The Best Tour Company of all the time (Highly recommended)
My family and i we had the wonderful time in Tanzania with the best travel company that we went for the day trip on Mount Kilimanjaro and Safaris.
We are satisfied with all the service we get during the trip.
Highly recommended for our tour guides Julien and Eric who's as our guide during the both trip with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris.
If you are looking for great adventure and unforgettable experience in tours and safaris in Tanzania, no more choice just go with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris.
Our safari was curated with expertise, professionalism and with a personal touch for our family!
Tapestry of Africa curated a 14 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania with private guides and luxury lodges. Matt worked with our family to develop a perfect trip; he met with us via Zoom to describe each day, showed excellent examples of our lodges with included meals, and educated us on how to prepare for the trip. Our Kenya driver/expert guide, Kim, picked us up in Nairobi and immediately started us off toward our game drive in Ol Pejeta Convervancy. Upon entering the gates, we immediately saw elephants, giraffes, zebra, then were amazed at a male and female lion walking right next to our vehicle, then stalking a warthog. Kim was professional, kind, and knowledgeable about all the animals and the best places to spy them. During our trip we spied 3 different leopards, which are typically elusive animals, but Kim guided us to them knowing where they typically stay. Each luxury lodge we stayed at was special with such friendly and expert service, beautiful accommodations, excellent and delicious food. We even took a hot air balloon ride over the savanna to see the animals and beautiful sunrise. Tapestry’s staff would keep in touch on a daily basis to make sure our needs were met. In addition to Ol Pejeta Conservancy, we went to Lake Nakuru National Park, Masai Mara National Reserve, then to Tanzania where our guide, Eddie, was equally knowledgeable and professional to guide us through Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, then back to Kenya with Kim to guide us through Ambroseli National Park. Everywhere we went, it seemed the animals seemed to come to us or walk right by our vehicle. We saw elephants, lions, hippos, rhinos, buffalos, zebras, giraffes wildebeest, hyenas, cheetah, leopards, warthogs, gazelle, meerkats, every kind of African bird, the beautiful Masai people, the famous baobab trees, ancient volcanoes and Mount Kilimanjaro! Our first trip to Africa captured our hearts and we can not wait to come back for our next adventure!

Best experience we've ever had
We loved the Lion King safari; it was a wonderful and unforgettable experience. We went for our honeymoon and enjoyed everything.
A huge thank you to Davidi, our Spanish-speaking guide, for making our trip so special every day. He was so helpful, we saw so many animals, including the Big Five, and we were thrilled. We highly recommend it!
Greetings, Javiera and Nicolas from Chile.

Phenomenal
This tour was incredible. I had been told by people who have been on safari that there is nothing like it, that it is life-changing. They were right. Witnessing the beauty and the raw power of nature is beyond compare.
Gofan Safaris provided this experience for us. Our tour guide/driver, Onesmus Mutunga is one of a kind. He was a wealth of information about every species and natural wonder. He patiently answered our questions, allowing us ample time to see everything, yet was still be mindful of the time to make sure we didn’t miss anything. It was easy to see that he loves what he does and enjoyed sharing everything he knew. He was also very careful—we always felt safe— and he saw to our every need while out on the reserve. The entire trip was comfortable and organized. The first day of safari we said hello to our guide. The day we left, we said good-bye to a friend. I highly recommend Gofan Safaris. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Amazing!!! Nick is very knowledgeable, always scouting for animals, excellent driver.
This was a trip of a lifetime. My husband and I celebrated our 45 th anniversary with Nick and our new friends. We asked to see lions, and Nick found them. Watched the elephants take morning walk in front of Mt Kilamojaro. So incredibly close to all the wild animals in their natural habitats. We would definitely do this trip again!!!

Trip of a lifetime!
It’s hard to even put into words how grateful we are and how truly amazing this trip was. My boyfriend and I did a 5 day safari, in Tsavo West and Amboseli, plus an add on of a morning game drive in Nairobi National Park. We stayed at Severin in Tsavo West and Sentrim in Amboseli. Our tour consultant was Morris and he was excellent. Great communication via WhatsApp and email and great planning throughout! We told him exactly what we wanted to do and he made it happen! Our driver guide for Nairobi National Park was John. He made sure we saw rhinos and boy did we see a lot of them! He also drove us around for a little city tour of Nairobi and it was lovely. For our 5 day safari, our driver guide was Eliud (Elliot). He was incredible!!!!!! He made sure we arrived safe to every location, kept us safe on safari, and was just really lovely to hang out with for 5 days. In Tsavo West, we had amazing scenery, cool giraffe and elephant encounters, and visited Mzima Springs to see hippos and crocodiles. At our lodge Severin, it was an open lodge with no fence, and there were zebras grazing 10 feet away from us during dinner! The lodge felt luxury with a nice pool, and was very calm and peaceful. Although Tsavo West lacks in wildlife encounters, it is way less busy than Amboseli and the lodge was an incredible experience. Next we went to Amboseli - where the magic happened! Our lodge was Sentrim, and while not as luxurious as Severin, it was a VIBE! Lots of people hanging out and drinking and loud music and a lot of fun. In Amboseli, we saw EVERYTHING. We saw cheetahs, lions (a male lion within 10 minutes of entering the park!), hippos, so many birds, different gazelles and impalas, huge herds of elephants, wildebeest, zebras, and Cape buffalo. We got so lucky with really clear views of Kilimanjaro on both our drives. But what made our safari truly unforgettable was Eliud. He was so knowledgeable, told us so many cool facts about Kenya as we were driving, knew everything about all of the wildlife, and had an answer for every question we asked. I cried multiple times today leaving Kenya because of how special this whole experience was. We miss you Eliud! Kenya will forever have a place in our hearts ❤️
