Excellent at his job.
My brother, cousin, and I have had an African safari on our bucket list for a long time. The time finally came! From reading the reviews and seeing about the expeditions on the tv, I have known for a long time that I wanted to do a safari in Tanzania. When the time came I reached out to Noel whom I was recommended by a friend. Noel took care of all my questions and everything was completed seamlessly.
Our excellent guide was Ashley. We can't say enough positive things about him! Professional, extremely knowledgeable, entertaining, flexible with the schedule, and the absolute best driver there is! We had categorically the best time and saw more animals than we could have dreamt of seeing. Furthermore, all the accommodations were outstanding. In addition to seeing all the wonderful animals, some other highlights would be visiting the orphanage (Arusha), stopping at a Maasai Village and watching the animals from a hot air balloon (Serengeti National Park).
After the safari portion, we ventured to Zanzibar for relaxation. Had a wonderful tour of Stone Town and Prisoner Island. The turtle sanctuary was a nice surprise.
Booking our vacation through Noel and his company Red Soil Safaris was the best thing we did. Additionally, kudos to Ashley (Masai)- he was the best.

100% recommend!!
Me and my partner choose Tazama Africa Holidays out of 6 other companies. It took us ~2 weeks to do our research but it totally worth it. We compared them to a lot other businesses and Tazama were highly the best in my personal opinion.
Antony (the managing director & head guide) were super helpful and patient through the process of organize our dream holiday in Kenya. We always could reach him very quick and easy and he was always ready to help us.
Our personal guide was Ephantus who I want to thank everything again. He is a very friendly, happy person, who made our trip amazing. He made sure we get a 100% personalized holiday and everything fits for our needs. We had a lot’s of interesting and funny coversations about almost everything. We spent every day in a very good mood and learnt a lot from Ephantus about the wildlife and culture which he had a real good knowledge about.
My partner is a wildlife photographer so I have to admit we had expectations regarding the trip which were absolutely statisfied.
We got way than more we expected. I highly recommand Tazama Africa Holidays, it’s a very trustable company. For sure we would book with them again.
We did the 7 days classic Kenya safari.

Perfect safari, great agency !
We have been to Aberdares waterfalls with Samuel and Joseph. The place was astonishing and Samuel was a super guide, he knew the place by heart.
We also have been to Amboseli National Park with the same agency. Joseph was so nice with us, he knew exactly where to go to find all the animals. Besides, he took care of us until the end ie the crossing border to Tanzania. I strongly recommand this agency for all the safaris in Kenya.

4 Days Explore Tanzania Safari: Serengeti National Park + Ngorongoro Crater + Lake Manyara National Park
Just returned from an unforgettable trip to Tanzania, we still have in our memory the wonderful 4-day private safari experience made in the second week of August.
I highly recommend to anyone who travels to this beautiful country not to miss the parks in the north and to choose Gosheni Safaris.
Before choosing the tour operator, I did a lot of research online and read the reviews of many tourists who were enthusiastic about the experience. I was not surprised, therefore, by the professionalism of this tour operator, which has shown great attention to the customer since the first contact.
After an exchange of emails, Peter offered me a package giving me details on the services, all of a high level: the new jeep, efficient and exclusively for us (group of 4 people), with the use of binoculars, water board and sockets to charge smartphones, overnight stays in extraordinary structures, hot meals, wine and drinks for lunch during the "game drives". An exclusive service!
We were lucky enough to see many animals, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, jackals, buffaloes, wildebeest, various species of antelope, hippos, baboons and other types of multicolored monkeys, elephants, giraffes, zebras, ostriches, warthogs, lemurs, wild cats, crocodiles, many species of birds, rodents, not to mention trees and plants and breathtaking views.
In particular, we spent two unforgettable nights at the Acacia Seronera Luxury Camp, right in the middle of the Serengeti, in contact with nature (splendid view especially at sunrise and sunset accompanied by the sounds of the savannah), but equipped with all comforts, from the hot water in the bathrooms, all with shower and tub, to the huge and very comfortable beds and abundant breakfast; not to mention the helpfulness of the staff. We were truly pampered from the welcome until the end of the stay.
The night spent at Ngorongoro Castle was also special. The structure is new, located within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and surrounded by greenery. Particular architecture and furnishings, still a little behind in terms of customer services, but with enormous growth potential. Staff always smiling and helpful.
The only flaw, the wi-fi is not present in the rooms, but still available in the common areas.
A particular review for our guide. If you have the chance, ask for Erasto. He was great; he speaks several languages (with us especially in Spanish), very well prepared, he drove the jeep flawlessly (including the thrill of the "African massage") and was always available to accommodate our requests. He also gave us a lot of interesting information about the animals and the local culture. With him we felt privileged.
With Gosheni Safaris, really the top!!!

