True Adventure with a Purpose. Excellent service from Baboon Budget Safaris.
Mt. Kenya showcases the true beauty of Africa. The trip was a great experience and the hike itself left me breathless. Baboon Badger Safari made the experience more special. Their service is tops. Very professional and friendly, and always willing to help and go the extra mile. This was one of my BEST adventure experiences. Thanks to Baboon Budget Safaris.

AMAZING
Just had the most amazing trip with Serengeti Wakanda! Bartho was super efficient in the communication over WhatsApp and he’s always quick to reply. We signed up for the private lodge safari tour and the lodges arranged for us were amazing. Food was good too.. almost too much everyday. Andrew, our guide and driver was very knowledgeable and he drives super well. He knows Serengeti inside out and took routes that were not know to many drivers. He’s very good at spotting animals from far too. Kudos to him for the long driving hours everyday.

Accommodating and personal
Estleon Adventures started by supplying us a personalized itinerary with multiple stops to see everything Kenya has to offer, at a great price point. They were very accommodating to our requests prior to the trip. Once the trip began, we met our driver Isaac who was absolutely fantastic. If I return to Kenya in the future I will go out of my way to ensure Isaac is my safari driver. He was extremely kind, personable, and knowledgeable about the wildlife and parks we visited. During our trip, we learned that Estleon or the hotels had made a mistake with our booking, and we had to switch the order of some of places we were visiting. Estleon made up for it by upgrading one of our stays to the intimate Lerai, but on the other hand at our last stop we only had 3 rooms instead of 4, but we were able to make it work. Overall we were very pleased with our safari and recommend it to others, and were absolutely grateful for all the effort Isaac put in to making our trip an amazing experience.

Had a great Amboseli safari experience
I did the three day Amboseli safari tour with Dennis and Alex and I had a great time! Saw every type of animal in the park, and Alex is a safe driver who knows the park really well. I would recommend Morningstar to anyone looking to do a tour in East Africa.

Amazing in Every Way
There were so many things that Brenda did for us that it's hard to think of all of it in the same moment.....first, the communication with Brenda was clear, quick, and easy. I appreciate quick responses/accountability and that was exactly my experience with Brenda. Second: I love how we started big and pared down, as opposed to starting small and adding on. It gave me a chance to see everything that was available to us, and allow me to pick and choose what experiences were most important to us. Third, I had a TON of questions all along the way while we were determining the itinerary, and Brenda answered all of them, not just with a simple answer, but going beyond with explanations and other data that she knew would be important to add. Next: when we arrived in Dar, she literally had EVERY detail covered. We never wondered who or when we needed to meet to take a drive our flight to our next stop. She was always available if it was necessary, but it wasn't for most of the trip. We even booked ourselves some time on Zanzibar, and she had tips and contacts that she shared with us there. Leslie, our guide, was amazingly knowledgeable, and calm under pressure. We actually got stranded/stuck in the Serengeti, twice in one day, at no fault of Brenda's or our Leslie's. Leslie bravely walked away from us in the locked vehicle with nothing but an iphone, in pitch black, and was back in 30 minutes with a bunch of help and we were out and moving in no time. It was a very exciting part of our adventure! :). The price of the trip was right around what I was expecting; we didn't want to go luxury, but we loved every camp we visited.
Bottom line: it was a trip of a lifetime, one we will never ever forget. Brenda is a big part of why it went so well, and I will always be thankful to her for that! You will NOT go wrong if you choose to go with Tanzania Choice Safari's!!!

Wonderful experience with an incredible team
Our group of 10 had a great time with Nziza. The guides were all wonderful to work with and very flexible with our group having different arrival and departure times. We had a great time and would highly recommend!

Great friendly service!
We reached out to Lovely Safari when we decided to visit Tanzania. We told them what we were interested in, what our travel & hiking experience was, and the time frame we had for travel. They provided a suggested itinerary with cost and we adjusted it to fit our needs. Communication via email was easy, even with the time difference. Wire transferring the fees was a little confusing, but not the fault of Lovely Safari. We used Wise to pay the balance.
We communicated with Jesca primarily leading up to our trip, and then met Joseph at the airport. We didn't realize that he would be staying with us for the duration of our stay in Tanzania. We got along with him well, so it was a pleasant surprise! We experienced a few things like that which may have been lost in translation or different styles of communication...but everything worked out lovely.
Joseph set us up with our guides for Kilimanjaro, and even ended up hiking to the summit with us for his first time! We ended up being a little family exploring the country together, and we ended up nicknaming him Broseph, because he really did become our little brother! Joseph coordinated all of our travel, food, lodging, etc. We literally didn't have to do a thing or think about anything except enjoying our trip.
After hiking Kilimanjaro, he became our safari driver and guide, and this is where he really thrived! He is an excellent driver and is very knowledgeable about the national parks and the animals. He has great eyes for spotting the wildlife and he was able to find us every animal we could have hoped for! He then joined us for our flight to Zanzibar, where he connected us (and joined us!) for our ocean adventures.
Joseph is very easy going, and would be best guiding easy going travelers who like to smile and laugh. His English is wonderful and we would be lucky to reunite with him again in the future. Thank you Broseph! We love you!

A lifetime experience
We went my husband and I with Great Image for a Safari tour starting from Arusha. It was an amazing experience thanks to our excellent guide Mathew and our very good driver Mbeche. Both of them were very kind and extremely professionnal. We had the chance to see many animals and the team was excited to make us discover the big 5. The food was very good and tasty. We couldn’t ask for a better safari trip.

What a joyful moment we had
My favorite part of the experience was the beauty of nature and how well preserved the Tanzanian wildlife sanctuaries are. Our tour guide John was excellent! He made sure we got a full experience of the animals in their habitat. Watching them in their daily activities was simply astonishing. John was kind and attentive and explained everything in detail. He was a wealth of information and kept the narrative interesting. Booking directly with Amshar Serengeti Adventures was easy. Aron was extremely helpful and customized our tour for us. He also arranged for our road transfer -8 people - from United States, we all enjoyed our trip to Africa particularly for Tanzania wildlife experience. He did a superior job and never hesitated to help us with small details as we were preparing for our trip to Tanzania.
