Simply flawless, amazing experience
First of all, Flash Safaris excelled in communication before the trip. E-mails were concise, with all the information, transparent about the itinerary, warning me about potential tourist traps, and I loved the personalized app / web page with all the details, something I could easily share within our group and have it available throughout the trip. First class experience!
The cost was just slightly above the average for what we were looking, but it was absolutely worth it. The advice I got prior to booking a safari was - if you're picking between two options, choose the more expensive one. I can't describe how happy I was that I actually listened to it! :)
The accommodation was superb (we were joking we should skip the safari and just chill for the day), car excellent (fridge + alternator to charge our cell phones and cameras), and guide knowledgable, full of information, very accommodating, overall chill and cool guy. He went above and beyond to show us everything, Big 5 and much more.
I came to Flash Safaris through recommendation, and would absolutely recommend it forward. For us it was just flawless and way above the level we expected.

Great experience
A collegae of me advised us to contact Magda if we would go to Tanzania. And so we did. As we didn't know where to go exactly, we let Flash set up the program. And we don't regret that. We had a great tour in northern Tanzania. Different types of accomodation and landscapes. Our guide Melk was also great. We absolutely recommand Flash to other people, to know exactly what you want and what are the best places to stay.
We felt very welcome at Flash!

Amazing safari, perfect ranger and excellent organised
We went for 7 days safari, into Ngorongoro serengeti, lake Manyara & Park tarangire.
Our ranger was Adam and he took care of a no stress and relaxend adventure. He knew everything about flora & founa and was a great driver.
Besides that we also visited very impressive lodges & hotels. Also arranged By flash.
we’ve been on safari before in south Africa but this is not compatibel to Tanzania.
Great food, amazing people and magnificent nature.

Fabulous
The entire trip was great, and exceeded expectations. Abraham was our guide. He was easy going and very knowledgeable. He definitely made our trip enjoyable. Our vehicle worked well and the camps we stayed at were very good.

Flash fully lives up to your expectations (and more)!
In a nutshell: a fantastic experience! At front Flash thought along to turn our wishes into 2 great weeks. Good communications, strong compliance with promises and agreements, great organization, expert-guides, flexibility when needed but especially their warm personal involvement and care made our stay absolutely wonderfull! Safari, cultural trips and / or the Kilimanjaro ascent; Flash can provide your coming visit with thorough attention to detail. I highly recommend Flash!

Don't hesitate to employ Flash Safaris and Photography!
I don't typically write reviews, but Flash deserves a fabulous one! I was incredibly hesitant to take the leap on choosing a safari company with so many options. A friend recommended Flash and I am so glad she did. After finally choosing Flash, we didn't regret a moment. Flash was patient, responsive, and accommodating. After giving us an initial itinerary based on my requests we massaged it until we were completely satisfied with the accommodations, schedule, and activities. This is the company to hire! Magda, Edward, and Henry will take good care of you.

Trip of a lifetime in Tanzania with Flash Safaris!
For anyone considering a safari, I highly recommend going through Flash Safaris for their own trip of a lifetime! My husband and I traveled to Tanzania in September of 2018. We would never have known how to choose the country, the parks, the time of year, lodgings, etc. on our own. My cousin had traveled to Tanzania with Flash Safaris five years prior. She had such an incredible experience, she invited us along for the second safari. Magda Vrijs was incredibly responsive to e-mails ahead and time, and arranged everything down the last detail (including arranging for vegan meals). Our driver / safari guide was so knowledgeable and easy to get along with, which made our day-long adventures on the plains such a joy! He was incredible at spotting wildlife, and we saw so much more than we ever expected to see. Our visit to the Maasai Lodge was just an added delight at the end of our travels. The service at all of our lodges and camps were top-notch and beyond my expectations. I recommend Flash Safaris and Magda Vrijs without reservation for anyone thinking about traveling to Africa for a safari. We hope to get back again in a couple of years, and will definitely ask Madga to help us plan that trip!

Great communication to meet your Safari desires with best camps/lodges and knowledgeable fun guides.
Responsive communications with the owner. She does whatever necessary to meet your Safari desires and the best camps/lodges in your price range. They meet you at the airport on arrival and take you to your lodging. They recommend a day of rest to adjust to time difference and meet with you to go over the plan for your Safari and discuss your preference for game drive times. Flash will arrange for a balloon Safari and make necessary reservations. Magda does her best to make sure your Safari is unforgettable. Her guides for game drives are knowledgeable and observant to make sure you don’t misss a thing. This is our second Safari with Flash and if there is a third we will definitely book with Magda’s Flash Safaris & Photography.

A real professional organisation with an eye for the client. You will feel you are special !!
We planned this trip for more than a year ago and from the beginning we had a very good connection with Magda Vrijs. She gave us the feeling that our dream could be realised. And she did. Here experience and her eye for the client made us feel special. She helpt us build up this trip and booked the most wonderful accomodations. We made this trip with the 3 of us (2 brothers, 1 sister) and our guide (Meleck John). The experience of the guide and his personality made those safari days unforgetable. This trip will never be forgotten !!
