Well organised
Tour was well organised and communication was constant from bookings period, during the tour and even after return in Dar.
The Nyerere tented camp was good. Pretty new and comfortable. The food and service was good as well. Knowing it was the short raining season (but this time with heavy rains) we had a good time.

Connect African Safaris, your gateway to Tanzanian safaris
Connect African Safaris was the first to react to my quote request and I was a little surprised that Thecla contacted me personally by WhatsApp. After that there was a good contact with both Thecla and Sheryl and they answered all questions my wife and I had. On the morning of the start of our safari Sheryl came personally to our hotel to make sure that everything was okay. Our driver/tour guide Emanuel proofed to be a good driver and after a 6 hour trip from Dar Es Salaam to Mikuni National Park we could start our first game drive. Thanks to Emanuel we already saw all animals on our bucket list and after a few hours driving through the park we went to the lodge that Connect African Safaris had booked for us for a nice dinner and a good sleep. The next morning it was up early again for breakfast and then off to the park. Again a lot of animals where seen and Emanuel stopped where ever we wanted so we could get the best possible photos. In the afternoon we had a short but very interesting visit to a Masai village. On the final day it was back to Dar Es Salaam where we were dropped off at the hotel of our choice. I can highly recommend Connect African Safaris. Communications are excellent and they give a very good service. If I ever have the opportunity to visit Tanzania again I will certainly book a tour with them again.

Nice Safari
It was a long drive from the port to Mikumi Game park but it gives you the ability to really see how the locals live. At one point, the road was closed for a traveling dignitary. We got out to stretch and met a Maasai man that had walked about 10 miles to find a place for his cattle to graze (drought making it tough). Priceless experience

Wonderful Safari in Mikumi
Thanks a lot to Abdul from African-Connect for a very well organized safari to Mikumi!
Starting with an easy pickup, I enjoyed the smooth 3 days with a nice stay in the lodge and an exciting game drive within the park.

Amazing safari experience 5*
We had an absolutely fantastic time! From beginning to end, the trip was exceptionally well organised, and our tour guide and driver, Abdul and Peter, made us feel safe and prioritised our needs throughout. They transformed our six-hour car journey into what felt like a breeze by allowing us to take breaks whenever we wanted and sharing insights about the local culture. We felt completely at ease during the entire trip, and both spoke excellent English. There was never a moment when we felt we couldn't ask questions; they were genuinely wonderful people who significantly enhanced our experience.
The safari itself exceeded all our expectations. We felt incredibly fortunate to have such professionals accompanying us, including our skilled driver. Our safari guide was outstanding—very experienced and truly made our outing the best we’ve ever had. We had some initial concerns about not seeing much wildlife, but they persevered until we spotted four out of the 'big five', which was simply incredible! Even when the animals were resting, our guide took the time to educate us about everything related to the safari, and we noticed others in nearby jeeps listening intently to his explanations—his knowledge was remarkable. He communicated in perfect English, and no request was too much trouble for him. They ensured our comfort from start to finish, making certain we were hydrated, well-fed, and at ease throughout the entire experience. Even now, as we relax in beautiful Zanzibar, we find ourselves reminiscing about it and have shared our experience with many others. We can't thank Connect Safari enough and hope many others have the incredible experience that we enjoyed. Thank you once again for the seamless communication and for providing us with the best experience we have ever had!

Knows his job well, friendly, helpful, fun:)
From the first moment, we felt that we were taken to the safari in Dar es Salaam by a very professional and reliable company which is Connect African Safaris. This company also made us feel that it trusted us. Both the tour operator, the vehicle driver and even the safari driver were all very friendly towards us. Our every need was considered and organized. As a result, we had a very nice experience, I thank you very much on behalf of myself and my friend.

Fantastic Safari Experience
We have spent 2.5 days in Nyerere National Park. Already the drive from Dar-Es-Salaam to Nyerere was quite exciting and interesting. The lodge accomodation was fantastic, we slept very well and the food was delicious.
The boat safari and the full day game drive were an amazing experience - and we even saw lions!
A big thank you to Halima and Omah from Connect African Safaris!

They consistently showed extraordinary responsiveness, care and service. World class.
From the moment we first made contact with them they made us feel important. They were patient and flexible with all the changes we kept making. Through the preparation, planning and during the trip they put our wishes and needs first, their focus was on giving us the best possible safari experience. My partner had mobility challenges when we arrived and our driver and guide was caring, attentive and helpful. Their service exceeded our expectations again and again. Omar was the person we dealt with and his service levels were exceptional. We travel a lot and have never experienced anything quite like this level of personalisation and caring. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
