Breathtaking experience
Overall rating
5/5

Definitely one of the best experiences of my life. Recommending to everyone, best month to go October, we have seen so many animals mating. We have visited Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. I came for elephants and they crossed our path multiple times. We have seen all big five animals and many more.

Amazing Experience - would repeat it in a heart beat!
Overall rating
5/5

We had a great safari with Salim and the Zamunda Team and would definitely recommend them.

Godfrey our guide was the best part! Thanks to his superb eagle eyes and experience he would spot animals from miles a way and we got to see everything; from elephants to lions, cheetahs and a leopard. He is extremely well informed about all things animals and Tanzanian culture -it was a pleasure listening to his stories.

We had good food every day and really enjoyed all the lodges that Zamunda helped with booking.

Overall a great experience! We would happily repeat the Serengeti multiple times over

Beautiful scenery and nice people
Overall rating
4/5

We had a great time visiting Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro NP, where we encountered lots of animals, including lions, elefants, hippos, giraffes, buffalos, gnus, and many others. We had nice weather in november.
Arusha was very crowded, specially at rush hours, so driving was quiet difficult.
We met nice people, our tour operator Benson Safari did a very good job.
I can recommend Tansania as a beautiful destination for safari.

An Adventurous Experience
Overall rating
4/5

For me it was an Adventurous Experience, I was stunned by the gorgeous beaches in Zanzibar, the water and the people and vibe here is so much fun, but the safaris experiences were very exciting, it was wild, beautiful but at the same time difficult to feel safe, we had a very dangerous driver. We got into a car accident going down from Ngorongoro mountain direction exit the Natural Park. We almost couldn't tell the story.
The operator of the tour sold us a package for 3 friends and I, but the driver didn't follow our instructions from the beginning. The driver and the private cooker were never on time, making us waste a lot of valuable time. Also, the safari car broke 4 times in 4 days. Each one of us paid a lot of money for the safaris, but the quality of what it was offer was not good at all. The campsites were not clean, and the shower doors didn't close properly. The tents were ok, but didn't close as they should, and the sleepingbags offered were not good at all, they washed them and ruin the stuff inside, so we were cold at night.

We had a great tour company (Serengeti Clarity) and they did a perfect job. There is not a single point to complain. We had a great and unforgetable trip.
I have travelled through more than 150 countries. But Tanzania is in the top 10!

Beautiful country, we were made to feel very welcome

This was our first time on Safari and in Tanzania. From the start, everyone we met was welcoming and happy that we were visiting their country. We had arranged a safari through Safari by Z and had the wonderful Fadhili as our guide/driver. We stayed 8 days and visited Tarangire , Lake Manyara but we were pleased that we left the best to last, Serengeti . On our way back we went to Ngorongora Crater which was amazing. We were so lucky to see so many different animals on our trips (elephants, zebra, cheetah. lions etc etc). The list just goes on & on (hate to think how many 100's of photos we took !) and this was completely down to the knowledge of our guide, Fadhili Our days were filled with meeting friendly local people, beautiful scenery, wonderful animals, terrible roads (thank goodness that Fadhili drove us slowly!). Wonderful to see the Maasai people, looking after their cows/goats/donkeys as we drove through the Parks. We never failed to be surprised and thrilled about how diverse the area was, surely making Tanzania a top destination to go to. Ballooning over the Serengeti was superb, very well organised and a must, even though it isn't cheap!. We went slightly out of season which worked in our favour, the Parks weren't too busy. Your guide and the Safari company you choose, is so important because it is them that makes sure you get to see the best of Tanzania and their Parks. All in all, a fabulous holiday, it exceeded our expectations and cannot be recommended highly enough as a must go to destination. Visit Tanzania, go on safari, immerse yourself in their culture, you won't be disappointed.

I completed a 3 day safari following a trip to Mafia and enjoyed every minute of our trip. The tour driver was knowledgeable and made the trip more enjoyable. Whilst the weather on the drive to and from Dar to Nyerere National Park was rainy, that didn't take away from the beauty of the country and the wildlife we were able to see on our boat and walking safaris. The game drive round Nyerere was incredible, we were lucky to see a whole host of wildlife including giraffes, elephants, zebra and hippos.
The lodge we stayed in was beautiful and the staff were helpful.
Tanzania is a beautiful country with such a vast range of wildlife encounters available

Extraordinary diverse scenery, wildlife (wow) and overall expereince
Overall rating
5/5

We did a five day safari with Easy Tours with our guide Hubert. We could not have asked for more and it was beyond expectations. We saw a vast variety or birds and animals and for the "twitchers" that are reading our guide had excellent knowledge of birds. We saw lions, cheetahs and leopard on every day in the serengetti and the communication between guides telling each other where everything is is so great. We found this time of the year not so crowded and certainly was nice to be just surrounded by few trucks not more then 10 at any time. We didn't do the Masai Mara village tour as ethically this doesn't sit well with us but others that we heard did it loved it.

I can't reccomend Tanzania enough. Vivian at Easy Tours was excellent at organising our tour and answered all our questions and was super helpful and responsive. Small tour group with big care.
