Efficient, went the extra mile and superb in all accounts.
We had an 8 day tour of Ethiopia which was quite simply perfection in every way. Imagine Tours were super efficient - nothing was every too much trouble and they bent over backwards to make our stay superb in every way. I had 4 teenagers travelling with me and whilst they were sceptical to begin with, they love love loved every minute. Addis, Bahir Dar, Gondar, Simien Mountaints, Gondar again and then Lalibela. Every transfer was amazing and the guides and drivers couldn't have looked after us better. I would go as far to say, don't use any other company than Imagine Tours! We would love to go back and would definitely use them again. I have travelled all over the world and never dealt with a company who is of such a high standard!

Big recommendation!
We've had a great experience with this company. It all started with perfect communication from Maureen. She helps you with every question and demands you have. She setup a perfect trip for us which suited our needs completely. Before and after the safari, Maureen visited us to check if everything was to our expectations.
We visited four parks in four days (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro and Manyara) and had Eli as driver. Although he was a bit passive in communication, he is a very safe driver. He is a king in getting you upfront between the other jeeps to see everything from close by.
Thank you Maureen for this unforgettable adventure. When we come back we'll surely book again with African Savannah Trekkers!

Incredible journey through wildlife of Tanzania with Kiliholidays and the guide Laurian.
Organizing our safari in Tanzania I contacted over 30 operators and I was surprised by how diverse the offers were. So, I knew about the habit of bargaining in Tanzania but apart from that many tour operators started importunately and intrusively calling me on WhatsApp trying to sell their safari. Usually, they were shooting exorbitant prices and expecting me to bite. Having this as a background I really liked the communication with Mack from Kiliholidays. It was straight to the point, rational prices and no junk messaging. That made Kiliholidays stand out from the crowd from the beginning.
We contracted a three-day safari: Lake Manyara N.P., Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire N.P.. At all times everything went as agreed and expected. We were received upon our arrival to Arusha airport and transferred to the safari. The safari itself was an incredible experience that changed our view and perception of wildlife. All the documentary-style images were casted to our gaze and made alive.
All this was made possible by our guide Laurian. First, he is a great driver. At all time we felt safe. He drives very smooth and nicely, so we never felt dizzy. Second, he knows everything about the Tanzanian wildlife. We learned a lot from him. He also explained about the Maasai people and the organization of their tribes. Recognizing our interest in it he organized a visit to a real Maasai tribe which we enjoyed a lot. And as last but not least, a part of being a professional guide who showed and explained the essence and pure beauty of his country, Laurian is a person who listens. All the questions we asked were answered, all the requests we made were accomplished. With no need to remind.
Lauiran is exactly the guide you expect to have, I highly recommend requesting him.

Cool and unique trip organized by friendly people
Great and unique travel organization! They have created a huge amount of itineraries in different countries, which you can combine into your own personal travel plan. Contact with them before, during and after the trip via Whatsapp is really good and friendly. Pricing is really fair for what you get.

Absolutely fascinating. All our needs were met. It totally exceeded my expectations.
Everything was wonderful. The rooms, the food, the staff. Our tracker and ranger were the best. Go Ruth’s Ruthless Renegades.
I will always remember this amazing trip. We saw every animal possible. I learned so much about the environment and the animals. Absolutely amazing
My heart is in Africa

Unforgettable moment in TZ
I trekked Mt.Kilimanjaro last month. And it was the most exciting moment of my life. The white mountain is so massive and so beautiful at the same time. It wasn't easy as it was my first time but i would like to thank our guide Mwinyi because he was of a big help at every moment. Thanks to Incredible Africa Adventure for taking me there your services are extraordinary

Highly professional operation and good value-for-money
I would highly recommend booking with Travel Africa Safari Agency. Mohamed provided excellent and very professional service. He was very responsive both during the booking process as well as while I was in Arusha. The driver Andrew was also punctual, friendly, and a great driver.
Furthermore, the tour is very good value-for-money, as Mohamed includes a free, round-trip airport transfer from Kilimanjaro Airport to Arusha town (normally $100 round trip if you went with a taxi) as well as accommodation before and after the tour. This was a standout offering compared to the other tour operators that we had contacted, and was the main reason we chose to go with Travel Africa Safari Agency.
The only downside is that the free accommodation provided at Arusha Tourist Inn was a bit disappointing, with cold water, unfriendly service, and everything a bit poorly maintained. This is not directly within the control of Travel Africa Safari Agency as they do not operate the lodge, but does somewhat limit the value of the free accommodation that is offered before and after the tour.
Overall would nevertheless still highly recommend Travel Africa Safari Agency both for the excellent and professional service as well as the superb value for money.

Unforgettable trip
A memorable trip to the mountain. Nicklas offered us the best guide team, a group of more than a dozen people, so that we can carry no load, without any food / live / security concerns, and safely follow the guide to climb. In the case that the logistics service is so intimate, our mountaineering has not been very smooth, physical strength, altitude resistance, etc., it is not simply simple to overcome, in short, very memorable; safari's itinerary is also very lucky, we are slow to catch up After staying in Ngorongoro for a long time, I saw the miraculous close-up of the lion eating, perfect. Our guide was very hard from 3am, driving with us, has been working hard until 5pm, thank you very much!

Best trip ever!
I can honestly say that this was the trip of a life time. I have travelled all over the world and done and seen some amazing things, but this was so different. The luxury tented lodges were outstanding with attention to detail that is rarely seen. For instance we had our beds warmed up with hot water bottles which was a really nice and thoughtful touch. Our Lion King adventures safari guide, Good Luck, was helpful, polite, unbelievably knowledgeable, flexible, funny, and just very easy to get along with. He adjusted our schedule to suit our needs keeping in ind that we wanted to see as many animals as possible, while stil, taking some time to relax! He was simply the Best! The food during our trip was also extraordinary. Everything was just perfect! We loved every minute!!
