Great Safari
5/5

We had a 6 day tour with our guide Joseph Temba.

We were really lucky to see a lot of animals in wild. Even spotted the BIG 5!
Joseph gave his best to get us in the front and best place to make the best photos!

The lodges were really clean, beautiful, friendly people and good food! Specially the tented lodge in the middle of Serengeti absolutely a highlight.
We really enjoyed it!

All in all we had a unforgetable Safari!

Kilimanjaro Climb
5/5

We completed the most incredible Kilimanjaro climb with Migration Venture Africa in March and cannot thank Amos enough for providing us with such a fantastic trip. Every detail was planned to perfection and the whole trip from start to finish ran like clockwork. Our incredible guides Joseph and Epa were such great company and kept is safe throughout the climb and went above and beyond to make sure we had the most amazing trip and that we were successful in reaching the summit. I have been recommending Migration Venture Africa to everyone I know - do not hesitate in booking, as you will be guaranteed a fantastic trip!

Truly unforgettable experience
5/5

Our trip was amazing from start to finish, an utterly unforgettable experience! We were very well looked after, everything is arranged for you. The accommodation was all very comfortable, the first night was in a cute little cabin, and the second night is an amazing glamping experience in the middle of the Serengeti, it had a flush toilet and a hot shower! The last night was a bit more basic but still had eveything you needed (although a bathroom door would have been nice haha). The staff at all of the accomodations were so friendly and attentive aswell. The food was so good, the whole way, we are vegetarian and we did not go hungry! And lastly, our driver and guide, Noely, was just the best! He was experienced and knowledgeable and we got to see so many animals and so close up! He was super friendly, and accommodated any requests we had, and changed the schedule as we needed. He really topped the experience off, we had the most incredible time! I would highly recommend this experience to all! Super cool, Hakuna Matata :)

Amazing! So friendly, welcoming and knowledgable. Was very accomodating to anything we required
5/5

Incredible holiday! Noely our guide was fantastic. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing. We saw amazing animals and really close up. Noely knew all the best spots to go to - we saw the Big 5 amongst others.
All the accomodation was great, the first place was this great little cabin - the food and hospitality was amazing.
Second stop was a glamping experience in the middle of the Serengeti - incredible!! Also fantastic food, comfortable bed and hot showers!
Our last stop was a bit more basic but equally hospitable and really good food.
Would highly recommend this tour and company. Both me and my travel buddy are vegetarian and they were very accomodating to everything including changes to the schedule which suit us better. 100% want to come back. Thank you Noely! Super cool! Hakuna Matatā

Migration Venture was incredibly welcoming, friendly, well-organized, and tailored to our needs.
5/5

I recently had an extraordinary experience with Migration Venture & Amos, and I can't recommend them enough for an unforgettable safari adventure!

From the warm welcome and detailed briefings to the top-notch accommodations, everything was exceptional. Our guides, Denis & Noel, were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, ensuring we didn't miss any wildlife or the great migration. Meals were a highlight, with delicious local cuisine and veggie options.

Migration Venture provided a seamless, well-planned trip that exceeded all expectations. For an unforgettable safari, Migration Venture is the top choice!

Thank you, Migration Venture, for an amazing adventure!

You are in good hands with Migration Venture Africa!
5/5

I have no other experiences with tourism in Africa in general, nor Tanzania in particular but our travels, guided by Migration Venture Africa, was an unquestioned success. Amos, the manager/owner and his staff of drivers/guides provided a fabulous, tailer-made itinerary for our group. We had unusual objectives including a home stay in the southern highlands around Iringa as well as more conventional lodge and safaris activities in the northern highlands out of Arusha. The logistics and support for these two distinct components of our group's travels were accommodated by flexible itineraries and nimble reaction to unexpected complications. We got to know our main contacts with Migration, our guides Noeli and Denis in the north, very well and I appreciated their high spirits and expertise during both cultural and more typical safaris components of our journey. Both of these talented young men brought a charming and professional atmosphere along with skillful expertise to our vigorous daily activities. All of the Migration Venture guides who helped us with our journey were committed to the enhancement of our experiences while maintaining a constant awareness of potential hazards. Half of our group will not forget the assault by a rouge elephant and the intrepid skill of our guide in avoiding what could have been a very bad situation! Our guides were all a big part of my cherished memories of this wonderful adventure.

