Helpful and welcoming
Careen helped arrange everything from start to finish. I asked a lot of questions and she was always responsive and helpful. We, as a family, are so glad we booked with pumba reisen. Daniel, our guide, was always on hand and great and tracking down the animals. We saw some amazing sights during our trip and everything went perfectly.
Incredible once in a lifetime experience
Incredible experience of a Serengeti /Ngorongoro safari. Careen shared lots of information ahead of our journey and was excellent at keeping in touch. Our excellent guide, Daniel, was knowledgeable and we saw all the big 5 on our trip. We watched cheetah hunt pumba, lions mating, hyenas stalk a lion with its kill. We saw 2 leopards, a pride of over 50 lions, elephants, hippos, thousands of wildebeast and zepra and more. The accommodation Pumba Reisen arranged was excellent. The food was superb, with hot cooked meals for lunch every day, rather than cold sandwiches. They even provided us with a bottle of red wine! The service throughout was exceptional.
The jeep they used was relatively new, very comfortable and stylish! So many cup and binocular holders. Very practical.
Our trip was during the riots. We had no Internet and were uncertain whether we would be able to fly. Daniel reassured us daily and Careen had arranged a further night in a hotel in Arusha in case we needed it. Thankfully we didn't and we made it safely and on time to our flight onwards to Zanzibar.
I couldn't recommend these highly enough. The price was competitive and service second to none.

Completely in good hands
As part of my trip planning, I contacted 16 travel agencies. I had a very specific idea for our group. As crazy as it sounds, this was my fifth trip to Tanzania and my fifth ascent of Kilimanjaro. Therefore I knew exactly what we wanted. After all the agencies had submitted quotes and after writing many emails to clarify all outstanding questions, only three of the agencies remained on our short list. Pumba Reisen was one of them. While William's quote wasn't the cheapest of the three, he was 100% committed to implementing our ideas and that’s why I chose him. There was no "That's not possible!", no "We don't offer that!” and no "That will cost hundreds of euros more!" to our planning inquiries. Instead, the answer was: "We'll look at all the ideas together and see what we can implement." And it worked. We were already satisfied before we arrived.
During the trip itself, we also felt the attention to detail and the outstanding service and felt completely in good hands. We had a fantastic team on the Kilimanjaro Mountain, an exciting safari and excellent accommodations at all stops.
And we were not the only ones having a great time. We had the impression that William also took good care of his team on site and that it was very pleasant to work with him. That was very important to us.
For my sixth trip to Tanzania, I will be once again trusting William and his agency, Pumba Reisen. I'm really looking forward to it! This is the first time I've chosen the same agency twice. I was and still am very impressed.

Perfect organisation, empathetic staff.
We felt priviledhed to fulfill two family dreams in one journey. Safari in the Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and - even overnight - in the Serengeti was a splendid adventure with lots of animals and the Big Five. Absolutely untoppable was the hiking and climbing of Mount Kilimanjaro on a 8-day-tour. Our team was the most attentive and friendly team one can wish for. Nature is overwhelming and standing on top at su rise was one of the great moments in life. Even now, 2 years later, we still enjoy looking at our pictures and getting strength from the experience.
