Well organized tour that enabled us to see all of the Big 5!
5/5

We booked a Masai Mara and Serengeti tour with Tanzania Roadside. They took care of all hotel bookings and communicated the details for each day well. We had 2 different drivers, 1 in Kenya and another in Tanzania. Our Tanzanian driver, Idris, was amazing. He worked SO hard to help us see the big 5. He used his expertise to get us front row seats for a Wildebeest river crossing, too! Overall, combining the Masai Mara and Serengeti leaves for a lot of driving. If I was to do it again, I'd probably focus just on the Tanzanian/Serengeti side so I could make a base camp rather than moving camps often. Everyone we met along the way was so kind and I would definitely book with Tanzania Roadside again in the future!

Super professional planning and implementation
5/5

We had booked a 4-day safari in Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater. This included 2 domestic flights to and from Zanzibar with hotel transfer. Everything went to our complete satisfaction. The selection of lodges was perfect for us. Thank you very much for that.

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.

Wonderful service and itinerary
5/5

We are a group of 18 friends and Tanzania Roadside Expedition provided excellent service from the moment we reached out to them till we arrived home. The guides esp. Justin and Geoege put in all their efforts to show us what safari provided during the time we were there. We saw wildebeests crossing twice, adult and baby leopards, black rhino, hippos, cheetahs, lions many times and many others. It was an amazing lifetime experience. ALL of us were happy with the service and will recommend it to our friends without any hesitation.

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!

Excellent Tour to Fullfil Bucket List Dream of African Safari
5/5

This was a bucket list trip, and it was amazing. Patrick was our guide, and he was awesome. He knew so much about animals and their behavior, plants, and trees. We would tell him something we wanted to see, and it was like he ordered it up for us. He knew exactly where to go with the jeep to get the best view even in a crowd of jeeps.

We saw a cheetah resting beside the road in the shade. It got up, walked through the field to stand on a termite mound posing for pictures and looking for prey. Within minutes it chased down and killed a Thomson’s Gazelle. We saw lions mating and two lions work together to make a kill. It was amazing to see the circle of life with these animals. We saw cheetahs, leopards, elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, hyenas, jackals, gazelles, buffalo, hippos, wildebeest, ostrich, crocodile, baboons, blue monkeys, mongoose, dik-dik, waterbuck, snake and a monitor. It is so beautiful to see these animals in their habit than in a zoo.

We really enjoyed our accommodations, especially the Maramboi Tented Lodge and Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge. I have to say I was not really thrilled about staying in a tent before the trip. It turns out they were our favorite, and we slept so well those nights. You felt like you were sleeping in nature but in luxury. The outdoor shower at Kubu Kubu Tented Lodge was a nice with a view of the Serengeti landscape.

The roads are dirt and sand with ruts and rocks within the parks and driving to the Serengeti. We had a flat tire after traveling on a very rocky portion of road. Patrick had the tire changed in no time, and we were back on the road. We saw many jeeps with flat tires along the way. It was all part of the experience.

We highly recommend Tanzania Roadside Expeditions 8 Days Safari Tarangire Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro tour. If you want a great guide, ask for Patrick. He will take care of you and your family. You will go home with many great memories.

Local and family-owned Company that provides very good service
5/5

We booked the tour with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions based on a recommendation of a German friend. In total we are very happy with the decision to select this tour operator. We did three tours: one day hike at Kilimanjaro, 7 days of safari and a guided tour through Stone Town. All three Guides we had were very experienced and open-minded. Especially during safari we felt very safe due to the driving of our guide Laurian.

As communication with the local manager is via WhatsApp, we recommend to don‘t hesitate to ask as many questions as you have in particular if something is unclear. Paul is happy to adjust the journey until it fits in with your budget and your wishes.

All in all we can highly recommend to book with Tanzania Roadside Experience.
