well worth the money - saw tons of animals on 3 day safari!
Robert was super accommodating and very helpful in giving me all the relevant details for the trip.. he wanted to make sure everything ran smoothly and even went out of his way to meet me before and after the trip to make sure everything went accordingly. He was interested in how to improve.
The safari was well worth the money considering the costs involved in organising park access, food, accommodation and transportation. I did the 3 day safari to Ngorongoro, Tarangire and Lake Manyara and saw tons of beautiful scenery and animals! It was in January so everything was lush and green. I had a great stay at Panorama campsite at Lake Manyara and met lots of other solo travellers there too! Would definitely recommend Robert and his team!

Good prices, pleasant experience
We went for a day trip to tarangire park during our visit in Arusha. This company is fairly priced and we really appreciated the way Robert interacted with us.
He responded quickly and respectfully to our questions during the inquiry process, unlike some big names.
He was able to accommodate us very last minute and came pick us up the very next morning without any problem.
In the park, we were able to see lots of animals, elephant of course, zebras and even lions, which is a rare occurrence in tarangire park from what we were told back at our hotel.
Our guide communicate with other guides through the whole trip, ensuring we saw as much animals as possible. The lunch box provided was fine, nothing too fancy but does the job.
Overall we really enjoyed this short trip and recommend this company without hesitation.

Great Kilimanjaro experience
We had a day hiking trip to Marangu hut on Kilimanjaro and it was a great experience. Everything was good organised, the premeeting, the drive, the hike, the lunch and the aftermeeting. Saladini was a great guide. Thank you Robert and Saladini for this experience.

10/10 Experience
I booked two excursions with African Wanderlust (Materuni Falls and Ngorongoro crater) and both were amazing! As a solo female traveler I have to say that Robert and his team made me feel safe and comfortable the entire time. Robert was quick to respond to messages and was accommodating to all my requests. Him and his team were punctual, friendly, and provided a lot of information during the tours. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again!

Best Safari and Mount Meru experience.
Such a wonderful Safari and Mount Meru Trek with this company, under Robert's lead.
We had 10 friends who came to volunteer in our NGO in Arusha and stayed with us for 3 weeks. After the program only 6 people did safari and 3 days Meru Trek. The rest four friends had to fly back after the volunteering program.
After doing some research Robert came into our mind and we contacted him a week before and make an appointment to meet the clients at our location in Usa river. Everything was well arranged all the 7 people summited Mount Meru -the second tallest mountain in Tanzania after Mount Kilimanjaro. Followed by 4 Days camping safari to Serengeti, Ngororongoro crater and Tarangire.
Thanks to the humble and charming team and an amazing experience.

Tour was different from what I booked
I was looking for a tour sleeping in a ngorongoro campsite. and this was the only one, so i contacted and confirmed the accommodation. but the real tour, we stayed in a budget accommodation which was not where i really wanted. Moreover, other travellers we had tour together paid much less than we paid. I didn't need tour in tanzania cuz i did in kenya for several days. but i wanted to stay in the accommodation and that's why i chose to have one more tour but I wasted of time and money. What's more, I liked the guide but the car was too old that it broke down. and it took a long long time for us to drop off which was the worst time in tanzania.

An incredible operator that took care of all group's needs with true responabilty and devotament
I completely enjoyed my time climbing Kilimanjaro with the African Wanderlust Adventures, with Robert in lead of all process.
Daniel as our tour leader was always looking out for our unique needs and adapting our treks accordingly to suit the strengths of the group. His leadership was first class and indeed a very caring person.
Other Guides were absolutely amazing, they were always available when we needed them and encouraged us while safely pushing us to full potential all the way to the top of Kilimanjaro.
The food and service from the whole team was what you’d expect from a 5 star hotel and any extra requests of the group were catered for to the maximum.
After the trek Robert promised a short but amazing safari. I admit it was full of potential: 3 Days of safari that allowed us to see many wildlife animals and birds; not to mention the big five. Mesmerizing!
