Best safari ever!
Excellent, extensive and friendly communication before, during and after safari. Flexible in customizing the itinerary, although that was hardly needed since the route and parks suggested as well as the accommodations suggested were perfect for us! Accommodations are all in the best location, luxurious and comfortable. Transportation is very good, clean, spacious, comfortable and well-maintained. Service and guide are excellent! Aside from the trip being very well organized they also add value with thoughtful personal touches, like a personalized bottle of wine for our anniversary and a fridge in the car with our favourite drinks. No surprises. A lot of value for your money, so we can highly recommend!

Amazing safari! Everything I wanted and so much more!
We recently got back from an 11 day safari of Kenya and Tanzania. Specifically, we did the Masai Mara, Central serengeti, ngorongoro crater and tarangire parks. I researched many companies but chose Africa Safari Classics and am so I glad I did! Maurice, who organized the safari was outstanding in creating an amazing itinerary and executing it seamlessly. He was extremely responsive to all my questions throughout the process. We specifically asked for all tented camps because we wanted to be completely immersed in the nature and they were amazing! And the food, wow! We flew between parks for Masai mara and Central serengeti and Maurice handled all the logistics and always had someone with us for all transfers. About our guide. I can not say enough about Authuman our guide. He made our trip! His 27 years of experience really showed. We saw everything! I mean everything! He knew where to find the animals and always positioned us perfectly. So many times, it was just our jeep looking at lions or elephants or rhinos. Right in front of us, no need for the telephoto lens. Any question I had, he knew. Do yourself a massive favor and ask for him if you book a safari with this company. I can and have highly recommended this company to friends and family already. Just go, you will l love it!

Fantastic
Safari was excellent! Airport pick up and drop off were smooth. We saw all of the big five. The lodgings that Meijo arranged were incredible with Maasai warriors standing guard. When I walked out the front door Zebra were grazing two meters away.
I’m sure that all of the guides are good but Abdul was very helpful and knowledgeable. He knew all of the spots to find hard to find animals like cheetah and leopard so request him as your guide.

It was the best adventure that we ever had!
What an adventure! Our safari guide, Elisante, was incredible. We always felt comfortable, and our wishes were always accommodated. We saw all the animals. Communication with the safari office was excellent. We recommend Serengeti Green Tanzania 100%.
The best hike with Isaack and Naomi
We could not have had a better experience completing our Kilimanjaro hike with Isaack and Naomi.
Isaack John was our head guide. It was clear right from our pre-trek briefing that he was a knowledgeable, organised, detail-oriented, and considered guide whom we had full confidence in his ability to take us up the mountain. His concern for our comfort and safety was clear from the start in the thorough approach he took to ensuring we had the right kit. On the mountain, he continued that same confidence-ensuring care. He was so diligent in both checking in on our health and also carefully explaining to us what would be required in our next day’s hike. He was also great fun to hike with - consistently, full of jokes, good stories, and songs. This was all instrumental in keeping us motivated through the hardest parts of the hike (Kilimanjaro is not for the faint-hearted!), especially on that summit night.
Naomi Palangyo was just fantastic. Right from the off, we found her to be an enthusiastic guide who was a lot of fun to be around. Naomi had a huge depth of knowledge of the mountain but also took a truly caring approach to helping us get up the mountain. She seemed to be able to read exactly when the pace needed to slow a little, where we were tired or finding the hike harder, or when we were needing motivation. She was a constantly sunny presence on the mountain, whose optimism never wavered, and we just really enjoyed being around her.
Nicholas Limu cooked up a storm for us every breakfast, lunch, and dinner of our hike. We hadn’t expected our climb to turn into a tasty introduction to Tanzanian cuisine but it did! Particular highlights included Mchuzi wa Samaki (a fish curry with tomato, ginger, and coconut), steak kebabs and fried rice, and (a real home comfort for us) his own version of pizza and pasta bolognese. His soups were also real warmers on the cold nights on the mountain.
John Assey was our waiter throughout the week but that really undersells his role in that he was responsible for making our stay at camp as comfortable as possible. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for him. As well as serving us dinner, waking us up, and getting us bowls for washing, he really helped us out in sorting us out with charging packs when our own stopped working. Throughout this, he was upbeat and a delight to be around - even when he had to wake us at 11pm in the middle of bitter near-hurricane force winds to get us up for our summit hike!
Praygood Daudi was also excellent as our summit porter. Like Naomi and Issack, he was instrumental in motivating us to the top, and, quite literally at one point, dragged us up the mountain.
There were then our porters - George, Anoldi, Godson Eliamani, Dereck Nyangusi, and Bernardi. We still have no idea how they managed to lift the entirety of camp up the mountain each day. Their presence at camp and coming to meet us at the end of each day always lifted our spirits. Special shout-out also to George for helping our exhausted bodies find their footing on the downhill from the summit, and for wiping the dust off our boots at the end of each day.
I cannot recommend Zanzi highly enough!

Very nice people especially our tour guide Moloko! Good food and cool animals as well.
Out tour guide Moloko was very nice and helped us see all of the animals that Africa has to offer! We even saw the Leopards up close and personal even with the heat

An exceptionally professional tour operator that took flawless care of us on every excursion
We were picked up promptly at the airport and taken to our accommodation. Every single pickup for every event was right on time. Our personal host, Delight, was friendly, welcoming, and always by our side in the most pleasant, unobtrusive way. His extensive knowledge of the local area, botany, and history deeply enriched our experiences. It was a true pleasure to have him with us!

it was great
It was a great experience! It was a really long journey (from dar es salaam with train and taxi) but it was worth it. Talib and our driver were very kind and gave them best to make us a great day. The communication was good and our tourguide answered every question!
The money was worth the trip.

Amazing big 5 experience with mr. Abdi and best service.
For my parents' 30th wedding anniversary, we went on a trip with Unforgettable Safari. It was a wonderful experience and I wouldn't have wanted to do it with anyone else. They surprised my parents with lovely gifts and a special experience. Mr. Abdi was highly experienced and showed us the most beautiful places in the Serengeti
