Wonderful safari in Tanzania
We have just returned from a magnificent five day safari in Tanzania (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Manyara) organized by Tanke Tours.
Caroline perfectly managed the reservations in lodges corresponding to our wishes. She remained available throughout the period of the Covid crisis to inform us of the situation and give us useful advice. All health precautions were taken during this stay.
This trip was unforgettable, especially thanks to our guide Joseph, who works with the local operator Mama Savana with whom Tanke Tours collaborates. Joseph knows to perfection the territory, its fauna and flora. Always attentive to adults and children alike, it is a pleasure to share his passion.
We wholeheartedly recommend this experience.

Fantastic experience organized by a professional tour operator.
Based on a good experience review from one of my collegues, we decided to book a safari with Tanke Tours. We went for a 8 days experience in Amboseli - Tsavo West and Tsavo East.
Caroline is very professional and a kind lady. The planning was discussed several months before travelling and Caroline was very flexibel for changes in program and lodges. All the lodges were (very) good of quality (accomodation and food). Our driver was exeptional and also flexible in changing the daily program (rest - game drives - ...). The program was intensive, but gave us a incredible experience of safari in Kenya with wonderfull nature/landscapes and very kind people. We had also the luck to see almost all the animals we wanted (lions, cheetah, leopard and much more).
We fully recommend Tank Tours! Thanks Caroline, for this amazing experience!

Excellent safari, prompt service
Caroline was very prompt with all her replies and professional. She found an excellent safari to fit my budget. We went to Arusha NP, Manyara NP, Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro, Serengeti Central and North. Over 9 days and a bit. Upon my request, she got me a very experienced guide Allen, who was excellent. We enjoyed our time thoroughly. The hotels chosen were in nature and excellent in standard. The itinerary was just what I wanted. Thank you Caroline and Tanke Tours.

Very professional and organized.
My wife and I were visiting our friends in Nakuru last Summer. We heard good things about Tanke Safaris from a British couple who were familiar with the company. Despite our tight schedule and last minute booking,
Tanke lived up to our expectations. Caroline welcomed us like old friends and was very helpful. She really went out of her way to address our concerns and assuage some of our fears.
Our driver, Ole Tito (Mr. Titus) was very professional and well prepared. He was knowledgeable and answered our questions respectfully . Despite some bumpy roads in Massai Mara and Nakuru, his expertise and professional demeanor, not to mention his knowledge of English made our trip exception and worthwhile.
Highly recommend.

Great Service
Before we booked, Caroline answered all our questions very clearly and quickly.
We arrived in Nairobi 24 hours late, as a result of a flight delay. We assumed that this would mean we lost the first day of our safari but on her own initiative Caroline rebooked all our accommodation one day on so we in fact had a full tour. Above and beyond the call of duty!
Warmly recommended.
Ken Dickinson.

Safari Hakuna Matata
We strongly recommend Tanke Tours & safaris service. My family and me (2 adults and 2 children) decided to use Tanke tours service after perfect opinions in internet. We took the our chance and we won wonderful time in Kenia under perfect supervision of Caroline Nduku. We've been traveling from Nairobi to Maasai Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo West, Tsavo East, Mombasa and finally Diani under carful care of Lucky, our safari driver. We had great time together during 8 days of safari game rides. Additionally, Caroline organized for us a week stay in very nice hotel in Diani. Everything went well and according to our tour plan. There were no problems with advance payments that we made by internet according to the safari contract.
We had made with Caroline the arrangements of safari plan details by internet and whatsapp few months before we arrived to Kenya. If you are staying in any Diani hotel, you can make the arrangements of safari personally with Caroline too. Nevertheless I would recommend to make safari plan earlier, via internet.

Wonderful safari, reliable tour operator, lifelong experience !
I strongly recommend to pick Tanke tours for your guidance in Kenya. Carol is a very friendly lady, well informed and always ready to answer any question you have. She prepared tour specifically up to our wishes. First part was 4 day tour including 2 days in Masai Mara, 1 day in Lake Nakuru and the last day she helped us organize meeting with our sponsored child far from touristic places and national parks. What more, she even accompanied us on this trip. Second safari started in Diani beach and then we had 2 days in Tsavo (east and west) and 2 days in Amboseli. Everything was perfectly arranged including pick up at the airport or buying us the train ticket from Nairobi to Mombasa. Carol was always there when we needed (on mobile or whatsap). Tanke tours drivers were always on time, communicative and the safari was fun in their company.

Everything as promised. Close to perfect
Caroline is a lovely lady that really stands for her safari's. She very easy to approach by mail or whatsapp. She is patient and honest. Also interested in how your trip was. We booked 3 trips and we can highly recommand it to everyone to let Caroline arrange your tours. Our driver/guide Lucky is a fantastic animal spotter. He is funny and he knows all kind of facts.
Thanks again Caroline and Lucky.
