As a family holiday we will never forget.
Definitely a family holiday we will never forget. It was a bit stressful with all the testing but luckily all went well. When we arrived Sele was waiting for us at the airport and from that moment we could relax. We had a wonderful safari. Our kids are 8 and 11 years old and it was their first time in Africa. They were amazed by all the animals we saw. So many elephants, giraffes and zebras. We even saw a few lions with their cubs. At the end of the day the kids loved to take a swim at the lodges. The service was really good and each night the lodge was different. The 6 days were to short! Thank you Sunset Team for the amazing experience.

Fantastic experience
We did a 5 day camping safari and it was really fantastic. We loved our guide Ben, he showed us the best places to spot the animals. Sleeping in the parks was so adventurous. I thought it would be a bit scary bus i loved it. Highly recommended!

Very helpful touroperator!
We made a wonderful safari with Sunset Adventure Safaris. Their response was quick and all our questions were answered, and we had many questions because this was our first safari. Eventually we chose for a camping/lodge safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. We loved Migombani campsite near Lake Manyara! We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro with guide Patrick. He has eagle eyes, we saw so many animals because of him! He also knows a lot, he is a driving encyclopedia! We definitely want to come back for another safari! Thank you very much Sunset Adventure Safaris!

We’ll be back!
We look back at an amazing safari. We had to shorten our trip because our flights had changed but nevertheless we had a great trip. Our guide Omari was very kind and he knew so much about the parks and animals. Our cook Isack was a master chef. His food was amazing and so much better than in the hotels. We enjoyed every day to the limit and we’ll make sure to come back in the near future to explore more of this beautiful country and friendly people.

Best value and great service but please check your transfers to avoid mistakes
We went on a private tour (2pax) with Sunset Africa in early Aug 2016. We used the 12-day package as a base and customized it.
We had a good experience liaising with the company. Godfrey the manager is very prompt in replying to emails. He also was upfront about the increase in cost due to the government's increase in taxes, and his increase was reasonable because he didn't apply the 18% on the entire cost of the package, which some other companies did.
For the safari part of the itinerary, we stayed in a mix of small hotels (in the city), lodges and tented camps (fully equipped with sink, toilet bowl and shower). All the meals that were stated in the itinerary were provided and all the pickups went smoothly, with the drivers waiting for us upon arrival. We did not have any dispute with the company at any point regarding what was included and what was not.
Our guide during the safari, Benedicto (Ben) was great. He really went out of his way to make sure that we spotted the big 5 (especially the rhino which was not easy to spot), and he never tried to slack off and end the game drives early even though he was clearly tired from a long day of driving. He is also a great conversationalist and very well informed! The vehicle used is a land cruiser with a roof that can be opened.
The experience in Zanzibar was also good, though I would suggest that unless you really like beach activities, you might not need to stay for that long at the beach hotel. We also arranged a spice tour and island tour on our own with a local company without problems.
The only word of caution I have is that you need to check your travel tickets and dates very carefully because we had some mistakes with ours. We got Sunset Africa to book our domestic flights as well as ferry tickets for us, and they booked the wrong date for one of the flights. Fortunately we spotted the mistake before we left for Tanzania so they could change it. Another slight hiccup was that when we got to Zanzibar, we found that the guide there did not know he was supposed to book the ferry tickets for us, so it was lucky that we happened to check with him so he could follow up on the necessary in time.
Overall, it has been a very good experience travelling with Sunset Africa. Their strength clearly lies in the wonderful safari guides they have and in organising the safari parts of the itinerary. They are also the best value for money that I have found. I would recommend Sunset Africa for mid-range luxury at reasonable prices.

Safari Trip
It is with immense pleasure I let you know that we have enjoyed the trip to the fullest and had a very good time marveling the beauty of Ngorongoro and Tarangere parks and its wild life abundance.
Special thanks to Amani, our guide and Mr. Godfrey who took care of the whole arrangement and had the goodwill to meet us in person and made sure we were happy.

Absolutely phenomenal!
I don’t even know where to start!
Every single part of our contact with Sunset has been amazing.
Nothing was too much trouble for Emma and Anna (despite my many questions!) and our safari was perfectly designed to meet our needs. We had told the team it was our honeymoon and we got such lovely treatment (and room decor!) at each lodge/camp because of this.
Our tour guide Rama was WONDERFUL. He was so much fun to be around, kind, caring and SO knowledgeable. He was able to spot things from miles away and I swear he has super powers! He made my dreams come true finding not 1 but 2 leopards in the Serengeti! He really is an asset to Sunset. Asante sana Rama!
Each day was as memorable as the last and each location so different.
We can’t wait to book our next adventure with the sunset team. And wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to all our friends & family.
Asante sana
This is baadaye not kwaheri!!

Great wildlife experience in Tansania
We booked a 6 day Safari including Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu and Ngorngoro. Our guide Sele was great company and more than fulfilled our expectations of the Safari.
Everything was perfectly organised and we were able to see the great migration in Ndutu, and the abundant wildlife in the Serengeti and Ngoro-Ngoro with lions, cheetahs, buffaloes, giraffes, hippos, rhinos. Definitely highly recommended.
