Amazing trip! Big thank you!
I would like to sincerely thank all of you for organizing my trip in July 2025. It was a short one-week getaway, but I wanted to experience as much of Tanzania as possible and create unforgettable memories for my birthday.
Of course, the highlight of my trip was the safari experience. I started by visiting safaribookings.com and sent out several inquiries, clearly outlining my expectations and budget. Mary was the first to respond—within an hour, if I remember correctly—while some companies took up to two days. From that moment on, Mary became the perfect guide in planning my incredible journey.
She carefully explained the differences between the national parks, helping me understand what each one had to offer. In the end, I decided on a 4-day/3-night camping safari covering Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, starting and ending in Zanzibar. Mary offered a great itinerary that was well within my budget.
I must admit, I changed my mind several times during the planning process—even initially considering skipping Zanzibar altogether—but Mary was always patient and responsive, no matter how many questions I had. She went above and beyond by also recommending a wonderful hotel in Zanzibar, even though that part wasn’t included in the safari package. She helped me prepare for everything I needed for the trip, which made the experience smooth and stress-free.
To add, I started making all the bookings two months in advance, as I was always a bit anxious that something might change—especially since I was traveling as single lady and the trip required a group to go ahead. But as I mentioned, the dates were very important to me because they aligned with my birthday. Luckily, everything went according to plan.
One very pleasant surprise was finding out, upon arrival, that one of the nights originally planned in a budget camp was upgraded and would actually be spent in a lodge. It was perfect—newly built, with private facilities and a very comfortable bed. And the best part? It was right in the middle of the savannah! You could see a giraffe munching on leaves just outside your window, elephants walking on sunset or a hippo grazing in front of your door at night. It was absolutely magical.
From the Big Five to the Big Four and a Half!
We were aiming for the full Big Five, but ended up with what I like to call the Big Four and a Half. We spotted lions, elephants, buffalos, and even a rhino (though that one was a bit far off—binoculars were absolutely essential!). I say “half” because we didn’t actually see a leopard, although we did spend quite some time watching and waiting near a tree where one had stashed its gazelle kill… So close!
But here’s something important to remember: a safari isn’t a zoo or a scheduled show. The park is massive, and the animals are truly wild, which means they can be anywhere—sometimes far from the roads. Considering that our trip was short, considering the distance between parks, and couldn’t afford hours of waiting of actions of wildlife like National Geographic, we were incredibly lucky with what we saw.
We witnessed impressive show of lions preparing to hunt zebras, young lions feasting on a buffalo, a cheetah casually lounging by the roadside, and a big elephant family with babies in tow. We even saw those "stupid" buffalos following the "smart" zebras—it was like a real-life nature documentary!
But my absolute favorites? Giraffes and hippos. Maybe it's because they visited me at night, making the funniest sounds while munching around my lodge… hahaha!
Of course, this tour wouldn’t have been nearly as wonderful without our amazing driver, Mike, and our talented chef, Victor. They were with our group of six throughout the entire journey, ensuring everything was incredibly comfortable. Even with some 'pole pole' moments, I always felt we were on time and in the right place.
Mike, you are a great, cheerful person. Thank you so much for being such an amazing guide and sharing stories about Tanzania, its people, wildlife, and the different behaviors of animals. It was fascinating to learn things I never would have expected! Also, a big thanks for being such a safe driver, while still managing to get us into the best positions for photoshoots. Your quick reactions during busy sightings—especially when we were watching hunting lions among dozens of vehicles—were truly impressive. Fantastic maneuvers and an eagle eye! A special big thank you and hug for keeping your word and finding that single rhino, even in bad weather conditions! You’re amazing for making it happen!
Many, many thanks to our chef Victor, who always prepared fresh, delicious meals—even the bread was homemade! Every breakfast, lunch, and dinner was well-balanced and thoughtfully prepared, with proteins, carbs, and vegetables—just like a perfect nutrition plan. Everything was not only tasty but also very kind to my stomach. Thank you for sparing us from boring sandwich lunches (I really felt bad for the older folks in the other groups) and preparing hot, never-repeated three-course dinners—always something new and delicious! Each evening started with a flavorful soup, followed by a fresh salad or cooked vegetables and a hearty main dish. Super, super, super!
Ashanti Sana!!! Great Job! Thank you to the entire team! I had a truly amazing birthday trip that I will always remember. I wish you all prosperity and continued business growth.

Had the most amazing experience because of the most amazing guide!!
First of all the communication with Marry was really good , she answered very fast to all my questions.
I had the most amazing experience , we such a amazing group and a GREAT guide 'Micky'.
He went out of his way to see the animals we wanted, he had such a lovely vibe, one of my favorite people i met while in Tanzania. I don't think there is a better guide for a safari, he could see the animals from faaaaaar away. That was amazing. We all got allong so good so that made the 4 day safari unforgettable.
Saw the big 5, had the best time of my life!!

Fantastic experience! I can really recommend to make an unforgettable vacation
Mary arranged everything for me months in advance with great communication via WhatsApp. We only had to pay a tiny deposit before we arrived which was reassuring. Our driver/guide was called Barton and was brilliant and soo smiley! The luxury accommodation was incredible with animals walking around next to the lodge.
Unforgettable experience!

Excellent
Mary, the tour operator was great, very professional, understanding, and great person. The safari price as per my knowledge is vey reasonable compared to other safari prices. They also gave us 2 rooms everywhere. I did not pay a penny except for the guide tip, included food, stay, safari everything. Very very satisfied with their service. After lot of research, I found their price and quality best

Knowledgeable and friendly and charismatic with a warm and inviting demeanor. We loved Barton!
This was my first time visiting Tanzania and I am so grateful that I booked my safari with African Culture Adventures. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable of the wildlife and culture and was always able to answer our questions with a smile on his face. He made me feel very safe while maintaining the sense of adventure that I was looking for. Additionally, this is a Tanzanian owned company which I found to be particularly meaningful for me as a guest.
Ten out of ten would recommend booking with African Culture Adventures.
