Amazing honeymoon day trip to Ngorongoro
My wife and I booked with Zanzi Trekking and Safaris for a safari in Ngorongoro Crater for our honeymoon. We had limited time in Tanzania so we opted for the day trip to the crater and we couldn't have been happier. Communication from our very first contact was perfect, and we would always recieve a fast response to our questions. The actual day of the safari was also great, our guide had great knowledge of the local area, the history and the animals, and of course the animals were spectacular as expected. I would recommend anyone to book with Zanzi Trekking and Safaris if they are thinking of doing any kind of tour in the area.

Amazing
A Honeymoon Safari Beyond Expectations!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were initially hesitant to book a safari for our honeymoon—but choosing Telly Africa Safaris turned out to be one of the best decisions we made for our trip!
From the very beginning, the team was responsive and helpful. They arranged everything seamlessly for our 2-night, 3-day safari from Serengeti to Arusha—including flights, hotel pick-up from Paje (Zanzibar), and drop-off back to our next destination in Nungwi. The logistics were smooth and stress-free, allowing us to simply enjoy the experience.
A huge shoutout to our amazing guide, Aaron, who truly elevated the entire trip. He was incredibly knowledgeable and had an unbelievable eye for spotting wildlife—often seeing animals from great distances before we even noticed them! Thanks to him, we managed to see *the Big Five* in just 1.5 days, including a visit to the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater.
The food exceeded expectations too—especially the generous picnic lunches during the game drives (even I couldn’t finish mine!). The attention to detail and comfort was apparent throughout.
As for accommodations: **Signature Serengeti Luxury Tented Camp** and **The Retreat at Ngorongoro** were absolutely stunning. The photos online truly don’t do them justice. Both stays were luxurious, peaceful, and perfect for a romantic getaway.
There are many safari tour operators out there, but we are so glad we went with Telly Africa Safaris. Their service, planning, and execution were simply outstanding. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience Tanzania’s wildlife.

The best experience with everything arranged above and beyond
Went with Telly on the safari for our honeymoon, and we can truly say that we’ve had the best and most special experience during our 3 day tour through Serengeti, Ngorongoro and towards Arusha. Not only that, but the pick up in Zanzibar, flight to Seronera and service backwards to our new accommodation in Zanzibar, was perfectly arranged whilst William made sure we were picked up all the time. During our stays on the mainland, they all really made us feel like we were on our honeymoon, with one night even a sing/dance performance during dinner and a cake moment to share with everyone around. Thank you everyone for making this the most special experience ever! Oh and Aron, our tour guide, made sure we had the best spots to see all the wild animals that we wanted to see.

A competent tour organiser with a personal touch
My two travel friends and I could not have been happier with the Nottens Bush Camp safari organised for us by Ryan at Untamed. The wildlife sightings were beyond our expectations and the lodge was lovely- drivers, other staff, dining and accommodation fantastic. All our transfers and flights on either end worked well too. I thoroughly recommend Untamed Safaris.

Unforgettable experience, faultlessorganisation, incredible guide and perfect honeymoon
My wife and I planned our honeymoon through Pamoja, and we were absolutely blown away. From the first email to the final day of our trip, everything exceeded our expectations.
We did an 8-day safari through Uganda, with highlights including gorilla trekking, golden monkeys in Mgahinga, game drives in Murchison Falls, and a relaxing stay at Lake Bunyonyi—all in our own private safari Land Cruiser.
Our guide, David, was the heart and soul of the trip. From the moment we met him, he was warm, knowledgeable, fun, and unbelievably attentive. His ability to spot wildlife was astonishing, and he constantly went above and beyond—squeezing in extra game drives, taking scenic routes to maximize animal sightings, and even coordinating honeymoon surprises with our lodges. Thanks to David, every day felt personal and special. By the end, he felt more like a friend than a guide.
Behind the scenes, Regina made the planning effortless. She responded quickly, crafted a fantastic itinerary, and made sure every hotel, transfer, and detail was spot on. She also checked in during the trip to ensure everything ran smoothly and clearly put in the effort to match us with the perfect guide—David.
Uganda itself is breathtaking, full of stunning landscapes, rich wildlife, and welcoming people. We saw four of the Big Five, golden monkeys, and of course, the unforgettable gorillas—a true once-in-a-lifetime moment.
Endless thanks to Pamoja, Regina, and especially David for creating a honeymoon beyond our dreams. We’ll treasure this adventure forever.

