An Unbelievable Experience!
Julia from Altezza planned an amazing safari for me and my dad this summer. It was a wonderful vacation! Our guide, Tom, was extremely friendly, intelligent, multi-lingual, and professional. We were able to see the big five and everything was planned/executed perfectly. If you want to experience an amazing African safari, Altezza Travel is the way to go! My experience with this company was extremely impressive.

8 days safari tour with Altezza
Altezza was exceptionally professional and customer focused from start to finish.
Our guide and driver Vincent was taking very good care of us, showing us the best spots, communicating with rangers and other guides to make every safari successful. We had a lot to see and do in our 8 days tour and now in retrospect we are glad for every minute.
I can certainly recommend Altezza as safari tour operator. I would definitely book with them again if I get the opportunity to go back to Tanzania.
Thank you so much, Altezza.

Wonderful adventure
From reading other reviews, it appears that a lot of your experience depends on what driver you get. We apparently won the lottery, as our driver Franky was wonderful. He had a knack for finding animals and we saw all of the big 5 - most of them multiple times, plus endless hippos, giraffes, zebras, etc.
The car was also amazing. It was brand-new (2014) green coloured Land Cruiser with refrigerator, comfortable seats and sockets for charging of devices. Our car was kept clean and cold drinking water was available for us constantly.
Our accommodation was clean, comfortable and always interesting! And what's important – all lodges were in African style.
Tanzania is a country where everyone we met was warm, happy and welcoming. It always felt safe wherever we were. This country is an oasis, and I would love to go back again.
At the end of our 5 day safari we were really sad to part ways with our driver Franky. I recommend him and Altezza Travel to anyone travelling to Tanzania.

Thank you for the best holiday ever
We’ve just arrived home and thought we’d send a quick review to thank Altezza and to tell you that we had the time of our lives. We have travelled extensively all over the world in the last 10 years, so we knew for sure which level of organization we expect.
First we've been surprised with quick and complete replies on my emails. Telling truth this is not easy to work with us, as I changed my mind many times regarding our choices of lodges and locations while planning. Eventually, this holiday became the best ever! We were incredibly lucky and saw the Big Five and so many other things (e.g. lions, hyena & cubs, wild dogs, leopards, giraffes, zebras, jackals, impalas, hippos, elephants, buffaloes, heaps of beautiful birds etc). Also it was a perfect 40th birthday. Tanzania is awesome – those sunsets are quite unbelievable, thank you so much. Thanks to all your team, we’ll be returning soon.

Wonderful trip!!
Travelling with Altezza was absolutely amazing experience!! The entire process was seamless and perfect from sales to payment to our wonderful guide Ben! He has eagle eyes and made our safari very special!! Every game drive we went on was an amazing experience. We spotted so many animals and was all down to our very talented driver. He wouldn't stop until he had found what we were after!
We have been on safari few times before in Kenya and South Africa and I would have to say that this trip was better than all previous trips combined, thanks to Altezza.
Don't be nervous about using Altezza Travel, they made our trip wonderful! Nothing went wrong and nothing out of place! Thank you, guys!

Never thought that safari can be so fun!
It was my first trip to Africa.
Telling truth I had neither safari, nor mountain climbing experience before in my life, so it was quite scarry for me and my son.
Now I am back home after almost 2 fantastic weeks spent in Tanzania. And looking back I can confirm that this journey was absolutely awesome. I enjoyed everything: well organized program, prices, food, lodges, kind and lovely managers that helped me with trip planning. My 15-years old son even wished to merry with manager Valery in the future :))
Our guide did his best to give us full and wide picture of wild Africa and now I can state that trevelling with Altezza company was amazing experience for me and my son.
Hopefully to see you soon again, guys!

Probably the best service you can find in Tanzania
My wife and I want to thank Altezza Travel for our amazing safari experience in Tanzania. We traveled to Tanzania in late February to early March.
Upon arriving at JRO (Kilimanjoro International Airport) near Arusha an Altezza Travel driver Ben was there to take us to the hotel.
Next morning during safari in Tarangire National Park we understood that Ben has an encyclopedic knowledge of the birds, animals, and plant life of Tanzania. He speaks excellent English, is warm, with a pleasant personality and a good sense of humor. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. This company arranged excellent accommodations at upscale lodges and luxury tented camps. We especially loved the 2 tent camps we stayed at, sleeping to the sounds of zebras and wildebeest right outside our tent. During our 7-day tour we visited the Serengeti from south to north, the Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. We met all representatives of the African Big Five Following Ben's lead, we saw cheetahs and lionesses hunting, a leopard in a tree with a kill, the Great Migration and many other things we will always remember.
If we ever get the opportunity to return to Tanzania (I really hope so) we will definitely hire Altezza Travel and specifically request Ben as our guide.

Excellent unforgettable experience with Altezza Travel
Safari with Altezza Travel Company became an excellent unforgettable experience for me. I was traveling with my girlfriend and few of our friends in Tanzania in April this year. This was an unforgettable trip, the staff at Altezza Travel were very professional and friendly, they were very quick answering all my questions and they always provided all the requested information on the stage of tour booking. The lodges they recommended were great and the price for the whole package was very good.
Our guide, Frenky, was wonderful! Fluent in English, history, geology, geography and in terms of local culture and gave us a lot of knowledge.
No doubt the guide upgraded the whole trip, and we really recommend Frenky to be your guide!
The service was wonderful from all the stuff once the order several months ago untill we returned back at the end of the tour to the airport.
Thanks a lot to Altezza for the journey I will never forget.

Excellent service and very polite team
My safari with Altezza was the best trip I've ever taken in my life, and I've traveled a lot. Dima and his team helped us every step of the way. We changed our itinerary multiple times and the team made that very easy for us to do, allowing us to customize the trip to our liking.
Our safaris were amazing. We saw everything we wanted to see and the guide allowed us to stay and watch certain groups of animals for however short or long of a time period we wanted. They made the long journey fun and taught us about the land, animals and language.
Our accommodations far exceeded my expectations. We stayed in lodges that made us feel like we were part of the culture, rather than busy hotels.
I always felt safe and taken care of there.
I would not hesitate to take another trip with Altezza. See you in future!

Quick responses, excellent service and experienced guide
From the first moment we contacted Altezza we were happy with the quick and personal responses from one of their manager Lex. He answered all our questions, and suggested a program that suited our wishes very well. Lex was very flexible in adjusting the programm when we asked for that. We planned a 7 days trip to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara and Norton. Benedict, our driver and guide, was very experienced in the wild life. He has excellent knowledge of the animals, their names and background information, and about Tanzania as a whole. We saw so many animals without rushing from one place to the other. Most of the time we stayed in good lodges. For us a wonderful way to experience Tanzania was a closer to nature and chip facilities to be near with wild life of Tanzania. The 4 wheel drive was very comfortable and spacious. Benedict and Altezza team gave us an experience that was better than we expected!
