Amazing experience
We went private safari 4-days Serengeti and Ngorogoro. If i could do it one more time, i’d go only Serengeti, because you actually see everything you need to see there. Ngorogoro is beautiful by the nature but the animals you see are so far away.. Serengeti is huge park, so expect a long drive with no animals , but after you arrive to the right spot you realise it was worth the wait. We slept in camps that weren’t protected from the animals so during the night you stay in the tent making no noise because it’s dangerous! An amazing experience for me were the buffalos around our tents which filled me up with adrenaline. Thomas was amazing guide, he knows a lot of things but you gotta ask him and he’ll tell you everything! But you could do this 4 days program actually in 3 days.

A Very Good Experience
Raja tours was responsive to our inquiry. We made at least 5 inquiries during our search and Raja seemed to be the most reasonable. We sorta went blindly due to our short turnaround but ultimately it went better than we thought.
The tour guide and driver (Hassan) was a pure delight. He picked us up at home and got us to Selous Game Park. It was about a 5 hour drive there and back to Dar Es Salaam. We stopped along the way which was a bit odd for us during COVID but we went along with it. It was fine and we stayed distant. The game drive my was awesome. We saw everything, lions, hippos, giraffes, you name it.
The lodge we stayed at was spectacular. The Selous Lodge. It was much better than we expected. Very clean and inviting. The decorations were great and the bar and restaurant were so well kept. 5 stars. The swimming pool was a nice surprise. Quick mention for everyone is that the power goes out at 2230 each night and the heat inside the rooms was heat punishing. It was tough to sleep but fine nonetheless. The food was great and so were the people.
All in all, it was wonderful.

Amazing safari once in a lifetime experience
The locations/lodges were amazing beyond the expectations.
Drivers were nice Sahidi and Habibu were great guys.
Anita was easy to communicate and give the information on time.
Downside they charge a bank fee for payments with credit card of about 4-5% that was never mentioned.
In addition tips are mandatory and established amounts per day so a suggestion is to include it in the final price to don't run out of cash during the trip
Other than that everything was amazing every single day.
This time of the year was full of animals the migration is impressive and a lot animals are in calving season.

EXEMPLARY SERVICE
We had our reservations over travelling out of the USA amidst the pandemic. However, the thought of missing out on the Mara Migration outweighed our fears. On recommendation, we settled on AAS as our itinerary planners. From landing at The JKIA to spending the night in Nairobi and later travelling down to Maasai Mara via Narok, the trip was well planned and executed. I would highly recommend AAS.

Don’t joke with Sino Africa Safari, because they are so serious
We had a lovely safari with Sino Africa Safari and Ctip. We saw lot of animals, and adapted an elephant baby in Kenya. The tour was good because our global tour guide from Ctip was good, he brought a rice cooker from china, carry all the way to kenya.... The local Chinese tour guide was professional, explianed eveything about animal to us and also the culture, our driver guide was professional and nice too, always make our vehicle clean and have good eye sight to catch animals. One thing I remember most is that the African pig is so cute. They were chased cheetah but they forgot after sometime. We observed the whole story which can’t forget. We loved our safari, we will go with Ctrip and Sino Africa Safari again for another safari next time! We gave them four star because we lost our luggage when arriving Kenya on the first day. My wife's cloth and cosmetics were in the luggage, we went to Amboseli on Day 1 and we received our luggage on day 3 which took us too long to receive. Our local guide helped us to buy necessary stuffs after we lost our luggage in the airportt, thanks to him. Overall of the safari is very good.

In love in safari))
we had a 3 day safari (tarangiri, ngorongoro and manyara). picked up from the airport and taken to the place of overnight stay.
love the safari, I recommend taking more days to see more animals. seen at arm's length: giraffes, elephants, zebras, buffaloes, lions, monkeys ... it's just incredible))
very nice guide Fredy, it was as comfortable as possible with him ... he tried to show us all the animals that are in the parks (we saw a rhinoceros even ... about 150 meters away (they were looking for him all over the park).
my top recommendations for smile with us. good customer reference

Awesome service and quick response and more affordable than other operators.
I was very happy from start to finish with all the arrangements.
a few days before we went to Mabula we were contacted again and reminded.
They also hoped that we would have a good break.
That we did indeed! Was a much needed very enjoyable 3nights 4day stay.
look forward to using them again in the future.

It was amazing
Me and my girlfriend who's from Kenya did the big 5 safari.
It was really good, the tour guide was the best and tracked hyenas for me.
I've been to Tanzania before in the nature reserve, saw everything but hyenas there.
So I was really happy with our guide.
The food was good, but the same food every day which was a shame. But the chef was super friendly and funny.
The whole experience was fantastic except for the fact that the masai's called my girlfriend whore in Swahili, just cause she was with me, a white guy. It's truly hurtful that people haven't gotten further that we can see beyond skin color, ethnicity or things we can't control over. I didn't choose to be white, she didn't chose to be brown, but here we are in love trying to have a good time. She definitely didn't deserve that from Francis and he shouldn't be the one showing people around with that behavior and it's also weird that nobody said anything.
I hope this problem has been taken care of and that no one else has to experience the same thing.
