Enjoyable time and extremely accommodating
Overall, an excellent safari. Particularly appreciated the flexibility in making my arrangements as I wanted them including determining exact timing during the safari itself. The accommodations were varied and superb (and the massage at Ngorongoro was welcomed after a day on bumpy roads.) The food was very good, much better than I expected, including the box lunches. I felt like a cherished client. And, of course, the experience with the animals was top-notch. Highly recommend.

Great trip to Mikumi
We did the 2-day safari to Mikumi and had an excellent time. The guide was professional and very service minded. The lodge in the national park (Mikumi Safari Lodge) had good standard, was clean, had good food and the staff was great. Overall the trip went very smoothly from our hotel I Dar es Salaam and back. We saw all kind of wild animals and have a lot of nice memories from that trip.

2 day safari at Mikumi National Park
An amazing experience. Everything was excellent from the booking to the actual trip. Our tour guide was informative and a wizz at finding lions! The Mikumi safari lodge was of a high standard and the staff could not have done more to make us feel welcome.

Excellent value for money
Went for a 4-day safari covering up to Serengeti. Accommodations were of high quality and our guide was simply brilliant. He even went out of the way to make sure we get to see a pride of lions up close on our last day in Serengeti. Imagine Tanzania was also a lot more affordable than some of the other companies I had enquired with. Overall, I would say they provide excellent value for money.

Great fun
The trip was arranged quickly and the tour company tried their best to meet our expectations and budgets. This was a hard feat considering the size of our expectations relative to our budgets. When we got there, we were blown away by the service we received and the places we visited on our budget trip and the time we had available. The tour company communicated diligently throughout the trip and moved quickly to arrange the whole thing for four people in three different countries and time zones within 2 weeks.
The only negative I can say was the contractor the tour company used in country on Safari. When time seemed to be getting short he lost his temper and threatened to leave one of my traveling companions in a Masai Boma village. While it seems funny now reading it as I type, it did mar the trip briefly for all of us. Other than that, everything and everyone else went out of their way to accommodate us even leaving restaurants open hours after closing fully staffed to serve us a late dinner.

Nice experience
I am an expat living in Dar es Salaam. I went Safari with a friend of mine from China (2 days at Mikumi National Park). The pre-safari communications with Deo was smooth and pleasant. He responded quickly in a professional manner. During the tour, our safari guide Amani was really nice. I would say he appeared to me a very reliable person, an invaluable quality in the land of Africa. We were able to see lions, zebras, elephants, rhinos, antelopes among other animals. The trip was smooth and enjoyable. But for future tourists, remember to take some long sleeve clothes; it is good for keeping warm in the night and to avoid insects biting. I would strongly recommend Imagine Tanzania to future tourists for a good value experience.

Outstanding Travelagency
I booked a two days trip to Mikumi Park from Dar Es Salaam. The Contact in advance for the booking was all time ver nice and courteous. Even If the number of joining People changed, it was always a pleasure to write to Deo. Once arrived in Dar, They came and picked us up even on time. They where even earlier as they expected traffic. But they never tried to rush. After a warm welcome from Deo and our Tourguide Sky we went off to Mikumi. Sky was a great driver/guid. As he has a very huge knowledge about his country and aswell of the Game in the Park, we had a very instructive Safari. Our overnight Stay in the Mikumi Safari Lodge was absolutely great. The Lodge is build up with lots of love and on a great spot. Feburnya and her Brother took good care of us. And it felt like, we were at Home. They But so much Love in it.
All in all we were more than happy that we booked with ITTB. All time good communication and outstanding Safari. Dear Deo and Sky, Thank you so much for showing us the Beauty of you Country and I hope to come back very soon. Michael

Great Agency
My wife and I booked our Tanzania trip through Imagine Tanzania and we couldn't have been happier with the advice and help we got from Deo, Jackie and the team. They gave us great options for both Safari and our Zanzibar trip, and really tailored everything towards our requirements and budget. They always responded promptly and addressed any concerns we had politely and efficiently. Everything was organised from flights through to airport pick ups and drop offs, and they helped us to be really organised by providing us with the relevant paperwork as there could potentially have been a lot of confusion.
In the end we decided on Serena Mivumo Game Park in Selous and Tulia Hotel in Zanzibar and this really was a holiday of a lifetime.
Thank you Imagine Tanzania - you guys are great.
