Simply the best experience
5/5

5 stars all the way. Like, many others we were overwhelmed with the options for picking a safari company. We are a family of 5 including 3 kids and wanted an amazing but budget safari option. Focus in Africa and Nelson definitely gave us the best price - another company told me their price "doesn't even make sense to me." Nelson was responsive, flexible, and kind both in-person and through regular communication on WhatsApp including during our safari.

The experience itself was simply the best. Our driver / guide Kennedy was as professional and kind as they get. He was incredible at finding animals often with us being first. He got to know our kids and customized our schedule and needs with a daily check-in. The vehicle and safari experience were once-in-a-lifetime and I imagine better than people who paid much more. Our cook, Prospect, was also fantastic serving up warm, fresh, and unique vegetarian meals each day.

We also stayed 4 nights at Nelson's hostel, Arusha Safari Hostel, and had a wonderful time! His family and staff treated us like family, made tasty meals, and provided a warm, comfortable place to call home.

Do not hesitate to use Focus in Africa!

The communication was prompt right from the start. Nelson was prompt with my queries. The safari itself was very well organised and planned. There were no delays or any issues with respect to food, stay.

The guide was wonderful! Happened to see amazing wildlife in action.

Relaxed and Experienced
5/5

We had a fantastic experience seing Tarangire-Ngorongoro-Serengeti-Manyara. Peter, our guide willingly shared interesting insights on the way, and was a really pleaseant person to spend these days with. We saw all the big five except for leopard, and a lot of the animals were only a couple of meter away. Our chef Innocent also provided us good meals throughout our tour, and was also a very nice person to spend time with.

The communication with Focus in Africa went really smooth. Although we were unused to do reservations and bookings via Whatsapp, they always delivered what was agreed. Keep in mind that for a budget safari, one have to have realistic expectations regarding accommodation. We slept in tents for two nights, but this also allowed for wildlife experiences during night time. We think that the Focus in Africa delivered exceptional value for their price.

Organised, reachable anytime, fun
5/5

This my first safari and I will never forget it.
We booked the tour through Nelson who explained everything to us and made it easy to decide to do the safari through him.
Our driver/guide was Bryson and our cooks name was Prosper. They were nothing but excellent, fun and organised everything perfectly.
We did a shared safari with three others for 5 days. 1day Taragire, 2+3d Serengeti, 4d Ngorongoro, 5d Lake Manyara. We slept two nights in tents and two nights in little houses. We had most of the time warm water to shower. The facilities were clean and the food amazing! We all gained weight. They had water prepared for us every day and Bryson drove very safe and stopped for everything we wanted to see or did another angle for the pictures. He had really patience with us and could explain every animal we saw.
There is honestly nothing negative or to complain. Everything was very well communicated with us and I loved it. It cost us 850 dollar each + tips
