Professional team from the beginning of the trip to the very end. From the start, they provided us with all the necessary information. Once on safari, thanks to their chef, we dined like we were at a restaurant for every meal, and thanks to the guide, every hour of the day was an adventure. We even had the chance to see the Big Five! I can really recommend.

Best safari company in the town!
We did 1 week tour with Makini Tanzania Expedition which was amazing and one of the best experiences that I've ever had! Staff is helpful and friendly, the facilities were complete and no shortage on anything! Driver (Joel) was one of the best, our chef ( Matayo) did his best and represented us everyday with delicious international and African cuisine!
Other agents in the company like Naomi and James are very professional at their duties and always reachable and ready for help. I recommend this company to my friends for sure.

Excellent tour
Very good safari. We saw everything we wanted and more. The food was very good and the driver was very helpful. He was really making his best to give us the best views on the animals and helped us also to buy some souvenirs.

Overwhelmed by how well the safari went and by how good value it was.
The safari was great, tents comfortable and tour guide far exceeded expectations.
I wanted to see predators and we saw all three major ones plenty of times (lion, cheetah and leopard) including two hunting. The guide (Godfrey) always made sure to take us somewhere new and was able to spot animals beyond the horizon somehow, like a sixth sense. Of course we saw elephants, hyenas, buffalo, wildebeest, vultures, hippos, crocs, ostriches, mongeese, zebras and loads of birds. We even saw a few rhinos from a distance.
The tents and food were all arranged without fuss, and we were never hungry, nor cold or uncomfortable besides driving the dirt roads on safari but even luxury safaris use those same roads and vehicles.
The vehicle was clean and suitable, no one ever was without a view of an animal and we changed orderly to make sure front seat was evenly used.
I was sceptical of the whole arrangement after my time elsewhere in Africa but the whole thing went off as well as expected or better. The price didn't change from the quote, everything they said was included was true and the office staff checked in daily in case anything needed extra help (it didn't).
I highly recommend Makini and will be recommending them to friends if they go to Tanzania. I don't know what other tours were like or the price they paid but I couldn't find anything cheaper for the inclusions and even as a dodgy budget backpacker was extremely happy with the whole experience.

Great 5-day Safari with Agustino
Good value for money Safari. We did 3 days Serengeti, 1 day Ngorongoro and 1 day Tarangire, which turned out to be the best route in our opinion. Our guide Agustino was amazing and had an answer to every question, sharing knowledge about his country enthusiastically.
Some last minute changes in the itinerary were a bit inconvenient, but all in all an amazing experience where we got to see the big 5 and many more animals (some really up close) than we could have imagined.

Great communication and very welcoming.
Makini Tanzania Expedition made our first safari experience unforgettable. The communication was great all throughout. They have gone above and beyond. They picked us up from the airport, drove us to our accomodation and also helped us get to an ATM. I highly recommend booking your Safari tour with them. We had David as our tour guide/driver, he was absolutely fantastic. So knowledgeable and caring. Really good at driving too. Richard the chef cooked delicious meals. Thanks again.

Amazing first safari experience.
From the booking process with Naomi to arriving in Arusha and meeting the team, the whole process was very smooth. David was a very knowledgeable and personable tour guide with great driving skills. Richard was our chef and his food was amazing and fed us very well through out the whole safari. Would definitely recommend to others and would use them again in the future.

Magical tour!
We had a brilliant three days with Makini going to Napuri waterfalls, Dulati lake, Ngorongoro crater and Tangarine National Park. Nancy, Jobar and the team made everything so easy and went above and beyond to make our trip special.
