More than i thought it would be.
The safari was great.We saw tons of animals, including a lion eating a zebra, lots of giraffes and a family of elephants that crossed the road right behind us.The accommodations were better than we expected and the staff was all very nice and helpful. All in all, it was a great experience for a really good price.

3 Day Short Exciting Tanzania Safari
Thanks to the team at Connect African Safaris, we loved this budget safari. My boyfriend and I had travelled to Tanzania for Mount Kilimanjaro trekking and we wanted to connect the National parks in Northern circuit.. We were picked from our hotel in Arusha by Msago, a very charismatic guy with many stories to tell. We were very grateful to be part of this short adventure and we did not get bored at all. The place we enjoyed the most was at the Ngorongoro crater where the experience was just surreal – so many animals in one space. . We also loved seeing the lions, giraffes and hippos in all the three parks. Overall it was a great trip though a bit short. Thanks to Connect African safaris again for their care and excellent organization skills especially during the ongoing exchange of emails that helped plan our trip to your choices and liking.

Experienced, respectful to animals, knowledgeable, and resourceful!
We had an AMAZING time with Connect African Safaris! Everything from communications with Sheryl in creating our itinerary to the week itself with our guide, Boniface was smooth, easy, and beyond expectations. Sheryl was able to accommodate two couples with two different departure dates and made for great experiences and an extra special walking safari for the couple staying a bit longer. The safari itself was superb - all of our lodge stays were exceptional, extremely welcoming, clean and the food was excellent. Our tour guide, Boniface, was extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and helped us see so many animals in just a few days! We could not recommend Connect African Safaris enough.

Outstanding service and communication
We were to visit Dar on a Holland American cruise ship with an overnight stay. Our ship would not be able to let passengers off until around 11am. Other tour operators would only start a tour earlier, around 7 or 8 am. Connect Africa accommodated our schedule. We started with a group of 2 and ended up with a group of over 20 from the ship for a 2 day one night safari. The schedule and value was too good for people to pass up.
The drive to the park was longer than expected but we were happy to see the country side and the villages along the highway. The vehicles were comfortable and spacious. Some of the group had been on longer safaris in the past and even they were happy with this one.
The lodging was excellent, much better than expected. The included meals were good. Anyone going to Tanzania should check this company out and book with them.
Cheryl is one of the owner's and a joy to work with.

Amazing team
I am so glad that I booked with those guys! Everybody we had contact with was open minded, friendly and always in a good mood. The price was that cheap that I was worried at the beginning. Also all the 5 star recommendations made me skeptical - but now I know why! They have the beste price, the best guides and the best safari trucks! Our guide knew a lot of the behaviors of the animals so that we spotted a lot of lions. We always had good and enough food and drinks during the journey!

Amazing safari in Mikumi
We spent 2 days - 1 night in the Mikumi National Park. Planning the trip was very easy, due to Omah who’s very responsive and available. We had the chance to have 2 different guides, Abeil et Innocent. They are both passionate and will provide you all the informations you need to learn about wildlife. Many thanks to them. We spotted many animals because both of our guides are communicating with their friends to make sure you’ll see everything is needed. Mikumi is a small park that gives you many more opportunities to see animals, even lions. Highly recommand !

Amazing!!!!
Highly highly recommend!
Omah made the process of booking our one night safari from Dar es Salaam to Mikumi easy and stress free, accommodating our budget and requirements. Very good communication prior to departure.
Omari, our guide, was absolutely brilliant. He had amazing English and knowledge of the animals, birds, plants and culture. He spotted many animals we would never have seen with our own eyes and was super kind and friendly, making our experience absolutely amazing. He made sure we saw everything possible! Once in a lifetime experience!
Food was also very good!
Don’t hesitate to book with connect safaris, they will look after you very well :))

A great experience at a great price
We were picked up in Dar es Salaam right on time, and as scary as Tanzanian drivers can be I never felt concerned because Francis was a very safe driver. When we got to the park, I was amazed at his observational skills. He saw every animal in the park! I was very impressed with his ability to find wildlife and position us for great viewing and photography. He is an expert driver, finding very smooth routes over very rough patches of road. The accommodations were basic but comfortable, the vehicle was very comfortable, and having a roof that could be raised to get a great view in the park but lowered on highways made for a very comfortable trip.
Coming from the United States, being accustomed to paying for everything with a credit card, it was a little uncomfortable handing over a large amount of cash to someone I had never met, but Omar is completely trustworthy, very friendly, and genuinely cared about the customer experience. I still am very impressed with the whole experience.
When I return to Tanzania, I will book another safari with Connect.

Incredible time during safari in Tarangire Park & Ngorongoro
Just had an incredible experience with Connect African Safari.
My guide Frank showed up on time to pick me up early at the hotel. Frank is polite, patient, and knowledgeable about the area and animals. I saw thousands of animals and had all my questions answered by Frank. They accommodated my meals (vegan) and my overnight stay, always providing assistance when needed.
My husband fell ill before the Safari and we couldn’t go together but hopefully we can go in the near future and without hesitation I would use this company again. My husband and I recommend them 100%. Tanzânia is also a beautiful country!
