Trip of a Lifetime!
Wow! We had a fantastic time in Africa thanks to Brenda and Noel. TCS came recommended to us by a friend who had gone with them himself and had recommended them many times to others who had wonderful experiences also. We strongly agree! Everything from the planning and booking to the in-country logistics was very well-organized. We felt very well cared for and safe. They clearly have a lot of experience and local knowledge and contacts that make for a very nice trip for their guests. We would definitely go with them again and highly recommend them!
Brenda did a fantastic job transforming our "wish list" into a real life adventure. We wanted to do both a classic animal safari and some cultural tourism experiences. She worked with us over several months to fine tune our itinerary. She provided invaluable help when we failed to get our Tanzania visas in time. She responded promptly to emails and was always pleasant to deal with. She ultimately crafted an itinerary that really fit what we were hoping for quite well.
We especially enjoyed our day in Mto wa Mbu where we went with a local guide who shared a variety of local cultural experiences with us (banana plantation, rice plantation, primary school, art/painting studio, traditional wood carving, mbege (local banana beer), and local cuisine for lunch). We also really liked our 2 day stay at Africa Amini Maasai Lodge where we stayed in a modernized Maasai hut and learned about Maasai culture through hands-on experiences, such as spear-throwing and enjoying barbequed meat around the campfire. We even got to take a mountain bike ride with a Maasai warrior!
Noel was our primary guide throughout our stay and we can't say enough good things about him! Not only was he a top-notch professional safari guide, but he was also incredibly warm, friendly, caring and funny. When it comes to a trip like this the safari guide makes all the difference and Noel made this really special for us. He found so many animals and birds and was so knowledgeable about animal behavior, mating, gestation, etc. And he got us incredibly close to so many animals! We saw much more than we ever imagined. We watched a baby zebra being born and taking its first steps, a mother cheetah and her 2 juveniles stalking gazelles, a lioness hunting zebra, and countless mothers and babies! He planned every day's game drive to maximize our animal sightings. He clearly enjoys his job and it was so enjoyable to see him get excited along with us. His experience and judgement seemed to be highly respected by the other guides. Additionally, we saw a huge variety of birds and somehow Noel knew every species!
Overall Tanzania Choice Safaris gave us the trip of a lifetime that we were hoping for and that exceeded even our greatest expectations!

An incredible, knowledgeable, very professional, and organized operator
From the moment our journey began with 21Africa Safari, we knew we were in for something extraordinary. Our safari tour through Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park was nothing short of magical.
The highlight of our adventure was undoubtedly the Ngorongoro Crater. Witnessing the majestic wildlife in their natural habitat, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, was an experience we'll cherish forever. The knowledgeable guides from 21Africa Safari enriched every moment with fascinating insights about the wildlife and history, making the tour both educational and thrilling. Due to their extensive experience, we were able to see all the Big Five animals, which was beyond our expectations.
What set 21Africa Safari apart was their impeccable attention to detail, ensuring our comfort and safety throughout the journey. Their passion for conservation and deep respect for the environment were evident, adding a meaningful layer to our adventure.
I wholeheartedly give 21Africa Safari a glowing 5-star rating. If you're seeking an authentic, awe-inspiring safari experience, look no further than 21Africa Safari. They truly deliver an adventure of a lifetime!

Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari with James
We recently did a 9 day safari with Msangai for our Honeymoon with James which was simply amazing and unforgettable.
The booking experience with Zee was great, he was very knowledgable and responsive, and even helped arrange our hot air balloon, internal transport and subsequent week with scuba diving in Zanzibar. On the ground we were in touch with Eric, who was also able to rearrange our flight to Zanzibar when we spotted an issue.
The safari itself was incredible, with James' help we saw all the big 5, the migration (wildebeest, zebras and giraffes!!) and so much more! He was incredible throughout and so knowledgable. We were also very happy with the lodges and camps throughout (special mention for Kiriche, Osiligilai and Kankari Lodge!!) which also prepared us a delicious hot lunch for the following day.
Asante Sana James na Msangai Adventure, hopefully we will see you again soon.

Best tour operator!
The planning of the trip was seamless, Theresia made a very detailed plan, and answered any questions I had.
The itinerary was amazing : all activities and hotels were great. Especially Isalo national park and relais de la reine.
Our guide Jules and our driver Haja were the absolute best. They were very resourceful when it came to questions about their country or any other requests. They really exceeded our expectations!
Thank you so much for the amazing experience. I would love to go back to Madagascar one day with Soul of Madagascar!

Wonderful tour for the whole family
I contacted Paul and other agencies, Paul gave me the best price and honestly it was worthy. We went to Maasai Mara, Naivasha and Amboseli. He recommended hotels and all of them were good. We requested a guide in Spanish and he had the best one, very knowledgeable.
I really recommend Paul, he answers fast and is very reliable, what we paid we got

WONDERFULL
Our 3-day safari was absolutely amazing! We saw everything — lions, elephants, and so many other animals, some just one meter away! The landscapes were stunning. Our guide Rajab was fantastic — friendly, funny, and super knowledgeable. He really made this experience unforgettable. The company was also wonderful — they took care of everything for us and even helped us with some personal problems. We loved every single moment, from the game drives to the picnic lunches in the middle of nature. We 100% recommend this safari and Rajab!
