A dream becoming realitey!
5/5

This experience was increadible!! More than I could ever ask for!
When we landed in the airport Michael was waiting for us outside with a big smile and warm hugs. He fixed with our luggage and had water already prepared for us in the car (the whole 12 days trip was filled with these small beautiful details).
While he drew us to the first hotel that night, he told us about the country and answered all the questions we had. Since we were a group of Spanish speaking people, he fixed a Spanish speaking guide for us, that he made sure was amazing, which he really was! James Ringo.
The whole safari experience was incredible! We saw everything we wished to see! All the big 5 plus the rest of the wild life you only thought you would see in TV.
All the hotels that Michael had arranged for us were perfect with delicious food and top quality service.
We felt safe and extremely happy during the whole trip!
Michael kept in touch with us all the time to make sure we were doing fine.
If it was possible to rate cape dog safari with 6 stars, I would have done so!
Amazing, amazing, amazing!
I strongly reccomend you to choose Cape dog safari if you're going for a safari in Tanzania!

Magical experience!!!!
5/5

This was with out a doubt the best Family trip ever! I emphasize the word family because Michael Massonda and Cape dogs Safaris became part of our family or they made us feel part of theirs with their infinite attentions and hospitality! They put together for us the perfect combination of places and people for us to explore in the most exciting way possible all the wonders Tanzania has to offer! We take back home with us the most beautiful memories that we will forever treasure, and a true friend: the cape dogs safari family :) !!

Excellent service, amazing experience!
5/5

We got a safari for 7 people from December 29 to January 10, and we had the experience of our lives. In the first park, Serengeti, we saw most of the animals, was incredible to ride from one place to another for being able to see the action. After Serengeti we go to Ndutu where was also beautiful experience since the cars can get close to the animals, later we got to Ngorongoro where we where able to see the black Rinocerous that was the 5 big missing for us...we ended our experience in the elephant paradise of Tarangire with the great landscapes full of Baobab trees. I truly recommend Cape Dog Safaris and Michael Masonda for the Tanzania ride.

Beautiful and memorable trip!
5/5

Our trip with Michael was unbelievable - his knowledge of the flora and fauna was so deep, his respect for the conversation of the system so inspiring that we were incredibly touched and left feeling we had learned so much from a great master. We were very well looked after every day and our vehicle was great for photography. It was comfortable and clean and Michael ensured we were catered for from having ice cold water, snacks and battery chargers! Our itinerary was perfect and he listened to what we wanted to see and do advising us and ensuring we were able to view all wildlife. Michael seemed to know of the best viewing spots often bringing us to secluded aress where he knew the animals would be! We were so lucky to have such a tailored and amazing experience!

Michael Massonda was an excellent guide
5/5

Michael Massonda was an excellent guide for me and my family. Together with my father, brother, sister, brother's wife, and sister's boyfriend, I greatly appreciated Michael's driving skill, his extensive commentary about the wildlife around us, and his very genial company both in the landcruiser, and during the meals that we invited him to join. This was all particularly amazing in view of the personal tragedy that had befallen him just before we arrived (a death in his family). I will always remember this trip to the Serengeti fondly, and Michael Massonda deserves most of the credit for that. Thank you very much, Michael!

Great 3 Day Safari
5/5

I went on a great 3 - day Safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Mayara that was personally organized on a very short notice by the owner of Cape Dog Safaris - Michael Massonda and operated by their local partners Africa VIP Travels in Arusha. Despite the short notice everything was organized excellently and I had a great experience.

You would be more than satisfied with the great assistant of their work. I can't ask for more from them. Do contact them if you are TV crew just like myself.

Amazing Safari and Tanzanian Adventure!
5/5

Cape Dog Safari provides a very personal unique experience! Michael goes above and beyond to ensure that he meets the needs of his clients for the ultimate adventure. His knowledge of the wildlife, culture, and people made our trip to Ngorongoro a bucket list check mark complete. He encourages his clients to enjoy the splendor of the environment and beauty of crater without rushing thru the experience. We watched a pack of elephants saunter across the crater and passed within feet our jeep! Baby zebra, hyenas chasing water buffalo, wildebeest, rhino's and much more! Michaels personally worked to reschedule our trip and accommodate flight delays. It was truly a pleasure to work with him. Can't wait for our next time in Tanzania!
