Thank you for wonderful experience in Tanzania !!
5/5

We reserved 8days(30th Dec - 7th Jan) mid-range class tour by e-mailing to Mr.Richard.

Frankly speaking, at first we felt a little nervous,as it was first time to send such a big money through web.(of course it was fully securited web site tough)
We sent 50% first on booking and the rest of 50% was sent a few weeks before departure but anyway total 100% advance payment was required before departure.
Richard answered very quickly all of our questions, he updated all the situation right on time and the process was very smooth!
As many people say on this site, Richard works very quickly and that makes us relieved surely.
(Thanks for it Richard !! :D)

About tours itself,
Our driver(Mr.Horace) was very nice and professional guide and drive safety always.(That's why sometimes we feel asleep in the car...sorry! :D)
He accompanies us for 8 days always including a Happy new year !!
He was punctual always and knew a lot of things about animals,trees,birds etc.... and shared all the knowledge with us.
What is more he tought us what it is about Tanzania(culture,people,language,life,problem etc...) and that made our trips even special as it is always nice to know about the country itself.(in additional to main purpose which is Safari)

During the trip we faced flat tyre 2 times unfortunately(as expected !?) but no wonder as the road is very rough.
But Mr.Horace fixed it very smooth and quickly and it was no problem at all.(it was even good experience as a part of our journey)

We strongly recommend this company and the driver Mr.Horace especially.
Please enjoy it and von voyage !!!

Great safari: well organized ad flexible
5/5

We had a great experience with World Tours & Safaris Tanzania.
In the process of choosing out operator, communication was friendly, fast and very clear. On arrival everything was well arranged and guide Stanley + chef Sokofo contributed to a safari we will never forget.
Campsites were good, would recommend 100%.

Excellent tour = excellent experience = excellent price!!!
5/5

We recommend!
We was 3 days: Lake Manyara, Empakaai Crater, Olmoti Crater, Olduvai Gorge, Ngorongoro Crater.
Richard is the best manager of the safari and recreation! Our driver (Frank) is the best professional. Our cook (Sokofo) was preparing a meal quickly and very tasty.
We spent the 1 night in Panorama, on the edge of the Great Rift Valley. WOOW!!!
2 night was in tent camp.
Frank found it and showed us all the African animals on safari . WOOW!!!
After traveling, Richard offered to stay in your hotel. Hotel was very quiet and clean.
Thank you for the pleasure!

Cannot recommend highly enough - great price for budget safari!
5/5

We booked a 2D/1N budget camping safari of Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater - the price we were given was fantastic and much cheaper than we had seen elsewhere. Richard (the manager) responded quickly to all our queries, and was great to deal with prior to the trip.
The safari itself was brilliant - we had a spacious, comfortable jeep, knowledgeable guide (Felix) and great cook who cooked us delicious dinner and breakfast and huge lunchboxes. We definitely did not go hungry! The parks are beautiful and you will see lots of wildlife whoever you go with - but I would highly recommend World Tours Tanzania for their professional and friendly service. We particularly loved the T-shirts we were given, and a bottle of 18% wine to enjoy at the campsite :)
Thank you for the trip of a lifetime!

An Outstanding Once in a Lifetime Experience
5/5

I am very pleased with the 3 nights safari I did with this company. We spent two nights in the Serengeti at a campsite and one night at the Ngorongoro Crater campsite. The weather was good and by lunch of the first day we had already seen the big 4 that one can see in Serengeti. We managed to see lions multiple times and the others at least twice up close. Our guide was the best as well as our cook. We really got along well and I was inspired by how they served us. Our guide was so so knowledgeable and took the time to answer all our questions in sufficient detail. He is also a great driver who got us from place to place safely and used his communication equipment effectively to link with other drivers so we could get to certain spots to see different animals - simply fabulous. Our cook outdid himself - even in the bush and made some pretty tasty meals that stood out more than many others I had had while travelling in the region. It was really great. Our group had good chemistry and we got along well as old friends would have.

Richard, the owner was very professional and friendly. I like how smoothly everything flowed and was so happy to be picked up at the bus stop after hrs getting to Arusha from Dar Es Salaam and getting settled in the hotel provided with a nice meal prepared to order for a good price. I also love the fact that I was taken around to get a bus ticket to Nairobi after the safari and shuttled to the bus pick up point the following day. I experienced outstanding customer service and would do another safari with these guys for sure. They did an outstanding job and everything just worked together well to make it an all round great experience. I did a group safari with people I had never met but awesome for me that we all got on well.

Expereince of a Lifetime!
5/5

We loved our tour with World Tours & Safaris. I was nervous because you never know what you are going to get, but World Tours dispelled all my fears!

The guide and cook were both great. The food that they provided three times a day was creative, fresh and surprisingly healthy. We never got sick or anything. The tent was nice and the foam mattress, pillow and sleeping bags were very clean and adequately comfortable. I am sure you could pay twice the price for a thicker mattress, but it was not necessary. We are 50 ish and 60 ish and were mildly roughing it, but for the price and experience it was totally worth it.

Our guide Frank was very knowledgeable and really knew how to keep everyone safe and happy. The guide and cook both worked very hard to ensure everyone was happy.

And we saw all the animals (except the Rhino) and amazing landscapes!

Brilliant operator in every way
5/5

Hello All, I feel compelled to write a review about world tours and safaris and the owner Richard. Richard was fantastic in the build up to our safari and was quick to respond to emails and very clear on what was included etc. When we arrived we got everything promised and Richard organised prompt and safe transfers, great pre safari budget accommodation where we were really well looked after and made to feel at home. The safari was brilliant and our every need was catered for. Our guide knew everything and inspired a lot of confidence, the vehicle was great and our cook was fantastic. We felt really safe and the whole thing felt like fantastic value for money.

World tours and safaris really impressed me when things went wrong. On the morning of our third day, I received news from the UK that my father was suddenly critically ill in hospital and I needed to head back immediately. We were in a very remote area but Richard and his team managed to produce a car for us straight away and the brilliant guide and cook were loading our bags and packing us food for the journey. Richard made sure the driver got us to the airport as fast as possible and the driver even stayed with us until he was sure that we were booked onto a new flight. Richard made everything happen so easily and made a terrible situation more bearable. In conclusion, if you want a great safari and, more importantly, the piece of mind that you are using a company who genuinely care about you... Choose these guys.

Wonderful experience!!!!!!
5/5

My boyfriend and I did a 3 night 4 day budget safari in May 2016. We visited Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. We had an amazing time with World Tours and Safaris!! Richard, the manager, was quite helpful answering all of our questions and concerns before we arrived. The best part of our experience was our guide/drive, Steven! He had an incredible knowledge of the flora & fauna and superhuman eyesight!! Big thanks to him and our chef, we had a wonderful experience and got to see the Big 5! I cannot recommend him enough :)
