Lifetime experience: magic!
We were in tanzania from the 17th of December to the 1st of January 2024 as a family with 2 boys, 16 and 6 years old. The whole experience was perfect and the trip was just magic. Tanzania Specialist have been perfect from the préparation and advice with Clara to the guide Andrew who pas competent, easy going, very nice and funny and who quickly became a friend. The lodges selected were top with a special mention for the Mbali Mbali Sorry seregenti for their fantastic sense of welcoming (singing and dancing), the breathtaking views and the service. Special mention to the Manyara Secret as well for the whole very high level prestation and for being so nice and attentive. Whaow factor for those 2. The Ngare Sera Mountain lodge, the Tangier Simba lodge and the Karutu Samba lodge were top too. Only the Embalakai Authentic is OK but below.
On Mafia Island, our stay at the Echo Shamba Kilole lodge was great too with top dives and the whale sharks :-)
We highly recommend Tanzania Specialist... everything was perfect...

Exceptional at their work
I with a group of friends have been to various tours in Africa such as ,Zimbabwe ,South Africa,kenya & Tanzania but in comparison to all , I authoritatively say that Uganda is really the pearl of Africa .
The trip commenced with the kampala city tour where we visited different holy places ,cultural heritage sites ,historical sights,slums and markets we used bikes commonly known as "bodabodas". We then embarked on a journey to the source of the longest River in the world which is a beehive of activities such as boat rides, white water rafting, kayaking, water biking and many more .The visit to the spectacular sipi falls in the east ,coffee tours and community tours in the north was so amazing to experience.
We had an opportunity to see Leopards,lions, giraffes ,elephants ,buffalos in Kidepo and Murchison falls National Parks not forgeting the interface with Rhinos at Zziwa rhino sanctuary.
Our major trip highlight was Gorilla and Chimpanzee trekking since it was our first time to encounter with them ,watching baby gorillas play with huge silver backs ,the way they behaved around us was so incredible
We really enjoyed our stay in uganda and I would recommend Stone City Tours any day any time if you need an adventurous tour in Uganda.

Amazing experience with Fede Tours
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a one-week trip to Masai Maara and Nakuru Reserve organized by Fede Tour and Logistics, and it was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, Fede Tour and Logistics demonstrated their exceptional expertise in trip planning and execution. The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, ensuring we experienced the best of both destinations while maximizing our time and minimizing travel logistics. The top-notch accommodations offered a comfortable and immersive stay amidst breathtaking natural surroundings.
Every day held a new adventure and a wealth of incredible wildlife encounters. Our knowledgeable guide, Fredicrk, from Fede Tour and Logistics, was an expert in spotting elusive creatures, passionate about conserving the environment and educating us about the local ecosystems. He effortlessly shared his wealth of knowledge, making each game drive an educational and awe-inspiring experience. Whether we were witnessing the Big Five in Masai Maara or marvelling at the abundant birdlife in Nakuru Reserve, Fredrick's attention to detail and care ensured that we were in the right place at the right time for unforgettable wildlife sightings. I highly recommend Fede Tour and Logistics for their exceptional service, attention to detail, and commitment to creating a remarkable and immersive safari experience.

The best journey in a foreign land is having a good guardian
Sacred Wilderness Expedition met my expectations on every level. Godlisten the driver/guide was informative, friendly and made sure we saw as many animals as possible. Sacred Wilderness Expedition made my first Safari experience a great one. If I have the opportunity to go on one again, I would definitely go through Sacred again. I would recommend this company to family and friends

My third trip with Viatu - and still amazing
I booked my trip with Viatu on short notice because I wanted to escape the cold weather. My travel agent Simone was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my interests and what I was looking for in a safari, and she recommended KZN as an off-the-beaten-track destination that would offer a more authentic and immersive experience. I was initially hesitant to go to KZN instead of the more popular Kruger National Park, but Simone assured me that I would not be disappointed.
And she was right! KZN is a beautiful and diverse region with a rich wildlife population. I saw so many rhinos, elephants, lions, leopards, and giraffes. I also loved the opportunity to interact with local communities and learn about their culture. Simone helped me arrange all of my transportation, accommodation, and activities, and she was always available to answer my questions.
I will be back for sure!

Magic
We have just returned from our safari with Kimgoni Tanzania Safaris and we still have stars in our eyes. The organization was perfect. The agency director came to explain the program to us on the day of our arrival. The team that accompanied us was great. Our guide Amiss, competent, enthusiastic, considerate and our driver, an excellent driver and extremely keen on finding animals, allowed us to have a dream safari. The accommodation was good quality and we really fell in love with the Masai lodge at Lake Natron and the lodge within the Seregenti. We dreamed so much thanks to the animals, the landscapes and the meetings with the tribes which were very powerful. It was a magical trip beyond our expectations.

It was great! Best value for the money
We had a special request - 4 nights on safari and Mt. Kenya trek. It was planned all according to our wishes. Our safari guide and driver (Kasper) was great. He was able to find all the animals. Most of the time he was the first! He was able to get really close to the animals. Best choice.
Mt. Kenya trek turned out great as well. Our guide Kevin got us up and down safely.
If we go to Kenya or our friends again, we will always recommend KARIBU!

A Heartwarming Safari Adventure with Benson Safaris Tanzania
I am writing to express my deepest appreciation for the incredible safari experience you provided to my family and me during our Christmas trip in December. Our guide, Amini, played a pivotal role in making our adventure unforgettable, and the accommodations, particularly at Maramboi, were nothing short of magical. Additionally, meeting Benson, the owner, added a personal touch that made our journey even more special.
Travelling with my children, my goal was to create lasting memories, and Benson Safaris not only met but exceeded our expectations. Amini, our guide, was exceptional in every sense. His expertise, passion, and warmth made the safari a cherished family experience. Amini went above and beyond to ensure that my children were not only entertained but also educated about the wonders of Tanzania's wildlife.
The choice of accommodations, including the Tented Camps and Lodges, significantly contributed to the overall enjoyment of our trip. However, Maramboi stands out as a highlight that will forever be etched in our memories. Witnessing elephants enjoying a swim while we relaxed by the pool was a surreal and breathtaking moment. The unique blend of luxury and nature at Maramboi added an extra layer of enchantment to our stay.
Meeting Benson, the owner of the company, was a delightful surprise and a testament to the personal touch that sets Benson Safaris apart. Benson's passion for his work, evident in the care and attention to detail throughout our journey, was truly commendable. His generous gift of 1 kilo of organic coffee beans, sourced from his own farm, showcased not only his commitment to quality but also his genuine hospitality. It was a heartwarming gesture that added a unique and personal touch to our safari experience.
In conclusion, I can't thank Benson Safaris enough for turning our Christmas safari into a dream come true for my children. The personalized touch, Amini's exceptional guidance, the captivating accommodations, and the warm encounter with Benson created memories that will last a lifetime. I wholeheartedly recommend Benson Safaris to anyone seeking an extraordinary and family-friendly safari experience.
Thank you once again for the exceptional journey.
