Incredible experience!
We had the most incredible time on this trip and can’t thank the Telly team enough. Our guide Assad was exceptional and looked after us more than we could ever wish for. If you are even thinking about doing a Tanzanian safari then my only advice is to go ahead and book it. We will never forget the memories we created in Tanzania!
William was very responsive and easy to deal with great service!
I organised this trip from Zanzibar and reached out to a few companies. I was very impressed with William as he was very responsive and easy to communicate with via what's app and could call him at any time. We had a change to our outbound flight and William was able to sort it out for us. The safari itself was excellent..we saw so much just on the first day our guide Godson was good and seemed to find where all the wildlife were!

Very good overall.
Good communication and friendly staff. Trip was very good.
5 day fly in safari tour
The team at Telly Africa Safaris have been excellent throughout. William organised and answered all of our questions regarding our 5 day fly in safari, despite me and my wife booking fairly last minute. Before we left the UK we had a safari briefing call with William which provided all the assistance we needed just before departing, which included the companies emergency contact number. We were met by our taxi driver, Mohammad, in Zanzibar who was already waiting for us with a sign at Zanzibar airport. Mohammed was extremely helpful, kind and had a large comfortable A/C car. The next morning he was on time to pick us back up before our flight to the Serengeti. Flights organised by Telly were excellent and again all on time. When we landed in the Serengeti, Aaron our guide, was already waiting for us. We got started after a short welcome and introduction. The safari Jeep was great, fully stocked with unlimited water, coke, two brands of beer, three bottles of wine, two binoculars and was extremely reliable, never breaking down and no squeaky brakes like other tours. If you get Aaron as your guide you get his 22 years of experience. Not only is this important to spot animals (he was the first guide in one of the national parks to spot a leopard, no idea now he saw it!), but also he is clearly respected by all other guides which is important as they share information as you drive around. On top of this he has an incredible mental map of the national parks, so always gets to the big spots quickly when needed… this is also beneficial as he has the experience to go places other guides with less experience would become quickly lost in as the network of roads is complex and extensive. Our trip was packed full of once in a lifetime experiences/ sights, but on reflection, without a great guide, I would imagine you would only experience just a few, if lucky. To summarise we saw countless amounts of animals. We saw the big five and our highlights babies elephants, tree climbing lion, 11 black rhinos (from a distance but dancing viewing with binoculars), 2 leopards, 5 cheaters (including a baby). Aaron is great at spotting, explaining and allowing you time with the animals as you wish…the trip is very much yours to direct… should you wish to move quicker…or stay with a animal longer. Hotels and the daily lunch boxes provided by the hotels were good… we never went hungry! At the end of our trip Aaron dropped us back to the airport with the perfect amount of time for our domestic flight back to Zanzibar. Despite our flight landing 30 minutes early Mohamed was actively tracking the flight and was there again to great us.. stress free. Mohammed then comfortably transferred us across the island safely to our hotel which ended our trip with Telly Africa Safaris. Myself and my wife have traveled extensively around the world, this was one of the best trips to date. For us the experience was 10/10. There are so many companies out there… which made it hard for us to pick… but we are thankful we found this team! Friendly and experienced! I will be recommending Telly Africa Safaris to all my friends and family

Attentive, Responding & Kind
This was our first safari in Tansania and it did not disappoint. Everything from booking to finish went smoothly and Telly Africa Safaris was always available for questions and comments. Our guide was also very kind and relaxed and we felt safe at all times.
Accommodations were great and the food as well, except for the lunch boxes (they definitely need improvement). The price overall was on the edge; also for Swiss standards it's on the pricey side but that's what you pay in the Serengeti.
Would definitely recommend Telly Africa Safaris!
