  Just returned from our 7-day climb up the Machame trail with Altezza and I truly can't say enough amazing things about the company & the folks working there! To set the stage, we were a small group of three women in our early 30s from Chicago IL, USA. To start, the booking process is incredibly easy and Stasia couldn't have been more helpful via email. We had months and months of questions leading up to the hike and she answered in detail within minutes. The company has a helpful packing list, and you can rent anything you don't want to spend money on buying. When we landed at Kilimanjaro airport our driver was waiting for us, was helpful with our luggage, and made us feel right at home. Upon arrival to the hotel, Ana was so kind and helpful with check in. She went through our gear check in detail & asked great questions about what we brought along to ensure we were prepared. The next morning we woke up to meet one of our two guides, Edwin. Right off the bat Edwin made us feel comfortable and we knew it was going to be a great seven days together. We arrived to the Machame gate for checkin and a yummy lunch + to meet the rest of our team consisting of another guide (Joshua) and our team of 13 porters. They were all smiles and brought such amazing energy!The rest of our time spent on the mountain was perfection! Joshua and Edwin did a wonderful job of evaluating how we were feeling and hiking us along as they felt fit. The three of us are in good shape and they could tell we could go a bit faster than other groups. Every few hours they magically brought out hot tea during break time. Once you start to get a bit higher and it gets colder, this becomes a highlight! Not to mention some of our best conversations happened while overlooking a gorgeous view sipping tea all together.Each day we got to camp everything was ready to go! They provide warm water both in the morning and evening to wash up. You also get coffee/ tea in your tent in the morning. The meals were delicious (for real!!) and we never went hungry. They even brought us a cake for New Years AND our chef made one on our last morning. I can't bake a cake in my condo let alone on a mountain! Also, I'm a veggie and they went above and beyond to ensure I had something separate to eat. Each meal also has hot water to make more tea or coffee; again a perk when it's freezing! Before you head to sleep they give you a stuffed bunny with a hot pod of water inside. It warms your sleeping bag right up and made going to bed in the cold so much better. Such a lovely add on.When it came to feeling safe, our guides made sure we were feeling great each step of the way. They checked our heart rate and oxygen levels twice a day and when climbing steeper boulders made sure we felt safe. They also made sure we were drinking as much water as possible throughout the day.On summit morning, despite crazy wind, snow, hail, and cold, we never once felt unsafe or like we couldn't do it. Edwin, Joshua, and Frank (a porter who summited with us) did everything from pushing hair out of our faces, re-buckling our backpacks, unzipping and rezipping coats, opening up hand warmers, and even giving us words of encouragement. When we reached the top it felt like such a team effort! In summary, this company goes above and beyond from start to finish. They truly care about your experience & safety. It was an INCREDIBLE adventure filled with an amazing team (our rafikis!) we miss dearly. Do yourself a favor and book this company and ask for Joshua and Edwin's team. You won't regret it!A few other tips: - Ask ahead for how many porters/ guides there will be and bring them a little something. My friend works for Constellation Brands and she brought along some Corona t-shirts for them, which they all loved. I would recommend warm winter hats! - Treat your porters like you do your family and friends! They do EVERYTHING for you. We loved learning about their families & seeing pictures of their wives/ kids. - Bring lots of snacks for your breaks - especially hard candy to pass around. Our guides and porters loved Werthers & trailmix!- Keep a journal of each day. I loved coming home and remembering details. Altitude and exhausting can make you forget the small things you want to remember!- Do the private toilet. Best $250 you'll ever spend!! Read more

  Thank you very much for the FANTASTIC Vacation! From the minute we landed in Kilimanjaro and the professional driver, to the AWESOME Safari guide and experience to the super professional hiking guides, we were absolutely blown away! We really really had a great time. The safari experience was so much better than we could have imagined. We saw so many different animals and so close to our vehicle that we got fantastic pictures!!! The guide was awesome in getting us close to all the animals and very friendly and professional. All the accommodations and lodges and staff were very inviting. We really felt welcomed and appreciated during the entire safari trip. The hiking portion was an experience of a life time! Although my wife did experience some altitude sickness, the entire hike was unforgettable. The professionalism of the guides (Rama and Stephen) and the entire crew was unbelievable. They always made us feel as part of the team and were always willing to help in anyway they could. The food during the hike was better than restaurant quality! I don't know how they cook such delicious meals on the side of the mountain, but we were really really impressed with the taste of the food. We successfully made it to summit and because it was so cold, we only spent a few minutes up there. Rama was fantastic and took our camera and really took some great pictures for us at the top. My hands were too cold to operate the camera, so we are really thankful of the pictures he took for us! My wife experienced some more severe altitude sickness after summit and with safety being the number one concern from the guides, they made the call to bring in a helicopter to get us off the mountain and my wife to the Kilimanjaro Search and Rescue clinic. The clinic did a fantastic job helping my wife and getting her feeling better. As we left the clinic, Altezza did a great job getting us a driver back to the hotel and securing the hotel room for the unexpected night.The entire trip was absolutely amazing and we are really glad we picked Altezza for our vacation. From all the help from Stasia planning the trip and answering our questions to all the staff at the hotels/lodges/safari/hiking crew/drivers it was a vacation of a lifetime! We would gladly take more vacations with Altezza and highly recommend them to any of our family or friends looking to travel to Africa. Read more

