Trip of a lifetime thanks to Tanzania Expeditions
We just returned from a once in a lifetime safari trip to Africa. Our expectations going over were high and we were not disappointed thanks to Tanzania Roadside Expeditions. About 1 year ago, we began our search for a company willing to work with us to make dream trip come true. After much research, we narrowed the choices down to Tanzania Expeditions and a couple other companies. Luckily, Zephania responded to our inquiries back then and it became apparent that they were the most interested in working with us to make our dream trip a reality. We were a group of 13 people and had an itinerary in mind. We wanted to visit Amboseli and Masai Mara in Kenya as well as Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro in Tanzania, followed by a beach break in Zanzibar. We requested to do a hot air ballon ride for a birds eye view of the great migration. It was also important to fly from Amboseli to Masai to avoid a lengthy drive. Zephania expertly crafted an itinerary for us, met those goals and more. He patiently tweaked the plan until we were 100% happy with the results. His proposal was all inclusive, with no additional surprise fees as I had read for some competitors and at a reasonable cost considering the logistics complexity and the quality of all aspects of the trip. Furthermore, he was able available while we were on the trip whenever we had a question. He even went to greet us at the airport when we arrived, which was like reuniting with an old friend.
It’s hard to say what impressed us the most about the trip. Obviously, the beautiful animals and nature we observed up close were the main highlights. Looking at a lion in the eye, watching a baby elephant throw a cute tantrum at our vehicles, catching a dramatic sunset as we drove into Serengeti, observing what appeared to be a feeble and peaceful Cape buffalo aggressively chase away several lions … the list of memorable moments is endless. Without a doubt, the experiences were made possible by the team of competent guides, Keffa, Peter, Ezequiel and Walter (a.k.a. Man Man), who shared a wealth of information, made us feel at ease at all times and pampered us throughout the Safaris. The gorgeous accommodations where we stayed, the amazing people who greeted us and made us feel welcome every time we arrived, the delicious food we tasted, the incredible experiences such as the Serengeti balloon ride or swimming with the dolphins in Zanzibar were the icing on the cake. It was a trip of superlatives, and we made memories we’ll never forget thanks to Tanzania Expeditions.

Excellent tour company
Wonderful tour company. We were able to customize our tour. Very reasonably priced with 5 star accommodations and food. Paul the owner was easy to communicate with. Ezekiel was an excellent tour guide and he knows all the parks well including the back roads and shortcuts so we were able to see thousands of animals. Book early for the best accommodations as they do fill up early. It was the best choice to go with a local tour company. They love showing off their country and they do it wel.

Reliably, customers friendly, experienced.
I enjoyed my trip with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions very much, the communication with the company was perfect, they kept everything which was agreed. The guide was friendly, experienced, I got a lot of informationn about the park and wildlife, and he was also an excellent driver. If I come to Tamzania again in the future, I will contact Tanzania Road Expeditions again.

Excellent service
It was great to make two trips with Roadside Tanzania. We went with a group of seven a full day to Tarangire National Park, and about a week later with a different group of 7 a full day to the Ngorongoro crater. Both days went excellently well. Pick up was exactly on time. The guide on both trips (Ezekiel) was experienced and knew a lot about all aspects, not only the safari side, but also Tanzania & Masai culture and so on. The jeeps were good and performed well, lunch was great (not the usual 'box lunch' with sandwiches, but a warm lunch with rice, potatoes, vegetables and chicken). And enough water and soft drinks for all. Apart from the elusive leopard, we got to see all the animals we were hoping for. I highly recommend this company to anyone.

Perfect
Thank you so much to Gadiel. It made my Serengeti trip perfect, which I was looking forward to and worried about. I was worried about a safari tour during the rainy season, but the driving was perfect. Our car didn't have to worry about falling out. It was difficult for Koreans to have the mindset of African pollepolle and Hakunamata, but they did a great job so it didn't get hard at all. They set up all the schedules and worked well for us. 너무너무 추천합니다! 감사합니다
I can see big5 thank you gadiel

If you want a stress-free, fun (and great value) experience, go with TRE.
We scheduled a luxury safari in the fall of 2024 for April 2025. Our initial contact was Zephania who worked with us and arranged a safari that looked both exciting and comfortable. He was always available and responsive to help alleviate any concerns or questions we had.
Upon arriving, we were shown around Arusha by Ano, another employee of Tanzania Roadside, where we tried some local food and visited an art museum. He made the transition from Spain to Tanzania seamless. Zephania met with us that evening at the hotel to explain the protocol, and the next morning we met our guide, Gadiel.
Gadiel took us on our once-in-a-lifetime adventure for 4 days. We visited Tanagire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro (to the LIMIT in each park!), staying at luxurious lodges arranged with Zephania throughout. It was incredible: so many animals and so many beautiful landscapes.
Gadiel was very informative and had eyes sharp as a hawk. In April, the grass is a little taller, so it is difficult to see certain animals. However, Gadiel managed to see what non-experts could not, was willing to go down game roads less traveled, and, ultimately, we managed to see so many species (including ALL of the big 5!). He was also very helpful in transitions between parks/lodges and with any issues we had. He made the experience not just stress free but really fun.
Going on a safari can be a life-changing experience with the right team. I can safely say that the team of Tanzanira Roadisde Expeditions (Zephania, Ano, and, particularly, Gadiel) would an excellent choice. We will see them again.

Ezequiel Masai is the best guide
The experience with Tanzanian Road Expedition has been very good. I really enjoyed it!
Our guide, Ezequiel Masai, was amazing—an attentive guide who explained everything we were seeing with great enthusiasm. He also respected our pace, always stopped whenever we needed, and did everything possible to make sure we saw as many animals as possible.