Good communication, well priced, experienced
What an amazing and exhilarating experience!
From communicating with Tabitha via WhatsApp to leaving our driver Peter at the airport; my bucket list safari dreams were accomplished!
It was lovely to meet Tabitha and the all female head office in Nairobi. From then we met our amazing driver Peter who had so much knowledge and experience! He had a great sense of humour and was so accommodating too. We got so lucky and saw 4/5 of the big 5! This was due to Peters diligence and passion for the job. I loved our accommodations and I would recommend the upgrade to midrange for a comfortable stay as the days can be early and long. Amazing value for money!
I hope to return to Africa in the near future and I’d definitely use Axis again for their Tanzania tours!

Organised, competitive prices, and clearly very experienced.
Gosh… I’m not sure where to start.
This was the first safari that I’ve been on and I am so glad that I chose Axis safaris. From the start, they were clearly the most competitive when it came to prices for a 6 day safari - which was further complemented by their excellent communication, recommendations, and how they can advise/adapt to your needs as well.
They definitely make sure you’re looked after before your trip, when you arrive, and during the duration of your time on the safari or in Kenya! Big shout out to Tabitha who always answered our questions and delivered an unforgettable experience for my wife and I’s first anniversary.
I could write on and on but I’ll try to summarise. The 6 day safari across Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboselli was amazing. Thoroughly loved all 3 places though the visibility at Amboselli of Mount Kilimanjaro was quite limited due to weather but that’s certainly out of the company’s control! I would highly recommend to anyone reading this to book an upgraded stay at all 3 places as it’ll make a big difference in terms of food, showers, and a place to rest after long game drives and travelling.
I’d like to dedicate a special paragraph to our tour guide Peter. We called him Lucky Peter or Passionate Peter because that certainly came across during our whole trip. He always seemed to know the best routes and you can tell he clearly wanted to share his passion and knowledge of animals with the rest of us. We saw unbelievable things such as a Cheetah hunt, lions eating buffalo, lions walking, elephant prides, giraffes and even Craig the famous elephant at Amboselli. It’s quite important to highlight how much a guide can change your experience as many of the groups didn’t see the same things we did after catching up in the hotel restaurants in the evenings. He greatly prides himself in delivering an excellent experience for his group, extremely kind and catering towards our needs, and I’ll genuinely miss him.
Thank you Axis Safaris and Peter. And thank you Kenya!
P.S. Peter is hilarious too

It was a great trip in Kenya. I was surprised and gained something every day.
The company's arrangements were very reasonable, everyone's demands were well met, the driver was also very nice and responsible for us, allowing us to have an unforgettable journey in Kenya. The price was also very reasonable, without any extra charges, the performance of the car was also very good, and accommodation and food were all arranged clearly.

Our Fabulous Safari Adventure with Gilmag
I highly recommend Gilmag if your planning a safari. When I agreed to take my Auntie (80) and her friend (75) on safari I knew that we needed a company that paid attention to details and allowed my older travel companions to set the pace and activities. When I found Gilmag and spoke with Mary, I know this was the right company for our safari. She took the time to explain the details of our trip and was very specific when answering questions. Mary was very easy to work with when making changes to our itinerary and worked to give us the best value in lodging and camps. She stayed within our budget.
Our guide Nickson was an absolute treasure and was very knowledgeable of the national parks we visited (4 in total). He was kind, patient, and knew where to find the Big Five... even the rhinos we saw in Ngorongoro NP. Nickson even went out of his way to find a step when he saw auntie was having difficulty getting out of the safari vehicle. This is the kind of detail that made traveling on safari a little easier and more enjoyable.
We saw a lot of wildlife up close and personal. My favorite was the elephants and I could watch them all day long. There were lions walking alongside our safari vehicle... so close you could reach out and touch them. We saw a pride with 12 cubs and 6 adult females. There were leopards up a tree and cheetahs under a tree. Hippos sunbathing!!! The list goes on and on.....
This was, by far, the best holiday I've had in my life!!! Thank you Mary, Gilbert, and Nickson for making it happen.