  We were a group of four and had the most amazing time with Altezza on this once in a lifetime journey! From day 1 we were well looked after by Joseph, Abraham and our wonderful 15 porters. Our guides Joseph and Abraham were very patient with us (who aren't very fit or fast hikers) and always made every effort to make sure we were comfortable and fit to keep going to the summit. There was always hot food and water to wash our faces and hands and our tents would always be set-up and ready for us as we reached each camp site. The crew made many special efforts (which i won't give away on this post!) to make each day of our Kili journey that extra memorable and comfortable. It was definitely a Christmas to remember!!! We also learnt about Tanzania and our surroundings from Joseph and Abraham who were filled with so much local knowledge. Would recommend these guys to everyone! Thanks Joseph, Abraham, and crew for an unforgettable experience!!! Read more

  I was planning my trip for a long time parsing different reviews and searching for a reliable and professional travel agency. It was the dream of my life to enjoy the whole wildlife variety and spectacular vistas of East Africa’s national parks. And thanks to Altezza team my dreams came true! Professional guide, comfortable safari vehicles and perfect program of Hartebeest tour allowed me to catch such scenic moments as the lion family hunting scene, resting cheetahs, and the Great Migration in Serengeti. My journey was impeccably managed from the first steps at airport Kilimanjaro until my departure. I’ve enjoyed this a great experience with Altezza Travel. Definitely recommended to other travelers.

  I cannot express how grateful I am to Altezza for organising my first solo adventure, and definitely the best trip of my life! It took me a while to choose the right program to join, because I did not know anything about Tanzanian National parks (million thanks to Stasia for answering all my silly questions with enviable patience!). I ended up choosing a 5-day safari, including 3 days in Serengeti. I was so afraid of going to another country on my own, but this fear went away as soon as I saw a smiling guy waving a sing board with my name on it at the airport exit gate. I met other members of my safari group the next morning and they were from all over the world: an old couple in theirs 70s from USA, who just climbed Kilimanjaro few days before (what excuse do you have now?), a beautiful young girl from Russia and a funny guy from Brazil. At 7:30 am our unforgettable adventure started.
  I’ve been always fascinated by wild animals and untouched nature, but spent my whole life living in a buzzing city Berlin where people are always running somewhere. In Tanzania the time stops. I spent the whole hour watching a hyena crawl towards a dead zebra, cautiously looking around for a potential danger of other hungry predators. Mesmerizing! I cannot even name all animals we saw on our trip… lions, buffalos, infinite number of antelopes, elephants, giraffes, wild foxes, ostriches, caracals, leopards, zebras, hyenas, hyraxes and many many more! All lodges and hotels we stayed at were amazing! Tanzanian hospitality was above and beyond my expectations! Everyone was willing to make our stay perfect. And they definitely succeed! Sitting on the terrace and drinking cold Kilimanjaro beer while watching the sun goes down changing the colors of savanna - that is something I will never forget!
  But the highlight of the trip was our guide Omary, who seems to know literally everything about every plant growing on Tanzanian land let alone with all animal breeds we met on our way. Do you know that there are more than 16 different species of antelopes live in Tanzania? Eland, Dik-DIk, Hartebeest, Topi, Tompson, Oribi… And now with a help of Omary, I can even distinguish them!
  So once again, thank you Altezza Travel for the best wildlife experience, new friends from different parts of the world and an excellent customer service. Next time I visit Tanzania, I will definitely contact your amazing team again! Read more

  This was a fantastic hike and great company. The guide was amazing and the crew and porters were unbelievably awesome.
  My only issue is I was the only one on the hike. Had I known I would not have gone or figured something else out. Being the only one felt lonely. Yes I was with the guide but it was something I wanted to share with someone who hasn’t done the hike and could have experienced the excitement with me. Also tipping the whole crew on my own for their amazing job was hard because I’m not exactly wealthy and only had so much expecting there were at least a few people on the tour.
  Besides that it would have been perfect. Read more

