"We spent a week traveling with this tour company – three and a half days on safari in the Northern Circuit of Tanzania and three days exploring Zanzibar. They arranged the entire safari and accommodation in Zanzibar on our behalf, custom-made to our itinerary, at a cut-rate price. We couldn’t find a better package deal anywhere, and the services they offered were superb. The safari guide was knowledgeable and skillful, and we had our own private jeep. The accommodation exceeded expectations, and the pre-arranged transfers at the airports proved to be reliable. A brilliant service for a brilliant price. Highly recommended!"

"I would be delighted to offer a short review of our holiday experience. From meeting us at the airport to our departure a fortnight later, Penel, from the tour company, Anton, our safari guide, and Meckson, our Kilimanjaro guide, were kindness itself. Nothing was too much trouble, and everything ran like clockwork, even when we altered our plans! The holiday was well organized, from planning our journey up Mt. Kilimanjaro, through to which safari parks to visit and which hotels to stay at – all within our price range, I may add. The whole holiday was a total delight, with, of course, the friendliness of the Tanzanian people and the beauty of the country all adding to the experience. I can’t recommend this operator highly enough and will certainly return to them when we plan our next holiday (funds permitting). Hope this brief paragraph conveys how much we enjoyed the whole experience."

"What a fantastic deal! I had a chef and a driver and a big 4x4 just for me! The parks visited were teeming with wildlife, and the driver, Fredy, was attentive and very competent. He was amazing and could spot game from phenomenal distances. Camping on the Serengeti was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The facilities in the camping grounds are okay, the toilets suffer

"The operator was thoroughly professional and helpful in every way with our pre-trip planning and the tour experience itself. Mwanaid was very easy to work with and showed a great facility with kids once we were in Tanzania. Huruma and Anton, our drivers and safari guides, were also great with the kids, and we felt very safe in the vehicles with them. Our guides during the mountain climb were patient, jovial, and clearly interested in our welfare. We had a small hitch with one part of our plan, but given that we were a group of 11 (including school-age kids) and that we had to change our schedule a month before the trip, it was impressive that everything else was flawless. Indeed, each time we needed to clarify something, the staff were quick to address the issue, even coming to the hotel to sort things out. We are grateful to the entire staff for their assistance and expertise in coordinating our trip, and we can recommend them to anyone else who would like to arrange a holiday to Tanzania."

"This operator made our trip to Africa simply wonderful. They made all the arrangements, and we always felt like we were in good hands. The mountain guides and porters were diligent and knowledgeable. The cooks prepared delicious food, and the lodge we stayed at was clean, safe, and entertaining. For what we paid, we had an incredible experience. I would recommend them to all my friends."

The safari was fantastic – the best holiday I’ve ever experienced. Our guide was informative and taught Swahili along the way. The food at camps was delicious.

"We decided to organize our journey to Africa via this operator. We did the order via the internet, and because this was our first time traveling to Africa, we were a little curious. We started with some questions to the company, and during the planning, we exchanged a lot of emails. The company was serious, knowledgeable, and offered a good price. They gave us relevant information about everything we asked. We experienced that the company had very good guides who were professional and well-informed. The Kilimanjaro trip and the safari were both well-organized. Everything was planned to our best. We were especially impressed by the food during the Kilimanjaro trip, considering the conditions. None of us became ill. We have no problem recommending this tour operator to others.

"We have just returned from our trip, and we had a fantastic time. Our guide, Apollo, was very good – he took us straight to all the animals. Sometimes we couldn’t see them until he showed us. The lodges and tented lodges were very good, and we were surprised by how luxurious they were. The food was up to a very high standard, including the packed lunches. I would like to thank you for a perfect safari, and we will be using this operator again."

"Our 4-day camping safari was excellent. Traveling to and from the reserve consumed two of the days, but the other two days were a marvel. Sleeping in a tent was balanced out with excellent meals cooked by Hamad. I appreciated the detail and care with which the operator arranged the safari."

"They are a very professional and organized company. I was in communication with Mwanaid for many months prior to the trip, and she was always prompt and helpful in answering my many questions. Our driver-guide was excellent, spoke very good English, and made our trip very pleasant. I would recommend this company to others looking for a great safari."
