the best
I am Japanese. When searching for Tanzanian safari tours in Japan, I could only find somewhat similar and slightly expensive tours. However, after looking at reviews and searching further, I was able to book this safari tour. The cost performance is excellent, and I was moved by the performance of the cooks and guides. I recommend this tour to Japanese people as well.

Unforgettable memories
This was definitely a day to remember. We booked a day trip to Mikumi from Zanzibar. The response was immediate and Safina was incredibly helpful and flexible. For me as a European control freak, it took a while to adjust to the “pole pole” ways, but in the end everything was indeed very well organised. Our guide Abel was super knowledgeable and friendly, we saw 10 different types of animals and had complete privacy, barely encountered any other cars. I 100% recommend and when we come back, we book with them again!

Amazing tour in Tanzania
They offer and organise a perfect tour of my family and friends. The itinerary can be flexibly arranged for different travelling purposes and expectations. Our guide (Albert) is a very kind, gentle, passionate, helpful and experienced guide who use all his efforts to help us to find animals and understand the local culture and knowledge. Will come back soon.

Brilliant!
It was an incredible experience. Our guide Freddy was extremely attentive and speaks excellent English. He knows a lot about the national parks and the animals as he grew up in the area (Arusha). We booked the camping option. It is possible to spend the night in the wilderness. They explained that the animals are nearby at night. However, they are peaceful and only curious as long as you stay calm. During the safari you meet new friends from all over the world because you eat together.
As an alternative, there is also the option of spending the nights in accommodation.
The food that Tito prepared for us every day (morning, lunch and evening) was excellent and also ideal for vegetarians.
All planning is taken care of during the trip and the transfers to the airports are well organized.
Any time!

Excellent Tour Operator & Guide, Lukus
I highly recommend Discovery Transfers and Tours for a great time in Namibia. My friend and I had only a week left before arriving in Namibia and were pressed for a reliable tour operator. Communication with Notti and Fanuel was great with prompt replies. They had catered to our requests and drawn-up an ititnerary just right within our budget.
What made the trip a 100% better was our guide, Lukus. He is a fantastic guide, definitely request for him! A very knowledgeable, yet humble and patient person. At Sossusvlei, we were aware that he did not need to hike up the dunes with us, but he did, because he knew the hike would be difficult. Without his constant encouragement, I'm sure my group would have just given up the hike in just 5 minutes. He even helped my friend down the dune, into deadvlei! Lukus also has extremely sharp eyes and is well aware of the habits of different animals. He always remained positive and communicated with other drivers to exchange information on animal sightings. Thanks to him, we saw ALL of the Big 5 in Etosha (lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant, rhino), in just a 2 game drives. He even drove extra miles so I could see more lionesses! We definitely felt safe and reassured having him around and were so glad that we did not have to do a self-drive, especially with the driving conditions in Etosha National Park and Sossusvlei. Thanks to Lukus, we had an amazing time in Namibia and can't recommend Namibia enough to our friends!
TLDR: Discovery Transfers and Tours is a reliable tour operator that takes into consideration your interests and replies very quickly. Our guide, Lukus, was AMAZING - definitely request for him. We got the best experience in Namibia thanks to Lukus.

Excellent!
We had a great 6 days safari with Yusuph from Lion King. Everything was in order already from the booking of the safari where we talked to Godwin. Smooth conversation and also quick to reply which was very nice. Yusuph was very polite, informative and respectful. Your wish is always the first priority. Can definitely recommend!

Best Safari! Especially in the off season! Can’t imagine during season
While skeptical about the pricing I wasn’t sure what kind of experience I would get for my first time doing an African safari. Keep in mind we chose the off season cause it was cheaper. Needless to say, I was blown away by the experience. Not only did we have the best tour guide that was LEADING the rest of the tour guides on where to go (talk about being with a pro) but we had the best views of all types of animals. It rained once during the day but it only lasted 20 minutes and back to sunshine and animal watching. We saw every animal you can get imagine (cheetahs, elephants, jaguar, hyenas, giraffes, a black rhino)!!!! We drove around a lot (which is probably the con of going during the off season cause animals were so spread out) but honestly 10/10 I would recommend to any and all! It was a great experience and I wouldn’t have done it with any other group. My only true con was the food. It wasn’t bad at all, it was quite delicious, I just wish there was a bit more variation. I would suggest bringing snacks if you feel you want something else as the road trips are long and the food is usually the same

Brilliant and Excellent
An unforgettable 3-day safari from Nairobi to Masai Mara exceeded expectations! Huge thanks to @mykissafaris and @realafricatravel for flawless planning. Mike, our incredible guide, ensured we spotted the Big 5 and more – leopards, lions, zebras, elephants, antelopes, giraffes, rhino. Lucky, yes, but also Mike's talent! Accommodating and detailed, they flawlessly executed the plan. Shoutout to Tim for bridging Kenya and US expectations seamlessly. Highly recommend for an amazing trip!

Recommendation!
The organization (airport transfers, trips between the parks, overnight stays, meals,…) was perfect.
The chef (Tito) cooked for us every day early morning, lunch and evening and it was delicious! (Also very suitable for vegetarians)
Our tour guide (Freddy) was super nice, his English was perfect and easy to understand and he could tell and explain a lot.
In summary, I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get to know the animals and nature in Tanzania!

Great and attentive organization
Victor and all the staff I dealt with, especially my driver guide Alex, are very accommodating and efficient. They paid attention to my suggestions and were quick to deal with some changes that were necessary. I'd book with them again without a doubt.
