La nature en grand
We traveled for 5 days with this local tour operator. We enjoyed nature in a big way, everything we expected happened, the herds of elephants, lions, leopards and even a hyena at breakfast skirting our camp.
What to say about safaris in Tanzania starts with a general impression, people are kind, smiling, welcoming.
On safari companies there are a large number of them and I think all tourists are happy.
this was our case, we had hotels and luxury tent camps of great qualities, a friendly driver.
We will undoubtedly return, because it is impossible to get tired of this landscape. an important detail however: the roads are very bad in the Ngorongoro and the serengeti, if by case you prefer the back in kit .... think about it. For the rest ...GO

Best trip of our lives!
We cannot show our appreciation enough to Philemon, our driver Bonny, and Aardvark Expeditions for our amazing time in Tanzania. The sights that we saw in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater are something that we will carry with us for the rest of our lives. The itinerary set forth by Aardvark expeditions was perfect. The communication with Philemon was great and he was able to answer all of questions and address our concerns. We can’t think of a single thing that we could improve with our itinerary. Our first time to Africa was made perfect by Philemon, Bonny and Aardvark Expeditions. We would 100% recommend Aardvark Expeditions if you want to explore the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater.
We specifically chose august for our Serengeti safari because we were hoping to see the great migration and we were lucky enough to experience this once in a lifetime moment! We owe it to Aardvark expedition because we truly feel their knowledge made all the difference

Excellent
Our Safari was planned and booked before the pandemic. We were not charged extra for our safari. We really enjoyed it. It was very busy. Animals were able to go through the camps so we were protected by the Masai. We saw a variety of animals throughout our stay. The jeeps were very sturdy. The tour guides were very knowledgable on the different animals. Journey there and back was tiring and stressful. Would recommend ardvark as a safari travel agent.

Dream come true with a reliable operator
4 days safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngongoro Crater on our 20th year marriage anniversary. We opted for a private tour, and it was the best choice with plenty room in the vehicle and only managing our time. Moison our guide was excellent, and everything went according to plan. We were lucky enough to see the Big 5 in one morning. The highlights were the cheetah, watching the sundown and sunrise in the Serengeti, the three lionesses with four calves right on the morning after we slept in Mawte Lodge, stopping the car, turning off the engine and just feel the vastness and lastly the sheer amount of life in the Ngonrogoro Crater. Thank you for Philemon for the organization and helping us out with our luggage setback. Only regret not opting for more safari days!

Amazing Experience
Amazing experience with Aardvark. Of course thanks to the beauty and richness of the landscapes and wildlife in Tanzania but also thanks to the professionalism and efficiency of Aardvark. From the first contact to the end of the trip, they were always very attentive, very flexible, making this 7-day private safari truly tailor-made. Our guide, very professional, very respectful of nature, trying to make us discover the best and our cook serving us dishes that we did not imagine possible in these conditions made this trip unforgettable.
We recommend Aardvark unreservedly.

Unforgettable Safari
Our first safari in Tanzania was unforgettable! Thanks to Philemon and Donatus (the best guide and Driver!), we had the privilege and the chance to discover the "Big Five". From accommodation to packed lunches, including the slopes, everything was excellent, Philemon offered us a layout of the parks adapted to our stay and our desires. Each hotel or lodge was wonderful and the staff smiling and always attentive. From Serengeti to Tarangire, the safari experience was magical! Donatus enthusiastically and energetically shares his knowledge of animals, and also taught us about Tanzanian culture. Our driver adapted to our requests, especially when we wanted to take pictures of this or that animal encountered in the savannah. The equipment of the 4x4 is extra, with the pop-up roof, the cooler and the charger, the radio which serves as an information base for the drivers, everything is there to have a great time! Aadvark's drivers are truly the best, they go out of their way to ensure you can see your favorite animals and those you may not know. They make you discover both the fauna and the flora with passion. I 100% recommend Aadvark Expeditions, their staff (Special mention to Donatus, a great meeting and good times to laugh!) and all their affiliate partners. This safari was one of the most beautiful moments of our lives!

Very helpful with all aspects of travel to Arusha from Safari to airport transfers
We booked the one day trip to the Ngorongoro Crater and the one day hike up Mount Kilimanjaro. The driver and guide were both excellent and the owner, Mr Philemon, was extremely helpful and also scheduled our airport transfers. Thank you for a great experience during our trip to Arusha.

Philemon Joel was excellent, friendly, honest and informative.
The Aardvark Safari was fantastic with the sighting of many large free-roaming animals within easy cell-phone camera range.
Ngorongoro Crater was spectacular as we arrived on a sharp ridge in the early morning fog then descended into the crater on a road with many switchbacks. The crater is huge encompassing over 100 square miles and is about 2000 feet deep and is now full of flora and fauna and many large African animals including lions. Our personal guide for the two of us was DONATUS NGOWI, and he was very knowledgeable, informative, and friendly and had a great sense of humor. He was well versed in geographic details, history and the names for all the wild creatures.
