Great.
Our experience with this company was perfect. Our guide, William, was excellent, allowing us to see all the Big Five, even up close. The accommodations we stayed in were consistent with our itinerary. I recommend Friend Camp for anyone looking to stay in a tented camp. For anyone choosing to sleep in a tent in Ngorongoro, I recommend very warm clothing. The overall experience was excellent, and there were no unexpected issues. Highly recommended.

Amazing 6 night 7 day safari experience with Mosu safari tours
We just finished my mobil safari with Mosu camping in Kaziikini, khwai, Savuti and river cruise of Cresta Mowana. Safaris from Maun to Kasane. Kemy always replied emails as soon as possible. Our guide Tebby is knowledgeable and good at finding animals. Our chef George cooked very delicious meals every day. And the equipment team Steve, OT and Gee provided clean and comfortable tent. We viewed lots of animals during the wild camping safari. It was our first time safari and a memorable experience in Botswana. We appreciate their efforts to make our safari great and amazing. Mosu is a reliable safari company.

Truly Unforgettable
My wife and I recently completed an incredible 11-day safari adventure in Tanzania with Akondo Adventures, and it exceeded all of our expectations.
From the very beginning, Philip was an outstanding travel agent. He was responsive, professional, and helped create an itinerary that made our anniversary trip truly unforgettable. His attention to detail and commitment to making sure everything went smoothly gave us confidence throughout the entire planning process.
Our safari guide, Richard, was absolutely exceptional. His passion for wildlife and love for his job were evident every single day. We were amazed by his knowledge of the animals we viewed throughout the trip. Most importantly, he was determined to help us achieve our bucket-list goal of seeing the Big Five, and thanks to his expertise and dedication, we successfully saw all of the big five! Richard’s experience gave up incredible viewing opportunities made the safari experience even more special.
We also experienced an unexpected challenge when our luggage was delayed and didn’t arrive until two days after we landed. Thankfully, our transfer driver Ezekiel was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. What could have been a stressful situation became much easier to manage because of his caring attitude and willingness to assist us every step of the way.
The entire Akondo Adventures team went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing experience. From the planning stage to the final day of our trip, we felt genuinely cared for and well taken care of. We highly recommend Akondo Adventures to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget!

An Unforgettable Tanzania Safari & Zanzibar Adventure with Akondo Adventures
My husband and I recently completed an incredible Tanzania safari and Zanzibar beach vacation with Akondo Adventures in June 2026, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we started planning until the day we flew home, everything was seamless, professional, and unforgettable.
A huge thank you to Philip, our travel agent, who was incredibly responsive throughout the entire booking process. Despite the time difference between California and Tanzania, he always replied quickly, answered every question thoroughly, and even helped with last-minute packing questions just days before departure. His excellent communication gave us confidence that we had chosen the right company.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by our transfer driver, Ezekiel, who made us feel welcome immediately. He was friendly, punctual, and ensured every transfer was smooth and comfortable.
Our safari guide, Richard, was truly exceptional and played a huge role in making this trip so memorable. His knowledge of wildlife, ecosystems, local culture, and animal behavior was remarkable. He had an incredible ability to spot animals from great distances and always positioned the vehicle perfectly for viewing and photography. Thanks to Richard, we enjoyed unforgettable game drives and incredible wildlife encounters throughout our journey.
The itinerary itself was perfectly designed, combining some of Tanzania's most iconic safari destinations with a relaxing beach getaway in Zanzibar. We experienced the beauty of Tarangire National Park, the vast plains of the Serengeti, and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater before ending our adventure on the stunning beaches of Zanzibar. It was the perfect balance of excitement, wildlife, scenery, and relaxation.
The accommodations throughout the trip were excellent, and every detail was thoughtfully planned. We never had to worry about logistics, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience and focus on creating lifelong memories.
What stood out most was Akondo Adventures' attention to detail and genuine commitment to providing exceptional service. Every aspect of the trip felt personalized, organized, and stress-free.
If you're considering a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend Akondo Adventures. Thank you, Philip, Ezekiel, and Richard, for giving us the trip of a lifetime. We returned home with unforgettable memories, amazing photographs, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of Tanzania. We would not hesitate to travel with Akondo Adventures again.

A Truly Personal Experience in Tanzania.
I heard of this company after getting a good word from the only member of my extended family who's ever traveled to Africa. They had a wonderful experience with Tanzania Explorer, and with so many companies and questions when trying to plan these massive vacations, I chose to go with a known company.
I am so glad I did. From the very beginning, the process was incredibly transparent and customizable to fit our desires, needs, and comfort. After the initial draft itinerary, we were given ample opportunity to make changes, offer suggestions, and consider all the options in front of us to make sure we left Africa satisfied.
While in Tanzania, all the staff was so accommodating, communicative, and fun to be around. No stone was left unturned to ensure our experience was the best it could be.
I ended up having a health scare while in Zanzibar. And Tanzania Explorer was there every step of the way checking in on me (both in person at the hospital and over messages constantly) and ensuring I felt safe, comfortable, and that I was going to be on my feet as soon as possible. The warmth they showed me, along with the staff of the hotel I stayed at which partners closely with Tanzania Explorer, is something I'll never forget.
If you want to really customize your trip, have fun on these long game drives, and feel the kindness of Africa, go with these guys!
Our tour operator went above and beyond to make this trip special for us! Amazing!
We had an amazing time on our safari. I never imagined just how beautiful Africa would be. We saw the big five along with so many other beautiful animals. I’ve never seen so many vibrant colors and the landscape didn’t even look real! Apart from the beauty of tanazania, our favorite thing had to be the people. Before we even started on our journey Jessica at dancing zebra planned everything perfectly for us. She was so knowledgeable and took time to talk with us (multiple phone calls) to alleviate any of our concerns and answer all of our questions. Our flight that we personally booked got changed and they had no problem rearranging our accommodations to match the new flight. Our tour guide Frank was phenomenal. He was so knowledgeable and taught us all kinds of animal facts. He made the safari for us because he was so into the animals. I really wanted to see the great migration and he went above and beyond to contact different people to make that happen. The migration was breathtaking. Frank took a ton of pictures that looked professionally done and shared them with us at the end of the trip. All of the lodges we stayed at were beautiful and the employees were absolutely amazing and so hospitable. We learned Swahili, had private dinners with gorgeous views, and went on nature walks learning about the culture and surrounding areas. We were so sad to return home and will definitely be back. And there is no doubt that we will use dancing zebra, Jessica, and Frank the next time we book!

Elegance with excellence
We had SVAI arrange an itinerary for the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Zanzibar. It was the most organized and well executed private tour I have ever booked. Right from the moment we landed in Kilimanjaro, our private transfers between airports and hotels were great with really good drivers. They were super communicative, and had all the small details well thought of. Our tour guide, Emmanuel for the safari part of our trip, was amazing. He knew all the spots of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, enabling us to see the Big 5. And our trip ended in Zanzibar with a beautiful hotel and excellent private transfers. It was elegance with excellence, if I had to sum it up. Well done SVAI team! We will definitely be back!

The best company to go on a safari in Tanzania
Simbaland from the beginning showed great knowledge and helped us choose the safari that best suited what we needed. Both the Sedrack guide and the company management have always been aware that we are well and enjoy the experience. They have included many activities, of high quality and at an unbeatable price. We have travelled around many parts of the world and have never had such a friendly and close treatment as in this company. We will definitely be back and it will be with Simbaland.

The service provided was excellent, reliable, and offered great value for money. I would highly recommend Adven Tours and Travel to anyone looking for a smooth and memorable travel experience.
