All expectations were exceeded. The hotels were good but fastastic were all the camps and all their staff. We will Never forget this Safari . Thank You very much to all of you.

Excellent company, professional service and very friendly staff.
Everything excellent and flexible to my needs, during a 5 days Safari at Lake Manyara, Nrongorongo and Serengeti.
All previus contact was with Alex, who had iniciative to talk to me by wap and answer all my doubts.
The Safari Guide was Allen, who is the best one!
He knows a lot about savana and the animals, very professional and friendly with me and my boyfriend.
The hotel suggestion was very nice and the balloon safari magic!

The safari was all in all a great success. With Mama Savana there were no complications and everything ran perfectly. Thanks also from our side to the great trip.

Could t have asked for more!
We had an incredible honeymoon safari with mama savana. Alex picked us up from the airport, and Mac gave us in unforgettable and incredible 5 day safari experience in ngorongoro, tarangire, and Serengeti. Amazing and highly recommended!

Unforgettable Safari / Zanzibar
Our experience with Mamasavana was impeccable. From the initial planning stages to the end, Alex was very prompt in answering questions and emails were answered swiftly. We decided to do the 7 day safari and 7 day beach. The price he quoted for the package was much more reasonable than the other quotes I got. We went to Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park - the northern and central parts and then to Karatu. In Zanzibar we had 2 nights in Stone Town , then 5 nights on the east cost in a beach hotel in Jambiani. I went with my 19 yr. old daughter and was concerned about the meals as she is vegetarian and also does not eat fish. Well no worries; the food was plentiful and tasty and her new food is pumpkin soup! All the lodges and tented camps were excellent and very spacious. The bucket showers were great. My favourite lodge was Sangaiwe Tented Lodge. It had a rustic feel with a beautiful view and a pool. The dining experience was great with candlelights. Our safari driver/guide was Allen and he had good driving skills. The roads were only suitable for land cruisers as the terrain was very bumpy, dusty but he got thru. He had great knowledge about the animals and the terrain. He could spot an animal at a distance whereas I could not see any. He was great company and courteous. We saw plenty of animals and including the big 5 (the rhino was too far for me to see). Saw cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and of course wildebeast migrating over the Mara river and hippos. Tanzania is a beautiful country with wonderful people. I highly recommend Mamasavana as your safari provider as they can customize your safari. We had a great time and will always remember our first safari and hopefully not our last.

A great experience!
Our safari experience was absolutely great! The email communication with Alex was very professional (both through email & whatsapp). He was very flexible and picked us up from the Airport at 3am! He also got us a honeymoon dinner on our last night in Arusha. Overall, he made us feel the experience was definitely worthy!
Allen, our driver and guide was very nice to us (and he even spoke a little bit of Spanish, which was definitely unusual to see!). He is a very experienced driver and guide, has a lot of knowledge about the animals and the parks. And, he definitely has the best eyes to spot animals (no matter how far they are). We managed to see the big 5 and had some amazing experiences (close to elephants, a cheetah, lions, etc). Absolutely magical!
Overall, everything was absolutely great and the only tiny downside is that we hardly felt we were in our honeymoon. The places where we stayed overnight were all great (Alex made magnificent choices for us!), but almost none of them treated us in a special way. We just felt we were doing a great trip, but not a honeymoon trip (except on a couple occasions, including the last night in Arusha that Alex took great care of).
P.S.: If you are planning to go to Tanzania in June, beware of the weather! It is colder than you might expect, make sure you bring warm clothes with you!

An unforgettable experience!
We decided to book the "7-Day Tanzania Lodge and Tented Safari" for our honeymoon based on the good reviews and the very competitive price. The tour includes starting in Arusha, Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro. We noticed that in case you want to customise your Safari or have special wishes, they are very flexible.
The first pleasant surprise was that mamasavana offered us a free upgrade to luxury lodges with most spectacular views! The second surprise was that we were the only ones at that moment to join the Safari tour, so we basically had a private tour.
The email communication with Alex ( the manager) was very professional and clear and he met us personally for a nice chat in Arusha before we took off for the Safari in the next morning.
Allen, our driver and guide was another pleasant surprise, I strongly recommend to have Allen as a designated guide. He is a very experienced driver and guide, has a lot of knowledge about the animals and the parks, is funny and has the eyes of an eagle!
We were able to see the big 5 and many more animals, and most spectacular of all: we witnessed the kill of a wildebeast by a group of lions, from strategic planning all the way to the finish. We also saw a group of cheetahs feasting on a freshly killed gazelle.
We will definitely recommend Mamasavana safaris to anyone who wants to visit Tanzania and hopefully we will be back soon!
To Allen and Alex: You have given us an unforgettable experience!
Asante sana!
