Amazing experience!!
My boyfriend and me always wanted to go on a Safari in Tanzania, we have great expectations and the were totally fulfilled. We visit Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Serengeti and although 3 of them are different, each has its own beauty. It is a trip that I totally recommend. Thanks to Shemeji we had Fredy as a guide, who was wonderful explaining to us everything, answering all the questions and helping us with everything that he could.
Thanks so much to help us to had such an amazing Safari :)

Safari adventures in 5 of the National Parks of Kenya with a variety of accomodations.
The main strength of African Breeze is the owner Cate....who is determined to provide the best possible experience on each safari. She is excellent at communicating by email in advance, by text and phone in Kenya and in person....she was always available and would follow through with every plan that we made - organizing insurance coverage for the safari and purchasing bus tickets for us and dropping them off where we were staying even after our safari was finished. Indeed she felt like our guardian angel while we were in Kenya and always seemed to be there when we needed her.
Cate has the daunting task of coordinating drivers and visitors and dealing with the unexpected.
We had been expecting to be on safari with another couple but we never got to meet them as they postponed their trip at the last minute. We ended up on our safari with a private driver for the same cost. Spending 7 days together we learned about our driver and he would answer our questions about everything we saw. He admitted that he never knew what each day would hold in store for us....but there was never a shortage of animals or sights to see. Our vehicle was comfortable and we felt very safe. Our only suggestion was that a cooler with cold water would have been nice to have along...also to help keep our picnic lunch cool. We stayed in 4 different locations all well organized and comfortable but each one was unique so an interesting variety. The food ranged from fantastic to very good.... the only exception was the one day picnic lunch which was poor.
We enjoyed our initial 7 day safari so much that we used African Breeze again for a 2 day/1 night trip to Amboseli National Park. Cate organized for us to stay at a perfect camp and provided us with an excellent driver who was very passionate about Kenya and willing to share his knowledge and understanding of the country.
African Breeze made all of our Safari Dreams come true and we are very grateful to Cate for her skills and for her kindness to us.

Over the top wonderful!
Fabulous tour with Aardvark Safaris Tanzania. Our group spent the better part of two weeks visiting Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Oldupai Gorge, the Serengeti, and Lake Eyasi. All our accommodations were unique, welcoming and clean, including four nights at Katikati, a temporary camp in the Serengeti, where we dined in the open air and slept in canvas tents with toilets and showers. Driver guides Augustine and David were superb, with astounding knowledge of birds and mammals. Augustine went out of his way to make sure this trip exceeded our expectations. We've been on safari before. Compared to Aardvark, that earlier safari was more like visiting the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park. This was a true adventure, and we were in the best of hands.

Our vacation was the best ever! The communications were great and our tour guide was well prepared abs experienced. He ensured we were able to see the big five. The living arrangements were very clean and the service and food was exceptional. I will definitely be referring this company to everyone I know.

Northern Circuit - Tanzania
We spent 5 days in Tanzania during the first week of January 2017. Despite this being the "off season" (not during the Great Migration), we saw abundant wildlife and felt that our experience was truly 5 star. We visited Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park. We saw not only the "Big Five", but countless giraffes, zebra, wildebeest, hippos, gazelles, countless varieties of birds - along with over 50 lions, elephant, African buffalo, cheetah, leopard, and more. The scenery was phenomenal - looked just like the professional travel photos we had seen in advance. Our safari included a visit to a Masai village and Oldupai Gorge (worth it). We stayed in the Serena lodge chain (great accommodations, and lodges blended nicely into the scenery). The roads are mostly dirt and very bumpy - be prepared - and our decision to drive one way and fly back to Arusha on a small regional plane (12 seater) was a good choice. Our guide/driver was highly knowledgable about the area and the wildlife, was a terrific driver, and made our trip. This was our first trip to Africa and the decision to select Tanzania as our safari destination was spot on - would definitely recommend. We travelled in and out of Kilimanjaro Airport and the air and ground service was great. Before you go, invest in a very good pair of binoculars!

Reviewed 1 week ago
The day started promptly with a very comfortable vehicle turning up on time. Little extras like water and binoculars were greatly appreciated. Our driver and guide for the day was Themba who was fantastic!!
He was so informative and great fun to be with. His knowledge and enthusiasm was infectious both on the journey there and on Safari. He worked tirelessly to find the animals and we saw 4 out the Big Five. Thank you Themba for making day unforgettable.

Wonderful experience
This was our second safari with Flash and we loved it. Every detail was well planned by Flash and they were prompt in answering my many e-mails. We felt very confident using Flash again after our first safari went so well with an excellent itinerary and with an experienced guide. This time we spent 11 nights in tented lodges and camps selected by Flash and they all exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Loy, was the best! He was warm, personable, had a sense of humor and keen eyes for spotting wildlife. He was very experienced and shared his Maasai culture with us adding to our experience. I can highly recommend Flash having booked with them twice and will definitely use them again in the future.

The most amazing Maasai Mara trip with best experience ever.
The February 4Th 2017 trip with HomeAway safaris so far is the best thing this year. Right from the most understanding driver and tour guide who helped us enjoy the trip by getting in touch with his game drive team made us get a glimpse of what we anticipated in the trip; the wildlife, scenery and and camping experience was all amazing.
I wont hesitate to have another trip in the coming months to other destinations with home away safaris.
Thanks for your hospitality.
