Diani Beach
Spent the last week of August 2015 with family, a very professionally organized tour by Top African Safaris. Joseph Ikavi was at hand to see us on arrival and ensure everything is in order.
This was my second vacation organized by Top African Safaris, and I would highly recommend them.

2 day Mikumi Safari
A great 2 day short trip to Mikumi with Kanuth Adventure Safaris. Excellent value for money and well looked after by Deodat. Kanuth even came to meet us at the start of our trip and gave us a t-shirt and then spoke to us at the end to ensure everything had gone well. We fully recommend booking with Kanuth

Undisputed excellence in service delivery
My wife and I had a great 12-day private safari with Adventure Backpackers Tanzania(Kenya) on August 2015.
We flew into Nairobi and went to Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli Notional Park and Lake Bogoria and then back Nairobi.
The parks are amazing and you will not be disappointed at all. During our safari, we actually saw more than we expected, from the big migration known as the biggest spectacle on the planet and finally we had a wonderful birding experience at lake Bogoria.
We ultimately chose Adventure backpackers Tanzania (Kenya) because Celestine, the manager and the rest of her team were very responsive and prompt as per service delivery and displayed exceptional patience to meet our expectations and she was always there to make sure that our itinerary is not disported in any negative way whatsoever.
Our guide and driver Sam was friendly and professional. They answered all our questions and even during the safari they told us alot about the animals, local people and the country as a whole. they also knew alot about the animals and seemed skilled at navigating the parks to enable us to get the perfect viewing angle.
I would recommend whoever visiting Kenya to contact Celestine, the manager together with her team for a classic service delivery, efficiency and pocket - friendly rates.
We were very happy and confident with Adventure backpackers Tanzania(Kenya)s' responsiveness from the planning phase to the end and its willingness to design a private safari based around our interests.
everything else from accommodation, the food and communication skills was just perfect due to their flexibility to satisfy us.

Tarangire NP
My daughter and I didn't want to do a long safari. We wanted to do two or three days in Northern Tanzania. A friend recommended Dahlia Tours. We communicated with Aron and Brian by email before arriving in Tanzania. Aron provided us with a lot of information on short safaris. A lifetime dream of mine was to see Baobob trees. We decided on Tarangire. We had a marvelous time. Our guide Bryce was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Our second day was spent at Mt. Kilimanjaro's NP. We spent the day with our guide Paschal wading at the bottom of waterfalls, participating in roasting and grinding coffee beans which we brewed and enjoyed. We are looking forward to our next trip to Tanzania. The guys at Dahlia Tours took very good care of us like we were family.

Visits to Huangi National Park, Chobe and Vic Falls
We have visited many places throughout the world - Africa Zim Travels are everything you would want. Comments are consistently outstanding because quite simply they go out of their way to make things work. Blessing is a star. The whole experience was special from the moment we met Blessing at the Airport. From Meals, Safari Game Drives, to River Cruises. This endorsement comes with total confidence that you will not need to search for any other tour operator. Africa Zim Tours and Blessing thank you for making our visit to your country so special.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Stefan van Schaik
If you want to see some big predator cats or other big game, you realy have to go to the Serengeti. It has a higly amount of lions and there are alot of cheeta's. For seeing a leopard you need a little bit of luck and a good guide.
It also has an increasing amount of elephants and giraffes.
But other than some big and amazing animals it also has a real divers sceanery. Sometimes its realy amazing to see how the landscape is changing. From real African savanna to a rocky area or a very green and wet place.

An amazing and majestic experience that should be on everyone's bucketlist
Wildlife:
There isn't another place in the world where there are more wild animals per square miles as in this crater. Everywhere you look, you will see animals. What makes it more special is the amount of different animals that are living in this crater. There is a chance to see almost everything exept giraffes (they cant climb down the steep walls), cheeta's and leopards becouse of the territorial lions and huge amount of hyena's. For the lucky ones there is also a chance to see a glimp of the extremely endangered black rhino.
Scenery:
However the crater isn't big, there is a big variety of scenery. At first, when you drive down, you will see a kind of bush against the steep walls. On the floor there are two small forrests (good spots for elephant and birds), some small lakes and a river (good chance to see hippo's and grey crowned cranes), a salty lake full of minerals and of course the savanna.
Transportation:
The only way to visit this crater is by small jeeps. They are realy comforteble and have open roofs so you realy can see in any direction.
The roads are sandy and bumpy but thats the beauty of Africa.
Guide:
Our guide was a realy friendly person who had alot of knowledge of the African wildlife. They also know the greatest spots for observing animals. Just ask what you want to see and they will drive towards it.
Higlights:
1: There are two picknickspots in this game reserve where you have permission to leave the car. One is in a small forrest and another at one of the most beautiful lakes in Tanzania where you can observe some hippo's from a realy close but safely distance. There are also some special birds at picknickspot 2 like: great white pelican, african spooners and lesser flamingo.
2: If you are lucky then there is a chance to see some black maned lions or black rhino's at the savanna.
3: Viewpoint when you have left the crater. It's on top of the crater and if the sky is clear, you realy have a good view that's breathtaking.
The Ngorongoro crater has also lots of kind of birds. Especially in the forrests and at the small lakes. It also has the most biggest amount of grey crowned cranes that i have ever seen before. Sometimes in groups of 100 and more.
Also see: www.natuurfotografiestefan.jimdo.com for some beautiful images that i have taken in this crater and on my journey trough Kenya and Tanzania.

Review about Tanzania by Stefan van Schaik
Tanzania is a bit more touristic than Kenya, but it also has alot more gamereserves. If you realy want to see the big 5, the best chance is in Tanzania. I only needed 1 day in the Serengeti and 1 day in the Ngorongoro Crater to see all of them.
For birders, its a real paradise. I was lucky to see more then 130 different kind of birds in less then two weeks.
