Very professional
First I rarely do reviews but felt good to give credit where it belongs.
When we began communications with safari zest tours we knew we had made the right choice. They are extremely knowledgeable and provided us with tailor made tour which ticked all of our desires at affordable and fare prices
We appreciate how Kevin and Onesmus did everything in person, from warm welcome at the airport, unique item in the gifts bag and clear plans for accommodation, transport and game drives . Kevin called us every morning and evening checking if we are okay and satisfied with the services and if they were any challenges. He kept reassuring us that he's just a phone call away
Onesmus was super good. He didn't just spot the animals but also narrates different stories about different communities and the history of the land
The jeeps were very comfortable and included WiFi and charging ports
The accommodation were beyond our expectations and we enjoyed our the luxury tempted camp
The perfect location to base ourselves
We are truly grateful for the memories this trip has provided us we look forward to our next adventure
Thump up!

Very good value for money !
I contacted Steve&Richard Safaris for a day-trip to Tsavo. Steve was very pro reactive and friendly, and I spent a wonderful day at the Tsavo. He gave many explanations and let me take pictures and look at the animals without any stress...We stayed 2 additional hours in the Tsavo, as I enjoyed looking at the elephants. The price is very fair for the day. Let me recommand Steve&Richard Safaris! Thanks Steve!

The best safari :)
We went on a 3 days safari in Serengeti and Ngorngoro conservation area. Our 3 days safari was an amazing experience, we wish to stay even longer. In just 3 days we have seen so many animals - even baby lions, lions who have caught a zebra and some lions feasting with a buffalo, cheetah, leopard and so much more. Our guide was the best, he knew so much about wildlife - about animals and as well about flora of Tanzania (which is the best ;)) He also took care for everything and that everyone is feeling ok.
Also the food was really delicious. The chef was cooking really good and for every meal there was a lot of choice, so everyone can find something for him.
Overall, everything was perfect. All the staff of Surica are really nice and ready to help you, even before your safari starts. They even went with us to the pharmacy as we didn't feel well. So I would recommand this tour to everyone.

The perfect safari
This safari was perfect. We saw a lot of animals and we were really lucky to see baby lions, leopard, cheetas, girafes, elephants and so much more. Some of the animals came very close so we took some very good photos.
The food was also delicious and we can choose between a lot of different options and everyday was different food.
Our tour guide was Damian and he did a good job. If we have any question he always knew the answer. You can tell by his work that he loves doing it and he know a lot about the every animal and also plants. He was also funny so we were all in a good mood all the time.
I will recoment this safari to everyone because its worth.

Kind, professional, knowledgeable and fun team
I climbed both Mount Kilimanjaro and Meru with Miles to Smile and had an incredible experience on both trips! My guide, Magnus, was very experienced and professional but also full of energy and extremely supportive. I climbed Kilimanjaro alone and had a blast with the whole team. I felt safe and never alone with such kind and fun people. The food was also delicious! While in a tent on the mountain, our chef prepared a range of impressive and diverse warm meals. On the logistical side I felt very well taken care of, and every part of the trip went smoothly. The Miles to Smile team gave me clear lists of what I needed and was able to lend me anything I did not have (including tent, sleeping bag and summit coat and pants). Their equipment was of very high quality. I 100% recommend both Kilimanjaro and Meru with Miles to Smile, and I already look forward to going with them again!

Excellent service through out!
This is our second time in Kenya and was our first time in Tanzania. We had 12days Serengeti, Maasai Mara, Tarangire, Amboseli Park. The safaris were all across from Maasai culture, game drive both in the evening and morning. I enjoyed morning game drive and a ballon ride in Maasai Mara reserve. Abongo was very kind, and went to great lengths to give us city tour, across the street. I do appreciate the reliability of Abongo, even when we were crossing the border of Tanzania and Kenya, he was present. I would not have expected that for a budget safari with Silver Spark Africa, will enjoy that much. Thank you Silver Spark!

Incredible trekking adventure to Kilimanjaro and safari across Tanzania thanks to this local company
Incredible adventure and experience thanks to Zanzi Trekking and Safaris. We contacted them to do the Kilimanjaro trek via the Machame route and also to go on a safari. It's the perfect choice if you want to support a genuine local company.
For the trekking, we couldn't have asked for a better team to achieve it. Justin was our guide, an amazing person with deep cultural knowledge, great conversation skills, and who made the trek more enjoyable. His mountain experience was crucial; without him and his assistant Nestory, we couldn't have reached the summit, as they understand altitude needs perfectly and provide the necessary advice to keep going and ensure safety if needed.
The adventure was a team effort. Besides the guides, Steven the chef provided everything we needed to stay energized, and the meals were delicious. Every time we arrived at camp, everything was prepared thanks to the porters (kilifighters) Dominic, Peter, Lazaro, Kelvin, Kelvin II, and Dula. They took care of everything, allowing us to focus on the experience.
It's not just a trekking experience but also an opportunity to meet locals and learn about their lives, enriching culturally and personally throughout the journey.
We also enjoyed a private safari, tailored to our preferences and requests. We visited the main national parks, guided by Ruben in a safari jeep with a open roof for perfect wildlife viewing. Ruben was an excellent guide, ensuring our safety, communicating with other drivers to spot every animal. It was unforgettable. Abu, the chef, accompanied us during our three days camping in the Serengeti.
In summary, Zanzi Trekking and Safaris is a fantastic option if you're looking to climb Kilimanjaro and experience a safari in Tanzania, all while supporting a local business and its workers and families. Thanks to Honest, the owner, for organizing this unforgettable journey.

We just returned from a tour of Kruger national park with Eddy (the happy chappy)! What can I say, just wow! Eddy made the tour so entertaining and educational showing us all that Kruger had to offer while sharing his wealth of information about the animals along the way. Thank you MoAfrica tours

Well organized and dynamic with great knowledge of the Okavango
We only spent 2 nights in the Okavango and our guide made sure that we made the most of it. In addition to the glamping experience, he ensured that we get a feel for the animals and birds. I especially loved eating lunch next to the elephants! The private chef was also very good with dinners. Finally, adapting to our needs and priorities was much appreciated!
