Seamless
We all had an excellent time and wished we could have stayed much longer. There were no problems at all except for the children fighting over which beautiful bed to sleep in. I will not hesitate to recommend Cedarberg.
All the accommodation and activities exceeded our expectations. Would have liked to have spent more time at the various accommodations but we were too busy!!
We enjoyed our stay at Muchenje in Botswana the most. An extra couple of days here would have been blissful.
We had seamless holiday. Great advice and great service.

Trip of a life time!!
the fact that Regional Tours didn't have a trip adviser review gave us pause but after contacting other customers and hotels, I was reassured and I am glad sure that we went with Regional. All of the accommodations were amazing. Our guide who is a contractor was the best guy ever. Peter Mmbando, I am sure that if you request him that they could figure a way out to get him. This guy was so knowledgeable, curious of other safari trucks, and overly accommodating. You will witness some rude behavior by tourists and tour guides alike but Peter was the definition of class. I traveled with 5 wonderful ladies whom are all friends, by the end of our trip, Peter was family and there was not a dry eye among all any of them. the animals are amazing. Prior to the start of our trip we visited an orphanage and delivered some items. I would implore you to stop even if just for 5 minutes to show these children that you care. One of teh best experiences of my life and very humbling. There are a number of us that will be using Regional Tours again and will be seeing Peter again.

unforgettable trip
I went for my first ever safari to the Mara and it was really one of the best trips I've ever been on. The staff were very professional and informative and everything went as planned. The driver /guide ensured that we got to see the big 5 and even get close enough to take amazing photos and this was obviously very exciting for me and my family. The accommodation was top notch and the entire trip went smoothly from start to finish. It was truly an unforgettable experience and we owe it to First Choice for assisting in making it that way!

The tour is slow, the guide, shows everything, lots of interesting details.

Safari with David Maro - Kili Slope
Mr David Maro highly recommended on some forums as one of the best safari guides to Tanzania so we have decided to book with him our 10 days private safari tour. Now after completing our safari which was breathtaking we can say that the huge success of this trip was a lot to do with David professionalism, extensive knowledge, his great sense of humour and kind nature. David is a super nice person and a great driver. We recommend David without hesitation.

Superb experience
Very prompt and good service. The safari on the Governor's Camp was superb, accommodation and food was way above our expectation. The travel was smooth and on time. We recommend Vacay Holiday to everybody who would want to do a safari in Masai Mara area.

Stunning safari experience
Our safari in Ruaha National Park with Breakdown Safaris was just an extraordinary experience. First of all, Kathy and Fan are really great people - very warm and friendly, well organised. Kathy is a great driver, Fan's knowledge about animals, birds and nature in general is impressive! There's no question He wouldn't be able to answer, in our opinion. Everything was perfectly organised, from the very beginning to the very end of whole trip. We felt taken care of, safe and comfortable all the time. We saw a lot of wonderful and unexpected things in Ruaha not only because of some luck and circumstances, but also because everything was done for us and with respect to our needs. We had as much time as we needed for watching, taking pictures, resting etc. For sure Breakdown Safaris is the company, we can highly recommend to anyone who appreciate individual and friendly treatment, professionalism, well organised great experience of safari while everything that needs to be done is just to enjoy animals and nature and have a lot of fun. We are already sure that we'll be back for another stunning safari in Tanzania - of course with no one else then Breakdown Safaris. Kathy, Fan we thank you again for all you made for us, for the very best time we had with you during this short (unfortunately!) but fantastic trip!
Nasze safari w Parku Narodowym Ruaha z Breakdown Safaris było fantastycznym i niezwykłym doświadczeniem. Przede wszystkim prowadzący je Kathy i Fan są naprawdę wspaniałymi ludźmi - ciepłymi, przyjacielskimi, świetnie zorganizowanymi. Kathy jest doskonałym kierowcą, zaś wiedza Fana o zwierzętach, ptakach, wszystkim co związane z naturą jest bardzo imponująca. Odnieśliśmy wrażenie, że nie ma pytania, na które nie znałby odpowiedzi. Cała wyprawa była doskonale zorganizowana, od początku do końca, o wszystko zadbano. Czuliśmy się bezpiecznie i komfortowo przez cały czas. Zobaczyliśmy mnóstwo cudownych i nieoczekiwanych rzeczy w parku Ruaha, po części ze względu na szczęście i okoliczności, ale w dużej mierze również dzięki temu, że wszystko odbywało się z uwzględnieniem naszych potrzeb i szacunkiem do nich. Mieliśmy tyle czasu, ile tylko potrzebowaliśmy i chcieliśmy na obserwowanie zwierząt, robienie zdjęć, odpoczynek itd. Zdecydowanie Breakdown Safaris to firma, którą możemy z czystym sumieniem gorąco polecić każdemu, dla kogo istotne są indywidualne i przyjacielskie podejście, profesjonalizm, świetnie zorganizowane safari, w trakcie którego nie trzeba się martwić o nic, a wyłącznie cieszyć i napawać obcowaniem z naturą i zwierzętami. Jesteśmy przekonani, że wrócimy do Tanzanii, do innych parków narodowych i na inne safari, ale z całą pewnością również zorganizowane przez Breakdown Safaris!

Trip of a Lifetime. Wedding, Mountain and Beach
Having just arrived back in Canada last week, I am ready for Tanzania again. My new wife and I began planning a trip last year, to hopefully get married in Tanzania. When we contacted Java Safaris they took all our needs into consideration. From arranging our marriage in Arusha National Park, to climbing and sucessfully summitting Mount Meru, to our wonderful Honey moon relaxation in Zanzibar, Java Safaris excelled at it all. Our wedding was a dream come true, attention to detail in every aspect of the trip was far above my expectations. Catherine was such a great help with the costing of the complete trip and not to mention the endless research for the perfect Honeymoon spot. My thanks to everyone at Java-Safaris for the commitment to excellence in all respects.
This was my 4th trip to Tanzania and probably the most memorable trip I have ever taken anywhere in the world, bar none. To see some pics of our great experience go to the Java-Safaris Facebook page. www.facebook.com/javasafaris. Thank you Catherine and the whole crew for such an amazing experience. We look forward to our 5 year anniversary trip in 2021!!!

Great experience! Would definitely recommend it to others!
Better late then never. When we got back from our trip, we more or less were sucked into normal life but thought many times of writing this review because we loved every minute of it and think back often. We went on a three day Safari with Afrishare and it was really great! We had a tight schedule of travelling and really wanted to do a safari. Because nobody had booked for the same period, Ibrahim did his best to find extra people which would lower the price (group instead of a private tour). Thankfully he found one extra person, so it was more or less a private tour for a group-tour price :) Ibraham was very helpful and quick in his replies always. In the very beginning, we actually remember that we were doubting if it was all real, as we read so many good reviews for this budget trip that we could not believe it was real. So we promised ourselves to mention this in our review for other people who have doubts like us. It is all true, the value for money, the food and accommodation and good safari-car with a great guide in it. Our guide and driver Fredy was really nice and explained us a lot. We felt in good hands and had a lot of fun together! We actually saw 4 of the big 5 :) Sadly the leopard wasn't willing to show himself :( The camp where we slept (Heaven Nature) was very good for a budget tour. More than we expected, we were actually surprised. Good tents and the shower was more or less warm. After dining a few drinks on the terrace to end the day (yes the sell beers!). We can truly recommend going on a safari trip with Afrishare! Thank you Ibrahim, Fredy and the cook (sorry forgot his name).
