Wonderful experience
We experienced a wonderful 8 day Safari (based on Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Great Migration, Ngorongoro offer) with Tansania Roadside Expeditions.
Paul was very helpful, friendly and fast when communicating during preparation of the trip. He was very open to adapt and extend the itinerary to make this Safari very individual and meeting our wishes.
Then, upon arrival to the end, everything went smooth and to our full satisfaction,
Ezekiel was not only a very knowledgable guide who knew how to "find" the animals but also became a friend to us on this trip.
Thanks to Paul and Ezekiel for having made this trip possible !
We can highly reccomend this company !!

Izeikiel (and Anocely) were perfection, and we will recommend them to anyone and everyone.
Start to finish the experience was executed perfectly. Paul was attentive to our needs and was fast to respond to itinerary changes and date changes and was warm and hospitable.
We were lucky to have Izeikiel as our guide and Anocely join us as well. Start to finish they were informative and eager for us to have the best experience. We always felt cared for and it felt like a team of friends rather than two strangers. Every detail of the trip was made special and catered to our dream trip. On day one we saw a leopard and by the time we left we were lucky to see all top five (save the rhino). The trip was so special that we are planning to go back and do it all over again with the same team (and this time see a rhino:). Don’t hesitate to book with Roadside. Was a trip we will never forget.

Very responsive and great customer service
Paul was very attentive during our communcations by email. I asked for a lot of info upfront and he was always happy to reply quickly with good advices. They were very flexible and taylored the itinerary of our trip as we wanted.
I did a 10-day safari trip with my new-wed. Our driver James was very kind and respectful. He knew all the reserves by heart and could find animals swiftly. We saw the big 5 thanks to his good game-tracing skills. He knew how ro fulfil tourists needs and also let us some space when we needed it. His driving skills were excellent, we never felt unsafe.
I really recommend Roadside Expeditions.

Our tour operators Ken, Emanuel and William were very knowledgeable, entertaining, and awesome.
We were supposed to go on this trip last year, but had to cancel due to Covid. We already paid 20% and were a bit apprehensive whether we'd be able to reschedule our trip. We communicated with Paul and he assured us we could reschedule to go at any time. This summer we decided to go for it since things in East Africa seemed pretty good and we were vaccinated. Paul was very informative and helpful when I tried to organize the trip answering my numerous emails very promptly. When we landed we were pleasantly surprised that our guides have been vaccinated! We began the trip with Ken as our guide in Kenya. We visited lake Naivasha, and then Masai Mara game reserve for several days. Ken was extremely knowledgeable, he knew the name of every animal and bird we encountered. He also had an uncanny ability to find the animals! we would always be the first ones on the scene before all the other jeeps. We were even able to see an immediate aftermath of a lioness hunting a wildebeest. Once we got to the border with Tanzania Ken seamlessly transferred us to into the care of our Tanzanian guide Emanuel who drove us to the Serengeti. We spent a few days in Serengeti which was amazing! Emanuel was just as knowledgeable as Ken, and he also was a big story teller about the culture in Tanzania. He had a little book with some Swahili words and expressions and by the end of 5 days we could say a few of them :). The accommodations in Serengeti were absolutely amazing. It is called tent camping but I've never seen a tent quite like that. The tent had several rooms, a proper shower and bathroom. You could hear and sometimes see the animals right outside the tent. We visited the Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara national park and Tarangire. All the parks were amazing in their own way with different birds, animals and flora. From the plains of Serengeti to woods in Tarangire. we then crossed back to Kenya where Ken picked us up at the border and drove to Amboseli national park. Again the accommodations were incredible! Because of Covid we had to get tested before our flight back which was arranged for us and was quick and painless. We stayed an extra day in Nairobi where our guide William took us to Elephant orphanage, giraffe center and a museum. Overall it was an amazing experience made really easy since all the planning once we got there was done for us. I highly recommend Tanzania Roadside Expeditions and in particular their guides Ken, Emanuel and William!

Great professional team
We started in Nairobi and went for safari in Masai Mara, Serengetti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. Amazing honeymoon!!! South of Serengeti was not that exiting this time of the year, Tarangire was excellent to end, a beautiful region and lots of elephants.
Last week we stay in Zanzibar, relaxing island with good vibes.

Amazing experience with Roadside
We read many of the reviews written here by previous travellers and decided to go with Roadside. I will tell you this: the reviews are all TRUE! From the very beginning Paul was attentive and replied to our needs in an excellent manner and rapidly. We ended up making a 7 days, 6 nights Safari and the praise for each of the people we met during our adventures won't never be enough.
I would recommend anyone to go now and live a lifetime experience, probably due to COVID there is not much tours on the parks so you will have a better, very intimate tour... our tour guide, Fred has an incredible eagle sight and we could see all the things we imagined, and more.

Paul was very attentive to our needs before going especially with covid details
Paul set up a great trip for us on our first time to Africa. He was very attentive to our needs and questions before arriving especially with Covid requirements
On the safari Justin our guide was awesome. We saw the big 5, cheetahs, a lion hunt. I am not sure we missed anything. The accommodations were amazing. Maramboi tented lodge is an experience and the Melia chain of hotels were first class.
I would highly recommend Paul and his company. I thought it was a class act he came to the hotel the first night to meet us in person and go over everything anc introduce Justin

AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH TANZANIA ROADSIDE EXPEDITION
We had such a great lifetime. The tour was very interesting, we visited several national parks (Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater), we had the chance to cross lots of lions, leopards, serval cats, tones of gnous and zebras during the great migration, hippos, elephants and so on.
Justin our guide was very nice, flexible and understanding. He has an amazing knowledge of the african wildlife. We became like friends. He's able to answer to any question. Moreover he gave us the opportunity of visiting a Maasai village.
Paul the owner of the company is really professional and helping for any inquiries we made (payment, choice of the hotels ...)
The hotels proposed by the company were absolutely perfect. (Lake Manyara Serena Lodge, Four Seasons Serengeti, Oldeani Mountai Lodge, and Gran Melia). All the accomodations were comfortable and each hotel provided us meals for lunching during the game drive, snacks, drinks, meals.
We highly recommand them if you plan to book a tour in Tanzania. For sure we will go back there with them.
Thanks Paul & Justin for this incredible experience that we will never forget !
