Greatly awesome!
So, to make a long story short: Our trip was amazing! We did a stunning three day safari, organized by Charles. Saw Ngorongoro as well as Serengeti and were lucky with regards to the animals we saw :) Safari was awesome, food was very good. We felt very comfortable throughout our whole trip particularly thanks to Charles who took care of us and helped us with the bookings of our hotels, additional transports, etc. He’s just a great tour operator.
We’ll recommend him to our friends and – that’s for sure – get back to him as soon as we’ll be back in Tanzania! Asante sana, Charles for a lovely time!

Best event in my life - a safari with Charles and safari porini
Last June I had my best four days in my Life! How? By doing a camping safari in the National Parks of Tanzania. Not only because a safari is a really overwhelming event but also because I had the best guide: Charles Njau and his Safari Agency ‘safari porini’ (www.safariporini.com). On the first day we were picked up at our hostel in Moshi and took direction to the Tarangire National Park. Here we made our first game drive and even saw lions which are very rare in this park - thanks to Charles, guide and driver. He did everything to show us as much as possible even if he had to speed through the Tarangire Park or had to drive through a muddy hole to give as the possibility to watch a lion mother with her three children from a close view. This was on our second day in the Serengeti where we spent the night in the middle of this National Park without any fence or other protection around the campsite. The third day began at 6am to see the sunrise in the Serengeti with a following game drive. We saw two hunting lions and a leopard eating his prey on a tree. And again it was Charles’ great experience and engagement that we had one of the best points of view every time. We spent our last day in the Ngorongoro Crater after a very exciting night and morning – buffaloes and elephants are the usual visitors there - at the campsite with view down into the Crater.
I have to add that we had really great luck because even though you have the best guide you must keep in mind that doing a safari depends a lot on the animals, their behavior and the environmental conditions. Therefore the best season is June until August when the raining season is over and the ‘winter’ begins. Then the rivers and lakes have more water again and it is colder for the animals to be agile.
Last but not least I have also to mention that not only Charles allowed us this great experience but also his friend and our cook indulged us with great meals and the best lunchboxes I ever had! It was a lot of fun with these two kind and affable guys that I would never chose another safari agency!!! Their motto is: Giving the clients their most unforgettable event in life! Or when the conditions aren’t that good: Doing everything to allow the clients a good event that is worth keeping in good memory!
