Perfect!
5/5

We decided to book the tour a day early, and they managed to coordinate everything perfectly! The vehicle we traveled in was very comfortable, with plenty of space and air conditioning. They picked us up right on time and were very friendly throughout the journey, telling us about the country and answering all our questions. Both spoke excellent English. Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro, we checked in and began the ascent. It's an easy three-hour hike, but all uphill. Along the way, they told us about the plants and animals we saw. We saw beautiful birds and two different types of monkeys. Lunch was fantastic, very complete; we couldn't even finish it all! On the way back, we took a slightly easier but equally beautiful route. It takes almost two hours. We returned on time. I highly recommend this experience; it's a bit pricey, but worth every penny to see the famous Kilimanjaro! I highly recommend that if you come to Tanzania, do this trek with this company!

Wonderful experience with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris
5/5

We did a game drive to Arusha National Park in November, and it was an unforgettable experience. Israel was our guide, and he truly made the day special. The vehicle was almost new, with large windows and a pop-up roof that gave us perfect visibility throughout the safari. They also provided a very tasty packed lunch, which was a lovely touch.

During the day, we decided to add a walking safari on short notice, and Israel arranged everything seamlessly. He was incredibly attentive, kind, and knowledgeable, always ready to help with any information we needed. As it was our first time in Tanzania and our first safari ever, we couldn’t have asked for a better guide or experience.

Highly recommended!

Incredible Safaris in Tarangire N.P and Ngorongoro Crater with Songbirds Safaris
5/5

Me and my wife we had incredible safari experience in Tanzania with our tour host (Tanzania Songbirds Safaris). We couldn't expect much time in Tanzania and is the reason we booked this tour on the last week before our safaris. But we felt on the safety hand with the company and our host operator (Israel), he make sure everything is excellent.

Our 2 days safari in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater is memory to remember in our trip to Tanzania, we had this trip with our knowledgeable guide Erick who take us to all parks, drive us well and feel comfortable with him, his excellent English and very experienced driver guide. With excellent eye sight and looking after us we able to spot many animals that include famous African animals on africa Safaris (The African big five). Erick answer all our questions with deeply detail about animals and nature.
The accomodations in Karatu is very nice midrange lodge for overnight and we thanks so much for the company to organize this trip well for us.
I recommend for anyone looking for great experience safaris in Tanzania.

Excellent!
5/5

This was such a nice tour and Israel was an amazing guide. He picked me up at my lodge and we went directly to the Cultural Heritage Center. It has an impressive art gallery and good shopping, including a beautiful Tanzanite collection. We visited a local market which was very interesting. People there were so nice and welcoming and proud of their wares. We also stopped by the Arusha Declaration Monument and the Clock Tower. We finished at the Natural History Museum. Throughout the tour, Israel taught me some Swahili words and was very knowledgeable about his country, his city, both historically and culturally. He was very professional and accommodating and went above and beyond. Thank you, Israel!

A must do when in Arusha - Arusha Walking Tour
5/5

Booked this walking tour as we had some spare time on our last day in Arusha. I booked it while I was in Arusha as I realised it was better for someone local to show us around. Israel our guide was able to pick us up from the hotel for the start of the tour and drop us off at the end. This helps enormously in getting to the places to see, The first place of visit is the art gallery. This covers a wide range of pictures, carvings and ornate items showing the multitude of tribes and history within the region. This is an impressive place where you can spend hours admiring everything there. Israel was able to answer all the questions we had and able to provide further background information. After this we went to the large market in Arusha which has such a wide variety of fresh food to admire. This also provides a good way to smell, hear and feel what it’s like to live in Arusha as a local person. Everyone is so friendly and it feels safe to be there. Overall, having someone like Israel show us these places provides great insights and an appreciation off life in Tanzania. Highly recommend taking this tour if you are in Arusha as Israel speaks excellent English and is a young talented person who helps to make you feel comfortable and has great knowledge.
