Experience of a lifetime! Thanks to Robert, Christopher and Gabriel!
My wife and I went for a trip to East Africa and we booked a Safari in Tanzania with Oltumure. From the first email exchange with Robert to our drop off at Kilimanjaro Airport, every moment was just excellent. Robert was very responsive by email. Most importantly, he was very trustworthy as we sent him most of the due amount weeks before our arrival. The first day we were picked up at the Kenyan border and dropped at our hotel in Arusha which was really good actually. The next morning we were introduced to Christopher our guide for the following 4 days. Christopher was very knowledgeable about wildlife in Serengeti and Ngorongoro and chatting with him was really pleasant. Thanks to him, we enjoyed every single moment in the Savannah and managed to see the big fives and some stunning sceneries. Also his driving made us feeling very safe. The camping equipment we were provided was really good and Gabriel our cook was actually a Chef!! To be honest, we were not expecting such an amazing experience given the price we were quoted. It was excellent value for money.

Best Value, Marvelous experience
We, 2 persons, had a 5 day/4night Tarangire/Serengeti/Ngorongoro Safari with Oltumure Tours & Safaris.
Robert and his team were concetrated to cover our needs and managed to exeed our expectations! Robert always responded to the emails quickly and with clarity to the emails. Further he organised everything perfect, according to our demands and needs and his expeprience.
The guide/driver -Victor, knew many things about the ecosystem in the national Parks, about the animal habits and behaviour, and this helped not only to see the all the big 5 and to spot many animals, but to observe their behaviours -lions mating, elephants taking bath, and even to witness a lion hunt and kill (lions attacked a zebra)- wich was very interesting.
Gabriel the cook is also a marvelous cook who worked very hard in order for us to have plenty of delicious meals.
Also, the agency offered one of the best prices for the tour, so actually is the best value we found for the safari!
In conclusion, I strongly recommend this travel agency!!!

Incredible experience thanks to a very professional people!
Lot of thanks to Oltumure tours because we had an amazing experience in our safari. We did 3 days/2 nights safari in Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro. Our guide, Frank, was very professional with a lot of experience, so we could see lot of animals really close. The chef, Gabriel, was great and the food was amazing and abundant. Robert coordinated every detail with high dedication and efficacy.
Just an example. A friend of our group had fever during the second day and they had a professional behaviour: they changed accomodations and itineraries to adapt to the situation and the cook was taking care of him all the day. Finally he even visited Ngorongoro fully recovered the third day.
I highly recommend Oltumure Tours & Safaris. Complete dedication to the customers.

Our dream come true
We did a 5 day safari with Oltumure Safari in June for our honeymoon. We would book with Robert again any time! He offered a perfect service from the very start (answered all our questions before with a lot of patience) until the end of the tour. He even came back into our hotel after the safari to see whether everything went well and we were happy with the tour. We visited 3 National Parks on our trip and enjoyed every single one of them. We were only two people on the tour although we booked the standard tour (which is usually for up to 4 people). The car was in good condition. Our guide was Victor for the tour and we couldn't have had a better guide. He always knew where to look for hidden animals, he shared his vast knowledge of african wildlife and we always felt save at his side. He even managed to find a campground were we stayed on our own with all sorts of animals around. Amazing feeling! The tents were new and big enough to nearly stand and with "windows" to every side which you can choose to open or close (including a mosquito protection). We enjoyed to be on a very individual tour - we also saw companies who had several cars which followed each other. For us it was a perfect honeymoon experience, thanks Robert!

Excellent 3 days Safari organized by Mr Robert!!
Hi all, we arrived home after a great experience of 3 days Safari Tours in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara all organized perfectly by Mr Robert. He's really a perfect organizer: we had an excellent driver (careful with an excellent car and comfortable) and a wonderful cooker. They follow us for these 3 marvellous days, looking after us 3 (we also have a child of 3 years old) with a great accuracy. The trip was wonderful and the accomodation in the campsite really optimal. Robert is a really honest guy, he cares us as we were part of his family. We cannot compare him to any other person met during all our previous vacation.
Really reccomended and the price was the best we ever had!!cheap with a wonderful service.

Our driver Idi was very friendly, spoke very good english and answered us every question. We had a 4 day camping safari covering Tarangire, arusha national park, ngorongoro and lake manyara. The campsite was clean and have had a good location. Our cook was also very friendly and the food was delicious. He also paid attention to my wheat intolerance.
All in all a perfect safari with a perfect company.

Great safari experience with an honoust and reliable tour operator
Last December we had an amazing 5 days safari with our guide Titho and cook Joseph. Titho is a very reliable and calm driver. He is a very nature loving expert with quite some years of experience and has an excellent eye for wild life spotting. We actually were the first to arrive at many encounters with animals. Very special! Meanwhile cook Joseph prepared the best meals for us. His soups are delicious, and they were only the starter of the three course dinner we had every evening. Plenty of food, always fresh and homemade.
Robert is the very reliable owner of the company. He really knows how to give a personal touch during the moments of contact over email and but also during our meeting in Arusha. He is quick with his response and in arranging the right little things to make your safari the best!
