Unforgettable Semeji
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
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

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!

Fabulous safari, great people, amazing animals!
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 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

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

An unforgettable trip!
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!

Safari experience in mid-range package
Read more
in Serengeti Mawe tented camp was excellent and is well worth it. The communication with the tour operator was fluent and friendly. Online payment of reservation fee would be welcome instead of bank transfer which can't be insured. We can recommend Kili Slope especially for good value for money of our mid-range safari package.

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.

with a couple of exceptions not overwhelming
I chose African Habitat safari company as it had good reviews and states in its info that they "believe in going above & beyond". That was not our perception. The interaction ended with the deposit payment.
On arrival in Arusha we were taken to the office of the agent they employ there & he allocated whatever driver & vehicle he chose. Really we could have put all the safari companies in a hat & drawn out one to go with. All the research we did to try to choose a "good" company was a bit of a waste of time.
we negotiated with the agent to send a taxi to transfer us to the airport for departure as we stayed in the area for two nights after the safari ended,,he forgot !! After lots of excuses a taxi arrived & we just made our flight. It just reinforced to us that despite all the "jumbo" & "akuna matatta" we are just an income stream
