Day 1 - Nairobi - Masai Mara National Reserve

We’ll pick you up from your Nairobi hotel bright and early in the morning, commencing our journey towards Masai Mara. While the drive might span five to six hours, the ever-changing and picturesque landscapes will make the time fly by, only interrupted by the pang of hunger signaling lunchtime. Before you know it, you’ll find yourself in the embrace of Mara. Following a satisfying lunch to appease your appetite, you’ll embark on an afternoon and evening game drive. Anticipate a plethora of sightings – from grazers engrossed in their dinners to contemplative predators pondering their next catch, along with the graceful presence of birds and the breathtaking beauty of nature. Your camera will surely be occupied capturing these moments; be sure to leave room for the wonders that tomorrow holds.

A hearty breakfast at your lodge will fortify you for an enthralling day ahead, accompanied by a picnic lunch along the journey. This complete day in Mara guarantees remarkable sights, with expectations set not only on encountering the renowned Big Five – lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard – but also the extended Big Nine, which includes the cheetah, hippo, giraffe, and zebra. Your path will intersect with various mammals, such as antelopes, gazelles, bushbucks, elands, hartebeests, wildebeests, hyenas, mongooses, and a multitude more. Among the treetops, you’ll glimpse swinging monkeys, while the sky will be adorned with eagles, hawks, and vultures, ready to grace your photo album.

As the day of exploration comes to a close, we’ll guide you back to your lodge for a satisfying dinner.

Rise before the break of dawn to embrace the sunrise over Mara. Witness the predators as they become lively, returning from their hunts, while the sun bestows its gentle caress before the heat intensifies.

Following a hearty breakfast, your journey continues with another exhilarating game drive, bidding farewell to Mara bit by bit. While en route to Nairobi, a delightful picnic lunch awaits, setting the stage for your return to your hotel in the late afternoon.

Kilimanjaro Lemosho route TTC were amazing throughout my trek to the Kilimanjaro summit in October 2022. Everything was organised so well but the really exceptional aspect was the team of local support staff and guide. AJ, Paul, Isaya, Joseph, Pascal, Renata and the 30 other fantastic people that carried, cooked, camped and cared for us. Absolutely loved every second, a trip of a lifetime, thank you 🙏

Once in a lifetime experience I climbed Kilimanjaro with the Tanzanian Travel Company (booked through Charity Challenge UK) in October 2022. Everything was superbly coordinated by TTC, who arranged everything from porters, transport, food, tents- pretty much everything we needed to get to the summit! All of the staff from the guides and porters were very friendly and their knowledge was unrivalled. Special mentions to our lead guide, Richard, who's advice was invaluable and the other guides and porters David, Eric and Joseph (there are too many to mention). Would definitely book again with TTC in the future.

Excellent experience I just got back from climbing My Kilimanjaro on a trip organised by Charity Challenge in the UK. All the ground arrangements in Tanzania were done through Tanzania Travel Company and I would highly recommend. Staff were all excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. It was a great trip and I’m considering organising a holiday for the family with TTC in the future.

An adventure you won't forget! The whole experience from start to finish was awesome and I most certainly won't forget it. From the hotel to the staff and porters who made our trek possible, the food was tasty and plentiful, we all felt like part of the team and very well looked after.I definitely recommend doing the Lemosho Route for a greater chance of acclimatisation. The summit night was by far the hardest part but well worth the effort (even I got emotional). I would urge everybody looking to climb Kilimanjaro to definitely train for a good 4-5 months before attempting this challenge, it will only enhance the mammoth achievement.

Fantastic time climbing Kilimanjaro thanks to TTC! I recently completed a climb of Kilimanjaro with a small group of 7, managed on behalf of Charity Challenge by Tanzania Travel Company. We had a fantastic (if gruelling) experience, and I cannot praise TTC highly enough. From the MD Sam and our chief guide Richard, through to every guide and porter who accompanied us (not forgetting Pius, our doctor), everyone combined the highest standards of professionalism with warmth and friendliness, and a genuine concern for both our well-being and our success in getting to the summit. Highly recommended.

Amazing family experience Excellent safari! Incredibly friendly and accommodating! I was having some difficulty finding a well priced thorough safari and was given a number by a family friend who highly recommended this safari company. As Tanzanians it’s rare for us to be able to see a safari but Samuel helped guide us through a plan for a truly unforgettable experience. We hide an amazingly well educated guide and driver Kamau who went out of his way to get us some truly amazing shots. At one point we were literally 2-3 meters away from 3 young male lions, I was in shock at what Kamau could point out. Food provided was excellent Tanzanian cuisine. My little brothers(8 yr)first safari and he had a fantastic time Highly recommend as a Tanzanian.

Excellent experience with TTC! Setting out to climb Mt Kilimanjaro was quite a challenge and the team at TTC made it a safe and enjoyable trip! They did an excellent job guiding us through each day of the climb. I also had the opportunity to go on a safari afterwards with a guide named Livingston and he did an absolutely fantastic job getting us close to the animals and knowing the best spots in the game drives. Highly recommend this incredible travel group!
