Perfect Organization an animals view optimization
We spent 5 days safari included 4 days with Omar and his chef Mohammed.
Those 4 days were amazing. We saw all big fives and all ugly fives and for each Omar took time to explain there habits. Even if it was sometimes difficult to find them, Omar took always time to find them even if we should be late for the camp. His priority was us.
Simply, perfect.
I recommend him and Mohammed for everyone who would like to live a real safari experience.

Wonderful experience on a budget!
Our guide Macha was wonderful! I did the budget safari and expected to sleep in tents the entire time, but the first and last nights were in a Lodge with comfortable beds, a real plus.
Our vehicle was clean and in good condition. We had one minor issue with the gas tank attachment, but it was fixed in a few minutes. Several other drivers stopped to help; just highlighting the spirit of cooperation among the tour companies. They also shared wildlife sightings so that we could see a much as possible.
The Serengeti was astounding and Ngorongoro Crater was like a microcosm of all the different habits; mountains, plains, wetlands. Tarangirie and Mayanara are also nice, but if you have limited time, I would skip them.
The difference between budget, mid and luxury are in the accommodations and food. The budget food was average, but plentiful.
I came for animals, not food.
The trip met and exceeded my expectations!

Kind and helpful
Our driver was Simply Amazing. I give to him 10 stars above 5! So nice, so kind, so gentle and of course so professional. He tells us a lot about the Animals we saw and the parks and of course about Tanzanian culture. We loved him and of course we loved the safari! Accomodations are goods (in mid range option), confortables and nice, food Is correct (Little choises but ok), our contact from the agency was super nice and helpful. She helps us to recover our Lost luggages! The only thing for which I don't give them a 5 star Is that the group safari supposed to be maximum 6 people and we were 50% of the time 7, and they put us in a group from differents agencies so everybody was in a different accomodation which results in a huge loss of time. For the rest really unforgettable!

Amazing Safari experience made exceptional
The tour guides and the hotels provided were exceptional by any standards... The pickup and drop off to airport and sight seeings were arranged very well and in a timely manner.
The food served could have been better.

Excellent
Seamless trip for me. The agency pay attention to my needs from tour inquiry, airport pickup, bus reservations and the actual safari experience. Jackline and Simon and the crew did a good job. And made my 1st african country to visit a memorable one. I can't put in words my gratitude to visit Tanzania and Africa. Dream come true for me indeed!

Beautiful safari experience, for a reasonable price
Me and my girlfriend joined a group camping safari of 3 days and were more than satisfied.
The scenery of the Serengeti NP and the Ngorongoro crater are outstanding and home to plenty of animals.
The agency personnel was very friendly and communication with them very smooth, we cleared all questions and doubts by chatting on Whatsapp.
In general, we liked how little about the safari was superflous. The group was well adjusted. We chose to sleep in tents and loved it. The food was abundant and by far above expectations (big up for the chef), and it was fun to eat all together. The first day there was a big downpour, but it only made everything more fun (and fresh).
We were looking for the cheapest options that would provide value, and were indeed not disappointed.

Profesional, efficient with a personal touch!
Packaged booked- 4 days Mt. Meru Trek, 4 Days Safari. I just got back from a fantastic 4 days’ trek to Mt. Meru and an unforgettable 4 days of Safari in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire! I searched and wrote to more than 10 tour agencies as a solo traveler and not one was so flexible as to accommodate a solo traveler into a group tours than Travel Africa Safari Agency. Mohamed sent me proposals according to my specified dates and wishes. He was very accommodating and he communicated promptly the proposal in a very professional way, and created a brochure like proposal with pictures of the activities. Other agencies who have good ratings responded back 2-3 days later. So 5 stars for great response time to Mohamed! I booked a package for 4 days safari and 4 days Mt. Meru trek and Mohamed advised me all the way from when to start the trek down to what gears to take to the trek. He was very, very helpful. Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro airport, I was greeted by driver Godfrey holding up my name, who was friendly and spoke good English. He was very helpful in getting me settled in with the ATM and Sim Card before driving to the hotel. Please do not forget to tip the driver! The next day was the first day of trekking to Mt. Meru. Jacklin, Mohamed’s very funny and lively assistant greeted me together with my guide Emanuel for the briefing. Emanuel, a very capable, professional, funny guide told me what not to take to the mountains and what to leave for the safari later on. They took care of my luggage with my safari clothes and stuff, very convenient! Together with Emanuel, Godfrey, Barik (the cook) and the porters, we drove towards the mountains and joined other groups with the ranger Rocky. We set foot through green forests and saw some animals along the way. Beautiful sceneries. We went everyday for 6-7 hours and stayed overnight in huts. Barik prepared very , very tasty meals, always with a delicious soup as a starter, main course like fish, chicken, beef, pasta and fruits. Coffee and Tea are a daily part of the meals. I was very happy with the food! I was served warm water for cleaning up after every trek , before the trek. Emanuel ensured I had everything I needed. The day of the summit trek, I was feeling a bit sick and Emanuel guided me with such patience, and utmost profession that he was able to calm my nervousness and anxiety. The hike up the to the summit was not so easy for me, but the brilliant stars, the orange crescent moon and looking over the lights in Arusha below was much more worth it. Upon arrival at the summit, we saw Mt. Kilimanjaro. Breathtaking views everywhere. The red ball of sun was just rising up the clouds and it was magical. Emanuel gave me hot tea, such luxury. We sang the Jamba Hakuna Matata song , it was the most exhilirating experience! I got a stomach problem & the guide Emanuel made sure to help me.The way down was beautiful, we saw buffaloes, Giraffes up close. They brought me to the hotel, which was part of the package and the next day was the start of the 4 days safari. The driver Levine picked me up & other clients. In Serengeti I had a beautiful tented lodge with dinner & breakfast included.The 2nd day was a different lodge by the Ngorongoro rim, with great vuews & food. Levine was very knowledgeable & explained to us about animal behaviors, Masai tribes, drove us to see many incrediblr wildlife.I was brought to a hotel included in the package on the last day of safari. The next day was a free say & Mohamed kindly sent a driver Joel & his car for me to use! This was an amazing service Mohamed offered. I got to see Cultural Heritage, Tanzanite experience. Joel recommended a good restaurant, all good. On my departure day, Mohamed came to say goodbye, Godfrey brought me to the airport & I got a Travel Africa TSHIRT! The whole trip was one of the best trips I had & all because Mohamed & his team gave a great service. I highly recommend booking with them !
An incredible experience
It has been an amazing experience. They have treated us very well and they are wonderful and very attentive people.
