Amazing vacation!
5/5

We couldn't choose a better Safari Agency. "Tanzania Roadside Expeditions" was perfect for us. Paul was always eager to answer all our questions and in a very fast way (I must say). It was like he was online all the time. :) We felt like we already have a friend, even we meet only when we get there.
We put so many questions (because for such an adventure there is a lot of logistics to set) but Paul answered very calmly to all. And the most important thing, he tried to find a solution to all our problems. Thank you, Paul, for everything! Asante sana!

Tanzania is a country that should be visited at least once in the life time (in my opinion) and if you are lucky to have Edwin to be your guide it will be perfect. Yes , you heard well: Edwin won our hearts! He is so kind, calm, friendly, sensible, patient. He also has a good heart! He is like an Encyclopedia. You will quickly understand that he is a very experienced guide. He helped us see all the things we wanted to see. You have to trust him and his abilities because he really knows what he's doing. But the most important thing it was that we felt all the time that we were in vacation with a very good friend. We will really miss you, Edwin! Nakutakia kila la heri!

About safari (it means Journey in swahili)...
We stayed 3 nights (4 days) in 3 different types of accomodation: Kudu Camp - Lodge (superb), Kati-Kati Tented Camp (best safari experience possible!) and Rhino Lodge (cosy and quiet).
The car (Toyota Land Cruiser modified) was very comfortable and very strong for those kind of roads.
Food: very good; european-american style but you find also local type of food.
Experience: fabulous! We saw all the animals and landscapes that we planned to see.
Logistics: transfer, contacts and all other things ran smoothly.

Tip: have patience and trust your guide!

Ezekiel Senkoro: exceptional, beautiful inside/out, calm, attentive to detail. Top-notch guide!
5/5

My safari adventure with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions exceeded expectations! Ezekiel Senkoro's expert guidance made our journey unforgettable. We explored the breathtaking landscapes of the Serengeti, Mara River Crossing, Ngorongoro, and the Crater, witnessing thrilling moments that will forever be etched in my memory.

The highlights of our trip included witnessing the breathtaking wildebeest crossing twice, spotting the Big Five, and seeing an astonishing 37 lions in one morning game drive. We also encountered many other incredible sights and animals up close and personal.

Ezekiel's exceptional care and expertise made our experience truly seamless. His knowledge, driving skills, and fantastic music selection catered to our every need. He ensured our safety, comfort, and entertainment throughout our journey.

This safari experience has had a lasting impact on me. I've gained a deeper appreciation for Tanzania's wildlife and conservation efforts. I've also learned valuable lessons from the Tanzanian people, including respecting land and wildlife, admiring their hard work and resilience, appreciating simplicity, and embracing sustainability.

I highly recommend Ezekiel Senkoro and Tanzania Roadside Expeditions for an unforgettable safari experience. They have created lifelong memories for me, and I'm confident they will do the same for you!

Great Plan, Great Guide-Driver & Wonderful Experience
5/5

We chose Tanzania Roadside Expeditions because the staff were so prompt, informative, patient and flexible as we were planning a nine-day Safari. We got a great guide, Laurian, who was so knowledgeable, flexible, funny and nice. One's guide is critical and we feel so lucky to have gotten Laurian as the three of us (my husband, Laurian, and I) were together for many hours.
We saw the big 5 (Lions, Elephants, Rhinos, Leopards, and Buffalos) the wildebeests crossing the Mara, three pairs of lions mating, a mama and baby leopard, and amazing birdlife, including a Kori Bustard with its necked ballooned.
We also loved the visit to two amazing tribes near Lake Eyasi -- could have spent even more time exploring around there!

The Great Wildebeest Migration - Magnificent! Unforgettable!
5/5

Our guide/driver Mr. Ezekiel Senkoro is a really seasoned professional. Though the chance of seeing all the Big 5 through this trip is likely at 50/50, but his effort of finding them is always 100%. So thankfully, we saw all the big 5, including two black rhinos, plus several times of legions of wildebeest crossing over Mara River.

The operator's response to my initial inquiry for a customized safari was swift and managed to secure one of the lodges that was in high demand.

Happy, caring, fun and a great driver!
5/5

Everything was perfect! Communication, comfort, consideration in fact we didn’t leave the park until we saw a lion … customer satisfaction! 😁👍

We live both Tanzania and Rwanda. The hot air balloon ride was another level!

Roadside were exceptionally in archival our requests and even at the last minute! Laurian made sure we had anything we needed and altered eating venues at our request. Just perfect!

One thing about Tanzania and Rwanda driving time distance is it is a lot longer than what google maps says! We were expecting a 20 minute drive (was 1 hr) ; 2.5hr (was 5hrs) the longest drive ended up being 7 hrs. So be prepared for the slower roads especially in Rwanda!

Lifetime experience and best Safari trip

We had a wonderful time during our 12 days Migration Safari Zanzibar trip. George and his team did an excellent job. They are professional, very knowledgeable and worked very hard to make our trip as pleasant as possible. We highly recommend their services to anyone who likes to explore Tanzania.

Very professional and reliable, transparent communication, and respectful to the animals
5/5

We enjoyed a 8-day trip with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions and saw not only the Big 5 but a lot of other animals and the beautiful nature. Everything worked as described, incl. payment, hotel reservations and airport transfers. There were some changes regarding the hotels but we were actively informed before our trip started and the alternative hotels were even better than the initial ones. Really appreciated the transparency.

If James is your driver, you are lucky. He is very experienced and respectful to the animals.

If we go back to Tanzania, we will definitely book another tour with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions.

Great Tour Experience
5/5

We had an experience of a lifetime exploring the Serengeti, and more, with our expert guide and friend Justin! His background in ecology brought an expertise that was both unexpected and unparalleled. While observing all of the fascinating wildlife, including the elusive Black Rhino and thrilling Wildebeest Migration were spectacular, it was Justin's warmth and personality that will make this adventure memorable. Tanzania Roadside Expeditions made everything first class! I'm sure there are many choices when when planning your Safari, but ask for Justin - you will be glad you did!
