Adventurous, best service, and a blast of fun.
5/5

Our safari with Plex Africa Safari was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Tanzania. From the very beginning, everything was organized, professional, and stress-free.

A huge thank you to Ricardo and Aicha, who were incredible guides throughout the experience. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had the best safari possible. We booked a private safari, and they made the experience feel very personal by taking the time to search for every animal we hoped to see. They exceeded every expectation we had.

Communication was excellent from start to finish. The team kept us updated every step of the way, arrived on time for hotel pickup, and made the entire day run smoothly. The pricing was also very fair for the quality of the experience we received.

Even though we didn’t go in with many expectations, Ricardo and Aicha completely surpassed them. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to giving us an unforgettable experience made all the difference.

If you’re visiting Zanzibar or Tanzania and are considering a safari, we highly recommend Plex Africa Safari. You won’t be disappointed!

An outstanding Arusha experience, especially for birders
5/5

We visited Tanzania in mid-June and had three transition days in Arusha before and after our safari, so we booked the Arusha city tour with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip.

Our guide, Isra, arrived at our hotel ahead of time each day. The vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, with a dedicated driver, allowing Isra to focus entirely on guiding and answering our questions. Since it was just the two of us, he was very flexible and adjusted the itinerary to match our interests. In the first day, we ended up spending several enjoyable hours exploring the Central Market, which became one of our favorite experiences in Arusha. We enjoyed the tour so much that we booked Isra again for another day to continue exploring the city and the Maasai Market. After we finished our safari and returned to Arusha, we spent our final day with him visiting Lake Duluti and a local coffee farm near Arusha.

What impressed us most was Isra's knowledge and genuine passion for sharing his country. Before our safari, he introduced us to Tanzanian history, culture, wildlife, and everyday life, which gave us a much deeper appreciation of everything we experienced later in the national parks. We had many enjoyable conversations about nature, Tanzanian culture, his experiences as a safari guide, and the daily lives of local people. We learned far more than we expected from a city tour. He also recommended several local restaurants (Uzunguni City Park and Khan's Barbeque), all of which were authentic and excellent. Throughout all three days, Isra was kind, patient, professional, and gentle. As two female travellers, we always felt comfortable, safe, and well looked after.

As birdwatchers, we were especially delighted by his knowledge of and enthusiasm for birds. Not all safari guides are knowledgeable about birds, so if you're a birder, you'll definitely appreciate touring with Isra.

Whether you are looking for a short introduction to Arusha or considering Isra as your safari guide, we highly recommend Tanzania Songbirds Safaris. It was an excellent experience from beginning to end.

Unforgettable and mindblowing Safari experience in beautiful and breathtaking Kenya.
5/5

We booked our Kenya safari through Axis Africa Expedition and Safaris, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Tabitha was wonderful to deal with—always prompt in replying to our emails, patient with our questions, and she even offered us a great discounted package. When we met her at the Nairobi office, she was just as warm and professional in person. Axis also provided a comfortable yet rugged Toyota 4x4 safari vehicle with a pop-up roof that was perfect for game viewing and photography, and every pickup and drop-off—from the Nairobi office to our camps in the parks—was perfectly on time. Everything ran like clockwork.
The biggest highlight, however, was our incredible guide, Charles, affectionately known as "Sir Charles." His knowledge of wildlife, sharp instincts, and understanding of animal behaviour made every game drive unforgettable. Whether it was finding the famous Black Rock Pride in the Maasai Mara, positioning us perfectly for an unforgettable elephant crossing in Amboseli, or sharing fascinating insights about every animal we encountered, he consistently exceeded our expectations. His excellent coordination with other guides, tireless focus during long drives between parks, and genuine passion for Kenya's wildlife made this the trip of a lifetime. Thank you, Tabitha, Sir Charles, and the entire Axis Africa team—we couldn't have asked for a better safari experience. Five stars are simply not enough!

