Into the Wild!
We had booked a 3 day Safari with ZAFS for 2 days Serengeti and 1 day Nghoroghoro in the month of August 2023, immediately after our Kilimanjaro Trek with ZAFS itself. The safari was a one of a kind wild and excellent experience. I am particularly amazed with the stay in the middle of the jungle with growls and footsteps so near to our tent! That experience was adventurous and wild! Wont forget ever, the shivers that went through my body when we tried to just open up the zipper of the tent model room and heard the growls and movement so near! We were welcomed to the camp by 3 lions drinking water and walking past us! In the safari, we could spot almost all of the Big 5... It was unfortunate that we couldnt see the Rhino...we were hoping for spotting it in Nghoroghoro but couldnt. Except for that disappointment, everything was great and well arranged. The Drivers were kind and well behaved. The packed lunch was filling and enough for the tiring drive day. There was enough water in the jeep. The vehicle was comfortable for the terrain we are driving through. The sights of sunset and landscape was a great experience. The vastness of the Serengeti is unfathommable! It was truely an African experience! Thank you ZAFS for giving us the best taste of Africa! It was a real creation of the National Geographic channel images all through!
I had booked for a Air Balloon Flight too in Serengeti which was a mind blowing experience and bucket list item! The morning flight and we could spot many animals too! The pilot was experienced and keeping us entertained all through and made us feel very comfortable and the breakfast thereafter with a celebrating champagne was an awesome treat!

Fantastic!
I did a solo tour around Tanzania and my tour guide Johnson was amazing, the best driver out of all of the others. He was so good at spotting all the animals and getting into good photo spots. I can't recommend FIF Tours enough, they were very flexible and managed to let me see everything even though I was by myself.

4 day safari Amboseli Tsavo West/East
I did a 4 day safari to Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East National Park.
It is an one-off experience.
I did the safari with Kenya bush expedition, my tour guide was Joseph, a brilliant guy with a good knowledge of the animals and the savannah, I have learnt a lot from him
I do recommend the safari to everyone.

Incredible tour company - best experience
Absolutely exceptional - from the booking and organisation to the day-to-day experiences, lodges, food and beautiful scenery.
Africa Adventure Vacations were brilliant. The customer service was out of this world. Robert organised everything for us, and we paid directly from an Australian bank account to the Ugandan bank. It was smooth and easy to coordinate. The cost was significantly cheaper booking directly allowing us to take advantage of the incredible lodges and accommodation booked.
It was a dream trip - we saw and experienced everything we wanted to - from lions hunting at night, to hippos wading through the lakes, elephants crossing roads and baboons jumping on the truck. It was just a great adventure from start to finish.
We cannot recommend AAV enough. Our guide Abdul met us at the airport and then he ensured we had everything we needed from that point on. A dream come true.
Don't hesitate and book today!

The owner is dedicated and so is the tour guide
Recently, my wife and I traveled to Tanzanian prairie to follow the great migration of animals. This is the safari of a lifetime. We were lucky to have chosen the right time for our safari and even more luckier to have chosen the right tour operator. Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club is a local travel agency in Arusha. The owner is very dedicated and greets guests personally. We arrived around one in the morning due to flight delay. But the owner was still waiting for us at the hotel. The next morning, the owner rushed back again to the hotel to see us off for our safari. During the safari, the owner would often care about our daily life through the driver. We pay tribute to owner. We are also grateful to him for arranging an excellent and dedicated driver and guide for us. Joshua, who has more than ten years of safari experience, gallops on the prairie, and is very familiar with the roads. Safari requires experience and luck. under Joshua's guidance, we not only saw the Big Five of Africa, but also witnessed the spectacular scene of thousands of wildebeests crossing the Mara River. We had a great eight days on the prairie with Joshua and we will miss him. We wish Joshua, his wife and children a happy life.

Not a good value
The advertised 10 day itinerary was actually 8.5 days.
If you don't do the optional tours, you'll be alone at camp for 15-20 hours over the trip.
If you do do the optional tours, the price of the trip doubles.
Pressure to tip. Even forced to tip $10pp once.
Bus: It's dirty because it doesn't get deep cleaned. It's dangerous because it's just a plywood shell with plate glass windows all around (good view though). And it broke down so we were stranded by the highway.
Guide: It felt like the tour guide and/or operator were going from kickback to kickback.
Cook: 3 out of 5 stars. Lunch was nasty sandwiches.
Safari: Incredible. Chobe is an awesome place, and the drivers (3rd party) are good at what they do.
Africa: Great experience, don't let ATC jeopardize it.

Excellent detail oriented tour operator
We booked our 9 days of Tanzania Safari tour with MMS. We contacted the owner Talib, bit late in our planning process but he was very accommodating and worked with us with lots of patience, finalizing the itinerary and securing the bookings at lodges/campsites of our choosing.
Our trip started at Nairobi JOMO international airport, as Syed from MMS was waiting for us. The plan was to transfer us to our Hotel in Moshi but as a last minute change, we wanted to stop at friend’s house for lunch. Syed agreed without hesitation though he even brought some packed lunch for us to save time during a long drive.
We reached to Arusha at around 8pm for a quick stop at their office where Daniel Mitawas and Husain from MMS waiting for us for a quick briefing. All arrangements very quite neat and well coordinated including a quick meeting a day before with Ali -our guide for Kilimanjaro day hike on Day 3, meeting and greeting with Talib before embarking for the exciting part of 9 days Safari with driver-guide Remi.
The safari experience with MMS turned out to be quiet better than expected. Remi was very friendly, knowledgeable and respectful. The vehicle was very clean everyday throughout our trip, well equipped with enough drinking water and tea made and served by Remi at the lunch time during safari- loved it!!
Remi made our trip more interesting and enjoyable with his vast knowledge about the animals and birds, telling us names of those birds (even repeating them every time we see them but forget or mis-spells the names) and driving us to the right spot at the right time, especially the wild beast migration at Northern Serengity.
Overall, we were really impressed with the quality of service and professionalism thorough out from planning to execution of our Tanzania Safari. Everyone from MMS were so helpful, friendly and supportive that made our experience even better.
I would definitely recommend MMS to anyone looking for a reliable tour operator for Tanzania.
