Amazing experience
My friends and I did a trek of Kilimanjaro and a 7 day safari with Hazina Afrika. We had a wonderful experience. Rama was great at responding and organizing everything for us and our guides and porters were fantastic. Highly recommended.

Thoroughly Fabulous Safari
In September my parents and I went on a truly fantastic 5 day safari organised by Hazina Afrika. Company Director Rama is extremely knowledgeable and was thoughtful and conscious of our needs from the start, putting together a bespoke itinerary which put us in the best possible position to see what we wanted, and with quality, reasonably priced accommodation as well as our own vehicle and driver. I mentioned early on that I particularly wanted to see the great wildebeest migration, specifically a river crossing, but only had a limited amount of time, and the itinerary he put together suited perfectly, flying us from Arusha to northern Serengeti, then driving us down to central Serengeti, into Ngorongoro Conservation Area and on to Lake Manyara National Park. Rama prepared us well for the trip, sending through vital information about what to bring, wear, etc - we found his guide to giving appropriate tips to be particularly helpful given Australia's general lack of tipping culture!
Our amazing guide Jimmy met us off the plane and proved to be both experienced and extremely knowledgeable, with a keen eye for spotting wildlife - sometimes at ridiculous distances - and a knack for anticipating their movement and getting us as near as possible. We were very fortunate to see two river crossings in one day, as well as an impressive assortment of animals, often very close and always with a fascinating array of information. Hazina can also book additional activities such as museum stops, balloon rides and cultural tours - they arranged for us to visit a Maasai Boma on our way into the Ngorongoro crater and learned a great deal from the experience.
The entire trip could not have been better organised or executed. It was my parents' first visit to the region and neither have stopped raving about it almost a full month later. We truly had the adventure of a lifetime and would recommend Hazina Afrika in a heartbeat to anyone wanting to explore northern Tanzania's breathtaking wildlife and natural heritage.

AMAZING Safari!
Our family of 5 (3 kids aged 13, 11, and 9) recently returned from a safari arranged by Rama and his team at Hazina. We could not have been more delighted with our trip. Hazina takes care of every detail, from airport transfers, to lodge accomodations and beyond. Our safari guide, Praise, was wonderful! With his knowledge we were able to see all of the animals on our wish list, and so many more! One of our daughters wanted to see lions - we were able to see so many lions we lost count - including a huge pride with 10 cubs that walked directly in front of our safari vehicle.
We spent our time on the Serengeti in absolute awe, observing herds of Wildebeest, Buffalo, Giraffes, Elephants, Baboons, Lions, Cheetah, Leopards, Hyena, Hippos and we were even able to see the elusive Black Rhino in Ngorongoro Crater. Our safari was the trip of a lifetime and we are so grateful to Rama and Hazina Afrika for helping us make it happen. Hazina truly offers a personalized safari experience, and Rama put together an absolutely perfect 10 day, multi-park itinerary for our family.
PERFECT, every detail !
Our family adventure, climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro ... I cannot thank Hazina Afrika’s team enough. Every aspect of our trip was a fabulous experience and it was because Rama Maulid took the time to ensure our expectations were met. From the trip planning to the greeting at the airport, the pre-climb and post-climb accommodations, the personal selection of our trekking guides and the team!, to the ranger guided national park walk about. Their first class quality of service, their experience and knowledge, their attention to detail regarding our personalized itinerary that made this our trip. Everything was perfect!
We knew it would be as we had previously used Hazina Afrika for our safari adventure a few years ago. We didn’t give it a second thought when we contacted Rama again! If you are thinking of Tanzania, you must contact Hazina Afrika!

Exceeded Expectations
Hazina Afrika is a real safari coordinator, there is nothing mass market or manufactured about this service or the safaris. Rama has an ability to grasp your individual experience expectations and incorporates this with his knowledge, experience and expertise to create your customized journey. Hazina Africa captures what I think is the true spirit of Tanzania and delivers a safari that is unique to your requests, from the beginning.
Rama is knowledgeable and has many years experience in all aspects of the safari business, he is quick to answer queries from the first enquiry to the last and is very helpful if arrangements change before or during your trip.
Hazina Afrika hand picks your guide to ensure they have an intricate knowledge and experience of the areas you are visiting, the terrains & animals but more importantly, Rama picks the guides to suit you.
I was chasing a migration crossing experience on my safari and while mother nature and luck were on my side I also had a fabulous guide who had worked in the Serengeti for many years and knew all the tracks and places to go, he quickly worked out what I was looking for and customized the journey. The tented camps in Serengeti were beautiful, well run and chosen close to your activities, I loved the tented camps chosen for my safari. The lodge in Ngorongoro was a perfect choice, I am not a lodge person but after many days on safari and given the cold in the crater the lodge again was a perfect choice by Rama.
I highly recommend Hazina Afrika to anyone that wants a more unique safari in Tanzania, with attention to detail, a high quality of service and a wealth of knowledge, not be just another guest in a mass market company.

A top 5 life experience where the Hazina team has thought of every detail to make you feel at home!
The communication & service when we met with Hazina Afrika was on point and prompt! Rama answered every one of our questions and made us feel comfortable! Upon arrival and throughout the trip everything was top notch. The game drives, our guide, and the hospitality were world class! We will definitely be booking with Hazina Afrika again in the future and would hands down recommend them to anyone!

The trip of a lifetime
When my sister and I decided to make our African dream a reality, we emailed a handful of safari operators. Although Hazina Afrika was one of the more expensive quotes we decided to go with them. We communicated directly with Lisa who was always prompt in replying. She seemed to know exactly what we wanted from the very beginning. Everything was handled for us. Nothing was left out. Our quote was accurate and all inclusive. Even when there was a glitch during the trip, Hazina made sure that the trip continued seamlessly.
Our guide, Msami, was great. He was very good at spotting from afar and knowing the behaviors of the animals. The wonderful pictures I took home were because of him.
I would highly recommend Hazina Africa for your "trip of a lifetime"!

Ngorongoro Crater and Arusha National Park
My colleagues and I were scheduled to be in Arusha for a business meeting this past August so we arranged for a one day/one night safari to Ngorongoro Crater using Hazina Afrika the weekend prior to our work week. Hazina Afrika was referred to us by a friend and we were really happy that we decided to use this outfitter. Our experience with Lisa in coordinating the excursion was outstanding. She provided lots of details and all of her email responses were very prompt. The safari itself was also awesome and we couldn't have asked for a better outing! Peter was our guide and we found him to be friendly and very experienced – he knew his way around the crater! Several of us are avid birders and Peter was able to identify most birds at first glance. Peter was also very prompt in picking us up in the morning and was accommodating to our wishes to stop at Shanga on the way home to have lunch and shop. We also really liked the overnight lodge - Endoro Lodge. It was a lovely quaint and quiet lodge tucked away in lush vegetation. The service was excellent, the rooms stunning and the food very delicious. We had such an enjoyable time on our Ngorongoro Crater safari using Hazina Afrika that we decided to squeeze in a last minute safari to Arusha National Park on our way back to airport. We requested that Peter be our guide again and we were thrilled that he was available. We had a blast at Arusha National Park which had a surprising amount of animals – we even saw elephants! We would definitely recommend Hazina Afrika to anyone.

Fantastic safari experience
The safari experience me and My wife had with Hazina Afrika was fantastic from the beginning to the end. The lodges that we stayed in was way over our expactitions in accomendation, service and food. The guide had big knowledge and was service minded, and made shore we saw all animals we wanted to see.
