Well organised and very kind team
5/5

We really enjoyed our 4-day safari.
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. We saw a wide variety of wildlife, including lions, elephants, giraffes, and zebras, and learned so much about the animals and the parks.
It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend a safari with Telly Africa Safaris to anyone visiting Tanzania.
Also Happy Mukas our organiser was really nice and helpful all the time.
Asante sana!

One in a lifetime safari
5/5

We had a wonderful experience with Telly Africa Safaris. We booked with them a 4 day safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire and we had a great time. Everything was carried out according to schedule and as we had agreed in advance. Special thanks to Happy Mukas, who organized our safari seamlessly and was always available for any changes and modifications we made during the preparation. Special thanks to our driver Tomsifu who knows where exactly to go, when we should wait for animal and thanks to whom we were able to see so many animals. In conclusion, we are very happy that we chose Telly Africa Safaris for our adventure in Tanzania and when we return we will hire them again.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Telly Africa Safaris
5/5

We have just returned from a 6-day, 5-night safari with Telly Africa Safaris, and we are truly grateful for an unforgettable experience. A big thank you to William for planning the trip and handling all the bookings so professionally, making the entire journey smooth and effortless from start to finish.

All the lodges were beautifully located and absolutely wonderful to stay at, each one adding something special to the experience. Our favourite lodges: Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge and Manyara’s Secret. This has truly been a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and we loved every single moment of it.

We could not have been more happy with our safari guide, Joel. His exceptional knowledge, flexibility, positivity, and calm confidence made the trip extraordinary. Joel went above and beyond every single day, always adapting to our wishes, sharing fascinating insights, and making us feel completely safe and cared for at all times. He is truly outstanding at what he does and played a huge part in making this safari so special for us.

We were traveling with children (age 9 and 11), and they were just as happy as we were with every part of the trip. Everything was perfectly adapted for a family safari.

We can truly and highly recommend Telly Africa Safaris. They are personal, attentive, and genuinely committed to giving you the best advice and support to make your dream safari come true.

A tour operator that delivers exceptional service, clear communication, and unforgettable experience
5/5

Highly recommended! Everything was organized at the highest level. The team was always in touch, answered all our questions promptly, and offered different options and alternatives. Especially Happy Mukas, who was 24/7 in touch, ready to answer all my questions. The drivers were punctual, picked us up directly from the hotel, and brought us back safely. Everyone was friendly, professional, and welcoming.

A very special thank you to our safari driver, Ramadhani — he was truly outstanding. Even though we were short on time towards the end of the safari, he still managed to find and show us lions. He was not only a highly skilled driver, but also an excellent guide and photographer.

The safari experience was absolutely unforgettable!

Telly Africa Safaris made our honeymoon unforgettable with excellent guides and service.
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience with Telly Africa Safaris, and it exceeded all our expectations. Communication was smooth and professional from the beginning.

Although we hesitated at first due to the lack of Korean reviews, there was absolutely nothing to worry about. Everything was very well organized.

Our guide, Godless, was excellent, knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate and helped us see a wide variety of wildlife.

When a lodge overbooking issue occurred, Telly handled it professionally and upgraded us to a more luxurious lodge, which we truly appreciated.

Special thanks to Catherine and Mohamed, whose kindness and support made the entire experience even smoother and more enjoyable.

This trip became an unforgettable honeymoon for us. I highly recommend Telly Africa Safaris, especially for Korean travelers. If I return to Tanzania, I would definitely choose them again.

Wonderful journey in the Tanzanian national parks
5/5

Telly was recommended by a colleague. I still compared with 1 or two other safari operators and chose Telly as it was interesting price wise. I am happy I did.
Telly is a very reliable tour operator. Great, swift and efficient communication all along the preparation, during and after the safari. I had total trust specially as I was booking and paying from Europe and traveling with my daughter for the first time in a safari.
I booked a 5-days luxury package. All the places we stayed were awesome. Telly chose wisely the locations.
Our guide, Justine, was friendly and professional. He did everything so that we could see the big 5.

5/5

We booked a one day safari and had the best experience, everything from booking to being picked up from the hotel to the safari itself was very well organised and smooth. Telly safari was the best priced in comparison to the others that I enquired with. Special thanks to Catherine who was on hand to answer all our questions and to Martin our guide who was very helpful and knowledgeable.

5/5

Incredible once-in-a-lifetime experience on safari, expertly organized! Everything was seamless from the moment we arrived in country to the moment we left, with great coordination and communication along the way. Our guide, Aron, had decades of experience and pointed out so many animals from far away that we would’ve missed otherwise. Would highly recommend!

Well organised, amazing experience. Fantastic value for money
5/5

We pre-booked our safari before our holiday to Zanzibar through Telly Africa safaris. The communication was really easy as it was all over WhatsApp and Catherine is very helpful.
The tour was incredible value for money as it included lunch, drinks and the flights to and from Zanzibar. Then lunch was delicious as well. The safari was just magical. From seeing giraffes and elephants almost immediately to the determination from our guide to ensure we saw everything, including Lions. Our guide Ramadan was exceptional. He always knew where to park and wait to get us the best view and his knowledge of the area was impressive.
The drivers who collected us and took us back to the hotel were also lovely.
Catherine also regularly follows up to make sure everything went ok.
