It was a good experience. The staff his name is Rambi was well taken care of and the staff tried to find animals in the safari for them to see.

Great service and knowledgeable guide
Beatrice was really helpful and she helped us organise this private tour. It was a really fun trip where we visited Tarangire National Park, Ngorogoro crater and Serengeti National Park. We saw many wildlife animals including the “Big Five”, hippos, crocodiles and flamingos. The highlight of the trip was when a cheetah hopped onto our car and we got to take pictures with it up close. Zephania, our guide was amazing and we highly recommend him. He is very good at spotting wildlife animals from afar and that is why we had plenty of opportunities to see lions and leopards. Also, he is friendly and is very knowledgeable.

Unbelievably good tour, from the best guide we’ve ever had
Our guide was Max, and despite having been on a number of different safaris across Africa and Asia, he was hands down the best guide we’ve ever had. A lot of guides are too desperate to please but Max made it felt more like we were travelling with a (very knowledgable) friend rather than just a desperate to please guide. He answered every question we had, provided countless titbits of information, knew every animal and bird, but also knew when we were just tired and needed to sleep as our journey to Tanzania had taken 47 hours. I also maintain that there isn’t a tour guide in the world with better driving skills than Max, as we saw every animal imaginable (including the very rare hunting cheetahs and a leopard), often within metres of our Jeep. I can’t speak highly enough of either Max or Full Package, and the next time we go on safari, there’s not a chance of us using anyone else.

Provides amazing adventure like you dreamt of and with deeply helpful approach
We had 5 days safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara) for 4 (2 adults,2 kids) with flight to/from Zanzibar. Coming back with unforgettable amazing memories. Our guide Adam did a really great job - we saw all animals possible. Great herds of antilops, zebras, buffalos, hippos. Beautiful close encouters with elephant families watching their social behaviours and dust bath. And veeeery close moments with lions… Many many minutes of observing wild life. Whole time with total respect for nature. Every day was a bit different and maintaining excitement, even for younger kids. Sunset drive and night in Serengeti was like from a dream. From organization perspective - all managed smoothly, yummy food also for lunch (seeing elephants down in the river on the left and lion on the right…), perfect contact and full help and assistance in case you need sth additionally (f.ex we needed to visit doctor on the way). I recommend this company from the botton of my heart. If we go back to Tanzania, definitely we will go on safari with Faithful Adventures again.

Our Unforgettable First Safari: A Family Adventure in Africa
As a family of four adults, our recent trip marked our very first adventure to the African continent, and it was truly an incredible experience.
Booking with Safari.com
We found Safari.com to be an incredibly efficient and user-friendly platform for planning our safari. It offers a wide array of destinations and tour operators, and the standardized format for comparing options made our decision-making process much easier.
Viega Expeditions: Our chosen tour operator was excellent. They were quick to provide quotes and highly responsive to all our questions. We especially appreciated how they customized the tour to fit our preferred accommodations. They also offered valuable guidance on our hotel stay in Nairobi, visa requirements, things to carry and, importantly for us, they eased our concerns about the availability of vegan/vegetarian food throughout the trip.
The 'Land Cruiser' provided for our game drives was in good condition. Our guide and driver, a Masai person, was not only polite and knowledgeable but also had an uncanny ability to take us to all the best game viewing locations.
A Hiccup:
The only significant issue we encountered was an unexpected request from Viega Expeditions for an approximate 10% price increase after we had paid our advance payment. While this was eventually settled for a lesser amount, it was a moment of concern. To avoid any potential misunderstandings any tour operators, we strongly recommend getting all seemingly obvious and minor details clarified and documented in the final proposal.
Overall Experience
Despite that small issue, our overall safari experience was magnificent, thanks to the genuinely helpful people we encountered along the way. The hospitality at all the camps we stayed in – Masai Mara and Amboseli - and even Naivasha was consistently outstanding.
