Humphrey made the safari incredible !!
5/5

We absolutely got our moneys worth with Avocet safaris. Out tour guide Humphrey was the absolute BEST tour guide you could ask for. He was so knowledgable about animals/directions and so welcoming. The company really looked after us. The range of animals we saw was incredible and the whole 5 days was amazing not just one day. I would highly recommend !!

It’s all about a good guide!!
5/5

We had an absolutely amazing five-day safari, and a huge part of what made the experience so special was our guide, Humphrey.

Humphrey was an outstanding guide from start to finish. He knows an incredible amount about the animals, their behavior, and the entire ecosystem. Thanks to his experience and incredible eye for spotting wildlife, we were able to see so many amazing animals – including all of the Big Five!

Our safari took us through some of Tanzania’s most incredible places. On the first day, we explored Tarangire National Park, followed by two unforgettable days in the Serengeti National Park. We spent the night at Simba Camp, which was an adventure in itself. Having wild animals around the camp during the night made the experience even more exciting and unforgettable.

On the fourth day, we visited the Ngorongoro Crater, where we were once again amazed by the incredible wildlife and scenery. On our final day, we explored Lake Manyara National Park, which was the perfect ending to an already incredible safari.

What really stood out throughout the entire trip was Humphrey. He was not only extremely knowledgeable and experienced, but also friendly, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He always knew where to look and was incredibly good at spotting animals that we would have completely missed ourselves. He also explained everything in such an interesting and understandable way, which made us appreciate every sighting even more.

The five days were an unforgettable experience, and we couldn’t have wished for a better guide. If you are planning a safari in Tanzania, we can highly recommend Humphrey. He truly made our safari something very special!

5/5

My name is Paula , and I'm from Chile 🇨🇱.
I traveled to Tanzania on my own, and the best days of my trip were the safaris guided by Fidelis. The group we formed, with him and the rest of us travelers, was so much fun. We became very close, everyone was friendly, and we laughed a lot together.
We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, and I recommend this company to everyone who asks me about my trip. Fidelis was an amazing guide: fun, motivating, and always willing to teach us. It gave us so much confidence to see how well he knew the parks, the routes, and everything needed to make our experience comfortable and enjoyable.
What we experienced was a lifelong dream of mine, and I'm so grateful to the team for making it come true and exceeding all my expectations.
If you can, ask for Fidelis as your guide! You won't regret it. 😊

5/5

We had an amazing experience with our tour guide and our new friends. We managed to see all the big 5 with our guide's experience. The lodge and the camping were also organized. We totally recommend you to do it.

Spectacular experience! Special thanks to our driver Amani Mahanga!
5/5

I made the 4 days safari, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, it was incredible! Absolutely worthy to stay in lodges, way more comfortable than the public camping that have no electricity and poor showers/toilets facilities. Amani our driver was amazing. So skillful and efficient, get as to see all the animals we expected to see, we were also very lucky to find them all. And some from very close! He always respectful of the rules, and always with a smile.
I payed u$s1350 and I think it was great value for that money.
The only thing I can call is that the car was a bit old, very noicy and not so clean. A better more newer car would have made the experience even better.

(I will not recommend this for small kids. It can be tiring so many hours a day of driving)

Our safari guide Humphrey was incredibly knowledgeable and my family had an unforgettable experience
5/5

We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater national parks, and they were all superb. We had a very positive experience, helped enormously by Humphrey who knew a lot of detail about every animal and who went the extra mile to make sure we saw all the animals we were most interested to see, even a leopard! He was very lighthearted and seemed truly passionate about all he showed us and spoke about and I recommend him highly!! My mum, brother and I had an amazing trip, and for being on the lower end of what safaris can cost, we thought it was great value for money.

Incredible experience - well organised and incredible safari guide Fidelis!
5/5

Our 4-day, 3-night safari with Avocet Tanzania Safaris was genuinely one of the highlights of our entire trip to Tanzania. We visited Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and the whole experience exceeded our expectations from beginning to end.

Our guide, Fidelis, was absolutely superb. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, funny and genuinely passionate about what he does. His knowledge of the wildlife and the parks was outstanding, and he always seemed to know exactly where to go. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him, whether we wanted to stop for photographs, spend longer watching an animal or ask yet another question! He made the whole safari feel relaxed, personal and incredibly enjoyable.

We were extremely lucky with the wildlife and saw all of the Big Five, several of them on multiple occasions. Some of the encounters were absolutely unforgettable, and Fidelis played a huge part in making sure we had the best possible experience.

There were six guests in our vehicle — ourselves and two other couples — and it worked perfectly. There was plenty of room, everyone had a great view, and we all got along brilliantly.

The accommodation throughout was excellent, but the Luxury Sightseeing Tented Lodges were a particular highlight. Staying out in such beautiful surroundings after a full day on safari was an experience in itself. The food was also fantastic throughout the trip — fresh, delicious and very well prepared, which was especially impressive considering some of the locations.

For the quality of the safari, accommodation, food, guiding and overall experience, we thought it represented fantastic value for money.

If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, we couldn’t recommend Avocet Tanzania Safaris highly enough — and if you have the opportunity to have Fidelis as your guide, you’re in exceptionally good hands. An unforgettable four days and an experience we’ll be talking about for years to come!
