Everything from A to Z was perfectly organized
To begin with we started with a briefing before my safari. This was done by Joan and he explained everything very clearly what to expect and what to bring. The next day at 8, the guide picked me up and my 2 day trip began. Together with other travellers we went first to Tarangire, slept in a beautifull lodge and the day after went to Ngorongoro. Everything was perfect. From the car, to the guide and the food. We saw so much and about everything our guide was able to tell something. Also congrats to the chef to make us these delicious meals. After all of this I was very tired, but alsof very happy. After this experience I had a debriefing with Daniel to improve the service even more for future guests.

An Experience Abroad That Was Meaningfully Legit
I wanted to travel, experience, and learn about a developing country through the eyes of a volunteer. I wanted to travel somewhere and have an experience abroad that was meaningful. I didn’t want to be a tourist, but be someone who could bring something to a community in need and gain something from the local community members as well.
I soon decided that Uganda, the Pearl of Africa, was where I needed to go as a volunteer. Go Volunteer Africa was the perfect organization to go with and it was indeed. My experience volunteering at the orphanage with Go Volunteer Africa was wonderful.
On my first day as a volunteer I was taken to an orphanage which is part of the organization. As we pulled up to the orphanage, all the children ran out to greet me, fighting to hold my hand. I spent some time playing and interacting with the children and then spoke with the Director of the Orphanage.
I learned that most of the children were found on the street or in garbage dumps and brought to the orphanage. The woman who cares for all the orphans, is a wonderful woman and she has beautiful heart.
I am both happy and sad as I am about to leave the orphanage as I see both happiness and sadness in the eyes of the children when I tell them, I am about to go back home. My mind is flooded with a mix of emotions. I feeling nothing but pure happiness as I hope, I have contributed positively to their lives. Thanks Go Volunteer Africa for this great experience and can’t wait to see the children again.

Amazing safari experience with Avocet!
We took a private 3-day safari to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire with Waldon, who was an incredible guide! He was so knowledgeable about the animals, the different environments, and the history of each location. We saw elephants, lions, buffalo, rhinos (from very far away), ostriches, hippos, a ton of birds, lots of monkeys, zebras. It was all amazing and one of the best experiences of my life! Jeff at Avocet welcomed us at his office before we set off to outline our trip for us. He was really friendly and accommodating. We felt so taken care of our entire trip. All our meals were delicious and the lodge we stayed in near Lake Manyara was clean and comfortable, and in a gorgeous little setting -- a perfect place to relax at the end of the day. They even had some African drumming, dancing, and acrobats at night. I can't recommend Avocet enough. They really take care of you throughout the entire trip and Waldon is the best guide -- funny, kind, and knows just about everything about the parks you visit.

We had an amazing time at the National Park and a dream come true
We had an amazing time at the National Park and a dream come true.Timeline Travel Tours provides a hassle-free and luxurious experience. The park's vast landscape and incredible wildlife diversity left us speechless. Highlights include lion tracking and viewing herds of elephants at waterholes. The lodge offers impeccable service and comfortable accommodation. It was a trip of a lifetime, perfectly executed by a team that clearly understands the magic of safari. I recommend Timeline Travel

An amazing safari with some wonderful people
There were only 2 of us on this 9-day camping safari in the Okavango Delta. The arrangements were easy and they were very clear about what to expect. Mark worked with me to design the itinerary we wanted. The price was good for what was basically a private safari. We had a cook, a driver/guide and a general helper. They were all good at what they did but also fun and flexible. They took very good care of us. We really enjoyed our time with them.
Camping was comfy: a stand-up tent, cots with clean, newish bedding, more blankets than we needed (it was pretty hot until the rain started). The bathroom was rustic but functional. We camped in 4 different locations so as to see more different habitats. Every time we changed sites, the guys would break down, pack up and set up at the new one, all while we were out on safari or sitting in our chairs watching (honestly, we sometimes felt guilty). The food was plentiful and very delicious, especially because Shine was cooking over a campfire.
The wildlife and the birds were everything we hoped for. Kem asked us at the beginning what we wanted to see and tried to give us the experience we were looking for. He knew where to find water which seemed to be the best places to see wildlife, and 3 of our camps were very close to water. Many nights we heard the hippos walking past our tent. And one day a pack of wild dogs ran through our campsite chasing impala. We were able to watch them hunt and even catch prey.
Overall, it was a great experience and I highly recommend this company. Thanks to you all!

An Incredible and Unique Safari Experience
If you're looking for a safari that goes beyond just seeing the animals, look no further than Shammah Wonders Safari! Our 1-day adventure in Nyerere National Park was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to this exceptional company and their incredible team of guides. From the moment we set off, it was clear that Shammah Safari is in a league of its own.
What truly sets them apart is their team of guides, who not only have an encyclopedic knowledge of the wildlife but also possess a rare gift for making the experience both educational and incredibly fun. Our guides—Deodat Kimario, Maarouf, and Elihakim—were a perfect blend of professionalism, humor, and warmth. They didn't just take us on a tour; they invited us into the world of the animals, explaining everything from behavior and habits to fascinating facts that most tourists never hear.
Deodat, in particular, had an almost magical ability to spot wildlife from miles away and provide deep insights into the natural surroundings. Maarouf had us laughing every few minutes with his witty commentary, while Elihakim's calm demeanor and attention to detail made the whole experience feel incredibly personal. Their camaraderie was contagious, and it was clear that they genuinely love what they do.
The knowledge these guides shared about the animals—everything from the smallest birds to the largest predators—was unparalleled. It wasn’t just a simple “there’s an elephant” moment; it was a fully immersive experience, where they explained the dynamics of the animal kingdom, from predator-prey relationships to fascinating cultural aspects of the species we encountered.
Beyond the animals, Shammah Wonders Safari went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, engaged, and entertained the entire time. They provided us with great snacks, took care of all the logistics, and truly created a welcoming atmosphere that made the day feel like we were on a private, tailor-made adventure. They even made sure we had the perfect vantage points for every sighting, so we never missed a moment of the action.
If you want a safari that’s not just about checking animals off a list, but about gaining a deep appreciation for the incredible wildlife and the people who know it best, then Shammah Wonders Safari is the company to choose. The personal touches, the humor, and the profound knowledge of the guides made this an experience we will cherish for a lifetime.
Another great perk? The price! For everything that was included—flights, the safari, snacks, and a day packed with memorable experiences—Shammah Wonders Safari offers unbeatable value. It’s rare to find such a high-quality safari at such a competitive price.
We can't thank the team enough for making this safari so unique and unforgettable. We'd definitely visit again, and we can't recommend Shammah Wonders Safari highly enough to anyone looking to explore the beauty of Tanzania in the best possible way!
