Professional, attentive and passionate people with strong knowledge about Tanzania
My wife and I hired Mazingira for a 7-day safari tour as part of our honeymoon. We had a memorable experience with the company and we would definitely recommend it for any person thinking about visiting the Tanzanian national parks, especially honeymooners. They were reliable, supportive, passionate about safaris and made sure we had an amazing experience. All the meals were prepared were delicious and picked great accommodations in the national Parks. To prepare the trip, we asked several questions before arriving and we always got answers fast. During the trip, we just relaxed after seeing that Mazingira had everything under control. Special mention to Johari and Simon to make our Safari an unforgettable trip!

Super company super guide, Simon!
Mazingira how to clear website, and was very responsive from the beginning. They had answers to all of our questions about the Safari specifically and Tanzania generally. We also got a good price. Our tour guide, Simon, was exceptional. We saw all of the big five, and all the other animals we wanted to see. On multiple occasions he was the original person to spot lions, a rhino, or a leopard that no one else had yet found. He truly understands these habitats. He was also especially knowledgeable about the animals, the trees and flowers, and other general questions about Tanzania and the economy. He always arrived early and offered to stay accommodate any changes to the itinerary. He remained professional, kind, and helpful which was wonderful to have in a guide. The schedule of the tour was very clear and when we had a last minute change Mazingira adjusted the whole calendar to accommodate at no extra cost. Also they provided transport to and from the airport. Would highly highly recommend Mazingira tours and Simon specifically!
A 'once in a life time' holiday that we really want to do again!
From start to finish, our experience with Mazingira was first class. The detailed information we received in the booking process was really useful. Prior to booking, Florida answered all our questions (however silly they may have seemed!) promptly and with ample detail. She was not pushy during this time but helped us to make a clear, well-informed decision to book with them. Communication was excellent and on arrival the organisation of our trip was seamless. We were introduced to our guide via WhatsApp before our departure and when we arrived our guide, lucas, was there to greet us. He kept us informed of our itinerary and explained clearly what we would be doing each day. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the local area and wildlife was boundless and again , no question was too silly! He was fascinating and a wonderful guide to have take us through this amazing experience. We were fortunate enough to see all the wildlife we had hoped, in abundance. Every day seemingly greater than the last! The accommodation was delightfully luxurious and the carefully planned destinations enabled us to see the greatest sights in the most relaxed and beautiful surroundings
All the staff were incredibly helpful and approachable. They made our stay a delight.
When we encountered difficulties, due to our airline changing the flights, the team at mazingira once again supported us to find and reach alternative accommodation. We couldn't have asked for a greater team. It really was the holiday of a lifetime and I would recommend this company without exception.
Very professional and hardworking
We loved our tour with Mazingira Safaris and our tour guide Simon. They were very professional and punctual, and worked extremely hard over long hours to give us the best experience possible. We would definitely recommend again!

Friendly, helpful, answered all our questions in a timely manner.
Just finished a 2 day safari with Mazingira Eco Friendly safaris out to Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park. It was a beautiful experience! Jacob was very helpful setting up a safari camp for our volunteer group of 20 and stuck to our tight budget. Our guides David, Tom, and Daniel were knowledgeable, happy, and fun to be around! Would definitely recommend Mazingira and plan to travel with Mazingira again in the future.

Went above and beyond to help up have an excellent honeymoon experience
Our guide, Simon, was extremely friendly and a wonderful help. He made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy a spectacular honeymoon, and that we saw incredible animals. The organisational staff were excellent too and great at communicating with us.

Amazing 10-Day Safari!
We are SO happy we entrusted this once-in-a-lifetime experience to Mazingira Safaris. After communicating with 5 different tour companies we went with Mazingira. On top of being the most cost-effective, they checked all of the boxes... In the end, we turned all facets of the Safari planning to them and just showed up in Tanzania ready for adventure.
Their equipment was great the guides were SUPER knowledgeable. They knew the areas very well and taught us so much about the animals, history, and culture of Tanzania. I recently got into birding and over the course of 10 days, Lucas (our guide) helped me identify more than 100 new species.
They went above and beyond when my daughter left her prized stuffed animal at a lodge. They contacted the lodge and gave it to a pilot of one of the bush flights. It made it to Arusha before we even got there. Thank you for making this a trip we will never forget!
We are a family of 5 from Utah. At the time of our Safari, our kids were 12, 9, and 7. But we traveled with a larger (extended family group of 21) so this was a big group which is extra difficult to plan for.
