Incredible adventure due to the thoughtfulness of the Tanzania Choice Safari team & guide Leslie!
Thank you to Tanzania Choice Safaris for truly, a trip of a lifetime and then some! Our safari was an experience unlike any other we’ve had made even more memorable by the care and attention of our safari guide Leslie.
We saw everything we hoped to see in addition to many thoughtful surprises orchestrated by Leslie and the rest of the Tanzania Choice team as the trip was also our 40th wedding anniversary celebration. Our anniversary day was during the trip and we were surprised with a banner, flowers, champagne lunch from Tanzania Choice Safaris and serenade with cake from the staff at Heritage Ndutu Camp.
All of our accommodations from the tent camps to the permanent lodges were delightful and everyone we met made us feel totally welcome and comfortable. Meals were plentiful and delicious…we were always full!
Finally, the people of Tanzania were fun to meet and beautiful hosts. The country was even more remarkable than we imagined from the vastness of the Serengeti to the awe-inspiring views of the Ngorongoro Crater, the countryside was as magical as the animals and the people who call it home. Thank you for sharing your country with us.

Energetic, fun, experts
Other travelers will love learning about animals and nature and also will have a fun time with the tour guide which make the days go by very fast!!
Our tour guide was very friendly and loved to chat, plus his English was very good.
We had so much fun with Tanzania Choice Safaris! The added bonus of cute journals and cups, plus the cold water they always had in the fridge of the safari car, was why we chose this safari. Our guide Leslie was wonderful and we really enjoyed visiting with him. He also did his best to find all the animals we wanted to see, and we saw nearly all that we wanted! I think our favorite part may have been the full lunch meal (with hot coffee included) at Ngorogoro near the hippo pond! Thanks Tanzania Choice Safaris, we had so much fun!

fantastic
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about every part of the trip down to knowing individual trees in the Seregeti. I would happily go on another safari with our amazing guy Leslie.

Tanzania Choice Safaris could not have provided a better safari experience!
From the very beginning, Brenda was so informative and knowledgeable in planning our safari. She was very communicative and the video she provided was such a helpful way to review and plan our itinerary.
Leslie, our safari guide, was phenomenal! His knowledge of the area and wildlife, along with lots of great stories, were very much appreciated. He has a great sense of humor and made us all feel very welcome.
We saw so many animals and are so grateful to have been able to experience all of the natural beauty that Tanzania has to offer!

It was the most awesome experience!
Tanzania Choice Safaris truly handled everything...including all transportation, lodging, scheduling and meals. That made it easy for us to just relax and enjoy our daily safaris. We chose to go during the low season (April). We highly recommend that option for those who want less crowds and more springtime greenery. The lush plants and abundance of water allowed the animals to be happy and healthy. (The local people also enjoyed the fact that their crops were growing.) They customized our itinerary specifically for what WE wanted to see and experience, and we were NOT disappointed. We saw every animal we were hoping to see. We encountered herds of elephants, zebras, impalas, giraffes, gazelles, wildebeest, etc.!! Sometimes all of these animals were seen together! Our guide, Leslie, was absolutely terrific! He stopped every time he saw something that he thought we would want to see. We were interested in taking photos of birds as well as animals. Leslie knew the name of every bird we encountered!!! He went out of his way to ensure that we would see the elusive leopard. (1 of the big 5)! We also enjoyed his extensive knowledge of animal behaviors. We had a great time with him every day. Our lodging choices were excellent, with clean rooms, great restaurants (and staff) and wonderful food. We highly recommend Tanzania Choice for a 'perfect' safari experience!

Tanzania Choice Safaris - Outstanding family safari trip!
We had an AMAZING trip with Tanzania Choice Safaris.
Brenda made the whole trip-planning process super easy from beginning to end. I was overwhelmed with all the choices out there but she simplified everything and gave us options to choose from that were great for both kids and adults. She was patient with all our questions and managed to find lodges that fit all the different kinds of things we were looking for. Communication was very easy, she was very responsive to questions, and the itinerary was detailed and organized including the flights within the country to get us to our next destination. Once confirmed she sends you step-by-step instructions on how to get visas, packing tips, instructions on how to tip in the country, money you should bring, and health information. It's all information you can find online but it was great to have it all in one place and from a trusted source.
We were met at Kilimanjaro airport by our guide for nine days, Kakasii Kimaro, and he was fantastic from the moment he picked us up. His knowledge as a guide is tough to beat and we saw every animal we were hoping to see and many, many, many more. We appreciated his deep knowledge of the parks and that he didn't always stick to the places all the other jeeps were going. He was great with the kids and did a good job balancing all of our requests for things we wanted to see. We learned an incredible amount about the country and people and also about the animals we saw. He had a lot of good stories and fun facts to share and is very talented at driving through ginormous mud puddles. He was also very patient while being interviewed for a 5th-grade school project!
I can't recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris enough. They played a HUGE part in making this one of the best family trips we have had.
