First safari - absolutely outstanding
We had a fantastic time in South Africa. Thanks for arranging the safari.
Your service and communication was first class right from initial contact.

I had such a great trip. There were even things arranged between days filled with activities
I had such a blast with Charlie’s Travels! Since I was solo traveling, visiting family in Kenya and wanted to go “off the beaten track” in Kenya and Tanzania, Charlie’s was the best choice for me. I’ve seen and done more than expected. Beside the safari I had a great time during the hike and motorbike trip with Maasai through their holy land. Sanne and Erick took care of everything, including transfers and accommodations for the days between and after the activities when I was relaxing on Zanzibar. Extra thanks to these two people who made my trip totally complete!!! Asante sana na nitakuona wakati mwingine ;)

Amazing experience!
Mwangaza Safari truly provides a five star experience for their clients. Ms. Mwajabu is very attentive and she gave her best to satisfy all ours wants. Communication was excellent from the very beginning , on time and she provided us with all the information needed as well as friendly advices.
Our driver Athman was great! He is very friendly, communicative and knowledgeable. We enjoyed spending time with him and he always made us feel welcome. Highly recommend him as a driver because he made our experience even better. *Asante Sana!
Gilbert took us on a game drive and on the last day to Massai village - very friendly and communicative as well.
On our way back to Dar El Salaam, we missed the ferry due to high traffic. Ms. Mwajabu reacted promptly and we were able to change the tickets for tomorrow's ferry and she also provided us with the accommodation. At the end, it turned out to be just fine. Athman took a great care of us while we were there.
We are very thankful for all the people that were part of our experience!
We highly recommend Mwaganza Safari.

Perfect Service and Excellent safari, go for it!!
Went on safari in early January and was very satisfied with the arrangements. We travelled as a family, we booked everything from home. We arrived to Arusha after five days at Zanzibar and we were picked up by Allan, the owner of NkolloTours. He took
us to our hotel and then stayed with us in the afternoon, taking us to a good lunch place and showing us where to shop. After that we had a meeting with our guide Jeff to discuss the safari and possible changes to the safari to be able to catch sight of as many animals as possible. Later in the evening, Allan and Jeff took us to a great local BBQ place. It was great and so nice of them to set aside all this time and effort to make us feel welcome to Arusha. Early next morning we set off on our safari with Jeff. He was very knowledgable and a truly good guy to have around and with interesting views on Tanzania and all that this country has to offer. Our safari was pretty compact - only three days - but still we managed to see so much!! It was just awesome! The only set back was that the first days jeep ride was a bit too long (from Arusha to Ndute area). My personal favorite was however Tarangire park and all the elephants. During the booking procedure (I started the booking 10 months before take off) I had extensive email conversations with Allan who always was very prompt in replying and explaining to me. Conclusively, I truly recommend NkolloTours you will not regret it!

A unique experience that I will never forget.
We decided to visit Tanzania and the Serengeti and after a good few hours of research on the web, we booked a 6 day 5 night safari with Eyes on Serengeti. There were not many reviews for the company, as they are relatively new, but the communication was good and we felt that Richard designed our trip especially for us, taking into consideration where most animals would be in mid January.
We were met from the airport on arrival, and taken to our first lodge where we were briefed by Richard and Godwin. Both had excellent English, and after speaking with them for a short while all our concerns were gone, we knew we were going to get on, and we were excited about our trip ahead.
We set off in a modern, Toyota land cruiser with Safari roof and fridge, which was more than spacious as it was only the two of us. Our first stop was the Tarangire National park, which was an amazing introduction into safaris. We saw elephants bathing at the waterhole, others rolling in mud with their young having fun oblivious to us watching from just a few metres away. There were giraffes grazing beside the land cruiser, ostrich wandering past and a lioness in the tree.
Our next stop was the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, our first view was from the edge of the crater and is an African experience I will never forget. Our drive down just got better, passing Masai villages until we arrived at the crater floor where we saw lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalos, hippopotamus and much more.
Lake Masak was our next stop, another fantastic landscape, partially forested with grasslands, and a great spot for a game drive Our highlights were a cheetah with her three cubs, and a pack of lions. We were within a couple of metres of all these animals, yet felt safe at all times in the hands of Godwin our guide.
Our last two days were spent in the Serengeti, which is another world. We found ourselves in the middle of the great plains, not another toyota in sight, driving through the wilder beasts and zebras, discovering more and more lions, cheats and hyenas. We could have leaned out of the window and stroked a male lion, we were so close.
Godwin has 20 years of experience as a guide, he is a wonderful human being who is informative, funny and I think he really enjoys his job. He can also spot a great photograph and many times he positioned the toyota ready for the animals to walk into shot.
He made our safari a unique experience that I will never forget.

Prompt replies to questions, knowledgeable, helpful making arrangements.
From my first inquiry to my last questions about trip details Aileen was most helpful and prompt in replying. Our guide, Joseph, arrived at hotel on time, was knowledgeable about Nairobi, and Maasai Mara. The jeep was comfortable, the lodge lovely with very good food. Joseph "found" all the animals we hoped to see with exception of leopard. We felt very fortunate to see giraffes, zebras, lions, cheetahs, a few wildebeest (most in Serengetti at this time of year), and one rhino! I recommend working with Tamasha Arika!

So exciting
Alice was so helpful in planning our trip and our driver guide Bariki was just fantastic and could spot animals at a distance. The lodges were very nice and we enjoyed the cultural African music over dinner. All went very smooth.

They planned a trip of a lifetime for us
My boyfriend and I had a trip of a lifetime last April, organised by Malawian Style. The itinerary they created for us was perfect, with a mix of beautiful and unique places in Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia. Everywhere we stayed was so special, whether it be on the lake or on safari. I cannot recommend them enough if you are looking to visit this incredible part of the world.
