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.

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!

Marvellous honeymoon safari tour in Tanzania
I quoted about ten safari tour companies and in the end we chose Travelpartner due to the competitive pricing and careful and helpful support by their sales agent Belen.
At our arrival, our safari guide John picked up my wife and I at the airport and drove with us until our hotel in Arusha. There, him and Belen explained with more details the planning of our safari.
We had the first day at tarangire and the following days at Serengetti. We saw many many wild cats at central serengetti and we were able to check the first wave of the wildbeest migration arriving to the border of Mara river. We were expecting to see the crossing (it was about July 21) but unfortunatelly the crossing started a bit later this year. Anyway, seeing the magnitude of the great migration was an incredible and unique experience. The last safari day was in Ngorogoro crater.
A special reference to our guide John which made our safari tour amazing. He is natural from arusha and have been working as a safari guide for the last 15 years. He has a very deep knowledge of serengetti, is extremelly kind , helpful and polite, and speaks a fluent english and also a fluent italian. He is simply the best.
Also, Belen was aware that it was our honeymoon and she provided many complimentary surprises during our entire trip, such as a congratulations cake at the first dinner, a bottle of wine at our bedroom in one of the lodges, a special table at the restaurant in another night, a basket of fruits in another day, and also a bottle of cava and another of wine at the refrigerator of our car. Those kind surprises made our honeymoon trip even more special.
Regarding something that we could do different, if you have flexibility on budget, at the end of the safari consider taking a flight from kogatende to arusha to save hours of driving.
Regards.

Excellent private safari
6 of us from the U.S. had a wonderful safari this September. Belen tailored the itinerary and accommodations based on our needs. Our guide Mboniea is great. He took extra efforts to find those Big 5s. The price they offered was the most reasonable.
I suggest considering this company for your safari. We were concerned initially because of little review on this company on TripAdvisor. But everything turned out great.

The best experience ever
My Safari trip were one of the bests experiences in my life. It was everything good since before my arrival. My guide Nickson was the best one, very talkative, friendly and easygoing. The environment and animals in Africa are awesome, difficult to express in words. I love the trip and i strongly recommend for everyone. Na Penda Africa.

Our guide Mbonea is the best!
We had a wonderful 4-day safari tour, guided by Mbonea who is absolutely the best guide we’ve ever had. He is so friendly, patient, and knowledgeable about the safari and Tanzanian culture that we found fascinating. We’ll definitely return for another tour.
Fabulous! They created that once in a life time opportunity!
This experience is once in a lifetime and this tour guide and company made that happen. They set up everything we could have needed from housing, food and everything in between. The tour guide was fabulous. I couldn’t have asked anything better from Herman.

Overall great experience and would highly recommend to anyone going on a Safari
Communication with Belen was great and super responsive which is important when booking overseas and she made sure to meet with us to answer any questions we had before we started our safari which was nice. Safari tour was amazing. Our tour guide Steve knew where to look for animals and pointed them out to us if they were really far and did an awesome job at getting us as close as possible to take pictures. We never felt rushed and being on a private tour was a nice surprise.

Very professional safari operator
Our group just finished four day luxury safari with Travel Partners. We are very pleased for the arrangements and can highly recommend this operator.
We visited three parks during our safari and saw all big five and lot more thanks to our professional drivers. Accomodation in the lodges was also very nice so can recommend for those looking for some luxury. At the end of the safari we had an interesting visit to Masai village.
