well organised and good guides
the guides were very good and the tour well organised. the veheciles were very good for the savannah and the actual forest area but would not recommend that for very long ( 6 to 8 hours ) drive.
All the lodges and the hotels were very good and very good staff every where

Private safari, well organized, value for money
We've got a very nice 1 day trip to Arusha NP with these guys. It worth visiting, especially if you don't have a lot of time and money for a big safari. We've seen a lot of giraffes, antelopes, monkeys, warthogs, zebras, flamingos, cranes and even hippos ears sticking out of a beautiful lake :) We had the whole car for two of us and very good driver and guide Wilson. We could customize our rout ad hoc and Wilson was telling a lot of interesting facts about animals. Jacky was very good in all communications and I never waited here email reply more then 5-10 minutes. So we DO recommend Compass Safari!

Review about Tarangire National Park by Olga Solovyeva
There really is a lot of baobabs. It is necessary to look.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Olga Solovyeva
We were bitten by a tse-tse fly. This left an unpleasant impression of the safari.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Olga Solovyeva
Ngorongoro Crater has more advertising. In the crater there are not so many animals as the guidebooks write.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Olga Solovyeva
There are not many animals here. This is not a big park.

It's great if it were not for the Tsetse fly
The nature of Tanzania is beautiful. We had an excellent guide who showed us a diverse animal world. Hotels on the safari were not bad, but the hotels in the country itself are terrible. In general, the safari was pleasant.

Without this company my dream of seeing the Gorillas wouldn't be complete.
I found Martz Safaris through Safari Bookings. Our budget wasn't very big, and every other company was quoting huge prices just to see the gorillas. This was my last item on my quest to complete 101 Dreams Come True. Martz worked within my budget, and gave me more than I could've asked for while helping me to complete my final dream - to see the Gorillas in the wild.
I was skeptical before booking because there weren't many reviews. I'm so happy I took the chance.
They took care of every detail from start to finish, making certain my friend and I were treated like queens. The personal touches, the itinerary created just for us, our guide Kassim (please request him when you book), were all fantastic. By the end Moses, who set up the entire tour, became a friend, as did Kassim. We felt like we were able to see and know the real Uganda, and I'm forever grateful for this experience. I can't wait to return.
I highly recommend you work with this local company compared to overpriced foreign companies. They may not have many reviews, but soon they will be known as one of the best.

Our tour guide, Kassim, made this the trip of a lifetime!
Kassim, has to be the greatest guide I've ever experienced. I've traveled to 39 different countries and I was skeptical about doing any type of tour. Kassim changed my opinion. He took care of every detail and was knowledgeable about every aspect of our trip. He made certain we were with the best group to have an incredible gorilla experience. We were on a very tight budget, but somehow the tour felt like we saw and did more than other people we met on much more expensive tours. Kassim helped us to understand the local culture, spoke honestly with us about his country and his love for it. By the end, I considered him my friend. We had many long drives that included much laughter.
If you want the greatest experience of Uganda I highly suggest Kassim and his company to guide you. This way you will experience the country not just be an observer.
