6-Day Migration Wonder in Northern Serengeti
5/5

had the most amazing time with Mangai for my Tanzanian safari. From the get go, communication was great and Eric was able to facilitate anything I requested - from airport transfers to hot air balloon rides!
My safari was with Emmanuel who really looked after me and made me feel safe. He also managed to find every single animal I wanted to spot... including Leopards (even two playing together which I have no idea how he spotted), a Python and even a Rhino! I also got to see a small crossing at the Mara River.... I got the full experience
The lodges and tented camps were great, and I especially loved the tented camps where I could fall asleep to the sound of lions and hyenas! All the staff were super friendly and ready to make your stay as comfortable as possible with any request!
If you're thinking about doing a safari in Tanzania, bite the bullet. It's a holiday I'll never forget, especially the Central Serengeti and the great migration and hot air balloon ride in the North Serengeti.

Amazing experience
5/5

We booked a 6-Day Safari. The program is very good and balanced. Our Driver was Emanuel. He was always friendly and kind. He showed ous many animals and provided us with all the information we asked for. He always did his best to make this safari amazing. Eric always stayed in contact with us.
The accommodations were good. I personally loved the camp in the serengeti the most.
We saw many many animals, the highlights were a cheetah with cups, two leopards, lion cups an Hyenas eating.
Also the experience with the Hadzabe Tribe was amazing. We visited them, shoot with bow an arrow and danced with them. It was interesting to see the life of this tribe.
Everthing was amazing. We had an unique experience. We would always book the Safari with MsangaiAdventures again! Thank you so much!

Awesome Safari Experience!
5/5

We did a 6D 5N safari for 2 people and had an amazing time! James was our driver who did an excellent job spotting animals and providing facts about different animals, plants and locations. We went with the hopes of being able to see the great migration, and we were lucky enough to see a wildebeest crossing on both days at the river in the north Serengeti.

Well organised efficient operator who provide a fantastic safari experience.
5/5

We chose the 3 day tour which included 2 nights accommodation in the Serengeti at tented camps. The trip from start to finish was superb. Our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. The accommodation was luxurious and very comfortable. We saw more wildlife than expected and overall we would fully recommend this trip and company to others.

Just what I was looking for- excellent service, amazing wildlife!
5/5

Msangai adventures did a tour just as I wanted as there are not many companies that take you to the northern part of the Serengeti, that was not obscenely expensive, as well as visiting some of the other parks like the Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire and Manyara. I saw so many amazing animals, the best being the cheetahs with cubs, a lone leopard, a hyena and so many lions and elephants. Also amazingly we saw a very rare Caracal. Also amazing to see the long lines of wildebeest making their way towards the river, however we were a little early for a river crossing. Eric was great at handling all the logistics and keeping in touch with me throughout and James was an excellent tour guide, pointing out animals I wouldn't of otherwise spotted and letting me know what they were. The accommodation was superb, especially the tented camps in the Serengeti and the food was very good, I couldn't believe how much we were given for our packed lunches. I had an extra day in Arusha and wanted to visit the coffee plantation and waterfall so Eric sorted this out for me with James taking us again and this day trip surpassed all my expectations as well. An amazing safari from start to finish at a really reasonable price.

fantastic adventure safari with lots of animals and very nice personnel and lodging
5/5

We went on a 6 days safari with MSANGAI Adventure Safaris, and had a wonderful time, especially since the manager in Arusha, Eric, was always there for us even from distance, and our guide-driver Emmanuel provided lots of information on the animals, the Masai culture and everyhting about life inTanzania that interested us. He tried all the time to get us to see the more animals that he could find (he is very experienced), and in fact we were amazed at the amounts of them in that savannah, especially the lions, really very abundant and most animals with their offspring besides them (lovely). So, we saw practically all what there is to see, including the beginning of the Great Migration which was the main point of this safari for me, and that is why we chose this company which would take us to the northern Serengeti, where it takes place. The expectations were exactly as advertised, and they did everything agreed in advance and in addition tried to go over that, to make us more comfortable and see more... so, we consider this a very serious company and a good deal, I warmly recommend it to everyone.

Fantastic experience, everything went great!
5/5

I had an absolutely amazing time with my driver Emanuel. Finding the big 5 is always a lot about luck, especially the rhino and the Jaguar and we were able to find all 5 plus plenty of more, but having a great drive really helps bring the luck! I did a 6 day safari that included the great migration and river crossing, something that you have to see.

Personalized, value for money, expert tour operators with excellent facilities
5/5

All the way from initial discussions, exploration of options to the actual tour starting from airport pickup, lodges, food and safari.. this has been the experience of a lifetime. Eric helped answer wvery question and jumped on call and chat every times we asked while we were planning the trip.. no other operator we tried contwcting did this. Eric helped us plan a trip that met our budget and our safari needs. He helped with hotel booking, airport pickup, packing list, and ask other travel prep well beyond the scope of the tour.

The safari itself was phenomenal end to end. Every stay was 5 star. We are vegetarian and eric ensured that we get cold water and warm food to our taste. Emanuelle, who was our safari guide is an expert driver and an expert guide
He was our companion food the five days. He knows the parks deeply and was able to use his expertise to ensure that we get to see the big 5, mara river crossing as part of great migration and some of the very hard to spot animals including serval cat, cheetah and black back jackal. He customised thjngs as per our interest and ensured we have a great time. He is polite, ethical and hard working. Ensured there is no wastage of food, ensures we follow the park rules and yet have most fun.

I strongly recommemd Tanzania safari to everyone and go with Msangai Adventures.

Amazing, exceeded all expectations
5/5

In July, my girlfriend and I had an unforgettable trip. At first, I hesitated to book with Msangai as it is a relatively new company with limited reviews. But I am so glad I decided to book my Safari with them. We chose Msangai because our safari started on day one, and we had a two-day stay in Serengeti.

First and foremost, the communication, both via email and WhatsApp, was smooth and all our questions were promptly answered.

The accommodations where we stayed were all exceptionally beautiful, clean, and provided excellent service. The highlights were definitely Marera Valley Lodge with its swimming pool and Baobab Tent Camp, where we slept right in the heart of Serengeti.

The food at all accommodations was more than satisfactory. The buffet ensured there was something for everyone, and the packed lunches were great. Ample water was provided in the car.

However, what truly made our trip special was our driver/guide, James. He was always there for us, extremely knowledgeable, answering all our questions with patience and enthusiasm. No request was too much, and he allowed us to stay as long as we wanted at specific spots. James made sure we saw all the animals we desired, including the Big 5 and many more. Moreover, he drove very safely, and we never felt insecure during the journey. In conclusion, we couldn't have asked for a better driver/guide.

I want to end my review by thanking Msangai once again for everything they did for us. They made our trip unforgettable. That's why I genuinely recommend this organization to everyone. You'll undoubtedly get 100% value for your money.

Unforgettable experience
5/5

Everything was fantastic, much better than expected, starting with the impeccable assistance with the airport transfers by Eric, the organizer. Our plan was 6 days of safari visiting North and Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Taranguire. Our magnificent guide James, a great driver and brilliant person, explained all the curiosities to us, answered any type of doubt... His hospitality with clients is excellent as well as being a great animal watcher. He even took us to see the sunrise one day. The selected accommodations were perfect, incredible. We rate the safari 10/10 because it is not possible to put a higher score. Unbeatable quality price. Highly recommended, do not hesitate to choose this company.
