An amazing tour operator helped us fulfill our dream trip
This is a very reliable tour operator. Faraja listened carefully to my needs in the early stages and helped me create an itinerary that perfectly matched those needs. Our guide, Adrian, was the best; he had excellent driving skills, was highly professional, and quickly helped us find the animals we wanted to see!

The tour operator was professional and reliable
My experience with the tour was excellent overall. Communication was clear and timely, with detailed information provided before and during the trip. The service was top-notch—our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to assist. In terms of value for money, the tour exceeded my expectations; I felt that the quality of the experiences, accommodations, and transportation justified the cost. Everything was well-organized and reliable, with no major delays or issues. The tour itself was full of highlights, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable travel experience.

Extremely responsive, with great communication, and a top notch experience overall.
Stephen provided excellent communication in the days/weeks leading up to my safari. He offered quality hotel recommendations and a flexible private excursion at an excellent price. The evening before our safari he met me at the hotel to introduce me to our driver and show us the truck we would spend the next day in. Our driver and tour guide for the safari was Peter and he was very knowledgeable and put forth the effort and flexibility to make the trip as fun as possible the entire day. After the safari he even took us on a side trip to visit a family of Masai to learn about their culture. Overall I highly recommend Stephen, Peter, and Adventure Makers Tanzania.

An incredible and unforgettable experience! A 4-day Safari in three parks different from each other for landscapes. I thank the professionalism and competence of our guides who made us admire so many animals up close and witness spectacular moments of interaction between the animals. The agency is reliable and available, very good organization

Like all the collaborators, always available and with a huge smile. A special thank you to our chef Mathew who cooks the best soup ever and another thank you to our exceptional guide Praise, he is the best in Tanzania! We recommend this company, they are the best ones!!

Best Experience ever with Akondo Adventures!
One day before the safari started, I asked Akondo Adventures about the tour, at around 2 p.m.
From Zanzibar we had a 2-day safari in Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater. We were picked up from our hotel and taken to the airport. Then we flew to Arusha. Our guide and Boris were already waiting for us. On the first day we went to Tarangire National Park. There we saw most of the animals. Elephants, giraffes, baboons, ostriches, wildebeests, antelopes, zebras, warthogs and even a leopard - sleeping on a baobab tree!
At the end of the day we spent the night in a beautiful, luxurious lodge near Lake Manyara.
On the second day, the Ngorongoro Crater was on the agenda. The way there was very foggy. First we visited a Masai village. It was quite cold there early in the morning. Then we went into the crater. . We saw the large lake with its alkaline water. In addition to the day before, we finally saw the lions, several times. There were also flamingos, hippos and buffalo.
At the end we went back to the airport, where we saw Boris again.
Boris managed the whole trip very well and was responsive to our wishes and needs. And all this despite the fact that we had booked the tour one day before! We can recommend everyone to book a tour with Akondo Adventures.

Friendly, Knowledgeable, and Reliable
This was our first trip to Africa. We were very pleased with the support we received from Great Explorations, esp. Lilly. Not only did she help us put together a great itinerary but provided us with alternatives when our first choice wasn't available. In fact, we feel like the alternatives were even better than the original choices. We also pre-booked excursions in each location with Lilly's assistance, which helped us optimize the time we had. When our son became ill and we needed to make changes at short notice, Lilly was available after hours and worked out a solution for us. Finally, we very much appreciated working with Lilly's rental car partner, Classic Car Rental. I cannot overemphasize how important it is to have a reliable, well-maintained car on the Namibian roads. Great Explorations, Lilly and her team get 5-stars and two thumbs up from us. Highly recommended!

The tour was Fantastic!!!
Highly recommended tour.
We stayed in an excellent village in mikumi where we felt at home for the availability and friendliness of the staff.
In the three days we visited the Maasai village, went on a safari at Mikumi National Park and went trekking at udzungwa mountains national park. A beautiful and unforgettable experience that we highly recommend.
