Top Notch Customer Service
A year ago, when I went to my bank to wire transfer a large deposit for our safari trip to Tanzania Roadside Expeditions, my banker looked deep into my eyes with worry: "Tanzania? Large amount? One year ahead deposit? You have never met the 'tour operator'? Are you out of your mind? Is this an international scam?"
Well, I just finished my 13-day Kenya-Tanzania safari with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions, and I can assure you, Tanzania Roadside Expeditions is not only a legitimate company, but they also distinguished themselves above all others while handling challenging situations. They showcase great leadership, grace, generosity, and excellent people skills.
The last day of our trip was a jeep ride from Masai Mara back to Nairobi International Airport. Because of the driver's miscalculation on timing, plus a series of unfortunate events, I was late to the airport. The airline canceled my entire two-leg flight and charged me a heavy fine for a "no-show." Nairobi airport terminal doesn't open for passengers who have no ticket; under the hot sun outside the building, I was fortunately able to secure a later flight. The price, including the no-show fine, was so high that it made me even hotter.
I called Tanzania Roadside Expeditions and explained what had happened. Paul, the great tour operator, immediately acknowledged that the driver didn't depart early enough, which caused my trouble. He didn't blame, didn't argue, didn't negotiate; he only asked to see the receipt of my new purchase. On behalf of his company, he took full responsibility and gracefully promised reimbursement for such unexpected costs. He wished me a safe flight home with his warm wishes. Standing in front of the Nairobi airport terminal, I was in tears from his kindness, understanding, and courage to shoulder his responsibilities with dignity. After all, this extra cost was a very big chunk of their income as well, yet he put his client's best interest as the top priority, all the way to the last day of the trip.
When I landed back home in Seattle, his reimbursement fund landed as well. I am amazed by this excellence.
Traveling sometimes takes unexpected turns, especially on a wild safari trip. But when you sign up with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions, Paul is there for you—he has you covered. Hakuna Matata!

Fantastic, communicators, and outstanding guides
From the initial communication to the final drop off, we had excellent communication and excellent care. We had a Guide in Kenya named Jackson. Jackson was extremely knowledgeable and extremely dedicated to finding as many animals as possible. He was very kind, caring and enthusiastic about answering our many questions. We then had a Guide named Moses during our Tanzania portion of the Safari. Moses led us through Serengeti National Park as well as the Ngorongoro crater. He had 15 years of experience and did an outstanding job locating animals and educating us about the beautiful natural environment and its interaction with the animals. He was also very kind, caring and enthusiastic about answering any questions. Both of our guides were interested in what we wanted to see and completely catered to our individual requests for what we wanted our Safari itinerary to be The accommodations were beautiful and comfortable. We stayed within the national park. The food was excellent. The service and staff at each site were outstanding. Everyone was available to assist you with any need at a moments notice. Everyone always with a smile.
Truly, an adventure and journey of a lifetime filled with inspiration, kindness, love, and hope

Highly recommend Tanzania Roadside
We just returned from a 10 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Tanzania Roadside and it truely was a trip of a lifetime. When I was planning it, Paul responded very quickly to all my questions and emails and their price was good compared to other companies. In Kenya, we were lucky to start out with Peter who drove us to Masai Mara, he was very knowledgeable and showed us some amazing animal sites including front row seats to the great wildebeast crossing. Then we crossed the boarder into Tanzania and was passed over to Ezekiel who was also very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. He was able to get us up close to so many of the animals and also got to see another wildebeast crossing. Thank You so much (asante sana) to the whole team for a wonderful trip and also a thank you to Ezekiel and Keffa for going out of your way to get our binoculars back to us that we left behind before we flew home.

A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
For the second week of July 2026 (followed by an extra week of beach vacation in Zanzibar), we had booked a private safari tour through Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater National Parks with TANZANIA ROADSIDE EXPEDITIONS. Their CEO, Paul Justine, carefully planned and organized everything down to the last detail. We were assigned Anocell as our driver and guide, accompanied by his assistant and highly capable trainee, Alphonse. Their expertise regarding the landscapes and wildlife was truly profound. But what impressed us most of all was Anocell’s ability - thanks to his intuition and years of experience - to position his vehicle as close as possible to the wild animals, including the BIG FIVE. Of course, the car windows were closed for safety reasons; otherwise we could have almost touched them on many occasions. The absolute highlight among countless others was the zebra hunt by two lionesses that started right next to our Land Cruiser.
But on a personal level, too, this was a wonderful experience. Anocell and Alphonse were so friendly, helpful and supportive in every way. We met as strangers on the first day and said goodbye as friends on the last day. Thank you for everything !
If you’re ever planning to have such a unique experience we can highly recommend TANZANIA ROADSIDE EXPEDITIONS. Ask for Anocell or Alphonse as Guide / Driver !

A Story Comes True
A favorite bedtime story I told my daughter came true when we visited Tanzania and Kenya together. The elephants, zebras, lions, rhinos, and other animals I described nightly appeared right before us in our game truck! Along with my husband we enjoyed 12 days of exploration, delicious cuisine, authentic safari camps, and conversations ranging from wildlife behavior to local customs. We really enjoyed the company of our guides and the hospitality of everyone who made our trip memorable.

Amazing Safari experience
Amazing safari experience in Tanzania! Alphonse and James were exceptional — always on time, very gentle and professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals. They explained everything in detail and made the whole experience even more special and interesting. We felt safe, comfortable, and learned so much throughout the trip. Highly recommended!

We had the most amazing and exciting experience for our honeymoon in Tanzania!
After deciding on our honeymoon to Tanzania, we communicated with Zephania for our trip for 11days including safari and trip to Zanzibar. I have reached out to other safari tours as well, but Tanzania roadside was the one with the most reasonable price :) Not only about the pricing but Zephania was very instant in replies with details and also gave nice recommendations for the luxurious lodges and accomodations!
After arrival, we had 7days of safari with our guide GADIEL, who I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! He was our guide, our friend and teacher to share cultures and stories about Tanzania and animals!
We were able to see more than 30 LIONS even with their calves 🦁 and other diverse animal families. Due to Gadiel’s effort we not only succeeded in spotting big 5, but were to see leopard very closely, everybody envying our spot 👍🏻 and the first one to find out rhino in Ngorongoro!! Super EXCITING.
It was beyond expectation to be with Gadiel and Tanzania roadside! I believe there are other well known safari tour guides for Korean, but i strongly suggest Tanzania roadside, which one will definitely enjoy.

A wealth of knowledge!
Our experience with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions was AMAZING! We had a private tour and were able to see so much of Kenya and Tanzania. We had a seperate guide for each country. Both provided a wealth of knowledge about the geography, wildlife, and culture of the areas we visited. Our tour lasted 6 days, and honestly that was not enough. We look forward to booking again in the future.
