Family of 6 Safari.
Amazing experience of seeing animals close up and roaming so freely. Frank was a great guide and driver. He was caring throughout and was very knowledgeable, especially about birds.
The African landscapes of animals, earth and sky were very memorable.

Fantastic, Perfect, Lovely Trip In Tanzania
Let me start out by saying that finding a company to handle your Kilimanjaro trek and safari can be truly overwhelming and scary. I mean, you’re spending a lot of money and you don’t want to have any surprises. I can tell you without a doubt, Viola Tours & Travel is 100% the company you should work with – for their professionalism, their above-and-beyond customer service, and their transparency. They handle almost everything for you besides a few things such as, traveler’s insurance and your visa, so you can leave the stress behind.
Trip: honeymoon / private tour / comfort level / Kilimanjaro trek + safari (Tanzania)
When we arrived in Kilimanjaro, we stayed at the Karama Lodge the night before heading out on our trek. It was such a beautiful nature lodge, and I had one of the best massages of my life there! The food was exquisite, and the staff was very attentive. I loved the resident monkeys and cats that came to visit as we walked the grounds

Best Kilimanjaro hiking
Everything was fine, great guide William and his team tried their best! Excellent acclimatization schedule, William speaks English very good and told us a lot of interesting information about Kilimanjaro and Tanzania during our hiking. William and his team provide very good service and took care about us whole time! The only one thing we want to improve - the waiter should learn English.

6 day Tanzania safari
We had recently gone on a 6 day safari with Viola tours and we couldnt have been more satisfied. From the booking stage and customisation to the actual tour, everything was handled without any problem. Violet was prompt on the email and answered any queries that came up.
For the tour itself, we had Frank, an experienced guide whose knowledge of the parks, environment and topography was really great. His spotting ability was also amazing, and often, we were hard pressed to see even with binoculars, what he had spotted with the naked eye. Apart from the animals, his knowledge of birds was also fantastic. From a sparrow to the secretary bird, he knew them all. He also found where the migration was and ensured that we saw a part of it.
The vehicle provided was also good, and we hardly felt the rough roads. Though we had a breakdown once, Frank attended to it promptly, and we were back on schedule in the least possible time.
All in all, a great experience and I would whole heartedly recommend Viola Tours.

Excellent and amazing safari experience!
Our safari with Viola Tours & Travel was more than amazing. They listen very well too our wishes and do what is possible to make it happen. Our guide was a very nice man, good company to be with, speaks very well English, has a lot of humor and, last but not least, has a lot knowledge and experience about Tanzania and the animals. He has put a lot of effort in making our trip one we never will forget. The guide is an important factor of the success of a safari, we were very happy with our guide from Viola.
The vehicle was a new and strong one with everything you need. Very safe as well.
We will definitely come back one day with Viola. They offer value for your money, arranging and guiding the whole safari. Asante sana!
Very open with their visitor
It's a perfect place where you can take your family, students to enjoy their vacation like we do.though their is some challenges we faced from airport to viola in terms of taxi I would like to keep their time towards visitors and they should add more tents and African cultures a tires like other companies under their logo VIOLA as we planned to visit on December our staying was great with a very talker tive tour guard and very humble meanwhile we very happy to tour with you guys at affordable price can't wait to travel with you guys on December again.

Honeymoon of a lifetime!
We booked our honeymoon safari through Viola Tours and it surpassed all of our expectations! We visited Lake Manyara, Serengetti NP and Ngorongoro Crater staying in 3 beautiful lodges. Our flight times weren't great but Luca and Yusuf arranged additional accommodation at the beginning and end of our safari as well as picking us up and dropping us off at the airport. They also checked in throughout the trip to make sure we were happy and were really committed to making sure we had the best time possible. Our driver Elias was friendly and full of information about all the animals, as well as having an amazing eye for spotting them! All round it was an amazing, once in a life time experience that we will never forget.
Thank you to all at Viola! (and thank you for our beautiful bracelets)
