Good
4/5

Tour with TiYANI was good.. commute was bumper than we would have liked but this had nothing to do with our driver. This was more to do with the poor shocks in the vehicle being used.

The Wifi worked well. Nice addes bonus.

Booking the tour was very seamless and good communication throughout the booking process for hotels.
4/5

Excellent communication, I was kept informed about various option at each stage. The guide provided to us was very knowledgeable and helped us maximize our time to see amboseli, lake Naivasha and Masai mara. The operator stayed connected through the trip and checked if hotel and food was good.

4/5

Just returned from our 14 day trip to Kenya and Tanzania with Frank of Serengeti Clarity, Arusha, Tanzania.
It was our first trip to Africa and we were fortunate to see the Great Wildebeest Migration, not once but TWICE, thanks to our amazing guide Daniel. A big thumbs up for him.
Regarding accomodations, Flamingo Asili Lodge (Overlooking Lake Manyara) and Heritage Mara Camp, Kogatende (Northern Serengeti) were a total disappointment and should be avoided
Nevertheless it was an incredible, extraordinary, superb, mind blowing and awesome experience.
Thanks to Frank and the entire Serengeti Clarity Team for this outstanding and memorable trip.

Very cool.
4/5

We did the 4 days safari. From Dar es Salaam to Nyere National Park, Driving to Mikumi Parc, back to Dar Es salaam. It was a very special experience. Something we never forget. We met the amazing Gladness and Abed. Gladness was our very professional and kind guide, she know a lot about flora and fauna and we learnt a lot from her about the nature and animals. Abed was our driver, very calm and nice energy, the sweetest guy. Couple of tips before you go: Snacks are limited as in, no snacks. if you want to bring little snacks you should. Be aware of long driving hours. You will be all day in the car. If you drive to the other parc, it will be much longer. Maybe best to pick 1 parc. Also remember, you are not in Europe or America, the cars aren't up to those standards, these are cars that have to go everyday on wobbly roads. So please be ready to shake around haha. Daude is very communicative and you will get an update everyday about your schedule. Thank you for this experience.

great communication
4/5

Sammy is chronically online and answers us very fast, realiable communication was out of the league. Drivers spoke ok level English good enough to communicate.
Hotels were nicely planned however certain areas were limited due to local conditions and infrastructure - eg.wifi hot water but all bearable with seeing the safari everyday . Last day restaurants meal did got us food poisoned though but it was expected and understandable. The rest of the trip was all good, spotted many animals up close! Pretty good trip overall.

My daughter and my cousins were very pleased with the tour and our tour guide. We were able to see the big five on our second day of the tour and were elated. Our tour guide Julius was the best.

A unique experience through Tanzania and Zanzibar designed by Gloria, leaving us great memories
4/5

Overall Experience
We booked a 10-day safari and Zanzibar package with Tanzania Pilgrimage Safaris, visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, the Serengeti, and the beaches of Zanzibar. Overall, it was a unique and memorable journey, and despite a few logistical hiccups along the way, we came home with incredible, unforgettable memories.

The Pros

Outstanding Communication: Communication from April through August was exceptional. Unlike other companies that only communicate via email, Gloria was always available on WhatsApp - both before and during the trip - at any hour and any day of the week. She showed great professionalism, understood our needs, and provided options that fit our budget.

Great Accommodations: All three accommodations during the safari were excellent (Sangaiwe Tented Lodgeת Serengeti Central Lodgeת Mbuni Serengeti Camp).

Dedicated Guide: Our guide, Justin, put in a lot of effort driving throughout the day and was very informative, even when the jeep had issues, sharing facts about the wildlife and the parks.

The Cons

Flight & Itinerary Change: We had originally planned to spend time in the Northern Serengeti to catch the Great Migration before taking a domestic flight to Zanzibar. However, on our first day in Arusha, we were informed that our stay and flight were moved to the Central Serengeti. Despite requesting to keep the original plan, it couldn't be adjusted. We still don't fully understand why this happened, and it unfortunately impacted our final game drive - we had to drive from the north a day after we got there back 3 hours to the Seronera Airstrip.

Wildlife Expectations: While we understand that a safari operator cannot guarantee specific animal sightings, we didn't get to see a cheetah, a hunt, or mating behavior. We expected our guide to be a bit more assertive in searching for these moments, though it could also have been down to nature and weather.

The Bottom Line
Tanzania Pilgrimage Safaris offered the best VALUE FOR MONEY and fit our budget better than any other operator (and I did extensive research). While there were a few issues along the way, we couldn't have done a safari like this within our budget anywhere else. The memories and overall experience we created with them were beyond our expectations.
