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

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.

This country was part of my dream for many years and I had very high expectations. Tanzania was an adventure like no other. The scenery was spectacular and the animal’s plentiful. The people were so warm and friendly with a great sense of humour!
Truly magical

We had a 3 day (2 night) safari which took in the Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara.
All logistics including flights & transfers were extremely well thought through, planned, arranged & executed perfectly.
All 3 locations had something different to offer; we were fortunate to see, close up, 4 of the 'big' five, only missing out on Leopards!
The close proximity of the animals was what made this so special.
In addition we observed many different birds, Wart Hogs, Hyena, Zebra, Giraffe, Impala, various breeds of monkey, Hippos, Gazelle & too many more to mention!
At every turn there was something which took your breath away!
The guide, Manfred, was amazing. His knowledge was so impressive, his kindness & humor in addition to his driving ability made us feel included, engaged & safe at all times.

Pearl, was quirky, comfortable & relaxing. The swimming pool being a very welcome way to unwind at the end of a long day in the jeep.
We were served up fabulous, high quality traditional Tanzanian food & drinks & made us feel really at home in every respect, nothing was too much trouble for our hosts.
The breakfasts set us up for the day ahead! Every dietary requirement was catered for without exception.
Overall, everything was as we hoped it would be, in fact it far exceeded our expectations!
We couldn't recommend the experience more highly, thank YOU!

Tanzania is the place. For many years I dreamed about a Safari in Serengeti and finally I had the opportunity to do it. Best experience in my life so far, the expectations were high and it went better than that. I traveled alone and I always felt safe and all the people were kind to me. I did the 5 day Safari at Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It's magical, you should see by yourself, if you respect the nature, nature will give good memories to you.
Special thanks to Barthoo, I booked the safari with him and he answered all my questions and take care of transportation from the airport etc.
Simon was the best guide ever, he is the genuine kind of guy, with a big sense of humour and technically very strong at driving and explain to you all your doubts even when you think you have crazy questions.
About the food? don't bother, just ask for chef Ndula to be your cooker and you will have the best meals in the middle of the Tanzania savana.
Wakanda Safari Tours Forever!

I spent 4 days in Zanzibar which is more of tourist type of destination. The beaches and water were lovely. Stone Town was unique.
I also did a 4 day Safari with World Tours and Safaris Tanzania. They were 5 star from beginning to end. Great guide, great lodging, everything was taken care of expertly. Rickson Richard the manager took care of every detail.
I also did a homestay in Iringa Tanzania in the everyday Tanzania. The hospitality of the people was amazing. Life is very different than the USA. I came away with a new appreciation of our difference and the ease of our lives compared to those in Tanzania.

Vervet Safari Tours helped us see an amazing variety of landscapes, cultures, and wildlife. Matthew knew where to look for animals and could drive and sight them at the same time. We got up close to lions, cheetas, leopards, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, a great variety of antelopes, and more. We visited a Masai village, a cultural festival, and a women's cooperative engaged in sustainable farming and a number of community-sustaining activities.

First of all, people are very welcoming, warm and nice.
Second, the nature is amazing and very various, from the wonderful beaches of Zanzibar to the lush vegetation of Kilimanjaro. Also, wildlife is well preserved and masai culture in very interesting.
Hope we'll return in Tanzania!
