Amazing!!!
4/5

Wonderful trip to Tanzania with excellent organization and very professional Guides
We booked our trip Tanzania with Taste of Afrika Safaris the tour of 11 days. Taste of Afrika
designed a wonderful trip with private guide and porters for hiking Mount Kilimanjaro and
mid rage tour to the most famous National Parks in Tanzania. The organization of the whole
trip was excellent, airport transfers to and from the hotel, accommodation and activities. The
guides and porters were very knowledgeable and told us a lot about the countries, their
history, people, economy and much more. We did 6 days hiking Mount Kilimanjaro and 5
days safari tour, we had a chance to see the Black Rhino in Ngorongoro Crater and it was a
really amazing! We had tremendous further game drives in Tarangire park, Serengeti park,
Lake Manyara and we saw very many animals, really, we did the Big Five trip. We had much
more activities than planned and enjoyed very much.
Our request of the accommodation throughout the hiking and safari in different parks were
fully arranged and booked according to our wishes, we stayed in mid-range budgeted lodges
and tented camps. We had clean rooms, nice foods and friendly staff in all places we spent
except in one lodge in Tarangire during the dinner our chef forgot that one of us was
vegeterian but was not a big deal because we got special vegeterian meal for my Dad .
Taste of Afrika Safaris helped us to get PCR test in Serengeti National Park, Moses our Guide
drove us in the morning hours after our sunrise game drive to the PCR testing Center in
Seronera in Serengeti National Park. Seka and Charles from the office communicated the whole
time with us so we felt very safe. We strongly recommend taste of afrika to everyone planning
your trip to Tanzania.

Great one Day trips
5/5

We booked 2 trips with Taste Of Afrika Safaris. Materuni Waterfall & Hotsprings Kikuletwa. It was great - comunication with Seka (We had problem with swift transation, Seka was very understanding, regarding this problem).
Our guide Moses- was fantastic, we shared a lot of stories not only about trips, but also regarding Life, culture and Tanzania. Very Professional, and easy going guy.
We had also Emmanuel as our guide in Materuni- his knowledge about The place was great. We visited his village for a coffee tour, we were only 2 people there, and still have a pleasure to meet several people from The village singing for us and making coffee together.
Also worth to notice- The best prices!

Thank you for a great life time experience
5/5

We had the greatest safari ever with 'taste of africa safaris'. Moses, our safari guide was very informative about the wilds and amazing during the whole safari. Seka has been our first contact when searching for our first trip to Tanzania in Africa. He was very patient with us. We had alot of questions concerning our first trip to Tanzania. During Corona pandemic time we were skeptic to go but all our questions and wishes were well answered and our safari was super organised by this company. They even provided extra corona/covid-19 insurance during our safari even though we''´ were already insured from our Country. Considering the communication, information and paymentt method me and my husband have been very happy and satisfied with the payment procedure. They even accepted paypal payment as extra payment method. All lodges and tented camps were booked for us. There it was clean and we could also take hot showers. In total we had a good times with the friendly staff, good meals from Breakfast to diner. We really appreciate and recommend this Company for providing good, professional service reasonable priced. Believe me, you won't regret it. Thank you Moses & Seka. We hope to meet you next year for our Kilimanjaro trekking.
Greetings from Germany, Frankfurt -

In general all good, but sometimes a bit disorganized
4/5

We had really great safari and this is achievement on our guide!
Moses (https://www.facebook.com/moses.nnko.50) is really great guy, excellent driver, honest person and just very positive person. He made our trip, he knows where to find animals and how to get to them. It's not his bad but couple times because payments were not complete, we were waiting for an hour or so in front of the gates into national parks.
Organization before trip were a bit un organized as well, for example we were trying to get hotels conformations for a month (one month took us to get conformations from the hotels). With one camp we found the wrong dates and highlight this. in the end when we came to the camp nobody was there and we were needed to go to another camp. Thanks again to Moses (our guide) he was able to sort this out

Incredible 2 day safari - great for your first safari
5/5

We had an incredible experience on our 2 day safari in Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater with Taste of Afrika. From start to finish everything was well-organised by the company - Seka kept us well-informed and arranged absolutely everything! From airport pick-up and drop-off, lovely hotels (particularly Farm of Dreams, wow) with such friendly staff, tasty food, to the safari experience itself, we couldn't have asked for a better service. Temba was a brilliant guide on our travels, telling us so many interesting facts about the local flora and fauna, getting us into great positions to see the animals, and driving very adeptly over the sometimes bumpy ground. As a first safari experience we couldn't have been happier, and we'd highly recommend this short safari to other first-timers. We'll be signing-up to a longer one next time for sure.

Great guide
5/5

We took the 1-day hike with Taste of Afrika and everything worked just fine: our driver, John, picked us in Arusha. He was punctual, helpful and overall very nice. Our guide, Peter, was also a plus: he was funny and made the climb easier with his good mood.

Regarding the experience itself, we were expecting more of the climb and views - we got cloudy weather, which didn’t help.

Park entrance fees are perhaps a bit expensive for the one day tour, which brings the overall cost up too. But I’d recommend it anyway, if you’re planning a trip in the area - and, if so, Taste of Afrika will do the job just fine.

Our guide & driver Moses was the best guide we could ever wish for.
4/5

The communication before the safari was excellent. We got to plan our safari exactly based on our needs and desires. There were some slight changes in accommodation but we were informed about everything in advance and it was actually an upgrade :)
The safari itself was an amazing experience! Our guide&driver Moses was the best guide we could ever wish for. Moses is a very nice person. He went above and beyond and work very hard to show us all the animals and made our time and money totally worth!
We faced some problems with payment but in the end, it was resolved and I believe Taste of Afrike won't allow this to happen in the future.

great 7 days safari and 1 day Kilimanjaro with Taste of Afrika
5/5

we would like to thank Seka for the organisation of our 8 days experience in north Tanzania. everything was great: the itinerary and above all the choice of the lodges
it was very difficult for us from France to organise our trip in Tanzania on our own, as we were used to do in other countries. Seka helped us and the result was above our expectations.

The perfect day out
5/5

Seka picked us up from our accommodation on the morning of our trip and took us up to the village of Materuni. There we picked up our tour guide and started our hike to the waterfall. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and a master at spotting chameleons which was a bonus! When we got to the waterfall we had time to relax and appreciate the view before we changed and ventured into the fresh Kilimanjaro water. After this we proceeded to the coffee tour where we were quickly served a delicious hot meal before being given the chance to process coffee beans in the traditional chagga way. Overall our tour exceed my expectations. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and cannot complain about the price. I would definitely recommend taste of Africa tours to anyone who wants an immersive tourist experience. Thank you Seka for the memories!
