5/5

It was amazing journey! For 5 days we saw: tarangire national park, ngorongoro national park, lake Manyara national park, and was on culture tour near Kilimanjaro (Chagga museum, coffee plantations, waterfall, base climbing camp). Everything was just in time. Food was great. Special thanks to: Shabani for perfect organization and no extra payments, chief Khabib for good and tasty food, Tony for interesting culture tour. We has only one bad moment: when we was on safari the driver drove the car so fast that my friend lost his pants. We tried searched - could not find the pants. Overall the journey was wonderful! Thank you!

5/5

On my to do list : A Safari in Africa. This is what I always dream on since my young age. We decided my girlfriend and I to take a trip to Tanzania to do a Safari. The Price in Canada are so expensive, so we decide to go with a local company and we found Wanyama African safari . I exchanged many email with Shabani (40 emails to be honest). The reply was always fast and seems to be a good company. But since we arrived at Kili (JRO) airport, I had somes doubts. Our drive and Guide Francis was there with a little sign with my name on it. From this moment my doubt was gone. He was there. Francis is a really good guide and a good men! A big talker and a big fan of wildlife. He picked up at the airport to dropped us at our first hotel. Shabani met us in the evening at our hotel to explain to us how it gonna work. He gaves us 3 phones numbers to join him 24h/7. WoW we are in confidence now in Wanyama African safari . You can trust them. We chose to go with Mixing safari with Lodge and Camping. If you ever choose camping, choose the place you want to stay because Shabani told me we can hear the roar of lions and the laughter of the hyenas while we camp, but the reality is we camp at the hotel camp site, which was outside of the parks site. So we slept in the yard of the hotel, it was like camp in my backyard with the sound of an angry women crying at her husband probably to drunk. The good part of the Camping is Anthon (our Cook) a real nice guy who prepare nice, simple but really good meal during camping. Back in Canada we tried to find a soup greater than Anthon's one, but for now we are unable!!! For the Lodge part, we stayed at Ikoma Camp Site. A really nice place where we met Pepe, the owner of the hotel. A funny and good men! But we ate the same things for 3 days! Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner! Ikoma is a good place go (beautiful and relaxing) but don't go there for the food. Tanzania remains on my do to list. I hope in the next few years! And I will take Wanyama African safari again for my trip! I hope the best for this company and you can trust them for your dream to make a Safari

5/5

This safari was probably the best exprerience I had in Tanzania .. I had some trouble when I arrived : The airplane company lost my bag .. But thanks to Shabani I got it back during the safari .. in the middle of nowhere ..
Moreover everything was done to help you in any way : Next to the safari which was great (the car was confortable, the food excellent and the accomodation as great as you can expect in the parks) Shabani helped me to organise my travel next to the safari : Thanks to his knowledge of the country, his commitment to please you, I had a great time ... In a nutshell do not hesitate to make the safari through his company !!!

Friendly and professional staff + enjoyable safari
5/5

We had four different tours with Mr. Shabani:
1) the 5-day safari visiting Lake Manyara / Serengeti / Tarangire/ Ngorongoro Crater (we also saw rhino),
2) half-day walking tour of Arusha city (main market and famous landmarks),
3) 1-day tour of Kilimanjaro without hiking (banana and coffee plantation, cave and waterfall) and
4) 1-day hiking tour of Arusha surrounding (visiting locals and their real life, banana and coffee plantation, waterfall).

They all went very well and we enjoyed them very much. Mr. Shabani and his personnel (the guides, the driver and the cook) were very friendly and professional. The price was very attractive with the service that we received. We definitely meet them again, if we come to Arusha.

5/5

Shabani was so nice and accommodating to us when we booked our safari, we got a few quotes before him but didn't really know much about what was a good deal and after we booked we found out our deal was fantastic. The four day safari was the perfect time frame. Our driver was amazing as well, we saw the big five and had so much fun with him and our cook, who made the best food we had on our entire month long trip. When in doubt, go with Shabani's company, you won't regret it!

We had a fantastic time with African Travel Tour! great value for the money!!

Mr Shabani was great and provided everything as he said it will be. we had no run downs or disappointments. we manage to see the big 5! had a great driver (Richard) and lovely chef (Erik).

from the 1st moment with Shabani we felt like there is no need to worry about a thing and everything will be organized on the best way and so it was. Superb!

I would recommend to people who would like to go to the Safari to check African Travel Tours as one of the more reliable options for it.

We have been traveling with African Travel Tour in 2 days/1 night camping safari with Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Crater. We were absolutelly satisfied with work of African Travel Tour company owner - Mr. Shabani. He is honest and very kind man! All services were absolutely great for affordable price.
I am sure, that if we will ever visit Africa again, I will work with Mr. Shabani again!
