Incredible opportunity to view African animals up close.
I chose a safari with Wildlands Safaris, which I selected after viewing the options available through Safari Bookings. Our safari was excellent! I couldn't believe how close we got to those amazing wild animals. The guide did everything he could to make sure we saw everything we possibly could. We couldn't have asked for better accommodation, food and service along the way. I would highly recommend this company.

I love zebras
the safari is preserved in very good shape. everybody respect the nature. weather was good during our visit. everything is good, except for the taxi drivers, who always deceive travelers for extra money, which is a big turn off.

7-day tanzania wildlife safari
My trip started from Tarangire National Park, and ended at Serengeti National Park. Everything went well until the day before my trip ended. We had a flat tire and the our truck was not equipped with proper tools to change a spare tire. So we got help from other guides. The spare tire was not in a good shape. So the next day (last day of our trip) we had another flat ; which turned out to be the spare tire. Now we don't have any spare tire . So I felt unsafe to continue on our game drive for the rest of the day. Not only that, while entering the Serengeti, the fuel tank strap broke thus hanging on one strap all the way. That slowed us down too.
I believe for any company the vehicles should be double checked for basic things such as proper inflation in tires, spare tires in good condition, overall health of the engine , check all the fluids, etc. And last but not the least , tools to change spare tires that are in working order.

OurNorthern Tanzania Luxury Lodge Safari booked by Beatus at Donak Safaris was excellent
We have just returned from an amazing safari with Donak Safaris starting with our first night in Arusha, 1 night in Tarangire, 1 night in Lake Manyara, 2 nights in Serengeti and 1 night Ngorongoro. Our guide Yusuph was excellent very helpful and knowledgeable with a knack of finding the best places to view the Big 5 and we saw them all. We received a welcome note from Yusuph a couple of days before we traveled which was a nice personal touch. Every destination had its high lights and we wouldn't have changed a thing, except not finding the Tree Climbing Lions in Lake Manyara, but they are wild animals and we know they don't 'appear to order' !. I had always wanted to see the sunrise over the Serengeti, I saw it twice and I wasn't disappointed. The biggest surprise was Ngorongoro we entered the crater as the sun began to rise, it was a magical experience and we saw many more animals than we expected including hippos walking from one waterhole to another a

sight you do not see very often. We traveled with our 27 year old daughter and have all been on safaris in other countries before but our experience with Donak did not disappoint, the planning was excellent and not a minute of our holiday was wasted.We were all impressed with the excellent toilet facilities provided at the picnic areas in all the parks we visited.
Staff at all the lodges we stayed in were very welcoming and helpful.

Awesomeness
We went to Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro on a 4-day safari. It’s not everyday you get to see two lions eating wildebeest for breakfast and sleeping on a tent next to grazing cattle and zebras. It’s definitely an amazing experience that I will never forget.

Udzungwa, Ruaha and Mikumi Safari
We booked a 6-Day-Budget-Camping-Safari with Grassroots and had a wonderful time in Tanzania. Compared to Namibia where we have been the year before Tanzania appears to have a lot more wildlife. We wanted to go to the south and stay away from the more tourist flooded and expensive parks in the north - which turned out to be a good idea. In Tanzania all the parks and the camps in the parks are not fenced and you get a much closer feel of being part of nature. With a knowledgable and safe guide/driver we never had any problems and lots of really beautiful and close wildlife encounters.
On the downside - the prices were reasonable but it was a lot of driving. While you get to see a lot of the real Tanzania outside the tourist areas - it was also quite exhausting to spend so much time in the car driving through half of the country from Daressalam and from park to park.
less touristic than kenya but very interested
very beautiful and interested very good safari.
