen vornehmen wollten, wurde sofort darauf eingegangen und es wurde umgesetzt. Ich finde es zusätzlich auch gut, dass es ein tansanischer Anbieter ist und so die Wirtschaft in dem Land angekurbelt wird.Posted on Tripadvisor Harold GVerified 7 day Machame Kilimanjaro & 2 day safari In February 2024 we climbed the Kilimanjaro using the Machame route in 7 days. The trek was organized by Materuni Tours, a local company. Ambrose, the owner of Materuni Tours knows his stuff and everything was very well organized. We had a great team of porters, the chef prepared delicious food and the guides were excellent. Also the stay at the Kilimanjaro Accommodation before and after the trek was very enjoyable with a great chef preparing meals on demand. The safari was a little bonus we had not planned before arriving in Moshi. It was again perfectly organized last minute by Ambrose. I truly recommend Materuni Tours, especially because it is locally owned.Posted on Tripadvisor Ena ZVerified Amazing way to experience Kilimanjaro !! Ambrose was very dialed, and his crew was absolutely amazing! Once we exited the airport, Dino was waiting for us. We arrived to the host, Ambrose's house, and everything was beyond my expectations. The food was amazing, and all the little details was incredible. The tour itself was made extra special because of Ambrose's crew. Led by Antony, and also guided by Davis, Matthew, and Josef: they ensured we were all safe and having a good time. The porters and cooks and waiters all also made the trip extra special!!! They sang for us, let me cook a little soup with them, and made sure that we adjusted to the altitude no problem. Our group could not have done it without the crew that Ambrose had for us. I am so happy I got to experience this, mainly because of all of them!!! Highly recommend !!!Posted on Tripadvisor Roland NVerified Materuni safari Our guide Kaleby picked us up from the hotel in Arusha and we went to the beautiful park Tarangire. We saw many animals and the views were amazing. Kaleby had a answer to every question we had. We saw a leopard! We spent the night in Haven Nature Lodge. Great place, good food, great staff! Early in the morning we drove to Ngorogoro Crater. Undescribable place, we came close to lions with 4 cubs playing. Elephants, hyenas, sebras, wildbeasts, birds. Materuni tours did all they promised. Great guide, good car and good food.Posted on Tripadvisor Joe SVerified Unforgettable experience! Unforgettable experience climbing Kilimanjaro and doing 5 day safari. The mountain team were 1st class and do everything for you on the mountain so all you need to do is walk, giving you the best chance of summiting. Safari was a really fun was of spending the 2nd week, we saw lots of amazing animals including the big 5, and also nice way to meet other travellers. Materuni Tours provide a very personalised experience, and will look to arrange anything you want at short notice. If you’re a solo traveller and looking to be part of a group, best check first when there are sign ups and for which routes, as there’s no guarantee there will be a group if you select your own dates. Also the accommodation is nice but a bit out of town and feels like a safe house, so if you’re wanting to try and link up with other travellers/climbers then worth arranging a hostel in Moshi. Otherwise a fantastic experience!Posted on Tripadvisor Irene SVerified Great Safari Tour We made a more days tour. We were going to Arusha National Park, Tarangire Park, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro. We had a great guide Nuru who knew so many things and tell us about all the parks. We saw all of the Big 5 that was amazing. I can recommend this safari tour!!! Materuni thxPosted on Tripadvisor Irene SVerified Trip that I never forget The trip was amazing. We had a great team, and the guides where super! They helped me to go up the mountain. Give me mental support. I don’t made it to the top because of my headache and nosiness. But I am proud that my husband made it to the summit together with Joseph. Materuni Tours thanks for the great experience 🩵Posted on Tripadvisor Bente GoemanVerified Living a day as a local! This tour will give you a really good perspective how the daily life of a real person in a Tanzanian village looks like. They will bring you the beautiful waterfall and after have a coffee workshop. Extra special was the personal touch of the guide who lived his whole childhood in Materuni village. He showed his house where he grew up and we visited the school where he went as a child.
