Perfect journey,

Food was great and tents in Serengueti very cozy. Very friendly staff indeed
Wee recommend this trip to anybody wanting to have a fun and exciting time.
Thank you team. Hopefully we will come back!

Best of experience with Parakuyo Tours & Safaris
I would love to recommend Parakuyo Tours & Safaris team for excellent service and incredible experience we've had with them. I've met Meleck John for the 1st time in 2004 while travelling to Arusha for my very 1st safari experience and then again in 2013 on my second visit. On my first visit in 2004, I was with 2 friends from France and we did not have anything booked in advance.We opted to ask around for a private guide and Meleck John got recommended to us. We went with him on a 1 day safari tour at Ngorongoro national park and it turned out to be an amazing experience. John is very honest, funny, friendly and extremely patient person. He is very knowlegeable and very generous sharing his culture and land.We learnt a lot about different landscapes, customs, animals and tribes. He is excellent at spotting animals and always ensured that we saw all different species. I remember that we even managed to see lions on our 1 day visit which is not always gained in advance and it was impressive.We felt very safe in his company and had great fun - Since then me and my friends have been recommending Meleck and his company to all our friends who go to Tanzania for a Safari-tour experience and they all come back thrilled with the experience and amazing service received from Meleck and his team.
I would highly recommend Parakuyo Tours and Safari for high quality service, great fun & unforgettable lifetime memory in one of the most beautiful countries in East Africa. You won't find a such honest & professional team anywhere else in Tanzania!!!
Thanks again Meleck for one of the very best experiences of my life. I will for sure come back again :)

A memorable trip arranged by Safari Specialists
Safari Specialists was a fantastic choice! They were responsive to my interests and budget, and I appreciated their honesty about what I could expect to see in the month of March in Botswana (wet season). My agent put a lot of time into booking the itinerary that best suited by schedule and wildlife interests. This company also gave me one of the best quotes, compared to larger companies like Wilderness and &Beyond. My 5-day safari was a magical experience, and I highly recommend Safari Specialists!

Grand tour of Namibia
The tour you put together for us was undoubtedly one of the best touring holidays we have ever had'
Namibia is a fascinating country of so many contrasts, and stunning scenery. Having lived in South Africa for so many years, and understanding weather and drought conditions, it was wonderful to see the country looking so green and lush, and even a river or two with water in them! We also understand why there was so remarkably little game to be seen in the Etosha. (A first time visitor wanting to see game would have been very disappointed) But we also knew when we booked it was not the prime time of year to be coming. I was not convinced about doing the 'Living Desert Tour' but it was the most fascinating and informative morning!
Jakes was in all respects a marvellous guide, safe driver, and so attentive and considerate of all our needs before we even realised we had any. He is passionate about the country, and with his farming background, so knowledgeable and interested in all aspects of ecology, flora and fauna. He is a very interesting dinner conversationalist; we have an insatiable curiosity about countries we visit, not just what we are looking at, but also about the people and their thoughts, politics and attitudes and history.
Thank you for changing the Hilton Hotel for us - I know I said a city hotel, but the Belvedere was in all respects far more comfortable.
All the hotels and lodges you booked for us were excellent, rooms comfortable, food good and all situated in amazing environments.
We would totally recommend your organisational skills and itinerary recommendations to anyone.
Knowledgeable Team
Owing to the deep knowledge of the product and good and prompt communication, I was able to organize a safari for two visitors who decided abruptly. The safari was excellent and my guests were happy. Thanks Favour.

A dream honeymoon and trip of a lifetime
After alot of research we decided to book with Nyasi for our honeymoon safari. From the very first contact with Robert the entire process was efficient and very well handled with Robert giving us alot of very useful advice to help customise the tour to exactly what we wanted.
We did a southern and northern safari with Davis as our guide in the south and Manuel as our guide in the north. The whole safari was excellent and very well organised with both Davis and Manuel being fantastic guides who looked after us fantastically and really made it the trip of a lifetime we had hoped it would be.
We saw so many animals and learned so much about the tanzanian culture and people that was made even more special with the expert knowledge of our guides.
We would absolutely recommend Nyasi for your safari (And have been to our colleagues!)
Awesome operator
This operator are very helpful, honest and enthusiast to plan your itinery according to your budget for a safari of a lifetime. I &my family enjoyed being served by them through Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Olduvai Gorge to Lushoto (Usambara Mountains). Thank you Safaricare. Willing to book you again in the future for other itineries.

This really was the ultimate safari experience. Absolutely amazing!
We had the ultimate bush experience. Camping in the middle of no where! Enjoying the stillness, listening to the chorus of frogs, the laugh of hyaenas, the chirp of a nightjar and the roar of lions.
We camped in Moremi, Khwaii, Savuti and Cobe Ihaha. It was a thrilling 4x4 drive between camps and one of the highlights. We saw: elephants, giraffes, zebra, buffalo, buck, lions, even a pride of 17, and even a cheetah and a honey badger. The bird sightings were outstanding!
In our private camp, we had our own tent with separate toilet, shower and basin just outside the tent. It was like having our own hotel room with en-suite bathroom, right in the middle of the bush. It was very comfortable.
Nike was our chef who fed us with simple and tasty food cooked over an open fire. Isaac, our guide and driver, was one of the most knowledgeable guides that we have encountered (and we spend a lot of time in National Parks). We even had our own back up 4x4 driven by Booysen who was the jack of all trades, helping to set up the camp before we arrived.
It was sensational, we are definitely going to do it again. MG, the owner of Bush Baby Calls, was the most gracious host from our arrival in Maun to our departure 12 days later. He really went out of his way to make our stay memorable by showing us around Maun before and after our safari.
This really was the ultimate safari experience. Absolutely amazing!

Ecxellent Trip
the trip was just excellent, we loved how personalized it was. We saw tons of wildlife (including a leopard), great scenery, and the accommodations and food were good too (exceeded our expectations). The only negative was the amount of driving, especially on bumpy and unpaved roads, that needed to be made between the desired destinations. I guess we all didn't realize how long the distances were between all, until we actually got there. However, James, our driver truly made up for it. He was the best driver/guide we could only imagine to have on such trip - very experienced (certainly not easy to drive in these conditions for such long amount of time), knowleable, flexible, delivered everything we asked him for, and most importantly - funny as he kept everyone in great mood from the start of the trip till the end. I would appreciate if you could give him some big Kudos from us as he truly desrves it.
