Great professionals who made our holiday THE best ever!
Tanzania. As African Heart really knows Tanzania and the most beautiful places to see, they made sure our trip, our driver and guide and all our lodges were absolutely wonderful! We started at Lake Manyara where during the evening we were booked in a lodge which overlooks the lake. The next day we traveled to Serengetti for a 2 day stay, and our guide and driver made sure his nick-name Eagle-Eye was proven to be true! He has shown us all the animals we had on our 'wish-list' and more and made sure we were able to enjoy them in private!! Lake Victoria, the Ngororngoro Crater and Zanzibar.. all amazing places to be! The food during the trip was extremely well (lunch boxes, fab diners). We will most certainly come back to Tanzania, and for us there is only ONE tour-agent for this: African Heart, where they know the country and really listen and act on your wishes!! Karibu Sana!!!

An Unbelievably Amazing Experience!
African Heart Expeditions made my first trip to Africa unforgettable! I admired the beautiful and diverse nature an adored the very kind tanzanian people. Our guides were amazingly determined to show us the most beautiful places and animals, were helpfull and always open to a nice talk. All of this with a personal touch! The cooks did a great job too by making varied tasty food and always more than enough! I also noticed a very good and close cooperation between the organisers and the guides/cooks, always trying to improve their service!
I would like to thank ALL of the people of our team to make this an experience to never forget!
Thanks a lot!!

Amazing safari experience, with a personal touch and very expirienced guide.
African Heart made first a few proposals, so that we could determine what we want and whats it would cost. For us this is the way to do business. It was always possible to change things and the communication was fine.
From the first moment we arrived we felt the personal touch, from picking us up at the airport until making sure we got everything we needed for the safari, but never to much.
We (5 persons) chose the tented safari and had a great time at the campsites our cook made a fine breakfast and lunch and also the diners in the evening where fine, it's amazing what these guys can do with limited equipment and supplies.
The guide was very experienced and must have eagle eyes, he spotted the animals from great distance and managed to get us close to the animals (we could almost touch a leopard). The guide also was a expirienced driver in the fine safari vehicle.
We had a great time in Tanzania.

Superb organisation and perfect locations
African Heart organised our safari's and the trip to Zanibar. All was very good, inclusief flights, ferry and transfers. We had a great guide in the parks; Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire etc., and saw a lot of animals. Also Zanzibar was very nice And the accomodaties, lodges and tented camps were perfectly chosen. We had a great time.

top safari
We-a family of 4- booked a safari with African Heart Expedition. The 6 days camping safari was amazing in all aspects. The campsites in Ngorrongorro, Serengeti and at lake Natron were all located on top locations. The landscape was overwelming. The acomodation was basic but clean. Our cook Foraha was a real prince in his kitchen, our guide Salim outstanding. His 14 years of experience prooved to be usefull in many ways. He was smart, kind and had a nose for spotting wildlife. The fact that we saw 50 lions , a cheetah hunt, a leopard in just 1 day almost looks like a fairytale.
The road to the less visited lake Narton area was certainly an adventure, the visit to a local Masai village fantastic.
Also the transfer to Zanzibar and the stay in Stonetown was well organised by African Heart Expeditions.
Thanks to African Heart Expeditions our stay in Tanzania was unforgetable ! Many thanks to the entire staff!
Highly recommendable !

Dream safari
African Heart made my dreams come true! Going on a safari was my dream. When I was young, Animal Plant was my favorite TV-show and I was always watching it. The nature I saw on Tv was magical and I couldn't believe that somewhere on this planet it would look like the world I saw on Tv.
A few months ago I went to Tanzania. My trip to Tanzania changed my life. The people, the nature, the culture and the animals were even better than I expected. African Heart organized a safari, perfectly fitted to my wishes. I want to thank African Heart for making my dreams come true. Everything was so good arranged. From the begging till the end. I was nervous about this trip because it was my first trip alone. The people from African Heart helped me and made me feel safe. I will definitely visit Tanzania again.
Thank you African Heart Expeditions!

Safari Ngorongoro/Serengeti: once in a lifetime experience!! Will never forget!
We booked 6 days safari first Ngorongoro then Serengeti. First time in Africa, for us a big adventure. Excellent organisation, good accommodation, lodges were luxury but tented camp Robanda was the biggest adventure, in the middle of Serengeti, camp fire, everywhere good dinners even there. Our driver Roger was the best, he spoke very good English, was a good guide and spotter. Visited also Masai camp, also a big experience for us. We met the owners of African Heart in Arusha. A friendly couple, good reception, they gave us a lot of information, even help if needed. We still stay in touch. Thanks!

Excellent private camping safari in Tanzania with African Heart
We wanted to use special-camp sites (nicely private but cost more and have to be reserved) for our Tanzania trip, to replicate a fantastic experience we had in Bostswana. All the TOs we contacted except African Heart discouraged us, pushing tented camps. I can now see why - this is a heck of alot easier for them (basically Motel 6s in the Serengeti). Peter Reijmes from African Heart accommodated our request and arranged a great trip - Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Lake Myanyara, and Tarangire, with a hotel stop before and after. Our guide Josephat and cook Barongo were excellent company. The trip was brief due to our time constraints but did not feel rushed, and we saw lots of wildlife in different environments, as we hoped. We skipped the Masaii visit but went to a weekly market when our tire was being fixed, which I highly recommend. Email communication was more like 48-72 hours rather then 24 but reliable. We wanted to be camping alone under the stars in Tanzania and African Heart helped us make it happen.
