Tanzania is an excellent country for a first timer in the African continent!
Overall rating
5/5

My experience in Tanzania was highlighted by my tour company, Suricata Tours, who were extremely attentive and professional. Not to mention the staff, who was friendly and on it! Amazing experience!
In Zanzibar, I encountered a very expensive reality. Many times the prices were charged in dollars, and more expensive than Europe or the US, which makes me think, they should pass a law to charge everything in shillings. It makes no sense to charge in dollars, if that is not the national currency.

Tanzania is a must visit place if one wants to see the animals in the Wild.
Overall rating
5/5

Tanzania is now the only last place to see and experience the wild animals in the Wild.
In my tour in September 2023 I met few tourists who went to South Africa and saw the wild life there. In their words it was like seeing these animals in a Zoo. The lions there were afraid of humans whereas the Lions of Tanzania were actually wild and were not afraid of humans.
One lady Nancy aged 89 was speaking so low of wildlife in South Africa. In comparison with animals in Tanzania.
I told my wife n my friends that we were lucky to visit the right place !!!
Our tour was also nice and Vegetarian food was also provided.

5/5

Tanzania is a magnificent country, the landscapes and beaches are exceptional, the food is tasty and varied.
we were able to take full advantage in September the temperature was bearable and there were no mosquitoes and the hotels did what was necessary to fight against all kinds of insects.
we booked a 3 days Safari with bookingsafari and it was great, they honored all the program we wanted, and they were great help for us to arrange the plane tickets to go to Zanzibar.
unfortunately in Jambiani we were not lucky in the choice of hotel, precious jewelry was stolen from our room at Cinnamon hotel, and the manager and the police did nothing.
One thing we learned unfortunately in Tanzania is when the tourist is robbed it is his fault !!!!
we continued our trip to Nangwi and we were amazed by the “My Bleu” hotel, its service, the staff, the restaurant, the staff and everything was more than perfect.
we loved the beaches and the locals there it's better than Jambiani.

My dream trip came true
Overall rating
5/5

The Safari was very very beautiful, we saw so many animals, all the big 5! My partner and I did a 5 day 4 night camping tour (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). I recommend doing the tour in this order, we did 2 days in the Serengeti because we went in north to see the buffalo migration: spectacular!! I also recommend camping, in contact with nature, the sky full of stars, the guys are very organised, the tents are spacious and comfortable. The driver was impeccable, a professional, safe, prudent guide and satisfied us in everything. The chef who accompanied us throughout the tour offered us very good dishes that were different every day!! If I could go back I would immediately choose Ngekewa Safaris!!! Thanks for everything!!!

Had a fabulous week in Zanzibar and on safari in mainland Tanzania. Each day threw up new and unique experiences. The service we received everywhere we stayed and travelled was amazing and in all the trip entirely exceeded our expectations. It was wonderful.

Just a few hours from a major city Dar Es Salaam is an oasis where there is an abundance of animals, beautiful lodges and kind people. I arrived in Zanzibar for a beach break but couldnt resist heading to the mainland for a safari and I'm so glad I did!

Fantastic safari experience.
Overall rating
4/5

Tanzania was great! We had organized a safari with Safari Soles before we arrived. Our 10 day safari tour was mind blowing, We did not expect the variety of animals and the accommodations and food were fantastic. Each park had its highlights. We enjoyed the northern park areas more as the southern parks were much busier with tourist traffic. We had fantastic weather and enjoyed being guided by a Massi to some waterfalls and to Natron lake.

Next we flew to Zanzibar for 10 days. The Nungwi beach was beautiful. In Stone Town we enjoyed watching the beach activities, walking through town, the tasty food and the markets. Overall Tanzanians are very welcoming. We never felt unsafe; however the majority of vendors were uncomfortably pushy. Be sure to negotiate prices of tours and items.

The scenery was beautiful and varied throughout Tanzania. We enjoyed a day trip to the foothills of Kilimanjaro where we learned how coffee was grown and the locals had us participate in making a good cup. They also cooked us a delicious lunch.

We really enjoyed our holiday!

“I embarked on a 5-day safari adventure in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro regions, encountering the magnificent Big 5 along the way, with the exception of the elusive rhino. One standout moment was witnessing a leopard feasting on a gazelle—a truly special sight.

The weather was consistently hot, but a light night storm in the Serengeti added a touch of beauty to our journey. Our guides were excellent, even though accommodations were basic. The highlight was the fantastic food.

A surprise came in the form of cold weather in the Ngorongoro mountains, but it didn’t dampen our spirits. I learned so much about animal behavior, habitats, and the fascinating lifestyle of the Hadza people.

Overall, I’d highly recommend this safari experience, though I might opt for a shorter 4-day trip in the future due to the bumpy terrain.”
