Allen, our guide, was beyond outstanding; his depth of experience and knowledge is truly astounding.
Allen Tanzania Safaris was recommended to us by a friend. We expected Allen and his staff to be very good; however, they surpassed our expectations. They were outstanding. Allen was our guide/driver and I think he is peerless as a safari guide/driver. His nearly 30 years of safari experience and his depth of knowledge about the diverse habitats and species of the area made all the difference. Allen helped us see and identify over 150 different species of birds, 2 separate river crossings of wildebeest, rhino, and lions and lions and lions and so much more. If your interest is birds, Allen is your man. If your interest is more than simply wildlife viewing but getting a deeper understanding of the wildlife and ecosystems, Allen is your man. In addition to his extraordinary expertise as a guide, Allen is engaging, friendly, and kind - a wonderful person. His staff, Adam, Amani, and Silas were all extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledeable. In planning our trip, Silas was very responsive, flexible, detailed, and informative. His management of our itinerary was smooth and there was not a single problem or glitch. We've had a wonderful experience with Allen and his staff that we'll never forget and we've made new friends in the process.

Amazing company and guide, will recommend to everyone
Our experience with Allen far surpassed our expectations. This was a magical four days for us that we will think about for the rest of our lives and we are already planning on going back. The choices were overwhelming, with what seems like an infinite amount of tour operators existing in the area, but we were so happy with our choice. Allen's knowledge is incredible, the accommodations were clean and picturesque, the food was much more than you'd expect on safari, the car was modern and spacious (and we had it all to ourselves) and we had more intimate encounters with wildlife than I could have hoped for. Will recommend to all our family and friends.

3 day Tanzania safari (solo)
Selecting a safari tour operator is a daunting task, and I could not have been happier with my decision. From the initial inquiry all the way through my trip the communication with Allen Tanzania Safaris was easy and quick. Silas reached out to me the day before my safari to let me know my driver's name, to confirm pickup location and lunch option for the first day. Amani was a wonderful guide, even spotting a leopard in a tree while driving that I couldn't even see when I zoomed in with my camera! He (Amani) was a wealth of information as I asked questions about places or items we saw on the way to the different parks, different animals and birds, and always communicated exactly what the plan was each day.
The lodge that Allen Tanzania Safaris use (Eileen Trees Inn) has to be one of the most beautiful properties I have ever stayed at, the pictures online do not do it justice. The food and service are superb!

I do believe he knows every square meter of the Serengeti! :)
This was a very memorable visit - we saw just about every animal we could have hoped for, often several sightings. Every moment was accompanied by a knowledgable explanation of how it all fits into the broader ecosystem. I've never learned so much in a single travel experience! Highly recommended.

After 8 safaris, this is the best company I've worked with!
I have traveled to Africa at least two dozen time and completed 8 safaris. As professional photographer, my expectations a very high. Out of my 8 safaris, 3 have been with Allen, over the course of 20 years. This is the best testimonial for the high quality of my experiences with Allen Tanzania Safaris. Allen is a great human being and so are the members of his staff. Should I go on safari one more time, I will call Allen again. No doubt in my mind!

Allen Mnyenye offers a well-planned, informational and thoroughly enjoyable safari experience.
To celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary, we wanted to share with our children and grandchildren (ages 7-10 years) the unique natural beauty and welcoming hospitality of Tanzania. This was our third safari with Allen Tanzania Safaris and Allen outdid himself! His planning and execution of the 1500 km trip were impeccable - AGAIN! His humor and patience helped immensely with our grandchildren's enjoyment and appreciation of this special experience. Our strong endorsement of AllenTanzania Safaris is based on a 20-year relationship with Allen Mnyenye and his highly qualified and professional drivers and guides.
