amazing
I went to Tanzania for 2 weeks with my girlfriend. I booked all with Hello Tanzania and was really amazing. We went to Selous to make a safari, where we could see all the animals unless the chita and Rhino. After that we went to Zanzibar, where Hello Tanzania booke for us the boat tickets and all the things that we needed while we were there. GosListen was our chofer durenig 5 days. Is a very kind guy, who show us all the autentic thing form Tanzania, also we spent with him a great times drinking or taking a dinner. I recommend a lot this company.

Efficient, Comprehensive, Honest. Excellent follow through
Mawajabu was a superb tour agent. She was completely on-top of details and our personal requests. She was amazingly responsive with timely answers to our questions in planning the trip. She followed through on every email between us (nearly 70 over a few days) in planning the details of the trip and showed a great amount of flexibility in adapting to our evolving requests as we understood the varying details of safari. I would strongly recommend anyone to work with her.
Our 4 night/5 day safari and 1 night/2 day stay in Zanzibar was arranged by Mawajabu. She found a way to get us to all four parks in the north that we wanted to visit. We were met in Arusha as she planned by a guide and on each transition (airports, hotels) were met immediately by someone with whom she works. It was flawless. She even made sure we had a hotel room nearby the Dar airport for several hours on our layover between Zanzibar-Dar and the trip back to the USA. We did not need to call her at all during the trip to deal with any problems.
A few suggestions for travelers:
-Know where you want to go. This should be determined by your price range (Mawajabu did a really good job of staying within our target price) and the time of year.
-There is a big difference in price between many of the lodges (all were above-average) and the tented camp (an absolute luxury you must experience if possible. We stayed one night at Mapito which was like heaven on earth in every respect). Do your own due diligence on these places so you tailor the place to your desires and remember that the time of year you travel impacts to some extent what you are likely to see on safari because of migration patterns and weather.
-Ask about your guide. We had a wonderful guide (Gifte) who took very good care of us and was absolutely reliable. The ability to speak your language well will impact how much talk you receive about things.
Based on this one experience I would definitely recommend Hello Tanzania and Mawajabu when planning your visit to Tanzania. Be sure to combine their expertise with your own research so that they can help tailor the adventure to meet your desires as there are many ways to arrange this trip.

awesome safari at Mikumi NP with Hello Tanzania
We had a great safari with our driver/guide Beni, who made our trip unforgettable. Mwajabu, the tour operator, helped us a lot with preparing the trip and she answered all our questions. Unfortunately the drinks during dinner at the lodge were not included, what we didn't know before.
All in all the safari trip was really great and we would recommend Hello Tanzania to everyone.
Professional, prompt and trustworthy.
Booked direct as i was recommended by a friend. A 5 day, 4 night, transfer from Zanzibar safari.
Being a solo female traveller I felt very safe from start to finish. All my questions and concerns for answered promptly and everything was made clear before and during my trip.
As i went during low season, i wasn’t just dealing with one guide, which wasn’t a problem for me as every guide was professional and reassured me, however maybe if you were travelling with children you’d prefer just one as this wasn’t made clear before the trip.
From the taxi picking me up from my hotel in zanzibar, being greeted in Arusha, everything was smooth.
The guides themselves were very professional and the chef was amazing! He made everything vegan for me so i didn’t miss out. Big thanks to James, Barak, Dennis and Ibrahim!
The only minor hiccup i had was with my flight back, but they were on hand to help and sorted the problem within 10 minutes. Always checking in via whatsapp making sure i was okay!
Also, remember it’s a lot more laid back here, and sometimes you have to go with the flow and embrace ‘hakuna matata’. My itinerary didn’t go in the exact order but i did do everything that was promised, things change last minute, weather, guides, plans etc but it was all under control. Just relax!
Thank you for an amazing time and forever memories!

Day safari trip - couldn't have hoped for more
We were a family group of 6 and I had booked a day safari before we left. The information provided me beforehand was so helpful and booking easy.
Communication in preparation for the day was perfect and on the day everything was so smooth and easy. Each switch over the person was waiting for us and we didn't need to worry. The small plane in itself was an amazing experience.
Makumi national park is totally brilliant. We saw all the animals and Robinson our guide had so much interesting information about the animals, the birds and the plants.
Overall, I can't recommend this company enough. They made everything easy and we had a day we will never forget

It was great
It's something everyone should do in their life. The team is very good. Company owner Mwajabu was very interested in us. We went to his office ourselves. We saw the place and agreed. We went to Mikumi national park. Lucky for us, we saw almost all the animals. Lion, zebra, giraffe, hippo, elephant etc. My wife and I went. Both the guides and the driver, the whole team were very good. I recommend

Owner of the tour company, Mwajabu, is a very special person who made my trip Tanzania memorable.
Tanzania Mwaganza Safari, operated by the ever so wonderful Mwajabu, arranged all of my tours in Tanzania. She was very easy to deal with. She and I were in communication months ahead my travel date. Her personality is so positive that I managed to strike a genuine friendship with her. My excursions included Gombe Island, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and city tour of Dar es Salaam. There were a few hickups here and there but it was not the tour company's fault. Regardless of whose fault it was, Mwajabu was always ready to assist. She is a person with a good heart ❤️. If you want to deal with a tour company that will care for your well being and strive to give you the best experience, please book with Tanzania Mwangaza Safari.
