Awesome experience
A friend of mine recommended Makasa Tanzanian Safaris to me and I am glad she did. We feel very lucky that we booked our safari with Selma and Ngomi who are very kind, friendly and knowledgeable people. Selma has always been very helpful and quick in replying to our inquires and I am very grateful for her patience.
After a warm welcome from Selma and Ngomi, a well-organized itinerary in our hand and a lot of excitement we were looking forward to some adventures in Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti Nationalpark and the Ngorongoro Crater.
Our stay at each accommodation was great although I personally think that the Kenzan Tented Camp was the best. The views from the camp were just breath-taking and you are able to see animals just walking by from a short distance. Also the staff was very friendly and made you feel home.
During the safari our driver and guide Kaleby has always been very charming and made sure that we enjoy our trip to the fullest. In this regard, I would like to thank Kaleby for his professionalism and for showing and teaching us the wildlife and for giving us such a great opportunity to discover and see the beauty of Tanzania.
We just can't say enough about how first-rate everything was done by Selma and Kaleby. We know that we had the best possible safari. This was truly the trip of a lifetime and due in large part to the professionalism of Makasa Tanzanian Safari. Thank you guys for the unforgettable experience and the care and attention provided!

4 day northern circuit safari
We planned a fantastic 4 day safari with Taste of Afrika. They were waiting for us at the airport and planned for us to stay at the Tourist Inn in Arusha, which is basic but good as a starting point for safari. We did the Northern Circuit - Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro. Our guide was very friendly and extremely experienced and knowledgeable. We spotted so many amazing animals, including the black rhino but he also took time to explain many things to us, such as the amazing variety of different birds and about Masai culture in the region. We opted for a camping safari, which is a great way to experience the wildlife right from your tent. We had a chef and his cooking was excellent. Although we opted for a more 'budget' safari, it didn't feel budget at all, as we had such a good guide and me and my boyfriend were treated to such a personalised experience.

Bush knowledge and passion for conservation all rolled into one !
This trip was one of the best we have done after more than 20 years of "bushing" in many National Parks and private Game Reserves. Shaun is an awesome guide who has a wealth of knowledge about the bush and animal behaviour in general. To top it all, he is a genuinely pleasant person who is fiercely passionate about what he does and actually cares about the experience he gives to his guests. Our expectations were exceeded by some distance and we will not hesitate to undertake another African safari with Moriti.....

Highly recommend this company
We were well looked after from start to finish. Peter replied to my queries promptly. We had 2 excellent drivers. Safe and courteous. Leonard was our guide on safari and looked after us very well. He was well informed, pleasant to be with. He found all the animals on the park for us to see. We were delighted with how he looked after us. I would definitely use this company again.

Over a period of 10 years, we have received outstanding service and experienced memorable holidays.
We don't tend to use travel agents to organise our holidays but an old family friend introduced us to Mari Jacobs at Cedarberg and during the past 10 years, she has organised and delivered 4 memorable holidays for groups varying in size from 4 to 11 people. We have travelled in South Africa, Botswana, Zambia and Namibia and the arrangements have been seamless. Mari is efficient and responsive - and on the one occasion when we weren't happy with our accommodation, she moved us in a flash. Now that's the hallmark of a great travel agent. We wouldn't consider using anyone else to organise our African holidays and we continue to recommend Mari / Cedarberg to anyone expressing interest.

Great team
Simon and his team ensure that you get best experience when you are with them. This was my second visit with them and I am sure my third visit will also be with them.

Brilliant - I'd love to turn around and do it all again!
Breakdown Safaris arranged a private tour of three different National Parks and game reserves in Tanzania, plus a relaxing chill out on Zanzibar, over a three week period. The private tour was for my husband, five year old daughter, my parents who are in there early 70's and myself. Breakdown Safaris ticked everything off our 'to do and see' list, including personalized dietary requirements. They arranged everything from transfers, internal flights, accommodation, meals, ferries an activities. We saw all the wild animals (and more) that we hoped to see, in a safe (for us and the animals) manner. We were exposed to various cultural and charitable experiences, history and wildlife information because of our wonderful guide Fan. Our daughter has experienced a lifetime of memories because of Kathy and Fan's attention to detail and personalized service. Our expectations of adventure have now been given a whole new level.

3 Day Gorilla Safari
I went on the 3 Day Gorilla Safari Tour that Arrive Africa Safaris offers. I coordinated over email with Jessica to setup my Safari trip; she was quick to respond to any questions I had concerning the trip. I was able to have my guide, Ronald, pick me up from Kyenjojo instead of Kampala since I was working in Kyenjojo the prior week. Ronald was my guide for the Safari and he did a phenomenal job during the length of trip. He was very informative and easy-going. The Gorilla Trek itself was fantastic. It only took our group about an hour and a half to locate the gorillas and then we spent an hour observing them and taking pictures. Overall, Arrive Africa Safaris offers a great 3 Day Gorilla Trek; I definitely recommend it. One tip: If you are coming over from the US and you are bringing cash make sure to bring only 50s or 100s that are dated after 2009 and make sure that they don't have tears or stains. The Ugandan banks have strange rules on what US bills they will and won't accept.
