Great tour through Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire
We did a 5 day camping safari with Safari Multiways. We got perfect communication by email with Romeo. He replied very fast to any question or anything I asked for, so I had a really good feeling in advance. This was topped when we where in Tanzania. Airport transfer worked perfect, we talked to Romeo the next morning and shortly after the safari starts with our guide Amos and the cook Moses. The two guys are a dream team. Amos spotted every animal we wanted to see and Moses cooked really really good food!
We saw the great migration and a lot of cats and other animals. All in all it was the perfect trip and we will think and dream about this for our whole life. Don't think twice - DO IT!

Great company!
When choosing a safari tour operator, I started with a list of twenty companies and Anda ended up among my final three choices. Among my firm criteria were that I wanted a company with a USA office, and would answer my emails in a timely fashion. I was enormously impressed with the cheerful detailed emails I got from Anda and their prices were great. They never pressured me and were always able to give me clear explanations and answers. In the end I eventually needed certain items/services their company did not offer and I ended up booking with a different tour operator instead. I would still heartily recommend Anda for professional, cheerful prompt service and would still happily consider them for future trips when I will have different needs during those trips.

Incredible safari from an excellent safari operator
My wife and I were so impressed with every aspect of our safari. Our guide, Arosto, was absolutely brilliant. He was funny and friendly, very knowledgeable, and very good at spotting animals that we missed. He worked tirelessly and successfully to ensure we saw lots of animals, including the Big 5, and on several days kept driving until it was dark so we could make the most of each day. He seemed to know intuitively when to wait at a particular spot, and as a result we saw a lion hunt in action as well as two wildebeest river crossings during the great migration. We cannot speak highly enough of him and would ask for him specifically if we go on a safari in Tanzania again.
We were also very impressed with the all round service provided by It Started in Africa. Their responses to our questions over email were always very prompt and they were very helpful in helping us organise the details of our trip. We always felt confident with their suggestions and the help they provided us when booking our hotel on Zanzibar was very useful. We would definitely recommend It Started In Africa to all our family and friends.

Knowledgable and safe
Our guide was very knowledgable and patient with all our questions. He put our safety first and was able to present the best of Africa to us by bringing us to places where we could watch the animals.
All accommodation recommended and booked by Jackpot Safaris was top notch.
We wold highly recommend this safari organizer to anyone wanting to get a real African experience.

A fantastic once-in-a-lifetime experience
We went to Tanzania for a week long safari tour. Pita Safaris were very informative, helpful and personal. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around the Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. We had a jeep to ourselves, which was wonderful. The "tented" accommodation and catered meals were absolutely first class. Every day we experienced new and fantastic scenery and wildlife. We were thrilled with the views and we were amazed at the abundance of wildlife and the proximity at which we could experience it. We were able to see some wonderful activity, from massive herds, elephants bathing,giraffes running, hippos fighting, lions running, little lion cubs eating and playing and hyenas surrounding lions waiting to take their dinner, to mention but a few. It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, made very special by Pita Safaris. Somehow they managed to make the whole trip both exciting and relaxing! I would highly recommend Tanzania as a place to visit, and Pita Safaris as an excellent way to experience the wildlife and scenery. Thank you for everything. We had a wonderful honeymoon.

Uganda a MUST-SEE travel destination specially with Grassrootz Adventure!!
Grassrootz Adventure is a great organization for an unforgettable safari!
It was the second time we booked a safari with Grassrootz Adventure, because the first time we had a really good experience with them.
We planned the trip by our selves and the guide gave us good advice for campings, hotels, restaurants and amazing places where we never go by ourselves.
One night we slept in the middle of the jungle by the river between Congo and Uganda.
We heard a lot of sounds from wild animals like elephants,lions and hippo's, very exciting!!
Both times we had a reliable driver and a very experienced guide, we saw a lot of wildlife even some climbing tree lions.
We had close contact with the local people and we visited the Karamoja and other projects.
So if you want a great safari and if you want to see the culture of Uganda, Grassrootz Adventure is the best choice!!

Perfect service!
I was very happy with the professional service: clear proposals in a timely matter. Upon arrival, everything went smoothly from the airport transfer to the safari in Masai Mara which made our stay in Kenya unforgettable!

One day safari tour - Akagera National Park
I had one day safari tour in Akagera National Park in October. I was visiting Kigali, Rwanda for work and had one free day with a 8pm flight back home. When I sent an email with inquiry, I explained my situation with returning flight in the evening, and I was very happy to know that the company could take me to airport right after safari drive. Frank was extremely helpful by meeting with me a day before at my hotel and going over the logistics of the tour. He showed me a photo of the car and explained that it would be a half day tour because of my flight. Also, he recommended to check out from the hotel early in the morning and go to the tour with my luggage. My driver was very professional, he provided water and made sure I was comfortable. The drive to the park was about two hours on a very good condition road. The scenery outside of Kigali is absolutely breathtaking! It is a land of thousand hills and beautiful. The park's visitor center is very nice and has an exhibit. The park has lots of animals and my driver made sure I saw most of the animals and was able to make videos/take pictures. Also, my driver recommended to pack lunch to eat in the park's picnic area which is an open space with a view of animals. We returned to Kigali early, I had plenty of time in the airport to shop, etc. This company is very responsible and provides great service to its customers.

Dusty Roads - perfect name for the company, as it is very dusty in all Tansania! We have very good memories from our 7-day Machame Route Kilimanjaro Trek. We book the trip from Europe and we chose "Dusty" as I was very impressed with contact via email with Mollel from the very beginning and have to say it stayed like that till the last minute of our trip. Mollel is extremely nice person, he will take very good care of you.
We took the budget option for Kilimanjaro and we strongly recommend it. You will get 12-people team (2xguide,1xcook and 9xporter). The food was tasty, varied and the portions were bigger than we could eat. Guides (Abdi and Frank) walk with you during trek route all the time, they ask you often about your condition and make sure you eat and drink a lot. Also they have been a massive support for me while reaching summit!
All the trip plan also matched with the description which we received earlier, so no surprises...maybe only one - nice gift box from Mollel on our departure and support with buying some souvenirs :)

Kruger Park Birding
We had an amazing time birding with Mr Morris at the Kruger National Park, his knowledge of the wildlife especially the bird life was extensive and frankly impressive! Will definitely be coming back for more!
