Amazing experience
5/5

Our safari with Tanzania Specialist and guide Good Luck was simply amazing! From Good Luck's incredible expertise to the well-planned itinerary, it was a journey we'll never forget. We had lovely accommodations!
I also want to recommend the bike tour option during the safari. It offers a fantastic opportunity to explore the local culture and visit rice and banana plantations.

Great safari
5/5

We were really happy with Tanzania Specialist! From the beginning we had easy communication with them and they arranged our safari in detail. We had a very warm welcome and great, skilled guide Laurence. He was knowledgeable and really flexible with all our requests. For accommodation we choose mix of hotels, lodges and tented camp and all of it was amazing! Would definitely recommend!

The review below is the personal opinion of Sam and not that of SafariBookings.
Overall fair satisfaction
3/5

We were not advised to avoid online visa application..that was costly!!
Few misguided information as to what expected to see at the safari games and the standard of the lodges! Some were excellent and some were very poor with no hot water to shower in the morning!
Our Guide was lazy overweight and more on his mobile than guiding us ...with the operator instruction to Tip him 10 usd daily ..not good !
Overcharged for luggage extra weights at domestic flight from Arusha to zanzibar..
However after all ..very good holiday with lovely Tanzanian people.

UNFORGETTABLE TRIP
5/5

It has been a perfect trip. My husband, my daughters (22 and 26 years old) and I have enjoyed it very much. The Tanzania specialist staff is very professional, the choice of lodges was very accurate, and the guide (Richard) answered all our questions. Previously, the entire deal with both Fernanda first and then Denisse was great because they resolved all my doubts about the trip. The perfect accommodation on the island of Zanzibar, an idyllic place. very recommended.

We had David, Daniel & Innocent as our guides. All so amazing. Cannot fault them.
5/5

We had the most amazing trip of our lives!
All of our 3 guides were so helpful, generous, kind and attentive to us over our 6 night trip. We felt safe & comfortable the whole trip. All our drivers were very reliable and all communication was top tier.

Could not recommend Tanzanian Specialist enough. Truely the best!

Excellent planning and choice of accomodations
5/5

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
4/5

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
5/5

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 !!
