Perfect organization and realization of a dream
I highly recommend Telly Africa Safari. We organized a day safari from Zanzibar via WhatsApp. Catherine guided us step by step, with precision, transparency, and detail. Furthermore, our Italian-speaking guide, Willy, was truly excellent during the safari and allowed us to spot all the animals. Five stars are truly too few, thank you for everything.

Fantastic tour operator and very accommodating
Catherine from Telly Africa Safaris was amazing from start to finish. She organised our one day safari to Selous National park from Zanzibar and made sure that’s everything we wanted was included. We had a great day in the game reserve where we seen 3 out of the big five (elephants, lions and buffalo). We also see zebras which unfortunately were very far in the distance so didn’t get to see them close up but we also see lion cubs which is apparently very rare to see in January, along with baboons, antelopes, giraffes and hippos. We stopped half way through for some lunch which was nice. I requested gluten free as I have coeliac but didn’t feel confident that the server understood what I wanted when I went up even though Catherine had organised this with them. I did take some chicken and rice and I was fine but it was a rather dry and plain but grateful I was able to get something to eat. I did bring some snacks with me also for emergency which I would recommend! Overall it was a great experience. Our transfer driver from our hotel to Zanzibar airport was also very good so shoutout to Augustino, lovely guy!

Fantastic experience in the wilderness.
Our safari was a fantastic experience: five days immersed in the wild nature of Tanzania.
The starting point and final destination of our trip was Zanzibar.
We were picked up at our hotel and taken to the airport, from where we flew to Serengeti National Park, where our guides, Brison and Machete, were waiting for us two young men who proved to be excellent guides and wonderful people.
With them we visited five parks: Serengeti, Ndutu, the Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five up close (except for the rhinoceros, which was always very far away), as well as many other animals, including the migration of wildebeest and zebras impressive for the sheer number of animals and the many calves involved. The landscapes were breathtaking: the endless vast plains of the Serengeti, the spectacular scenery of the Ngorongoro Crater, and the wild nature of the other parks, all of which leave a lasting impression because of their beauty.
Throughout the experience, the guides not only allowed us to see all of this but also explained the names and characteristics of the animals as we encountered them.
For the first two nights we stayed in lodges inside the parks, in close contact with nature, hearing the sounds and calls of animals moving during the night. The other two nights were spent in two other beautiful lodges outside the parks; in all of them we found excellent staff and good-quality food.
At the end of our wonderful tour, we were taken back to the airport in Arusha to return to Zanzibar, where we were escorted back to our hotel.
I could go on and on describing this amazing adventure, but I would never stop writing.
In summary, it was truly an unmissable experience for anyone who loves natureone that should be experienced at least once in a lifetime.
I would also like to thank Telly Africa Safari for the organization and for giving us the opportunity to live this wonderful adventure.
