A wonderful trip.
We couldn't be more happy with our 6 day camping safari. Romeo organised an itinerary that matched our needs perfectly, responding promptly to enquiries and requests. Every aspect of the trip went according to plan, from our pick up at Arusha to the drop off at Kilimanjaro. Our guide, Donald was extremely well organised and his knowledge and spotting ability allowed us to enjoy the experience to the full. We had excellent views of the three big cats, but the highlight was watching the birth of a wildebeest and seeing it make its first tentative steps just 20 minutes later. As a keen bird watcher, ! was happy to see almost 200 species in the six days.Our camping experience was enhanced by the wonderful cooking of our chef, Dogo, who managed to produce tasty and creative meals on a couple of kerosene stoves. A truly wonderful trip.

A Memorable 5D4N Safari!
I contacted Romeo from Safari Multiways back in Novemeber about a budget safari for my wife and I, and received a detailed response about the itinerary options. His responses were professional and detailed every time he wrote back, as I did have many questions.
Our 5 Day Itinerary details was as follows:
day1: tour Tarangire park, overnight at a camp near Manyara. Full Board.
day2: transit Ngorongoro to Serengeti, game drive in Serengeti, overnight at central Serengeti. FB
day3: full day in central Serengeti/south Serengeti, back to the camp. FB.
day4: morning game drive in Serengeti, then to Ngorongoro, overnight at Simba camp site near the crater rim. FB
day5: crater tour, back to Arusha. End of safari.
We were accompanied by our guide and chef, who set up the campsite every time we moved, and had prepared delicious meals for us every day. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgable about the animals on our game drives.
The company also arranged airport pick up, hotel transfer and hotel pick up before the safari, and hotel drop off and airport drop off after the safari.
This was our first time in Africa, and we absolutely loved it! It really was an experience of a lifetime, and I do think the company had a lot to do with it. I would highly recommend them.

Excellent Safari (Tarangire, Manyara, Serengetti, Ngoronogoro)
My family of four really enjoyed our safari organized by Safari Multiways. It was a pleasure dealing with Romeo for his expertise in making the arrangements and designing a custom itinerary for our adventure. The whole experience exceeded our expectations and our driver (Omary) and cook (Dogo) did a great job taking care of us during our camping safari. I highly recommend Safari Multiways.

Great 8-days camping safari in Northern Tansania
In October we were lucky to do an 8-days budget camping safari with SafariMultiways for two persons, my wife and me. At first I'd like to point out the perfect communication: All communication while organizing the trip from home was done by Email and Romeo patiently answered all our questions. Each time he wrote back on the same day. That was superb.
(Btw.: He asked us to pay 200 $ in advance as a reservation fee and gave us the option to either do it by credit card or "Swift"-transaction, I chose the latter and had to pay lots of fees to the bank, so if you are asked, better choose credit card.)
We arrived in Arusha one day before going on Safari and in our trip-package pick up from airport and drop off were included, so there were two guys waiting with a sign written with our names on it at the airport. Perfect. Next day we got up very excited, at 8:00 a.m. our guide was expected to meet us at our hostel, he already showed up at 7:30 and waited patiently for us to complete our breakfast. On the next days we visited Arusha NP, Tarangire NP, Lake Maniara NP, Ngoro-Ngoro Crater, Serengeti NP and Lake Natron, of which Tarangire and Serengeti were the total highlights.
We had a guide and a cook on our trip and used a Toyota Land Cruiser (pretty much every tour organizer does so) to get around. Beforehand we aked for Amos as a guide, as we had read some reviews talking about him and we really got him. Unfortunate he had to leave after the third day so we got Hamisi as our second guide. Both were spectacular guides with good humor and huge knowledge of all wildlife in the parks. Our cook was Dogo, who cooked great dinners every night (don't forget to mention any kind of diet you prefer in advance so that they can prepare). We felt totally comfortable all the time with our team. The first 3 nights we stayed at the great "Fanaka" camping site, the best spot during the trip. As we had booked a budget camping tour the other camping sites were real budget sites, a little bit overcrowded and sanitaries were not that much cleaned. Next time I would prefer to spend a little bit more for better camping sites, but everyone has to decide on his own.
Our guides made this a totally awesome experience and we saw every animal we wanted to see. I totally recommend to take a trip with Safari Multiways!
In the end, 3 days after returning to Arusha we got the airport drop off and left. Great experience!

