Professional, friendly, and knowledgeable
Wow, our safari experience was absolutely incredible! My husband and I went for our honeymoon, and we were already super excited about the trip. But guess what? It was even better than we imagined!
First of all, everyone we met in mainland was incredibly friendly and helpful. Joshua picked us up from the airport, and our guide, Andrew, was just amazing! He was the best! So much so that other guides would tell us we were with the legend or even ask to follow us because they didn’t know their way as well as Andrew.
Andrew’s expertise and knowledge were truly impressive. He knew exactly where to look, and with a little bit of luck, we even spotted the big five! We saw lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and 3 RHINOS! And there were so many other amazing animals too, like wildebeest, zebras, pumbas, beautiful cheetahs, giraffes, and more.
Andrew was also incredibly knowledgeable and would take the time to answer any questions we had. He explained everything and why things were a certain way or why animals did certain things. For example, I learned that cats use their whiskers to sense whether their prey has died before starting eating.
The lodges we stayed in at the Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro were also great. Our tented camps were especially close to nature and had delicious food. We could hear hyenas, buffalos, and lions nearby, which was so cool.
We also decided to camp for one night at the Tarangire, and the company arranged everything for us. We had our own private chef, and he made all our meals, which were delicious!
This was our first time doing a safari, and it was an experience that changed our brain chemistry. We went to Zanzibar after the safari, and for the first time ever, we were sad to go to a beach. Not only was this a bucket list experience, but it turned out to be an amazing, truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. Imagine, we came in January and we got to see thousands of Wildebeest and Zebras moving south to the Serengeti— that was simply the most beautiful thing to see.
Oh, and before I forget, Wakanda was also fantastic! After researching multiple companies and chatting with them, we chose Wakanda because we had the pleasure of speaking with Good Luck, who was incredibly friendly, approachable, and worked with us to make our dream trip a reality.
Therefore, if you are decided whether to book with Wakanda or not, I would HIGHLY suggest you do (and ask for Andrew to be your guide). Although this trip is a once-in-a-lifetime trip, we surely hope we come back in a few years.

One in a lifetime safari
We had a wonderful experience with Telly Africa Safaris. We booked with them a 4 day safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire and we had a great time. Everything was carried out according to schedule and as we had agreed in advance. Special thanks to Happy Mukas, who organized our safari seamlessly and was always available for any changes and modifications we made during the preparation. Special thanks to our driver Tomsifu who knows where exactly to go, when we should wait for animal and thanks to whom we were able to see so many animals. In conclusion, we are very happy that we chose Telly Africa Safaris for our adventure in Tanzania and when we return we will hire them again.

Small Wonderful Travel Company in the North Tanzania
Small and authentic tour operator based in the Northen Tanzania. The journey, with them, was unforgettable. Miranda and Roko are so nice, nice people! They provided assistance before and during all my stay in Tanzania. I visited different areas and I stayed safe in contact with nature and animals, campings booked were fine and the food was plentiful and tasty . I also discovered uncrowded and peaceful areas thanks to them. During the trip We had some problems with the cars due to bad roads conditions , they solved them very fast. It can happen, you are in Tanzania! I highly reccomend this small company if you are looking something different and special.

Brilliant safari with a packed itinerary and great guide
We were on a 4 day safari with Axis and it was the best experience of my life. The guide Jack was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, taking us around the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru national park. The booking process was easy, I had great communication from Philip to assist in making the booking and having everything in place. I would highly recommend booking a safari with Axis.

Well-organized safari with a fantastic guide
We had a really great time, with one night at Lake Nakuru and two nights in the Masai Mara. Our guide, Ken, was excellent and shared many interesting stories and insights about the sights and the country in general. Would definitely recommend.
