Unbelievable adventure! - Phenomenal Guide....
I cannot say enough about Tanzania Voyages Limited.....
There are many tour guides to choose from when planning a safari. There are none better than Raymond Sangawe and Tanzania Voyages Limited. I have done a few safari’s in the past and none were as memorable as my family’s trip with Raymond. From the moment he picked us up at the airport, Raymond became part of our family by interacting with my kids and listening and answering every question a curious kid could ask. Raymond goes above and beyond in finding our what we wanted out of the trip and turning those wants into reality. He adjusted plans and routes based on what we wanted to do and see that day and put us on animals where no one else was. He has an uncanny understanding of northern Tanzania and knows where the animals should be at any time.
During the course of our safari, we ran into other groups staying at camps and we discussed how our days adventure. Needless to say, the other groups were jealous of us because we saw more animals and experienced more things that they did. This was all a result of Raymond’s listening and knowledge.
I was blessed to have my entire family on the trip, parents, brother, wife and kids and we cannot stop thinking and talking about our trip. This is what you pay for. Memories that last a lifetime, and that is what Raymond Sangawe delivered. Raymond will always be part of our family and I look forward to planning another trip with him and is company in the future.

Raymond is an amazing tour operator and guide!!!
My sister and I planned our safari with Tanzania Voyages for May 31- June 13, 2023. Raymond left no detail undone. We are two senior women who went on safari with this small boutique safari company. It was absolutely wonderful to have Raymond as our guide. We saw all the big 5 and so much more!!! We had unlimited game drives and so were able to be out as long as we wanted. I highly recommend this safari company! Raymond is incredibly gifted as a guide and a wonderful human being to spend time with. I’m pleased to call him my friend in Tanzania!
Booking with Tanzania Voyages was the best decision everM
We are two senior sisters ages 60 and 71. I had been to Kenya 35 years ago and this was my sister’s first trip to africa. We first learned of Tanzania Voyages and Raymond Sangawe ( our guide) when working with another tour agency. They use Raymond for all of their Tanzanian safaris. Raymond guides for many of the high end companies and is also starting his own business that caters to those who want to hire a private guide and vehicle. We decided to go directly with Raymond and it was the best decision ever! We cannot begin to express how much Raymond took care of us. He is extremely professional, an outstanding guide, and a lot of fun! When my sister got ill on the trip, he was so kind and patient. Due to his suggestions we didn’t miss out on ngorongoro crater, and she was able to meet with a dr. Right away. We didn’t miss a thing! We saw so much more than we could have ever dreamed of…three rhino sittings, the big five, a jaguar eating a kil in a tree, elephants trumpeting next to the Land Cruiser, lions galore…so any we lost count! A serval cat hunt, kill and eat a snake, and so much more. He even had is in the middle of the great migration…which we didn’t expect! Every time we thought things couldn’t get any better, they did. There were no daily restrictions on how far you could drive ( which is common with the bigger tour companies) so we were out most of the day each day. The trip went very smoothly and any minor hiccups we easily handled by Raymond. We were so glad to have booked with Tanzania Voyages. All the money stays in the local community, and Raymond also contributes part of each trip to support a local orphanage and charity that supports girls. Raymond offers a variety of tours at several price points. We saved money and got a more deluxe trip going direct with Tanzania Voyages. I cannot recommend Raymond .Sangawe and Tanzania Voyages highly enough.
