An absolutely amazing experience!!
We had a brilliant 5 day safari with Tanzania Destination Safaris. We visited Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater. From the start Emmanuel was very prompt in his replies to all emails and we received a very professional service. We had a private tour which was not that much more expensive and well worth it.
Our driver, Izekiel, was fantastic. He was driver, guide, mechanic and much more.
The scenery was absolutely stunning and the number of animals we saw was incredible. We saw all the big five (including rhino!!) and much more besides, all at close quarters. The animal sightings far exceeded all my expectations.
The accommodation was fantastic, especially the Katikati tented campsite which was a real highlight. All food was delicious and we were treated extremely well at all the lodges/campsites.
The vehicle was in excellent repair and obviously well maintained. We had one minor mechanical fault which was dealt with quickly (within 10 minutes!!) and professionally.
Overall the safari was everything we dreamed of and more. We were well looked after from start to finish and had an absolutely magical experience. There were no hidden costs and it was well worth the money. I was very impressed with all aspects of the service we received from Tanzania Destination safaris and I would highly recommend them.

A Fine Experience
Stephen and Johann provided excellent support and narrative for our trip through Kruger National Park. We really enjoyed viewing the animals in their habitats and discussing natural and human history connected to the park. Given the small size of our vehicle and restrictions on the rear seat windows, it might have worked a little better if Johann, Cheryl, and I had been able to switch seats from time to time, allowing better use of our DSLR camera with its big telephoto lens through the front passenger window. But having narrow windows to shoot through was a minor annoyance in an otherwise great trip, and we got stunning photos of giraffe, rhino, lion, leopard, zebra, wildebeest, elephant, hippopotamus, crocodile, impala, kudu, and many bird species. Stephen made our next-day trip from Graskop to Pretoria into another great experience. We saw lots of country and learning a great deal about the area's geology, history, forest practices, agriculture, and small towns. Great job, Explendor Tours!

Wild dreams....
After a long serie of flights we finally got to our first destination- Kilimanjaro airport. Wildroots Safari was already waiting for us with some refreshments. After approx 1 ride we came to our first lodge in Arusha. After the dinner we had short briefing with our guide and we have started our adventure the next day in Arusha Park, continuing on Tarangire, the highlight of the trip was of course Serengeti-wild&crazy, side by side with animals in a tented lodge. As last we had scheduled Ngongoro crater, which is boasting with its amazing landscape. All lodges we got offered from our guide were very nice with african flair and up to standard-unfortunately we didnt have enough time to enjoy them. The driver was very cool and was always trying to get us what we wanted or needed. We got to see all the animals we could think of and more. After 6 days we had to leave this beautiful wildness and head for our next destination. If you are ready for a wild african adventure, with some laughters and dont mind some dusty faces now and then this is the team you should get together with. Thank you Wildroots safari for this one in a lifetime adventure!!!

Good service provided by Ewamann Safari
We did a Kenya+Tanzania tour for 13 days (12 nights) and was very beautiful!
Erick has solved all of our questions since the beginning of our first communication. I had many because it was the first time that I contacted with a local agency and I wanted to be sure that everything was fine at our arrival and during the trip. During the itinerary, we had some problems to get our daily water and problems in some accommodations, also at our arrival in Tanzania because it wasn't any body waiting for us at the bus station but this is all. After request some help to the bus driver, we got the solution but when you are in a foreign country, you feel very strange and a little bit confused. These problems came also by the own country, it is not only agency fault because Erick is always glad to help you in any problem you need. From my point of view, if you are an European/American tourist, you cannot except to receive the same service as in your country. You have to go with open mind and understand that you are in Africa! I missed more information from drivers but for instance we had one in Kenya who is called Maxwell who was lovely! Very brilliant person and friendly! He helped us to love the natural parks and to enjoy during the game drives.
To sum up, please do not hesitate to contact this agency to buy your safari because everything you need, Erick will be there to help you and to do your stay comfortable between Africa can offer you :).
We saw the big five, also to hunt in Tanzania so was an amazing and beautiful experience. Each park is different. I would recommend you to visit both countries to feel the sensations of sleeping in the middle of Serengeti, in Tanzania and enjoy the marvelous views in Kenya parks as well. There were stay places very kind and nice as Panorama Campsite and the one in Amboseli where people was lovely.
You can trust 100% in Erick who will be worried for your interests!!!
Thank you Erick&team!! We will always remember this trip :) Contact me if you are planning to come to Spain!

Bestday gave us a best day every day!
Well organised, trustworthy and well executed safari.
Communication before the safari was good and Peter was very accommodating with our needs and changes to itinerary.
Our flight was delayed by 12 hours and they were still able make last minute changes and look after us.
The days we were on safari were excellent.
The driver was an incredible spotter and managed to get us up close and personal to so many amazing animals and action.
I have no hesitation in recommending Bestdays to you
Expertise and attention to detail delivers a fantastic safari experience...again !
This was the third time that I had used The Safari Club to arrange a trip to Africa.
Paul and Ellie have a wide range of experience of Africa and their attention to detail in achieving our specific requirements produced a fantastic trip which neither my wife and I will forget. They were in tune with what we wanted from the start which was wider than just a safari.
All the hotels and lodges were beyond expectation. All transportation arrangements worked perfectly. They were also able to assist with recommendations for additional trips and restaurants etc.
I would have no hesitation in recommending The Safari Club to anyone who wants the perfect African experience. In fact, we can't wait to go again.
