Best Choice !!
We did our search and concluded to have a 3 day ( 2 nights ) safari from Arusa to Serengeti and Ngorongoro at the end of November.
James was ALWAYS there answering all of our questions no matter how silly or not they may seemed.
He organised us to stay in lodges instead of Camping ( of course with an extra charge but this was what we wanted to do ) and actually was able to change the schedule of the organised Safari 2 days before the safari in order to please us.
In addition, when we asked for an extra excursion before our flight, he suggested the Materuni village with the coffee beans and the coffee experience instead of a day hike in Kilimanjaro . We LOVED the extra excuersion!
John his driver for the excursion was super cool and friendly, always there to answer all of our questions and willing to explain more about their culture.
We loved our choise and are thankfull that we found African Polecat Safaris, James and John .
DEFINATELY suggest them ! Reach them, explain in detail what you have in mind, what you want them to prepare for you and feel relaxed that everything will go as planned.

Superb
We had the trip of a lifetime with beach holidays in Zanzibar at either end and an amazing 5 day safari in the middle covering Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. The trip was meticulously and efficiently organised by the very accommodating Marta and every detail was paid attention to so that it all went smoothly, as planned and without hitch. The safari itself exceeded our expectations; we saw all the big five and a lot more besides. The quality and extent of the sightings was down to the expertise and experience of our brilliantly knowledgeable guide Erasto. He was fantastic - we learnt a lot about the animals and the environment. He also catered for us incredibly well with the most amazing lunches in fantastic locations. We would highly recommend the company and the guide. The hotels on Safari were very special and well chosen and we experienced a truly exceptional holiday.

Excellent tour
I used Malagasya travel for my trip to Madagascar in October 2022. I contacted them via their website and I received a response very quickly. At first, they gave me a custom itinerary but it was too long for me as I didn't have that much time in hand. So I gave them my requirements and the locations that I wanted to visit. They immediately reverted with a customized itinerary based on my needs. Their service was impeccable right from the start. The driver they assigned me spoke excellent English and the whole tour was a breeze. They even organized a dinner for me on the last night of my tour. Last but not the least, they helped me with the postcards that I wanted to send to my friends across Europe, North America, and Asia. I'd highly recommend that you book your tour of Madagascar with them whenever you're planning to visit it.

Wonderful experience!
Wayne from Kruger Safari Co. was a very reliable, professional and helpful partner in preparing and organizing for a three day Kruger park safari. We were based in Pretorius Camp and did great game drives and game walks seeing many beautiful animals. Accommodation was organized in luxury tents and the food which has been prepared by Hilda was gorgeous. Wayne also provided us with a lot of helpful information’s regarding travel, safety and health issues. I strongly recommend to organize your safari with Wayne and we’re looking forward already to our next trip to Kruger.

Punctual, professional, knowledgeable, Friendly
We did a one day tour to the falls and coffee plantation with drop off at Arusha. It was a really enjoyable experience. The falls was breathtaking. The guide was super friendly and we had loads of fun singing and dancing at the coffee plantation. We had requested to be dropped off at Arusha at 6pm. The guide planned and managed the time so well, that we were exactly in Arusha at 6pm sharp.

Best new year ever
Great stay in Tanzania with CHAMELA TANZANIA SAFARI. Departed from December 26, 2022 to January 1, 2023 inclusive. We had the possibility to give him our wishes for visits, but having never been to Africa and having never done a safari, we asked him to manage everything, Joël concocted a stay with little onions for us! everything was perfect. The choice of parks, places to sleep (including 2 nights in a camp in the middle of nature with warthogs and hyenas near our tent at night (no danger for us, you just must not go out without the guards at night: -) ) You only experience this once in your life. All that is the performance of Joël, The boss of Tanzania! But it was also our guide Chabani who made this adventure unique and just perfect. Chabani has lynx eyes and sees well-hidden animals sometimes a few hundred meters away (this was the case for the Black Rhinoceros that Chabani spotted when we couldn't see anything except a black spot. But the camera and the binoculars confirmed the beautiful catch !! It is thanks to this catch that we are proud to be able to say that we saw the BIG 5 (the lion, the leopard, the elephant, the black rhinoceros and the buffalo. not always easy in just 1 week. Thank you very much Chabani for that and thank you a thousand times Joël for concocting great stays and choosing your team well. They do a great job and represent you well.
Thank you again a thousand times Chabani for sharing your country, your culture and the way of life of Tanzanians. You speak French very well !
you know how to adapt to our rhythm and our desires for discovery while making sure that we have plenty to see. You are very professional and drive very well
We would love to come back on safari with CHAMELA TANZANIA SAFARI! But this time, only in the middle of nature, sleeping only in tents. And always with Chabani! Never change a winning team :-)

Fantastic and well worth it
Our driver Max was wonderful and the food Salem cooked was incredible.
We saw tons of animals (Big 5 minus cheetah)! The tents were nice, sleeping bags clean, and the sleep pads were comfy. I have a sensitive back so I brought an extra sleeping pad and stacked it on top and slept great. The staff set up all the tents and camping materials so everything was easy.
The camp grounds were well equipped, second one had a cafe, and all had showers. Definitely wasn’t worried about not choosing tents over more expensive lodging.
Bring small snacks since you meals are a little spaced out, but when you eat they feed you very well.

4 adorable days in contact with a wild nature
It was an awesome experience to get to the safari with Cubs Expeditions! Many thanks to Humphrey, he was in touch every time when I was asking him for anything. Everything was well-coordinated: airport transfers, hotel check-in, safari itself. The food was varied every day :) Our guide was a real professional, i think that he knows everything about Africa nature and history.
A lot of animals we saw really close, just in 2 meters of our car. Zebras and baboons are came to the Simba camp, and they almost didn't afraid of humans. The car was comfortable, it has a few binoculars and everyone can use it. We were surprised that there were no mosquitos. On the way to Serengeti park, Ngorongoro and Tarangire we met a lot of masai childrens and treated them with some sweets through the opened car window.
Many thanks to Cubs Expeditions!
