Professional, friendly, reliable!!!
It was a perfect 3-days safari tour with friends organized by Mazingira which became one of the most amazing experience in our life. Our contact person was Johari, who helped us in planning the safari.
She is very kind, flexible, patient and knowledgeable. When we arrived in Arusha the day before the tour, she was already waiting for us at the hotel to meet personally and discuss the details of the tour.
Our guide Elisante picked us up at the hotel the next morning. We were so glad to have Eli as our guide. He is a true professional, knowledgable, answering all our questions and very patient. Eli took care of everything we felt really comfortable and safe with him. The game drives were amazing with many many animals :)
Our Mazingira vehicle was a “pop-up roof” Toyota Land Cruiser, which was in a very good condition, well maintained, with built-in refrigerator and the tires were in excellent shape too.
Our accommodation and the food was perfect, everything according to our expectations.
Mazingira is an amazing company to book with and I highly recommend it!! 10/10

Amazing experience !!
We had booked a 3 nights 4 day safari with Mazingira. Jojo from the office was very prompt in responding to tailor make the journey for us before we landed. Once we landed in Kilimanjaro and were picked up by Thom; our guide it was smooth sailing. His friendly nature, his knowledge of all 3 parks was invaluable in spotting game. The routes he picked in Tarangire and Manyara were perfect . In the crater his spotting skills lead us to a black rhino and a huge male lion which other guides had missed ..it was incredible how he spotted them from far away. Overall a perfect 100% and we are looking forward to our next safari with them in Serengeti in the near future .

Caring, dedicated and very knowledgeable
Picked us up on time and Arrived with a big kind smile and energy ready for our adventure
Personalised water bottles were a nice touch and a salute to sustainability
Great sturdy truck which was going to be our vehicle for the next 3 days and this needed to be clean, safe and comfortable
Knew the parks and best way to maximise the days and also amazing ability to spot out animals and position us to see them perfectly
We picked the hotels but overall safaris, food and our guide would equal great value for money!
Highly recommend Mazingira
Thank you for making it an amazing first safari for me.

Excellent experience from start to finish
Truly an experience of a lifetime! Booked the safari last minute as it was the end of the low season and I was already in Zanzibar. We dealt with Jahari during the booking process and from start to finish I could not have asked for a better experience. Johari answered any and every question we had in a timely and very professional manner. I had requested Leo as our guide (after reading previous reviews) and believe me he did not disappoint. You could tell he loved what he did and took great pride in it. We were able to observe all of the big 5 Every other animal, creature, tree and bird we came across, Leo took the time to explain all the characteristics to us in detail. This definitely was a dream come true. Keep up the great work guys

Awesome
From start to finish it was a truly a lifetime experience. Jojo was accommodating and explained our options and wanted to know if we required anything extra...dietary etc..
Leo our tour guide was professional, knowledgeable and always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. Can't say enough about Leo. Thank you so much. The resorts were unique and beautiful and fully accommodating minus alcoholic drinks. Wasn't a big deal we were pretty tired after a long day on safari. Overall Can't say enough about how much we loved our experience..Thank you....

Journey of our Livetimes!
What a Journey! We made the first part of our honeymoon with Mazingira Safari and had the experience of our lives. The contact with Johari was very good from the beginning, she is very nice and made as a custom tour through 3 different national parks. The accommodations the Company picked were outstanding beautiful and clean, we loved every Single minute of our stay. In difference to other companies where we requested an offer, Johari was the nicest one of all competitors and answered very quick and respectfully. Our driver, Thom, was outstanding friendly and is very experienced. He told us things about the animals, what they‘re going to do or where they will walk before it Even happend. Only because of His Knowledge and Patience we were able to See and capture the Most amazing photos and memories during our Trip. Thom also waited for More situations, when other drivers in the Park has leaved the scene, so Most of These amazing Moments we could enjoy Even alone or with maybe 1 or 2 other Cars. Thom knows everything about animals and the environment - ask him everything, he can always give you a detailed answer. His goal was to Start as strangers and end as friends, he sure achieved this goal. Also, he made this journey unforgettable. I can honestly recommend this company!
(P.s.: We’re germans and booked directly from germany without any problems. We always felt safe, secure and respected)

Mazingira was really willing to make me happy!
We have been on 7 safaris before, so we have lots of experience about different safari organizers. This time we first climbed Kilimanjaro, then took a safari at Serengeti & Ngorongoro.
It was easy to plan safari with Mazingira, and all my questions were quickly replied. Despite all my questions I did not feel myself being difficoult at any moment.
I forgot to ask beforehand which car we would get, so I was pleasently surprised to have a really big Landcruiser for just two of us.
Our guide Leonard was very relaxed, experienced and reliable. He seemed easily find animals we wanted to see, and was good finding right spots for photography. He also made lodges to notice my vegetarian diet, and finally lunch food (boxes) was very good. I recommend to demand good quality from all kitchens, in Tanzania they can make really nice vegetarian food If asked.

Excellent in every sense!!!
We booked our holiday with a lot excitement and also a bit of apprehension as it our first trip to Africa. We had a wonderful experience from each member of the team,Ms Johari Msangi travel advisor ,Leonard our safari guide and the boss Jacob Mazingira.
We visited Tarangire, Olduvai museum, Ngorongoro and Serengeti.
Ngorongoro is a magical place where you see animals so close, the highlights were watching Rhinos and flamingos.
Serengeti is so vast and truly amazing, lots animals everywhere , lions, herds of elephants, zebras , hyenas, buffaloes , giraffes , baboons , hippos.
Wildebeest migration is truly an unimaginable spectacle!!!!!
We were lucky to watch a leopard eating it’s prey on the top of a tree and Cheetahs so close.
Balloon safari was fantastic!!!!
Travel lodges were very good.
We managed to do so many things in 9 days and our guide Leonard played big role in achieving that!!
