Young and dedicated Tourmanager (Arnold), who helped where he could
The communication was great from the beginning till the end. Arnold picked us up from the airport in time and drove us to our AirBnb. He also gave us some blankets and towels, because we didnt have any for the safari. The route for our trip was also well organized, so we didnt have long ways to drive without seeing any animals. We had competent tour guides(first Joseph, then Fred), who could tell us a lot about the animals and nature and someone we felt safe with. Our cook was a nice young guy, who served always fresh and delicious food. I would definitely recommend a safari tour with Major Treks and Safaris, because everything went as promised and with Arnold you have a tour manager who helps and cares where he can. Thank you Arnold!

Good
I love the fact that the tour operator picked me up from the airport for no extra charge and worked with me in regards payment options.
The safari went mostly smooth. Even though we got a flat tire and a sick person in the group they managed to work it out. Anything can happen on a safari so be prepared. We had some unforeseen circumstances. But I loved the safari experience saw lots of wildlife and I would recommend to do this safari with this company as I think the price is cheaper than some other places.

Amazing service, better than expected. 100% recommended
We started to be in touch with the company as our hotel staff recommended it. Arnold (manager) was super responsive, fast and kind all the time though whatsapp messages. Once we arrive to Arusha, we have a face to face meeting with him in order to confirm services and schedule for our safari. They have different options, so He arranged everything for us based on our preferences, time and budget. He knows a lot about this, and He has a lot of experience in the hospitality area so all his tips regarding our trip were 100% accurate. Since we started our safari, He and his staff (cheff and driver) were all the time worried about us, asking if we were fine or if we needed anything else. After having an amazing 3 day safari tour, we came back to Arusha, and we decided to do another day tour with them as well as we were delighted with the high quality and personalized service they have. We were so blessed and grateful about knowing this company. Taking the decision to do our tour with Major Treks and Safaris was completely successful. I do recommend this company for your time in Tanzania.

excellent
First of all, communication with Arnold was excellent, he kept all his agreements.
We had a very nice safari, nothing to complain about.
The price quality ratio was good.
I was pleasantly surprised by the food during the safari, they have never disappointed us, the food was prepared on site by an excellent chef.
The driver was always very cheerful you could ask him anything it was never a problem.
Very very friendly people I recommend it to everyone.
Thanks for everything.

Very good safari tour with a trustable company
We went for safari at serengeti, ngorongoro and tanraguire in september 2021.
It was an amazing experience that meets more than our expectations.
We were welcome by the manager of the company, which is a trust-worthy and friendly person. He helped us a lot.
During the safari, some drivers were also french speaking and they animated the trip very well.
The food cooked by chef Denis was everyday more and more tasty.
We do recommand a safari with Major Treks and Safari

Arnold Nyalu our, customer-friendly, 100% dedicated driver and guide, speaking impeccable English
Even though we did not use the services of his company for safari tours in any of the northern circuit national parks, we used his services as a guide and driver for some of the off-the-beaten track places in the area of Arusha. He drove us safely around to the Moite Bwawani Maasai Village and Mission. Initially we thought a 20 km distance wasn’t that far but we didn’t expect the tarmac to end after a few kilometers and the rest of the journey was dirt road. But our driver Arnold W. Nyalu skillfully and safely brought us to our destination, even though the road was, to say the least, pretty challenging.We know him to be the owner of Major Treks and Safaris and we believe he can be fully trusted. Choosing any tour operator for safaris is always a matter of trust. We recommend Arnold Nyalu to anyone thinking of a hassle- free safari experience.

Most amazing tour ever
The safari was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Both Tarangire National Park and the Ngoro Ngoro crater are extremely worth visiting. Of the 'Big Five' (rhinoceros, water buffalo, elephant, lion, and leopard) we saw four, only the leopards were too shy. We also saw giraffes, zebras, hyenas, jackals, wildebeests, baboons, vervet monkey, and amazing arrays of gazelles (including the incredibly sweet dik-dik) and birds (including pelicans, flamingoes, storks, kites and many more). The guide/driver was wonderfully knowledgeable and always happy to stop, explain and search out animals for us to see. The lodge we stayed at was simple but had everything we needed, and dinner and breakfast were surprisingly good (and quite plentiful). The two lunches we had at the national parks were very good too. Everything was organised very smoothly from beginning to end. I also want to mention that Arnold, the company representative, helped greatly with a travel-related matter that had absolutely nothing to do with the safari, for which I am very grateful. I highly recommend this company. A big thumbs up for Major Treks and Safaris!

The best service at affordable price
Very well organised, I enjoyed very much the experience in the beautiful national parks, learned many new things and never felt in danger with the animals and took beautifil pictures. Evrything went as promised thanks to the managers Arnold and Mohammed, the guides Baraka and Joseph and the cooks who were very well prepared. I would recommend the 5 days safari to my friends!!
