Gives amazing stories and will tailor the tour to your preferences!
5/5

We went on a 2-day trip to Tarangire National Park and the Hadzabe/Datoga tribes. Israel made our experience so special!

Communication was smooth and pickup was on time. We saw many animals during Tarangire, and both Israel, and our driver Kelvin, told us fun facts about the animals we saw. The next day visiting the Hadzabe tribe was better - after a brief introduction to the tribe and their weapons, we went hunting with the leader and two other members of the tribe. They shot birds from the tops of the trees, climbed trees to get honey, and showed us their traditional dance. After that, we visited the Datoga tribe and saw how they fashioned nails into arrowheads.

The drive back was long, but Israel entertained us with countless stories about the history of Tanzania and its tribes. I especially loved learning about the Maasai and Meru tribe and their cultural practices.

Israel truly puts his heart and soul into his trips, and I hope people get to experience Tanzania with him.

5/5

Choosing a travel company in Tanzania is a massive decision, but from the first I connected with Tanzania Songbirds Safari team, I know I wasn't just booked a tour in Tanzania- but I was feeling to joining the family. To say this was a trip of a lifetime would be a massive understatement. From the moment they welcoming me for pre-order safari to the final word of say goodbye, it was perfection, deeply personal and authentic.
This company do not only show you animals but make you feel proud for nature.
Our guides Erick and Israel are quite simply understand of the nature in general., they have a good spot of animals including hiding animals on Savannah. They were funny, patient and incredibly professional and ensuring we were in the best position for make a perfect phots and best watching animals position.
The logistics were seamless, the car was comfortable, the best lunch that we were surprised in the middle of he wild, the accomodations they selected were stunning.
Tanzania Songbirds Safari is the best in the business, and they will turn your Africa and Tanzania dreams in to a best memories and unforgettable story in your lifetime. I left a piece of my heart in the African savanna and I owe Tanzania Songbirds Safari the all team, is the best travel company I've found.
I recommend it

Arusha National Park
5/5

This was our second time using Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. Isreal and Daudi didn't disappoint. They were so knowledgeable about the animals and land. The walking section definitely made the day perfect. Lunch at the lake was amazing and were the views. I appreciated our game driver's cadence for stops. We had a ton of great sightings and close encounters.

Do yourself a favor and book that excursion you’re considering!
5/5

You will not be disappointed when you book with Tanzania Songbirds Safari. The operators are generous with their time, knowledge, and care. Our team of 8 was attended to like family and it made a fabulous safari even more magical! We visited Arusha National Park, where we saw animals from the vehicle AND walked among them. Being on foot for safari in this beautiful land is a must if you have the opportunity! From start to finish, Israel was attentive and helpful. I have been on many excursions, safaris, adventures, etc and if you are in Arusha and looking for a perfect event, book with Israel. Look no further, feel confident in booking with them.

Israel is caring, considerate and great spotter!
5/5

On my first trip to Tanzania I went on two Safaris. My experience w this tour group was amazing! Professional and caring are just two words to describe this company and the leaders who run it.
We had an orientation the day before. Our driver was fantastic and also a great spotter! Israel was our guide and did a great job finding animals. He was full of information about the park and the wildlife we encountered. I will be back in Tanzania next year and will definitely hire this company for any and all expeditions and tours.

A must do experience!
5/5

We did a single day safari in Arusha National Park with Israel and Daudi as our guides, I’m sorry to say that I cannot remember our drivers names but that’s not because they weren’t exceptional I’m just bad with names. The entire team was top notch! On the drive to the park they asked us questions to get to know us, including what animals we would love to see, and once in the park both the guides and the drivers were so good at spotting animals and remembering which animals we really loved and pointing them out. This was my favorite safari experience and I will be booking with them the next time I’m in Tanzania!

Very good experience
5/5

With my boyfriend, we went on a two-day safari with Israel! We first visited Tarangire National Park, where we saw many elephants. In the evening, we stayed at a lovely hotel and enjoyed a great meal.

The next day, we went to the Ngorongoro Crater, which was absolutely impressive. Throughout the entire experience, we were accompanied by Israel, our guide, and a driver, and we truly appreciated their friendliness and the knowledge they shared with us. We had a wonderful time.

Wonderful one week safari with Israel
5/5

Having met Israel on my first trip to Tanzania two years ago and having stayed in close contact ever since, there was no question that if I ever brought my family on a safari in Tanzania, it would only be with him and his company. From the very first idea to the final day, this safari was absolutely perfect. The entire process was smooth, highly professional, and reliable, and everything was taken care of with great attention to detail.
The food was excellent – we enjoyed a warm lunch every day, plenty of drinks throughout the day, and most importantly: coffee. The accommodations were carefully selected, comfortable, and very clean, and they contributed greatly to the overall quality of the experience.

What truly made this safari exceptional, however, was Israel himself. His passion, dedication, and genuine commitment to giving us the best possible experience were evident every single day. He went above and beyond to help us see as much wildlife as possible, and thanks to his knowledge, experience, and instinct for being in the right place at the right time, we were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five.

On a personal level, Israel is an extraordinary person. His calm and patient nature, combined with his incredible knowledge and his willingness to answer every question—no matter how small—made our safari truly special. We learned so much about Tanzania’s wildlife, nature, national parks, culture, and the different tribes through him. I can proudly say that our friendship deepened even further during the time we spent together, which was filled with meaningful conversations and plenty of laughter.

My family and I felt safe, relaxed, and in the very best hands at all times. I would 100% recommend booking a safari with Israel to anyone looking for a high-quality, unforgettable, and deeply personal experience. I can only say Shukran, because the safari, our time in Tanzania, and Israel himself will forever hold a very special place in my heart.

Our guide Israel organized a perfect safari with incredible encounters of Tanz. wildlife and culture
5/5

Organizing a 7 day safari for my wife, my 2 grown-up girls and me to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti in combination with cultural experience at Arusha and visiting Datoga and Hadzabe tribe Israel exactly met our hopes of what to see. The direct communication via whatsapp made planing easy, reliable and smooth. Picking us up at the airport, Israel took care of everything, provided perfect logistics and amazing food and facilities. Chosing perfectly located, clean and comfortable accommodations with great food made each night truly relaxing. The accommodations in Serengeti were absolutely special! During the day, we were served hot lunch, soft drinks and coffee.
His knowledge of Tanzanian wildlife as well as Tanzian culture is incredible, we learned so much more than we ever would have expected. We saw all Big Five and had so many incredible encounters with wild animals due to his effort of showing us as much as possible. I couldn´t think of a better safari experience.
But most important, his friendly way of taking care of the group and his empathy made us feel like friends, not customers! As his company is evolving, he is meeting the wishes of his customers in a perfect way. His dedication to provide an outstanding experience from dawn to dusk is extraordinary.
All in all, my whole family would advise everyone to book the safari with Tanzania Songbirds Safari because I am sure you will have a unique authentic experience, worth so much more than the price requested and unforgettable for the rest of your life!