  This tip became quite unplanned and spontaneous for us. Suddenly my wife and I got vacation on the work and we started thinking about travelling somewhere. We found Altezza from context advertising half a year ago or something and now, facing the problem of choosing the destination for vacation, we thought: "Let`s go to Africa, why not?" Obviously we had lack of time for planning the trip and also due to the bank restrictions for international money transfer from Ukraine (you can not transfer through the bank more than $700 abroad), we could not pay a 30% deposit to guarantee our willing to come. After a short dialogue with the manager we bought tickets from Ukraine on the next day. Many thanks to manager Eugene for his responsiveness and understanding of the issue. Telling truth, till the last minute, when we met our safari driver and manager of the company at the airport, I was worry about the trip. Neither me, nor my wife could believe that it is possible to organize 3-days <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/tanzania-safari">luxury safari in Tanzania</a> within 30 hours only. But now I can confidently say "YES"! Alttezza Travel managed to organize a dream-trip for me and my wife and we really appreciate them for the work done and can safely recommend this company to all travelers. Read more

  5 дней карабкался на Килиманджаро, если бы не помощь команды Altezza Travel то я бы развернулся, дважды;)) Одна из лучших компаний предлагающих услуги по покорению самой высокой точки Африки + сафари-туры. Объективно: во время восхождения только нашей группе на ночь давали грелки с горячей водой(очень выручали, ненавижу мёрзнуть!) + питание во время восхождения было лучше чем в хороших отелях + возможность взять в аренду ВСЕ необходимое снаряжение(а я приехал в Африку с маленьким рюкзаком) Read more

  Очень рады, что выбрали Альтеззу для восхождения и сафари. Все организовано превосходно: отличное оборудование, персонал, все хорошо продумано и прошло без заминок (что по нашему опыту, не так часто бывает в таких сложных поездках). Мы восходили в январе, по маршруту Лемошо с chief-гидом Рашидом. Маршрут хороший - позволяет аклиматизироваться и, хоть и не без трудностей, удачно штурмовать пик Ухуру, время тоже удобное - в это время в Танзании лето и на высоких точках не так морозно. Альтезза по максимуму делает поход приятным: повара готовят отлично и много (несколько блюд за раз - суп, второе, десерт!), палатки просторные и очень комфортные, все нужные лекарства у гидов есть. Нам очень повезло с нашими гидами - Рашид, Чарльз, Агри, Тума, Эксод, Роберт - крайне внимательные и профессиональные ребята, всегда были рядом в нужный момент, а при спуске (который мне давался трудно, так как у меня ещё до поездки болела нога) чуть ли не под руки несли в сложных местах и брали мой личный рюкзак. Отдельно большое спасибо Рашиду, Чарльзу, Агри за интересные беседы - эти гиды сделали наше восхождение особенно запоминающимся: у ребят отличный английский, благодаря чему мы много узнали о Танзании, и они хорошо знают местную флору и фауну - так что при спуске через лес у нас получилось целое сафари) Сафари также прошло удачно, нам попался классный гид Бонифаций: хорошо знает парки, разглядел нам всех полагающихся животных, очень юморной:) Итого, всем рекомендуем!

  Thank you very much for the organization of the <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/trekking-kilimanjaro">trek Kilimanjaro</a> in February 2016. Everything was prepared at the highest level. The high-altitude acclimatization was a success, due to your recommendations, my physical training was in conformity with the requirements. Drivers, guides and porters worked perfectly. Employees and administration of Altezza company took swift action in response to our demands including individual requirements and wishes. They have always been in touch. I was pleasantly surprised by European style of doing business and customer focus of company in such country as Tanzania with an absolutely different mentality and a local color.

  Without help of the locals in countries such as Tanzania, it would be very difficult to make a high-quality preparation for the filming the TV program. Everything is quite expensive, the local people are not always honest and responsible. Without local guides, believe me, you won’t get neither proper holidays or any quality of good work. I was fortunate to work with Altezza Travel. Thanks guys, because of you we filmed a great program about Tanzania: experienced real hunting with local aborigine, got into the mine and discover the process of mining tanzanites, went on <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/tanzania-safari">African safari in Tanzania</a>. Altezza team fully took over the organization of our shooting in Arusha (or what to call this region ???). We only had to film our adventures and enjoy life! Thank you, Altezza Travel!

