Brenda helped us plan a trip of a lifetime, and it was perfect!
Our experience was exceptional. We didn't have to worry about a single thing from the moment we booked the trip. The tour operator, Brenda, was kind, patient and really cared about our trip planning, understanding this might be the only time we may be able to get to Tanzania. Our tour guide, in one word, fantastic. He knew a lot about everything. As birders, he was patient and made observations for us as we checked off life list birds, one after the other! He knew every area we went, where to be and where to see all of the animals. We felt safe, amazed, excited and elated with the entire trip!

A dream trip come true!
Brenda and TCS were amazing and ensured our 10th anniversary was the trip of a lifetime. From the personalized itinerary review with Brenda to the care taken with finalizing every detail, we knew we were always in good hands. Through early and constant communications, we were quite at ease with every part of the plan before we started travel. All of the safari properties Brenda found were amazing! Having elephants in your back yard at sunrise is something you’ll never forget.
Brenda was also in contact throughout our trip to ensure everything was going well. When one issue did arise in Zanzibar, Brenda quickly had one of her local contacts meet with us to ensure we were taken care of. The care throughout the trip was above and beyond, but this problem solving support was next level!
For the safari itself, we couldn’t have asked for more! Our guide Victor was a true professional. From pickup at the airport, he was always ensuring our experience was top notch. His vast knowledge of the parks was a great asset, as we always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. He was eager to explain so many things along the journey, and was patient and flexible to our desires while we were out in the truck. He was more than happy to sit and watch the animals as long as we wanted, or to move along when we were ready. His experience and knowledge was the key to our seeing everything we had dreamed of, and more. While it’s never a guarantee, we just knew we would see the Big 5!
If you are considering a Tanzania safari, this is the best you can do. Call or email Brenda today!

Outstanding Experience from Texas!!!
I would highly recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris! They met all of our needs along the way. They ensured safe travel up and down the mountain with plenty of protection, provision, and great memories!

It was an exciting and amazing experience.
Breathtaking. So many animals and so close to our safari vehicle, you could almost reach out and touch them. The actual driver was awesome and was relentless in finding a lion for us to see upclose. Simply amazing!

Unforgettable Guide
Forget all other tours. Kakashi is the godfather of guides. He is the guide others aspire to be. He knows the terrain, he knows where the animals are and he has an eye for locating them and being the first one there. Such a wonderful time spent with a true professor of wildlife. We were a party of 6. I've traveled the world and usually find my own way. I was hesitant but so glad we joined this group. Thanks Brenda for making all the arrangements and Kakasii for being our guide and leader. STOP SEARCHING NOW AND BOOK TANZANIA TOURS.

Once in a Lifetime Trip!
Overall, my wife and I had an excellent adventure during our safari. We went at the end of the great migration. Our guide, Noel, met us at the airstrip and our journey began.
We started at the Ngorogoro Crater and ended at the very northern end of the Serengeti. Noel was very knowledgable and hyper-competent. We always felt safe and informed. Considering we were in the Landcruiser for a week, we really enjoyed one another's company. Noel, and his cohort of professional guide (who are linked by a radio network), worked diligently to expose us to wildlife. We even saw a lion take down a Zebra! We saw one of the last wildebeast river crossings and even saw some crocodiles make brutal work of a few stragglers.
Overall, our guide made our safari fantastic! We cannot recommend them enough.

I wish I could safari every year with Tanzania Choice Safaris
For my wife's 50th birthday we decided to take an African safari. We looked online and spoke to one safari coordinator in the US but luckily we mentioned our plans to a friend who had taken a safari with Tanzania Choice safaris. I am so glad that conversation because from the initial meeting to the subsequent planning sessions we knew we had made the right choice. Brenda did an amazing joj of organizing everything perfectly for us and we had the adventure of a lifetime. It was exactly what we were looking for in a safari and it was truly a magnificent trip. Our guide was truly outstanding and Leslie was such a wonderful educator and driver. All in all we long to return to Tanzania and recreate this adventure one day in the future and there is not doubt in my mind our first and only call would be to Tanzania Choice Safaris for a return trip !!!

A warm and knowledgeable guide to the Parks, concerned about our enjoyment, and a great driver.
Tanzanian Choice Safaris was a dream to work with. The husband-and-wife owners (a Tanzanian man and an American woman who live in the country and frequent the hotels and lodges themselves) were primarily focused on our enjoyment and comfort, and were able to tailor a trip just the way we wanted. And, most importantly, they did not try to oversell us or manipulate our schedule like other companies. The personal touch was apparent from our earliest consultation, to having lunch with them in Arusha, to dropping us at the airport. The jeep was comfortable, the driving was excellent, and everything was top-notch. It was a point of pride for our guide (also the owner) to show us as many animals as he could. All the lodging was great, and the Zanzibar portion of our trip, organized by Tanzanian Choice, was also wonderful. I have nothing but good things to say about Tanzanian Choice and would recommend them heartily to anyone.

Leslie and Tanzania Choice Safaris are absolutely the best!
I scheduled my safari very close to my travel date. Brenda coordinated the trip beautifully, and arranged everything. Leslie, my guide, is the absolute best! He was able to locate animals at an incredible distance, and instinctively knew exactly where to stop to get the ideal view. In addition, he was like an encyclopedia for the various creatures we found. (He had a book available, but generally referenced it only to show me something as a comparison; I think I stumped him only once with a question about ostriches). We were able to see all the usual safari sights; but a number of unusual sights as well (including mama and baby cheetahs, and a serval cat). Leslie just "instinctively" knew where to be and when. He is like a magician!
