Good safari but unfriendly guide
Safari Right now had good communication before my trip, we had emailed each other a few times to work out an itinerary. They had been personally recommended by a friend living in Tanzania and felt very trustworthy from the start, important as I was travelling as a lone female. The safari itself was amazing and thoroughly recommended, I saw so many incredible animals very close up. I chose a 1:1 personal safari to Manyara
and Ngorongoro crater and the price was competitive.
There were a few criticisms though:
1) The day before the safari I was supposed to have a briefing with the guide, but that didn't happen. This meant I didn't really know what to pack and didn't have a chance to discuss any dietary preferences for the lunchbox/dinner.
2) There was also a last minute swap of guide, that I didn't know about until the new guide (Chale) turned up to collect me. Unfortunately Chale was quite unfriendly and made me feel a bit awkward during the drive and dinner, although he did have a good knowledge of the animals.
3) I recommend double checking exactly what is provided. I had decided to camp and the tent/bedding was supposed to be provided but there were no sheets, pillows or sleeping bag. Take a torch, the campsite is very dark at night and inside the tent!
4) The itinerary said there would be a full day’s game drive on the second day, but the driver actually left at about 1.30 shortly after lunch to visit tourist shops, which was disappointing.

Great Affordable Safari
Safari Right Now organized my Safari trip around Tanzania starting in Arusha including Seregeti and Ngorongoro in 2015. The trip was well organized, very affordable and the team reachable for questions any time during the trip. The driver was very knowledgeable and we managed to see the big five (animals). Luckily, we went off season and the parks were almost empty. I can highly recommend the service and prices of Safari Right Now.

Most Spectacular Safari
It was unbelievably amazing. The driver was super fun, the accommodation was great (picked to suit our needs) and most of all the Safari was incredible. I had never been so close to animals, you feel so free when your surrounded by them. Whatever you want Safari Right Now has it. Im so glad I picked them, i would definitely recommend them.

Amazing Photo Oppurtunities, Awesome Adventure
Thrilling experience never been that close to wild animals and had such a connection with them. The traveling was awesome both the driver and CEO Mike were amazing, all the people that worked in this company are really caring and generous, they love seeing smiles on your face. The food was heavenly and the sites looked unreal. Your drivers will be willing to get that bit closer for a perfect photo. Be sure to buy the full package, it's so worth it. P.S. most awesome CEO I've ever been in touch with.

A perfect trip! Great organization and team
My friend and I booked here since they offered us a great price and it was the BEST thing we could do!
We still had such an amazing time and in fact the low budget option made it even more authentic to us.
We experienced everything we were promised. We saw all the Big 5 and had some elephants super near the car! Overwhelming. The driver gave much effort in giving us a great trip.
The whole team was actually very kind.. it was almost like being with friends!
Absolutely recommendable
