Amazing
Wow! Diana Tanzania safaris and our tour guide, Herman, were excellent! My wife and I took a nine day custom tour of Ngorongoro Crater, the northern Serengeti of the great migration, and Tarangire. Everything was spectacular. The accommodations were great, the food was wonderful, and the people we met were wonderful. Herman was an excellent guide. He knew everything about where to go on the Safari with perfect timing. After 10 days of traveling with him, he was like family!!! What a wonderful tour company, and a wonderful tour guide! Spectacular in every way! Many thanks to the young lady Diana and thank you, Herman!
I will highly recommend Diana Tanzania safaris for any one who want to travel!!!

My opinion is you better use another travel agency.
It was our first time in dubi and When we arrived we were dropped off at the hotel and left to check in the hotel by ourselves. We had a tour for the day we checked in even though we were extremely tired and ended up missing the tour since noone came to the reception to call us down. They just whatsapp you ( yet the hotels wifi was very slow so we received these messages very late) They only wait for you 20 min and leave you .
The second and third tour guides were really good. Congrats to them. The company only gave us activities for the first two days and left the other 4 unattended. During drop off to the airport on our departure we were left to navigate on our own until we reach our take off gate. Generally won't go with them again. I rather book for myself amd go alone. No difference.

Was unexpected breathtaking
Without a doubt the most incredible experience we have ever had. We saw the Big 5 and more. Literally all our dreams came true during this unforgettable trip. Everything was arranged so well, the places we stayed exceeded all our expectations and we have never met such friendly people. A huge thank you to Diana for making our week such a succes. She made sure all was taken care of, everyone was happy and that we spot all the animals we wanted to see. We were even lucky enough to see a caracal, 5 rhinos, a sleeping lion in the tree, leopards and 10 cheetahs all thanks to Patrick's good eyes. The roads where pretty harsh but Patrick's incredible driving skills made us feel more than safe.Patrick was not just our tour guide but treated us like family. We would recommend Diana Tanzania Safaris to anyone and if we ever come back we would choose them again. If you are going to Tanzania, it is worth every penny. Hakuna matata

Young tour operator, with lot's of personal attention, and great flexibility to meet your needs
We approached Mike from Great Minds Safari with a fairly last-minute request to organise a private safari for us. With just three weeks notice, Mike prepared a unforgettable trip that was tailored to our wishes and budget. He went above and beyond to help us with some additional requests (i.e. alternative transfer locations, dietary wishes, supporting with local USD withdrawals, and he made some great pictures of us too

