AMAZING!
5/5

I visited Africa during the summer of 2016 with African Adventure Specialists. We had a tour that was specifically designed for our party of 10. We were completely taken care of from the minute we landed to the minute we departed Africa. The trip was the best trip I have ever taken to Africa (my third trip). The tour guides were amazing, the hotels, tents, meals, tours, and safaris. They went above and beyond my expectations. Here is just one example of what they did to accommodate us: My son is a Cross Country runner in college and they set him up with an African Olympic Hopeful Marathon runner to accommodate my son's training while in Nairobi. My son will never forget the experience running through the streets with Stanley. Our tour also included a trip to an orphanage where we spent the day learning about the orphanage and playing with the students. We wanted our own children to experience what life with out a lot is like in Africa. We even brought suggested items for the children. A memory I will never forget, nor will my children. One of our tour guide operators even bought us a corn on the cob off the street when we were driving- what a delicious treat for all of us to share. Without a doubt, when I return to Africa, I will be calling African Adventure Specialists to book my tour.

local and personal operator that
5/5

We decided to book through a local operator in stead of booking through a travel agency from back home. Admitted, we were a bit nervous having no idea what to expect.
Hello Tanzania were from the beginning very informative and professional and we quickly felt in good hands.
Hello Tanzania kept us informed in the months prior to our safari and were very considering concerning various food allergies, offering different kind of lodges after our choice etc.. Before we even left we felt like they did their very best to make our safari the best experience possible.
They provided us a tailormade solution as we didn't have that much time, but still wished to see different parks. We ended up visiting Selous and Mikumi over a five day period. They offered to pick us up from the airport in Dar free of charge even though our safari wasn't until the next day.
Our driver Edgar was very nice and informative - not only regarding the wildlife, but also regarding Tanzania and the local people.
Our safari experience in especially Selous was fantastic - the reserve has a very diverse nature and lots and lots of wildlife. Selous felt more untamed and wild. Mikumi was also nice and you get to see the animals up very close.
In Selous we stayed at Kinga Lodge which was very nice - and we shared the lodge with a family of baboons. In Mikumi we stayed at Camp Bastian which was also very nice. Both lodges had excellent staff, good food and comfortable rooms.
We decided to drive all the way from Dar-Selous-Mikumi-Dar, which gave us an nice look into the everyday life in various villages etc., but these trips were also very long and the roads are (at best) in bad conditions. Hello Tanzania had offered us that we could fly - and looking back we should have accepted this offer at least one way.
After our safari we went to Zanzibar where Hello Tanzania also have an office. Here Hello Tanzania arranged a free airport transfer to our hotel, and since we decided to book a trip to Stone Town through the local branch which also worked out great.

We can only fully recommend booking through Hello Tanzania, they gave us a great safari experience and excellent service - both before, during and after our trip.

an unforgettable trip to Uganda
5/5

We had a fantastic experience, wonderful in every way: all the camps, their staff, the food (especially the lokal food and the fruits), the car and its equipment, the parks, the nature, the animals, even the weather. Really everything was perfect.

Our guides Faruk and Twaha organised everything with no problem, They were brilliant, humorous and very knowledgeable and took great care of us all. Their quality as animal spotters and their abundant knowledge of wildlife was impressive. Thank you again!

Uganda - the pearl of Afrika
I have to come back one day and for sure I would choose this company and these guys again! If you are looking for someone to arrange your safari, look no further!

Thank you so much for this awesome experience!

The trip of a life time
5/5

We had a great experience with Makasa. First before the trip, they were very helpful to propose itinaries tailored made for our wishes. Once arrived it went perfect and the teip was beyond our expectation. Our guide/driver was fantastic with great knowledge of animals and local life and driving safe too! Also the accomodations were very nice, with friendly staff and great locations!
Overall all we defenitely recommend Makasa.
Hakuna matata!!

5/5

In November 2017 we had very good experiences with Steenbok Safaris. The scout, Moabi Marambo was very reliable and punctual. The trip to the Chobe and Vic.Falls was unforgettable.

excellent safari tour! life time experience.
5/5

My wife and I took the trip and enjoyed every moment of the tour. very fascinating animals. We have seen all the "big five" animals. I like the lodges where we overnighted. they are all clean at good location. the food there are also very tasty.
our tour guide, steven, is very friendly and knowledgeable. He keeps an eye on the rough road while still found the leopard on trees. this is amazing.

Beautiful Tour of Kenya
5/5

My family traveled to Kenya with Shoor Travel and we had a great safari at very reasonable cost. However we were booked fairly good standard accommodation which included a deluxe tented camp at Lake Nakuru and a luxury lodge in Amboseli.
Our driver was a friendly chap who actually took good care of my kids during the trip so they saw all the animals they liked the most.
Great trip with Shoor.
