An experience of a lifetime
5/5

A friend of mine and I booked Safari Trackers Adventure for a safari experience in Tanzania. We went to see Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti! The experience on the 4-day tour was amazing!!! Charles, our guide really accommodated all of our interests so that we were able to see everything we wanted out in the wild! From lions and cheetahs, to even a kill!! We stayed at a lodge, which was absolutely breathtaking and I would highly recommend this company!!!

A positive, memorble experience of a lifetime awaits you with Charles Benjamin's skillful guidance.
5/5

Charles Benjamin is a superb guide. He knows where to find wildlife, has great informative insights, and a great personality--which is a great asset when you are together for a multi-day safari. We had a spectacular experience of a lifetime, seeing every wild animal we imagined we might see with Charles's insightful leadership on a 7-day safari. We stayed in luxury tents, with bed, western toilet, showers and cooked high-quality meals. The leopard, cheetahs, and hippos were most memorable. The rich array of birds Charles pointed out to us in Serengeti was also a treat. The rough roads were made bearable with his competent driving skills and underlined the fact you are in East Africa, removed from your normal world, experiencing the majesty of a sanctuary for wildlife. Charles's communication skills, responsiveness and willingness to accommodate our interests were essential elements in making each day of this memorable week a true, unique treat. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking a personalized experience seeing bountiful wildlife with competent commentary.

They offer just the best experience you can get in Tansania.
5/5

We had a great time on our seven day Safari, including Arusha NP, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. Because of Charles‘ great experience we were able to see a lot of animals really close.
Our favourite meal right now is Pilau rice because before, during and after our exciting days we got these great meals from our cook Herman, including African dishes. It was just delicious.
The internship Edward was also really nice.
The team is always really helpful, nice, funny and worried about your well-being.
We definitely recommend to book with Safari Trackers Adventures, also if you want to do a trip to Zanzibar, Dar Es Salaam or any other place in the country.
Hakuna matata!

Four day safari with Safari Trackers Adventure
5/5

I did a four day safari over March/April 2014 with Charles from Safari Trackers Adventure and loved every minute! After organising transfers from the airport I was offered optional activites for the day before my safari if I wanted something to do. We visited Tarangire national park, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. I stayed in lodges along the way and all were quite reasonable, with the lodge in the Seregeti being an absolute highlight - I only wish I had more time to enjoy it! Charles was professional, courteous and keen to show us everything we wanted to see in the parks. Charles also knew a great deal about the different animals, so we learnt a lot as well! The trip I purchased was good value and all inclusive, and while I was nervous about transferring money internationally for a deposit, I am pleased to say I no problems whatsoever :) I found it so hard to choose a safari operator in Tanzania, but am certainly happy I made the decision to travel with Safari Trackers Adventure! We saw the big 5 plus much more and if you're interested in seeing some of my safari shots, you can do so on Instagram by searching for "leahrobrien"

It was just AWESOME!!
5/5

The Safari:
After we had arrived in Arusha, Charles picked us up and took us to our hotel. We did the 7-days safari including Arusha NP, Lake Manyara NP, Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro Crater, and of course Serengeti NP. We had a wonderful time and got really impressed by the sheer number of animals we have seen and the incredible and overwhelming scenery.
Things not to forget:
- Binoculars. Although most of the time, there were animals even right next to our car, you might become curios about things in the distance, too.
- Warm clothes for colder days. Especially the crater can become a bit chilliy once in a while + long sleeves/pants is a natural mosquito protection. For me one hoody and one pair of cargo pants was enough.
- Malaria prophylaxis. You don't want to be worried and put yourself on the line.
- Water purifying pills. Although you get enough bottled drinking water during the safari, eventually you might be glad to have some in addition.
- Enough money for tips ;)
In addition:
Since we didn't have a good start in Tanzania which lead to temporary complications, Charles was more than helpful and sympathetic! He and his team - the excellent cook Herman and the always helping trainee Edwin - have made our trip unforgettable! They helped us out whenever they could and made us feel welcome and to be amongst friends.

A brilliant Experience!!
5/5

Went on Safari in March, done the 2 day safari experience which was 1 day in Tarangire National Park and 1 day in Ngorongoro crater. Met our tour guide Charles in Arusha, he was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpfull. Picked us up from our hostel in the safari jeep and brought us for our first day to Tarangire National Park. Takes about 2-3 hours to get to the park from Arusha, in which time Charles told us lots of things about Tanzania, Culture, All the national parks and about the Massai tribes whose villages we seen along the way.
Tarangire park is awash with wildlife, Giraffe, Gazelle,Monkeys, lots of Elephants and we even got to see a small pride of lions there. On many occasions we got to get very close to the animals, one occasion being a family of about 50 elephants crossed our track right where we parked up. The tour of the park last about 5-6 hours and then we made our way out and went to our next destination, which was a camp site looking over Lake Manyara.
The campsite is very clean, has good food/beer and has a spectacular view overlooking the plains and lake Manyara, catching the sunrise from here is an amazing experience in itself. Also for those who like stargazing its also a really nice area because there is little light disruption.
Next day we went to Ngorongoro crater, another amazing location. Zebra, Rhino, Buffalo,Hyenas, Wildebeast, Lions and Cheetahs are all here. We were lucky enough to come across a fresh lion kill and see a pregnant lioness chasing off a pack of hyenas.
The whole experience with this safari company was absolutly brilliant, the service provided from having a knowledgeable and experienced guide, nice place to stay, good food and nice packed lunches, a comfortable jeep and all at very very good price is just second to none. My only regret is not spending more time there and going to see the Serenghetti. I wish Charles the best of luck in the future, he takes great pride in his company and its reputation and this shows with the excellent service.
Regards, Martin from Ireland

Amazing adventure... Amazing Tanzania...
4/5

Me my friend decided to book the 5-days safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Safari Trackers Adventures. Although at first we were a bit concerned since the price was quite lower than other tour operators offered us for the same itinerary, things came out great!
Very friendly, helpful and efficient staff, with lots of information for both animals and places visited - a real pleasure to be with. The accommodation was mostly basic camping but good (we fell in love with the Simba public campsite in the rim of Ngorongoro Crater where we were on New Year's Eve!!).
I would recommend this company to all people with a sense of adventure and fun, who don't want to spend a fortune but want to get the most out of such a trip.

Excellent Service and price offers.
5/5

Me and my friend have traveled in some East African countries but never had the best service like what we got from Safari Trackers Adventure.
All the arrangements were good and the prices also was reasonable and affordable.

Charles (the Safari Organizer) was very helpful to us, He gave us other more advises according to our budget and time since he asked us about our interests and our budgets he gave us a very good Itinerary.
Excellent Service
