Trip of a Lifetime!
As for communications I really made TravelPartners work. This trip's planning began ten months before the actual safari. Every one of my MANY questions was answered! As it turned out the online itinerary for the 10 day photograhic safari was indeed a good plan! Yes, this trip of a lifetime exceeded expectations! We saw the Big 5, including 8 cheetahs! Our guide was terrific in all ways! For him it was more than a job! It is a big part of his life. Not everything was perfect, but what's a safari without a vehicle breakdown or time spent digging out of the mud?! We traveled almost 1000 miles, most of which on stomach settling roads, but there was something new on them around every corner! The trip really was magical! Besides the amazing scenery and wildlife, the relationships with hospitality and indigenous people were so rich! Each lodge had tremendous service, and the tented camps gave you an amazing audio experience at night! Lion growls anyone? Hopeful to make a return trip in a few years! We felt that our trip planner at TravelPartners really went out of her way to ensure that we would have a great experience! And we did! Praise the Lord!

I really felt like I was among friends!!!
Is over passed my expectations and specially since I was by my own, I could experience in a more individual way, and the best thing...we got the BIG FIVE. amazing experience and great people.

Belen went above and beyond to accommodate me even when i had to do last minute changes.
Belen always communicated very quickly and was able to make last minute changes for me even when I ended up not needing to add more people to my group. The accommodations were very generous and the flexibility my tour guide had for me was amazing. The knowledge my guide had about the different parks of Tanzania and the history of Tanzania truly made it a very memorable experience. I would definitely recommend this company for organizing any safari.

Great time with a great guide!
We, a family of 4, did a 5 day safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongro crater and lastly a Maasai Village. During our first day we were briefed by Gloria and picked up at our hotel in Arusha by our guide Mbonea. The vehicle was very clean and there was a fridge full of bottled waters. The boxed lunches (usually chicken wing, an egg, sandwich, something sweet and a fruit) were very good. Mbonea was very informative and answered every question we had. He drove safely and never once did we feel uneasy. The safari itself went well and there was no issues. My dad left his GoPro back at the hotel which was about an hour and half/2 hours away. Thankful the GoPro was still at the hotel. Mbonea was about to retrieve the camera and we had the camera in our possession the next morning!! The only part I do not recommend was the Maasai village, we did not have a good experience there but it has nothing to do with Travel Partner itself but one individual in the village who said a very unnecessary comment. I will make a note that at first we were skeptical about Travel Patner as there wasn't enough reviews about the company but let me reassure that there were no issues from start to finish and I recommend them for a safari! Thank you for a great time Mbonea!

Best partners to go to Tanzania for a Safari. Amazing experience and staff.
Travel Partners made our trip the most memorable one. The trip was above our expectations. Very personal. Very friendly staff.
We met Belen and crew from Travel Partners in Arusha for a brief before the trip to do it the most personal possible and they were very flexible adapting to our request. During the trip Belen was available and responsive for all of our need taking care of us.
Finally we went to four parks, Tarangire, Manyara Lake, Ngoronomo Crater and Serengeti.
Our guide, Thomas, was with us all the days. He made the trip amazing and special. Very patient, he went above and beyond to ensure we saw the big 5, Amazing eyesight, friendly and fun. He knows the parks and the wildlife very well (We love Thomas!). We leave a e-book in a lodge and he did the impossible to find it, brought us the last day to the hotel in Arusha.
We went to four parks, Tarangire, Manyara Lake, Ngoronomo Crater and Serengeti.
They have their own accommodations (awesome safari camp in amazing locations in the bush) but they also have agreements with others lodges in park, if want to go.
Our trip was extraordinary, for anyone looking to explore Africa Travel Partners are the best.
I highly recommend Travel Partners.
Thanks again for everything.
Unforgettable beautiful experience ever.
We booked a private five days Safari and covered Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The booking was very easy and the communication went well and their operations team was so fast in responding. The tour through the three National Parks was amazing. We were lucky and saw all the 5 and the whole bunch of other wildlife animals. We chose a nice mixture of Lodges and Tented Camps. All were equipped quite well, the service was amazing and the food was also very good. During the days all of them offered Lunch Boxes which were more than enough. Our guide was fantastic! He was so funny, and well-skilled with animal behaviour, birds and fauna We had amazing and truly unforgettable days thanks to them!

Overall a great Safari.
My wife and I travelled to Tanzania last Christmas and we had a trip of a lifetime. We booked our safari as a private tour and had 11 days of Safari through Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti We flew from Serengeti to Zanzibar where our driver was waiting for us to transfer us to our Hotel. We spent a wonderful time in the Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu Lake area, Southern and Central Serengeti. We stayed at Heritage Ndutu mobile camp,an it was amazing.....the food was fantastic and the staff could not have been more accommodating and welcoming. The facilities were really good and was so exciting to hear lions at night and buffalos just outside our tent. Of course the most spectacular was to see the Great Migration, thousands of thousands of animals spread in the fields.. was incredible.
Great Safari, Greater expectations
My family and I did a 2 weeks Safari which we planned with the people of Travel Partners In Tanzania. It was a tailor made safari, since we have 2 small kids and didn’t want to drive for long hours and specific requirements for lodges camps. They literally took care of everything for us. Our jeep was new, clean and so spacious..! Our driver was so knowledgeable and kind, he really entertained us, we had so much fun. He was very sincerely attentive to our needs. We even learned some swahili.

That was an amazing trip. I recommend it to everyone who want to have a great safari.
I find your company very professional and I was very happy of your services.
The trip was great; food, activities and accommodation were perfect and if I have to do it again I wouldn' t change anything.
I also liked the way you behaved with us, people were very welcoming and helpful.

Africa experts. Great safari.
We have been to Africa before but always stayed at lodges. This time we wanted a tented camp experience and locations in the northern Serengeti for the great migration crossing the river Mara, and I can say is one of the wildest and best experience ever.
Our guide was a gem.. He was very knowledgeable about animals and birds. wonderful books on birds and animals the he would use to answer our questions. over a half mile away and we were the only ones to see her that day. Same for a leopard and seeing it have its lunch. When We visited also a masai Village, we loved this experience and shared with the real masai for the whole morning. We were glad that the company and ourselves could contribute to support economically the community for they live in such a hard conditions.
We had an incredible time. Thanks again guys to make of our safari a fantastic experience.
