Exceiient experience
Our safari with Roy Safari's was a trip of a lifetime. The drivers were awesome. Their caring of us was more then we expected.
They knew just where the animals were. They did their best to get us near to the animals for good views and pictures. The owners of the company were so thoughtful they went out of our way for us. The places we stayed. Were beautiful. One of them was the African Tulip and another was The Retreat at Ngorongoro.
Emanual (Manny) provided skill, deep knowledge, significant people skills topped with great humor!
Your service for the Michigan Tour Connection group surpassed all of my expectations. Tour guide, Manny was relentless on providing superb wildlife/local/Tanzania knowkedge and locations. I'm 77 and have travelled much. This trip through Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro National parks formed forever golden memories

Excellent
Roy safaris did a great job organizing our safari. Our accommodations were outstanding. Our drivers Emmanuel Salvatory and Othman did everything possible to show us as many animals as the eye could see. They were friendly, kind and very considerate with our needs. I am going back next year due to this wonderful company.

Life changing experience
Roy Safari was wonderful to deal with. Thomas Mosha was our guide and I can't imagine any one better than him. His knowledge and respect for the wildlife brought so much to our experience and first time in Africa. He also became our friend and we are still in contact with him. Would definitely go on safari with Thomas again!! Also, Riwaida made all our arrangements and everything exceeded our expectations. Although she was in Tanzania we never had trouble communicating in a timely manner. One of the best adventures ever!

The best!
My travel companion and I have just returned from a trip to Tanzania which included a safari and visit to Zanzibar. I booked this adventure on line with Roy Safaris and it went off without a hitch! Our agent, Riwaida was phenomenal from start to finish. She even booked additional flights to get us across the country to Arusha where our safari began. She really went above and beyond! Our driver guide was Thomas and with 17 years experience, we couldn't have asked for a more informative, courteous and friendly person! He even made arrangements for our lodge rooms to be close to the main dining area to accommodate my travel companion who was a little older. Our Zanzibar leg of the trip was also wonderful and the beach side resort of Sandies Mapenzie Beach was fabulous!

They deliver great services
I bought Roy Safaris through an agent from Brasil for a 10-days safaris from Arusha to Ngorongoro Area and Serengeti, encompassing Tarangire, Lake Eyasi, Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu (South Serengeti) and Seronera area (Center of Serengeti).
One of things that caught my attention was a small meeting arranged by them - in the morning of the first day - with me, and the guide and the directors of Roy Safaris to make them know what my interests and my experience with safaris and which animals I'd like to see so that the guide could try to attend my interest.
The guide was quite patient and helpful, well informed about the wildlife and Tanzania's history. He also spoke, besides english, French and Spanish. He had an great skill for languages and a few days after our departure from arusha he started speak some expression in Portuguese... that was very kind!
During the 10 days Tesha, our guide, struggled to show us what we'd like to see: big cats hunting, the big five, crocodiles and wild dogs. He was specially skilled to manage our anxiety so that we could stay up 2 or three hours to see a hunting or follow a wildebeest for three hours to see it giving birth.
At the end of tour all of us were thankfull to him for his skill and interest to deliver the best safari we did.

Very professional and personable, good value
I had researched many safari companies, while arranging a safari for 4 people, to see as much as possible in about a week’s time. Roy’s was a very reasonable value, flexible in working with me on tweaking some lodging options (as I had read up a lot of various resorts/camps as well), provided a very professional and accommodating driver/guide, and ensured that we had the experience of a lifetime. Highly recommended and appreciated!

Absolutely perfect tailor made private safari
8 days (7 nights) safari adjusted to our expectations and inquires was superb experience
Susan from Roy's office patently replied our questions and expectations, so finally we've mutually created programme fitted to our budget, time slot and expectations
All 3 accommodations during trip was really very good and "Retreat of Ngorongoro" was in fact lodge comparable with 5 star boutique property (something like Curio by Hilton or so...)
Finally biggest highlight of safari: Our Guide Emmanuel- reliable guy with excellent knowledge regarding fauna & flora of all parks we've visited and with similar sense of humour so of course we've created something like a "team" since first day.
We honestly could really recommend "Roy Safaris" local company from Arusha for reliability & customer friendly attitude.
Every single day was absolutely worth of money spent for it !!!
