The review below is the personal opinion of Austin and not that of SafariBookings.
Tour company was ok with changes and not descriptive itinerary but their driver Israel was amazing
3/5

Tour company is ok. We had a Lodging cancellation for Ndutu during the migration season and had to recommend staying closer to Ngorongoro created to even have the opportunity to see it on our last day (it was in the itinerary for the last day but because of permit times we would not have been able to see it otherwise). So we had to sacrifice time in Ndutu or crater when both were in itinerary for day 6 and 7. With that being said our driver Israel was amazing and loves and respects the animals in their habitat. Even when others were breaking the rules in Serengeti he maintained the respect of the land and animals. It is nature so there are no guarantees but we saw so much, the big 5 and cheetahs. I give 3 stars because our driver and that side was perfect but company can use improvement in itinerary, permit knowledge to clients (because sometimes we had to leave first thing in morning to be out of parks in time), and responding to clients on changes when they said they would even if they are already on safari.

Migration Venture is an exceptional tour operator that delivers an unforgettable experience
5/5

We had an absolutely incredible safari experience, and so much of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Joseph. He was knowledgeable, polite, and extremely friendly from start to finish. We were fortunate to see so many animals up close, including the Big 5 and much more. This was often due to his experience, insight into the park landscape, and knowledge of the best spots for sightings.
Beyond the wildlife, he generously shared fascinating insights into the local culture and language and also brought us to a local souvenir shop where we were able to get the best deals. The itinerary was flexible, including customising our trip to include a stop in Ndutu. The trip was well paced, and Joseph ensured there were ample rest stops and toilet breaks along the way.
One of the highlights was the sunrise hot air balloon experience, complete with champagne and a bush breakfast, which was organised as part of our package. Airport pick-ups and transfers were included, water and all meals were provided each day, helping to make the trip stress-free from arrival to departure.
We would highly recommend Joseph & Migration Venture to anyone looking for a truly exceptional safari experience.

Value for money
4/5

Amos and his team are a flexible and correct. Their strong point is that they have an own hotel in Moshi “The Better in”. From there, they coordinate all their expeditions or guides tours. The price they ask is one of the lowest I could find and for the service you get, I don’t think you can find better. You get everything you need based on your condition and the group. They adapt easily to their clients. Knowledge of English is sufficient and I had personally a great time doing the Lemosho 6 days route.

The safari of a lifetime
5/5

Our safari experience was truly exceptional thanks to our guide Israel. From the very first day, it was clear that he is not only an outstanding professional but also an incredibly kind and genuine person.

The safari itself was incredibly complete. We had the opportunity to see an incredible variety of animals in their natural habitat. Israel explained everything with great clarity and answered all our questions, his knowledge of wildlife is simply extraordinary. You could feel how deeply he loves nature and how much respect he has for the animals and the environment.

What makes Israel even more remarkable is that, despite dealing with personal difficulties during our time together, he never let it affect his work in the slightest. On the contrary, he remained attentive, positive, patient, and fully committed to making our safari unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide, and we will always remember this experience thanks to Israel.

Woke up excited every morning – that’s the sign of a perfect trip.
5/5

From the flexible pickup in Arusha to the incredible driver who was both skilled and lovely to talk to — everything was perfect. Great value, stunning lodges, delicious food, and no issues with transport.
The only tip: book early so you get a lodge close to the park — otherwise you’ll spend extra time driving before the game starts (or after).
We saw tons of animals, the views were unreal, and we were genuinely sad when it ended. Highly recommend!

Wow what an experience!
5/5

We went with this safari company as we wanted a locally based operator to support the Tanzanian community and economy.
Our guide Peter, met us at the airport. Everything was well organised with lovely accommodation, the safari camp in the Serengeti was particularly stunning.
Peter never clocked watched and ensured we had the maximum time in the various parks. I was overwhelmed with just how much wildlife we saw, truly incredible. Peter was patient and thoughtful, his English was adequate, he could explain about the animals and environment.
There is a lot of driving so the jeep became our second home. Each hotel provided pack lunches the next day which were fine. Every meal we had was good, no dodgy stomachs and every toilet was very clean!
The whole safari experience is geared up for tourists. I would not like to go in high season when there can be 2000 plus jeeps in the parks. This is overwhelming for the animals.
The Masai visit was ok but they are geared up to charge exorbitant prices for mass produced tourist tat - be warned !
We had a far more rewarding and remarkable experience with the Hadzabe tribe - incredible to go on a hunt with a group of young men.
I would recommend to is smaller safari provider if you want a high quality experience with a great itinerary where you will see so many animals and stunning vistas.

Guide (Alex) & Safaris were excellent, our vehicle was not so great, but did the job.
4/5

Our guide, Alex, was punctual, well mannered and good company over the 6 days we spent together.
Alex always did his best to ensure we saw as much wildlife as possible, he was also very alert to an angry bull elephant that charged as he reversed our vehicle to safe point very quickly.
Accommodation, food and drinks were all very good...but be prepared for bars closing early.

Excellent experience with great guide
5/5

Tour 5/5

We went on 5 day private safari inc. Tarangerie, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. This was an experience of a lifetime! We were lucky to see the Big5 and plenty of other animals. Our guide Alex made excellent job making sure that we had all the best spots to see the animals; lions, elephants and giraffes were right next to our car (Land Cruiser).

Also all of the accommodations were nice, staff friendly and food good.
However, you can expect bit longer drives/commuting if you’re staying outside of the parks. If shorter commuting is important to you, make sure to check the locations of the accommodations from the internet. I’m sure the company can help you to find suitable options between locations and prices.

Communications 4/5
-Easiest way to communicate with the company is via email or WhatsApp
-Amos was quick to respond
-You can expect that passport information is required after confirming the booking
-Bit more detailed daily schedule could have been helpful (though you can present preference also during the tour after arrival)

Service 5/5
-Your guide will be waiting for you when you arrive to the airport and after that you and your luggage is taken care of. You can expect stress free service
-Alex was considerate and polite and we felt safe when he was driving. He knows very much about the animals and can tell you interesting facts about the local nature and culture

Reliability 5/5
-No issues, felt safe booking with this company and everything went smoothly
-Car was bit old but worked without problems

Thank you Migration Venture Africa and special thanks to our guide Alex “the super vision” for spotting all the animals and making our trip memorable!
