I can't praise Peter enough our guide/driver such a kind knowledgeable person with a heart of gold
The time of my life in Tanzania! We were 3 brothers on our first Safari,so glad we choose Ozon light.
Everything went smoothly from being picked up at airport and everything in between.
Accommodation was just perfect on this 6 day safari.
You won't be disappointed if you choose Ozon light for your Safari experience.

Good service and tight follow-up
We loved using the Viatu Trip Builder to design our holidays in South Africa. It was super easy and transparent. Our holidays were great and the few times we needed support our consultant Benoit was very quick and helpful. Upon our return from South Africa we received a carbon offset certificate which was very cool. Without any additional costs, they have offset our whole trip with a local project that supports the creation of boreholes in the region.

Best recommendation so far
My pals visited kenya last year using unscripted safaris and they recommended them to us and we do not regret it a single bit. We enjoyed a 12 days safari and i think we exhausted all parks so well that we'd do it again. Thanks to Jeremy specifically and the whole team, we will not forget you.

Jim was prompt, kind, and helpful.
We really enjoyed this camping safari. Hot showers and comfortable beds were a plus and we felt connected to nature with a couple monkeys coming by for a visit. Electricity for charging phones is limited to the evening hours, but it was sufficient and we enjoyed meeting travelers by the campfire. The Maasai village visit was educational and would recommend. Rustic but the food was great and staff are kind and helpful.

Great time @Nyerere NP with Mr. Martin & Mr. Duller
We had a great time with our guide Mr. Martin and our driver Mr. Duller! 5/5! Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience!
We booked a 4-day fly-in safari from Sansibar, even though the itinerary and the lodge were changed from the original booking - it was so great!!!! Transport/pick-up, luggage storage on Zanzibar was very good & the communication with the operator was very easy. Value for money was okay with 260$ per day - we would have wished some control over our itinerary (how many days of safari e.g.) if we pay the same price for every day. The car was very good - cool water all day long in the truck and overall great food!
Regarding the Safari itself:
Day 1: warm welcome at the airport and a full day in the bush. Lots of elephants, lions, giraffes etc. - no excessive chasing of animals by the driver, which we liked very much! Very good food under a great bao-bab tree. Completely vegan food was possible, as ordered.
Day 2: bushman tour, village tour with a local, visit to a local school. This tour and introduction to the local life was astonishing. We felt warmly welcome and bought local goods and did learn a lot about Tansania, the challenges of the people and their lives. Before the tour we had a bushman walking tour early in the morning - which seemed to be a bit staged, we did not like that very much… we ended the day with end epic sunset on the river banks of rufiji river and the boat safari, where we would have liked to get closer to the hippos (like other boats).
Day 3: full day again in the jeep! And again lots of animals and wild game - especially lots of elephants with their babies. The only con on this day: we ordered 2 times vegan food & 1 meat portion, in the end we got 2 meat portions and 1 vegetarian. Not a huge problem, as we tried to share then - but worked very well! Maybe a table for the lunch would have been nice as well!
Day 4: Maasai village visit, chill-out at the lodge and transport to the airport and back to ZNZ. We promptly received our stored luggage & were transported to our hotel.
Lodge (Safari Selous Lodge):
5/5! Great time, great property and the loveliest people around. Always clean, very tasty food & the worlds greatest staff. You cannot feel alone there, there’s always someone who talks to you, asks you about your day or to play games with. We even had dancing lessons with our Maasai guard by the bonfire. Everyone was interested in us, our home countries and so on. Thanks so much Sarah, Jafar & Jastin!
Conclusion: we can recommend all our lodge, agency and guides! Thanks for the good time at Nyerere NP!

The trip of a lifetime!
Our guide (Mansoor) was great! He knew a lot about all the animals and the surroundings. He aranged all the accommodations and excursions. He knew to find the animals in the parks. We went to Mikumi, Ruaha and Nyerere. The accommodations were standard which was fine. We combined all the parks and we had to spend a lot of time in the car but there was always something to see. And Mansoor is een excellent driver

Best safari experience
Visited Tanzania with 5 friends and it was the first time to the country for all of us.
Ozon Light booked all the hotels and a well organised trip for all of us and all of us had a wonderful experience. Our driver, Peter, is especially recommended as he is kind, helpful and very professional.

Epic trip of a lifetime!
We went with Great Escape Trails based on a friend's recommendation and what a wonderful decision that turned out to be!
Thom was very proactive and accommodative with all the pre-travel arrangements from the start, and gave us a fantastic guide Cornel. We were a group of 2 couples flying in from different countries, he made sure to engage all of us and understand our different objectives. First and foremost, his ability and instinct to spot animals is unbelievable. He was able to see animals from a massive distance, much faster and clearer than us even with binoculars! We managed to catch the wildebeasts crossing the Mara River three times, twice of which we were first to the scene before all the other safari vehicles arrived thanks to Cornel's fantastic intuition. As a result, we had really awesome front row seats to what is aptly coined 'the greatest show on earth'. Secondly, he drives really well and made us as comfortable as possible on the bumpy and dusty roads in the bushes. Lastly, his easy going personality and excellent command of English made him a joy to be around for 7 days and he is always sensitive to our needs.
Truly, we cannot thank Cornel enough for making all our dreams come true! Do not be put off by their lower number of reviews, while they are a smaller company they really go the extra mile to earn your trust. Great Escape Trails was a gem find for us and we would strongly endorse them without any hesitation at all. For future visitors, we wish you a fabulous trip. Enjoy!!
