Real beauty of Nature
Overall rating
5/5

First of all would like to thank to the Bujo Tours team for organizing our amazing 2 days trip to Tarangire and Ngorongoro.
All details have been solved through email communication with very quick responces and also reasonable suggestions as me and my husband were travelling with our 2 small kids and two elderly couples.
We were lucky to get a very good and sympathetic guide Luis - thank you and sending many greetings from all of our family! Luis was a very good choice for us as having children himslef, he handled well all situations. Also he is a very good driver, we felt very safe with him.
First night accomodation in Rich hotel Arusha was nice and comfy, accomodation for our second night in Migombani Camp was very nice, can recommend to everyone, shame we had so short time to enjoy the facilities. Very nice breakfast btw!!
We only had to handle some mistake in booking as we were ordering 3 units, but there was only 1 tent and 1 lodge ready for us (and the camp was fully booked) :-(
The first lunch box from Arusha from some local canteen was just ok (fried and greasy), second one from Migombani was a bit better. Anyway we donĀ“t mind that as we were there for experience, not food :-)

Well both Tarangire and Ngorongoro were amazing trips, have seen so many animals (although not all we could have), beautiful nature, sunshine and also some rain. Animals walking just by our car, have had time enough to enjoy the miracle of being so close. Just love it! And imagine the thrill and emotions of our kids :-)

An incredible experience
Overall rating
5/5

From the very beginning we had an amazing time. The wildlife was just fantastic. Our family group of Dad and 2 kids (10 + 11 ) loved every moment. Our guide Cheddy was so knowledgeable and had a pair of eyes that would make a hawk proud. Our food and accommodation were perfect. The overall welcome from the people of Tanzania was so generous and warm. Asante sana. We felt safe at all times. Bryson was excellent in all my dealings with him. Replies to queries were almost instantaneous. Keep up the good work.

nice despite our guide
Overall rating
4/5


The trip was beautiful because nature is wonderful and people are very kind. Our tour was badly organized and our guide was bad. He knew nothing of his country. We got stuck in a river with the car, we got wet and our suitcases ended up in the water and we lost a camera. Nobody apologized. The guide always laughed.
At the end of the tour he did not make us the last excursions, already paid, because he had spent all our money.

I think we found the only incompetent and rude guide in all of Tanzania.

Wonderful experience in Mikumi!
Overall rating
5/5

My friend and I booked 2 day safari in Mikumi with Tanzania Mwangaza Safaris & Tours. We were very satisfied with the organizator's communication and willingness to help with whatever, our driver, out guide and how trip was organized in general. We started our trip in Dar Es Saalam where our driver picked us up at 3 AM to go to Mikumi. We went in the middle of the night so that we don't loose much time on traveling to the park, which was a great idea. Our driver was the best (i think his name was Osman), very kind, caring, talkative and helpful, we had a great time driving with him. Car was comfortable and filled with water and food for our journey.

Our safari experience was also amazing. We saw a lot of wildlife - zebras, impalas, giraffes, shackles, elephants and even lioness with her cubs. Our driver was very kind and helpful and observant toward the animals and didn't want to do anything to disturb them (like approaching lions very close) and we were very satisfied with his approach that way.

Our vehicle could be a little better, but we still managed to see a lot of this. Out accommodation was really nice and charming, our only critique goes to the food in restaurant which wasn't very good, especially for vegetarians.

But other than that, our safari was almost perfect and I would wholeheartedly recommend Tanzania Mwangaza Safaris & Tours to everyone.

5/5

EarthLife tours, Deo and Agrey were amazing. Our safari was nothing our wildest dreams could have ever imagined. To experience first hand the symbiotic relationship of the circle of life was beyond our wildest dreams. Our guide was so knowledgeable, kind and patient. We have memories for a life time and none of our world travels compare to our experience in Tanzania. We are looking forward to returning soon! Thank you! We hope the life thatā€™s there remains preserved and out of human greed...

Our safari was even more than we expected.
Overall rating
4/5

Our 6 day safari in January was with Kiliholidays. We were picked up at the airport with no problems by our guide Thomas. We were transferred to our pre safari hotel in Arusha, the Nego Bugg Hotel. Nego Bugg is a wonderful hotel with very nice rooms. However, the staff there are not very good about making you comfortable and welcome. We had no hot water and after trying to get help several times, someone finally came by to turn on the hot water switch which was located outside our room. Not one staff member mentioned this to us. As the evening moved along, we decided to have dinner at the restaurant but we had no idea where it was located because nobody showed us. After asking for help, we were shown to the restaurant in another building. Dinner was a mess, we ordered several times and our waitress came back to tell us it was not available. This happened three times. Finally we just told her to tell us what was available. She left to find out. When she returned, we were able to order with success. With no window screens, a plague of small flies forced us back to our room where we said we would take room service. TWO hours later, after many ā€œonly 5 more minutes ā€œ, food arrived cold and not looking like the restaurant pictures at all and no drinks that were ordered. It was hot in the room and air conditioning was needed and thankfully our room had a unit. After 45 minutes of fiddling with the remote, several calls to the front desk, new batteries in the remote, still no air conditioning. Another round of calls for help and finally a maintenance man came to look at our unit. He quickly turned on the wall switch near the bathroom and, tadaaaa, we had cooler air. Could nobody have shown us this earlier? We had many frustrations that day/night but all could have been resolved if we had been informed of the workings of our room in the beginning. Arrrrgh. The safari starts tomorrow and there is no way it could get worse . As a matter of fact, it was fantastic. Our first day was the Tarangire National Park. Next two days were in The Serengeti and our final drive was in the Ngorongoro Crater. Witnessing all the animals in these places was awe inspiring and an experience we will never forget. Thomas did his best to get us great views and many times closer to the animals than we ever expected. We could count the flies on the lioness ā€˜s nose we were so close. The safari lodge and tented camp arranged by Kiliholidays were both excellent and very accommodating. The tented camp was an exciting African experience and highly recommended. The food was ample and very tasty. Overall, despite our start, our adventure on this safari was unique and memorable. We would recommend you make this adventure a reality and we do not hesitate to recommend Kiliholidays. Thanks also to Safaribookings for their help.

A great wildlife experience. We saw more animals than I expected
Overall rating
4/5

The company is a great low-budget option. The food was amazing, the car was good and we felt safe. They guide was friendly, but didn't tell us much about the animals and the environment. That is the only reason I give 4 stars and not five. I can really recommend this trip.

Best regards
