Kanuth & team are attentive, friendly guides & drivers who ensure a safe & memorable safari!
We have been on 3 safaris to Mikumi managed by Kanuth Adventures and have been thoroughly pleased with planning, communications, hotel choices, driving safety and the knowledge of each guide. We look forward to more great safari adventures with them.

The best Safari in Tanzania
Tarimo has been very kind and patient to answer to all my questions and doubts.
He wasn't able to organise a group so we have joined another group Wanyama Safari, the driver and the cook were very kind.
We have seen almost all the big 4 expect the rino.
If I have the possibility I will come back!

The best time in Tanzania, I highly recommend it!!!
We chose Safari: 4-Day Tarangire -Serengeti -Ngorongoro Big Five Safari in configuration for 4 people.
The office was found by two additional people. The atmosphere with the Mosses guide and chef Erick the best! The cook cooked the most delicious dishes we ate in Tanzania. We saw a big five (but a rhino was very far away) and all other animals. Mosses told us a lot about animals and Tanzania. We spent the night at the campsites, we are very happy and recommend it with all my heart!

Very quick and professional trip organisation for good price
I recommend this company for everybody. We had two days Safari in Mikumi park. We travel with child 9 years old. We came to Dar-Es-Salam and I wrote e-mail to this company. They answered very fast and came to our hotel at same day, and next day we went to park. Also they took us before to supermarket. From all that I watched the price was the best. The guide was very professional and caring. We felt safe.
The car was without air condition, but with opened windows was very comfortable.
The food was good.
We lived in a house in the park. Fed the monkeys, and in the morning came the giraffes. We have seen many animals - lions, elephants, hippos, giraffes and others.
Thank you very much for the professional work and quick trip organization.

Great organization, great guide and great chef - everything we needed and exceeded our expectations.
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience with the Kanuth adventure Safari in the end of January. They picked us up from our village near Arusha early in the morning and dropped us there at the end. We went for four days and three nights observing Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater. Thanks to our driver Vumi we saw and learned a lot for all the big five and much more of the wild life in Tanzania. We were lucky to see leopard a couple of times from really close, lions eating, playing and resting right next to our car, elephant crossing our way and even a Wildebeast giving birth ten meters away from us.
The campsites were great and really natural. We were able to listen to the wild life throughout the whole night. We had really amazing meals included the whole time and had a great chance to taste traditional Tanzanian food made by our cook Eric. We were amazed by his ability to make five star meals looking and tasting wonderful in the middle of the national parks.
I think we made the best possible choice. Definitely recommend it!
Thanks again guys!

Excellent, recommend
We had a two-day tour with Kanuth Safaries to Zanzibar and the city of Dar Es Salaam. It was excellent!! I definitely recommend Kanuth travel agent. Tarimo is very responsible from the beginning of the communication and recommendation, he is also very professional and efficient. This is the only agent that I had a second consultation when I secured the dates of traveling. The tour guides during the trip are also fantastic! in Zanzibar, they are wearing a professional uniform and the introduction of the sights is elaborated! We have seen so many beautiful places in a day! In city, the tour guide took us to many local markets and we were able to understand the people and culture better. It was full of fun!! I really enjoyed my two days in Tanzania with Kanuth, and if I have an opportunity to go there again for other safaris, I will be happy to re-book with this agent.

Incredible, saw all the animals, Vumi our driver was flexible and kind, Eric our cook was amazing!!
My 4 friends and I did a lot of research and quote requests on SafariBookings before reaching the decision to go with Kanuth. WE NEVER LOOKED BACK. We chose the 4 day 3 night Serengeti Safari and chose to camp all 3 nights. The price point for this safari was perfect and we were a little worried how the quality would be sacrificed but nothing about this safari felt budget. I cannot say enough good things about our driver Vumi or our cook Eric. Vumi, our driver, was in the loop with all the other drivers and would radio over when we saw something or vis versa then speeding along to ensure we saw whatever animal he was told about. He quickly learned what we loved seeing and skillfully drove us around ensuring we got the most of our days! Eric, our cook, made us feel very special to have a private chef with us. We had a vegetarian on the trip and all meals had multiple spectacular options for everyone! The Ngorongoro campsite was amazing and many other groups were there as well, the Serengeti one was nice as well with a few other groups (there is no fence and animals are around you all night just a heads up!), and the Tarangire one we were the only people and everything was fine but it was a little more rough. We would recommend Kanuth Safaris and particularly Vumi and Eric to everyone!

The BEST!!!!
Kanuth Adventure Safaris is the best! From the beginning Kanuth has been extremely helpful and patient in answering all my questions. Many of the operators I had asked told me the itinerary I wanted to do was not possible since the sights were too far ( I wanted Tarangire, visit Mto wa Mbu village, climb Ol Doinyo Lengai, Serengati, Lake Natron, Ngorongoro and to hunt with the Hazabe in 8 days), but Kanuth said it was doable and even drove my group to the Kilimanjaro airport after the safari ended for no extra cost.
Throughout the communication I felt like I could count on him to help solve my problems. Since I was going to Egypt after Tanzania, I had to bring a suitcase because my trip was so long. I knew the suitcase wouldn't fit in the safari truck and asked Kanuth to help. He said I can leave the suitcase in his Arusha office and pick it up on the way to Kilimanjaro airport. He was truly a lifesaver!
We were so lucky to have Kanuth as our driver and guide (something he didn't reveal until the end of the trip because he didn't want us to feel uncomfortable about traveling with the managing director. He's very knowledgable and I loved to chat with him and shower him with questions. With Kanuth's help, we successfully spotted all of the Big Five in just 8 days!
The cook Eric was also a superstar. He managed to present delicious food including handmade pizza and quiche using the simplest equipments. He'd also ask us what we would like to eat and prepare the meals accordingly. He's very observant and knows from what we have left over what we didn't like to eat. He'd then adjust the food served.
Before the start of our safari, Emirates lost my friend's luggage. Kanuth assisted us by calling Emirates constantly and telling them how they can deliver the luggage to us. Kanuth was more than just our guide and driver, he was also a friend.
All in all, Kanuth is my go to in Tanzania and I definitely recommend to all my friends and family. Thank you Kanuth for giving me and my friends the time of our lives in Tanzania!!

Short 3 day Safari to Selous
The Kanuth team were really good in arranging our trip. We gave them our dates and they created a list of activities for us which included pick up/drop off from and to the airport, a boat safari, walking safari and a traditional driving safari which lasted most of the day . We paid a deposit and then paid the rest of the fee on arrival. We went with a cheaper option for accommodation and stayed at HippoCamp just outside of the Game Reserve which was adequate enough and clean... It is very basic but we had a toilet and shower which we didn't expect.
Our chef was great, friendly and cooked some great food! even including great bottle of white wine on our last night. All the staff at HippoCamp were great and very friendly. We managed to see Hippos, Lions, Giraffes, Zebras, Buffalo, Crocs and lots of birds. We sadly missed out on seeing any Elephants Our driver on safari was great and knowledgable in regards to the animals. The boat and walking safari were also very fun and interesting. We would return. Although be aware the drive from Dar Es Saalem takes around 6 hours... It was nice to see the country on the drive but there is also a possibility to fly to Selous which is a 20minute trip but it costs around $150 Per Person.

Lots of animals, some problems
Our guide was knowledgeable and we saw some great wildlife. We did have mechanical issues with the vehicle along with some delays because of permit issues and mechanical problems. The food was very good
