Amazing Safari Holiday.
From my first contact with Rama everything was so easy to organise all I had to do was choose what I wanted and Rama sorted it, even down to beanbags to rest our large cameras on to get really great shots of the wildlife. We choose the 10 day dry season package and it was full on from the minute we arrived, I loved every minute of it.
Rama met us on the first morning which was great and explained everything to us. He also met us on our way home to see how we got on which I thought was really good.
We flew to the Northern Serengeti and met our driver/guide Amani at the airstrip. We started our first drive straight away and spent the next eight days out on drives while making our way back to Arusha with the best driver/guide, Amani. We saw everything I hoped to and more from a river crossing of the Wildebeest to a Cheetah killing a gazelle, and he also organised a

visit to a Masai village while we were there, which was one of the highlights of the trip. The accommodations were all great, I would highly recommend staying a few nights in the tented camps, it was a fantastic experience.I would highly recommend using Hazina Afrika to organise a trip, Rama will make it very easy, all you have to do is turn up.
We had an amazing time, thanks to Rama for putting the trip together and to Amani who made sure we had such an amazing time.

More than expected!

be provided and amazing. September in Selous was dry and warm. The nights were cool. It’s a bit dusty. Zanzibar was quite the opposite! We stayed at the north of the island near Nungwi Village at La Gemma. Highly recommend this all inclusive resort. Beautiful white sand, sunsets, and the staff are so kind. We did several excursions and enjoyed all of them. My favorites were the Zanzibar cooking class with a local woman, the prison island tour, and a private sunset cruise. Please note that domestic flights in Tanzania are on tiny planes! If you have a fear of this, take your meds!! Tanzania is a beautiful country full of life, culture, kindness, and adventure. It’s a must do for any traveler!

Colourful adventure to be highly recommended.
I was able to organise a trip to see the mountain gorillas in Uganda with Bamboo Ecotours and they gave me good advice to fly into Kigali rather than Uganda.
The trip to see the gorillas was so exciting from the morning briefing to seeing the gorillas in their natural habitats and the issuing of certificates.
For the next leg of our journey we were on our own flying into Mount Kilimanjaro and doing some walking in the foothills before making our way to Arusha for a great safari to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Again I booked this through Safaribookings and the company I choose Vimat Safaris could not have been more helpful. We had a fantastic 4 day trip seeing all the animals we could

wish for.The safari company dropped us back to Mount Kilimanjaro airport and we flew to Zanzibar and enjoyed the last few days of our three week trip in Stone town but enjoyed excursions to the national park there and a lovely day boat trip. I fully recommend a trip to Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania .

Top notch safari, well organised and saw EVERYTHING,
Soul of Tanzania were great from the 1st email. Tailored the trip to suit us and it was a great experience. Everything was as advertised and the whole week ran like clockwork. I’d 100% recommend and we’ll be using them again when we come back.

One of the best experiences ever made!
Tanzania is just a great place, the experience we have made is so unique and special! People are always friendly and welcoming, and so was our guide and all the staff at the different camps and lodges. We enjoyed every single minute of our trip. The scenery is simply breathtaking and wildlife is exciting.

More than I ever imagined!
I had wanted to go to Africa for over 50 years... it was worth the wait! We chose Tanzania for several reasons but mostly because of safety and political stability. The fact that it had some of THE best National Parks didn't hurt either! We chose Savannah Explorers after researching nearly 100 companies and were totally satisfied with the service Roberto provided! He answered ALL my questions, made changes to the itinerary and was very efficient. The 12 day safari went off without a hitch. Our guide, George, a private contractor with SE was fabulous. Knowledgeable, fluent in English, funny, great driver and had eagle eyes! We chose September for the weather - 85 days, 65 nights - didn't miss AC at all - just perfect. We went to Arusha NP, Taragire NP, Lake Manyara and central and northern Serengeti NP. We saw so many animals and caught some amazing behaviors. Every game drive held something magical! Tanzania landscapes are varied, changing and just plain gorgeous! A true trip of a lifetime!

Great trip but 6 days was too long. Before booking, insure you have a good guide/driver
I loved the safari but did not realize how much time would be spent sitting in a jeep. I understand being on a safari means driving long distances to get to the wildlife. Both Tanzania and Kenya had amazing wildlife. I had a mix of drivers - some very good, some not so good. When the drivers spoke English and were motivated to teach, educate, it was a joy. Unfortunately, a couple drivers did not communicate well at all and this was frustrating. I also recommend shopping around for prices - the safari itself is the same for everyone (big difference is driver). In my group, some of us spent significantly more than others for the same thing.

We found everything we were looking for. With a good guide, I think it is hard to get a better safari experience. It feels like you are in the documentaries.

AWESOME
Our guide was wonderful, very skillful driver, extremely knowledgeable about wildlife, the area, Maasai, everything. It was the trip of a lifetime. Staying in the tent village was quite a wonderful experience and we had a Maasai warrior to walk us to our tent after dinner both nights. We saw lions hunting, zebras marching in single file, two wildebeasts fighting, an elephant scratching behind his ears, more wonders than I can recount. We saw giraffes, baboons, hippos, crocs, you-name-it. Wonderful trip, you will love it. There were beautiful serene lodges, too. The weather was wonderful about a high of 84. The food was quite good and not too strange :)
