What Our Customers Are Saying

Moshi is the most amazing tour guide. He knows the country like the back of his hand. I've been on his Safari tours but the best was the time I spent in Kondao. He knows and cares about the community and the environment.

Moshi said to me at the start of the safari, "I will look after you like you are my father!" And he did as my guide! His local and expert knowledge about the rock art sites was impressive! His guidance during my safari was a wonderful way for me to enjoy an experience of a lifetime!

Moshi Changai of Kondoa Irangi Cultural Tours organised two days where we visited 4 sites of Rock Art. Moshi our guide, and Judikar our driver, were both excellent. Moshi was very knowledgeable about the art, the area, the local people, and his English and people-skills were excellent. Moshi also arranged accommodation and meals during our stay. We would recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in such prehistoric sites. We certainly enjoyed our time.

I'm going to recommend you contact Moshi Changi. He has an office in Kondoa. He is a busy guy. He manages a water project funded by Canadians. He is committed to developing cultural tourism in Kondoa. When the road is paved... it will be eventually... he plans to be at the center of cultural tourism for the area. Moshi is listed in many guidebooks and you can find him online as well. He is smart, amazing and will provide an experience of a lifetime.