  My family and I were very lucky to spend 10 days in Northern Tanzania. It was our first visit to that part of Africa and, telling truth, our first "not beach resort travelling". I booked this tour in the beginning of March and from the very first letter, I was satisfied with service, quick, full and polite responds from managers of this company. Due to the lack of previous safari experience, I have completely entrusted organization of our tour to manager Eugene. As a result, after few letters we have approved a 10-day <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/park/tarangire">safari in Tarangire</a>, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Natron national parks. My two children were delighted by The Lion King world. We have seen Big Five animals. Before the trip, I was a little worry about transfers since I was not sure how my children feel themselves during long drives. As a result, this trip turned out to be the biggest adventure of the life for my family and we are very delighted to travel with Altezza Travel and driver Franky, who is very intelligent, reliable and friendly.

  Ребята, большое вам спасибо за професионализм,за возможность побывать на крыше Африки. Восхождение нам организовывал наш гид Женя. Наша группа знать не знала с какой фирмой будем подниматься. Об этом мы узнали только в трансфере с аэропорта, когда нам предложили бутылки с водой на которой было написано название фирмы. Я до этого про altezza читала на форуме и в нескольких отчетах, включая популярного блоггера Сергея Долю. Мы старались держаться подальше от русских фирм за границей. Ребятам надо отдать должное, они сломали этот стереотип. Команда портеров удивляла. Они запомнили где чей баул, кто с какой стороны спит. Они старались приходить пораньше, чтоб максимально все приготовить к нашему приезду, все вовремя. Гиды внимательны. Грелки в горах, что просто уму не постижимо было. Очень вкусные и разнообразные ужины. Все снаряжение в прокат новое, качественное. Более того, у главного гида был gps. Всем нашим друзьям и родственникам была отправлена ссылка, по которой они могли следить за нашим передвижением, где, когда, во сколько. Первый раз, когда я смело могу сказать, и наша группа полностью с этим согласна, что не к чему придраться. Очень много внимания к мелочам, к комфорту. И для меня еще большим показателем было то, что гиды сами довольны работой в компании и дорожат своим местом. Altezza огромное спасибо. И пожелания, чтоб также качественно продолжали работать.

  Great <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/park/serengeti">trip to the Serengeti</a> and Ngorongoro with Altezza Travel We recommend Altezza Travel for safaris to the Serengeti and to Ngorongoro. They went out of their way to tailor a trip for us to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and it was fantastic. The guide/driver, Bakari, was professional, exceptionally knowledgeable about everything, and he is one heck of a good driver. Bakari is a natural at finding animals - he was so clever. We're amazed at the variety of animals we saw at close range. (We spent nearly 25 days on safari in Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe, and we saw the same amount of animals but more variety here in Tanzania with Altezza in a far shorter period of time.) The accommodation was beautiful and overlooked the savanna. Our trip with Altezza was so good that we'll return and spend more time on safaris with them. Tanzania truly has it all and we're fortunate to have selected the best safari company with the best guide! Read more

  It was my first trip to Africa. Telling truth I had neither safari, nor mountain climbing experience before in my life, so it was quite scarry for me and my son.

  I was making a joined climb with Altezza Travel in July 2016 via <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/route/machame">Machame 7 days route</a>. Overall organization process was very smooth. The guys from Altezza were always online and all my mails were answered within two hours max. On the arrival, I met the manager Valeria who made very detailed briefing on the climb and answered all my questions. The hotel which we were staying at was very nice, nothing special, just friendly staff and cozy rooms. The climbing experience was beyond my expectations: we went with Samwel the chief guide – he and his team were just perfect and much fun!! Of all the groups I have seen on the Mount Kilimanjaro - we were having the best food and the best service through the whole climb. All the medicine was on the high level though none of us was really having any problems with altitude sickness. All the 4 climbers reached the Uhuru peak and our guides were supporting us to the Peak with thermoses of hot tea, which really helped a lot. My thanks to Samwel and all the Altezza team for the greatest African experience! Read more

  I climbed on the "Roof of Africa" with Altezza in February 2016. I spent a month looking for the best company and found Altezza Travel to satisfy all my criteria. I'm so glad that I've chosen them. They are really the number one company in Tanzania. They provided excellent service, starting from initial communication, support in preparation for the trip and summit itself. All our team, five members including a 61-year-old man, successfully made it to the top! After Kilimanjaro I also traveled to a couple of Tanzanian national parks with Altezza. Everything was great.

