They made my once in a lifetime experience a once in a lifetime experience
On our trip 8 of us had a 4 day safari and 8 day Mt Kilimanjaro climb. Brenda was super helpful at very stage from planning until we boarded the plane home. We were treated as family friends with our trip customized to meet our wishes and needs. Emails and skype calls prior to the trip were half full in making sure we were prepared and also that our expectations were being met. The experience was beyond my expectations. The safari was incredible with knowledgeable drivers, great lunches, water packed for us every day. The hotel accommodations varied and were all wonderful. Brenda was able to get updates from Festo while we were on the mountain and she kept our family and friends updated on our progress. They were thankful for this because when we did not have cell service and no other way to let them know how we were doing.
I can't say enough positives about our experience and how thankful I am for their part in making this a trip I will never forget.

Life time opportunity fulfulled
I have been planning this trip with my brother for about a year. We ended up with a total of 8 people to help share this monumental trip. After much deliberation, we decided to go with Tanzania Choice Safaris. I had one small request to include a safari driver that I had about 9 years ago. They were happy to oblige. The planning and communication were great. We of course had numerous questions along the way. They were all answered in a timely manner and professionally. Upon arrival, we were greeted which is always a nice thing in a foreign country. If we had extra time, plans were easily adjusted to us. Even on the mountain when we took longer to arrive at the summit than expected, our plans were quickly and easily changed to accommodate us getting to the top. T)he safari driver that I requested, Yusuph (I will admit I am prejudge towards him) went over and above to make sure the safari was suburb! Kati Kati, the tented camp in Serengeti was an extra pleasant surprise being in the middle of a National Park. The shower was the best I had the entire trip. To think we were out there among all of the animals. The food was fabulous! Rhino lodge was a surprise with zebras grazing outside our cabin door in the evening and an elephant that came into the lodge area to get a snack. I could go on and on about how great this experience was. You have to see to believe! Thanks Brenda and Kawkasii, I could not have asked for anything better!

A great experience
Had a wonderful time. Our team had a great guide who was also fun to spend time with when we weren't hiking. All in all Tanzania Choice Safaris exceeding my expectations and will be my top choice for future ventures to this beautiful country.

Fantastic!
I joined a group of 7 people that had already hired Tanzania Choice Safaris for their trip to Tanzania. The people in the group said that Brenda was very responsive to their questions even before we had signed the agreement. Every detail from being picked up at the airport, all the hotel arrangements, drivers, etc. was planned perfectly! Both Brenda and Kakasii were so welcoming! I felt like part of the family. I would highly recommend choosing Tanzania Choice Safaris for any adventure you are planning in Tanzania!

An experience that has created memories that will last forever.
As first time safari travelers, we were impressed with everything about Tanzania Choice Safaris. From the initial emails with Brenda, to actually beginning our adventure in Arusha, to the final days - it was everything that we had imagined and more. Kakasii was so hospitable and knowledgeable leading us to see so many incredible animals. His passion and excitement were contagious as he shared his love of Tanzania, the beauty of nature and the majesty of the many animals - large and small. The land cruiser, cold drinks, the accommodations and the meals we shared just made for an exceptional travel experience. We were all sorry to see our adventure come to an end. Of all the companies offering safaris, please put this company at the top of your list for consideration. You will not be disappointed.

Exciting, comfortable and romantic safari, full of adventure
I'm very pleased we decided to go with Tanzania Choice. All communication was timely, efficient, friendly and professional. Tanzania is a very special, very beautiful place and our guide, Leslie, was very informative and experienced. Brenda of Tanzania Choice went above and beyond in arranging our trip. Our special dietary requirements were well taken care of for us in advance and we stayed in places that exceeded our expectations. She arranged our trip beautifully.
I miss it very much.

This was an amazing trip of a Lifetime!
The safari we went on with Tanzania Choice Safaris was absolutely amazing! From the first email contact with Brenda to waving goodbye to Kakasii at the airport, everything was really excellent. Our guide (and owner) Kakasii is passionate about giving his passengers the best experience possible, and it really shows. He knows so much about the animals; he knows so many people; he sincerely cares about the comfort of his passengers; he loves his country. Brenda was very responsive to our repeated email contacts about the itinerary, the hotels, the dates of travel, etc. I would recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris to anyone wanting an amazing trip of a lifetime!

If experiences were a meal, this one had plenty of entrees yet left me wishing for second helpings
Generally the opportunity to visit the wilds of Tanzania to see the wild life was all that I had expected. The accommodations were excellent. Staff in all locations were so attentive and went beyond the call to see to it that all needs were met.
The down side was wishing we could have spent more time in some locations to get to know the people and culture better. For example, we ended our trip with a one night visit to the Masaai Lodge. The one night stay was due to limited availability, I know. However, this was a great place with much to offer to learn more about the setting and people."Not enough" isn't really a complaint.

It was the best adventure of my life!
From beginning to end, this safari was well thought out, organized, and coordinated wonderfully. All the accommodations were excellent. The tent camps are rustic but definitely not "roughing it." The food was fantastic, healthy and beautifully prepared. Kakasii never ceased to amaze me with his genuine excitement and enthusiasm when he spotted an animal or bird he really wanted us to see. Both Brenda and Kakasii go above and beyond for their clients, and I will definitely be recommending their company to anyone who asks me for information about doing a trip like this. A heartfelt thank you to both of you for making each day of our trip "the best day yet!"

Tailored perfectly to meet or unique needs, even though we had 3 kids 3 and younger.
Brenda and Kakasi went above and beyond to make this a great experience with my wife, 3 kids, and father-in-law. We got to see all the animals we had hoped to, most of which we saw extraordinarily close up yet without ever feeling worried about the safety of our little ones. Kakasi clearly is extremely familiar with the unmarked roads that crisscross the Serengeti, and was awesome to spend time with. If you're looking for the best Safari company around, I'd say you found it here.