100% Recomendable
Our experience with Safari Multiways was excellent.
We were a group of 4 persons in an 8 days private Safari in Northern Tanzania (Tarangire-Ngorongoro-Serengeri-Natron)
The communication with the manager Romeo was very smooth and easy. He provided us with all the information. We had in mind an itinerary which was improved with Romeo's recommendations. They can costumise your Safari based on your needs and budget.
Once there, the Safari was excellent. We did not have any problems at all with the accomodations or the park fees, everything went as planned. Our guide, Yuma, was an excellent companion who fulfilled our expectations and more. We learned a lot about animals and nature and we spotted a lot of animals with his help. We totally recommend Safari Multiways to everyone. They're very professional and responsive.

Had a wonderful 1st Safari and will go with them on our next.
Husband and I just returned from 4.5 days safari coordinated by Romeo. We planned and chose the accommodations ourselves except Migunga at Lake Manyara. Romeo was very responsive via email. His price was very competitive. We were lucky to get Ayubu (sp?) as our guide/driver for his super vision for birds as my husband is a birder. Everything delivered as planned. We spent 1 night at Manyara, 1 at Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge - went for crater rim walk with a ranger, 2 nights in Serengeti and flew out to Arusha - best decision we made cutting the time and dust! At Arusha airport, his staff picked us up and drove us to Namanga and smoothly completed a handover to our TO in Kenya. We highly recommend Romeo.

Safari Tarangire NP
Me and my girlfriend went with Safari Multiways to Tarangire NP for 3 days. From the start the safari was amazing. Abdul was a fantastic guide, really professional, patient and answering our questions. We got to see all the wildilife possible. Also we stayed in a great tented camp. Overall the whole collaboration with Safari Multiways was professional and easy. We would definitely recommend it.

awesome, enriching experience
The full experience was great and went above our expectations. Romeo (the manager) was very helpful when organizing everything and responded all our e-mails in a timely manner.
We had Amos as our guide and he was extremely professional. We even saw a caracal (it is a very hard to spot wild cat, so rare that another group was next to us but their guide didn't even know the animal and they just moved on not being to interested). I would totally recommend visiting the bushmen and the blacksmith tribes. Both experiences were really culturally enriching, especially with the blacksmith tribe.
We have seen all the animals we were hoping to see when we left home with only one exception, the rhino, despite all the efforts the guide has made in order to make it possible. Another thing that we appreciated was how he was able to read animal's behavior: several times it happened to have other safari cars around us and if they were already there by the time we arrived in that spot that means they had a better viewpoint. That changed fast because our guide was clever enough to anticipate what the lion/leopard will do in order to be ahead of them and enjoy watching them in their natural habitat.
In the end of the trip, we had one night at lake Natron which I can't say was a must do. As an advice for other tourists I would suggest to spend more time in Serengeti and skip Lake Natron (especially if you get to see Lake Easy before, both are very similar and people at lake Natron were only trying to get more money out of your pockets), even if this means spending more hours on the road for the returning to Arusha.
Also, not to forget mentioning the food which was tasty and according to our preferences.
I would recommend this trip to anyone who is a nature/animal lover and wants some cultural experience as well.
Thank you,

Excellent service, flexible, and honestly priced
Safari was tailored to our needs, with help from Romeo right from the start. He and his team were very quick and consisely informative with all communications. Ask and you'll receive.
The pricing was honest and fair, amazing given it's so often hard to come by in Tanzania.
Amos was a brilliant guide, he accomadated all our needs.
Ok our truck looked a bit tattier, but honestly they're all the same really, everybody does the same stuff. Unless you think it's worth paying $5000 extra simply for a leather lined seat. They've all got the same: power outlets, seat layout, and fridge in the back - don't be fooled that these are luxuries with those pricey companies.
Look no further this company was great.