  Travelling with Altezza was absolutely amazing experience!! The entire process was seamless and perfect from sales to payment to our wonderful guide Ben! He has eagle eyes and made our safari very special!! Every game drive we went on was an amazing experience. We spotted so many animals and was all down to our very talented driver. He wouldn't stop until he had found what we were after! We have been on safari few times before in Kenya and South Africa and I would have to say that this trip was better than all previous trips combined, thanks to Altezza. Don't be nervous about using Altezza Travel, they made our trip wonderful! Nothing went wrong and nothing out of place! Thank you, guys! Read more

  My two-weeks adventure in Africa is over! All stuff are unpacked, and all the impressions, more or less , arranged on the shelves. The trip was more than spontaneous, I was traveling alone, and my knowledge of the language was so poor and little, however with Altezza Travel I did not even think about difficulties and organizational matters, only admired the local scenery and enjoyed the adventure! :-) Usually, I’m planning the journey by myself, during the process you often realize that something is missing. But when I have returned from this trip, I understand that more intensely and perfectly I would not travel! I joined the group of wonderful people, terribly miss them now, and the service was so great that I would not change a thing! Despite the fact that the ascent itself was challenging, the whole group summited, and we would not do it without help of our professional guides, who followed our needs, speed, health, supported and helped, and even forced, for example, to eat or to sleep when it is needed, and during the summit never left us alone. <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/tanzania-safari">Tanzania safari</a>, I have to say, is not only exotic animals in their natural environment and African landscapes, but also fine hotels and beer in the evening  Thank you so much for such a fabulous trip! ^^ Read more

  It was my first trip to Africa and I had to think carefully before I chose the company to travel with and thank God I made the best choice ever! I heard about Altezza from a friend's friend,so the company already had credit of trust. Throughout the whole period of my preparation process, the managers were absolutely friendly and patient, giving advice and detailed information on various safari options and other things to see in tanzania and quickly answering my questions on what to bring, how to prepare and all those small things you have to know before you travel to a new country which is very far and exotic) Upon arrival they met me us (I was travelling with a friend) at the airport, made us feel welcome in every possible way and gave detailed instructions on our upcoming activities. The safari itself was FANTASTIC!!! I truly loved every moment of it!! It's like being in a TV, in some BBC program, with thousands of zebras and buffaloes and monkeys and other animals around!.. Ngorongoro was my favourite place!! My friend fell in love with Serengeti :)) We also did Arusha park (which is smaller compared to the first two) and Manyara lake.. You have to do it to believe how amazing it is!! And we were lucky with our safari guide who was part of our great experience! We were in the wild and still we had everything we needed to feel safe and taken care of - cold water, wet wipes, tasty meals... And we didn't expect the lodges (kind of hotels) where we stayed at night during the safari to be so awesome! I am very thankful to Altezza for organising such a beautiful trip for us, I know how important it is to be able to foresee all those little things that matter! Read more

  We <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/climbing-kilimanjaro">conquered Kilimanjaro</a> in February 2016. Excellent service from Altezza Travel - would definitely recommend the company to everyone embracing on the adventrure. We ended up going as a couple instead of a group due to change of circumstances. But we had 12 people going with us!! 2 guides and 10 porters. Everything was taken care of: accommodation, plenty of food and water including fruits, regular health checks twice a day. Separate appreciation to the guides - excellent support and fun - wouldn't make it to the top without them. We reached the summit and managed to get safe back. So, would review Altezza Travel as a totally trustable company with excellent service. Read more

  We were delighted to work with Altezza. Our guide was very well educated, civil, cordial and passionate about wildlife! He immediately conquered us with charm and we hope to meet him again. Our little son was crying to leave him, though our baby does not understand English. He has really done everything beyond our expectations. The guides of Altezza are very skilled – he easily outmaneuvered other cars, when a rhino or a lion come close. He was also very much attentive in handling complex parts of the road – we were safe all the time. I have a small recommendation for the other travelers: electricity is often switched off in lodges in the National Parks at night. Thus, taking power banks for charging your gadgets will be very much useful. Seldom do I see good professionals in travel. The guys from Altezza travel is a good exception. Read more

  We had such an amazing time exploring national parks of Northern Tanzania on safari in January 2016. This was hands down the best trip either of us have been on! From start to finish, everything was so well planned and executed, that we never felt any of that normal vacation stress. Even when there was a minor issue with the weather and an outdoor activity, our itinerary was re-arranged so that we could still fit everything in. All of our accommodations were absolutely incredible. We could not have picked them better ourselves! We especially loved how small each one was and how the staff/managers seemed genuinely interested in making our stay as memorable as possible. In planning the trip, Altezza was incredibly responsive and worked with us to tweak our itinerary to fit in everything we wanted and some awesome suggestions we had not thought of (like the truly amazing experience with maasai tribe after Ngorongoro crater). We had a fantastic experience working with this travel company and will not hesitate to use them again for our next trip to Africa, which will hopefully be very soon! Read more

