Meet the Nyange Adventure Team
The People Behind Every Unforgettable Adventure
A great Tanzania safari or Kilimanjaro climb is never just about the destination — it is about the people who take you there. The Nyange Adventure team is a family of locally born guides, certified mountain experts, passionate travel planners, and dedicated support staff who share one common goal: to give you the most meaningful African adventure of your life. From your very first message to the moment you arrive back home, we are with you every step of the way.
Meet Praise Nyange — Founder & Director, Nyange Adventure

“The best safari guide is not the one who knows the most — it is the one who makes you feel what Africa is really saying.”
Growing up in Marangu, a small village at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, adventure was simply a way of life. As a young boy, Praise spent his days exploring local waterfalls, hiking mountain trails, and looking up at the peak that the world now knows through the famous Marangu Route on Kilimanjaro. That childhood love for East Africa’s wild beauty never left him — it became the foundation of everything Nyange Adventure stands for today.
Praise founded Nyange Adventure in 2012, building the company from the ground up in Moshi, Kilimanjaro, Tanzania. With over 10 years of experience in the East African tourism industry, Nyange Adventure has crafted thousands of tailor-made African adventures for travellers from across the globe. From summiting the Roof of Africa on Kilimanjaro, to witnessing the Great Migration on the endless plains of the Serengeti, to unwinding on the Spice Islands of Zanzibar — every journey carries Praise’s personal commitment to genuine care, deep local knowledge, and first-class service.
Nyange Adventure is an ethical travel company with a strong community conscience. Competitively priced, locally rooted in Moshi, and led by someone who grew up living the adventure — Praise and his team are ready to turn your East Africa dream into reality.
The Faces That Make It Happen
Every member of the Nyange Adventure team was chosen not just for their skills, but for their heart. These are people who genuinely love what they do — and it shows in every game drive, every summit push, and every carefully planned itinerary.

Nyange Adventures Safari Reviews
Posted on Catriona SVerified 10/10 Kilimanjaro Trip We had the most amazing Kilimanjaro climb with Nyange Adventures and Equatours. We took the 7 day Machame route and our AMAZING guide Amnaay and team were just the best! We submitted on 7th October 2025 and loved every second! The team were amazing and every tiny detail was catered for, our safety was too priority, and of course having fun along the way! Would recommend them completely and will definitely book future African adventures with them too! Thank you so much, Catriona, Scotland UK.Posted on Thomas FVerified 5 Stars + rating for the extraordinary Nyange Adventures Climb Team! 5 Stars + rating for the extraordinary Nyange Adventures Climb Team! Our team of 7 climbers took the 6 day Marangu route. The climb team leaders and assistant guides (Victor, Mo and Navia) worked well as a group to provide an overview of our hike before starting and instilled in use the importance of positive vibes only (POV). Were attentive to the needs of climbers who had a slower (pole, pole). The initial backpack checks to double check all equipment that was needed was in your bag and whatever you were missing at that late stage they were about to rent to you.The daily oximeter readings and health checks and inspirational motivational talks mixed with humor always helped to PVO at the highest levels every day.Enough cannot be said about how delicious the food that was prepared by Steve, who called himself the stomach engineer. An animated gentleman, who was very funny, and you could tell he loved his job of preparing our food for the day. All the food came from Nyange’s Organic Kibo View Farm. We had a range of delicious soups (Motri, Maharagwe ya Nazi, Tomato, etc) along with other favorite Tanzanian dishes. We all enjoyed seeing Emmanuel, the waiter 3 times a day delivering coffee / tea to the huts to wake us up in the morning (and as we go higher on the mountain with no water source – bucket baths supplies), followed by breakfast and later in the day dinner, typically in the dining hall at the camp. Lunch was typically a box meal (but also delicious) since we were in route to other locations during the day. Emmanuel had such a big heart with great big smile, and we all enjoyed seeing him at least 3 times a day.The porters (16 of them and important to list all of their names: Venance, Raymond, Philip, Julius, Tayari, James, Josia, Rogers, Salimu, Pendaeli, Mashdi, Ramadhani, Wilfred, Shabani, Rajabu, and Ally) were the hidden heroes of the climb team, ranging in responsibilities of carrying the back packs for our team of climbers and they raced ahead to get our bags to the next location before we arrived, along with when we got to base camp at roughly 14,000 feet needed to return to the lower camp to retrieve more drinking water for our group. Also, transporting the portable toilet (Muba), to the three that were the summit porters (Muddy, Daubi and Mduma) which required early morning departures to the reach summit points with frequent checks to make sure all were doing well, with all of these activities making us all feel secure and well-supported in this challenging environment. We all had success with our climbs and no one in the group got sick. Thank you climb team.Nyange Adventures was started in 2011 and the Organic Kibo View Farms started in 2015, which is huge asset to the quality of food served pre and post hotel stays for climbs but also the source of food for climbs. A few suggestions that I hope will assist on the administrative side of Nyange in making the arrangements with future client groups. More transparency of the coordination between the staff member arranging the trip for climbers and the crew that carries out the climb. We never met the staff person on site that we spent 9 months coordinating and confirming arrangements with. The complexity of the living wage tip rubric was confusing but finally confirmed via staff in multiple messages, but the climbing crew had different numbers. It got sorted out in the end, but timing of renegotiation at this celebratory end of climb was not pleasant time. Simplifying these recommendations, since