An unforgettable trip with Charles Tours
What a wonderful birdwatching trip, experienced in the company of Charles and Martin—two very friendly, cheerful, and professional guides who were incredibly generous with their time. It was an exceptional 21-day journey, featuring 453 bird species, incredible wildlife, and lodges where we were made to feel truly welcome. And, of course, there were the breathtaking landscapes: the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire… *Asante sana*—thank you so much! —Nathalie and Jean, from Quebec, Canada.

Highly committed in every respect.
In July 2026 we spent three weeks on a birding safari in northern and eastern Tanzania with Charles Tours. The trip was very well organized. We didn't have to worry about a thing and could fully concentrate on observing and photographing the diverse and sometimes rare birdlife. Our guides Amani, Novatus and Martin were extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to showing us the best spots. During the drives we also gained insights into the daily lives of the people in Tanzania. We would wholeheartedly recommend this trip to any bird enthusiast.

Knowledgeable, professional, reliable, polite, committed to serve client beyond expectations.
My guide, Armani instantly put me at ease to do a safari with Charles Tours due to his professionalism. No question was too small to be answer.
He was always on time, polite, extremely knowable about hundreds birds and all the animals. He was always present looking to spot as many animals to make the client happy. Armani has a keen eye and was able to spot things Zi could not see without him.
He also is a safe driver.

Honest and dependable tour operator who made our Tanzania trip feel unforgettable
We are still completely under the spell of our 9-day trip to Tanzania. Calling it amazing would barely do it justice. Even now, I struggle to find the right words to describe just how wonderful it was.
For those 9 days, we did not have to think about a single thing — where to stay, what to eat, where to go, or even where to buy water. Everything was taken care of. In short, it was one of the most relaxing and truly one of the best trips we have had so far.
I also cannot say any more without mentioning the person who made this trip so seamless — Amani Charles. He was much more than just a travel company owner or tour guide. He took care of every little detail, often before we even had the chance to mention it.
All we had to do was enjoy the safari drives, take photographs, and soak in the experience. We saw so many mammals, visited the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, explored three National Parks, and spent the whole trip surrounded by fun, laughter, and unforgettable moments. And the best part — we spotted more than 300 species of birds.
A very special mention must also go to Novatus, the GenZ of our group. His ability to spot birds in places that looked like nothing more than stretches of grass was simply remarkable.
So, if you are planning a birding or wildlife trip to Tanzania, Charles Tours is the company to choose. I am more than confident that you won't regret it.