Highly recommend tour
5/5

This was one of the best tours I have been on! The day started with a pickup directly outside my Airbnb. The pickup was on time and it dropped me off at the train station with proper instructions which made it a 1000 times easier to navigate everything. After reaching Morogoro I had another pickup already waiting for me which took me to Mikumi National Park. There I met my guide Jackson who gave me the best safari ever! He put in his 100% to show me all the animals that he could. And I saw all of them super close like Elephants, Lions, Impala, Pumba, Giraffes, Zebras, Buffaloes, Wildebeest, Hippos and even a crocodile. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. The lunch was buffet and it was very tasty. The ride back to morogoro train station was great too. After arriving at Dar es Salaam I already had a pickup waiting for me which dropped me off directly at my Airbnb. This was the most mind blowing and marvelous safari ever and the convenience and smoothness of everything just added a cherry on top! I would 100% recommend this safari!!!!!

Highly recommend Tanzania Choice
5/5

Our family of four (2 parents/twin 10-year-olds) had an excellent experience traveling with Tanzania Choice Safaris, and we highly recommend them. It was important to us to choose a Tanzania-based company, but Brenda's American origins made the communication and cultural interpretation particularly easy, especially since our family had never visited east Africa before. Brenda worked closely with us to craft our desired itinerary, including incorporating a short non-summit Kilamanjaro hike that was more accessible to the kids, and promptly answered all our many questions. Thanks to the knowledge and expertise of the staff (special kudos to Festo and Leslie) all parts of our trip were a success, both the hike and the safari that followed. We also felt safe and supported the entire time. Should we ever travel back to Tanzania, we would absolutely choose to work with Tanzania Choice again, and would recommend them to all our friends.

Amazing Safari!! I definitely recommend!
5/5

Everything was great from beginning to end. I’ve been on another safari that was much more expensive and not nearly as good. Considering the price I paid for this one, I’m very satisfied with my experience, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it just as much as I did!

So friendly and good company, useful, experienced and trustworthy! He gave me an amazing experience
5/5

I had the best time! Voyan was absolutely amazing, picking me up at 6am as requested so I could make the most of the day and taking me straight to the waterfall in good time. I was travelling alone and he made the 2.5hr car journey so fun, playing my favourite songs and teaching me new songs, and chatting the whole time! When I got there the trip just got better- I felt very safe hiking in his hands and the views were incredible! The coffee experience was just as good and i bought some to take home with me which was super cheap. We then took a rocky drive to the hot springs but once again, I felt so safe with Voyan who was clearly experienced and a good driver. The rope swing was so much fun and everyone was so friendly so I did not feel alone despite not being in a group! 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone to do it through a trusted company like Chuke Adventures!

An unforgettable safari experience with an amazing team!
5/5

Our family safari with MeekTrails Safaris was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Gadson and Daniel organized a flawless itinerary, ensuring we were comfortable and well-taken care of throughout the whole journey.
A very special thanks to Gino, our driver and guide. His knowledge, dedication, and excellent Spanish made a huge difference, making us feel completely at home and ensuring we didn't miss a single detail during the spectacular wildlife viewings.
We created wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. If you are looking for a trustworthy, professional, and passionate safari partner in Kenya, we highly recommend MeekTrails. Asante sana to the whole team for an unforgettable adventure!"

We Love Meijo!
5/5

We LOVED our experience with this company! Our guide Abduli took great care of us and made sure that we saw the big five. He made sure we got to everything on our list, even made an extra stop on the way back to Arusha to help us buy souvenirs. His English was so good and he also speaks German. Highly recommend requesting Abduli as your guide.
The food we were served throughout the trip was very tasty and we enjoyed staying in the tented camps, especially Serengeti Classic View. The staff there were amazing and it was fun to stay in a glamping tent.
Can't recommend this company and Abduli enough. Tanzania and the Serengeti are so special and it was not crowded even during the busy season! You should go.
