An Unforgettable Family Safari with Fondness Vacations – Our Highest Recommendations!
5/5

We had the most incredible safari experience with Fondness Vacations! We travelled as a family with two children for a six-day, five-night safari, and the entire experience exceeded all our expectations in every possible way.
We visited Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara, where we also enjoyed a treetop walk. We had the opportunity to visit two local tribes: the Hadzabe, one of the last hunter-gatherer communities in East Africa, and the Datoga, renowned for their impressive blacksmithing skills. The combination of extraordinary wildlife and fascinating cultural experiences made the trip truly unique.
We saw an absolutely unbelievable number of animals and experienced so much more than we could ever have imagined. Cheetahs, leopards and countless other incredible animals, it was simply magical!
Our guide, Wilbard, was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable, welcoming and wonderful with the children. The kids had the time of their lives as we raced across the savannah in our open-roof safari jeep, spotting wildlife along the way.
Staying in tented camps in the middle of the Serengeti, surrounded by wild animals, was an adventure in itself. Having Maasai guides escort us to and from our tent after dark made the experience even more exciting and memorable!
We also took a hot-air balloon safari over the Serengeti, which we cannot recommend highly enough. Floating above the savannah with breathtaking views and watching lions and hyenas on the hunt from the air was an absolutely extraordinary experience. It was one of many highlights on a trip filled with unforgettable moments!
The accommodation throughout the trip was excellent and thoughtfully chosen for a family with children. After long days out on safari, it was wonderful for the kids to jump into a swimming pool or enjoy a relaxing bath, while we took in the beautiful surroundings and views of the African wilderness.
And then there was the service from Fondness Vacations, which was simply outstanding. Steve personally visited us at our lodge the evening before departure to walk us through the itinerary and explain what to expect. Throughout the trip, he regularly checked in with us via WhatsApp to make sure everything was going smoothly and that we were having the best possible experience.
We genuinely felt taken care of from beginning to end. The level of personal attention and hands-on service was exceptional and made a real difference to our experience. Everything was beautifully organised and delivered with great professionalism, care and attention to detail. We could simply relax, enjoy the adventure and make unforgettable memories together as a family.
If you are considering a safari in Tanzania, especially as a family with children, we wholeheartedly recommend travelling with Fondness Vacations. It was truly the trip of a lifetime, and we will cherish these memories forever. A huge thank you to Steve, Wilbard and the entire Fondness Vacations team for an absolutely incredible adventure!

5/5

Nickson was very responsive throughout the safari and regularly checked in with us to make sure everything was going well. The organization of the safari was good, and everything went smoothly overall.

The food was decent and sufficient, although it was practically the same every day, so a bit more variety would have been appreciated.

The Seronera Public Campsite was very basic, and the toilets were quite dirty. On the other hand, the Simba Campsite at Ngorongoro was wonderful — the surroundings were beautiful and seeing zebras walking around the campsite was a truly memorable experience.

Overall, we were happy with the safari and would recommend Fondness Safari to anyone looking for a well-organized safari experience in Tanzania.

Wonderful, helpful people that made our safari experience amazing and unforgettable.
5/5

We just returned from a safari in Tanzania that Stephen organized for us and it was the trip of a lifetime. Stephen’s communication beforehand was excellent. Then our tip started with Martin picking us up at the airport with flowers, giving us our safari names and showing us some wonderful experiences around Arusha - we loved the coffee boys!
The next day Stephen met us with our guide/driver Aziz and we set out touring Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Central and Northern Serengeti. They were all amazing and Aziz was a brilliant guide and driver, it’s not easy to drive on some of those roads and still spot wildlife but he did it! Aziz also helped make the trip unforgettable for our daughter by gifting her the bird book. She will always treasure it.
Thank you to all at Fondness for making a trip of a lifetime for our family of four.

Great Safari experience
5/5

We had a 4 days safari trip to Tanzania most famous parks with fondness vacations and overall the experience was amazing! I chose fondness based on the reviews on Safari Bookings and Google but what most Made me choose them over other competitors was the kindness and how helpfull was Stephen throghout the all experience. The first impression was confirmed by the trip which was arranged extremely well (with also last minute changes Made by Stephen in order to reach the standards offered by fondness) and made even better by Haziz which drove us to the parks and patiently expleined all the information regarding the animals and made everything he Could to get us as close to the animals as possible. If you are looking for a reliable company for you Safari trip, fondness vacations has to be your choice.

Safari with fondness!
5/5

The trip, 4 days safari tarangire serengeti ngoro ngoro, arranged by Steven was overall great. Steven is very kind and keen to solve anything quickly and answer any question, giving plenty information. The guide Aziz was very kind and calm, explaining the details of safari when needed and when asked for. We had great experiences spotting all the animals thanks the work of Aziz (which is animal entusiastic like the customers) and all the accomodation was great. Strongly recommended for the assistance and services provided!
