Emphatically recommend Safari Multiways
The short answer is emphatically recommend. Read on for my more verbose description of why. After all, this is your money and your vacation time...For my first safari, I requested quotes and itineraries for a 7 day adventure in late June from over 10 top Trip Advisor recommended safari operators specifying moderate accommodations. I was curious why there was such a wide range in prices considering the plans and lodges they responded with were so similar. Based on the more reasonable end of the price spectrum and glowing online reviews I decided on this one. Romeo was stellar as he took care of all the planning and any time I had a question, of which there were several, he responded to my email by the next day. We also spoke once during the planning phase when I called him on WhatsApp. The parks visited were an incredible experience with a menagerie of animals, the lodges and tents we stayed in I rate as great to outstanding all with great food. Our guide was a phenomenal spotter who was extremely knowledgeable about animal behavior and social structure. Furthermore, he was congenial and we had fun together. He was focused and dedicated to making sure we were comfortable and had the best viewing experience and he went out of his way to do so. We saw multitudes of animals including many predators as well as the big 5. Given the incredible experience we had, I couldn’t understand why some other safari operators justified charging 50% to 90% more. Also, I prefer to deal with a locally owned and managed operator so the financial benefits go to the local economy, not a large corporate office in America or Europe. My safari was perfect and Romeo at Safari Multiways made it happen. I emphatically recommend them.

My experience with Safari Multiways was fantastic
Our guide Omary was very friendly and knowledgable.
Prior to trip, and even during the trip, the owner Mr Rweza, answered our emails promptly.
The lodge accommodations were clean and the lodge staff were very accommodating.
Overall it was an excellent experience.

Outstanding safari with Safari Multiways
We did a five day safari with Safari Multiways and could not fault it. It was amazing from start to finish. Romeo’s communication was perfect, the organisation could not have been better and our guide - Moses - was amazing! Ask for him! The accommodation was so much better than we expected, as was the food. We saw absolutely everything and didn’t feel like we missed out on anything. The best tour company around!

Excellent Safari Experience, catered to your budget
We spent 5 days, 4 nights touring the Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater, and Tarangire parks. If you are strapped for time go directly to Ngorogoro because it offers the most bang for your buck, there are animals everywhere and it's a small area to cover compared to Serengeti.
Romeo was easy to work with over email to discuss options in setting up lodging and dates. Piuc our tour guide was a super cool and cheerful guy and very knowledgable about the animals and parks - he was able to bring us to the Big 5 PLUS leopards, cerval cats, and too many exotic birds to remember. Our food was better than expected from Dogo our mild mannered chef. If I had one call out it would be the sleeping arrangement. We thought we would stay on elevated cots like the website pictures, but actually had something more a long the lines of mattress pads. Not a big deal since we went the budget route, but after 4 nights it can be rough on the hips/back. All in all an amazing experience and was flexible enough to be within our price range. Serengeti shall never die!

This is a wonderful family-operated business with personalized service and incredible expertise.
We had an amazing safari experience with Safari Multiways. Romeo always responded very promptly during my research phase and was really accommodating to my requests to adjust the standard itinerary. This is a small local business and it feels good to support the local economy as they guide you through the wonders of Tanzania. Our guides were expert trackers and very knowledgeable about wildlife, birds, and plants. I thought we would be lucky if we saw even one leopard or cheetah. We saw so many we stopped counting! Tons of lions, elephants, zebras and every other imaginable African animal were viewed in our private safari vehicle - Amos went out of his way to make sure we witnessed the wildebeest migration river crossing as well. This is truly a bucket list trip of a lifetime.
Go and enjoy safari with this company. You will be glad you did.

This safari was an amazing experience for live.
Romeo from the Safari Multiways organized an amazing special Safaritour just for us two. Our Guide Moses was the best Guide ever, we couldn't imagine a better one. He explained everything about the animals and the history of Tanzania to us.
Thanks you a lot for everything, we'll come back anytime.

Excellent operator, great communication, great team, great food and great experience
We were searching for a good but affordable TO to do a 6d/5n Safari in Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We contacted almost 20 different agencies. Almost all seemed to be good but in the end we decided for SM.
Why?
1. excellent communication with Romeo, the owner, who was very thorough, clear and patient in answering all the questions we had beforehand
2. It was the cheapest operator
3. We only found good reviews online
How was it then?
One word: excellent. This is not a „I want to help and promote an acency“-review what I am writing here. I really mean it. The staff (our guide was Moses, our cook was Rama) was indeed very very caring and ambitious that we felt well during the whole safari. Moses is a very nice and funny guy, with good language skills and an eagle eye when it comes to animal spotting. His knowledge was great also. Rama has been cooking exceptional for us. Every meal, even a simple breakfast was just great and tasty. There was nothing left to wish for.
We saw amazing landscapes, unbelievable fauna (including the Big 5) and a density of wildlife we could not imagine before actually seeing it.
To sum it up: We highly, highly recommend using Safari Multiways as a tour operator for your safari.

Great safari company for a great country
When we started to plan our trip to Tanzania we compared lots of safari companies trying to find out the company which offers the best safari. At least we decided to book our trip with Safari Multiways, because of the good reviews and also the good price for the nationalparks we wanted to see.
We have not regretted the decision.
We payed 200 Dollar in advance and the rest at the office the day before the beginning of the safari.
At the first day Moses, our guide, came to our hotel in Arusha and picked us up for the first Safari in the Arusha National Park.
We felt welcome for the first moment and already on the way to the Arusha national park we started to get to know Tanzania in a way that would be never possible if you travelled on your own.
Moses, our guide, did not leave any opportunity to bring his home country closer to us , explaning us the things we saw on the way, like the massai and their culture. He never got tired to answer our questions, even though we had a a lot.
Our safari tour started with the Arusha National Park from where we headed to the Fanaka Safari Campsite. From there we did our safaris to the Tarangire National Park and Lake Manyara. Afterwards we drove to the Ngorongoro Crater where we slept at the Simba campsite and headed then to the Sergenti and the north Sergenti. At least we drove back to Arusha with a stop at the Natron lake.
Moses always tried his best to spot the animals for us and was very successful.
We saw more animals than we had expected and had great experiences, for example more than fifteen elephants, also small ones, bathing in a water hole in the Tarangire national park, a rhino in the crater and groups of lions at the serengeti.
Moses always had the knowledge about the animals and tried his best to make us able to know the names of all the animals.
We had a private tour which was very nice cause we were allowed to let Moses stop the car where we want and as long as we want.
Moses always spooked to us in the evening about the timetable for tomorrow and we were allowed to discuss with him about the timetable.
The other part of our guide team was Doggo, our cook. He was really great. Before our trip we never thought that it would be possible to cook as many and as different food with these limited facilities. Every day Doggo surprised us with delicious food we could never eat up cause he always cooked that much that it would be enough for a whole soccer team.
Amazing experience with Safari Multiways!!!
The Safari Multiways experience was awesome!!! The manager of the Safari Multiways (Romeo) was very helpful before the booking. We sent many emails and asked so many questions and he always replied on time and tried to adapt his offer to what we wanted to do. We went on a three day safari in Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire parks.The driver (Piuc) and the guide (Exaudence) acted very professional, with a lot of climate and wildlife knowledge, always spotting animals, and stopping the car to take photos. They were so nice and had so much fun together! The accomodation at the resort was very nice, clean and the food was very good.They also helped us a lot while we stayed in Arusha. I will go again and with Safari Multiways for sure. Overall amazing safari!! I strongly recommend it!
