5/5

The communication was prompt right from the start. Nelson was prompt with my queries. The safari itself was very well organised and planned. There were no delays or any issues with respect to food, stay.

The guide was wonderful! Happened to see amazing wildlife in action.

Relaxed and Experienced
5/5

We had a fantastic experience seing Tarangire-Ngorongoro-Serengeti-Manyara. Peter, our guide willingly shared interesting insights on the way, and was a really pleaseant person to spend these days with. We saw all the big five except for leopard, and a lot of the animals were only a couple of meter away. Our chef Innocent also provided us good meals throughout our tour, and was also a very nice person to spend time with.

The communication with Focus in Africa went really smooth. Although we were unused to do reservations and bookings via Whatsapp, they always delivered what was agreed. Keep in mind that for a budget safari, one have to have realistic expectations regarding accommodation. We slept in tents for two nights, but this also allowed for wildlife experiences during night time. We think that the Focus in Africa delivered exceptional value for their price.

Organised, reachable anytime, fun
5/5

This my first safari and I will never forget it.
We booked the tour through Nelson who explained everything to us and made it easy to decide to do the safari through him.
Our driver/guide was Bryson and our cooks name was Prosper. They were nothing but excellent, fun and organised everything perfectly.
We did a shared safari with three others for 5 days. 1day Taragire, 2+3d Serengeti, 4d Ngorongoro, 5d Lake Manyara. We slept two nights in tents and two nights in little houses. We had most of the time warm water to shower. The facilities were clean and the food amazing! We all gained weight. They had water prepared for us every day and Bryson drove very safe and stopped for everything we wanted to see or did another angle for the pictures. He had really patience with us and could explain every animal we saw.
There is honestly nothing negative or to complain. Everything was very well communicated with us and I loved it. It cost us 850 dollar each + tips

Fabulous budget safari
5/5

Great value for money! We saw all the same things the people on more expensive safaris saw, our accommodations and food were just more basic. Innocent and Bryson, our guide and cook, we’re absolutely the BEST! They were attentive to our every need, super kind and very professional. We had a lot of fun with them. Communication was good and the whole thing was well Organized. The only thing I would say needs improvement is the vehicle- the charging station didn’t work and the flashing around the doors leaked.

Amazing. Everything was taken good care of. Thank you guys
5/5

I did four day safari in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti parks. Our guid was very nice and very helpful. He was always able to respond any of the questions about the wildlife.
He also knew very well the parks and new where to go to look for the animals.
He and the cook took such a nice care of us. The meals were very tasty and they respected each of the person’s from our group diets.
We would always leave on time and if there was any problem, there was also a solution very quickly.
It was worth every penny. I would gladly recommend this to anyone ;)

Best offer for the ones who look for an affordable Safari!
5/5

My brother and I booked the 2 days Safari, for Tarangire and Ngorongoro crater.
Very satisfied with this safari, the guide, the price and the food provided! Amazing experience. So I'm very thankful.

The hostel included in the Safari isn't the best one but very affordable if you decide to stay more after the Safari. However they are very flexible and it is possible not to stay there the night before the Safari for the ones who desire to stay somewhere else.

Moreover I would not recommend to visit the "Masai village" on the way to the "camp", which provided, in my opinion, a poor experience. I feel it was just meant to make us spend more money. The souvenirs sold there are the same as the Masai market in Arusha but much more expensive.

Besides this it was just perfect and still deserves 5 stars!
