Tanzania Songbird Safaris is a must!
What a magnificent experience. We went on a group safari with of our family and friends to northern Tanzania, and we got a recommendation from our friends back home about Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. We all appreciated it was the best trip we have ever been to. Our guide Erick and Israel were the absolute the best and our group was so glad to have them. Eric & Israel were able to share so much about Tanzania especially wildlife and general history of the country, culture and people. They responded to all the questions we asked promptly, graciously and in detail. We spent 4 days in Central Serengeti and we saw the great migration which is very lucky since we had never seen it before. Thanks so much to Erick, Israel and the entire team of Tanzania Songbirds Safaris for making our dream come true. During the migration safari we saw a lot of animals including the African big five and small animals too. The jeep, accommodations and all meals were the best and we felt very welcomed at the lodge everyday and there so much food on offer. I would be jealous if I couldn't say Tanzania Songbirds Safaris deserve to be the top rated operator in Tanzania and I can confidently recommend them to all travelers looking for a wonderful safari experience in Africa

A Warm & Wonderful Introduction to Tanzania
Before arriving in Tanzania, my partner and I had already booked our safari, so we planned to spend two days exploring Arusha before heading to the wild. The experience was so enjoyable that we immediately booked Isra for a second day.
Isra made us feel comfortable exploring the city on foot. He patiently answered all of our questions and shared fascinating insights into Tanzanian history, ethnic diversity, politics, religion, culture, and everyday life. It felt more like spending time with a knowledgeable local friend.
Our favorite stop was the Central Market. Isra explained how the market is organized and why different sections developed the way they did. We also got to see what local people buy and eat, and even sampled a few local products. Without a guide, we probably wouldn't have ventured so confidently into such a large, busy market.
We also loved the coffee farm. Having visited coffee farms in Colombia and Hawaii, we found this experience unique because we followed the entire process, from harvesting to brewing, at a small organic farm. The coffee was excellent, and we brought a bag home to Canada.
Isra is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing his country. If we hadn't already booked our safari before arriving in Tanzania, we would definitely have considered him as our safari guide. We highly recommend Tanzania Songbirds Safaris.

An outstanding Arusha experience, especially for birders
We visited Tanzania in mid-June and had three transition days in Arusha before and after our safari, so we booked the Arusha city tour with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip.
Our guide, Isra, arrived at our hotel ahead of time each day. The vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, with a dedicated driver, allowing Isra to focus entirely on guiding and answering our questions. Since it was just the two of us, he was very flexible and adjusted the itinerary to match our interests. In the first day, we ended up spending several enjoyable hours exploring the Central Market, which became one of our favorite experiences in Arusha. We enjoyed the tour so much that we booked Isra again for another day to continue exploring the city and the Maasai Market. After we finished our safari and returned to Arusha, we spent our final day with him visiting Lake Duluti and a local coffee farm near Arusha.
What impressed us most was Isra's knowledge and genuine passion for sharing his country. Before our safari, he introduced us to Tanzanian history, culture, wildlife, and everyday life, which gave us a much deeper appreciation of everything we experienced later in the national parks. We had many enjoyable conversations about nature, Tanzanian culture, his experiences as a safari guide, and the daily lives of local people. We learned far more than we expected from a city tour. He also recommended several local restaurants (Uzunguni City Park and Khan's Barbeque), all of which were authentic and excellent. Throughout all three days, Isra was kind, patient, professional, and gentle. As two female travellers, we always felt comfortable, safe, and well looked after.
As birdwatchers, we were especially delighted by his knowledge of and enthusiasm for birds. Not all safari guides are knowledgeable about birds, so if you're a birder, you'll definitely appreciate touring with Isra.
Whether you are looking for a short introduction to Arusha or considering Isra as your safari guide, we highly recommend Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. It was an excellent experience from beginning to end.

It was a nice day!
Everything was perfectly arranged. The guide knew his way & gave us a lot of information which was very pleasant!
Professional, relaxing and very informative tour of Arusha by Isra.
My family and I have just had the most amazing tour of Arusha by Isra. The attention to detail of the city and heritage was brilliant. Isra is such a professional guide and took care of our group. It was a relaxing tour at our own pace. We would highly recommend Isra. What a genuine person.
Thank you so much Isra was the wonderful experience.
