Stunning
The safari was unique and beautiful. You can't imagine it if you haven't seen it.
We felt comfortable from start to finish. The guides, the cooks and the contact/support were simply great. In addition, it was also very attractively priced

Excellent safari for a budget price
I chose to book with Focus in Africa literally last minute (1 day in advance). Ver quick response and they provided me with a free taxi driver for settling the payment. I went on 4 day safari with a group of 5 random people. We visited Tarangire 1 day, Serengeti 2 days and Ngorongoro 1 day. Did a lot of driving, also early morning, saw amazing amount of animals. Our guide Augustine was very good, took super care of us and was also fun and joking. I dont remember cooks name, but the food was delicious and always plenty of it. I booked stay in the tents, but for 2 nights we stayed in the rooms (on second night we were upgraded due to possible rain, very nice surprise). Also the night in the tent was comfortable. Totally recommended! The only thing I could wish - if the company would offer to rent binoculars.

Wonderful Safari for very fair price
We did the 3 days safari to serengeti and ngorongoro crater and it was one of the best travels we had so far.
The safari was very well organized and explained by Nelson. We got a hostel and transport from the airport included in the safari-tour.
In the next day our driver Steward picked us up there. He knows alot of things about the areas and the animals and our chef William cooked delicious food for us.
The accomentation was in tents in some like camping areas which was also very good organized and handled.
Regarding the animals: We didn’t expect that we will see such an amount of them and such vaerity. It was just stunning and amazing.
All in all i just can say that the safari was totally worth it - we would do it again.

Amazing!
Solo female traveller. Did the four day/three night safari - Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Trip was affordable and suitably adventurous (camping in the middle of the Serengeti was a highlight). The food was plentiful and good hearty camp fare. A huge shout out to our guide Augustine who was knowledgeable, patient, kind and fun. Focus in Africa took care of everything from airport pick up and accommodation the night prior to the tour. Arusha Safari Hostel were amazing and I ended up staying three nights on my return. They made me feel like part of the family and getting to spend Christmas day with them made me so very happy. Highly recommend!
Organized, caring and efficient
We had a 5 day safari in tarangine Park, serengeti, ngorongoro crater and lake manyara. One adult and 2 kids. All of it was amazing. Our guides, Shuma and Brison were very helpful and took care of us. They tried with all their enthusiasm to be able to see all animals. With their persistence we saw the big 5 and even saw leopard and cheetah! They gave good information and answered to all our questions. Peter, the cook, made very tasty food for us. Nelson, the organiser, solved effectively and quickly any difficulties even apart from the safari. They all made us feel safe and welcomed to this beautiful country. I wish them all the best and I recommend the tour to anyone who is interested to go. Thanks a lot for everything

Highly recommended - an amazing Safari experience, well organised and brilliant value
Our family group of 4 did 4 day, 3 night camping Safari. Nelson was an excellent communicator. All the arrangements including accommodation went perfectly, including extra night accommodation at the end of our Safari and taxi to the airport at 4am! Our driver/guide Bryson was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable and answered all our questions but perhaps could take a bit more initiative in sharing information about the animals etc He was an extremely careful considerate driver. Prosper our cook produced amazing meals, provided brilliant vegetarian options and fed us very well indeed. Nelson can be very proud of the professional and well organized company he is running. Highly recommended and excellent value for money compared to other Safari providers we looked at.

Nelson is a strong communicator with a strong team and network.
Strongly recommend this provider. Booked a 4 day group safari with them and found the following really strong:
1. Communication - very easy to work with them on the logistics from airport pick up to airport drop off. Also they were flexible on some of our asks such as vegetarian food.
2. Safari tour and guide - guide was knowledgeable and patient. We saw lots of animals including Rhino and leopard which can be more difficult to find. Bryson was super.
3. Food - very delicious and high quantities. They were also able yo accommodate vegetarians. Prosper, the chef, was great.
4. Lodgings - mix of tent camping and one night in sleep huts on a mountain overlooking Rift valley. Super cool to sleep so close to nature and animals.
5. Community vibe - they work locally with taxi drivers and hostel providers, so feels better integrated with the Arusha community
Overall exceeded my expectations and really recommend!
