An unforgettable experience that’s a must!
The lodges were nice in Arusha (Serena properties) and the Melia in the Serengeti area was a treat; however; Zuri in Zanzibar was a taste of heaven!
While in Arusha / Serengeti, we visited a Maasai village where we spent time learning their customs. That was an amazing experience which would have you questioning your very own values. Arusha is a rural area, so we felt like we were exposed to the authenticity of the town, which undoubtedly was welcomed and highly appreciated.
Zanzibar was two-folded. The first

two nights were spent in Stone Town. The highlights of Stown Town were visiting the Slave Market / Museum and of course shopping. The last three nights were spent on the north end at Zuri. Again, that resort/lodge was a perfect spot to end an adventurous safari trip on the opposite side of the globe. From the decor of the bungalow and the accommodating staff to the beautiful beach and overall ambience, Zuri definitely has the “IT” factor.All in all, Tanzania and Zanzibar are two destinations that should be to the top of everyone’s bucket list. Remember to book through Shadows of Africa and lodge at the Melia in the Serengeti area and Zuri in Zanzibar. You will not regret it!!

Most amazing quantity and diversity of wildlife I have ever seen
All great. We were very happy with Tanzania Roadside - our tour operator. This is second time that I used Safari Booking to solicit three bids (prior one was to Botswana/Zimbabwe) with great results - even better than bid from tour operator suggested by friends in Dar Es Salaam.

Tanzania Serengeti is absolutely amazing!
When I first entered Serengeti NP, I was sure there wouldn’t be much to see. I was pleasantly surprised in less than a few hours! The wildlife was abundant-saw the Big 5 in the central Serengeti over the course of a couple of days in addition to a female cheetah and 2 cubs. Black rhino was even wondering through the central Serengeti on my last morning drive, which apparently is extremely rare. Serengeti Heritage tented tented camp was excellent. Traveled with African Savannah Trekkers and Horace as my guide. The planning experience with Maureen from start to finish was excellent! Horace was a great guide who I would recommend to any single traveler or group.
Tarangire NP and Ngorongoro Creater were both beautiful with abundant animals, even saw a serval in the crater! Only thing I would skip if I was going back would be Lake Manyara. After seeing so much in the Serengeti, the Crater, and Tarangire, Lake Manyara was uneventful.

Great safaris, beautiful people
We spent a wonderful week in Tanzania, in the Arusha region.
We had both the time for a 4 days safari, visiting 4 beautiful parks such as Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Manyara. We spotted a lot of wild animals and birds, and the views were great. We booked with Lion King Adventure and we strongly recommend them for your safari, our guide was very professional and everything was just perfect.
Moreover, we had time to stay at the Africa Amini Life lodges, which support the Africa Amini Alama project, which supports the local Nuru and Masai population in the Arusha region.
We had the occasion to visit the project, with the hospital, the orphanage and the laboratories. We got in touch both with the people working for this great project and get in touch with the local population, which is simply great, always welcoming you.
We can only recommend to visit Tanzania and also support Africa Amini Alama and other similar projects to strengthen the economy and sustainable tourism of the region.

Excellent, we really loved it = ).
We can recommend the safari, it was really amazing how close you get the animals, we saw leopards and lions mating and cheetah with pubbies etc. Easily saw a lot of animals and of course Big Five. We had the budget safari sleeping in tents and the own cook with us, it very nice and all the personnel were very nice. We have visited many other national parks, but still amazed how close you can get the animals in Tanzania. We are already planning the new trip. We also visited Zanzibar, lovely beaches. Next time Kilimanjaro, safari and the beaches again. We just loved it!

Authentic Africa adventure
Well, we stay the 5th time in Africa. Our Tour operator was Grassroots safari. The organizing was perfectly, everybody was ok. We vistiting the south part of Tanzania, Udzungwa, Ruaha, Mikumi and the Selous. We see many life of the african poeple, so , for us it was very interesting. Also the Country short time after the rain season, Africa was green, see the bushes and the trees and the flowers. All accommonidations was very good, the breakfast, lunch and the dinner it was all african style because we have had an own cook with us and we only stay with 2 Persons. Every day it was a surprise to see other things, from the poeple, the landscape and the animals. Every time again.

Beautiful Experience
I loved my trip to Tanzania. I did a 4 day northern circuit safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro) which was incredible. I was able to see an incredible diversity of animals in their natural habitats including a large variety of birds. I also went to the Gombe Stream National Park and was able to observe chimpanzees in their natural environment on the banks of Lake Tanganyika. Accommodations were standard tents for the northern circuit and acceptable lodging at a rest house for the Gombe Stream safari. My guides and chefs were amazing, professional, and experienced.

The parks are worth visiting.
The national parks in Tanzania are original. People I met are mostly friendly and polite. The country may look poor but the environment is generally clean. I took one day in Kilimajaro and five days in the national parks. I am very surprised no littering in these areas. My guide is very nice and knowledgable. It seems he knows many persons in the street and NPs. He was keeping rolling down the window and saying Hello to the persons. That is interesting. I highly recommend the safari tour and this country.