The safari was mega nice, the tour operator I would not recommend
3/5

We agreed at the time of booking that we would receive a German-speaking guide. As I thought something might go wrong in advance, I reminded them the day before the safari that we wanted a German-speaking guide (as agreed). Unfortunately, an English-speaking guide arrived the next day. When I said that a German-speaking guide had been agreed and I wrote a message again the day before, they tried to organize a German-speaking guide at short notice. However, we waited in the car for 45 minutes. Then we drove towards the parks and picked up the German-speaking guide on the way. We also waited there for almost another hour. We also had a real jalopy. The driver drove the whole time at around 30-40km/h (in and out of town) and we were overtaken by all the cars, even trucks, which of course meant we lost a lot of time on the long drive to the parks and on the intermediate journeys. Then the car also went out several times and we had to wait about 30-45 minutes twice until it started again. The guides (both the English-speaking and the German-speaking ones) didn't really try to tell us anything about the parks, but talked to each other in Suaeli the whole time, which was quite annoying.
When we asked something, we got an answer, but we would have liked to have been told something from time to time. Even at dinner in the evening, while other guides were talking to their guests, our guides preferred to be on their cell phones.
The cars are equipped with walkie-talkies so that all the guides (including those from other providers) can inform each other if an animal is spotted. Our guide's walkie-talkie was broken, so we didn't hear anything. Other guides also all had binoculars with them, but our guide's were broken, he said. Then at the end they weren't happy with the tip as it was split between two people (it's not our fault that we ended up with two guides), then she wanted more, then we got some more (although we weren't happy) and then they didn't even thank us for the tip.
The safari and the parks (Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Tarangire) are definitely worth seeing and an experience and we also saw a lot (but so did others from other tour operator too). However, there are a lot of providers, which is why I would recommend another provider (Leo, Tanzanica Specialist, etc.).

Perfect organization
5/5

Our 5-day safari in Tanzania was an unforgettable experience! We started in Tarangire National Park, where the majestic baobab trees and numerous giraffes impressed us.

Then we spent three days in different parts of the Serengeti. Thanks to our professional and dedicated guide Noely, we saw the "Big 5" and the "Ugly 5" and hat some special moments with a cheetah hunting, or a cheetah with her babies. Also a highlight was to see the great migration with millions of wildbeests, zebras, and so on..

The lodges all were very comfortable and offered great service! Thanks for that.

Our last day in the Ngorongoro Crater was a highlight, with breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife. The entire organization was excellent. We highly recommend this safari!

Dedicated guides and exquisite accommodations
5/5

Migration Venture put together a custom trip for us with all of our special requests. We asked for side trips to an orphanage and coffee plantation, and rides to and from various airports. Our trip had a contingent in the south with a Ruaha safari, and a flight to the north to visit the northern parks of Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorongora. Migration Ventures accommodated everything with really great guides in both places. The accommodations were fabulous. We stayed in some rustic but really classy lodges, again great food and help. The guides communicated well always kept us informed on departures and logistics. They did a great job herding our group of 12. And finally I was impressed with their dedication to finding the animals in the parks. We were totally satisfied.

SAFARI? HABARI!
4/5

Just returned from an exciting private Safari with Migration Venture.
Denis is a dynamic young tour guide with an excellent sight able to spot animals from miles...4 on 5 of the bigs!!!
Also from Lake Natron to Olduvai Gorge we could rely on the support of other local guides very knowledgeable regarding flora and fauna copiously present all around us.
Tented accommodations are an absolute must if you truly want to experience the authentic safari, especially in the Serengeti, and game drives quite exciting!

Thank you Migration Venture, I had an incredible birthday celebration!
