A truly great experience with amazing guides!
We did a 4-day tour of the parks Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Started with Tarangire and spent a night there (with a swimming pool!). The second day was mostly driving through Ngorongoro Reserve to get to Serengeti where we were for the rest of the day and one day more. The final day we slept with an amazing view over Ngorongoro Crater where we spend the day before driving back to Arusha. We slept in tents (to out of three had a broken zipper), we had an amazing dinner every night with wine and soup, coffee and tea in the afternoon.
They matched our requests perfectly in the terms of budget and game watching and our driver was so nice and kept answering all our questions about the animals we saw. And we saw a lot!
They could have been more informative, though. It was hard to keep track of what we were doing and we had to ask a lot of questions to keep track of the program.

It was Perfect!!!!
We booked a 3 day safari in Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. From the beginning, everything worked out great. Daniel (organizer) always responded immediately to my emails and was always available to answer my questions. I had a very good feeling from the beginning and that was confirmed. Everything was great, the whole staff was always friendly, we had lots of fun and we had fantastic 3 days on safari. I would book a safari over Daniel right away, it was perfect and I would recommend it to anyone. Thanks again to Daniel and best regards also to our Driver Daniel.

Amazing safari!
My safari was sorted out for me through this company, I did not have to do anything myself. The staff were great and provided tents and sleeping bags with a comfortable mattress - allowing us to visit beautiful campsites. It was made very easy for me by the staff and I had no worries before or on the safari so I could fully enjoy the experience.
Amazing staff who were very attentive and full of knowledge. I learned a lot about the animals on the safari and was able to see a wide range: elephants, giraffes, lions, buffalos, gazelles, hippos, rhinos, zebras and different types of birds. We were taken to the most breathtaking places by the staff in the comfort of a safari truck.
The food on the safari was incredible and prepared very quickly. In the day time we were provided with a packed lunch box full of multiple items. On the second day we were provided with a large brunch - we certainly did not go hungry! At dinner each night there was plenty of food to fill us up after a long day of travelling. We had a starter, main and desert. The staff were adaptable for me as I am a vegetarian they provided separate dishes which were meat free and very delicious. As we had so much food we did not have to bring any of our own which was extremely convenient.
I would most definitely use this company again and Daniel Shamba was extremely helpful in making sure the safari runs smoothly and he was great at answering any questions we had. I recommend this company to anyone who wants an epic African Adventure - I most certainly enjoyed mine!

Amazing, marvellous
We had a three days Trip to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and Taragire Nationalpark organized by Daniel Shamba from Epic Africa Adventure. I contacted him from Germany as I knew him before from trips in 2015. In a quick and efficient way he asked what we wanted and with that he arranged a really wonderful Safari for us. Everything was in time, we had a very friendly driver, Daniel booked a nice lodge for us and we always felt very good cared for. He regarded our special wishes and if I ever return to Tanzania for Safari I will of course contact him again. I can recommend Epic Africa Adventure with all of my heart.

We received a 5-star treatment and a highly professional approach!
We went to a 1-day safari to Tarangire National park. We received a 5-star treatment and a highly professional approach that has preceeded all our expectations! Since our stay in Tanzania was rather short we could only afford a time-limited safari experience, however, we could not have been more satisfied with the overall outcome! The day we arrived at the hostel - one day before our safari trip - Daniel - the operator of the Epic Africa Adventure, whom we had been communicating with before our journey, came to introduce himself and our tourguide Ephata in person, which was really sweet and very professional of him. Our tour guide Ephata was absolutely the nicest and we've really enjoyed the whole day with him. He truly knew alot about all the species and animals we've seen throughout our game drive. He always gave us space to ask him questions and to take pictures of all the beauty that was surrounding us. We saw lions, giraffes, antelopes, lots of zebras, elephants and numbers of wilderbeast that were just migrating towards the west moving in huge troops. After good 4 hours of driving we took a rest, while having a nice picknik provided by the tour company and continued with driving towards the Tarangire river.
The day after, Daniel gave us a really nice call, he asked us how everything was going and whether we've been satisfied with all that we saw. He wished us a nice journey, good luck and a safe way back home.
To sum up, we would totally recommend Epic Adventures, whether you are planning on going for a 1-day, 2-day or x-day safari tour! We felt like we've been given a highly personalized approach not only while driving around the park but also before and after the tour. Daniel truly cares about his customers, which definitely adds up on the overall experience. Ours was really unforgettable :)
More than helpful, friendly and easy experience!
I booked a safari through one of the colleagues Daniel Shamba. He answered all of my questions very quickly, gave lots of information and worked hard to find the best option for me. The deal was negotiated well and I felt like I had a good say in what I wanted. He continued to be of help when we got to the country - driving to meet us when necessary. So overall a very good and efficient service would highly recommend!

A wonderful trip to Arusha and safari tour.
we travel for 3 days. the first day we were in Arusha and in the second day we drove to Tarangire. in the last day, we drove to Ngorongoro crater.
first, daniel was great. we talked with him via what's up and email and he was kind and answer all our questions with patience. We compare many companies and Daniel gave us the best price and service. He is an honest person and gave us confidence before the trıp and at our stay there!!!
The Safari Driver (sorry but I forgot his name) has a lot of knowledge about the wildlife and nature andHe was a professional and nice.
I must mention we had a small problem on the first night with the hotel but this is a small problem compared to of the excellent trip we experienced.

Perfect safari with great driver and cook
We had a wonderful safari! Everything was perfect and organized greatly. The driver/guide had so much knowledge of all the animals and parks. It was exceptional and so much fun to learn from him. The facilities were great and awesome to camp within the parks. The food was delicious and Richard is a great cook and nice.
Overall a great safari with everything you need to stay within a normal budget. We were also allowed to borrow the sleeping bags for our hike on mt meru for free. Which is very nice of Daniel.
Thanks for the great safari and we will definitely use this company again!

Had a wonderful expierence
The first time I went on safari with Daniel's company was in May 2015. This year I came back to Tanzania and decided to go with Daniel again, because we've had a really good expierence. The drivers were really nice and they have a lot to say about the animals. The food was delicious, but way too much! We had soup, potatoes, vegetables, rice, salad... Richard is a really good cook.
If I come back to TZ I will not hestitate to go on safari with epicafricaadventures again.
