Amazing African Safari
My wife and I just returned from Tanzania. We booked our entire trip through Tanzania Exclusive Journeys. Janescheduled our vacation. She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. She made sure every detail was handled perfectly. Our safari took us to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. We stayed at great tented lodges while on safari. The vehicle was new, comfortable and had no problems at all.
Our guide and driver Tony was incredible. We spent about 12 hours a day with him for almost an entire week. He was extremely knowledgeable about every living creature we encountered. He was great company and had an eagle eye, spotting animals from great distances. He made sure that we were safe, comfortable and having a lot of fun. He stayed with us until we boarded our plane from Serengeti to Zanzibar. Jane booked our lodging and activities in Zanzibar and connected us with a very good guide in Zanzibar.
I would highly recommend Tanzania Exclusive Journeys to my friends and family and plan to use them the next time I travel to Africa.

Stunning and fantastic.. Simply Amazing!
The positive reviews played a big part in me booking our safari with Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and I hope our positive review can help encourage someone else to do the same. You won't regret it!
This safari was brilliant from start to finish. My correspondence with Jane was incredibly helpful and prompt and made the booking process simple, easy and worry free.
We were picked up from Nairobi Airport by our driver Samwel and we had the most amazing week with him. The hard work that he put in with long car journeys, early mornings and late nights were extremely appreciated. He went above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of our trip, saw everything we wanted to see and were happy throughout the entire time.
We went to Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Masia Mara which was the perfect combination of parks as each one offered something unique that the others didn't. The travelling between parks was made seamless with the appropriate breaks and through talking with our driver we really felt like we learned a lot about Kenya and its history, we felt like Samwel was our friend as soon as the trip started and trusted him implicitly.
This truly was the trip of a lifetime, we paid for the luxury accommodation and a private 4x4 vehicle and everything lived up to what was sold. The car was comfortable and roomy and perfect for the long drives between parks and also the fast paced exciting drives in the parks. The accommodation was amazing, everything was such a beautiful standard, staff was friendly and helpful and we couldn't have asked for more.
We also added the hot air balloon ride onto our trip which was another incredible experience, the champagne breakfast was wonderful and the early rise was so worth the sun rise from the balloon - amazing! The boat ride at Lake Naivasha and walking safari at Crescent Island with Moi was outstanding and the Hells Gate Cycle and trek through the Joe with Martin was breathtaking. Everyone we encountered made sure we had the best time, saw what we wanted to and learned about the experience too.
The things we have seen, the memories we have made and the incredible artwork we brought home with us will last us for a lifetime. The Kenyan people we met were friendly and kind and always happy to share the knowledge of their beautiful country. We will always remember Samwel and wonder with fondness how he is doing and wish him all the best! This trip has encouraged us to travel and explore more of Africa and the beauty and wildlife that is there.
Thank you so much for everything, we will definitely return one day, and when we do we will be using Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and requesting Samwel for our trip!

Truly impeccable service
Jane and her team are truly amazing and effortlessly go above and beyond without the hint of a fuss. That Jane provided us with fantastic advice and recommendations, as well as prompt and efficient email correspondence was great but also expected from a high end travel service. A small example from our trip of why Tanzania Exclusive Journeys stands apart from similar high end travels services occurred while we were on Kilimanjaro.
My Husband, a friend and I decided to accelerate our climb and finish a day early so we could try and arrange for our friend to join us for 2 days on Safari. Jane fielded numerous phone calls from us on the mountain on a Friday evening and within a couple hours had booked the perfect lodge and found a number of suitable flights from different remote airstrips.

The journy was too awesome and we saw different types of animals,but Ngorongoro was too unique
That was the most stunning and wonderful trip we ever did. Susan from Tanzania Exclusive Journeys did an amazing job in planning our trip and shared a lot of good advice – it is always the details that matter. From our point of view, this trip was well planned and perfectly executed in every way. We felt a warm welcome in Arusha at the office and got easy and direct help with an airport luggage issue, so all got well.Especially to our guide&driver Sam, we owe a lot of thanks. He was the perfect guide for us. He easily won our hearts and we had a lot of fun on the trip. There are so many special moments on this Safari thanks to him. He took really good care of us and told us nearly everything there is to know about that wonderful wildlife. Our guide was a real treasure, always calm, accommodating where help is needed, well respected in the community, fully professional and blessed with the right kind of humor.Trip details: We visited Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP und Ngorongoro Crater NP on our five day safari. I would always suggest to book a private tour, it is absolutely worth it. Take your time to research some accommodations to get the right feeling for what you want and listen to the advice of Jane. And if possible, do it a little longer than five days. By the way, Tanzania Exclusive Journeys guide does all the necessary paperwork there is in crossing national parks - smooth and easy. You can really enjoy every minute. The Landcruiser was well equipped, had lots of space, a power charger and a small fridge.We will come back!

Absolutely Amazing
Not easy to prepare your safari in Tanzania and choose from the countless agencies that share the market ... We chose Tanzania Exclusive Journeys and from our first mail we were conquered! Quick answers, professional, contact with Jane who took care of us was perfect from the beginning. She has answered all our questions and adapted to all our wishes in order to organize the safari made for us. Our guide, Rashid, spoke excellent English, a + for our 5 year old chip, knowledge and sympathy, made this trip a unique experience. He was able to adapt to our needs and desires, sometimes modify the program if we were tired and made us discover ALL possible animals to observe: from the lioness who takes her lunch at the rhino du Ngoron through the Lycaons and Cheetahs of the Serengeti ... The lodges and tented camp reservations were perfect for our family and the balanced routes, we loved the night spent in the middle of the Serengeti at the Kati Kati camp, a little less than the Tarangire Safari Lodge ... Finally, the Director of the agency came to accompany us to the airport of Arusha before our departure for Zanzibar to take stock with us on the progress of our safari, a friendly attention which really shows that this agency is serious and attentive. Highly recommended Tanzania Exclusive Journeys.

Do not trust this company!
Do not trust this company with your money. I paid them my deposit in early March. A week later, their website and cell phone number were terminated due to lack of payment. When I finally
heard from them again, I asked that my deposit be refunded. At the end of March, they agreed and stated that a wire had been sent, but that never happened. There have been several emails sent to me with stories as to why I have not yet been refunded. To date, I have not received my money back.

Posted on Aug 7, 2020Thank you for your review, it is our constant at Tanzania Exclusive Journeys to provide an excellent experience and services to each and every one of our valued guests. Hence it deeply saddened us, when we read that from you that we have not achieved our goal. You had canceled the tour at the last minute and threaten us to post a negative review against us, we had sent you our cancellation policy before you booked the tour, but still you have been demanding a full refund and force us to refund you so you can pull out the negative review. While we realized we cannot undo your experience; I do hope that you will in due course provide us with another opportunity and restore your confidence in our continued quality of services to our esteemed guests!.
