Life won't be complete without a Cape Dog Safari
Just like anyone who has watched documentaries on TV, I've always wanted to just crawl inside the TV and pop out into the other side to see everything in real life. Cape Dog Safaris was able to bring my dream into reality. I was able to see more animals with them than when I watched the Lion King. Aside from the standard animals like zebras and gazelles, we were able to see the famous wildebeest crossing, a lion kill and spot the elusive leopard in our first 2 days alone! I learned a bonanza of knowledge from how to track animals to why they behave the way they do. Then we'd end the day in fantastic mobile tents that never failed to serve me great sunset cocktails followed by a hot shower after dinner. I need to go back!

It's an adventure that I will never forget
It's a bit scary to travel such a far distance and being out of my element. I was completely vulnerable having put my trust in the hands of Michael. Having said this, Michael is absolutely a trust worthy man. He is a trailblazer and leader. Where many tours were rushing around chasing the pride, Michael, guided us to spots where we enjoyed exclusive experiences with a variety of animals. Nothing can quite explain the thrill of viewing a Cheetah just 10 feet from the Vechicle or observering Elephants feed from the trees. Michael, listens well and helps you decide your agenda before you arrive. The accommodation are top notch, this also depends on what you want. The experience is quite different in the bush than at the Nogorogoro crater lodge. My wife and I traveled in the off season. Sure, it was wet but, we saw plenty of animals and avoided the crowds of tours. Someday, we will return to Africa and I wouldn't hesitate to book a tour with Cape Dog!

Best Trip Ever
Michael and his crew are by far the most kind and welcoming operators you can find. From the very beginning when we started planning our vacation they were on top of every detail, send us info, making opportune reservations in the best places and planning our overall experience. Since the planning was done so well, our trip can easily be described as a one lifetime experience. Every detail in the trip was taken care of, every day itinerary was carefully plan to maximize our chance of experiencing great games. As a guide Michael is exceptional, he knows African wildlife profoundly and that makes the trip even richer, as you go on learning about your surroundings constantly.
I would recommend Cape Dog Safaris anytime.

Excellente organization with very professional and friendly guides
My first African safari experience was with Cape Dog Safari, and it was an excellent one. The guide was very profesional and friendly, the hotels boked by Cape Dog were very nice with excellent service, and well located. We had the opportunity to see a lot of action, the migration at Central Serengueti and the big five. It was such a great exprience that I decided to go again with my family, with Cape Dog Safari.

Best Trip So Far
I couldn't have asked for a better Safari experience than the one we had. I had the opportunity to visit Tanzania with my family last Fall. Excellent hospitality at every camp we visited, excellent food, comfortable cars, and the best tour guide! Mike made our time in Africa unforgettable. His knowledge about wild life and African culture enriched our experience even more. I have to brag that we had the chance to see the Big Five! More than our Safari tour guide Mike is now a family friend and I would recommend everyone to enjoy a Safari with Cape Dog Safaris. Hopefully we can visit Tanzania again soon!

Delightful, enriching, educaltional and fun experience
We have used Cape Dog Safaris twice and both opportunites have surpased our expectations. Michael Massonda is an excellent safari guide and works very hard to satisfy all his clients needs and wishes. Excellent service at a reasonable price. We hope we can return soon to Africa and have another wonderful experience with Cape Dog Safaris.

Excellente organization with very professional and friendly guides
I have gone to two safaris with Cape Dog Safaris, on the first one I went with my wife and another couple. On this first safari we went to several parks and to Central Serengueti, we had a great time, lot of action, the guide was very profesional and friendly, the hotels very nice with excellent service. Both couples had such a good experience that both decided to go back a year later with the rest of the family. In our case we went with our son and daughter, this time we went mainly to North Serengueti, we had the opportunity to see the river crossing, the big five, on this second safari we had another guide from Cape Dog, he was as profesional and friendly as the one we had on our first safari.
On the second safari we had an airplane maintenance problem and lost the connection, arriving one day late to Tanzania, we had god communication with Cape Dog Safari and they helped us to organize things at our arrival in order to get to the camp with no delay.
Right now we are planning to do our third safari at South Serengueti, and for sure we will do it again with Cape Dog Safari.
