Mohammed was super responsive and even picked me up and dropped me off from the airport.
5/5

I took the five-day safari and it was amazing. I got to see so many magnificent animals (Elephants, Zebras, Lions, Cheetahs, Hippos, Giraffe, etc). Seeing the animals in their natural habit is something everyone should do at least once. They arranged for Lucas to show me around Arusha and thought me some basic Swahili, which was really useful for the trip. The Swahili langue is really fun with words like Mambo and Jambo meaning hello. I highly recommend this safari.

Safari incroyable
5/5

Notre séjour en Tanzanie d’est merveilleusement bien passé grâce à Telly Africa, Mohamed est venu nous chercher et nous déposer à l’aéroport, nous a mis en contact avec un super guide pour la visite de arusha où nous avons découvert les superbes marchés massaii mais aussi la visite d’une école de langues avec laquelle on a pu échanger avce les élèves. Le safari s’est super bien déroulé le guide a fait son maximum afin que nous puissions voir tous les animaux et la chambre était simple mais suffisant pour une nuit courte pour un départ matinale. Les repas proposés étaient corrects pendant le safari et le soir un repas préparé par un chef. En bref je vous conseille fortement ce safari. :-)

We saw everything and everyone!
5/5

My husband and I had a three day tour to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Mohamed was our manager and from the first message he were in touch and fast answered all of my many questions. We were met at the airport, provided with free accommodation in the center of Arusha, the hotel had breakfast and our safari started early in the morning. The guide Lucas was attentive, sociable and answered all questions about animals, finding instantly in his books. Our safari was amazing! We saw the Big Five, 21 lions, dozens hippos, hundreds of zebras, thousands of antelopes and everyone, everything:) Our chef deserves a special word, he was wonderful and spoke with love about what he had prepared for us! He was the only one who toasted bread for us while the other chefs brought unroasted bread to their groups. It's a small thing, but nice:)

Of the minuses: it was my own fault that I left hand bag with wallet in the camp during meals, but money was stolen from me, it's not to mutch - about $30 in shillings, but it was all money that was in my wallet! Coins, card and airpods the thief didn't touch. I guess I was in a hurry. Be careful with money, please!

Also, in the first camp, we didn't have a pillows, I didn't know before how important a pillow for sleeping! When you will book your tour, check with the manager to have a pillow:)

I recommend Telly Africa Safaris! It was an amazing experience that has never been before!

Amazing
5/5

We went on a safari for 2 days: the first day is Tarangiri Park, the second is Ngorongoro. The organization was at the level, the tour provided for another zero day. In addition to the fact that we were picked up from the airport, they also conducted an excursion around Arusha, told in sufficient detail about everything that interested us. Overnight stay at Arusha tourist inn. Breakfast is also there. We traveled a lot in both parks and saw all, well, almost all animals. The driver talked to each other, telling where and who to see. Lunches were in lunch boxes. The first day there was a lot of meat (burger, chicken, some kind of triangle with meat). In the second, a sandwich with mayonnaise and carrots is not equivalent). General biscuits, muffins, juice, banana. Everything is organized in such a way that it is impossible to get lost, but at the same time there is no feeling that you are being controlled all the time, there is also free time and take pictures, and you can stop wherever you want. These two parks are completely different, they undoubtedly complement each other very well, but they certainly do not replace. I will safely recommend the travel africa safari agency, because everything is reliable, the food is delicious, and they organize a stop in hotels that are good for their level (the only problem was with hot water everywhere, but this is clearly not about the tour itself)

World-class service, once-in-a-lifetime experience and memories for a lifetime….
5/5

Myself and 2 friends have just returned from one of the most amazing trips we have ever had. From start to finish, everything was professional, whilst also warm and friendly. Our driver, Joseph, was absolutely fantastic - so kind, approachable and extremely knowledgeable about every single species of animal on safari. He was a lot of fun, and very patient whilst we searched for the Big Five! We were lucky enough to see them all! The quality and quantity of the food was incredible thanks to the amazing chef Gody! We never went hungry and we were excited for every meal as the food was so delicious. I would recommend this trip to absolutely anyone - I simply couldn’t fault it! Thank you!

Great opportunity to explore northern Tanzania’s national parks!
5/5

This is an amazing opportunity to get a look at northern Tanzania’s national parks. From the beginning, everything was very well organized. Mo (probably your first contact for this trip as well) was very clear about what the plans were and very open about what was included in the price and what wasn’t.

The trip itself was really great, we saw a lot of animals from out jeep thanks to our driver Joseph. He is great at spotting rare animals (e.g. rhinos) and can tell you a lot about any animal you see. Next to that, he is a great guy and a safe driver.

Also the cook, Godfrey, makes great meals 3 times a day (also very nice vegetarian options). They do not supply snacks, but believe me, you wont need them. The meals were all very tasty in there was plenty of it. If you think you might get hungry between the 3 meals, just grab some extra from the meals and pack it up.

Accommodations were good, nothing fancy, but definitely better than I was expecting for this price.

Only thing I might have skipped was the visit to the Masai village. You do get a great look into their culture and how the Masai live. However, it felt very commercial to me, so I would not do a visit like that again.

All in all, great safari. We saw the big 5, the great migration of the wildebeest and many, many other animals, we were with great people in the jeep and had an amazing time. Would definitely recommend!
