Fantastic safari experience! Great communication and value
We spent a lot of time trying to decide which company to choose for our safari in Tanzania, and I am so happy that we decided on Nature Responsible Safari. We spent a week in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and had the best time. Great itinerary and excellent choice of accommodations, at a fair price - better than other quotes I received. Our safari guide John was very knowledgeable, and also a really cool, fun person.
We just happened to come across Nature by searching for a very particular combination of location to visit and starting date. Safaris are generally expensive, and so I was a little hesitant at first, because other companies had thousands of reviews, however, from the first contact, Fransisca seemed so genuinely nice and inspired a lot of trust - in a way that other companies didn't. So I decided to go ahead and book. Communication before our trip was always timely and bank transfers went smoothly.
Once we arrived at Haraladi's Home in Arusha we were greeted with a level of hospitality that I've rarely experienced in my travels. I couldn't really explain why, but everyone was so laid-back, nice and accommodating - all in a very genuine way. You feel so welcomed as part of their family even just for a little while, and you don't feel like just another customer. At that point, we knew we were in good hands, and the week that followed turned out to be one of our greatest travel experiences ever. We saw so so SO many animals...
I'm very happy with the choice that I've made and to anyone is reading this and feels unsure, I can say with great confidence that you won't regret picking Nature for your safari 🐾

My 2nd trip with Nature Responsible Safari - and it won't be the last
I usually book my vacation well in advance. I booked this trip here at short notice to get a change from the European rainy weather ;-). The contact with the owner - Fransisca - was trustworthy and all questions were answered very quickly.
The trip took us from Tarangire NP via Lake Manyara to the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater.
Our guide John has a lot of experience, patiently explained to us what we wanted to know and knew exactly when we needed to be where.
Once again Asante Sana to NRS

Eco-friendly safari tours lead by local experts
Nature Responsibly is an exceptional tour company that ensures that all resources are locally owned and managed by Tanzanians. Fransisca Masika, her family and the company’s staff were outstanding and super friendly hosts. All details, from our first email inquiry to plan the trip, to our arrival at the Arusha airport until our final farewell at the end of our 6 day safari were highly personalized and professional. This tour company focuses on their guests interests and experiences and builds your tour from your input and requests, unlike other tours we have done in the past. Accommodations were top notch, meals were delicious and plentiful and the hospitality from all other hotel staff along the way were of highest quality. By far, the most distinguished trait of Nature Responsibly are their exceptional safari tour guides. Our guide, Heriel had an impressive breadth of knowledge regarding ALL flora and fauna in the three national parks we visited. Even though it was the rainy season and the grasses were tall, we saw so many large cats, full prides, cubs, cheetahs, elephants, hippos, and multitudes of birds thanks to his strategic planning and expert planning. Moreover, our daily expeditions and impromptu discussions with our guide regarding all things Tanzania expanded our tour to also include the local ecosystems and cultural history. We would never have had access to this broad knowledge prior to this safari tour. We will definitely look to book with them again!

The most magical trip
Nature Responsible Safari got everything right! Tanzanian woman owned, conscious tourism, and the welcome could not have been warmer in every place we stayed. The accommodations and food were fantastic (being vegetarian was no issue whatsoever...in fact everything was vegan except the milk in our coffee). Compared to other companies I researched, the trip was very reasonably priced and we honestly can't imagine that it could have been any more luxurious than it was. Our guide, Heriel, was expertly patient in finding animals (and navigating traffic outside of parks) and we really enjoyed his company. We are not normally beach people but our 5 days in Zanzibar were equally magical, largely to the amazing places we stayed and the wonderful staff. We've only been home for 10 days but we are already dreaming about going back. Nature Responsible Safari clearly values building a connection with each individual client and we feel so lucky to have met them!
