If I had one operator to choose it would be Paul.
5/5

Paul was my driver who took me to Tandala Tent Camp near Ruaha National Park. I found Paul extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the region we were driving through. He knew about the people, their way of life, and if something came up that he thought was interesting or you thought was interesting he would stop to make sure you understood whatever it was that you wanted to see. Twice on our trip he stopped to show us interesting wildlife along the way. And his knowledge of birds astounded me. Be it sound or live bird he knew what it was. His love of helping to protect the wildlife of Africa is to be commended. When I decide to go back I will contact Paul to help me with my safari. He told me before I left to go home that he would make sure things would be arranged with whatever I needed. I would recommend Paul services to anyone that wanted to have a fabulous time on safari in Africa. As a matter of fact, I have told some of my friends that if they ever decide to go on safari that I have someone they should contact. That person would be Paul Tickner.

Custom experience, personalized service
5/5

Paul was great to work with. He put together an excellent custom package for us based loosely on what we saw on the Safari Bookings website. He was very conscious of our budget and came in with an excellent package that met our price point. He was super flexible when we wanted to change. Best of all, his communication was great. He answered all our questions promptly as we were preparing for the trip.

On the ground in Africa, service was awesome. Paul is a very knowledgeable guide, but even better he is a great communicator and made sure to focus our game drives on the things we wanted to do. Paul is very personable, and it was easy to have a great time on safari with him.


Highly recommended. Southern Tanzania was great - we saw all the game at half the price and none of the people.

Best travel organisor ever
5/5

We never went on a safari with Paul, but he helped us setup up an amazing trip to Mafia Island including flights and transfer. He's polite, knowledgeable and professional. I can really recommend him.

Efficient, knowledgeable and spot on recommendations.
5/5

We were looking for a secretive and relaxing getaway on Tanzania's Mafia island. Paul Tickner Safaris' first recommendation was Ras Mbizi lodge and it was absolutely spot on. Deserted beach, wonderful staff, great food, interesting activities, all for a very reasonable price. PTS booked flights and nights efficiently and professionally, keeping us informed every step of the way. Highly recommended!

My Iringa Experience
5/5

I had the opportunity to experience this amazing safari experience in March 2014. Paul was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable in his field and enthusing passion in wildlife conservation. An accomplished photographer himself, Paul's expert tips on wildlife photography add a special bonus to his tours.

Undzungwa and Ruaha
5/5

Paul arranged a bespoke Safari in a short space of time at very competitive rates. But that was just the start of a very tailoured adventure with someone who not only enjoys Africa but is knowledgeable too, so able inform at the right level. Tanzania is not as developed as other countries which is part of its charm, so be prepared to get close to nature, the people and understand that life is simply wonderful. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary, call Paul.
