Very nice guide, with a lot of knowledge about the animals and the area.
5/5

We had a very nice safari with Paradise & Wilderness. The accomodations were very comfortable. Everything was well organized. We had a lot of fun with our guide Deo. He did the best effort, so that we could get the best pictures of the animals. We saw the complete big 5, which made our safari unforgetable.

The review below is the personal opinion of Valentina and not that of SafariBookings.
Poorly organised & we still haven't been refunded for cancelled activity
2/5

- Before the trip even started, communication (regarding payment & our pickup arrangement) with our booking agent was so terrible to a point where we suspected the legitimacy of this company.
- We had to chase our booking agent numerous times (payment has been made at this point) before he finally sent us a pickup driver's contact details
- Before we departed, we sent the pickup driver a message to confirm. He was surprised to hear from us as he wasn't aware of this pickup arrangement and said no-one had contacted him, nevertheless he still agreed to pick us up when we arrive (thank god).
- We we arrived, the pickup driver had no idea where to drop us off as he did not know anything about our itinerary. After many phone calls, he finally found out where we were staying and managed to drop us off at out accommodation. However he did not work for this company and it was still unclear why our booking agent had given us his details.
- the next day we found out one of our activities in Arusha wasn't booked and we had no idea until we arrived (after driving aimlessly for 2 hours).
- We requested for a refund for this cancelled activity as well as our accommodation for the night (as we wouldn't have booked accommodation for that night if it wasn't for the activity mentioned above).
- Staff agreed to refund the activity and suggested they would confirm with their management team and try to refund the accommodation, and promised to sort this out for us before our trip ends. We believe their words.
- After coming back from safari, we returned to Arusha for 1 extra day, We contacted the staff regarding our refund, they said they were still working on it.
- It's been a month since we are back from the trip, we have been contacting the company regarding this matter, and we have been ignored.
- It's been a really dodgy experience overall. Do yourself a favour and avoid this company.

On the 3th of october 2024 we went to Tanzania for safari and before and after that we stayed at Zanzibar in the reef &beach resort. We had a very beautiful time. Very good resort and very friendly people. It made our holidays unforgettable.

Amazing!
5/5

My 19yo son and I had a great time with our safari-guide Boni. He knew so much about all the animals and nature.

We stayed in great accomodations during the safari. We got wistles for the night, so we could blow the wistle at night if we were in trouble 😉

We have seen the Big 5 and a lot of other great animals.
Lunches were a great surprise every day, we loved it all.

Excellent safari through beautiful Tanzanian Wildlife parcs
5/5

We had a perfect safari in July 2024 with an excellent guide Deo through Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Sergengeti Parcs. So much beautiful wildlife we have seen and stories heard. And seeing the Big Five made it complete.
Only point of attention is the flight from Tanzania to Zanzibar. This is taking whole day for an 1 hour flight, this could be improved, we think.

Great experience for a once only trip
4/5

So. Don’t expect a room on arrival if you’ve travelled all night ! So tired ! But the staff are lovely and rooms are all you need. Food is plentiful in the main buffet but try the other restaurants.
Safari was amazing. The guides were exceptional. But this is not a trip for young children. A French family with a child that wouldn’t listen to the guides almost spoilt our whole trip. But. Overall a great experience.

Professionalism and Excellency!
5/5

WAW, the best travel experience we ever had! Tanzania and Zanzibar, fairytale and paradise in one country, amazing nature and great people, feeling of freedom and safety, wonderful accommodations and delicious food! A Dream of each world traveler!

We made a 16 days trip in May 2024, organized by Paradise & Wilderness (Beach & Safari), Tanzania, perfectly planned in all details.

Unforgettable 5 days Safari to the mainland Tanzania - Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro krater. After each unique day, we have been warmly welcomed in very comfortable and cozy lodges, by people with a great hospitality and delicious food. The Land Cruiser was well maintained, clean and safe. During the Safari we have been accompanied by Mr. Abel Shana, very experienced and professional ranger. Because of his passion for and a great knowledge of nature, he was able to show us the Beaty of Tanzania. He took a great care and gave us the feeling of safety during the trip. Thank you, Abel, for this unforgettable experience.

Zanzibar, a Dream of the Paradise! Endless view to the turquoise Indian Ocean, beautiful white sands beaches, sea world, great people! The place to feel free and happy!

And then one of the best hotels we have ever been – Dream of Zanzibar, 5 stars hotel, provided with all comfort and luxury. Everything is perfectly designed, the ambiance is amazing, the hygiene and the service are high quality, the choice of music, food and cocktails is excellent.

Our special appreciation is going to Mrs. Melanie Holterman, Business Development Manager at Paradise & Wilderness (Beach & Safari). Thankful to her we could experience Tanzania and Zanzibar at the best possible way. Thank you, Melanie, for everything we did for us! We will never forget your kindness and professionalism.

Everything perfectly arranged and a great experience
5/5

We enjoyed our safari with our private guide. All locations where we stayed were very good and the food was excellent.
Everything was perfectly arranged from the flights, pick-up, food and accommodation. For us it was perfect. Also thanks for our guide/driver. He managed to find the right striker. The big5 were all seen with young. How cool is that.
