5/5

Visiting Safari park was incredible experience!
From the moment we entered we were filled with beauty of the nature and animals roaming freely. We could witnessed this thanks to our great guide Abel. Communication with Plex Africa Company was super, accommodation comfortable in the middle of the nature. Everything was well prepared, I heartily recommend to see Safari with this company.

The greatest adventure ever...
5/5

dear friends,

every since i was a little girl and read a book about Africa, it has been my dream to visit this fascinating continent, to discover and explore its people, and its wild and untamed nature.
when my girls became old enough to keep the precious memories we would make for their lifetime, we decided that now was the time to go and make dreams come true.
while researching, i received many offers. however one of them stood out: Mr Edward Makundi (i will call him Eddie from now) from Plex Africa not only shared an offer that was hard to resist, but he reached out to me personally. from the very beginning, i could feel his personal interest in our story, and his commitment to do everything he can to make every aspect of our dreams come true.
we felt so well taken care of. i had some special request, e.g. i wanted to experience different types of safari, and how it felt to sleep in a tent in midst of the wild. Eddie accommodated all our wishes.
ultimately, understanding that i was giving all i could - for my Baby girls - he went out of his way to make the realization of our dreams affordable even to me, as a single mom. i will be forever grateful to him.

what we experienced in Africa and what surprised and impressed us so much was how people connect with each other to make things happen, for us, whom they have never met before. people still live as and from the community, and we were immediately and so warmly welcomed to this community. we felt nothing but upendo... love all along.
so a friend of Eddies connected with a friend who connected with a friend who slept outside our resort on the first day of our safari trip, just to pick us up on time, at 5 a.m. and bring us to Zanzibar airport. i only realized that when one of the maasai guarding the resort got him out of the bushes.
from there, we were always taken care by lovely people who didn't know us. but we got to love them so much.
everything from the flight with a small chartered machine to the entire safari program was so well organized, smooth, and an adventure as only fairy tales could tell.

arrived in Nyerere National Park, we were welcomed by our lovely Lucy Ludamilla, whom we immediately adopted in our hearts, and who has since been my oldest Baby girl, and of course Ellie, the most gifted story teller of times.
we spent the most incredible day together, driving through the national park, listening to the stories of lion prides, zebras, giraffes and elephants, and crocodiles, as we encountered them in their natural habitat.
we reclined under an old tree and shared a hearty lunch prepared with love, by someone who didn't even know us, which we shared with the little birds and animals. sitting there, in the midst of the wild savanna, having been imparted the honor to be a guest in this vast kingdom of animals, surrounded by the sounds nature, gave us such an incredible feeling of peace, and made us aware what a gift it is to be alive, and to be able to share this moment, and tell this story.
on the following days, we went for a bush walk, then visited a local village, and in the evening, we went on a boat safari. we concluded the day dancing into the sunset.
the tented lodge we stayed welcomed us with immense love and fed us delicious food every time they saw us.
the tent itself was unlike anything i had ever experienced in my life. simple but luxurious, and the feeling of falling asleep in the midst of the bush and waking up in the bush was simply magic.

very impressive was our visit to the maasai boma on our last day. they included us in some of their day-to-day activities, like making fire, and dancing with them was another dream of mine come true.
my girl Lucy accompanied us all along the way, and not only took such good care of us, but also captured the countless incredible moments we lived. thanks to her, one of the drivers went looking for elephants for us on the second day, as the girls had so much wished to see them in their natural habitat. it was heartwarming to observe the elephants as they passed by us on the road, taking care of each other as a family.
when our safari was over after 3 days, and it was time for us to return to the beach in Zanzibar, the girls were so heavy hearted.
even greater was our joy when Eddie, who had organized our adventure from the time we were still at home in Vienna, made the long and tiresome trip to visit us in our resort in Zanzibar the following week.
we were so delighted to meet him in person, and excited to tell him how much we loved and appreciated all that he, Lucy, Ellie and his entire team and the tented lodge staff had done to make this Safari an unforgettable experience, exceeding all our dreams, hopes, and expectations.
even the day we left the island and had a layover in Dar Es Salaam, Lucy and Eddie waited several hours at the airport to welcome us and take us to our hotel for the night. with pride, my little daughter wore the Plex Africa T-Shirt Eddie had gifted her when he visited us in Zanzibar. nothing would make her happier than be part of this wonderful family.

seeing them once more was the last highlight of our amazing trip to this beautiful, vibrant, breathtaking continent called Africa.

to anyone dreaming of a true adventure in the wild - i can wholeheartedly advise: chose Plex Africa, and you will be in the best hands. they make sure to make all your dreams come true, and then some.

asanteni wapendwa wangu. kumbatio kubwa. hadi titakapotana tena. tunawapenda.

with all our love.

