Friendly, professional, personalized safari experts
5/5

I was traveling with a group of colleagues and Tanzania Choice Safaris took us from Arusha to Ngorongoro Crater and back. They (Brenda and Kakasi) arranged for three safari vehicles and guides, and the trip was fantastic: The drivers were safe and friendly and very knowledgeable about the animals; the vehicles were comfortable and provided everything from places to recharge cameras/phones to binoculars; and the packed lunch was excellent--and they even provided hot coffee and tea. Brenda also provided us with a really good guide to restaurants, shops and sightseeing in Arusha, and Kakasi arranged for our transport to the airport--and when we got bumped from our flight, he stayed with us as we arranged for rebooking with KLM and then took us back to Arusha to make sure we were safe and well accommodated until we could fly out the next night. I highly recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris!!

Perfect Safari in Every Way!
5/5

This was the most amazing trip ever and we have Brenda and Kakasii to thank! Everything was planned perfectly. Brenda really made the trip planning a breeze with her helpful knowledge, always listening to what we wanted, checking in, skyping and meeting us at the airport to welcome us on our amazing adventure.

Kakasii is the best guide out there. He knows the animals so well and it is very clear he was made to be on safari! He answered all of our questions we had, has incredible knowledge about all the animals, knows the parks and all the best places to go and always had our best interest in his mind. We had so much fun making a new friend in Kakasii during our five days with him. We will be sending all our friends and family to Tanzania Choice Safaris in the future. We can't wait to go back!

Excellent Experience in Every Way
5/5

Tanzania Choice Safaris is an excellent choice! They made our whole trip easy, comfortable, and full of wonderful adventures. During the planning process they were responsive, extremely helpful, and really listened to what we wanted. During the trip they made us feel welcome, and they were attentive to our needs. Kakasii is a wonderful, knowledgeable, and extremely passionate safari guide who spent 10+ hours with us each day in the safari car looking for animals. Our Mt. Kilimanjaro team was supportive, kind, and helpful. We highly recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris!

An amazing way to see an amazing place
5/5

This was everything a safari should be: fun, adventurous, low-stress, full of incredible animals and sights. This company really knows how to ensure that you see a variety of animals and enjoy your time in one of the most beautiful places on earth. It's really the driver who makes the experience--we saw other drivers who weren't patient enough to wait for animals to come into view or for visitors to take the photos they wanted. Our driver was kind, incredibly knowledgeable, familiar with the park and other drivers, and a fantastic host. If you are planning to come to Tanzania for safari, you will not regret going with Tanzania Choice Safaris!

A totally amazing and unforgettable safari with Kakasii!
5/5

Tanzania Choice Safaris was extremely helpful and professional from our first contact with them to the end of our safari. Brenda was so amazing to cater the safari to our needs and budget and Kakasii was the best guide! We got to see and photo all of the animals we were hoping to and so many more! Often we were the first truck to spot an animal and other driver guides would ask him for tips or if they can follow us through the Serengeti. Kakasii knows all of the roads through the parks so well and seems to have a sixth sense for finding game, we are so incredibly happy we went with Brenda and Kakasii and will definitely book with them again on our next safari in Tanzania and will recommend them to all of our friends!

Unforgettable
5/5

Thank you again for the amazing trip you provided us to Tanzania! It was unforgettable nonetheless and I haven't stopped talking about it since I have been home.. I see another visit in the future! It couldn't have been more personalized, seriously! We took a short trip to Tanzania mid May, the weather was perfect.. Not too hot, not too cool! We visited the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire, both absolutely thrilling! Tarangire had an abundance of elephants where you were able to be up close and personal with them! Ngora offered a true safari experience with breathtaking views in addition to a wide variety of animals. We were lucky enough to see baby cubs, and rhinos! Kakasii was a great tour guide, his English was excellent and his knowledge of the parks and Tanzania was even better.. Our trip was truly unforgettable!

Your bucket list should include a safari trip specifically with Tanzania Choice Safaris!
5/5

Being from the United states, I was extremely pleased with how prompt the communication between Brenda, Kakasii and I was. From the moment I sent the first email, to the time I said goodbye, their service was first class. The Land Rover was emaculate, the lodging choices were beyond amazing, especially the Katikati camp, and the tour guide himself, Mr Kakasii Kimaro is the epitome of what a tour guide is suppose to be. He has a sixth sense for finding the animals. His brain has the GPS for the entire Ngorogoro Crater and the serengeti plains, he is very knowledgeable about Tanzania, the birds and animals, and his love for nature is infectious and contagious. The trip was by far the best vacation I've ever been on and exceeded all my expectations. If you ever want to visit the plains of the Serengeti and the Ngorogoro Crater, contact Tanzania Choice Safaris!

Awesome experience with an awesome company!
5/5

As part of a broader trip to Tanzania, my companions and I had the opportunity to go on a half-day safari with Tanzania Choice Safaris. In addition to being a world class driver (you want one of those when you're in an unfamiliar place!), Kakasii is also probably the friendliest, kindest person you will ever hope to meet, and a fountain of knowledge. I was amazed by his ability to spot the smallest bird while we were traveling to and once we were inside the park - he could identify it instantly and tell us all about it.

We went to a park that is a bit off the beaten path, since it was en route to our other destination, and we may have been the only vehicle in the park. It truly felt like we were in the wilderness, and not just a tourist destination. It was incredible to be there, surrounded by gorgeous hills and mountains, plants and animals. I was awe struck. I so appreciated Kakasii's patience and expertise as we simply sat and waited for things to happen around us (they did!) or spot something from a distance and somehow get there quickly and without disturbing the animals.

I would definitely do this again, and recommend this to anyone heading to East Africa!
