Great trip
We did a 3 night safari with 1 night and a gorilla trek in Uganda and 2 nights with 1 gorilla trek and 1 golden monkey hike in Rwanda. I would definitely recommend this operator. We were met at the airport as promised and the entire trip was just as described. The Moountain Lodge in Uganda was very rustic but perfect for our needs. The lodge in Uganda was alittle more upmarket but still fairly simple. Both were more than adequate for this type of trip. The treks can be very physically demanding so be in good physical condition. The experience of seeing these magnificent animals up close and in their natural surrounding was a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide David was friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend!!

Fun and Fantastic!
This was my 4th time going on a 1-day wildlife safari with Tanzania Choice Safaris. (Not counting the weekend they booked me into Zanzibar!) Each time, the service has been professional, reliable, and friendly - both for the planning, as well as on the tour itself.
Kakasii and Brenda, along with their other expert guides, provide lots of information - and lots of smiles - to make the safari experience beyond compare. Highly recommended!

The perfect African safari
We enjoyed a sunset and a sunrise safari in Tarangire National Park and both were excellent. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and entertaining. He tailored his approach with us depending on our interests and told us so many stories about his time as a guide! Our safari jeep was great and seated six comfortably, not that we sat down for much of it.
We spent one night at a campsite in the park, which was basic but comfortable enough, and we heard lions roaring nearby to our tents as we slept. The food was great, it would be impossible to go hungry. We saw only a handful of other tourists whilst we were there.
Highlights were the number of elephants (we saw so many!), the baobab trees, extensive bird life, a trio of cheetahs and driving alongside a charging herd of wildebeest.

Amazing Experience
My first safari trip to Tanzania involved a 14 day adventure organized and guided by Justin and Alex with Tembo Adventure & Safaris. We went in mid February. The trip lived up to all my expectations and the service and knowledge of Justin/Alex was outstanding. Our group stayed at 4 different lodges as we toured Ngorongoro, Ndutu, Serengeti and even a few bonus days on Zanzibar. All accommodations were a little bit different but all were amazing. Tea in bed in the morning listening to the birds and roar of lions in the distance as the sun comes up - doesn't get any better! Each game drive took us to different places and we saw it all. Justin's knowledge of the area and its wildlife was outstanding. We went to some out-of-the-way places to get away from the busier vehicle areas and were treated to some of the best wildlife viewing and photography opportunities one could ever want. Everything was well organized and went off without any problems even the picnics out in the middle of nowhere. Justin's good sense of humour and stories made every day one to remember. I would highly recommend Tembo Adventure/Safaris for anyone wanting to see this amazing country.

A safari beyond expectations
My wife and I have been on a private 10 day safari trip with Epic in four of the northern parks of Tanzania: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater and Serengeti. Our friendly guide Temba has a outstanding knowledge of the wildlife and their habitat. He was always keen to spot rare animals and happy to give us (detailed) information. Thanks to him we were able to see the big five. We have even seen over eleven rhinos! In my opinion, Temba is also familiar with the favorite spots of the animals in the parks. Therefore we have been able to watch the animals before other cars showed up.
The trip was also well organized by Epic Tours. Temba picked us up at the airport in time and arranged everything we needed. Also the meals which were prepared by Peter (the cook of Epic Tours) are outstanding and a good combination of the local and international cuisine. Furthermore, Epic Tours responded very fast on our e-mails in the planning stage of the trip.
In short, this trip highly succeeded our expectations and has left us with astonishing pictures.

Amazing safari trip!
We had such an amazing time exploring national parks of Northern Tanzania on safari in January 2016. This was hands down the best trip either of us have been on! From start to finish, everything was so well planned and executed, that we never felt any of that normal vacation stress. Even when there was a minor issue with the weather and an outdoor activity, our itinerary was re-arranged so that we could still fit everything in.
All of our accommodations were absolutely incredible. We could not have picked them better ourselves! We especially loved how small each one was and how the staff/managers seemed genuinely interested in making our stay as memorable as possible.
In planning the trip, Altezza was incredibly responsive and worked with us to tweak our itinerary to fit in everything we wanted and some awesome suggestions we had not thought of (like the truly amazing experience with maasai tribe after Ngorongoro crater). We had a fantastic experience working with this travel company and will not hesitate to use them again for our next trip to Africa, which will hopefully be very soon!

The Right people at the Right place
Safari Care has organized us an incredible trip! The staff were kind, professional and charming. They were easy to communicate with and chose the best accommodation in a breathtaking lodge. Our tour guide was very professional with a vast knowledge of the natural and wildlife habitat. We really appreciate Safari Care for the unforgettable experience and will definitely recommend them to everyone who wants to explore and enjoy Tanzania the way its supposed to be. Thumbs up!

Amazing experience & perfect 4 day safari in Tanzania
We used Easy Travel for our recent trip to Tanzania for safari in the northern circuit and I could not have asked for a more perfect trip. Our trip consisted of a one day "catch-up" in Arusha, followed by a 4 day safari and then 5 days in Zanzibar. Many months ago when we were planning our trip, Caudence, our Easy Travel rep, was so helpful and very quick to respond to my every email request. I had done independent research on hotels and I knew almost exactly where wanted to stay, and Caudence took that information and customized the most seamless and perfect trip while still helping to keep it within our budget. She was so friendly and even went out of her way to meet us in person at our hotel when we arrived. Our anniversary and my birthday were both occurring during our trip, and Caudence went out of her way to have special surprise treats for us at our hotels on those days, which made it even more memorable and amazing.
Our guide for the safari was Adrian and he was absolutely wonderful. He could not have been more friendly and flexible, ensuring that during our 4 day safari we saw every animal and site that we could whilst not tiring us to complete exhaustion. I highly recommend Adrian as a guide - he is so knowledgeable about the land, people, animals, and culture - and he made for the perfect, unmatchable, first-time safari experience for us.
In Zazibar, our guide from the airport to hotel was Zamir. He was so friendly that upon meeting him we asked him if he would take us on an additional guided tour of Stone Town on our day of departure (which we had not previously planned). He was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide - and we would not have enjoyed our afternoon Stone Town if it weren't for him.
Our whole trip was absolutely hassle and stress free. From the time we landed until the time we departed we did not have to worry about anything. Highly recommend Easy Travel for the most perfect safari experience! We love everyone that we worked with - thank you so much!!!
