Very helpfull and reliable team
We had three perfect safari days. First with Peter in Manyara, he told us a lot about all the birds. And the other two days with Mike in the crater and Tarangyre. He made all the efforts to show us so many different animals. And when the safari was over he made even more efforts to drop all the guests at there different, almost unfindable adresses. Staying optimistic and friendly all the time. It was a super first safari experience with Avocet for me and my daughter!

Very experienced, nice and friendly guide who could answer all our questions, good organisation
We had a great 5 days safari (Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro). It was an uniquely awesome experience. Our guide Waldon was just amazing. He knew everything and everyone, told us a lot of interesting stuff not only about wildlife and nature but also about life, people, culture and habits in Tanzania. He could answer all of our questions and always had an open ear and a smile for everyone. He even helped us out with buying fresh fruits for the tour on the local markets so that we didn’t have to pay the „Mzungu-price“.
We deliberately booked the Budget tour where we could sleep in a tent in the parcs as we wanted to „feel“ nature as direct as possible. It is an interesting experience to hear and see wild animals while you are around or in your tent. For the camping everything was very well organised. There was always someone who gave us a hand so that we didn’t have to think much about anything else except enjoying. Our cook Richard took good care of your well being so everything was a pleasure.
We can absolutely recommend this agency and wish you a great experience.

Amazing Safari in Tanzania
We had booked a three day Safari with Avocet including Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro crater and Lake Manyara. Our driver Mike was a perfekt guide and made a lot of effort to make us see all the animals! It was amazing , we saw all big five of Tansania and many more animals! Also the camp was nice, with good food and the tents have been clean and comfortable.
Jeff oranised all our transports, so we had a amazing time.
I highly recommend this company and especially Mike as a guide!

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.

Everything was very well organized, we would highly recommend!
We enjoyed the trip with Avocet so much. We went during March (low season) but it’s the time for the animals for having the babies and also there were not so many people, was the best decision for us to go this time.
We payed about $800 pp tips included for a camping Safari and it was really worth the price (I actually think it‘s one of the cheapest but it was so great!).
We had a friendly guide who was well informed about the parks and areas we visited and also about every animal we saw. He could answer almost every question and was fun and professional too. Also sitting in the car felt very safe during driving bumpy roads.
Our cook was also a blessing for us. We always had warm and fresh food and enjoyed the breaks as we enjoyed the time in the park!
Also they always asked us when we want to go and were reliable all the time.
On one day it rained and they organized a lodge instead of a tent for us which was also quite surprising but really kind.
So all in all we had a wonderful experience in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and really would recommend the company as we had no problems during the safari.
Just be informed that the car will shared with some people as well. But for us it was really nice to get to know new people even if you always need to decide as a group.
Perfect
This organisation and the guide Mike where amazing! They made our second safari experience more than perfect! Mike was the best guide and showed us al the good places in Serengeti! He saw all the cats and helped us. He was funny and made our experience more than perfect! Asana Asante Rafiki!

Extraordinary once in a lifetime experience
Our safari with Waldon was extraordinary. He was friendly, funny, knowledgeable, caring, patient and motivated to give us a great time from minute one until the end. Serengeti took our breath - the endlessness of the park, the vast amount and diversity of animals… We didn‘t expect to see every animal so our joy about ending up seeing a leopard in the tree with his prey, a cheetah family, and lions mating in front of us (I‘m not kidding) was even bigger! We would recommend a safari with Avocet to anyone - we cannot think of a better value for money. Keep your expectations low and you will have a once in a lifetime experience.

The legend, the master, the Don!
We’ve had an awesome 4 day safari through Tarengeri, Serengeti & Ngorongoro.
Our driver and guide, Don Wally, was the best! Genuine guy who is always smiling, great attitude and fun and patient throughout the day (and night).
It seems like he knows every national park like the back of his hand, and every road by heart. Besides that he knows where to find every animal, sometimes with a little help from his many friends on the radio. He also has lots of info about each and every animal, and the nature that they live in.
Our chef, DJ Chef, was an excellent cook, providing us each day with a different breakfast, lunch and diner with a touch of local magic. A really nice guy, and always willing to help with whatever you need help with.
Accommodations (camping tents) were fine, car was good and the service was very personal and excellent.
All in all a definite recommend to everybody who wants a fun adventure!
Thank Don & DJ Chef!
