We were with Wilson, our perfect guide. He was kind and very nice. He introduced the wild world to us and explained all the animals we saw. He even saw animals from very far and thaks to his abilities we managed to see almost every animal from big 5. Also the hotels were perfect and the lunch boxes. We are very thankful to meet them.

Magical moments in Tanzania
This was my third safari using Tropical Trails and I hope to go again next year. The communication with the office is always quick and efficient. My driver Wilson for the last two is excellent. He is a safe driver and is full of information about the area and culture. He is also an excellent spotter of birds and wild life and we saw some amazing sights. He was always patient and when my daughter desperately wanted to photograph a hippo yawning we waited twenty minutes for the magical event. Nothing was too much trouble.

Great Mt Meru climb and safari
We booked the four-day hike of Mt Meru and a six-day safari with Tropical Trails and can highly recommend this company! Service was efficient and friendly, Eliaika was of great heao before and during the trip, making sure that everything goes well. Our mountain crew during the hike was more than excellent, especially our mountain guide Saladini and the cook Charles made an extraordinary job. We can highly recommend them if you plan to climb Mt Meru or Kili.
The safari was an unforgettable experience, the lodges we stayed in were all perfect! And we were lucky to see lots of wildlife, including the big 5 :)

A wonderful safari experience with tropical trails
Tropcal trails was recommended to us via friends. We booked a safari for six via e-mail. Tropical trails was very efficient and rapid in their communication and did everything they could to fulfill our wishes. The trip we finally choose looked very good on paper and we started our trip with high expectations. The trip wasindeed wonderfull,with a very good and frienly service, very good lodges and a guide/driver who was highly professional. The only minor point is that the compay works with karama lodge in Arusha as a starting point. This is a good lodge but cannot match the lodges during our trip.

Perfect organisation. Awesome Maasai guide and driver
Even though expectations were really high, after having had a great communication via email and phone with Tropical Trails (Eliaika was super helpful), our guide and driver, Ole the Maasai, was a superb positive surprise! He knew every place, every plant and animal, and always tried to please us, take us out of the touristic path and show us the local culture. Thx so much for everything!

Tropical Trails Safari company is fantastic!
We just returned from a Tanzanian safari, 3 weeks in September 2015. We highly recommend Tropical Trails Safari company. Their prices are very reasonable, excellent value for the money! Local company, so our money stays local. They also started a children's trust for education & a % of your money goes to them. Very responsible in the tourist industry. Schola Ungele made all our arrangements which were fabulous! She really worked with us until we had exactly what we wanted. Our guide was Ole & he was the best, took us where we wanted, when we wanted & spent as much time as we wanted. He's a fountain of information, also knows all the birds! We wanted a combo of hotel & tent camps, photography & walking safaris. Schola arranged it al,l plus flights to Zanzibar. This was our first time handing money to a stranger to make arrangements for us, so we were a little nervous, but Tropical Trails did it all & were very trustworthy! Also, just very nice people to work with! Our experience was fantastic & we would travel with them again in a second!

Our safari trip was good organized, with well selected lodges and a very very friendly guide.
Our family did a 6 day Safari Trip to the Serengeti/Ngorongoro Crater/Manyara Nationalpark, which was more spectacular than we could have imagined. Our safari guide Oli knew a lot about the national parks and wildlife. The lodges served excellent meals and the organization Tropical Trails was always available for any questions or wishes. We had an amazing time!!
A most enjoyable experience, whose memories we will treasure.
