Wonderful and Perfect !
Their staff are fantastic: Paul prepared our trip with great attention to every detail, Bran (guide in Kenya) and Justin (guide in Tanzania) were simply fantastic! They were with us the entire time on the safaris and explained super interesting, fun aspects and always attentive to all our needs!!

Amazing operator on Tanzania side, do not use them for the subcontractor on Kenya side
Fantastic experience in Tanzania - I would give 1 star for the subcontractor they used in Kenya.
Tanzania side, Othman is the best tour guide for the Serengeti. He is very experienced, knows everything about the animals and where to find them. Would always check in with us on what we want to do or if we had any questions. Would recommend when we move on before the convoy of other 4WDs arrived. If you get Othman as your guide, you are in for a fantastic tour.
Kenya side, I can't even remember the guides name but he was terrible. Didnt tell us what we were doing even when asked, wouldnt listen to us when we would ask to spend more (or less) time looking at something. 4WD was not in good condition. All the operators need to sub contract if you are visiting both Kenya and Tanzania. I would highly recommend, if you want to do both, to engage two separate tour companies, one for Tanzania and one for Kenya. Then you can probably get them to talk to each other to arrange the hand off. There is no way for them to easily quality control when they subcontract.
On reflection from our tour, I guess the thought we had is do we need to do both? The boarder crossing day from Masai Mara to Serengeti is a pretty grueling full day of driving on terrible, bumpy, dusty roads. So you lose a day to travel when you can see all the same animals in both national parks. If we were to do it again we would either pay the money to fly from Masai Mara to Serengeti, or we would only do one of them.

Super perfect honeymoon for us
A Perfect Serengeti Safari with Roadside Expedition
I recently returned from a 5-night, 6-day Serengeti safari with Roadside Expedition, and it exceeded all my expectations. I had high hopes going in, but the experience was truly beyond what I imagined.
Our guide, Gadiel, was the highlight of the trip. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but his kindness and attention to detail made us feel comfortable every step of the way. Thanks to Gadiel’s careful planning and guidance, we were able to witness breathtaking landscapes and wildlife up close every single day. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will cherish forever.
Roadside Expedition impressed me with their top-notch accommodations, meals, and transportation arrangements. Their exceptional service from start to finish left me completely satisfied. If you’re considering a safari, I wholeheartedly recommend Roadside Expedition and Gadiel as your guide!
Thank you, Roadside Expedition team and Gadiel, for an unforgettable adventure!

Reliable
There are no words for how amazing this experience was. Our organizer, Zepha, was a very reliable person and was easy to reach. Mr. Walter was our guide, and we are all so grateful for him. He is very knowledgeable, kind, trustworthy, and sociable. No one could give us an experience like he did. Definitely recommend, and definitely ask for Mr. Walter as your guide.

Zephaniah was very flexible in customizing our itinerary to our needs.
We highly recommend our safari guide, Justin. He was thorough with our itinerary and was quick to learn what would excite my family. After we started our tour, we mostly just relaxed and enjoyed it while he took us to his targeted game drives for what he wanted to show us each day. He is extremely knowledgeable and was able to show us 80% of wildlife (animals and birds) species that Tanzania has to offer. My whole family felt like we learned a lot about wildlife, animal behavior, and patterns of how the whole ecosystem operates. We were lucky enough to be at right spot at right time to watch three cheetahs hunt and kill wildebeest.
Accommodations are decent with staff always willing to go above and beyond in making you comfortable.

Amazing experience
My husband & I had the best experience using Tanzania Roadside for our honeymoon! We went to Rwanda, Tanzania, and Zanzibar. Planning with Paul was super easy; he responded quickly and was open to my suggestions for changes. He even personally met us when we first arrived in Tanzania and before we left for Zanzibar.
Our guide Ezekiel was awesome. He escorted us from Arusha to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, & Ngorongoro quickly and safely. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, animals, etc. He knew the best places to spot wildlife and always drove us to the best viewing spots, and we were lucky enough to see the Big Five! Ezekiel made sure we were comfortable, and he was flexible & patient with us about scheduling our days.
We can't recommend Tanzania Roadside enough and are already planning our return!

Safe, secure, custom and wonderful.
This is our second trip with Tanzania Roadside. I knew after the first trip we could trust them and we knew the value would provide a special trip at an affordable price and customized around our needs. If you're heading to Tanzania - go with Roadside. Paul and his whole team are wonderful, trustworthy and will provide an unforgettable experience.

Ezekiel Senkoro: exceptional, beautiful inside/out, calm, attentive to detail. Top-notch guide!
My safari adventure with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions exceeded expectations! Ezekiel Senkoro's expert guidance made our journey unforgettable. We explored the breathtaking landscapes of the Serengeti, Mara River Crossing, Ngorongoro, and the Crater, witnessing thrilling moments that will forever be etched in my memory.
The highlights of our trip included witnessing the breathtaking wildebeest crossing twice, spotting the Big Five, and seeing an astonishing 37 lions in one morning game drive. We also encountered many other incredible sights and animals up close and personal.
Ezekiel's exceptional care and expertise made our experience truly seamless. His knowledge, driving skills, and fantastic music selection catered to our every need. He ensured our safety, comfort, and entertainment throughout our journey.
This safari experience has had a lasting impact on me. I've gained a deeper appreciation for Tanzania's wildlife and conservation efforts. I've also learned valuable lessons from the Tanzanian people, including respecting land and wildlife, admiring their hard work and resilience, appreciating simplicity, and embracing sustainability.
I highly recommend Ezekiel Senkoro and Tanzania Roadside Expeditions for an unforgettable safari experience. They have created lifelong memories for me, and I'm confident they will do the same for you!

Great Plan, Great Guide-Driver & Wonderful Experience
We chose Tanzania Roadside Expeditions because the staff were so prompt, informative, patient and flexible as we were planning a nine-day Safari. We got a great guide, Laurian, who was so knowledgeable, flexible, funny and nice. One's guide is critical and we feel so lucky to have gotten Laurian as the three of us (my husband, Laurian, and I) were together for many hours.
We saw the big 5 (Lions, Elephants, Rhinos, Leopards, and Buffalos) the wildebeests crossing the Mara, three pairs of lions mating, a mama and baby leopard, and amazing birdlife, including a Kori Bustard with its necked ballooned.
We also loved the visit to two amazing tribes near Lake Eyasi -- could have spent even more time exploring around there!