Fantastic team at Plex Africa! Big shout out to Ricardo who made our experience so enjoyable especially with my 2 year old son who loved him.
Ricardo had great knowledge and experience and tried his best to show us the animals we wanted to see. Food at lunch was really authentic and fresh.
Definitely recommend the 1 day trip if you have a small child

Reliable, knowledgeable, professional
5/5

Plex Africa Safaris is a very professional organization. Edward, the owner, is very reliable and can be reached at all hours of the day. I booked a few trips with him such as the Mikumi Safari and Mnemba snorkeling. His co-worker and driver - Morris - was always on time, very friendly and available for questions.

In addition, when an occurrence during the actual Safari happened with the local guide, Edward was immediately willing to investigate and take care of the matter.

I can highly recommend Africa Plex Safari due to the professionalism and client oriented approach this business has.

Unforgettable 2 day Mikumi safari organized by Plex and Abel
5/5

My girlfriend and I had an amazing 2 day Safari with Plex tours.

Their professionality, flexibility and reliability are worth mentioning.

As I was on a standby, I only knew last minute (10 minutes before departure) if I would make it to Dar es Salaam. Which meant I could only confirm our trip last minute. Plex was so kind to accommodate this unusual request, taking a risk with reserving space on the Safari tour.

From beginning to end we had a smooth, and exciting trip. Plex responds fast and clear. Everything was taken care of (tickets, ranger, hotel, lunch diner etc) and still left room for wishes or suggestions from our end. Accordingly, we only needed to sit and enjoy. It was a long journey from Dar es Salaam to Mikumi but our enthusiastic ranger Abel, who picked us up at the train station in Mogoro, was very welcoming, helpful and explained a lot about the park, Tanzania, the safari and much more.

Abel is a professional, knowledgeable, friendly and sharp ranger with great sense of humor. If he didn’t discover an amazing spot himself (Lions with cubs and a fresh pray, the alert baboons that lead us to a leopard) he made sure we were one of the first at the spot found by other rangers. He also looked after us for the lunch breaks and made sure the check in at the lodge was smooth. He even arranged a nice bottle of wine at our dinner table for us to enjoy whilst processing the day full of experiences and close encounters with elephants, giraffes, buffalos, zebras, lions etc.

We highly recommend Plex tours and Abel as the ranger. A winning combination for an unforgettable experience in Tanzania.

5/5

Everything from start to finish was organised perfectly. Communication from the agent was seemless. We were picked up by private driver on time to take us to airport. Then we were escorted to airplane that took us to the plane that flew us to Mikumi. Right when we landed, we were greeted by our amazing private tour guide Ricardo! He was so enthusiastic to show us the best views of the animals, and had great knowledge of each one of them. We were doing the safari with our one year old baby and he made the expierence for all of us so calm, even though baby was crying from time to time. We saw lions, elephants, girrafes, buffalos, pumbas, antilopes, wildabeasts, wild chickens, zebras, hippos… After the tour, we were escorted back to the plane to get back to Zanzibar where we again were greeted by our driver who took us back to the hotel.Overall, I absolutely recommend booking a safari with Plexi, the best experience ever!

5/5

I chose this operator because they offered the option to be able to do 3 game drives in Mikumi National Park and a visit to Massai in two days from Dar es Salaam. Abdl was my guide and he has a very good eye to see animals from the distance and explain their behaviours and features. Despite reviews usually say that March is not a good month to see animals I was able to see many of them. When going to Massai culture, Abdl explained to them about my veterinary background and the family allowed me to see and interact very closely with their valuable livestock. That made a very unique experience showing Abdl caring about the interests of the visitors. I would definitely contact Plex Africa Safaris again when I am back in Tanzania. What an experience!!
