Once in a lifetime experience!
We had a wonderful 5-days safari tour with Nelson's Team. Smooth start with pick-up from bus station and staying at Nelson's hostel with a great dinner waiting for us after a long journey from Dar Es Salaam. The whole trip was very well organized and prepared. Except of small delay caused by waiting for other participant, everything went smoothly. We had a great guide (Herman) who had a huge knowledge about animals and was excellent in finding them (we have seen almost all and the great highlight was noticing a hidden gem: tree-climbing lion. The car was comfy, the route was perfectly selected by our driver (kept us interested all the time!). Sleeping on camps was a huge part of this experience and we would not change it for any other accomodation (a great change to enjoy some fire, watch stars and even meet hiena in a toilet!). The food was decent - simple, but joyful. The whole trip was simply amazing and I would definitely recommend it as the thing you cannot miss in Tanzania.

5 days tour of the big parks! Epic Adventure
This was the best last minute decision we made in our whole time in Africa.
Nelson made our trip and experience amazing. No problem to big and all done with easy chilled vibe.
We had an awesome time on this well organised trip. We seen such a variety of animals and landscapes I've dreamed of for many years.
Vehicles, accomodation and food were great quality and the guides both knowledgeable and fun.
I would highly recommend the trip we did taking in Serengeti - Ngorongoro - Manyara - and more!
Nelson and his team can make things work for whatever your needs are.
We used him again to take a friend a month after we did.
Get it booked and enjoy the experience for very good price.

Four day safari serengeti
I took the four day safari to serengeti. First I slept in the lionsgatehostel which was great. Clean rooms, good food and great hosts. The safari continued along this line, a great chef which allows for dietary wishes, a skilled guide and a comfy car. The campsites were neat (and wild) as well. The safari was a great succes as we basically saw every animal along the way, and food and sleeping was great too. Four days felt just right, any shorter oe longer would have felt too short or too long. Four days was just right. In conclusion, I would greatly recommend the four day serengeti trip!

Tarangire & Ngorongoro
First of it all I wanna to say Thanks a lot to Focus In Africa!
It was my second time to do safari and it was better then first time.
I found the companies in internet, texted them and Focus in Africa was one of first to answer me and offer to me free trasfer from Kilimanjaro airport , disribe details ahead trip give some options and give a good price.
Nelson is director of the company nice person to do deal with him is pleasant.
When we arrived to airport his driver pic up us and bring to his office. Nelson explained everything and answered for our questons. We made a deposit equel 1/4 of all prcice another part pay we did befor 20min our trip started.
Safari
It was two days group safari we visited Tarangire and NgoroNgoro Crater.
First day was Tarangire. We waked up at 6^00 am driver of company picked up us at 6:30 and bring to gathering place.
Driving to Tarangire spent about two hours anyway we were one first of tourists cars there only one car was erlier then we was.
Our Guide was imazing he knows a lot of the park and animals , he is capability to discover and find out animals every where - we saw a cheetah at Tarangire it was far from us but we used a binoculars to see it.
Also we saw how lions eatiing - look at pthoto it was amazining!
There was nigth at tent camp with fanastic wiev to Maniara Lake. There we comfortable beds in tent , shower with warm water and good dinner.
Second day we were waked up at 5:40 took a breakfast and start our trip to Ngorongoro. Just look at photos ^) I tired to write a reviwe :-)
What can be better
- No one told us about binocilars there was only one for a car , we could rented
- We gave tip for our guide and he said that he sloud share it with his boss and need more (not Nelson one more boss at tent camp)

Perfect Experience
I had a wonderful experience climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with Focus in Africa! Every day was an absolute pleasure: the food was delicious and we reached the summit right as the sun was coming up over the horizon. Perfect timing and a perfect experience.

Exceeded Expectations
The safari Exceeded Expectations!!!! Great job by Nelson and the team to accomadate our every need at their bed & breakfast prior to safari and night after. They were very kind and welcoming people. Cooked amazing meals and made sure our rooms had everything we needed during our stay. Safari itself surprised me on how fun it was. The guides did an excellent job getting us within meters of all the big cats and all other animals. It was so good that I will be returning in the future with my family to share this experience with them. Thank you Nelson and team

Very good value for money !
Perfect, great food and nice driver. Observation of many animals and perfect camping nights. I recommend Nelson and Focus in Africa!
3-day safari from Serengeti to Ngorongoro crater. Everything went very well, the driver is kind and helpful and is happy to comment on our stops and observations. The cook spoiled us with generous and typical dishes, morning, noon and evening! The two nights camping under the tents were incredible. We saw many animals and breathtaking landscapes. If you are an adventurer and have a tighter budget, you can go to Nelson with your eyes closed!

Best option for a budget safari
Excellent safari. I was able to communicate with Nelson before the trip through WhatApp.
We did 3 days 2 nights in the Serengeti and ngorongoro crater. The driver was great and got always found perfect places for us to stuff to see the animals.
The cook made for very tasty meals and made sure that we always had enough food.
Camp sites where basic but included everything we needed.