  From reading other reviews, it appears that a lot of your experience depends on what driver you get. We apparently won the lottery, as our driver Franky was wonderful. He had a knack for finding animals and we saw all of the big 5 - most of them multiple times, plus endless hippos, giraffes, zebras, etc. The car was also amazing. It was brand-new (2014) green coloured Land Cruiser with refrigerator, comfortable seats and sockets for charging of devices. Our car was kept clean and cold drinking water was available for us constantly. Our accommodation was clean, comfortable and always interesting! And what`s important – all lodges were in African style. Tanzania is a country where everyone we met was warm, happy and welcoming. It always felt safe wherever we were. This country is an oasis, and I would love to go back again. At the end of our 5 day safari we were really sad to part ways with our driver Franky. I recommend him and Altezza Travel to anyone travelling to Tanzania. Read more

  Many thanks to the entire team of Altezza Travel for our August 2016 <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/climbing-kilimanjaro">Kilimanjaro climb</a>! We really enjoyed everything! Not only did we receive the most comprehensive answers to all our questions, but also Sergey, the manager of Altezza, shared immensely useful advice and recommendations with us. Exaggerations aside, our climbing team was by far the most professional on the Mount. Our porters were very friendly, sociable and hardworking – while the porters of the other climbers on the Mount were hanging out, smoking and talking, ours were running tirelessly, making their best to erect the camp before our arrival. Our chef Benson tried hard to please us with his cooking skills. The performance of our chief guides – Simon and Charles – was above all our expectations. They listened to all our requests attentively, and always made sure that our wishes are taken into consideration by the rest of the team. They even organized delivery of freshly ground coffee to one of the highest camps!!! Overall, as our guide Simon said at the end of the expedition, we were one large family. Thanks to Aleksandr, Sergey, Simon, Charles, Benson and Elias! We will all miss you so much! Read more

  As I decided to organize myself a 3-day safari in North Tanzania in March 2015 (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Arusha), I contacted 8 or more companies per mail. All of them responded quite fast, but Altezza offered me the best program and price. The correspondance with them was always very friendly, personal, clear and fast. Although it was my first safari experience, I was relieved that everything went perfectly well, the minute we went out of the airport on arrival in Tanzania (our first time in this country). We spent 3 nights in very nice lodges, which were recommanded by Altezza. Now the most important thing : our driver-guide Ben! Travelling with him was just perfect : safe driving, sometimes not too fast to enjoy the landscape, sometimes fast to spot impressive animals. He gave us many informations about the animals and the country (I didn't expect to learn so many things!!), but he didn't talk all the time neither, that was perfect for us. Thanks to his patience and very acute and trained eyesight, we saw all the animals we wanted to see and many more... He was very adaptive and agreed to pick us up very early in the morning. For sure I can recommend this company to everyone. Read more

  Удивительное приключение, которое мы пережили под паторнажем Altezza Travel, не забудется никогда! В феврале 2018 года мы отправились в Танзанию. Сначала двухдневное сафари в Тарангире и Нгоронгоро : наслаждение африканской природой и животными, чудные отели и гостеприимство в пути. Затем восхождение на Килиманджаро по маршруту Лемошо с суперпрофессионалами- гидами. Портеры и гиды сделали все, чтобы наша мечта о покорении пика Ухуру сбылась. Спасибо им за это! Затем двухдневный релакс на Занзибаре. И снова великолепный отель, отличное питание.Спасибо Altezza и лично Сергею и Миле за профессионализм и ответственность. Нам даже не пришлось таскать за собой на Занзибар сумки со снаряжением, их привезли в аэропорт к нашему вылету. Все : и трансфер, и отели, и гиды, и водители - всё организовано и продумано до мелочей! Спасибо Altezza!!! Это компания, которой можно и нужно доверять! Read more

  During a month we were chatting by emails with African companies which arrange tours to Africa: climbing Kilimanjaro and Safari. The language barrier, poor description of what we are paying, huge range of prices for the same service from different representatives, created a feeling of scam. Just 3 weeks before departure, we turned to a Russian company In Africa - Altezza Travel, expecting that now the price would be even higher than Africans have. But the price was pleased, Alex was very clear in his first letter, he advised to switch from the <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/route/machame">Machame route</a> we choose to Lemosho and after just a couple of emails we all agreed and decided to go with the Altezza. I must say that we fully trust on the accommodations provided by Altezza, did not check and did not even see any hotel, which had planned for us. Expectations of the hotels were fully met. We were met at the airport, settled in a lovely hotel at the foot of the mountain. Alex has arrived a couple of hours later, gave a full briefing, checked our equipment, some of the stuff we have was quite old and we have been planning to leave it in Africa after the trekking. 80% of our climbing gear, of course, was unprofessional and did not fit. So we went to the Altezza office, where we were fully outfitted. Climbing Kilimanjaro – is definitely a fairy tale. Neither further Safari or Zanzibar are not compatible with the emotions of the ascent! The experience of a lifetime! And such a starry sky probably does not exist anywhere, as on the Equator. Everything was perfect - meals, tents, sleeping bags and great team. And most importantly - professional guides - Moses and Albert. We left the camp the last to trek very slowly, steadily, however we came ahead of all who left the camp before, made 2 stops for 2 minutes and reached the summit one of the first just at dawn! Such an amazing view! Then we had Safari trip where everything was perfect as well. Luxury hotels, the most memorable of which Mbalageti. With swimming pools, a huge selection of food "at the buffet", overlooking the African savannah. Our guide was very energetic and made sure that we saw almost all the possible animals except rhino. In general, this trip is number one of all, where we were. I strongly advise the company Altezza, who carry out their responsibilities in full, taking care and responsibilities for all those who came under their wing in Africa. We already advised Altezza to our friend, I know, she will be also delighted! Read more

