We had a very good safari with Tanzania Exclusive. We booked it two months in advance and had some changes in the standard planning. Everything seemed possible. The organization went smooth and they were keen on the small details of the trip. During the trip they suddenly changed a accommodation, which was also fine, but they forgot to tell us. The reason: it was fully booked. We found that strange since we booked this trip way in advance. Nevertheless we had a good time and saw all the beauties of Northern Tanzania. Our driver, Nickson, was absolutely fantastic! Always on time, cleaning the car in between, making sure we could get as close to the animals as possible. Besides that he had a lot of knowledge about all the animals and was passionated about his job. Good driving and English speaking too. We can recommend this organization for your Safari in Tanzania and we are sure you will have a good one!

A terrific combination of experiencing very remote as well as very often visited places of Tanzania

Even the leopard was there! Lots of elephants and lions very close - lions also resting in the trees, wildebeests giving birth just in front of us, a large group of rhinos - at distance, large groups of zebras, wildebeests and gazelles "on the run"/migrating, lots of hippos, looking like stones in a mud hole - and suddenly emerging from the mud with a big yawn ….. We have seen and met much more wildlife and birds than expexcted - Mountain areas, waterfalls, wonderful sceneries as well in the mountains as on the grassland. The weather much better than expected, although we also tried heavy rain, lightning and thunder (at night!)! Very different national parks - good choices!
And almost all accommodations far beyond expectation - only in two of 11-12 places we stayed in, we had a few - minor - comments, all basic things was very well functionin! The food was usually very fine - or at least reasonable, but we often had a long service time!! Transportation: A superb driver,
Read more but the poor man had a LOT of work with the maintenance/repair of the rather old and "tired" safari car, safety equipment not really existing? OK.! He did a really good job and was very helpful and serviceminded! We had far more than "value for money"!! THANKS!

7 unforgetable safari days perfectly planned by Tourlane and implemented by Leopard Tours.

We want to thank our german speaking guide Issa Andrews who showed us the land and the people and never got tired of our questions. He always answered them for us with such expercise.

His knowlegde of german was very good and his sense for the wildlife helped us for more and unforgetable sights.

As a foreseeing driver and with his calmness he always gave us a feeling of security. With that we enjoyed our safari without boundaries.

Leopard Tours is a competent company that will also be in future our first choice.

I had been on a safari the the Massai Mara in Kenya before, but this time I took my entire family. Wife, 2 kids (9 and 10) and my aging parents. Tanzania did not let us down. We did the northern loop (Tarangire, Manyara, Crater, Serengeti) and saw so much wildlife that we still think about it a year later. The landscapes are beautiful and the animals are breathtaking.

Some of the spots like the crater and around central serengeti are busy. Your guide makes your trip hands down. If you have an guide that just cares about time and not his clients, you will have a less than great stay. Our guide went above and beyond to cater to our every need and what we wanted to get out of each day. go to the busy areas first and then branch out to see what Tanzania has to offer. I recommend not staying in the large "tourist processing centers" but the tented camps.....What an adventure.

I cannot wait to go back.

Great family vacation enjoying 10 days in Tanzania. Met at the airport by the owner of the safari tour group Fresh Mood Treks to help settle us in for a short stay for Christmas in Dar es Salaam . Then off for for a 5 day safari to Selous and Mikumi reserves. Our Fresh Mood Treks driver/guide, Ezikel was awesome- on time for every aspect of the trip, safe on the roads and he always took the extra time to make sure we were settled in at the camp where we stayed at the end of the day. Both game parks were excellent- Selous with heavier bush cover where we were up close to plenty of giraffe , elephant, baboon, impala and the on Rufiji River ride able to enjoy Hippos and Crocs. Mikumi was more open and filled w/ giraffe, elephants, zebra, baboon, warthog, hyena, eland, hippo, a great family of lions only a few feet from the road. - and some how Ezikel our guide was able to find us a leopard in a tree from a few hundred yards away! Fresh Mood Trek overall a great choice .
We spent
Read more the last few days on Zanzibar at the Maru Maru hotel- if you want to stay in town this is the place to stay! Great in town location- comfortable, great breakfast on rooftop every morning and great service.

Our guide (Mussa from Roam Serengeti Safaris) was outstanding and knew the animals and land exceptionally well. We saw everything we went to see and more. We couldn't have been happier with the friendliness of the local people everywhere we went. Everything was inexpensive (even though there is the occasional overcharge for foreigners if you're unprepared) and the food was easily some of the best I've ever had anywhere in the world. I am only a week removed from being in Tanzania and my heart aches to go back ASAP, above some pretty amazing other places I've been (Costa Rica, Brazil, Switzerland). I could not have asked for more in terms of adventure and genuine hospitality. Can't wait to return.

Tanzania is absolutely beautiful. We saw many, many animals while on safari. We booked our trip through African Paradise Safaris. Everything was coordinated perfectly through them. Our guide, Frank was amazing. He taught us so much about the animals, the people of Tanzania, and the country itself. We highly recommend APS. Be sure to request Frank as your guide.

We booked a 5 day safari in Ruaha National Park with Raja tours. From beginning to end they were responsive and helpful. Nico our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We stayed at Hill Top lodge, which was breathtaking and the hospitality was amazing. I would definitely recommend.
