SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY!
We had a terrific guide named Ian for a five day safari of Taragire National Park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. We became close friends and he knew where all the game was. We spotted elephants and male lions every day, along with the all the big game including a rhino charging a water buffalo, a cheetah with her cub, hippos, and 25 hyenas, some with blood on their necks from a fresh kill. Every day was a new adventure including hanging out with all of the guides, once everyone else was asleep in their tents, drinking with them and telling stories. It was a trip full of memories.
In Zanzibar, we stayed at Sea Cliff Resort on the northwest side of the island. Again, all the transfers went smooth and everything was taken care of. This resort was a slice of heaven for sure. The bars/restaurants were great, the two infinity pools, the pier to watch sunsets, the spa, the food, the service. We also booked a few excursions with the hotel - to Prison Island and a tour of Stone Town. Also on the actual evening of my birthday we paid the guy who originally picked us up at the airport about $80 to take me all the way out to the northeast side of the island so that we could have dinner at the Rock Restaurant (if you've never heard of it, Google it, trust me). The drive is about 90 minutes and he sat there for 2 hours and waited in the van while we enjoyed the scenery and dinner. That was $80 well spent.
In conclusion, I can honestly say that this was probably my favorite trip yet. That is saying a lot because I've taken amazing trips to Cambodia, Iceland, Brazil, Peru, French Polynesia, New Zealand, etc. etc. I've been all over...and this was one of a kind.

Excellent service
We did 7 days Safari with Tanzania Exclusive Journey. It was a great trip, we visited Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Eyasi area. Our guide Ian was very helpful and professional.

It was a great trip, we visited Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Eyasi area. Our guide Ian was very helpful and professional. We wanted to try all type of accommodation during our stay: lodges, tented camps and camping tent and every place was good, and worth to recommend. At the camping we had also a chef - John, who prepared us very tasty meals (big portions!).
In Ngorongoro and Serengeti we saw a lot of animals (especially lions) but the most impressive was visiting 2 tribes at lake Eyasi - Hadzabes and Datoga. Our local Eyasi guide, Musa, gave us a lot of information about these tribes, their culture, way of life, etc.
Just before the fly home, we try a small climbing to Kilimanjaro.
What was also very nice - the care of from Tony who was our contact during the preparations to safari. He greeted us at the Arusha airport, then called few times during safari to be sure if everything is ok.
So I can strongly recommend to you services of Tony and Tanzania Exclusive Journeys, and worth to recommend. At the camping we had also a chef - John, who prepared us very tasty meals (big portions!).

Trip of a lifetime!
Tanzania Exclusive Journeys provided the best experience possible from the very start when tailoring the itinerary with Jane through to the actual safari with a highly professional guide in Marc! As a solo traveller I had the safari to myself and loved every minute of it. The accommodation they selected was amazing both with locations and comfort. Ally was extremely knowledgeable and provided great insight into history, culture, flora and fauna. Obviously the highlight being able to see the Big 5 and plenty of other animals running wild in their environment. I will definitely be a repeat customer. Thanks for a memorable time guys.
Simply Outstanding
This is simply a wonderful company to travel with. We've actually done 2 trips with them- a safari and the Kilimanjaro climb. We also recently referred a friend who had a wonderful experience. They have fantastic knowledge of safaris, understand what's important to travelers, and the do have terrific guides who provide excellent services and sense of humor! Highly recommended!

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE
We had the pleasure of being escorted by Tanzania Exclusive Journeys during our recent trip to Tanzania. We had two different guides, and both of them were EXCELLENT! They both had very extensive knowledge of the flora and fauna of all the areas we visited. They were very passionate about nature and the animals, and they were intensely focused on making sure my wife and I had the time of our life. I would very highly recommend using Tanzania Exclusive Journeys if you're planning a safari soon!

We’ll be back!
This trip was both very adventurous and educational. Our guide Marc could tell us everything about wildlife. He showed us beautiful places in the Serengeti and Tarangiri parks in addition to incredible animals up close. The lodges we stayed in we’re in the middle of the bush, with roaring male lions next to the tent. Still it felt safe because of the great staff. An unforgettable experience. We'll be back for sure!

Another great safari with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys
During February, 2015, four of us (three friends, my wife and I) had a wonderful safari experience with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys. From pick-up and return to the airport, we had eight days of travel through the parks seeing great multitudes of animals, stayed at clean tent hotels, enjoyed good food, and had a fantastic knowledgeable guide. My wife and I decided that when our grandchildren are old enough, we would go back and take them. And that is what we did during the last week of December, 2021, taking our thirteen and eleven year old grandchildren, with their parents, to experience the Tanzania safari. Again, clean tent hotels, good food, and the same (James) fantastic knowledgeable guide. The difference, if any, is that on this trip we saw more lions (my grandson counted 53 lions over the eight days), more giraffes (many more than one hundred), and more hippos (hundreds), and warthogs (hundreds). Too hard to count the thousands of wildebeests, zebras, gazelles, impalas, flamingos, and multitudes of other birds and animals. We were six in a Toyota Land Cruiser, with a pop-up roof and each of us with a window seat. The hotel facilities were all conscious of Covid issues and alleviated our health concerns. It also helped that we were not in any crowded environments. We are now waiting for our third grandchild to be old enough for this once-in-a lifetime trip. And when she is, we will do it again!