Lomo for the best safari in Tanzania
I want to thank Erasto from Lomo Tanzania Safari for a fascinating safari trip. We found the company online and from the first moment we contacted them we received an immediate response and consideration of all our needs as a family with children. Everything was organized and tidy, there was flexibility and thinking about every detail. We were involved in the planning of the trip and during it we are partners and not just spectators. Erasto the company manager is a professional with a lot of sensitivity to customers and knowledge in training together with Richard the guide who has extensive knowledge about the animals, birds and plants in Tanzania. We did a 4-day trip together in the Sarangeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangiri reserves and stayed in amazing accommodations. We are a mostly vegan family and there was consideration and effort in this matter as well. We saw wonderful animals and amazing birds, we experienced Tanzania in a deep and interesting way through the guides' stories, we connected, sang, danced and laughed a lot. Thank you so much, we will never forget this amazing experience

Adventurous Safari!
We did the Safari tour with Kili slops! first day we went to Tarangire National park, lots of animals especially zebras, impalas, giraffes, wildebeest, elephants, monkeys, birds of all kinds .. we slept at the camp just outside the Serengeti and we met our expert guide Stuart, and our super chef Ali, them plus our 3 travel companions (a French, a Turkish and a Russian - they are special !!) we set off to explore the Serengeti (which means endless plane). Stuart managed to show us the wildebeest migration to the Mara river !! sensational!!!!! and then Lions, cheetahs, ostriches, hyenas ... the nice thing is that we were almost always alone, a few times we found ourselves with many jeeps to see the same animals, so the feeling was of a sustainable safari under the expert guidance of Stuart! ! Then we went to Nogorongoro - which was like entering in the book, “journey to the center of the earth! “ As a last stop we went to Lake Natron (perhaps the most painful trip because of the road, but it is absolutely worth the trip !!) Thanks guys!! it was truly an unforgettable experience!!!!

Speke Uganda: reliable, excellent choice for the best safari experience, top guides too!
We booked our trip with Speke Uganda for 2020 and finally made it in 2022! All the park permits booked for 2020 were honored in 2022. Our itinerary ran smoothly, and our excellent guide Africano briefed us each night on the plan for the next day. Africano worked very hard to ensure that we saw the animals we planned for. Special thanks for a close up encounter with a leopard! The accommodation was good, the food excellent and everyone we met very welcoming. Getting close to Gorillas in Uganda and Rwanda was a special couple of days, but each day brought a different experience. When we had spare time a local guide was found to take us on some really interesting long walks, the Nile Congo way was especially memorable. Overall the trip was excellent, really good value for money and a very special experience, thoroughly recommended.

The whole African Chitah team is extremely efficient and reliable.
Since the beginning Midian has been very professional. He was able to organize a trip within our budget and with a very good choice of accommodation.
We really enjoyed our 4 days with Didas who guided us in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. He was extremely knowledgeable. Without his experience and sharp eyes, we would have missed many species.
I definitely highly recommend African Chitah for the quality and the value for money of their service. Also we have really appreciated this little extra that the whole team was always ready to do in order to make sure our experience would be memorable.

Trip of a Lifetime
We had a 16 night safari in Kenya organised by African Sunset Safaris. Haron was excellent in suggesting possible itineraries and extremely patient every time I had to make changes. Our final itinerary gave us an amazing overview of this amazing country. We saw so much wildlife and had some wonderful experiences along the way. Haron and Charles were full of interesting facts and stories and my two teenagers especially enjoyed this. They both really ensured our holiday was a wonderful experience. All our accommodation which was selected by Haron was excellent and so comfortable. So great spots to see wildlife around watering holes. I would definitely recommend African Sunset Safaris and hopefully if we get to return I will not hesitate to use them.
