Perfect Zanzibar Beach Escape
5/5

After our safari, Africa Joy Tours arranged a wonderful Zanzibar beach holiday that was exactly what we needed. The transfer from the airport was smooth, and the beachfront resort exceeded our expectations.We spent our days swimming in turquoise water, walking along white sandy beaches, and enjoying fresh seafood every evening. The team also organized a Stone Town tour that introduced us to Zanzibar’s fascinating history and culture.

What impressed us most was the personal attention we received throughout the trip. Whenever we had a question, someone was available to help immediately and with a warm smile.This holiday felt relaxing, luxurious, and completely hassle free. Africa Joy Tours created the perfect combination of adventure and beach relaxation, and we would gladly recommend them to couples and families alike.

Incredible Kilimanjaro Climb
5/5

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with Africa Joy Tours was a life-changing experience. Their mountain crew was professional, encouraging, and exceptionally well organized from the briefing day until our successful summit.

The guides carefully monitored our health and pace, which helped us acclimatize comfortably. The cooks prepared surprisingly tasty meals on the mountain, and the porters worked tirelessly while always remaining cheerful and supportive.
Reaching Uhuru Peak at sunrise was an emotional moment that I will never forget. I felt completely supported by the entire team, especially during the final challenging hours before the summit.

I highly recommend Africa Joy Tours to anyone planning a Kilimanjaro climb. Their experience, safety standards, and genuine care for climbers make them an outstanding company for this remarkable adventure.

Payment system is a nightmare; guides are good
3/5

The company’s payment system was still not working even after we arrived in Africa and began the trip. We had been unable to pay by credit card through their system for several months, and the company also appeared to be experiencing issues. They asked us to pay by wire transfer, which was not possible for some members of our group and did not feel secure.

Aside from the payment issues, our tour guides were knowledgeable, passionate, and excellent. We were very happy to see the animals and visit so many beautiful places.

Magical Ngorongoro Crater Adventure
5/5

Visiting the Ngorongoro Crater with Africa Joy Tours was one of the highlights of our African holiday. The scenery was breathtaking, and the organization of the tour was flawless from start to finish.

Our guide arrived on time each morning and shared fascinating stories about the crater’s wildlife and local culture. We were lucky to spot rhinos, lions, buffalo, and many beautiful bird species during a single day. The picnic lunch inside the crater was wonderfully arranged and allowed us to enjoy the landscape without rushing. The team’s attention to detail made us feel truly cared for throughout the trip.

We returned home with amazing photographs and unforgettable memories. Africa Joy Tours exceeded our expectations, and we would happily travel with them again on our next safari in East Africa.

Best Serengeti Safari Experience Ever
5/5

Our Serengeti safari with Africa Joy Tours was beyond anything we imagined. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel welcome and safe. Our guide had incredible knowledge about wildlife and patiently answered every question we asked. We saw lions resting under acacia trees, elephants crossing the road, and thousands of wildebeests during the migration. The vehicle was comfortable, clean, and perfect for photography. Every game drive felt like a new adventure.

The lodges selected by Africa Joy Tours were excellent, with friendly staff and delicious meals. We appreciated how smoothly the entire trip was organized without any stress.

This journey gave us memories that will stay with us forever. If you want an authentic Tanzanian safari with professional service and genuine hospitality, Africa Joy Tours is the perfect choice.

Good guys with good organization
5/5

My experience with this operator is exceptional. The ascent of Kili is very well organized. I would especially like to praise Bryson and Emmanuel who provided full support during the trek and on the night of the ascent itself. Also praise to all other team members of this operator. After a successful expedition to Kili, they organized a two-day safari to Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater with also good guides and drivers, which fully met all expectations. I recommend them with pleasure and hope to meet again on one of the longer safaris.

Amazing tours.
5/5

With Africa Joy Tours, we had an amazing five-day safari in Tanzania. Our guide, James, was very considerate of us and our needs. He was very calm and friendly, knew a lot about the animals, and cared about the tourists' well-being, even though we arrived during the rainy season. He picked us up from the airport, waited for us when we needed a break, was always on time, and wanted to make sure we had a wonderful day.
Many thanks to Clinton, the proprietor of Africa Joy Tours, and James.
