Kivolex provided excellent service in organising our trip. From the moment we booked, they provided outstanding support and ensured everything went smoothly. They offered great advice, answered all our questions, and helped make sure we had all the details we needed for our stay. If you're booking a trip to Tanzania, I'd highly recommend using their services for a stress-free experience. My elective experience at the hospital was also fantastic and well organized by both Kivolex and the hospital.

This is our 4th time booking through KIVOLEX. We find it incredibly easy to book through, and they always have the best deals! Innocent and Team have been so helpful throughout each booking process. The Team at the hospital we worked with was amazing, all the doctors loved us and were so supportive. The hospital is an ideal place for a Western medical student to get some African experience. I would love to come back to this hospital. We are looking to book again in Sept 2027 for about 16 of us to go to Tanzania again, this time it will be more than a Medical Elective!!! We cannot wait! Thanks again, team, for all the help and the easy process. We look forward to booking with you again soon.

We had the most remarkable family Volunteer Trip with KIVOLEX Volunteers. Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that our guides and the whole KIVOLEX Team truly cared about us, both the kids and adults, and did their best to make this trip memorable. For our well-traveled children (aged 9 and 6) this definitely has become the most eye-opening, adventurous, and stunning journey of their life – something they will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. For adults, we were pleasantly surprised by the diversity of our trip: from Volunteering at the Hospital and School to Safari, from swimming on the shores of the Tanzanian Ocean to doing a Stone town tour, from Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro to Fishing on Mafia Island, every island and every new activity offered new experiences. We definitely will be back!

The people at KIVOLEX are kind and helpful. My friends and I had a good time with KIVOLEX. It was my very first trip to Africa, and I would definitely want to go back. It was my dream to one day work in Africa and in exact environment KIVOLEX took me. As a nurse student I had not only a learning experience but also a working one, although supervised but at times they would let me practice as a nurse and get that feeling of being registered and licensed nurse. The hospital is a very good place to learn and grow as a junior nurse from abroad. If you are looking to learning and get experience in a different environment outside your comfort zone. This Medical Volunteer program in Tanzania introduced me to almost everything I wished to experience.

Program was immaculate. All of the KIVOLEX staff were professionals and very nice. Staff at the School where we taught were very organized and always there for us if we had any questions. We always felt safe, well taken care of with a very friendly attitude from the team while they showed us a great time, both fun and educational. Second time Volunteering with KIVOLEX Volunteers and we will definitely do it again. Excellent.

Our Volunteer Trip to Tanzania was everything and more than expected. It lived up to KIVOLEX emphasis on learning, development, helping, culture, history, archaeology, comfort and camaraderie. Exceptional KIVOLEX Team attended to each Volunteer interests and needs and was exceptional hosts. Very enjoyable were swimming in Oster bays, the wonderful food quality in the Volunteer house and selection and the sites visited on the Island and mainland. It was all one could hope for and a strong inducement to do another Volunteer adventure very soon.
