Joel the perfect guide !
Magnificent safari carried out with Joel at the beginning of July 2021. Tarangire and Serengeti parks as well as the conservation area and the Ngorongoro crater hold no secrets for him. He has a perfect command of the local flora and fauna and, which is a superb asset, speaks perfect French and is extremely friendly. We immediately felt confident with him, from our arrival at Kilimanjaro airport until our last day punctuated by the visit of downtown Arusha. Impeccable organization, completely privatized safari for the couple or the family at more than reasonable prices. Also thought of our cook Boni who is an integral part of the expedition and who prepares magnificent dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner, all in a good mood. We will do again and recommend without hesitation a safari with Joel!

Excellent ! Perfect team !
Exceptional stay! Do not hesitate !
Chalema is a small, human-sized agency that made our safari unforgettable! They are used to bringing French people so know our expectations.
Joel (agency manager) is very responsive and gives good advice, which greatly facilitated the organization of the stay.
Praygod is an incredible guide who knew how to adapt perfectly to what we were looking for: to take us to quiet places. We were able to spend unforgettable moments alone with the animals.
Éric accompanied us for the cooking. there too we particularly appreciated his kindness and his culinary talent.
Nice team we recommend 100% !!

Amazing safari in TANZANIA
Excellent safari experience with Joël and his team.
Safari made in the summer of 2022.
Everything was perfect from the contact via Whatsapp, to our arrival in Kilimanjaro, to the safari with our excellent guide Georges.
Joël and our guide speak French fluently and are very attentive to our wishes.
Safari vehicle in very good condition, accommodation and meals at the top!
We had a wonderful family experience.
The parks of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro are incredible and each have their own particularity.
Georges allowed us to see the Big Five and did not hesitate to travel many kilometers to allow us to see the rhinoceros.
Lunches are not lunch boxes but delicious cooked dishes.
Thank you for giving us such a beautiful experience.
Good luck

Wonderful experience!
Hello
We did the safari with Joël's team a few days ago and highly recommend it !!
Joël warmly greeted us at the airport and explained the course of our stay very well.
Our very friendly, discreet and perfectly French speaking guide Faraji gave us a wonderful stay!
The small local dishes tasted during picnics and prepared by the employees of the different lodges are delicious. Far from the sandwiches we might expect.
You can entrust your stay to Joël with your eyes closed, you won't be disappointed.
Have a nice stay!

Very serious agency
We went to Tanzania in February to climb Kilimanjaro and enjoy safaris. Chalema perfectly organized our trip. The french speaking guides were nice and attentive, the travel conditions were very good, the food was very good too and the hotels in which we slept were comfortable.
Moreover, Joël, the agency’s director, was very flexible and did everything to allow us to spend a very good time.

Perfect! Definitely coming back
Best destination ever! go for it !
My fiancé and I have visited Tanzania in August. We have been recommended Shalema agency by a friend from our country.
We had a 6 days safari all included with Aruna, our guide and companion during the trip. We have visited the northern part of Tanzania, slept in tents and drove many km to see the big 5. We were so lucky to have Aruna as our guide, as he was patient, welcoming and always ready to go above and beyond for us to get to see our favorite animals which were sometimes hidden far in the savanah.
We felt safe and taken care of along the trip. The agency shared some important information about the clothing to wear, the budget for tips and many other facts about the country. The overall price was absolutely worth it.
A memory for a lifetime.
