It was incredible safari tour!
My trip to Tanzania was unforgettable. I believe that everyone needs to see with their own eyes the life of Africa, unlike anything else. Here everything is special: huge reserves with unusual trees and unique animals, the life of Tanzanians. It is interesting to look at animals in their natural habitat. They absolutely do not pay attention to the observers and are engaged in their own affairs: they eat, sleep, hunt, have sex and raise their offspring - all this was seen and photographed on camera :) There are a lot of animals. Thanks to you, I have terrific memories of Tanzania! I want to return to you on safari, but for a long time, for two weeks :)

Nice experience
Safari was great, accomodation was very good, food tasty, our driver Patrick was the best. We really enjoyed. I can recommend.
Just before you go discuss carefully what is included in the price. We should have boat trip included but we have to pay extra. Usually agency gives the money to driver so he should pay for you.

Four excellent days on safari tour
We spent four great days on safari tour in Tanzania. First we booked accommodation in campsite, but in the last moment we decieded to pay more for the lodges. And that was the great match. We really enjoyed all of our time we spent in Tanzania. We exerienced real wilderness of Africa. Our driver Isaac always wa s so calm and friendly and he had so much patience for all our questions. Best recommendations for him. We also booked late afternoon flight on our departure day and the company and Isaac gave their best that we could get on time. All the best recommendations for the company, director Seth and especially for our driver Isaac. Thank you for everything.

Amazing Safari with Sami, great food, saw every animal, except leopards, but saw cheetahs and rhinos
The safari didnt match the itinerary that was emailed, in fact it was in reverse, but overall blew away my expectations and I am so happy with the price, the food, and the whole experience in general. Fantastic. Our group had Sami as a driver, he drove like a crazy off road racer and got us too all the animals as well as being funny and patient and keeping us informed on the daily schedules.

Enjoying Safari in Tanzania
We had a great Safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our driver, George the Masai, was Masai and he was amazing: he was able to see many animals without binoclars while we needed binoclar to see them. We saw the big five and also many other animals. It was an amazing experience, and we could have great pictures.
Communication was good with Vincent, he is really listening to your needs and can adjust if you have some issues during the Safari. In fact, there was nobody to pick us up when we reach Arusha, but he gave us the money back for the taxi we needed to take. Also, the itinerary changed during the Safari: at booking, we booked for Tarangire and finally the company changed plan during the Safari for Lake Manyara . I just had a call and it was arranged so we went to Tarangire as it was previously planned.
It was such a good experience and we recommend it.
Thank you!!

Incredible time with tour guide! Great food! Everything was perfect.
The communications for the safari were not too good. I was never sent a packing list or a confirmation document about being picked up from the airport but everything else was absolutely. The tour lived up the the exceptations and the food was good. If you are comfortable with camping in a tent, this is the perfect tour! Still can’t believe what an amazing time we had! Our guide was incredible and worked hard to find all the animals we wanted to see.

The operator arranged very excellent & guide/driver and we are satisfied with the services provided.
The operator arranged very good tented camps with good location and services in Kenya although our trip was last-min booking and some tents were changed. In addition, our guide/drivers in both Kenya and Tanzania are all pretty good with over 10 years of working experience as a tour guide. We look forward to getting back to Africa again in near future and highly recommend this tour company. It's better to book your safari trip as early as possible so that you can secure the tented-camps you like the most.

Really good organization. From picking up at the airport to the safari itself!!!Recommended!
The whole safari was amazing. The agency provided me help also in accommodation the first night before the start of Safari, taking also care of the others luggages I didn't need during the safari. Tha safari was amazing, we saw all species!!!! big 5 and more. The guide was helpful in recognizing species and in giving us some explanations - not so many detailed but useful in general. The first accommodation in the camp just outside masai mara was wonderful - as living close the savanna. The second accommodation at nakuru was perfect about the quality of theroom in the hotel, but food and general organization in the hotel was really scarce! Anyway, the beauty of Nakuru lake with rhino and flamingo definitely didn't make us think about.
Strongly recommend this experience and this agency!

Lovely Safari with some minor problems
I did a Safari with TripAdvisor Africa in August 2018. The safari included one day in Tarangire, two days in the Serengeti and one day in the Ngorongoro Crater. I got the contact details from the Tour operator, who always tried to help me through the problems who occured during the trip. The Tour operator is placed in Nairobi and has an operator in Arusha. The operator in Arusha was SafariBookEvolution. I can just advice you to tell the operator, not to use this guy. The first problem was he was not picking me up at the airport. I took a taxi instead which was quite expensive. TripAdvisorAfrica refunded that taxidrive in the end. The pick up for my travelmate did not work as well, even if I had telephone contact to the nairobi office. The operator in Arusha was out of control...
The morning the safari was taking place we were carried to an athiopian coffee where some people were sitting. The operator from arusha did not say hello and he was sitting at the neighbortable all the time. When he came to us he was offending and wanted to see the money right at the beginning. I told him, thta I do not do that and them he was telling me that I can go away. I kept cool and when I saw the safari car everything was fine. I guess Tripadvisorafrica quitted the contract with that operator afterwards. I was still able to stay in contact with them all the time, which gave me a better feeling. The safari itself was super great, we saw many animals and we had the best driver ever. Thanks brutus. The cook was great and the tents were in a good shape. The car was cleaned before the safari and I felt way better when we let that guy from safaribookevolution behind us.
After the safari the transport failed as well, but that was obviously and we were already prepared. We also got a refund for that.
In conclusion I already recommend that company two times. They are always there for you, you can stay in contact and they are thrusty. If something failes, they will refund you with the whole amount of money and they are paying the fees for the bank as well.
I was unlucky with my operator in arusha, but I would book with tripadvisorafrica again, but I would ask him to choose another operator in arusha instead of safaribookevolution.
