Well organized, clean, reliable.
4/5

Communication was good and all the drivers were on time. However breakfast which was promised for ride to mikumi was not provided. Accommodation and food during the safari were clean and the service was friendly. Had a nice safari in mikumi! Would reccommend this company.

Dear Petra,

Thank you for the best review. Maybe it was not clear about the breakfast, normally we offer the following in the car during the ride:
Flask of hot water/coffee/tea/crisps/nuts /unlimited drinking kilimanjaro drinking water.
This is what we mean by providing in the morning. Lunch time we have a break as well.

My apology if this was differently received from your side.
kind regards.

Owner of Tanzania Mwangaza Safaris.

Excellent organizing, professional staff, lots of different animals to be seen
4/5

We booked a day safari from Dar to Mikumi in advance. Mwajabu was very correspondive via Whatsapp and was professional, very well organized. We were picked up from DAR airport after arrival in early morning. We paid the tour in shillings (there was a working ATM at the airport) and we were driven to Mikumi in a comfortable air-conditioned car by driver Dhula. After a 7 hour ride, we arrived and were greeted by our guide Gilbert and we joined his group for safari. The animals were everywhere, especially giraffes were found all over the national park. The drive was slow so we got close to the animals. But there were no lions, we were told they are rare in Mikumi. We had a lunch at the park restaurant, the food was not very tasty but edable. After that we made another different tour around the park with the driver and then headed back to Dar. On the way we had a buffet dinner at a gas stop restaurant. I should have mentioned about my gluten- intolerance beforehand, it was difficult to find something to eat there. Luckily the waiter offered an omelette for me so didnt leave the place hungry.
Mikumi was quite far away from Dar so we should have booked a 2-day tour (which was recommended by Mwajabu but we were stubborn to book only a day-trip).
This safari would have had 5 stars if the food was right. This time it wasnt for us, but it’s partially our own fault. Going for a safari with Tanzania Mwangaza Safari is recommended anyway, this is a trip to remember! But make it longer than one day :D Asanti sana!

Timely service

We did a day safari from Dar Es Salaam. The driver was on time and drove us to Mikumi National Park and back to Dar Es Salaam. The Safari tour was great and the services and payment was easy and hassle free

Lovely staff! Reliable and professional organization !!
4/5

The Mwangza tour and agency is a really a professional reliable agency. The staff let you feel comfortable like home, they are really nice and always ready to do extra details for you. You can contact them 24 hours a day! My daughter and I were in Mikumi National Park! It was a wonderful experience that we will never forget in particular our driver Abedi! He was really kind and full of social knowledge!Beautiful Camp Bastian but the tour guide Bob at Mikumi was not really professional... Better Emiri!! Thank you Mwajabu for the wonderful experience!!

Great safari and great experience
4/5

I had a great experience in Safari with Tanzania Mwangaza, it was for 3 days and 2 nights between Mikumi park and udzungwa national park hikking and see the waterfalls, I've enjoyed every moment with them, my guide Bob was great and friendly. I had the chance to see most of the animals at the park. The stay at Camp Bastian was simply very good.
Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.

A good operator, worth the money.
4/5

We got picked up in the morning at 3:45 am at our hotel. After a 6 hour drive we arrived at Mikumi NP and did a game drive with bob where we saw elefants, lions, giraffes, hippos and many more. Oure lodge in Camp Bastian was perfect and the food was delicious. Next day we did a hike to the highest waterfalls in Tanzania. The view was amazing. Last day was again a game drive in NP and the ride to Dar es Salam.

4/5

Meajabu was very helpful and “no” was mot in her dictionary.
We visited Makumi game reserve and were lucky to see the big five. The hotel was simple but ok. All the food was included, als during the safari.
We had a good experience!

4/5

The safari in Selous was very very exciting, thanks to Abdalla our driver and the guide we could see animals so near. Some problems with Internet, electricity and water in Hippo camp, but it was nice to wake up with hippo walking just out our room! We tryed to save some money and we decided to do all the transfers by car, it is possible, it takes times, lot of hours, but somehiw it was worth to see villages along the roads.

2 day/1 night Mikumi safari
4/5

As a female solo traveler, I was happy to be in contact with Mwajabu to organize my trip. She was always accessible and very pleasant. She also offered a very good price for solo travelers, as other companies charge twice as much. Mwajabu and her brother, the driver, met me at the airport, and accomodated my every need from beginning to end. Mikumi park is impressive in its own right and Camp Bastian is beautiful. I was disappointed with the food there, especially given lunch in the park the first day was so nice, but all in all, I really enjoyed Hello Tanzania's choice for hotel. I would highly recommend Hello Tanzania to organize and guide a Tanzanian safari!
