Charles Mpanda and Tanganyika Ancient Routes were fabulous from start to finish. During planning they listened to our ideas and desires and helped plan and coordinate a great trip. Charles and all the drivers were kind, patient, fun, and very knowledgeable. We had an awesome trip!

5/5

Our communication was handled through Travel Leaders-Journeys, however, everything that was communicated was accurate. Tanganyika Ancient Routes exceeded our expectations!!! Our guides, Jacob, Charlie and Charles were funny, kind, efficient and did everything possible to make our safari perfect! They were quick to make changes that would enhance our experience and never once lost site of the purpose of our journey and our comfort. Don't hesitate to use them for your Tanzania safari!!!!

5/5

This was an absolutely amazing experience. Our guide, Charles, is very knowledgeable, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. No matter what we had questions about (animals, plants, seasonal patterns, ANYTHING), he could answer them all! We saw all the animals that Serengeti and Ngorongoro have to offer. Our chef, Kom, was outstanding, and he catered to all of our needs in the most delicious and creative ways. I could not recommend Tanganyika Ancient Routes more highly!

Happiness in Tanganyika
5/5

Having as many people taking care of us and all of them very polite helpful and respectful was an outstanding experience.
It was very much appreciated.
Never been so close to so many wild elephants or seen so many animals in the natural habitat on the safari quite a site, just great

5/5

This is my second time back to Tanzania with Tanganyika Ancient Routes. I would highly recommend them if you are planning a trip there! This time I went with a large group, everything was set up for us and any personal accomodations were taken into account. The food was great! The drivers were safe and reliable! The safari guides were knowledgable and awesome as spotting animals! I had such a great experience with the Hadzabe tribe, on the safari and throughout the cities. If and when I go back to Tanzania I will definitely go with Tanganyika Ancient Routes!!!

Everything I imagined and more in Tanzania on safari, climbing Kilimanjaro, relaxing in Zanzabar.
5/5

It is difficult to put into words the awe, excitement, and beauty I experienced on this once in a lifetime trip. I traveled with a large and very diverse group, yet the arrangements from home back to home again were complete and tailored to the many and varied needs of the individuals in our group, not an easy task. We traveled into the bush meeting and sharing with the Hadzabe, climbed Mt Kilimanjaro, enjoyed and afternoon with the local women in the Mt Meru area, had a safari to Tarangire National Park, and recuperated for 3 days on the island of Zanzabar before returning home. Always our drivers and guides were skilled, knowledgeable and friendly and in very short order became our friends. On the Kili climb, I have never witnessed such a large group of the hardest working individuals ever. The women and men of our crew went the absolute extra mile to ensure our success and safety while scaling Kili. Sharing details of our lives with each other helped develop the friendships that blossomed and provided insights into our very different cultures. Our accommodations were varied from luxury hotels to the tents on the mountain. The food was excellent. I wish I could name everyone who helped make this the incredible experience it was. I highly recommend Charles and Tanganyika Ancient Routes for your first or next escape to beautiful Tanzania.
