We did a 7-day safari with African Big Cats Safaris. It was truly a very impactful time in Tanzania. An amazing place full of natural wonders and impactful experiences. We totally loved it all, it’s far too much to try to describe here, just something you have to experience. Endene was a great guide throughout!

We were a group of two families and made a round trip in Tanzania: Start at Arusha - Tarangire National Park - Serengeti (central and west) - Ngorongoro Crater - end at Arusha (flight to Zanzibar).
It was an amazing trip! We have been in South Africa, Namibia, Kenia, Eswatini and Lesotho several times before. But Tanzania and especially the Serengeti was the best of all! We saw a lot of lions, cheetahs and a leopard even with their babies - so cute! Our lodges were very nice and good located except our lodge for visiting the Ngorongoro crater. It was outside the crater, what I could not recommend. It was not fare away but it took us hours to go there because of the traffic and the road conditions. We felt always safe. Our tour operator was Roadside Tanzania. Our guide had good connections to other guides so that we always were informed very well about any sightings in the parks!
We finished our trip with a relaxing week in Jambiani at Zanzibar in a small boutique hotel. Overall it was a fantastic journey and we would love to come back!

We booked a 5-day Safari Trip with African pangolin safaris. The Trip included 2 days Mikumi NP and 3 days Nyerere NP. It was only the 3 of us with our guide/driver and that was such a good choice. We were very flexible regarding (lunch) breaks while the game drive and the drive from one park to another. The weather was perfect for a safari trip, it was warm like 22-25 °C and sometimes sunny, sometimes cloudy, so very nice to be outside the whole day.
While Mikumi was a perfect start to see a lot of different animals (we were lucky and also saw lions on our first day there) Nyerere was a nice add on to that. In Nyerere there was more variety in the landscape, so more like bush and forests, but also steppes and meadows. Some lakes for crocodiles and hippos were there also. It was a guarantee to see different animals, but less than before because of the number of trees and bushes. If you could see anything it was so close, but thats an amazing feeling.
It was our first safari

Trip, but certainly not the last. We would recommend going there in August. And not to worry about the moskito situation, we bought some moskito repellent in Tanzania for about 2000 Schilling and it lasts way more than 10 days. Furthermore there weren`t that much moskitos and all rooms were sprayed in the evening by the hotel staff.
We completed our holidays by flying to Zanzibar for another 9 days and liked the island as much as the safari.
So in conclusion Tanzania was a great destination for an unforgettable holiday trip.

We had a great time with a very experienced driver. Made sure we got to see the action wherever it was. Kind and calm guide, with a sense of humor. The safari package we got was absolutely to our expectations. We went for a more affordrable package, and boy did we get value for money. 3 days i think is more than enough for a safari.

This is my second time I been to Africa in year of 2025, but this time I go with my mom, dad and students of my mother's psychology studio. Overall the trip was amazing, the children were love the view in the Tanzania. Like Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. They saw most of the animals of the Africa and the views of the national parks. At the meantime, children were also like the Zanzibar as well. Not only the tour of the Stone City, but also they enjoy the beach and snorkelling as we saw the beautiful view under the sea and we got the star fishes as well. The drivers in safaris are relatively due diligence. They take us to feel the magnificent view and introduce the different types animals on the Great Savannahs of Eastern Africa. Also the tour guide Kennedy at Zanzibar helped us to change hotel as well, and bring us to the different places on Zanzibar island.
Finally, I appreciate Zanzi Trekking your sincere service and I wish I can visit more views in Tanzania in the future. It was great pleasure to meet you.

We did a 4 day safari that was planned last minute. Safari.com did a great job of organizing the trip. We flew into Kilimanjaro and immediately hopped in the vehicle and headed to Tarangire. We spent the night in Karatu and the next morning drove through Ngororo to get to Serengeti. It was a very long drive, but we really wanted to get to Serengeti and only had a few days. We saw an awesome pride of 16 lions hanging out on a rock, which was super cool. The third day we drove around central Serengeti and then back near the crater for an early morning decent into the crater. All 3 parks were pretty interesting. Our favorite was Serengeti - which has vast open plains. We could not have had a better tour guide, Stanley. He was very knowledgeable and did everything he could to ensure that we had a great trip. I highly recommend him!
The people in Tanzania are among the kindest, most friendly people on the planet. I love spending time in Tanzania!

We weren’t sure which country in Africa to visit for our first safari. Tanzania has a large variety of national parks and conservation areas and we saw an incredible amount of animals. The country is safe and stable and the people are welcoming and friendly.

I and my family had a great safari experience in Tanzania this summer! We drove for more than 1,000 Km from Kilimanjaro to North Serengeti visiting Tarangire Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Park and Serengeti. Our driver Festo was a great guide across the whole journey. We encountered lots of wildlife, enjoyed every moment if the trip even if the roads at times were not that comfortable. We changed accommodation almost every night, the lodges were very nice (maybe only one was a bit basic) and enjoyed the food and the local beer. We were probably not expecting the cold night in Ngorongoro with the temperature dropping to 8 degrees! Overall I magnificent experience. Special thanks to African Big Cats Safaris for the excellent organization of our journey
