Fantastic!
I did many safari, in South Africa, Namibia and Kenya, but I never saw so many animals like in Tanzania.
We also had a good time with hadzabe tribe.
A special thanks to Isaack that was a super good guide!

Best Adventure Ever
Awesome tours with really professional staff!!
From the first day to the last day, everything was perfectly arranged.
it was for sure the best trip i ever made, from the transportation, food , people, camps, amazing places that we've been, everything seemed like taken from a movie.
I am really thankful to It started in Africa company for giving me such a fantastic trip with such prefect condition.
I want to give a special thanks to David, our driver, for everything, he was restless to giving us the best possible experience.
And to our cooker, for the amazing meals that he prepared us.
Thanks "It started in Africa" for everything!!!

Great experience!
We really liked the safari, all of it! We saw so many animals and all were so close by!
It really was a great experience. And we saw all of the big five and even a lot of little ones! Our driver, Dickson, was great and our cook, Obed, made excellent food! We would recommend It started to Africa to everyone! We stayed at the campsites which were surrounded by the beautiful nature!
It started in Africa: thanks for all!
Fantastic climb of Kilimanjaro
Myself and three friends booked the eight day Lomosho route up Kilimanjaro. We could not have wished for a better time, we are all quite experienced mountaineers but the whole team looked after us from bottom to top and back to the bottom again. Everyone one of the team from the guides to the porters were great guys who went the extra mile to look after us and with a big smile on their faces as well. Could not have wished for a better experience.
A lifetime experience!
We did 5 days and 4 nights of safari according to the advice of It Started in Africa team. It couldn’t be better. We saw all the big 5, the chosen parks were awesome as all the staff (guide and chef). I don’t have words to describe how careful ISIA team can be, I honestly felt that for them our experience and satisfaction is a priority and they were able to adapt and deliver it. They also helped us with everything in our Zanzibar’s trip and what a huge help it was.
Please keep up the passion you have for this and for sure i will to do it again!!!
For those who are searching to have this kind of experience, don’t think twice to do it with It Started in Africa.

Amazing!!
We used ISIA to book a 10 day Kenya/Tanzania safari and then a 6 day Kili climb. Everyone was amazing from the planning process to the execution. They are quick to answer emails, their prices are very reasonable and our whole trip went off seamlessly. All of our guides were excellent as well as the porters on the Kili climb, funny and happy and so personable! We did Rongai route and I would recommend it as it was beautiful and not crowded. On Safari we saw all the animals and our budget level accommodations were extremely comfortable and exceeded my expectations. Try camping - it is more fun than you know to lay in a tent and listen to lions roar from afar ! We even had a group of hyenas visit our campsite in the serengeti one night and that was great fun!
I can't recommend this company more strongly! Just go, you will have the time of your life! Thanks so much to Joao and everyone at ISIA for an amazing trip!

Unforgettable experience!
As a small group of three, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip & we all agree that it one of the most memorable experiences we've ever had. I have highly recommended 'It Started in Africa' to all of my friends & will continue you to do so. From start to finish, the service provided was excellent, with prompt & efficient email replies to advice & guidance in relation to tour packages. Hendre Francisco lived up to his job title as Happiness Manager & did all in his power to make me happy.
The only negative aspects of the trip were the obvious tourist trap stop offs & unfortunately the Masai Village visit. We felt as though we were being rail roaded into buying over priced souvenirs & paying more than needed for the extras. We did not enjoy the Masai Village we visited as we were told to pay $30 entry & were then pressured to buy overpriced souvenirs before leaving. Considering the cost of the trip in general, we found the extra costs to be unexpected.
On the other hand, we were extremely impressed by the accommodation provided during our trip. We stayed at wonderful lodges & campsites throughout our trip. We were also very happy with Martin, our tour guide. He was very friendly, helpful & accommodating. He happily answered all of our questions & sharwd his knowledge & experience. We were lucky enough to see The Big 5 at the Mara & also experienced the migration of the wildebeest, which was truly amazing. We would like to give a special mention to the Punda Millias lodge where we were upgraded on the final night of our trip ;) We had a wonderful stay there to finish off the fantastic Kenyan experience.
I will continue to recommend It Started in Africa to everyone I know & hopefully they will get to experience a Kenyan safari like we did.

Ten extraordinary days with the big five
We are very happy with this safari and the organization was perfect. Tom, our guide did his job to our satisfaction. A journey of 10 extraordinary days without any mechanical problem or other. We can only recommend It Started in Africa, reference agency!
Wonderful Safari, Perfect Service! It Started in Africa is THE company to choose
We are extremely happy with our safari and would definitely recommend It Started in Africa! From the trip organization till the very end of the safari, everything has gone very smoothly.
The safari itself has been an incredible and fabulous experience. Our guide Charles definitely contributed to make this trip unforgettable thanks to his professionalism, friendliness and great commitment to show the best of this beautiful nature and wildlife. We were able (and lucky) to see all Big Fives, a Cheetah hunt..etc. So big thanks again to Charles and to It Started in Africa!!
