Everything is more than Incredible!! For your best Safari
Everything happened in Tanzania was like a dream for us.
My wife and I had the best and most incredible experience ever in Tanzania.
It is all because of Charles Joseph, the driver and guide, and Pascali, the cook.
We spent 5 days together and I just can't have enough word to explain how thankful we are.
Every single minute is full of joy.
Our journey was fulfilled with happiness and pleasure.
Charles Joseph's characteristics are awesome.
He always tries to entertain us.
He is always punctual.
He always cares about us.
He never neglects maintenance of his vehicle.
everything is more than perfect.
Pascali is the best safari cook.
We were so surprised that he cooked so tasty and delicious food within such a limited facility in camps.
We sometimes felt cold at night, and in that time, his soup warmed us not in the meaning of physically but mentally as well.
Yes, we completed Big 5.
On last day, Charles Joseph made a great effort to find the last piece, Rhynos.
and we made it by finding a family of them with a baby in Ngorongoro.
To see many animals in wild life is one of our major purposes in our journey.
but, what remains in our memory the most after leaving the country is one that we sung Jumbo song altogether on the way.
After we departed from the safari car, my wife kept crying for more than one hour at the airport because she missed both of them so much.
We are really really happy and lucky to have a safari with Charles Joseph and Pascali.
Words cannot explain how much we feel in that way.
Honestly speaking, I sent emails to 4 companies to ask for quotation and their context of safaris.
"It Started in Africa" always reverted emails to me faster than any other companies with full of answers.
We exchanged our emails more than 50 times, which obviously displays their dedication to customers and aspiration to entertain people who go to Tanzania.
For sure, I recommend you to travel in Tanzania with "It Started in Africa"

Incredible, all-inclusive trip!
A group of friends and myself booked through this company for a two part vacation; climbing Kilimanjaro and exploring the Serengeti. I thought it was going to be very hectic and confusing, and I packed a lot of what-if items just in case...
I could not have been more wrong!
They took care of absolutely everything. Every meal, every stop, every attraction was well thought out. Our guides for Kilimanjaro, Amir and Hussien were very, very knowledgeable and professional. We picked their brains the whole hike, and there was not a single question they could not answer. The porters worked incredibly hard for us too. By the end of the climb, they all felt like family.
The Serengeti was equally amazing! our driver #Ritchard# was impressive in his ability to find every animal we were looking for, and he knew everything about them! We saw all of the Big 5! And we got very close to almost every creature we came across (except the rhinos, they're tricky) All of our accommodations were spectacular, from luxury tents in the Serengeti (buffaloes relaxing outside my tent!) to the Serena Crater Lodge (amazing place, awesome entertainment!)
At first I thought the trip was a little pricey (around $2,300) but when I found out what other tourists we met were paying (some of them upwards of 5k!) I soon realized we got the best deal for what we paid for. Again, absolutely amazing and I would do it again in a heart beat.

Had a great time in Kenya and Eusty is the best
Booked with a different tour operator that used Wildebeest as the guide company in Kenya. Had a wonderful time, learned a lot and saw everything I hoped for. And we made a new friend along the way. Thanks Eusty!

It is worldclass
My wife and I visit the Kruger Park since 1995 more or less regularly and we are happy to see, that the services are maintained (if not improved) at an excellent standard.
Very helpful and efficient in organising our itinerary.
Communications and service both excellent. The safari tour was at Lalibela, we had been before so it was as good as always.

Fantastic! Personable and caring throughout and had a great wildlife experience.
We loved travelling with Makasa! Selma and Ngomi arranged everything in a personable, efficient, and caring way. We had an excellent guide who, like the other Makasa guides, had a good knowledge of trees and birds as well as the incredible animals. He was very sensitive to our needs and interests throughout and catered for them to the best of his ability. In all the places we stayed we received a warm welcome from our hosts and often wonderful stories about the challenges and joys of doing projects (such as the Rhotia valley children's home) and running a business in this unique and beautiful country.