this confusion prevents clients from increasing tips beyond the minimum levels. Also, improving the upfront transparency for the mechanics for returning deposits (in keeping with the policies of Nyange Adventures), for climbers who cannot make it due unforeseen circumstances. We had 1 person that needed to cancel 6 months ahead of the climb and it was worked out in the end, but a time-consuming back and forth process that took several months to resolve. I feel so strongly about the extraordinary service of the Nyange Adventures Climb Team, my rating is a 5 stars + for this 25 person group, but lowered the overall rating to 4 due to the administrative hiccups that will hopefully be resolved for future clients. Thank you again for this amazing opportunity to be supported by your company for such an epic life changing event.Posted on Tristen mVerified Phenomenal climbing experience Incredible experience climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. All of the porters and guides were amazing and far exceeded our expectations, caring for all 7 of us every step of the way. Would recommend going with Nyange Adventures over anyone else especially after completing the climb. Also, Victor, Mo, and Navia were fantastic; extremely sociable and made the experience so much fun.Posted on Frances SVerified FREAKING SO AWESOME BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE. This was actually such an amazing experience from start to finish. We came as a group of 6 22 year old college students and a teacher and had the best time climbing. Our guides were understanding, knowledgeable, and very personable. I felt heard and safe the whole time. The food and accommodations were excellent and the experience was truly catered to our specific group and our needs. Summit day was the best day I have had thus far and it was because of the team we had. Our porters were super kind and funny and despite carrying more than we could even imagine were fist bumping us on trail and giving us words of encouragement. Our guides were Victor, Mohamed, and Navia! They were beyond amazing. Overall great experience.Posted on C RasquinhaVerified Nyange Adventures for trip of a lifetime to Tanzania Nyange Adventures managed our trip into Tanzania and developed the itinerary and set us up with an Amazing coordinator in Amina and a great guide in Richard Eberneezer. From start to finish, the accommodations and the attractions along this 8 day journey were magnificent. Strongly recommend Nyange Adventures and working with Amina and Richard.Posted on jana rVerified 5 star company!!! Excellent service with the guides and porters from Nyange Adventures! Hands down, top notch company! Their motto is come as a client, leave as a friend- I can attest to that! We had an amazing time and all bases were covered- even the ones we didn’t know about! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Posted on Regina OVerified Unforgettable Safari Experience. Our safari with Nyange Adventures through Lake Manyara and Serengeti was incredible! We saw so many animals in their natural habitat, and the expertise of the guide made each moment more enriching.Posted on HCVerified An incredible team and an unforgettable climb. The group tour I signed up for ended up being a solo trip due to last minute cancellations. However, this gave me great flexibility with the itinerary and a perfect opportunity to get to know the team. I felt safe, respected and taken care of as a female solo traveller. The whole trip felt seamless. Amnaay, the mountain guide, was instrumental to my successful summit - he was knowledgable and professional. The meals provided every day were freshly prepared and delicious. The team of porters amazed me every day with their physical abilities and joyful spirit. Bonding with the team was a highlight of the trip - not a day went by without someone bursting into a belly laugh! I also stayed at the Kibo View Farm before and after the climb, which was a little slice of heaven. I would highly recommend Nyange Adventures for their local expertise and fair treatment of porters.Posted on CarlosVerified A personal goal achieved thanks to the guidance and support received from the Nyange Adventures team. At age 73 I successfully completed the ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro, via the Lemosho route, a week ago today. Throughout the eight day trek and the final ascent to Uhuru Peak I was impressed by the guidance and support received at all times from the entire Nyange Adventures team. The guides, Mo and Colin, the cook, the waiter and the fantastic team of porters that accompanied me made my success possible, and I would therefore not hesitate to recommend Nyange Adventures to anyone considering the experience of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.Posted on Leticia LVerified Excellent and exceptional experience! My experience couldn't be better and I couldn't recommend Nyange more! They are excellent and I'm super satisfied with everything.I booked my climbing to Kilimanjaro with them and everything was perfect from the starting communication to the very last second I was with them.I'm a woman solo traveler and I felt safe every single time.All the staff is very nice, helpful and attentive. They really make the phrase "come as a client, leave as a friend" come true, I'll miss everyone! Special thanks to my guide in Kilimanjaro: Amnaay (if you wanna go with him, I assure you'll have a fun and pleasant time! He knows a lot, is very encouraging and literally held me when I couldn't walk anymore. I don't know if I could reach the summit without him and all the other guys that came with me - the cooker, waiter and porters, everyone special, very professional and has their space in my heart).They arranged everything I needed: my commuting from the city center to the farm (their farm is amaaaaazing, beautiful and the room was super comfortable and clean and with a breathtaking view of Kilimanjaro. All the delicious food they make is local - with ingredients from the farm), even in my last night Amnaay asked them if they could cook Ugali for me, and they did!The owner, Praise, is also very caring and himself always make sure that everything is ok, always having nice conversations, asking if I need something, etc.I could be here writing a review of 50 pages only speaking good things about them. Highly recommend! It was for sure the best experience in my life and thanks for them!
