A once in lifetime magical experience
It was our first safari and we were really excited about it. Raymond was very helpful from the very beginning, and replied really fast all our questions. When we arrived in Arusha, he helped us to get a SIM card for internet connection. He also arranged all the transport: pick up and drop off from the airport. Regarding the safari it was truly an amazing experience and it was more magical than we expected. A once in life time experience. We had an amazing guide and drive Andrew who has a huge expertise on the wildlife and parks. With Andrew we managed to see all the big 5 which was on our list. We saw lions from very up close on all the 4 days of safari and it was truly magical. Andrew has 25 years of experience and has a huge respect for the animals. Regarding the food we had an amazing chef, Buga. He cooked for us everyday and we had a variety of dishes. We had 3 meals everyday and all the dishes were beyond our expectations, super delicious and fresh. I want to thank you Buga, Andrew and Raymond for the amazing experience, it was a childhood dream that came true and we are definitely coming back.

Perfect organization great safari
We had an absolutely amazing time on our safari in Tanzania with Zamunda tours! Saw so many animals and our guide Morgan was brilliant, really knowledgeable and great at finding the best spots to see all the animals.
The lodges was all great and the staff were very welcoming. Efficient organisation for flights from ZANZIBAR, airport transfers and accommodation managing different people on different schedules.

A WONDERFUL SAFARI EXPERIENCE¡¡¡¡
I had the most unforgettable experience with Precious Memories Safaris! Whenever we have contacted them, they have been very professional and have shown the reception according to our needs. I've visited Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, and each destination was hard to believe without seeing eye to eye. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly; he did everything to make our trip easy and comfortable. The atmosphere was great, and the wildlife was amazing. It's highly recommended for everyone!

Excellent Local Tanzania Tour Operator
We had an unforgettable trip through the famous Serengeti and Ngorongoro in Tanzania. We had decided to do the 5 days in the 2 areas which share the same ecosystem to minimize on the drives as well as maximize the relaxation aspect of the trip. As advised by Amos our trip designer and owner Migration Venture Africa it turned out to be the best trip of our lives.
Our guide Peter made the trip enjoyable as he was not in a rush. He took us to some the isolated sections of the vast Serengeti, far from other vehicles and we had great experience. In the Ngorongoro it was not possible to avoid the crowds but it was still fun as this was the closing after an epic three days of exploring Seregeti. It was excellent way to spend early summer vacation in Tanzania with a great locally operated tour company.

Genuinely emotional
We travelled as a family of 4 last year to coincide with my 50th birthday. Timing meant we were toward the end of the migration so I guess my expectation was somewhat managed in terms of what we would experience.
The team were very engaged during the planning phase, we were met at Kilimanjaro airport and looked after until ultimately leave Zanzibar at the end of the trip, with no real need to check in with Rob and the team as everything was running so smoothly.
Highlights
That time of year is quieter, what that meant was we had the open top Land Cruiser to ourselves every day which gave us absolute freedom to choose our day and what we hoped to see; but we needn’t have worried we saw everything and more.
We were based at Kaz Kaz, warmly welcomed well fed and well looked after by Omi and his team.
I thought people joked when they talked about lions outside your tent at night; it’s no joke and an incredible experience.
The wildlife encounters were thrilling but professionally and respectfully managed by our guide, a fountain of knowledge who worked tirelessly through our trip.
Brilliant, kids even got on with one another so it must have been top drawer!

Great tour
great. Anwar was a great guide and driver we saw the big 5, he knew a lot about animals and knew all the parks and where to go to see some animals. The tent in the middle of the Serengeti was simply incredible
Excellent planning
We saw Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwe and Zambian side. They included a visit to Livingstone museum that was quite informative. The combination of land and river Safari of Chobe National Park was spectacular. Finally the visit to Monde Village was us a whole different perspective about life in Zimbabwe. Our guides, Shelton, Mike, Figo, Simon among others, we're phenomenal.

They totally nailed it—super smooth, well-planned, and made the whole trip a breeze.
I recently went on a Masai Mara safari with Simian Safaris, and the experience was fantastic. Juliet, my point of contact, was incredibly professional and went above and beyond to ensure I felt safe and comfortable — she even came to the airport late at night to receive me personally, knowing I was a bit hesitant about arriving alone. She was also present the next morning to greet all the guests before the tour started. My guide, Bennett, made the first two days in Masai Mara exciting by keeping a sense of mystery about what I’d see next, even though he already knew through the walkie-talkie. He was patient, let me enjoy every moment, and made sure I got all the pictures I wanted. Juliet had recommended Marajambo Lodge in Masai Mara — a beautiful resort with great food, including Indian options, and an amazing stay overall. Even when there was a small hiccup during the trip, Juliet was quick to respond, even at 7 AM. I highly recommend Simian Safaris — they’re responsive, professional, and truly made the experience worth every penny. Give them a try!
