Unforgettable experience! Already dreaming of going back!
What an adventure! We can't thank ATGEL enough for organizing such a perfectly personalized safari adventure for our honeymoon. Our 6 day safari took us through Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, and ended in Ngorongoro Crater.
We saw more lions, giraffes, zebra, wildebeast, elephants, and more than we could keep track of. We even got some great glimpses of leopards and cheetahs with their young. If that wasn't enough, we also had the luck to witness a pride of lionesses hunt a warthog! Our guide was an expert at spotting animals and he seemed to have a special knack for getting our jeep perfectly positioned to view the wildlife.
Through it all, ATGEL was so easy to work with. When we were designing our itinerary, they made sure we got the best experience for our interests and for the time of year. For example, when I mentioned that I love elephants, they recommended we visit Tarangire since it's known for large elephant herds, especially during the dry season. Plus, we'd get to see the striking baobab trees. All of their chosen accommodations were beautiful and placed us in prime wildlife viewing locations. We heard lions and hyenas as we slept, and we woke up to impala and monkeys in camp. Lastly, the cherry on top was when we realized they had surprised us with a custom "Just Married" tire cover made to put on the back of the jeep along with matching T-shirts. It was unforgettable!
Thanks so much again ATGEL! Hopefully we can come back again!
Our private tour with Africa Top Guide Expeditions was reasonably priced and met all our requests.
We heard about Africa Top Guide Expeditions through a friend who had just come back from Tanzania and had booked this fairly new company for his Safari. We had an idea of what we wanted to do: Climb Kilimanjaro & experience the Great Migration of the Wildebeast. We also wanted Safaris in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, and a final relaxing 4 days on the beaches of Zanzibar. Dezzie came up with a perfect itinerary that covered all these things and more.
We had amazing guides, Livingstone and David for the Kili climb along the Machame route; then Hussein for the Safari tours, and Spanish Dancers Dive team for the Zanzibar scuba dives. Our trip also included opportunities to experience a few local visits to the Chaga tribe, the Masai Bomas, and the Gorowa Tribe; each group offered different glimpses to their way of life and made us feel welcomed. We took over 500 pictures and met many people for an unforgettable trip!!!
Dezzie communicated best through WhatsApp or e-mail, and they want to make your experience as personal as possible but can also give you a “canned” itinerary they offer on their website. The trips are all-inclusive so the main expenses on the trip are for guides, porters and hotel tips and souvenirs to take home.

Truly the Top Guides in every way imaginable!
Africa Top Guide Expeditions Ltd. (ATGEL) provided my wife and I (and our extended family of 16 adults and 3 toddlers) 26 incredible days of trekking, safari AND relaxation! We believe Top Guide more than lived up to the name, not only sharing the best of Tanzania’s sights, hospitality and accommodations with us, but also guiding me personally through a major health crisis and probably saving my life.
From the fully-certified safari guides, to the hired city-drivers, to the porters and hotel and dining staff, every person went many extra miles and hours to make our every experience in Tanzania enjoyable and safe. As would be expected in travel to rural Africa immediately 'post-pandemic', there were mishaps, including my health crisis on Kilimanjaro, KLM Air losing all our trekking gear, and unplanned flat tires. Not to mention entertaining grumpy crying infants AND seniors over hundreds of miles of safari roads. But through the entire 4 week holiday, our Top Guides (and ATGEL management) coped with every contingency with humor, wisdom, and kindness, so we never missed out on a single minute of the best times Tanzania had to offer.
We left feeling as if they cared for us as their own families and we can never repay them for their kindness to each one of us. We hope you, too, will be able to experience the wilds of Tanzania and and warmth of its people with equally wonderful care from truly the best guides we've met anywhere.

The people at Africa Top Guide did everything to make sure we had the best trip possible.
To me, the mark of a good tour guide is taking care of you when things go wrong that are out of their control. That is exactly what Africa Top Guide did for me. After my flight (not associated with Africa Top Guide, of course) lost our luggage, Africa Top Guide helped me find rentals for everything I needed, and shipped my luggage to me while I was climbing up Kilimanjaro. Absolutely lifesaving. After an amazing hike up and down the beautiful Kilimanjaro, I was treated to a wonderful tour of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Tarangire Park. Everyone was very professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and very patient. I do not even want to think about what my trip would have been like with a different tour guide, and I will definitely pick them again when I return to Tanzania. Shout-out to Dezzy, Yusuph, Living Stone, both Davids, Godfrey, Penny, Josiah, Rama, Hassan, and everyone else who helped make my trip amazing.
Asante Sana, Africa Top Guide!
