Over the top wonderful!
Fabulous tour with Aardvark Safaris Tanzania. Our group spent the better part of two weeks visiting Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Oldupai Gorge, the Serengeti, and Lake Eyasi. All our accommodations were unique, welcoming and clean, including four nights at Katikati, a temporary camp in the Serengeti, where we dined in the open air and slept in canvas tents with toilets and showers. Driver guides Augustine and David were superb, with astounding knowledge of birds and mammals. Augustine went out of his way to make sure this trip exceeded our expectations. We've been on safari before. Compared to Aardvark, that earlier safari was more like visiting the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park. This was a true adventure, and we were in the best of hands.

An outstanding trip organised by Aardvark to visit gorillas and Serengeti
An amazing trip - exceeded all expectations. Highlights included seeing the Gorillas in Rwanda - a group of 10 on first day and family of 20 on the second. Virunga Lodge is a spectacular place to stay.Easy flight into the Serengeti with no issues re vaccination certificates on entry - luggage also easy on small planes - we had soft luggage but many had larger cases on wheels.Lamai camp fantastic and guides outstanding- travelled west to see start of migration although it was running a few weeks late.
Stay at Highlands excellent near the cater - took about 50 mins to reach crater but bonus being inside national park- no delays or queues.
Overall a great trip with many memories- a big thank you to all lodges for handling all specific dietary requirements so well.a great trip organised by the team at Aardvark

Again and Again Tanzania with Aardvark
I just returned back from Tanzania (15days Wildlife Safari ) along with my best friend Sally from the United States.
We had wonderful time in Tanzania with best tour guide (Augustine, a.k.a "Gus" from Aardvark could not let even a mosquito bite on our safari trip. (what a wonderful person)
Very knowledgeable and pays attention to every detail.
I give 10/10 to Gus and 100/100 to Aardvark safaris Tanzania.
Memorable and surely i will come again and again.

Extremely knowledgable, friendly, efficient and very environmentally conscious.
I could not more wholeheartedly recommend a tour company!!! Very open communication before and during, organized, clean vehicles, and the staff knowledge was just amazing. We were driving back from a day trip in Mzomazi Park, and our driver points out a sleeping leopard in a tree probably 100 yards from the road. We could barely find the tree, much less the leopard and we weren't safely driving on a dirt road! All 3 drivers (one being the tour leader) had vast knowledge of the birds and animals, including how to be ecologically friendly in our viewing of them. Consistently we saw other tour companies race in too close, scaring birds and animals that we had been cautiously observing from a safe distance. I will say this was an expensive trip as vacations go, but the lack of hassles, excellent accommodations and meals, along with the amazing sightings just made it totally worthwhile. Despite traffic in cities and the culture being less sensitive to timeliness than Americans, we were always picked up to start on time. I would be almost afraid to do another trip because I just don't believe it could get any better. We saw lions 9 different days, had this spectacular leopardess with cubs sighting (we watched them for 2 hours), and overall saw 336 species of birds and 58 animals/reptiles. The tour was well balanced with efforts made to keep everyone in the group happy--had a lot of serious birders and photographers along, but still took time to see cultural and archeological sights as well as shopping. We totally loved the staff members and know you can't go wrong with this company on a trip of a lifetime!
