Best safari in Tanzania
First of all, Thank you Magda, Melek and team!
We went to Tanzania for our honeymoon. First a week of safari in world greatest wildlife parks and later on to Zanzibar. We were picked up at Kilimanjaro airport in the evening and went to our first lodge. Quite relaxed and the day after we had some time to see something of Arusha and we met our guide. He was GREAT! Along the week of safari you get to know each other and he knew so much about wildlife, Masai and Tanzania. We had great and interesting conversations. We saw Tanzania's greatest and most famous parks and wildlife in the most beautiful settings. We slept in the parks and during the nights you could hear the lions and hyaena's roaring and in the morning we woke up looking into big buffalo eye's. After a week of amazing sights and experiences we went off to Zanzibar, all arranged by flash safaris for a week of diving and relaxing! Magda found us s great spot with our private beach, dining in a treehouse or at the beach. We had a wonderful time in Tanzania with so many experiences. All this Thanks to the team of flash safaris.
Thanks again!

The experience of a lifetime and then some with the best staff.
Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived at the airport. We were taken to our lovely hotel, escorted in Nairobi, and taken on the most amazing safari. We saw all the big five animals and more. Our lodging was lovely. We even spent a wonderful evening when we returned with Kennedy, the owner. Gracious and wonderful person who is running a five star safari. Our guide was Joe and I hope he is still escorting. Hello Joe and kudos to you.
I really can't think of a more perfect trip where we were so totally taken care of. PS....There were just the three of us in our group. Sure wish I could do it again and it would definately be through Waymark Safaris.

Wedding to remember
We were invited to a wedding in the Serengeti. We'd never been to Africa before and didn't know anything about the company they'd selected--HM Safaris. As we were a big group, two vehicles and two driver/guides were needed. As soon as we landed and I saw an entire team waiting for us, I knew all was going to be ok.
Our guides are what really stand out. They went out of the way to make us feel comfortable and to ensure we had ample time to take photos, watch lion cubs play, etc. The ceremony was lovely and then we all did a drive through the Serengeti to celebrate. Would love to go back again for more than four days. Would also highly recommend Mbalageti, where the wedding was held. Everything was perfect there!
Fantastic gorilla experience and excellent tour operator
We did a 4-day gorilla safari in Rwanda, which included two gorilla treks and one golden monkey trek. It was a truly wonderful experience, very well planned and executed by Africa Adventures Safaris. Olive was extremely helpful, professional and prompt with her responses to our many questions while planning the trip. Enos was an excellent guide, with a deep knowledge of the region's wildlife, culture and history, which he shared freely.
Transportation and accommodations were excellent. We staying in the all-inclusive Mountain Gorilla View Lodge, which is very clean and comfortable. One warning: it gets VERY cold at night, around 40 F, and the lodge does not have heat. Bring very warm clothes and pajamas. Take your shower in the daytime when the air is much warmer.

Amazing Week across Kenya and Tanzania
With only a week to spend in on the trip, Edward and the team did a wonderful job of arranging for us to see the best parts of Lakes Naivasha and Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro Crater. Our guides, Ephraim and Beni, were wonderful - they had so much local knowledge to share about the areas visited and the animals and birds that we saw along the way. Nothing was too much trouble and they were always ready to answer questions and even helped me learn a few words of Swahili!
Love!
We were here for our honeymoon. The staff was very nice and friendly. Our room was beutiful, the spa was lovely and what is not to love about the food? they made our stay very memorable indeed. we plan to come back!

A trip and a half......
Pure awesomeness would best describe the experience we had on this trip with my family and friends to Maasai Mara game reserve. We will def do this again and again to other destinations. Thanks to team Kenya Walk for facilitating.

If it is Kenya or Tanzania, it has to be Africa Celebrity Tours
One of the best ground handlers and tour operator in Kenya and Tanzania. Hands on and would be there by the side of Guests at any point of time, which makes the difference, from rest of the crowd. The accommodations provided are right at the heart of the game reserves, with the best of facilities. superb vehicles along with drivers/guides who are more than willing to assist guests the best possible way, to make their trip, the most memorable. Unlimited safaris and unlimited drinking water are the key points.

Amazing experience, kept having to pinch ourselves
What an amazing experience. We went to two separate safaris with Hello Tanzania, Saadin and north Tanzania as well as had a driver organiser for us while staying in Zanzibar. We only got organised once we arrived in Tanzania and nothing was ever too much trouble. The personal attention we received made us feel special, it really was exceptional customer service. We didn't know what to expect and stayed in some amazing places, that exceeded our expectations. We especially loved 'Tent with a View' and 'Mapito Tented Camp' for location, style, size (we like small), quality of food and accommodation plus professional friendly staff. Totally 5 star!! We wished we stayed longer in both places!!! Our safaris were amazing because of the accommodation but also the experience of seeing so many animals so close - we really had to pinch ourselves that we were really there. What a memorable experience. Thank you Mwajabu for everything.

“An amazing safari experience from start to the end!”
Me and my husband went to safari in Tanzania (Serengeti, Tarangire and Lake Eyashi) in last November organised by The Story of Africa, and we had an amazing experience. From seeing the big cats and the big five were really fun and wonderful. Tuma our guide made a real effort for us to see as many animals as possible, including the hunting and samba mating! He also guide us with the story of those wildlife animals.
The chef Marko also very skilled and what a fun company - good food and we love his spaghetti :) Thank you also to Elizabeth who has been replying our emails back and forth in preparing our customise itinerary. We love the suggestion to visit the bush man and learn how they live and visit the iron process making by Maasai tribe in Lake Eyashi. I would suggest to The Story of Africa to improve their website or social media by uploading more client's pictures. But, overall we love to comeback and go safari again with The Story of Africa. Cheers!
