Excellent Safari, Incredible Guide and Service
Overall the safari was great from start to finish. Everything from the lodging, the food, the company, the locations scouted and the knowledge of our guide.
Below are the key areas we considered when rating our experience with Quest Horizon...
Knowledge of the guide of the area and environment - Very knowledgeable. Knowing endless facts and patient enough to repeat the same things over and over when each person asked the question in various forms. Knew animal and bird types, where to find the best view of the wildlife, able to scout locations of lion prides, spotting wildlife we could not even see with binoculars, etc
Camps - Everything is organized, clean and comfortable. We found that the camps surpassed even the hotels and top accommodations we have experienced in west and east Africa.
Food - Food at the camp and safaris were very good, it was not really what I would consider camping (accommodation or the food). It was a shock how good the food was prepared and presented given the fact you are in the “bush”. The packed lunches were specially made to accommodate dietary restrictions (we are super particular) and they were specially made and every request was granted with a smile on their face.

Wonderful Honeymoon in Tanzania/Zanzibar
A wonderful experience with Asante Safaris. They were so helpful even from the first email, answering all of our questions, customizing our trip to be perfectly suited for what we wanted, and providing hands on help and guidance while we were in Africa. We loved our driver, Honest, and would highly recommend him as you venture into Ngorongoro crater and the Serengeti. He will provide you with so much useful information and insight into what you are seeing and where to go. We couldn't imagine using another safari company!

Amazing
This company was professional from the first moment I made contact via email. My concerns and questions were addressed promptly and professionally, and every detail was covered prior to my departure. Upon arrival our driver was professional and informative. Never did we have any concern or question that was not addressed efficiently and to our satisfaction. Our accommodation exceeded our expectations, and the trek itself was phenomenal. We visited mountain gorillas in Volcanoes National Park, about a 2.5 hour drive from Kigali. This is not to be missed!
Wonderful service!
We were very pleased by the service that Mwajabu Sultan of Hello Tanzania provided. She took all the work out of our hands and everything went as planned. Pick ups were arranged in advance and were all on time. The suggested hotels were wonderful as well. Mwajabu provides all the information you need and is a good and warm communicator.

Fantastic holiday organised by professional agents!
Botswana is a beautiful country, rich in culture and wildlife. We experienced some of the most amazing sightings in the delta and stayed at one of the most professionally run lodges I have ever experienced in Africa. This was all thanks to Gondwana Tours and Safaris who put together our itinerary for us. They were equipped with all the knowledge of the activities and accommodation provided in the area to make the best choices for our holiday! They were so professional and responded to all my queries immediately. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them and would highly recommend Mark and his team!

My wife and I had an amazing experience with Tanzania Joy Tours!
They helped us organize an unforgettable honeymoon vacation: 6 day Kilimanjaro climb followed by a 7 day safari covering Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti (central and north). We selected them after contacting more than 10 other local companies via phone and email. Tanzania Joy Tours definitely stood out as the best one in terms of communication (prompt, very helpful and informative responses) and willingness to accommodate our specific wishes (as opposed to pushing their own options). Being competitive in terms of the cost was also a big factor.
Our 6 day Machame route climb was successful thanks to the great team they put together. Everyone was professional and supportive, making the grueling climb as pleasant as it can be. Big thanks to the chief guide Martin and assistant guide Ben for their excellent work, help, and encouragement when it was most needed!
The safari experience exceeded all our expectations! After spending a few days on the mountain we wanted to go with a medium to luxury accommodation options for the safari and Emmanuel helped to choose and book most excellent properties in Tarangire, Karatu, Central, and Northern Serengeti. But most importantly, we were lucky to have Dennis as our guide. Dennis has a degree in wildlife management and his deep level of knowledge coupled with patience and a great sense of humor made him a fantastic guide.
From start to finish, we had a great time in Tanzania and would wholeheartedly recommend Tanzania Joy Tours to anyone considering going there.

Kili trek
I did the Kili trek with Tanzania Joy Tours and had a great time. The guides are constantly checking everyone's ok, well-fed, drinking water and monitoring for altitude sickness. The food was high quality for a 7 day camping trip, the equipment, tents etc were all in good condition. The guides, cook and porters were friendly and easy to speak to. Was well run from start to finish, and they have a good reputation for treating their porters well.

Great service
Choosing a safari company on the Northern Tanzanian circuit is not an easy task, as there are MANY companies!
From the beginning I could tell that Tanzania Joy Tours is a company with a difference ... and Emmanuel attentive and prompt email responses which put one at ease regardless of your type of query.
The good experience continued upon arrival in Arusha and meeting Emmanuel and other Tanzania Joy Tour staff.
I was travelling solo through Tanzania and wanted to join a group of travellers to do the 5 day safari with – Tanzania Joy Tour helped with linking me up with a group.
And as for the safari itself ... its hard to go wrong with destinations like the Serengeti & Ngorongoro Crater - but Tanzania Joy Tour certainly made the trip a whole lot better through a fantastic guide (Fred) and the food which was well prepared by chef Omar

Definitely go for a second time!
Right from the moment you land at Nairobi to the end of the trip I was very well looked after by David Safari and his team. I saw almost all the animals and the food and stay at camp was very nice. The trop was well organised and comfortable. I definitely want to do it a second time.

enjoyable
We had a most enjoyable holiday to Tanzania with this safari travel company's portion being a part of the total. This Wonderland Tours company gave a excellent impression and answered any questions promptly.
