African Scenic Safaris

African Scenic Safaris is a sustainable tour operator based in Moshi, Tanzania, that has been operating since 2009. The company specializes in private safaris and ethical Kilimanjaro climbs, offering custom-made packages for groups, organizations, families, and individuals. Their services include 12 Days Tanzania Family Safari, 8 Days Tanzania Classic Safari, and various Kilimanjaro routes like the Lemosho and Machame routes.

The operator provides several climbing packages including the 8 Days Lemosho Route, described as having the highest success rate with a quiet western approach. Other options include the 7 Days Machame Route, known as the Whiskey Route for its steep and scenic nature, and the 7 Days Rongai Route, which offers drier, quieter trails ideal for shoulder-season rains.

The business emphasizes sustainable tourism and conservation, with a dedicated blog section explaining how they protect Tanzania's environment. They also publish articles on why sustainable Kilimanjaro treks are the future of adventure travel and how ethical safaris are transforming tourism in the region.

Their safaris cover major parks including Serengeti National Park, home to the great migration and largest lion population. They also visit Lake Manyara for tree-climbing lions and pink flamingos, Ngorongoro Conservation Area for its volcanic caldera and black rhinos, and Tarangire National Park for elephant herds and baobabs.

Some users on Reddit describe the service as 'beyond excellent,' noting that guides like Joel and Hiari managed to avoid lines even during high season. Reviewers also praise the competence of the team and the overall experience of the Lemosho route.

Customers can request upgrades such as a private toilet, which is considered a no-brainer. Other fairly priced options include a shower, a solar charger, and a larger mess tent, all of which are described as worthwhile additions to the trek experience.
