Unforgettable — seamless, reliable, easygoing, transparent
Soul of Tanzania and our guide Michael organized an unforgettable 7 day 6 night safari for my partner and me. We had an incredible experience exploring Serengeti, Ngorongoro, a glimpse of Manyara, and Tarangire. Michael was knowledgeable, responsible, and easy going, a natural travel partner and pilot who made us feel safe and well cared for across the whole trip - an excellent guide. He and the tour company were both very flexible which we appreciated and allowed the whole trip to still feel like vacation (as people who typically spend holidays sleeping in and exploring spontaneously on the fly rather than planning ahead and having a tight itinerary) — we were glad to have downtime to relax when needed. We also particularly appreciated Soul of Tanzania’s transparency with pricing and options for customization (i.e., choosing lodge at each destination at our preferred amenity/price points, and mix and matching). This stood out from other companies and ultimately brought us to choose Soul of Tanzania (in addition to their clearly strong track record). Would recommend to others!!

Excellent. Perfect advices, good listeners and they combine that in a perfect trip and holiday.
From the first moment I felt that no question was too much. Arusha travel understands that of course you want the best value for your money and that you want the best trip ever. And they arrange that!! All questions can be asked, all kind of different routes can be discussed, all type of hotels can be chosen. They’re great! Give them a call and start your journey with Arusha.

Our driver Francis was amazing!
Everything was wonderful. The guides were very knowledgeable about the animals, history and the everyday lives of the Kenyan people. They especially made sure we had all of our luggage and plenty of bathroom breaks. The ONLY negative was an itinerary a bit too full. Would have definitely dropped the one night stay that took 11 hours of driving to get to! I would’ve preferred more time at Amboseli or Nakuru. If Google Maps says it takes 5 hours to get from one park to another, add 3 hours to that. No fault of any one person, just how driving through Kenyan countryside really works.

From the moment they picked me up to the final drop-off, every detail was perfect.
I had an amazing experience with Zambezi Expedition Travel and Tours. From the initial communication to the final drop-off, everything was handled professionally and efficiently.
The team was friendly, reliable, and ensured that every detail of the trip was well organized. The accommodation they arranged was comfortable and exceeded my expectations, and the tours were absolutely beautiful and memorable.
The team was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive—they constantly made sure we were comfortable during the rides and at every place we visited, which made the whole journey stress-free and enjoyable. Every part of the tour was well organized. We had a wonderful time exploring Victoria Falls, and every experience—from the delicious food to the game drive and the boat cruise—was absolutely unforgettable.
I truly felt that the experience was great value for money, and I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a visit to Victoria Falls.
Thank you once again Zambezi Expedition Travel and Tours for the welcome experience.

Perfect!!!
Choose Passionate Guides – you won’t regret it!
From the day I reached out communication was clear, prompt, and upfront. I had an idea in mind of what we wanted to do, but it involved multiple countries, some “off the beaten track areas”, and our time was very limited. Beatus figured out exactly how to fit everything in in the time we had available. In 16 days we were able to spend 6 day safari in Tanzania, a 3/4 day beach holiday in Zanzibar, as well as 6 days in Uganda trekking with the chimpanzees and mountain gorillas. Everything was perfect. The lodges that were suggested were great, and our guides Dominic in Tanzania and Ismail & Geoffrey in Uganda were all and super accommodating. I wouldn’t choose anyone else and I’ve already suggested Passionate Guides to anyone I know interested in visiting East Africa.
6 out of 5 stars!!!

Nowtaz Tours (Nortaz Safari) delivers seamless, personal safaris and unforgettable experiences.
My wife and I had been talking about going on a safari in Tanzania for years. When we finally had time during Easter, we thought: why not? Rainy season or not – let’s go!
We booked with Nowtaz Tours (Nortaz Safari), and honestly, it was one of the best travel decisions we’ve ever made (and we’ve made quite a few over 32 years of marriage 😉).
We originally asked for their “Eternal Love Honeymoon Safari” since we skipped our honeymoon back in the day – so this became our 32-year delayed honeymoon 😄
Paul was quick to respond, super helpful, and very easy to deal with. Everything was sorted out fast, and we felt taken care of from the very beginning. He even showed up at our hotel in Arusha to welcome us – and again at the end to check how it all went. That’s what I call service!
Our guide was amazing – great driver, incredibly knowledgeable, and had a surprisingly good understanding of Danish humor (which is not always easy 😅). Even in areas with tall grass, he somehow managed to find animals everywhere.
We saw a lot of wildlife – including the Big Five in Serengeti! The wildebeest and zebra migration was just insane – thousands of animals moving together. And seeing not just one, but six rhinos in Ngorongoro? That felt like hitting the safari jackpot.
As for the “rainy season”… well, it rained for about 30 minutes the evening we arrived. That’s it. The rest of the time: sunshine. So much for worrying about the weather!
Yes, some of the roads were a bit bumpy – but that just adds to the adventure (and maybe helps justify an extra drink at the lodge later 😉).
Speaking of lodges: they were fantastic. Way better than expected.
All in all, an unforgettable trip with a great company. We can highly recommend Nowtaz Tours – and we might not wait another 32 years before going again!

5 stars+++ arusha trips
5 stars+++! What an amazing trip Lex from Arusha Trips put together for us. It couldn't have been better. Top-notch! The locations were superb, from tents to luxury lodges. First, four days in the Serengeti with our guide Leonce. Lex had specifically requested driver Leonce for us because we were traveling with our two sons who are students. We clicked immediately, and with it, the great atmosphere. Leonce took us to special spots for lunch right in the middle of nature. He made sure we saw a yacht and, among other things, six leopards. Thanks Leonce! You're a star! Afterwards, on Lex's recommendation, we traveled to Mafia Island to go diving. Indescribably beautiful. A bullseye. We also swam with 15-meter-long whale sharks. Lex, thank you for this unforgettable family trip; you truly create a tailor-made journey. I recommend your travel agency to all my friends and family. And by the way, to you who are reading my review as well.

Professional, reliable, and truly memorable adventure.
Everlasting African Adventure provided an outstanding experience from start to finish. Communication was clear and timely, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. Joshua was professional, reliable, and attentive to every detail, ensuring we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the trip. The tour itself was well-organized, with knowledgeable guides who made the experience both exciting and informative. We saw incredible wildlife and visited beautiful waterfalls. Overall, the service offered great value for money, and I would highly recommend this company and Joshua as the tour guide to anyone looking for a memorable and well-planned trip to Tanzania.
