Posted on Bronzing G12 December 2025Verified ★★★★★ – Exceptional Experience with Twende Africa! ★★★★★ – Exceptional Experience with Twende Africa!We climbed Kilimanjaro with Twende Africa and it was, honestly, a flawless experience from start to finish.Peter was extremely professional and well-organized – before the climb he provided all the necessary information, clearly structured, so we felt fully prepared and confident.On the mountain, our guide Baraka was absolutely outstanding. Highly skilled, technically excellent, and truly attentive to every person in our group of five. Thanks to his guidance and the way he managed our acclimatization, all of us reached the summit with no issues or risks. He was always proactive, supportive, and genuinely committed to our comfort and safety.The entire team – porters, cooks, waiters – matched the same high standard: kindness, professionalism, respect, efficiency, friendly smiles, and impeccable service throughout the whole journey. We felt supported every single step of the way.I wholeheartedly recommend Twende Africa. A top-notch team, exceptional guiding, and a climb with 100% success! 🌍✨Posted on James M23 October 2025Verified Best Guide in Moshi! I would sincerely recommend Twende Tours and Peter as one of the best guides I have ever been with. We spent such a wonderful day with Peter hiking to the Materuni waterfalls and then we went on a local coffee tour. Such a kind knowledgeable guide who has hiked to the top of Kili more than 140 times! Would really recommend Peter and Twende Tours.Posted on Alex B15 October 2025Verified Friendly Tour Tour guide was punctual and friendly. I enjoyed walking around Moshi and getting to see the markets, train station, and various other sights. The tour guide had expert knowledge of the area as a local and took his time showing me around, answering all my questions and even teaching me a little bit of Swahili!Posted on JL M28 July 2025Verified A moving encounter. An extremely warm Welcoming by the locals. Interesting exchanges on the way of life of the Malays. I thank Kariokai in particular for his kindness.Posted on Pankit P4 July 2025Verified SUMMIT WITH TWENDE I cannot sing enough praises for Peter and his team on our adventure of hiking Kilimajaro via Lemosho. From the very beginning, Peter was very prompt in answering all our questions and guiding us on what to expect on the journey. We were a group of 4 including 2 fifteen year olds.Baraka and Kalvin were our lead guides. They always made sure we were comfortable and set a comfortable pace for the journey. They were extremely patient knowledgeable. Every night we had a briefing of what the expect for the next day. Daily monitoring of our oxygen levels and heart rates. Shout out to our cook and waiter (Richie and David). I had previously read on blogs that we should be carrying our own hot sauces – Not with this chef. Full breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner + snacks for the road! Not one meal was repeated – and with a taste that can beat any established restaurant. The soups were the best. David made sure we were eating well to build stamina. The soul of our team were the porters, these guys know – and I’m not exaggerating, every rock in the terrain. They would pack up after we left for our hike, beat us to the next camp, have everything setup before we reached with hot meals ready to serve. Some porters would also make the trek back towards us, to take our backpacks and lighten the load – they operate as one team. When you see them going up and down these steep terrains, with the amount of weight on their backs, your own achievement of summitting becomes very humbling – they do it day in and day out. Baraka and Kalvin kept up a pace that was comfortable for us on summit night - with constant encouragement. We also had 2 extra summit porters to assist on the hike, and we could not have done it without them. Us coming from sea-level, carrying even 5 pounds on top the heavy clothing you’re wearing feels like carrying 40 pounds.Twende ensured that we tasted success and would not have been possible without the entire team. Would highly recommend Twende for your Kili Hike - Best of all, they are a local company and they treat everyone well!!!Posted on Prakash M1 July 2025Verified Moshi City Tour I had the pleasure of joining the Moshi City Tour led by Peter, and it exceeded all expectations. His deep knowledge of the city's history and culture, made the experience both educational and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of Moshi and its people.Posted on Soma A24 January 2025Verified Kilimanjaro Hike with Twende Africa In January 2025 i trekked Kili with Twende Africa and highly recommend this small, local business owned by Peter. All my needs were heard and accommodated by Peter and his team. Guide Eli is very friendly, knowledgeable and reliable. Everyone in the team did their part as was needed to make my hike a very enjoyable and memorable one! Thanks Peter and Twende Africa team 😊Posted on Florian n3 November 2024Verified It was a perfect trip for all of us We travelled with Tanzania specialist, and the trip was well organized.Our guide Wilson and his team were just perfect.

Wilson showed us the animals and plants in the rainforest and the higher we got the nicer the view.What I liked very much, he always chose the right pace so that we could reach the summit.Thank you for that. VolkmarPosted on Tamsin Z23 October 2024Verified Great forest walk Peter was an amazing guide and picked us up at our hotel and even brought us back again. He told us all about the different animals, trees and plants whilst the forest walk. He is so funny and his interest for wildlife is addictive and we loved to hear about his stories.
