It’s hard to put down in words how unique our safari was when me and my husband got married by masaai, I saw a lion 3 meters away, we saw a leopard sleeping on a baobab tree and we’ve had the best guide possible (Kisali), providing us with the best informations, trivias and help. Everything went just perfect, it’s only bad that it ends. Serengeti smile made our honeymoon transcendental.

Our Safari covered Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. We had 5 days which included travelling to and from the airport. Our trip was phenomenal. We saw everything except Rhino’s. So many lions, lucky enough to see Leopards and Cheetahs and everything else in between. We had specifically wanted to see Ngorongoro crater as we thought we’d see loads of wildlife in there and that was the most disappointing for us. The crater is amazing but we saw so much more in the Serengeti.
Our guide Semle was fabulous. He spotted so much that we would not have seen otherwise and made such a great effort to find animals for us. Could not recommend him more.

Loved it. Amazing experiences, especially the Ngorongoro crater and Paje beach in Zanzibar. Loved the people and the food.

Highly recommended - we really enjoyed our 3-day Safari tour (Tarangire, Ngororo, Lake Manyara). Complete organization including some special adaptations to our needs went pretty smooth.
The communication with Daniel was fast & always helpful, even for our travel before and after the Safari he helped us to arrange us transportations for a very competitive price. In addition we did aswell the Mataruni waterfall tour from Moshi, for better experience and price arranged with TukTuk Transportation which was awesome aswell. The Safaris were an excellent wildlife viewing experience, the accomodation was wonderfull and our guide was doing a really great job.

Our Guide (Walter) was wonderful. The wildlife was amazing as were the Masii People. Spend more than 1 night at each Park. Took over 1600 photos and about 1500 were amazing. Take the time and talk with the locals, learn their culture...HINT, Most speak English.

Definitely a different vibe between northern and Southern tanzania. Very happy with Luitours safety and accommodation. Listening to the lions at night outside Osero camp and having zebras surround our tent is an experience I'll never forget. Hosts at Osero went above and beyond to make a special experience unfortunately we were to jetlag to fully enjoy it. I don't recommend starting your safari on your first day. Not a birder but enjoyed all the birds. Found people in the north very friendly. Zanzibar beaches were beautiful but ones north of dar es salaam were full of garbage. Traffic was crazy. Would like to see it at the beginning of dry season not the end.

We did the 3 day safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club going to Tarangire and Ngorongoro and staying at the Kitela Lodge. The whole experience was fantastic. Rajab was really helpful throughout the booking process and answered our many questions promptly and well.
Tarangire was brilliant but Ngorongoro is something else - an incredible place. Our guide was Emmanuel and he led us through the safari brilliantly, and with his help we did manage to see the big 5! He was really friendly and helpful throughout the trip and even organised a taxi for us for when we landed in Zanzibar for the second part if our holiday, which was going above and beyond.
The Kitela Lodge was a magnificent place to stay. Our own beautiful thatched cottage, absolute luxury after a day in the heat, and brilliant food.
Tanzania and its people has captured our hearts!

Tanzania checks all the boxes if you desire an authentic cultural and safari experience. The Original Maasai Lodge north-east of Arusha provides a luxury accommodation and excellent cuisine along with in depth Maasai cultural experiences. Arusha National Park has beautiful vegetation and animals viewing in a place with fewer visitors. The Maturuni Waterfalls and nearby coffee making excursion is an enjoyable day trip with a stop at the Chemka Hot Springs delivers a refreshing dip in the not so hot but crystal clear lovely water. The highlight of the 11 day time spent in northern Tanzania is a visit to Serengeti National Park. Although the trek to the endless plains is dusty and bumpy in the sturdy safari vehicle, the reward is in the amazing wildlife and scenery. The number of animals is mind boggling, with close encounters with lions, elephants, hippos and cheetah. Our safari tour operator Tanzania Porcupine Expedition took extreme care with us to have the best possible experience.

The communication and attention to detail was incredible. Our four day safari also included Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater along with the epic time in Serengeti National Park. The mid September trip featured warm mostly sunny days and virtually no precipitation. All in all, Tanzania is a special place and visit.