  Hi everyone! I and my wife went to Tanzania for a honeymoon and of course we decided to do the most important thing - to conquer the top of Africa. Our friends have recommended us Altezza Travel company. We discussed our climbing and safari remotely. I think prices are rather high but as a reward we got a better quality compared with competitors. Altezza company has a new equipment: tents, sleeping bags, even their safari car is new and very cool! During the ascent the team took care of us. Surely they were earning money but they did their work well. It is not so easy to find such good team. It is a chief’s merit! I have some tips for those who are going to <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/climbing-kilimanjaro">conquer Kilimanjaro</a>, firstly, don’t doubt, it is very cool!

  My wife and I made a climbing with Altezza Travel in October 2015. When choosing the company for <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/climbing-kilimanjaro">climbing Kilimanjaro</a> we were also considering some more budget options, however eventually we were very happy that we were climbing with Altezza Travel. The difference in pricing is visible on the Mount when you see how other climbers struggle compared to you. Starting from the airport Altezza team provided excellent services. My wife and I were taking a private 6 days climb via Umbwe route, our guides were very nice guys Victor and Haji. The trekking was very interesting, at first, we were going through rainforests, starting from the third day we witnessed the picturesque landscapes of the high altitude tundra, which were soon replaced by the unforgettable Lunar-Martian desert landscapes. The team was very professional! We did not expect such a level of service on the Mountain. The meals were really great, rich and varied. The guides were helpful and very caring – they checked our medical condition twice a day using oxymeters and were checking our lungs and overall state of health. The tents and all the equipment was almost brand-new and we were sleeping on 3-inch thick matrasses! The final summiting night was the most memorable and mind-blowing experience. Our guides helped us to conquer the Uhuru peak successfully and escorted us inside the crater to see the Kilimanjaro glaciers. Thank you Victor and Haji! Thank you Altezza Travel for making our Kilimanjaro dream come true! Read more

  Dear Altezza Travel team! Thank you very much for the organization of the climb Kilimanjaro in February 2016. Everything was prepared at the highest level. Though <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/route/rongai">Rongai route</a> is rather difficult (comparing with others routes), everything ran according to plan. This route was desert because of its complexity, so I could admire African views without others tourists. The high-altitude acclimatization was a success, due to your recommendations, my physical training was in conformity with the requirements. Drivers, guides and porters worked perfectly. Employees and administration of Altezza company took swift action in response to our demands including individual requirements and wishes. They have always been in touch. I was pleasantly surprised by European style of doing business and customer focus of company in such country as Tanzania with an absolutely different mentality and a local color.

  My father and I have just climbed Kilimanjaro Mount with Altezza and everything was better than I’d imaniginated! The organization, instalations of the camping tent and, mainly, the professionalism of the team that helped us from the beggining of the route Rongai up to reach the summit! Especially the guides Elipokei and Erick! Byond the knowledgement of the route, me, as a doctor, could noted that they really knew what they were doing about our health control especially even because my father is 67 years old and reacheted the Gilmann’s point with their help. I deeply recommend Altezza! Read more

  I really enjoyed my <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/hiking-kilimanjaro">Kilimanjaro hiking experience</a> with Altezza and could not have asked for a more organized and fun trip. They really go above and beyond to make sure you have a great trek. Plus the hotel you stay at is amazing with a great staff and restaurant area. I can't give enough praise to Dmitry and all of the staff at Altezza. Read more

