What Our Clients Says About Us
Rating
We had a great time with our car from adventure kaskazini! The reservation process was quick and easy and they even helped us to plan our trip and get the necessary permits for different national parks as well as giving us some travel advice. The car was equipped with everything we needed and everything worked fine, the rooftop tent was a particular highlight. The car is very suitable even for some rougher roads around Ngorongoro and to lake natron. Also if you have any trouble whatsoever you can contact them anytime and they are very fast in providing help. Thanks again!
100% RECOMMENDATION 💯 We did a 7 day trip with our driver & safari guide Jamal through Serengeti, Ndutu and Ngorongoro and it exceeded our expectations! Everything was perfect: - super easy planning of the itinerary and accommodations via WhatsApp & paying with credit card (we already had a rough plan and some lodges and we were consulted how to improve it and also booked some other accommodations through Kaskazini) - Our driver Jamal was super kind, knowledgeable and great English! We saw the big five and other great things, such as cheetahs hunting, leopards eating, SO MANY lions — we would definitely recommend him as a guide 100% and would do a trip with with him again anytime! - the price is super fair and transparent, you get a list of what costs what exactly (especially the Nationalpark fees are the expensive part) and you can plan everything according to your needs Overall, we can highly recommend Kaskazini over any big all-inclusive company, it is a local company - super reliable, responsive, knowledgeable and kind 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 We will definitely come back!
