Bramwel Safaris - Best Safari Operator, Amazing Safari
I came across Bramwel Safaris Contact, as I was researching what company to choose for our safari. Bramwel Safaris is a fairly small family-owned local tour operator. The manager, William, is very experienced, very helpful and reliable (he usually answered our emails within a few hours).
We spent 3 days in Serengeti and it was definitely the most exciting park of all. Ngorongoro was fascinating as well, but it lacks the vastness and diversity of Serengeti. Lake Manyara is a rather small Park; Tarangire is different again. It is a very large park with a very high density of elephants and an interesting hilly landscape (with many lookouts on the lower plains) along the Tarangire River. Arusha National Park is interesting as well, particularly for "speed visitors": You can do a 1-day safari from Arusha and spot many animals.
We had an unforgettable time in Tanzania with some fascinating insights into Tanzanian life and culture and incredibly interesting game drives. It was so far our most expensive holiday but it was worthwhile every dollar we paid. We will definitely come back to Tanzania and we will definitely go again with Bramwel Safaris.

It was a lovely experience we have never experienced in my entire life.
Wonderful trip to Central Kalahari & Okavango Delta
We had our first safari experience of wild camping in Botswana with kalahari Marsh safaris led by Lucky who was reliable all the time to assist us. We came away feeling extremely satisfied with all our expectations met! It was our very first time in the wild with wild animals around us, yet,we felt safe. The chef, camp hand and guide were extremely good.
The tents were comfortable and safe as we slept on stretchers, mattress and blankets. The meals were gourmet in the middle of nowhere and our game drives were superlative! We experienced the best of Kalahari and its amazing views,photography and everything, soul satisfying at the Okavango delta. Mokoro experience was out of the world, especially the bush walk with amazing polars. Everything seemed so surreal. Going by the mokoro was a fabulous experience with hippos all around. Respect for wildlife was very much in place. There were no untoward problems and we returned completely satisfied. Lucky arranged our transfer to Livingstone and visit to Victoria falls, which was a great experience. The icing on the cake for us was our stay at Mowana, Kasane, also arranged by Kalahari Marsh Safaris. It was truly,truly exotic. We thank Lucky and his team for giving us our best experience in the wild.

Zanzibar- Abdurahman Muhammed
We had the privilege of using Adburahman as our Tour guide on our holiday to Zanzibar.. We engaged him as a driver for the entire 7 days. He was absolutely fantastic. We planned our trips each day and he drove us patiently from place to place. Where necessary he assisted us in finding a guide. It was beyond comforting each day to look up at a particular time to find him patiently waiting for us. He was never even 2 minutes late. If we wanted to stay longer at a particular place or wanted to leave early we just sent him a WhatsApp and he was there in minutes.
His services were incredibly well priced. We would highly recommend using him in Zanzibar.

A Wonderful Tanzania Safari
We had 3 days before and 1 day after our hike up Kilimanjaro to take a safari. So we contacted Bramwel Safaris a couple of months before our scheduled arrival in Tanzania in order to arrange a safari. From the very beginning, William Bramwel, the owner of Bramwel Safaris, was prompt and responsive to our many email inquiries. He made many suggestions and modifications to our itinerary in order to accommodate our interests and time limitations. He did a superb job. He arranged to have us picked up at Kilimanjaro International Airport the evening of our arrival and transported to our overnight accommodations at Karama Lodge in Arusha. The next morning, William personally met us at Karama Lodge to welcome us, answer questions, and go over our safari plans. He let us know if we had any questions or concerns during our safari, to feel free to contact him. He also introduced us to Denis, our driver. During our safari, we visited Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Arusha Park. Denis, was great. His language skills are excellent. He made sure that we were enjoying our safari and that we had many opportunities to see the diverse animal populations residing in the parks. We never felt rushed and had unlimited opportunities to take photographs. Both William and Denis were also very willing to share their vast knowledge of the local cultures and languages. Our trip included a visit to a Maasai village where we were experienced Maasai dance and music. Our evening accommodations during the safaris were excellent. We stayed at the Maramboi Tented Camp and Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge were we enjoyed great evening views and dining. We will always be thankful to William and Denis for making our Tanzania adventure a truly wonderful and memorable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend contacting William at Bramwel Safari if you are looking for a Tanzanian safari of a lifetime.

The experience of a lifetime!
My husband (see Frank's review below), I, and our teenage daughter had an unforgettable 10 day safari and 3 day visit to Zanzibar. We began our trip with a lovely hike through Chagga villages to the Materuni waterfalls. This was followed by visits to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Central and Northern Serengeti. Each park has something unique to offer and the landscapes are simply stunning.
Bramwel made all the arrangements (including internal flights) and the customer service provided was excellent. William was remarkably prompt and helpful and patiently responded to all our questions. We wanted to support a local Tanzanian company but were unsure who to trust. William provided us with several US references who emailed glowing reviews and this made all the difference to us. I can say without reservation that this is a company to be trusted. William stayed in touch with us throughout the trip to make sure that we were happy with all the arrangements. We chose a combination of lodges and tented camps which provided a good balance for us. Mara Under Canvas in Northern Serengeti in particular was gorgeous and provided an experience in the wilderness we will never forget.
The importance of a good guide cannot be over emphasized. Our guide Freddie was wonderful. I cannot say enough about his professionalism, friendliness, and knowledge of animal behavior and Tanzanian customs. His english was excellent, he kept his Land Cruiser spotless, and we felt very safe in his hands. He went out of his way to locate animals for us and impressed us over and over again with his skill at spotting animals. We saw all the Big 5 and so much more! At the end of our trip, he was not only our guide but also our friend.
Zanzibar was fascinating. The Z Hotel was very comfortable located right on the beach with a warm and friendly staff. The detour to Zanzibar is well worth it and I highly recommend visits to Stone Town, the spice plantations, the Jozani Forest and the remarkable Rock restaurant.
Our trip to Tanzania exceeded all our expectations. It truly was an experience of a lifetime. I recommend Bramwel without hesitation and will most definitely use William's and Freddie's services again. I cannot wait to return to Tanzania!

Great and maybe better!
We had a great guide, Freddie, who provided terrific services throughout our 10 day safari. We went as 3, with my 14 year old daughter. William Anon, the owner of Bramwel Safairis, is honest. He delivers on his promises. He was responsive to all booking questions. His prices are more than competitive. We stayed in tents and lodges which conformed to his representations at booking. Glamping is worth it!! The stop at the Mara River, where we saw 4 crossings and predations, will last with my family for a long time. I cannot say enough good things about Bramwel Safaris!!!

Prompt, professional with a personal touch.
Bramwel safaris offers professional customised tours. Mr William is very prompt in communication and everything was delivered as promised. Driver Tumaini was very knowledgeable, jovial and reliable. He went the extra mile to help us and educate us about Africa and animal behaviour. Thanks to both of them! Would certainly recommend.
Absolutely flawless arrangements. The entire tour was a once in a lifetime experience.
They delivered 100 % on all commitments . The owner himself received us and the driver Fred didn't hesitate to put in effort far beyond the call of duty to ensure that we had the best experience ever. All accommodation was very good and the service exemplary. I must also thank the people of Tanzania for being so welcoming and friendly I would happily recommend Bramwel
