Serengeti great, ngonrongoro even better
Overall rating
4/5

We did a 4 day safari with SafariSoles and our great guide Raymond. Just us in the 4x4.
All the accommodation was clean and well looked after. It's important to note that in Serengeti you shouldn't expect luxury westernised hotels. Lodges and camps are exactly that. The staff are unfailingly polite and helpful.
The food is freshly prepared but simple. Don't expect loads of options.
We stayed at Serengeti Lodge, Sero tented camp and Rhino Lodge. Great and different experiences. You will hear the wildlife very close by.
We were lucky to see the big 5. You need luck but it helps if your guide is knowledgeable as ours was. The serengeti is vast, the ngonrongoro crater is absolutely amazing.
Breathtaking scenery looking down at the crater. The scenery at Rhino Lodge was good too.
The weather was hot but we were always comfortable. No issues with mosquitoes, tsetse flies were annoying in one zone but only temporarily.
Met a few Masai when stopping for lunch.

Worthy of being the first choice for an African visit
Overall rating
4/5

Tanzania is one of Africa’s main centres for wildlife safaris and from our short experience it deserves to be on everyone’s list. We went in February and there was plenty of wildlife and the weather wasn’t too hot.

The parks manage the influx of tourists well and the guides make every effort to minimise their presence on the wildlife. The safaris are supported by a variety of accommodation allowing choice based on price and facilities.

The people are welcoming, friendly and have an unexpected proficiency in the English language. At no time did we have concerns for our personal safety.

Tanzania has everything for a pleasurable experience and definitely imparts the desire to return.

4/5

James & Jimmy are really helpful in planning and executing the safari and communication is prompt.
All the accomodations are great.
Jimmy is super skilled as a driver on really difficult roads and his animal spotting skills are excellent along with information given about animals. All safaris start on time and are wonderfully and safely executed.
My only issue was with the food options at the camp in Amboseli. And the food given on budget safaris is less too. Carry snacks if you are a big water.

Overall a great Safari!
4/5

We had an amazing time with Karibu Safari. We could book spontaneously for the next day, the communication was great and everything worked out as planned. We stayed two nights at the Amboseli National Park, had an excellent camp with lovely people and an amazing view on the Kilimanjaro. We would definitely recommend to book a Safari here, the price is fair and they give their best to make you feel comfortable.

Great experience and amazing nature. Communication could be a bit better.
4/5

We had a very satisfactory experience during our 8 day tour that included Masaai Mara, Tangarire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The safaris were amazing. Although we opted for the budget tour, we were surprised a few times with upgrates in our accomodation. Food will not be a highlight of this trip as it's not usually not very varied.

The guides drove us around the parks and they make a huge effort to show us all the animals. They would always stop if you ask for and wait for you to take pictures. However, they not always provide a lot of information about the animals all the organizational details. They mainly focus on driving and show us the animals.

In general the tour was very well organized and everything worked out, but the communication could be a bit better. Bienvenido mixes a couple of other tour operators, which was not clear to us, so a few times we didn't fully know where to go or who to follow. We also didn't have enough information of the logistics to move around and we had some last minute changes, although we understand that it's not easy to put such a trip together. We have to say though that Kennedy answered all of our emails and messages straight away and was very helpful.

The tour operator was very outgoing, had knowledge of the area visited.
4/5

Horizonhues adventures are a reputable well recognized adventure company. They offer high class safari services that are enjoyable and refreshing to the visitors.
Following the tour, I enjoyed the conversations with the guide that went a long way in creating a lasting impression of the place.
Given another opportunity, I would opt for Horizonhues Adventures for a tour to visit a national park.
