well-organised safari experience
4/5

Abraham was very helpful in planning our trip. He planned an individual trip for us and met our wishes and ideas perfectly. The chosen accommodation were really nice and we were really happy. When we arrived in Tansania he picked us up from the airport and brought us to our first accomodation.
On our 7 day safari trip (including the climbing of Ol Doinyo Lengai) everything worked out well. We went to Tarangire, Lake Natron, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Our driver Mashaka had a lot of knowledge about the nature and animals. He knew some outlying and not much frequented places and we were able to see animals without other masses. The only thing to criticise is the state of the safari jeep - no belt, no headrest and in general really old. Compared to the jeeps of other safari companys the jeep of african travel tour looked a bit shabby.
All in all we can really recommend african travel tour - outstanding service for an adequate price.

Well organized and customer oriented
4/5

Me and my family did a two day Safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro National Park. Since African Travel Tour is a very small organization I was directly in contact with the managing director and owner Abraham Akyoo. The communication with him was very smooth and he organized everything we requested. Another plus was the price-service ratio. African Travel Tour offered the best price because they organize shared Safaris which is more fun anyhow, because you get to know people and you are not alone in a big car. One minus, which all the agencies do, they bring you to these fancy tourist shops where you can buy highly priced crafts which usually cost a portion of it. Otherwise me and my family were happy to have booked our trip through African Travel Tour.

Holiday of a lifetime. Best experience!
5/5

Abraham's company offers excellent value for money and a really personalised service. Attentive and reassuring he made it so easy for us to book and he listened to what we wanted as well as sorting out our ongoing stay in Zanzibar.
The accommodation he sourced was gorgeous and the food was out of this world. Lovely packed lunch every day and we were greeted with hot towels, drinks and beautiful food every night.
Our guide Ayubu deserves some kind of medal for his knowledge. He has a vast knowledge of the area and was able to tell us absolutely everything about everything!
These guys felt like family at the end of our trip and I cannot recommend them enough. Reliable, flexible - the best.

Fantastic experience
5/5

Fantastic experience. We were taken to and from the airport by transportation. Everything was well-organized and adaptable. In difficult times, the guide was always exceedingly thoughtful, kind, and sympathetic. Furthermore, we were constantly treated with such kindness and consideration by Vinod and the other porter! We shall always treasure them in our hearts!

Amazing and professional
5/5

My boyfriend and me we had a wonderful time in Tanzania! We had 4 nights 5 days safari we saw all the animals, including the rhinos and leopards and cheetahs and lions. Everything!! Then we moved to Zanzibar and relaxed there for other 4 days.

The Safari was amazing, is tiring because you spend all the day in the Jeep looking around for any kind of animals. The alarm is early morning like 7, then breakfast and and 7;30/8;00 you leave from your lodge and start the game driving.
Is a unique experience and our guide Ben, coordinated with Abraham exceeded our expectations. Do not forget to visit ngorongoro crater, our absolutely favourite place for safari. It looks like Jurassic park! It’s stunning.
Abraham organised everything in details and even when we had some problems with the hotels we managed to solve it right away with great professionalism.
Ben is amazing he speaks a very good Italian and English and he’s very safe and diligent driver which is very important during the safari.

We didn’t expect to see so many animals and so much vegetation.
Tanzania is just amazing.
I suggest you this tour to stay on a relative quite good budget and enjoy the experience.

We slept in migombani camp ( favourite location and great food), osinon lodge inside the Serengeti national park ( we heard lions and Ienas during the night is was amazing) and then in Zanzibar we stayed at the blue reef fishing lodge and bungalow ( the food is terrific, such a good fish and so tasty recipes).
We never had problems actually the staff was very helpful everywhere. Remember that you’re in Africa so do not expect everything to be like in a city!

In zanzibar su recommend to join the dolphins tour if you’re comfortable with snorkelling a bit in the sea.
Here attached many pictures of our tour.

We want to thank Abraham for the great service and organisation. He made our dream come true! Thank you Abraham and hope to see you soon for another amazing safari!

And thank you Ben for staying with us during the safari and drive us everywhere!

This tour in simple word: professional, amazing and comfortable.

Hope to see you soon!

Must visit when you are in Tanzania/Zanzibar! Great organization!
5/5

Pick-up/travel was greatly arranged. Got a pick up from the hotel and was brought to the airport in time. After the flight from Zanzibar to Tanzania we immediately stepped into the Land Rover. It was a comfortable car with no seats in the middle so everyone was able to sit on the outside of the car (which is better for the view). Our tour guide could give us a lot of information about the environment and animals which was really nice. The food and drinks that were offered were also good. Had the best day!

Africa …. A dream that came true … thanks To Abraham and Mark from African Travel Tour.
5/5

I have been lucky to find Abraham while I was looking for a local tour operator to organize a tailored tour for my family and my friends. Abraham has helped me since the beginning to organise my tour, attentively responding to all my needs and “unusual request”. He has been patient, responding to every need I had, always present and comprehensive, adapting his proposal to all my changes and needs and he captured my attention thanks to his wonderful emphatic attitude, helping me in suggesting the best options and answering to all my questions. He did a wonderful job, our experience has been unforgettable and every detail discussed and planned has been exactly as organised and imagined, if not even better. Mark, our guide/driver has been equally attentive to our needs and incredibly helpful! He was extremely fine and patient and also very kind and collaborative in the research of every type of wild beasts. He made us see the most and the best of everything. At the end of the tour he has also been helpful changing the planned program in order to accomplish our “last second” requests re-organising the route to allow us to live one more day of stunning experiences. Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire, will always be in our memories thanks to Abraham and Mark’s comprehension of our needs and expectations. Tanzania is a wonderful country full of gorgeous nature, of images, colours sounds, perfumes…and I’m sure that all these experiences will last in my memories forever. Children and people and nature from Africa are worth being “lived” at least once in one’s life.. I will never forget the lion's golden eyes, the Iena’s sounds, the bushmen way of life and the experience we had there together with the Masai welcome and their children, as well as all those people I meet on the way... such as the smile of a small girl when we gave her some food and every second I spent in that wonderful country… Now, I know what “mal d’Africa” means.. and .. all this thanks to African Travel Tour, to Mark, our guide, an infaticabile, attentive and helping driver… this experience has been so perfect thanks to their collaboration and assistance. Thanks Abrham, thanks Mark! I wish you all the best!

Excellent service coordinated very well by the Managing Director Abraham J. Akyoo
5/5

Beautiful experience, visited Serengeti, Ngoro ngoro and Tarangire. We have seen, up close, all possible animals (except the leopard which, apparently, is very shy). We found ourselves in the middle of a herd of elephants very close to the matriarch and the cubs. Also seen up close are the lions with their cubs. Our driver was Marc, a very kind and helpful person who speaks excellent Italian even if he prefers English for longer explanations. It is an experience that I recommend to everyone.

A once in a lifetime trip!
5/5

We went on a 5 day safari in September with African Travel Tour with Ayubu as our guide. This was one of the most amazing experiences ever! We got to see way more than we ever thought we would. Ayubu was a great guide with really good knowledge of the parks and animals with years of experience as a park ranger. We stayed in really cool places, some of those being luxury tents in the Serengeti with animals all around us at night! I would highly recommend this trip to anyone and specifically Ayubu as a guide!

It was a great 3 days safari, we had the chance to see all the animals with our experienced tour guide Ayoubo. The management service by Abraham was fantastic, everything was well organised ( food, transport, lodge and hotel).
