very competent
James is very nice and answers all questions about the trip quickly. On-time pickup from the airport. During the Safari, a sufficient supply of drinks (water, cola, beer), a tasty meal. Our two-day safari was very charming. An unforgettable experience . Worth recommending. Price-performance ratio is right. Overnight stay in Jungle Pearl is great! Thank you very much African Polecat.

Very easy to deal with - a pleasant experience all round.
The trip was fantastic! We loved every minute of the trip. The guides, food & lodges were all excellent. Each lodge had something different to offer & a new experience. Thank you for doing our bookings & for meeting us at the airport. It was a holiday to remember & hopefully repeat soon trying different lodges for different experiences.

Amazing experience and great guide
Really loved the safari. Our guide ( Ayoub) was super good, he spotted animals that I struggled to see with my super zoom camera ^^
The car is very confortable. Cleaned every day.
Our experience was magical. We saw lions cheetah leopard zebra giraffes buffalo elephants wildebeest antilope impala, monkeys,,…
Only missing the rhino from the big 5. We saw one in Ngorongoro but from very far. Couldn’t get a descent picture.
We stayed at the Serena hotel and it was the best choice we made. It cost more but it is worth it. Really make the full experience magical.no regret.
I compared many options and Serengeti smile was the best for price and options. You can’t beat them on the Serena Hotel price for sure.

Nice country for a safari
Kenya is a nice place to visit for a safari. We were lucky to see all of the big 5. The scenery is really breathtaking. However, some places were already quite crowded.
I can also recommend to book with super eagles travel & tours Ltd. They did a great job.

Amazing country with beautiful wildlife and lovely people
We had an amazing experience in Safari at Kruger with the agency Viva Safaris.
Very well organized, experienced guides and drivers. We didn’t need to worry with anything. Just relaxing and having fun watching the beautiful wildlife. Fantastic memories for life!
Congratulations to the Viva Safaris team!

If you can visit just one country in Africa - it must be Tanzania!
We have just completed 2 months travelling Southern Africa. We enjoyed it all and all 10 countries we visited. But on reflection, if we had to choose just one, it would have to be Tanzania. Ngorongoro Crater would probably be the pick of the parks, but the Serengeti and Tarangirie are close behind. The animals were amazing. We saw the big 5 twice over, and whilst finding animals in the wild can be hit and miss, your chances are greatly increased in Tanzania. Add that the quality of food and accomodation was top notch - what’s not to like?!

Overwhelming, mindblowing, unforgettable!
Tanzania, its people, its diversity, nature and national parks exceeded all expectations! Within 7 days we visited 4 national parks, drove about 1400km through 10 different vegetation zones and saw over 35 animal species. Each national park had its own charme and stunning scenery with humid djungle areas in the Manyara National park, dry savannah in the serengeti and a crazy crater with huge waterholes in the Ngorongoro National park.
Overall we fell most in love with the serengeti. We stayed 2 nights in a tented camp in the heart of the serengeti surrounded by nature without fences or other boundaries. We were just part of it all. At night we could even hear the buffalos eating next to our tent, hyenas strolling around us and lions roaring in the far. On our game drives we witnessed some special events like mating lions, a leopard eating its pray and a lioness with her cubs being approached by a group of elephants.
We saw the 3 big cats (lion, leopard and cheetah) and the big five, although the rhino just through binoculars. We were really lucky to have a guide we had a great vibe with. He also spotted EVERY animal around and knows every corner of the national parks. Having a good guide is crucial as you are dependent on his knowledge and decisions to be at the right spot at the right time.
The weather was warm and dry all the time. We felt safe at any time. Of course there were always other cars around when something exciting was on the menu (like predator eating prey or male lions being around), but it never felt like mass tourism. We always felt the bush and safari vibes. Overall it was a trip of a lifetime. If you are interested in some images of this trip check out my instagram @el.mago_merlin

Beach holiday on Zanzibar and safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro - fantastic scenery and kind people
Within out trip to Zanzibar and Dar-es-Salaam, we had a four-day safari trip with the SafariSoles company. After being picked up at our Zanzibar beach hotel and brought to the airport, we went by airplane into Serengeti where we were met by out guide Simon. He was a safe driver and a terrific guide with eyes for the wildlife, so we enjoyed four days of safari with lots of nice views, photos and videos of the wildlife in Serengeti and in the Ngorongoro crater. We really saw "all" the scenery on the savannah, elephants, african buffalo, lions, leopards and a single rhino, but also immense groups of migrating wildebeast, giraffes, antilopes, gazelles, hyenas and hippos. Our guide had gotten the nick name Safari Monster, which we thought was a good fit regarding his abilities. The people both in Zanzibar and Dar were smiling and friendly and we really had a lovely vacation in a delightful climate, given that we come from Norway, which is cold at this time of year.
All the best to the Tanzanians who really have succeeded in the conservation of habitats for their wildlife and on the same time show great hospitality for foreign visitors. Thank you, Tanzania!

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Merlin
Flora we would not have expected in Tanzania. Many many trees and humid air alongside a huge lake. At some point it looked mysterious, like a deadland with mud and dead trees due to the natron/soda that the lake contains. It had a great djungle/bush vibes with giraffes and elephants surprising in the dense forest. We were not lucky to see any cats.
