Great service, excellent organisation and once in a lifetime experience!
We really enjoyed our safari trip with Flash Safaris to Serengeti, Ngorogoro, Tarengire and Arusha National Park. We spoke with Magda about our wishes and she gave us great advice about what parks to see. We even did a balloon safari over the Serengeti. Our guide was a former wildlife preservator from Serengeti and knew all the right spots to see animals (i.e. leopards; lions etc.) We had an amazing time and can recommend Flash Safaris to everyone!

Safari Planning Made Easy
My planning started a good eleven months before the trip. While I had the basic structure of the trip in mind, Willow from Planet Africa Safaris had many helpful recommendations and my dream trip was set to reality quickly. I was impressed on how fast she always responded to my every inquiry, as if my trip was the only one she was working on. The airline changed the international flight twice and each time Willow juggled many bookings to accommodate the new schedule. I was lucky that the airline did not change the schedule too wildly and, more importantly, I was lucky that Willow was the one orchestrating all the planning, bookings, flight schedule, and all the details I didn’t think of. On the trip, the logistics flowed smoothly as the Mara River flows and each stop offered new and different experiences: From bush experience at Rekero to solitude at Naboisho Conservancy, from equatorial forest canopy at Rubondo Island to the open plains at Namiri Plains. By the way, this was the second trip Planet Africa Safaris organised for me. And for my next Kenya and Tanzania trip, I will call Planet Africa Safaris, first and only.

Game reserve Experience
We hired It Started in Africa for a game reserve experience for us and our daughter, just a couple of weeks ago.
We had a fantastic experience, with a good vehicle, knowledgeable driver and also some luck with the game drives as we saw the big5 multiple times.
They arranged the transport and the reservations. It all went off flawlessly! We highly recommend It Started in Africa as a travel agent and tour arranger!

Fantastic Safari - Fantastic Services
We really enjoyed our safari experience with Fantastic Safaris, the trip was impressive, and their services were fantastic:
- high quality and spacious 4x4 Land Rovers (much better than most of the vehicles of other agency’s we came across during our trip); very skillful drivers/rangers, who have in-depth knowledge of wildlife and nature, and who can also tell a lot about Tanzania and its cultureI definitely recommend to book your Tanzania trip through Fantastic Safaris

A lifetime experience
I have recently come back from a 14 day safari in which was organised by AFRICAN BUDGET SAFARIS. I did contact several companies but I found that this replied quickly to all my questions and also put together a great itinerary. I can highly recommend AFRICAN BUDGET SAFARIS to anyone. You will find them a pleasure to work with, informative and helpful at all times.

An Unforgettable Experience
When we began our Kilimanjaro hike, we had no idea we were about to meet the most energetic, enthusiastic, hard-working, and talented group of friends gathered as representatives of Tanzania Expeditions. Their singing and dancing before, after, and during the hike; paying attention to every little detail from setting up a dining table with candles to delicious three course meals; carrying birthday cake to make my daughter’s 18th birthday a special one on the last day of the hike; and most of all, their passion for the nature are all aspects of this trip that we will carry in our hearts.
Living overseas for many years and traveling to many different countries, we have managed to create many fond memories, but none could be compared with the experience we’ve had with Tanzania Expeditions. Quality of service, professionalism, and wide smiles on every single individual were the qualities that surfaced throughout our hike. We were amazed of our Chef Dioniz’s capabilities to cook the volume of delicious meals with what limited resources the mountain allowed to be carried up. The chef’s assistant and our server, Casian, still makes us laugh as we remember his sense of humor. Our guides, Erick and Kabebi, are professionals in their work, knowing their mountain well and how to help those who are first time hikers on it. Mamba, the lead singer, and all the porters who were ready to sing and dance at a drop of a hat created an uplifting atmosphere when we felt exhausted after a long day’s hike.
I had to come off the mountain on the third day due to altitude sickness while my family continued to the summit. During my recovery, Justin, the owner of Tanzania Expeditions, and Erick, one of the tour guides, made sure that I was well situated and taken care of. Erick took me around for daily excursions through whom I have learned so much about the local culture. Justin came every evening to provide phone connection to my family so I could still be part of their experience. When one thinks how all of these details could possibly be thought of, one word keeps surfacing to my mind—passion. Justin, tour guides, chefs, and all the porters shared the same passion which fueled their enthusiasm and attention to the detail. We happened to be the lucky ones to be among them.
We would strongly recommend Tanzania Expeditions for anyone who is ready for an experience of a life time. As for us… we definitely want to go back again, hopefully sometime soon.