Tafari Safaris delivers a seamless, impeccable, exceptional and unforgettable travel experience.
Traveling to Murchison Falls with Tafari Safaris was an extraordinary adventure that transcended my wildest dreams. The journey was not just a physical voyage; it was a soul-stirring odyssey through the heart of Uganda that left an indelible mark on my spirit.
From the moment I set foot on the beautiful beast of a land cruiser, the warm reception and the affection offered by the crew enveloped me. Tafari Safaris, with their impeccable planning and unwavering commitment to responsible tourism, were the architects of this remarkable journey. Part of the amusements that I was yet to witness was a Ugandan with a passion for a litter free country as the "Captain of the wheel" offered garbage bags for all aboard the vehicle to keep trash inside rather than litter the entire way to the falls.
Our voyage began with a drive through the bustling streets of Kampala city as we paved our way through a couple of short cuts to try and avoid the famous traffic jam, where the vibrant colors of local markets and the harmonious rhythm of daily life were a mesmerizing introduction to the land of freedom that is Uganda. The music played out loud in the car as we shared in the spirit of snacking passing around different drinks and bites to make a comfortable journey for all on board. It was here that our momentary guide, Brian , greeted us with a smile that seemed to radiate the very essence of this trip. The Tafari van is fully equipped with a first aid box, emergency off the counter medicine, snacks and water for rehydration, an electric cooler, music on the move, inclining chairs for rest time, an open roof for real time experience. What more could I ask for?!
As we embarked on our journey to Murchison Falls National Park, the landscape gradually transformed, revealing the true heart of nature. The sprawling savannahs, where herds of elephants and giraffes roamed freely, felt like scenes from a wildlife documentary brought to life. Brian's encyclopedic knowledge of the region's fauna and flora transformed our game drives into unforgettable encounters with nature. Often times stopping to take a picture or more.
One morning, as we watched a family of lions laze under the African sun, Brian shared tales of the park's history and conservation efforts to the early risers that made the sightseeing. His passion for wildlife preservation was evident, and it left a lasting impression on us all, deepening our connection to this fragile ecosystem.
The pinnacle of our journey, however, was the awe-inspiring Murchison Falls themselves. We embarked on a boat safari along the Nile River, slowly approaching the thundering cascade. The sight and sound of the water crashing through the narrow gorge, framed by lush greenery, was nothing short of majestic. It was a moment that reminded us of the Earth's raw power and beauty. I could have stayed there for the rest of my life but reality called hahhahaa.
One afternoon, we trekked to the top of the falls, where the Nile squeezed through a 7-meter wide crevice and plunged 43 meters below. Standing there, overlooking the churning waters, I was overcome with a profound sense of reverence for the forces that have shaped this landscape over millennia.
Tafari Safaris ensured that our experience was not just about sightseeing but also about connecting with the local communities. We visited a nearby village, where we were welcomed with open arms. We shared stories, danced to traditional songs, and gained a deeper understanding of the challenges and triumphs of rural life in Uganda. It was a humbling experience that left me with a newfound appreciation for the resilience of the human spirit.
The accommodations selected by Tafari Safaris were nothing short of enchanting. Whether it was the quiet breeze surrounding the lodge, where I fell asleep to the rustic safari camp surrounded by the sounds of the wild, or the squeaky noises in the nearby bushes of animals on about their daily lives, each place offered a unique and immersive experience. The attentive staff and sumptuous local cuisine added a touch of luxury to our adventure.
Perhaps what set Tafari Safaris apart was their commitment to responsible and sustainable tourism. Every aspect of our journey was conducted with the utmost respect for the environment and the local communities. Brian and the team tirelessly emphasized the importance of conservation, making us active participants in the protection of this precious ecosystem. It is also on this trip that I learned that elephant poop is used to make some type of coffee, I am uncertain that I am willing to try that out.
One evening, we gathered around a bonfire under the open sky, our faces illuminated by the flickering flames. Brian spoke passionately about the need to safeguard these lands for future generations. It was a poignant reminder of our role as stewards of the Earth, and it left me with a sense of purpose that transcended my individual travels.
As our journey with Tafari Safaris came to an end, I couldn't help but reflect on the profound impact it had on me. This wasn't just a trip; it was a transformative experience that awakened my senses, broadened my horizons, and instilled in me a deep reverence for the natural world. I forgot to mention that we had a tire burst along our journey and to say the least, Brian had all the gear and had it fixed like it was a piece of cake.
In a world where travel can sometimes feel superficial, Tafari Safaris rekindled my belief in the power of responsible and meaningful exploration. They seamlessly blended adventure with education, luxury with authenticity, and left an indelible mark on my soul.
My journey to Murchison Falls, Uganda with Tafari Safaris was a symphony of sights, sounds, and emotions that resonates with me to this day. It was a reminder that, in the embrace of nature and the warmth of local communities, we find not only the beauty of the world but also the beauty within ourselves. For that, I am eternally grateful to Tafari Safaris for orchestrating an experience that will forever hold a cherished place in my heart.
My 2024 resolution is to set foot in every national park that I can reach because I also realized that Uganda is a beautiful country that is often over looked by the country men and women. We yearn to visit the white man's land but the true beauty is right here. All you need is the right tour guide to show you what your eyes can see but your soul hasn't inhaled; Tafari Safaris will take you to the unknown and you will make a bond with the unknown like a missing piece of a puzzle that you have been looking for all your life.
IF I HAD TO DO IT ALL AGAIN, I WOULD CHOOSE TAFARI SAFARIS IN A HEART BEAT.

The best travel experience ever! I Sh!t you not!
For a family that has been to Africa on a few occasions, Epic, unbelievable, flexible, awesome, and adventurous are all words that fall well short of the experiences both us and our daughter had with James and Jemu Mwenda Expeditions.
Our itinerary was put together over about a six month period because we had planned on such a long holiday (56 days). Our itinerary changed on the ground as we took part in some incredible experiences, James and the team made these changes seem less and without trouble. The question is not who should we travel with in Africa, but when can we travel next! Can not recommend Jemu enough.

Unforgettable Trip With Serengeti African Tours
We had an incredible trip with Serengeti African Tours for our honeymoon. Our guide Abu was very knowledgeable and he was amazing at spotting the animals and finding the best position to watch them! We saw so many animals, including lion cubs which was a highlight. The accommodations were also fantastic. Would highly recommend!

Experienced and knowledgable guide
Our Guide Stanley, was such a pleasure, very friendly and knowledgable. We went on a half day tour to the Kruger park and thanks to Stanleys experience and expertise we were still able to see the big 5. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants a guided tour through the park.
