Enjoyable experience
I had an absolutely wonderful time on the safari. We were lucky enough to see four out of the Big Five, which was truly exciting. The toilet facilities were clean and convenient, and the lunch was delicious and satisfying. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I would gladly recommend it to my friends.

The Best Day to Feel the African Landscape
I was torn between going for a self-driving safari or joining a guided tour, but choosing the tour turned out to be the right decision.
On the tour, I encountered many animals, including the Big Five. There were probably animals I wouldn’t have seen on a self-drive safari. The guide was friendly and worked with other guides to share information and take us to where the animals were. Even if the animals were far away, they managed to find them and show us. Additionally, the tour vehicle had a higher vantage point, allowing us to see much farther. Surprisingly, the safari landscape had many bushes, and with a regular car, the bushes might have obstructed the view of the animals.
Thanks to the guide, we were able to focus on observing the animals and learned a lot of interesting facts, making it a truly satisfying experience.
I would also love to recommend this experience to my friends.

Amazing!!
It was my first trip to Tanzania, and I was able to enjoy it thanks to all the support I received. I missed two flight connections and had to ask the operator Clinton to adjust my schedule multiple times, but they accommodated me perfectly. I'm very grateful. Innocent and Elisher, who were my driver and guide for four days, were also very kind. I was so impressed that I was able to see elephants, lions, and giraffes up close on my long-awaited safari tour! It was amazing! I highly recommend it! I was also impressed by the guides' ability to spot animals. I definitely want to come again.

An Truly Unforgettable Experience
The sheer number of safari operators means it’s a bit of a minefield to choose the right one, especially as these trips can get quite expensive.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Silver Spark - I did a lot of research before deciding on our operator and am really pleased that we chose to entrust Abongo and Silver Spark with planning our safari itinerary.
It can be a bit daunting, sending money abroad, but from the outset, Abongo dealt with everything we required and adapted the itinerary as necessary.
Our driver was John - he was obviously a seasoned driver who knew how best to handle the sometimes tricky roads and terrain you have to deal with when in some of the National Parks.
The number of different animals we saw totally exceeded expectations. We were lucky enough to be in the Maasai Mara for the Great Migration, with gnus as far as the eye can see. We also spotted the Big 5 (a leopard albeit briefly).
If you’re considering doing a safari, I cannot recommend it enough. And if you’re struggling with trying to choose from the glut of safari operators, go with Silver Spark - you won’t regret it.

Top experience
Guide: Tarta was extremely helpful and very professional. An excellent driver and attentive to all our needs and passions (photography). Always very kind and smiling.
Tour: Everything was well organized. Perfect itinerary, except for the last day in Arusha – in our opinion, it could have included an alternative day (e.g., forest of Meru and waterfalls).

The stay was beyond our expectations!
I will recommend Porcupine Tours to every friend who comes to Tanzania. The reception staff is warm and lovely. The staff arranged the entire safari process very well, the food was delicious, and at the end they prepared dinner and accommodation for us at the hotel. At the time, we were worried about a problem with the hotel we had previously booked, but their actions directly solved our problem. When allocating rooms, they even considered the problem of the three of us staying together. It was really thoughtful and the price-performance ratio was super high. I recommend it!!!
The stay was beyond our expectations! From the cozy room layout to the thoughtful service, we could feel the hotel team's dedication everywhere. The staff's warm smiles and quick responses instantly melted away the fatigue of the journey. The environment was clean and comfortable, and the food was delicious.
