Excellent
We did a 3 day safari with Bakari (driver) and Bato (chef) in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
Both of them were amazing.
Bakari was able to handle the vehicle in every situation even in the mud and rain. He drove right up to animals with great eye sight. We were able to see all the big 5 when other safari vehicles were not able to. Bato was great too and he insured we were well fed great warm food.
We would highly recommend them for a safari for a great adventure.

Amazing safari experience with Avocet!
We took a private 3-day safari to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire with Waldon, who was an incredible guide! He was so knowledgeable about the animals, the different environments, and the history of each location. We saw elephants, lions, buffalo, rhinos (from very far away), ostriches, hippos, a ton of birds, lots of monkeys, zebras. It was all amazing and one of the best experiences of my life! Jeff at Avocet welcomed us at his office before we set off to outline our trip for us. He was really friendly and accommodating. We felt so taken care of our entire trip. All our meals were delicious and the lodge we stayed in near Lake Manyara was clean and comfortable, and in a gorgeous little setting -- a perfect place to relax at the end of the day. They even had some African drumming, dancing, and acrobats at night. I can't recommend Avocet enough. They really take care of you throughout the entire trip and Waldon is the best guide -- funny, kind, and knows just about everything about the parks you visit.

Once in a lifetime experience
We booked a 4 day Safari Tour to tarangire Nationalpark, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. It was a once in a lifetime experience. We have seen so many animals and we are so lucky that we had Bakari as our driver and our guide. We had such a good time with him. Bakari told us a lot about the animals we have seen. We absolutely enjoyed this safari. Bakari was always there for us and made this tour so special.

Excellent 4 day Safari
We did a 4 day Safari Tour and visited the Tarangire National Park. Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our Guide Bakari did a great job. He was always in a good mood and gave us a lot of interesting information about the Park and the animals. He tried to give us the best Safari Tour as possible and did this in a great way. I am very lucky about. It is an unforgetable experience. Thank you Bakari!

Super Professional & Amazing
I communicated with Jeff from Avocet and we had Waldon as our guide for 6 days safari in 3 different parks where we saw all the animals and had an amazing time! Didnt pay anything extra from the initial price and we had everything included!

Better than what we imagined
We are three friends and we spent five days with Bakary, our guide, and Kevin, the cook, in three national parks in Tanzania.
It was quite a lot of money, but we were definitely not disappointed.
We honestly couldn’t have dreamed of anything better. Bakary was really nice, fun, and attentive, and he made sure all our wishes came true.
Even though camping in tents was not always as comfortable as we would have liked, we truly lived a dream in the Serengeti and got to see incredible wildlife up close.
Memories for a lifetime.
Highly recommended!

An amazing safari with lifetime memories
A group of us, three families, were going to safari in Tanzania and Zanjibar. Our trip was 5 days of safari and two days in all inclusive resort in zanzibar. Our "custom package" included everything (transportation, guide, food, hotels, and whatever else it may be). We had customized every aspect of our trip. Going from the US, we didn't know where to start. I sent emails to a few, about 10, highly rated companies on Tripadvisor and other websites. Only three companies responded. I sent follow up emails as I had more questions. Only Hadija at Avocet came back with desirable and detailed answers. I went back and forth multiple times to iron out minute details on hotels, type of safari jeeps, camps class and location, food inclusion and choices, guide info, and routes to name a few. Hadija always responded with promptly with detailed explanation. I really admired timely communication and descriptive communication.
Part of our deal, we were allocated three safari jeeps for three families. Our three drivers/guides, Michael, Waldon, and Ibrahim Bakari, were simply amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. They were quite friendly and conversational. None of them smoked which was an added benefit. All three families felt quite comfortable and at ease with our guides. We waited till last day of our trip to tip them. We were so happy, we tipped twice the recommended amount.
We did have a hiccup with Avocet. One of our flights were canceled due to airline change of schedule and "no refund" was given. Avocet wanted to charge us for the new flights. After back and forth, they agree to "cover" cost of new flights.
Overall it was an amazing trip. We were apprehensive before going to Tanzania. But, Hadija's hand holding made our journey very comfortable and easy. We would definitely utilize Avocet if we go back to Tanzania.

Amazing experience
It was a truly beautiful experience, difficult to put into words. The safari through the Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater was intense, emotional, and deeply authentic. Endless landscapes, unspoiled nature, and close encounters with wildlife that stay with you forever.
The stay in a tented camp made everything even more special: falling asleep to the sounds of the savannah, waking up surrounded by nature, and experiencing the safari in a raw yet comfortable setting added a unique sense of immersion and connection with the environment.
A huge added value was our guide Humphrey: professional, extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and always available. Thanks to him, every day was perfectly organized, with clear explanations, great field experience, and a contagious passion for the land and its animals.
A journey I would recommend without hesitation to anyone looking not just for a safari, but for a genuine, profound, and unforgettable experience.
