One of the best experiences we have ever had
In April 2025, we went on a 3-day safari in Tanzania with Akondo Adventures – and it was truly the trip of a lifetime! From the start, everything was organized perfectly: We received our domestic flight tickets even before our journey began, and the hotel transfer was punctual and smooth – we were picked up early to make the most of the day.
Our guide, Mr. Rama, was absolutely fantastic. He shared so much knowledge, took the time to stop wherever there were animals to observe, and made the whole experience incredibly special. We were lucky enough to spot all of the Big Five, and Mr. Rama answered every single question our 10-year-old son had with great care and joy. He really went above and beyond for us.
One of the absolute highlights was the hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti – a breathtaking, magical experience! The lodges selected by the agency were stunning – every one of them comfortable, clean, and full of warm, welcoming people. We felt safe and at home the entire time.
I celebrated my birthday on April 9th, and in the evening the team at the lodge surprised me with a cake and sang for me – all arranged by Akondo Adventures. It was incredibly touching and unforgettable.
We visited Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater – each one unique and awe-inspiring. On the final day, my husband wasn't feeling well, and Mr. Rama kindly took us to a pharmacy, helped with translation, and made sure we got the right medication – such personal care is rare and so appreciated!
To top it all off, the agency’s director personally came to the airport in Arusha to check in with us and say goodbye before we returned to Zanzibar – a truly special gesture.
Great value, fantastic communication, unforgettable memories.
We wholeheartedly recommend Akondo Adventures – thank you for this incredible journey!

Top notch operator
The trip was well organised. With timely feedback from the operator to the tour itself. The safari was our highlight with front row views of Africa's wildlife. We saw all the big five thanks to Kush our guide. The accomodation too was amazing and the African cuisine great. Thank you team Axis and Kush for your impeccable services. My family will forever remember this trip in nostalgia.

Amazing feels like family
The game safari were awesome, but even if we went for 2 hour just to get in habit of safari, our guide John showed us all big 5 and gave time and perfect angles for photo graph. The guides hotels and mainly the safari is value for money.

Amazing and informative guides, made our safari experience what it was!
I would highly recommend Unveiled Tanzania Safaris to anyone looking to do a quality, but affordable, safari in Tanzania. Over my four day safari with them, I had the opportunity to see Tarangire Park, the world famous Serengeti Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater. During each of these days, my tours were led by a guide who informed us about all of the animals and the history of the parks. Two of the nights were spent camping, which was an adventure in and of itself. The campgrounds are completely safe and monitored by safari rangers, but you can expect to hear (and maybe even see!) wild animals during the day and night! Another highlight of this safari experience was the food. All of our meals were home cooked by a wonderful chef, and there was always the perfect amount for our large group of 6-7. These meals gave us an opportunity to try authentic Tanzanian food.
Overall, I would recommend Unveiled Tanzania Safaris to anyone looking to do a meaningful and enjoyable safari in Tanzania. If and when I come back to the country for my next safari, I plan to rebook with them!

Philip was on the ball, always checking in and following up and helped with all my funny requests
What a lovely experience! They made sure we were collected and helped at the airport for our connection. The resort we visited was just amazing. All my food requirements for travel were sorted, I am thrilled, and they kept in touch throughout. Will recommend

Amazing tour to see the essential beauties of Mikumi
We spent 4 days with our guide Apollo as a couple in Mikumi National Park. Apollo was extremely knowledgable about... everything. Wildlife, daily life in Tanzania and beyond. It was an amazing experience and we got to see a wide array of wild animals in Mikumi. Baboons, impalas, zebras, gnus, hippos, lions and we even had a direct encounter and road cross with a lovely giraffe and a family of elephants! The hike in Nudzungwa mountains revealed one of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen.
The (somewhat challenging) hike made the view from top of the Nudzungwa waterfalls even more rewarding.
Starting from the warm welcome and punctual pick up to the goodbye and drop off everything worked out smoothly. The accomodation in Camp Bastian is extremely luxurious for the local standards and everyone tries to make you feel very valued. The ventilation, food and comodities were splendid.
All in all, I can only fully recommend this experience. While everyone might experience it differently I am sure that everyone shares the joy in it. Asante Apollo!

Wonderful, amazing and helpful tour operator
Our safari with Axis Africa was an incredible experience. The tour operator was very thorough and organised and everything was planned for us including food, accommodation and activities. The places that we stayed were all awesome and all the game drives we went on were fantastic too. Our tour guide Ken was amazing and worked so hard to ensure we saw a range of animals in the parks, while also being respectful to the nature and animals. Overall, we absolutely loved the trip and cannot thank Axis and Ken enough.

Bashir is good natured, knowledgeable, and hospitable.
Words really cannot do this trip justice. Irene was so helpful in coordinating the trip and answered all questions promptly. We were able to see so many animals and birds. Our guide Bashir was so thoughtful and an expert on locating animals (patience is key). Luckily on our trip we were able to see the big five, lions, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, and a leopard in less than 24 hours. The lodging was clean and the hotel staff was very attentive. Bashir was so knowledgeable it was like watching a nature documentary. I would 100 percent recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Irene and Bashir!
