Memories to last us a lifetime.........
My Husband and I also used Global Insight Safaris and our guide was Didimus. It was the most amazing experience of our lives. The service was incredible, to be honest, when I contacted Baraka for Safari, I became bit suspicious as he used to reply usually within 1-2 hours (even in the night). Also, this safari company is quite new and therefore had to search for how genuine they are, before transferring advance payment. Recommendations from friends about the company made me to trust them. Baraka helped to arrange and make our honeymoon safari itinerary in the best convenient way. I was completely satisfied with his responses towards my all questions and queries.
Our guide, Didmus, had lots of experience and he knew all the birds and other small animals. We really liked him, and we were very lucky because we had the chance to see the big five, which, as he told us, may not be very easy. And he also provided us with binoculars, which was very useful when you can only see an animal several meters away from you. We also did an extension to northern Serengeti to watch the great migration crossing. There we could actually watch animals more closely, and we had the chance to watch a herd of lionesses hunting a zebra.
The overall experience was great, we loved the safari, loved our guide. The company matched our expectations, which were very high, since it was the trip of our dreams. Baraka was very helpfull, always helping us and answering our questions and doubts, and Nadia too. We would definitly come back with Global Insight Safaris

Amazing Safari Experience
From the moment I contacted Baraka, I felt reassured. He responded promptly and cheerfully. He helped me customize our safari, accommodating me and my wife. We stayed in all types of accommodation from mobile camps and lodges to a fancy hotel in Zanzibar. Baraka's recommendations were spot on, The overall experience with Global Insight Safaris couldn't be better, they've exceeded the high expectations i always had, it was definitely the key to make our honeymoon a dream.
The booking process perfectly handled by Baraka, always answering my questions extremely promptly. He understood quickly me and my wife's preferences, magnificent on tailoring our itinerary.
Airport pick-up and briefing given by Nadia , where all the details for the safari were carefully reviewed.
A special compliment to our guide Didimus Mato, very knowledgeable, experienced and always friendly. We learned tons about all the fauna and flora of the parks visited. Didimus is absolutely outstanding in detecting animals from far away while driving the 4x4, and yes... we got the BIG 5!!
Thank you so much...... Global Insight Safaris

everything was organized and well done
it would be better if there was a better and proper clarification of whats included and whats not.
also some advise from the guide as to where to buy souveniers in order to get better prices and not get ripped off by sellers would be a plus

Review about Mikumi National Park by SnowmanStudios.de
We encountered ellies, hippos, and lot of of other game. sadly we couldn´t see any cats, but we had only one day there. The birdlife was crazy.
River cruise was excellent but safari drive was more like Dakar Ralley
The Chobe river cruise was excellent. Plenty of wildlife, relaxing and a great sunset. I did a safari on a safari vehicle, 9 people and it was dusty and more akin to the Dakar Ralley I thought. Guide didn't take time to show in detail, everything was rushed.
My July trip 2015
I have been on safari many times, but this has been my best safari vacation ever.
Since I am particularly interested in elephants and lions, However, for a "first timer" the Serengeti National park is beautiful and the landscape is absolutely stunning
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
If anybody indicates lions and elephants as their main interest. then advice them to go to Serengeti and Ngorongoro However, I understand that my own concerns about off-road driving have influenced the decision to go to both Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.. Cheers to Northern Masailand Safaris

Flexible and reliable
As tanzania travellers having a few extra days to spend, we ran into Kevin of Zuri tours and safaris in Moshi. Kevin was able to arrange a day trip to the Kikuletwa hot springs near Moshi, then bring us to Arusha and even all the way to Dar es Salaam a few days later. Kevin is knowledgeable, resourceful and funny, and always checking if you're ok. He speaks perfect english, something you don't encounter at every local safari company. He knows how to make sure you enjoy, and even arranges local people to guide, while translating the swahili to english for you, so you really get to know a lot more about a place. Also, his company has very reasonable prices, just make sure to get a clear quote per person or for the whole group. Kevin will make sure there won't be any extra, hidden costs (which you absolutely don't always find around these parts). Would definitely make use of Kevin's services again.
