We found Shemeji safari through booking safari.The communication with Emma via email was good and fast. She organized for us 5day safari (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). Our guide Edward was very safe, frendly and patient; chef Godson had been cooking great meals, he also cooked for us the african traditional food-ugali! We were very lucky for the weather, it was every time sunny, and we were able to see very beatifull landscapes.. Our guide Edward was able to make us see animals from short distances, expecially 5 Big of Africa, we made a lot of great photos . We aren't disappointed to have chosen Shemeji safari, it's a very serious and faithful company . We recommend SHEMEJI SAFARI!

Tanzania forever

Our sixth trip to Africa, this time in Tanzania. For the organization we used Earthlife Expedition and the choice was right. Thanks to the valuable advice of Caudence we have built a route through the parks of the north that has fully satisfied us.
The variety of the landscapes of Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti has left us open-mouthed on more than one occasion, and the emotions of sleeping in beautiful not fenced tented camps listening to the sounds of the African night can not be described, only experienced . We were able to enjoy the rich fauna thanks to the precious guide of Paul, expert and prodigal of information related to the lifestyles of the various animals in their habitats; Paul was much more than a guide, impeccable in his work, but a beautiful person we will never forget.
One of the experiences that we particularly appreciated was the half day spent visiting the village of Mto wa mbu; we have been able to get an idea of ​​split of authentic
Read more daily life. Otherwise it was the visit to the Masai village, which, although there is a concentration of their traditions, is clearly set up to accommodate tourists passing through.
It has been 11 days really special, Earthlife Expeditions has confirmed a valid organizational capacity, asante sana!

We traveled with Earthlife Expeditions and had an amazing 10 days. The wildlife and scenery are over the top. I felt like I was in a National Geographic movie. The accommodations were wonderful- they have all ranges from budget to luxury, the food was good, our guide Joseph was outstanding. This was a trip of a lifetime. I would recommend it to everyone. Just be aware that you are in the wild, with dust and bumpy roads. I just reviewed my pictures from 3 weeks ago and want to go again! It doesn't have to be super expensive.!!!

Excellent safari with a wonderful guide, saw wildlife up close!

We visited Tarangire - 1 day, Ngorongoro crater 1 day, central Serengeti 2 days, Northern Serengeti 2 days. We liked Tarangire park the best with its many elephant herds, prides of lions, wildebeest and zebra herds. Serengeti was amazing and we saw herds of wild buffaloes, a leopard, a cheetah, herds of wildebeest migration, in addition to the wonderful scenery especially in Northern Serengeti.
We were happy with our tented camps and food provided.
Our guide Iddy with Takims Holidays was excellent. We managed to see cheetah as well as a leopard which are hard to spot. He knew exactly where the animals would move if there were many jeeps and hence were able to get very close to the wildlife.
We would notice other jeeps following us wherever we went since our driver had a good reputation.
Our son got very sick with severe diarrhea when we left Ngorongoro. He knew about the resident doctor at Four Seasons in Central Serengeti and she was able to stabilize his
Read more condition so we could complete the safari. The staff at the Central Serengeti tented camp didn't know about this facility.
Absolutely recommend Tanzania safari, as well as our tour operator, Takims Holidays and mainly our guide Iddy

Hello tanzania were so helpful before the trip with everything, Madame Mwajabu met us the day before to tell us all about the following days and made sure we were well prepared. All during the safari days the staff took perfectly good care of us! We had an amazing time and loved the "Hippo camp" in Seleous where we stayed! Our guide Michael was the best, he had all the answers and you could tell that he loved his job! He made everything interesting and we were so impressed. All of the staff in Hello Tanzania and on the camp were absolutely amazing, and we are so grateful!

A wonderful experience with Mama Savanna ; Safari/Beach holiday

We were so pleased with our first safari that was catered to our costs and hotel accommodations. Everything went as planned, no hiccups and the food and lodges and the tented camps were superb. From the first stages of planning and booking to the dropoff to airport , Alex had made sure of all the details. Our driver, Alan was great and patient with us (my daughter and I) and we had toured the serengeti, crater, Manyara , Natron and then we finished with the 7 day island of Zanzibar. The sightings and experience with wildlife will be with us forever. Truly a wonderful experience! The weather and food was in our favour also.

If you love wildlife visiting Tanzania is something you must do.

First let me say that Suricata Safaris was fantastic to work with. I especially loved there guides while climbing Kilimanjaro and going on safari for seven days. I am a professional photographer and they were more than willing to work with me on getting the perfect shot. I can not say enough about them. I have visited many beautiful places and climbed a lot of mountains. Tanzania and Kilimanjaro have there own unique and beautiful vibe. Very similar to the wonderful people that live there. The wildlife is second to none in my opinion. Elephants, lions, hippos, leaopards, cheetahs, antelope, it was all there and in massive numbers. Visiting Tanzania is something every adventurer needs to do. If you are reading this wondering if you should go then do it. You will not regret it.

wonderful first safari with a great ranger

I believe that everything was just great. This was our first safari and it was as enjoyable for kids than for us. We had the chance to meet the big 5 and the ugly 5 too!
Rachid, our ranger was very nice and professional and he took great care of us. the accomodations we have chosen were good too.
People were very kind and friendly.
Weather was good even though it was cloudy in morning the dyas were sunny.
wildlife and animals were stunning. We could see the wildbeest migration and crossing Mara river : top! even if few have been killed by crocodiles :(
I was a bit disappointed by N'gorongoro crater : I was expecting more of it and thought it would be the best place. To us it was too crowded (40 or 50 cars around a rhino!!!). That's the only bad comment i could give.
For the rest, it was just great.

When you want to mark something off your bucket or wish list you do your research. I research and requested itineraries (and quotes) from 10 different tour companies. I knew what we wanted and that was a safari to go down as our best family vacation ever and a few nights on a beach just for fun and relaxation. World Air Travel and Tours delivered this and SO much more. They also provided a “tip sheet” that helped us make sure we were appropriately packed with everything we may need and made the VISA (immigration) process so smooth. Their communication and detailed itinerary matched every aspect of our safari and Zanzibar beach fun! Our guide, John, went out of his way to make sure we had a memorable experience. John answered all our questions, pulled out books to show us more about what we were seeing, entertained our 12 year old who asked more questions than 4 children combined, and never pressured us and gave us time to enjoy his beautiful country (Tanzania). We visited Tarangire
Read more National Park, L. Manyara N. Park, Serengeti (2 nights camping too on the Serengeti), and Ngorongoro (crater). We spent 2 nights on the Serengeti and woke to sounds of the animals and saw different ones also right from our tent! The links World Air Travel and Tours provided to us matched the places we were going and staying at. Everything was up to date and current. The food was diverse and so good also. Our kids loved the food and for the 12 days we were there never once asked for their technology! At the end of our safari World Air Travel and Tours also coordinated our beach family time in Zanzibar. They arrange a driver, room, air travel, and provided everything we needed to relax and enjoy the beach! I would recommend this company to ANYONE who wants a memorable experience. The memories that they helped us achieve will stay with us forever!

We are a family with two adult children and found the tour company - AAA Express Adventure - on the internet. Such choices are generally risky, but were very satisfied with our safari tour. Booking the trip went fast and smoothly. The company provided exactly what they promised. We had a skilled and competent tour guide, Salvatori. The accommodations were nice. All in all, we are impressed by the scenic beauty of Tanzania and the wildlife there.
