Professional knowledgeable tour company who made our safari experience AMAZING!!!!
5/5

We scheduled our safari experience 1 year in advance of our travel date. This company kept in touch with us and made sure we were aware of all the things we needed for a great safari so that we could pack accordingly. When we arrived at the airport we were greeted by our driver and the safari adventure began. Our tour was educational, informative and we were very fortunate as our driver is a member of the Masai tribe, and shared additional cultural information. We were able to witness the big 5. In one word - I would describe this vacation as Amazing - a lifetime experience - one you will remember like no other.

A well- prepared and arranged Tour group
5/5

This safari tour guide had a group of well- prepared and dedicated teams to arrange our tour, itinerary program and explore Africa as a country and Continent as whole! We had some extreme weather during our safari tours e.g, rainy days and muddy area that are in difficult situation and tough conditions for the Safari jeeps to explore the national park around but the team in safari tours africa managed to go through the tough conditions and stages to get us to keep exploring our Safaris. We did not get to see many e.g, wildebeest migrations nor the big Five but we still get to see some. It was a Great memorable experiences.

Enjoyed every minute
5/5

Salimu from safari tours africa arranged our safari. We worked a best route and accomodation for our stay and he made a good deal for us. The stay in serengeti was very enjoyable as you are staying literally with the wild life. The serengeti rest house was clean, large enough, comfatable bed, good dinner and breakfast.
We went to ngorongoro afterwards and amazing greenery, wild life, great experience. We stayed at marera lodge and this is a heaven on earth. Very nice grounds. Elegant large room and excellent service.
Last day was lake manyara, we came very close with elephant, giraffe, zebra, baboon, bushback …..
Our driver guide khalid was excellent, informative, supportive and friendly.
There was internet on the vehicle but reception was not good.
There were water, juice and tisue paper available at the vehicle.
The vehicle was in good condition, no problems.
The tour gave us masai cloth as a present
Overall very good experience

Reliable tour operator for a safari trip
5/5

What we booked: 10-day shared safari trip with mid-range accommodation (we were two people)
Communication: Salimu was my main point of contact from the start, he provided detailed itinerary and details on all accomodations. We have not seen him after the first day, but he was accessible via Whatsapp and responded very quickly to any questions. Friendly, good English, straightforward communication, he even gifted us a cake for our honeymoon! On the downside, I had to chase him daily to get the time to start and other details for the next day, and he told us a wrong time of pick up for the first day (6.30am instead of 8.30am) meaning that we didn't get enough of much needed rest after a long flight. Other people were guides and drivers, mostly outsourced because it was a 'shared' trip, some better than the others but ok on average.
Service: A couple of times we started safari rather late in the morning (11am), giving us lower chance to see animals, and it was mainly because of bad organization around provisions of water, lunch food and other supplies. Also the driver/guide for the main parks was not much talkative so 'guiding' part of his job was definitely weak. Otherwise the service was as expected.
Tour itself: we happened to visit Serengeti right after a storm and experienced a fair amount of rain in general. Spotting animals in lush green and after rain is harder and we ended up not seeing lepards and a rhino only far away, which is unfortunate, but somewhat expected with the season. We saw a cheetah, plenty of lions, elephants and other animals which was nice. The large parks are touristy even during the wet season, so expect multiple jeeps lined up to observe one anamal - you get a feeling of a zoo, only that the cages are not there. We had the last few days of 'cultural' safari where we visited different tribes to observe their way of life - this was my favorite part! It felt way less touristy and rather authentic, we also had a couple of good guides for those days who were knowledgeable and with the bachground from those tribes, so we could learn a lot.

Best safari package in a short notice!
5/5

Salimu was extremely responsive with all the communication and thoughrally answered all our questions regarding the safari. He organized all the necessary transfers and flights from Zanzibar to the Safari tour and back. Plus a very warm welcome during the arrival day.

Our Safari driver Frank was very skilled and had a knack of finding all the rare game for us with the best views. We enjoyed our 4-day game drive in Terengire National Park, Ngorongoro conservation area, Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater National Park. We saw a lot of elephants, giraffes, lions, ostriches, zebras, buffalos, gasells, wildebeests, hyenas, hippos and many more. We were also able to spot several Rhinos, few cheetahs and even 2 leopards!

We believe we had the best accomodation available with the short notice around the new years eve - there was one downgrade to regular tent due to unavailability but the facilities at the Simba A campsite in Ngorongoro were in very good condition with hot showers. Just make sure you are a camper type of a person and take warm clothes with you.
We thoughrally enjoyed our stay in Moyo Luxury Camp in Serengeti - wish we could have stayed there even longer.
The food by our cooks was average but fulfilling.

Overall we were very happy with our Safari and give strong recommendations for the operator.
