MangiEmpire Safari’s provided us a wonderful experience from arrival to departure
They made our first time safari experience absolutely easy and great. We had great communication before the trip regarding all aspects from itineraries and wish list to preferred accommodations and day plans. We had our itinerary exactly as we had asked for and they are great at organizing everything for you.
Our driver was absolutely fantastic and massively enhanced our experience - he was a great driver with great knowledge and also so friendly and entertaining, which is very welcome during the long stints of driving! He was a lovely chap who made sure we had everything we needed for the duration of the safari and did his best to make sure we saw all of the animals on our wishlist - he was very experienced and I think this is so important when out on Safari.
Overall we would 100% use this company again - they are brilliant! Highly recommend for first time safari goers, as they really help organise it all and ensure that you have a great time!!! 5 stars goes to MANGIEMPIRE Tours & Safaris

Great Safari and Good Price
I joined a 4-day camping group safari and had a great experience! Communication with Nelson beforehand (via WhatsApp) was easy and he was very helpful. The atmosphere in the group was relaxed and we enjoyed viewing a large range of animals in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro national parks. Our tour guide and driver Herman was reliable and very knowledgeable.

Professional with a great human , wonderfull experience that surpassed all my expectations.
Ronnie took us with a superb proffessinal guide specialising in bird life to Samburu, Mount Kenya, Baringo and Naivasha. We only had 8 days so he had to fit in alot. It was the trip of a life time.... we felt we were in very capable hands and the driving was safe that made the long drives relaxing and the areas we visited lived up to and surpassd our expectations. Ronnie knew all the places to visit to get the maximum number of bird species we wanted to see and we left with over 360 species an many endemic ones amongst them.
It was an amazing experience handle proffessionally and with good humour ..high-lights could have been the Vereaux's Eagle Owl or the Golden Breasted Starling.
Thanks Ronnie !!

No regrets with Safari360!
We chose to go to Tanzania for the famous Classic Northern Tanzania Safari to see the wildebeest calving season but have experienced much more than we expected. We contacted a number of operators offering Tanzania however Petro won us over with responses. He understood well what we were looking for and his suggestions enhanced itinerary.
The trip went as described in the itinerary but we could not have anticipated how exciting the actual experience would be with an expert guide –Moses sharing his informed insight for everything that we saw. He seemed to know all the other drivers that we met in the parks and this led to us to many animals from their tips. He also had his fair share of excellent spotting wildlife like a leopard that was perfectly camouflaged in a nearby tree. We also spent time with the Hadzbe Bushmen going back in time.
If you are looking for a great Tanzania safari and cultural experience, Safari360 is a perfect choice.

Splendid 9 Days Family Vacation
My family started our Tanzania trip with Vervet Tours from our hotel in Arusha with Melkior as our guide. We had an extremely wonderful time: 1 day in Lake Manyara where we did the board walkway in the morning and nice game drive in the afternoon, 5 days exploring different parts of Serengeti National Park, game drives, hippos pool and balloon safari, 2 days in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, we did the famous Ngorongoro crater visit, Maasai boma visit and local elementary school.
We saw lots of animals including all the big 5, birds, and breathtaking scenery. Of special mention are the beautiful and friendly people we met in Tanzania who made our trip worthwhile.
We would love to do another visit soon.
Excellent communication skills
Very responsive staff, great travel arrangements, professional drivers and guides.
truly enjoyed.

Perfect Travel Companion ensuring security, comfort and enriching experience.
We had life changing experience in Tanzania. Meeting dedicated and hardworking citizens, knowing about the country's rich history, culture and ofcourse wildlife Safari ! For both me and my husband the countless number of Animal Planet and Discovery Channel episodes of Wildlife took life and suddenly broadened our horizon! Safari was an entirely new experience for us and we are sure we would like to engage in more such experiences in future. A large part of this credit goes to Earthlife Expedition!!!
Special credit goes to our Travel Partner Paul from Earthlife Expedition who was the perfect host for us. It was the time around Christmas that we took this trip. Paul, had no regrets about being away from family. He made us his family and took care of every detail of our trip. Earthlife Expedition had detailed out our trip in quite an elaborate manner covering Tarangeri, Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Parks. Our Safari was ofcourse a success given we sighted the big 5 :D
The stay was planned in high quality camps and lodges. Food was good in each of them. The staff at these lodges was welcoming and assuring of a safe stay even when we were in the middle of the jungle.
We would highly recommend earthlife expedition to people who are planning to take Safari in Tanzania and nearby contries.
We thank them for helping us create so many lifetime memories. We wish them all the best for a very bright future!

Compass Odyssey deserves its 5/5 rating.
From the first inquiry to the end of our trip, Darren was outstanding in providing a service with the aim of ensuring we had a holiday that met all our needs and expectations, leaving nothing to chance. We were never left wondering or waiting for a response.
Darren took the time to listen and understand our brief. Senalala Lodge delivered a beautiful understated, high quality standard of accommodation, meals and safari drives that left us with wonderful memories of a beautiful country full of extraordinary wildlife and a unique landscape. The extra touches such as the managers, James and Corlia and their outstanding guides joining us for meals made the whole experience very rewarding. We learnt that their lives are much broader than the Big 5.
If you ever thought a Safari was about driving around on a set route looking at the same animals then you will be in for a real treat at Senalala Lodge. Whilst on an early morning walk, we glanced side-wards to discover the surprise of a life time – a large white Rhino. With our guide's great skill we were able to spend time observing this magnificent beauty. Our guides, Ivan and Connor, had the greatest respect for the wildlife yet ensured our safety at all times.
We have no hesitation in recommending Compass Odyssey to travellers who like adventure combined with simple luxury and every detail ticked off. To know that there is a local person on the ground with every resource at his finger-tips was very reassuring.

Just perfect
Gladys, the sales representative planned a formidable itinerary for our family, according to our requests. She took good care of every little detail, small ones as well as the big ones. She came to brief us at the hotels, in order to make sure everything is clear and to go through safety regulations.
Our safari guide, William picked us up from Kilimanjaro airport and his welcoming smile, as well as the nice picnic he organized next to our Jeep was a sign for what’s expected for us ahead.
William turned out to be very professional , patient with a profound understanding of the animals and always happy to handle any request.
The Vehicle was brand new and had been washed every night and the food was above our expectations. We especially liked the picnic with the hot lunch.
