Usambara Mountains
I stayed with Emmanuel at his property in the Western Usambara mountains for a few days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better host!
He gave me plenty of tips about the places of interest in the mountain range, hikes and shortcuts, along with information on transportation to the nearby areas.
I would definitely recommend Emmanuel for his kindness and knowledge of the area to anyone visiting the Usambara mountains!

Friendly and knowledgeable
I went on a guided hike with Emmanuel through Magamba Forest Reserve in the Western Usambara mountains , and had lovely time! He is very knowledgeable about the natural and historical values of the region, and was very friendly and relaxed. If you ever visit the Western Usambara mountains, make sure you go on a hike with him!

Informative
This was one of my most beautiful experiences in my lifetime so far and I can wholeheartedly recommend Emmanuel and his team. Everything was extremely professional, from the booking throughout the entire safari. I am quite sure this is the best value for money safari in all of Tanzania. If you are hesitant, just go for it!
From the point I was picked up at the airport, I felt incredibly welcome at Kizumba camp. John set up a beautiful bonfire at night, Rachel cooked the most delicious meals and I met many fellow travelers as we enjoyed the dinner together.
Our 4-day safari was just perfect, I still cannot believe how much we saw in such short amount of time. Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara. We saw so many animals so up close. Big thanks to the best driver Justice who always went the extra mile for us to see the animals from the best angle❤️ and our chef Ally who cooked delicious meals and always catered to us vegetarians. Camping underneath the African night sky was truly a once in a lifetime experience even though I had never camped before. I wouldn't want it any other way.
I was traveling with my husband and we had so much fun and made new friends in our lovely safari group.
Thank You so much guys for this unforgettable experience!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing
Spectacular activity well organized. Highly recommended!
Everything went as planned and described in this activity! Both transportation to and from (arriving at your exact time), visiting Prison Island (both the giant tortoises and a large part of an old slave prison), and ending with Nakupenda beach (where they offer a huge tray of fruit and a seafood platter), it was indeed great!
Thank you all for this experience, really highly recommended on your visit to Zanzibar!

3 day Sadaani boat trip
Emanuel from Visit Zanzibar was verry helpful to organizing my great boat trip to Sadaani. He established all contacts I needed and negotiated a good prise. Thank you so much! The trip was great! I saw there a lot of hippos and crocodiles :)

Safari is Exceptional in Tanzania
**Incredible experience that exceeded expectations*
*
With the huge range of tour operators and safaris available, I contacted 8 different operators. Emmanuel came back to me straight way with useful information, a budget price and a cheerful attitude.
This looked the best value for our purposes as we were travelling on a budget. It far exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff were friendly, the food was exceptional and included a delicious breakfast, packed lunch and 3-course dinner freshly cooked.
The atmosphere at the camp was friendly and relaxed and our living quarters, whilst basic, were comfortable. The boat safari was our first experience and we stopped to watch the sunset.
The 4x4 experience the next day was incredible as our guide ensured we saw every animal possible, sufficient time at each stop and provided lots of interesting information on the animals, birds and plants.
Early the next morning we had our walking safari led by a bushman with a big heart, a great sense of humour and lots knowledge.
Yes, the journey takes about 6 hours to Selous and Mikumi but it is such an incredible experience you quickly forget the drive!
I really recommend both the safari and the tour operator.

Perfect organisation, amazing safari !
We spent 3 days and two nights in the safari and everything was perfect ! Visit Zanzibar organised everything for us with a local company. We slept 2 nights in Kizumba Camps, the food was amazing and the place is so comfortable with all what you need as hot water, wifi and stuff. This company is very secure and flexible, they make exactly what you ask. I would totally recommend this agency!

Perfect safari
We highly recommend Visit Zanzibar company. Our trip was super last minute (we booked few days before flying to Tanzania) but Emmanuel was very responsive and adapted the program as per our requests.
Our guide, Jacob spoke fluent English and several other languages. He was very knowledgeable, he taught us not only about the animals but also about the history of the country, the politic, the culture. We learned a lot. He was always in a good mood, even when we were late in the morning (meaning, everyday).
The safaris was very well organized, everything went very smoothly, the hotels were all amazing and the food was good!
We loved our trip with Visit Zanzibar Company. It is one of the most beautiful trip we've done, if not the most beautiful one.