  От своего лица и от моей супруги, хочу искренне поблагодарить ребят за проделанную ими работу по организации сафари и восхождения по маршруту Марангу. Все было на высшем уровне, начиная от тайминга мероприятий и заканчивая работой гидов и водителей, организацией всех бытовых вопросов и просто решением мелких проблем. Мы были в Танзании со 02.01.19 по 11.01.19 и уехали оттуда отдохнувшими, несмотря на силы, оставленные на горе)) Еще раз спасибо за Ваше дружелюбие и открытость, профессионализм при организации нашего отдыха. С уважением, Павел и Людмила Read more

  I cooperate with Altezza and can strongly recommend them as a professional company, which will organize your trip five plus. When planning your journey to Africa by yourself you have to search for the cheapest options of safari and <a href="https://en.altezza.travel/trekking-kilimanjaro">trekking Kilimanjaro</a>. I can say from my own experience that the local companies by reducing the price of travel often may trick you: give you cheap dirty hotels (though you paid for good quality), the meager food and cheat on different services. After this negative experience you have to specify every detail. With Altezza planning turns into pleasure, I like that they include all spendings in the price, it is always comfortable and even cheaper than the other local companies offer. Altezza offers only comfortable hotels, brand new safe safari jeeps, professional equipment for the climbing on mountains. In addition, they think through every step of the ascent on Kilimanjaro, guides provide you great food and hot tea, support and help at the right time. So I appreciate the organization of the first Russian companies in Tanzania Altezza and recommend them as a responsible company. Read more

  My <a href="https://en.altezza.travel">trip to Tanzania</a> was a memorable one. I think that everyone needs to see the African wildlife through your own eyes, is unlike anything else. Everything is special here: great reserves with unusual trees and unique animals, mode of life of Tanzanians and snowbound peak of Kilimanjaro. So interesting to watch the animals in their natural habitat. They do not pay attention to observers and doing their own things: eat, sleep, hunt, mate and breed – I was able to see all of it and took pictures of the camera :) Honestly, there are a lot of different type of exotic animals. They are different, some species coexist together. Guides were talking with each other and pass the information where some of them noticed an interesting animal, so we were able to see all the animals that have been at this point in the park. My hotel was almost in the city center, which gave me a chance to walk along the streets and look at the lives of Tanzanians. In spite of my poor English I managed to talk with some locals, although they all wanted to sale useless stuff to me. :) However, they gave up after one or two refusals and then just agreed to chat with me. Of course the impression would be incomplete without climbing. Going uphill for 5 days was not only a good challenge, but also a fascinating journey through an unusual area with unique flora and fauna. On the day of the summit we had a trek for about 4-5 hours to the summit camp, then rest, and at night climb about 6-7 hours. It was not easy, but not too hard. The feeling that you are with every meter closer to the highest point of Africa, gave strength. When I saw in the distance a cherished plate, broke into a smile and tiredness disappeared. At the approach I took the camera out and filmed the moment of summiting the peak. I remember that I cried as if conquered Everest :) Read more

  Январь 2018. Может лучше и бывает. Но я не встречала. Ты окружён заботой, вниманием и максимально возможным сервисом с момента встречи в аэропорту и до момента прощания там же. Пожалуй, вся команда работает на то, чтобы ощущение комфорта (душевного и физического) не покидало тебя ни на минуту. А не покорить вершину при таком отношении ты просто не сможешь. После возвращения домой появилось стойкое желание вернуться на сафари, заехать на Занзибар и только с Altezza. Read more

  When you’ve traveled the world, you don’t expect much from a new country, you believe you’ve seen it all. That’s what I thought when I was planning my trip to Tanzania. Fortunately, this country proved me wrong and showed me wonders - let’s be honest, I had expected to see, - but I had no idea how deep and bright and unforgettable this experience would appear. I don’t know how to put it into words, but what you see and feel there is so raw and unique and fresh, you have nothing left but admire and soak it up the way it is. And I believe it’d be wrong to forget Altezza Travel when it comes to my vacation in Tanzania. I’m sure without the guys who managed to polish all the rough spots which might appear during my trip, it wouldn’t have been that awesome! Read more

  We’ve just arrived home and thought we’d send a quick review to thank Altezza and to tell you that we had the time of our lives. We have travelled extensively all over the world in the last 10 years, so we knew for sure which level of organization we expect. First we`ve been surprised with quick and complete replies on my emails. Telling truth this is not easy to work with us, as I changed my mind many times regarding our choices of lodges and locations while planning. Eventually, this holiday became the best ever! We were incredibly lucky and saw the Big Five and so many other things (e.g. lions, hyena & cubs, wild dogs, leopards, giraffes, zebras, jackals, impalas, hippos, elephants, buffaloes, heaps of beautiful birds etc). Also it was a perfect 40th birthday. Tanzania is awesome – those sunsets are quite unbelievable, thank you so much. Thanks to all your team, we’ll be returning soon. Read more
