Safaris with Vision - an unforgetable experience -17 Tage Tansania & Sansibar
This was my first Safari, and our guides Guides George and Halpha from Taswira Africa Safaris have made this an unforgetable experience, that exceeded any of our expectations. With their knowledge about Flora and Fauna and their keen eye sight they showed us unbelievable things. Their humour and good spirit all the time was catching. The social Engagement of this company is amazing. The accomodations (tents and lodges) were selected with care. An absolute highlight was the Maasai Lodge with a walking tour amongst zebras, and Kati Kati Camp in Serengeti, with animals near the tents. Wir were 5 friends and had booked this safari directly with Taswira . Other companies do Safaris, here you get Safaris with Vision . Just perfect.

Very easy organisation, friendly and motivated
We really enjoyed our Safari, saw many animals, ate the best food and had a great time with our really friendly driver who always drove us to places to see unique things but also managed to take us to less crowded places and gave us enough time to enjoy the animals!
Great experience!

Awesome
We had a great time on the safari. Our guide was really good at finding the best locations to spot all the animals. We slept in tents which were set up for us before we arrived at the camp ground. The food was always freshly cooked and tasted really good. I would recommend taking a little snack with you, as the time between breakfast and lunch can be quite long.
Other than that it was absolutely amazing and they did everything to make us feel comfortable

The best
I went on a group safari tour of 5 days in the first week of June with my boyfriend. We found Taswira through the good reviews. We arrived the evening before the start of the safari and they came to the airport and brought us to our hotel for that night. They were very clear with instructions and expectations for the next day. The driver Johnson was very friendly and helping, you can have a great chat with him and ask him all your questions, even the dumb ones. We booked midrange and got upgraded 2 nights to luxury thanks to the owner of Taswira, George. He informs you very well, you can call him when there are issues and he will help you any way he can. After the safari, we had a drink with him and Johnson. You can see they are a team and just want you to have the best time and show their country and the beautiful animals. When you're scared of getting close to the lions or cheetahs, Johnson will soothe you and explain what to do when something might happen, but mostly they are harmless because they are kinda used to the cars by now. Johnson will give you clear instructions on what not to do. He is a great spotter, we were almost always arriving first at a group of animals. I'd recommend going in June, the weather is great, not too warm, not cold and theres not that many tourists yet. We also visited a local Masai village, beware they will ask for money to visit the village, while their tour is only 15minutes long. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngoro Ngoro and Lake Manyara. They are all so cool, Ngoro Ngoro has the best views and nature! In Tarangire you will find soooo many elephants. Serengeti you will find a lot of lions and we were lucky to see some chetahs very close to the car. Also a lot of Pumba's haha and hippo's. We slept one night in Serengeti and it was truly magical. Everyone is so friendly everywhere, they make you feel very at home. We stayed two nights in Suricata Lodge, we were only the 10th guests since it just opened. It was amazing, the staff is very friendly and helpful. They are very well trained and you will feel like you're in a 5 star resort. The architecture of the whole place is breathtaking and you have a view over Lake Manyara. The tented camps in de parks are also very comfortable and have great views. When the chef comes with you, you will have the best food, I swear Taswira has the best cook! I would say a 4 day safari would also be enough, but I was glad we did 5 days. We saw so many beautiful animals and almost all of the big five, only the rhinos are difficult to spot, they were very far from the paths so we couldnt see them up close sadly. You will definitley see elephants, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, hippos, buffalos and lions! And maaaaany monkeys haha. We had the best time and i would go back immediately if i could. Thank you for this amazing experience, i recommend!

BEST experience of my life!
One of the BEST experiences of my life! This tour is full of unforgettable experiences and sights, I have never been on a safari like it. George is an incredible guide who’s expertise and consideration defines the experience. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Tanzania and all its animals and experiences. George takes the time to explain everything you see and you really learn about Tanzania while you are there. I can’t begin to count the amount of animals we saw, the parks we visited were teaming with incredible wildlife. The food and service everywhere we went was impeccable with incredible Tanzanian hospitality, Taswira considers everything that you could possibly need. This company also takes a very ethical and sustainable approach, you will get to see the amazing initiatives at work in Tanzania. Tanzania is an absolute must visit and Taswira Africa is definitely the company to go with for the best experience, I would highly highly recommend. Thank you, George!

Really well organized, very trustworthy
First time in tanzania and first time safari! Booked directly with George. One of the best decisions i have made!
For the 5 days the organization was impeccable, George and the team always made sure that everything is on track, from itinerary to timings. I also had really great drivers that were super knowledgeable and fun to hang around with.
If you are looking to book your safari, i highly suggest you to contact George so he can plan the safari trip of your dream!

INCREDIBLE
We will be forever so incredibly grateful for Taswira Safaris. They made our tour experience so unique, genuine and personal. I have travelled a lot, and have never EVER encountered such a high calibre of tour and overall experience. We travelled with our 3 kids and grandparents. Our tour guides Halpha and George went above and beyond at every turn. They catered for all of us with ease - our young kids, their grandparents (and us, the parents, in between!). Behind the scenes Caroline had endless patience to customise our tour experience, answer any questions and make all the bookings etc. All we had to do was turn up! Once again, we will be forever grateful for the Taswira team for giving us a multi generation family holiday we will all never forget!
