Excellent planning and choice of accomodations
Tanzaniaspecialist provided an interesting Safari route, with great accomodations. Everything was very well organized and communicated clearly.
The concept of travelling with a personal guide in a landcruiser works very well and ensures you can make personal decisions around interests and travelling times. Also lots of opportunity to take beautiful photo's and ask questions.
Overall a fantastic experience!

everything was very well organized ;except the additional proposals which were very expensive
very good organization and standards corresponding to our expectation ;
The guide /driver was very professional ; the pedestrian tour with the ranger was a very good experience
But , the proposal for additional activities in arusha are extremely expensive and of no interest ( except the market )
The night safary was very interesting but far too expensive
The scuba diving was not exiting , not possible to dive with the safety jacket ; far too much people ; and therefore no security to follow the diver

The name TanzaniaSpecialist is absolutely entitled
We would therefore like to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt thanks to the staff of Tanzania Specialist after the end of our trip. During the tour in Tanzania our contacts with the staff were as quick and reliable as before. The itineraries were perfectly coordinated and made our holidays in Tanzania easy going.
The Fun Beach Resort on Zanzibar and the other lodges during the Safari were all well chosen and we would recommend them at any time. Each of the lodges has its own charm......
The Fun Beach Resort shines with its oversized pools and overall quiet laid-back vibe.
The Sound of Silence Tented Camp and the Maramboi Tented Lodge we found to be outstanding in every respect.
The Rhino Lodge, on the other hand, shines with its central location in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the wild animals grazing directly in front of the terrace and the unrestricted hospitality and delicious food.
The Farm of Dreams Lodge and the Kudu Lodge in Karatu impress with their park-like outdoor areas, opportunities to relax by the pools, huge rooms/apartments and hospitality as well.
We got on really well with our Guide during 11 days Safari staying together. He was always reliable, punctual and approachable, in a good mood and gave us great experiences, especially when observing animals. We were very enthusiastic about his eye for animals hidden in the grass, his networking and communication with other guides in the savannah, his experience in bringing us close to animals and positioning the vehicle in such a way that we could enjoy the best views. We got to see all the animals and saw them in front of the camera several times in a wide variety of scenarios and were able to observe them in detail and, if desired, for a longer time.
Finally we can say the concept/advantage of our wished private safari was fully realized and we felt very comfortable with it throughout the safari. All the time we could concentrate on and enjoy the daily experience. We visited 4 National Parks and were very happy in for example choosing 4 nights and therefore 3,5 days gamedrive in the Serengeti NP. So you are at no time in a hurry during the observation of animals or landscape szeneries, during pauses and you have more options for longer routes inside the Park boundary.
Should we want to go on safari again (for example during the calving-season in January/February in the southern Serengeti/Ndutu region) we will certainly contact Tanzania Specialist !!

Everything worked out so perfectly. We were amazed. No desire remained unfulfilled.
The organization was so perfect. There was no useless communication but every request was taken care of. We never arrived anywhere (airport, hotel , ..) without a Tansania Specialist person to assist and take care of our matters. Transfer and pick up services were so reliable and always on time.
Our safari with our guide Anthony Joseph was a once in a lifetime experience and a dream came true. Anthony was so highly motivated, careful and patient in offering us the best experience possible. On our first day in the Serengeti, the highlight of all parks we visited, we were given the chance to see 30 lions. The accomododations were absolutely stunning. We especially loved the Maisha Camp in the Serengeti, because of the service, the tented lodge and the scenery there. Anthony had always been highly aware of our time frame but at the same time made us feel so relaxed when it came to seeing animals. We felt so safe in trusting him that he would take care of our desires in the absolutely best way possible.
Then we had a one week stay in Zanzibar. We stayed at an Eco Bungalow at Cristal Resort. If we were to go to Zanzibar again we would choose the Resort again, although the rooms were a bit beaten up, but the resort definitely offers the absolutely best, widest beach along Paje and the service, the cocktails and the food were amazing.
Lana Förtsch planed a perfect trip for us and she was always availbale when we had a question or needed help.
Thanks for a perfect trip!

competent, very good organization, very nice and reliable
Safari was new territory for us, so no experience or expectations.
Best organization of the processes, our guide Oliver Josehphat was the best thing that could have happened to us. Absolute world class, we'll be back, a major reason is Oliver and all around.
The whole thing is certainly also very dependent on which guide you get.

Organisateur à votre écoute, professionnel, réactif.
Here we are back home, we had a magical stay in Tanzania, which perfectly met our expectations.
First of all, thank you for being able to give us Oredi, who turned out to be an exceptional guide full of skills and human qualities.
We were very lucky when visiting the parks having seen the big five and being present during the wildebeest migrations.
The accommodations on the tour are all top notch with a more than warm welcome and great care for tourists.
The catering is also of high quality.
Continue Mathilde the organization of your safaris in this way. I recommend you because you are at the top.
Best regards

Professional organisation, great safari experience!
We had an unforgettable safari experience with Tanzania Specialist. From the first Email contact until the very last day of our safari everything was very well organised and we always felt cared for very well. Our tour guide Rwehumbiza was great, he made sure we saw all the animals we wanted to see and knew the parks very well. He is a great driver and speaks German very well.
All the lodges and camps were very nice and many were exceptional. We particularly loved the tented lodges in Tarangire and Serengeti.
Overall, the value for money is very good, the organisation is thorough uncomplicated, and the staff is very reliable.
