Mikumi with Joseph
Safari in Mikumi for two days with excelent guide Joseph Tarimo was the unbelievable experience.
He picked us up from the hotel, took us to Mikumi and back to the hotel after the safari.
His knowledges about the nature in Tanzania, very kindfull and friendly approach to us, nothing was a problem and everything was, how we agreed before our journey.
He cared about us, told us many interesting things not only about the nature.
We can definitelly recomend him. For those poeple, who are really interested about the nature and life in Tanzania.
Thanks to Joseph we have the best experiences, what we could have. Thanks a lot for everything!!!

Great friendly service!
We reached out to Lovely Safari when we decided to visit Tanzania. We told them what we were interested in, what our travel & hiking experience was, and the time frame we had for travel. They provided a suggested itinerary with cost and we adjusted it to fit our needs. Communication via email was easy, even with the time difference. Wire transferring the fees was a little confusing, but not the fault of Lovely Safari. We used Wise to pay the balance.
We communicated with Jesca primarily leading up to our trip, and then met Joseph at the airport. We didn't realize that he would be staying with us for the duration of our stay in Tanzania. We got along with him well, so it was a pleasant surprise! We experienced a few things like that which may have been lost in translation or different styles of communication...but everything worked out lovely.
Joseph set us up with our guides for Kilimanjaro, and even ended up hiking to the summit with us for his first time! We ended up being a little family exploring the country together, and we ended up nicknaming him Broseph, because he really did become our little brother! Joseph coordinated all of our travel, food, lodging, etc. We literally didn't have to do a thing or think about anything except enjoying our trip.
After hiking Kilimanjaro, he became our safari driver and guide, and this is where he really thrived! He is an excellent driver and is very knowledgeable about the national parks and the animals. He has great eyes for spotting the wildlife and he was able to find us every animal we could have hoped for! He then joined us for our flight to Zanzibar, where he connected us (and joined us!) for our ocean adventures.
Joseph is very easy going, and would be best guiding easy going travelers who like to smile and laugh. His English is wonderful and we would be lucky to reunite with him again in the future. Thank you Broseph! We love you!
Freaking amazing!!
The whole safari was incredible, our guid Joseph is brilliant man who knows everything about animal, a share with us!
Thanks a lot

BEST of the BEST!
Great communication and itineraries. Tanzania is home to Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater; this fact alone makes a solid case for declaring it Africa’s best safari country. But, of course, there’s much more than just these two places. our Tour Guide, Mrs. Evarist showed us their unbelievable density of Big Five species and sublime beauty, this amazing region around the gateway city of Arusha also includes Tarangire (huge dry season herds) and Lake Manyara (flamingos, tree-climbing lions, and Rift Valley scenery) national parks which are awesome in their own right.
what surprised me is the quality of the parks in Tanzania, which has set aside a full one-third of its land as wildlife preserves. Some of the other safari destinations, that Mr. Tarimo and Evarist took us to include, Ruaha National Park, and Selous Game Reserve. Jessica Evarist, our tour guide offered great itineraries with wildlife watching on par with the more famous parks, but without the crowds. In these places, the deep wilderness experience is a major draw, but there’s no need to sacrifice on comfort since the tented camps and lodges are as good as anywhere else, thanks to the manager, Mr. Tarimo. I 100% advise that you consider Lovely Safari as your travel option. Next time, I will visit habituated chimpanzees in Gombe National Park, to do revolutionary research. See you soon Joseph and Jessica!!

Lifetime Experience
Wonderful experience with our guide Joseph. We visited Mikumi national park for 3 days. He is very knowledgeable about the country, animals, plants, birds, and great at spotting the animals! The vehicle was comfortable and exactly what we were expecting. Fun, fascinating, exciting trip...thank you Joseph for showing us your beautiful country. Very happy with the trip and would recommend to anyone with a passion for wildlife.

Great time with Joseph.
We went with Joseph for a 3 days trip to Mikumi from Dar es Salaam.
We enjoyed the whole stay very much, even the long transfer form Dar es Salaam to Mikumi and back. Joseph has excellent knowledges about the nature, culture and country. But what I find important is that he could also pass this information with a very good english so that we can really good talk about everything.
He is very enthusiastic about what he is doing and that is something you appreciate on safari with him.
Joseph is amazing guide
We were at 2 days (one night) trip to safari with Josef. Everything was as we arranged. He knows many interesting things about animals and nature where they live. He answered all our questions. There is nothing what we missed. Thank you one more time.
