"An incredible experience!"
5/5



It was absolutely a remarkable safari experience that my family and I had with Open Africa Safaris. The company provide such a wonderful service to all of us. The company is well organized and therefore, the driver was so helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The vehicle was extremely comfortable and we had all that we needed. The trip was unforgettable and there is no doubt that it will remain in our memory for life . Yes indeed, I would highly recommend Open Africa Safaris to any one who would like to make their dream come true.

Best adventure of my life!
5/5

Best tour guides ever! John and Antony knew so much about the land, the animals, the people, everything. I felt safe, (even when an elephant charged us!) and secure, and it was so wonderful being with two amazing people who took such great care of us and really went the extra mile to make sure we had the best time. The food was fantastic, too! Don't leave your lunch out anywhere, the monkeys are little thieves. :D I can't wait to someday take my husband back to Tanzania to take them on one of their safaris, they are just magical!

Informative. Personal. Unforgettable.
5/5

From the moment Antoine, our safari guide, drove up to our hotel in Arusha to the moment he dropped us off again, we were engrossed in the safari experience. He and his protege were so well informed about the geography, the flora and fauna, and the history of the places we passed or stayed.

We drove with them to the Ngorongoro Crater and did a one day safari. We saw a lion hunt with commentary from our guides as to the reasons for certain methods the lions employed. We saw countless zebras, wildebeasts, and flamingos. We encountered elephants taking dirt baths; ostriches grazing on the plains; hyenas sharing prey at lunch time. We even saw a white rhino, apparently a very rare occurrence, cross the road in front of our vehicle. Cheetahs, kori bustards, hippos. Name it, we saw it. And we were informed all along the way about each of these animals and their relationship to the geography and to the other species in the area.

On top of seeing and learning about all of these amazing creatures that we would only otherwise have seen in a zoo, our experience with our guides was very special and something I will never forget. Antoine is a warm, friendly man who will put you at ease in a place so foreign to most, my travel partner and myself included. His English is excellent, and he has a firm understanding of what makes Tanzania a magical place to visit or to live. It's obvious he loves his job and was born to do it. I will always consider him my kaka, my brother.

I would strongly urge anyone with the chance to take a safari with him or with anyone at Open Africa Safaris. It is a highly impactful life experience.

fantastic family safari
5/5

I recently took my family on a safari to the national parks with John and Anton. They were both great with my kids. They were very knowledgeable about the animals and the land we visited. We met local Masai and learned about their lives and community. I would highly recommend taking your safari with Open Africa Safaris if you want to make sure you will have a safe, relaxing, and enjoyable trip.

It was unforgettable experience with Open Africa Safaris!
5/5

My abiding memory of the Maasai Cultural Trip to Monduli is the warmth with which we were received by the communtiy, and the genuine insight we got about the Maasai way of life through sharing in some of their daily activities and celebrations.

The success of the trip was also due to the close realtionship that Anthony and John, have with the Maasai community.

They grew up in a community nearby and understand the language and culture. They ware therfore able to help ensure that we all had a truly enriching experience.

Not to be missed.

5/5

My family and I Went on a safari tour with Open Africa Safaris January 2015 and we enjoyed it 100%! The communication and service was excellent! We were able to see the animals at a close distance and the tour guide, Tonny Montana was patient and made sure that we were able to get good pictures and videos. We were also provided lunches, which were fulfilling. We plan on going on another safari tour to Serengeti in December 2015 with Open Africa Safaris and I request Tonny Montana as our guide.I will definitely recommend Open Africa Safaris to my friends and anyone looking for an excellent safari tour! This was one of the best experiences of my life!! Thanks alot!!

Amazing tour with the best tour guide. Africa at its best!
5/5

Open Africa Safaris handled every aspect of of my Safari with ease and fun.

Anthony (Tonny) was the best tour guide I have ever met. Anthony is personable and funny while sharing knowledge about the parks, mountains, and every animal that you see along the way.

I toured Arusha, Lake Manyara NP, and Ngorongoro crater. The hotels the tour company reserved in Ngorongoro crater are amazing and have the most incredible views that I have every see. Anthony was very informative and we had an amazing time during every part of the journey. Anthony has become a lifelong friend and I can't wait to return to Africa and tour again.
