5/5

We selected a 3 day luxury safari to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Matthias and Emmanuel met us at the JRO Airport and transported us to a nice hotel in Arusha. Early the next morning, we started a 3 day safari. Emmanuel is a 5-star tour guide-- knowledgeable, funny, and personable. The accommodations selected for us were beautiful and exceeded our expectations. The Toyota LandCruiser was modern and well-apportioned for the rough terrain. It was a pleasure to work with Relish of Africa. They truly made the 3 day safari a memorable experience. We will use them again.

Relish of Africa gave me and my 9 friends wonderful memories that will last a lifetime.
5/5

This is Teemo from China. I contacted a lot of agencies on SafariBooking. Relish of Africa is the only one who carefully and efficiently replied our tour demand. We wanted to customized the tour and we changed ideas more than 10 times before we finally confirmed our entire trip, including hotels, locations, etc. The office manager Andrew always gave us the best plan in 1-2 days. We are a huge team of 10 people from China, and Relish of Africa sent 3 guides and 2 ORV cars altogether to keep the tour funny and safe. I would like to thank Frank and Mathias specially again, Frank is a handsome guide who has over 11 experience in exploring Serengeti, he could always find those animals which were really difficult to be found. Mathias is a really nice manager who accompanied us all the way. Most importantly, their prices are much much more reasonable.
Thanks Relish of Africa, I would definitely recommend your team to my friends in China who are looking for an amazing tour in Tanzania.

5/5

The whole experience from booking the trip, through arrival in Tanzania to drop off at the airport was absolutely outstanding. Excellent customized traveling arrangements, very knowledgeable tour guide Frank during our safari adventure provided a lot of fun & valuable info about the animals & the area. Great organization of the trip, fantastic hotels, amazing food. We got also a great value for our money especially on the hot air balloon flight over the Serengeti. We are already planning our next trip and we highly recommend Relish of Africa & Frank to all travelers.

Friendly, competent, local knowledge
5/5

The safari was very well organized. The local people as well as our tour guide “Frank” were very friendly and helpful. Frank showed us the wild animals in the wildlife parks in an off-road vehicle over five days. With a lot of peace and a little patience, we had the opportunity to see almost all of the wild animals in this area. Further questions about the animals and local eggs were answered in an insightful manner. The food was always excellent. The trip was an extraordinary experience that I can always recommend.

Best 5 days luxury safari with Relish of Africa
5/5

We went on a 5 day Private Premium Luxurious Lodge safari primarily thru the Serengeti National Park, but also visiting the Ngorongoro Crater and the Tarangire National Park. We stayed at the Gran Melia Arusha in Arusha and The retreat at ngorongoro, four seasons safari lodge in Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Melia lodge at the rim of the crater. Our driver/guide was Gerald. We have seen the migration in Serengeti national park. The game viewing was SPECTACULAR as was the bird life. We saw huge numbers of lion, elephant, giraffe, gazelle/antelope, hippo, buffalo, crocodile, zebra and wildebeest. Though further south, the migration was stupendous. We saw multiple cheetahs, including a hunt and kill, four elusive leopards and a black rhino. Rare animals included a serval cat and a puff adder.
The overall scale and diversity of animals and birds seen on this safari is astounding. This is the first time we have done this particular Safari, and we make a point to repeat a trip!!
The guide was amazing. Brilliant driver and what we have seen is beyond belief. The guide make our safari and simply the best safari with Relish of Africa. Gerald he is a true gentleman and with the eyes of an eagle and encyclopedia knowledge of birds, animals and the land.
The lodges are all magnificent with great food and excellent South African wines to complement. All of the staff are incredibly helpful.
Relish of Africa is a local luxurious experts company. They can tailor any tour to suit your needs. You cannot find a better safari operator in Tanzania.

Thanks so much for such a long, detailed review.
We are really flattered by your wonderful comments to our company. Particularly on a 5 day safari, the driver-guides must be first-class, as he must be able to find new, different sightings. We believe that our driver-guide are amongst the very best, committed to giving our visitors the very finest safari experience. Relish of Africa can handle all sizes, from solo travelers, couples, honeymoon, family's and upwards.
Thanks for trusting us and choosing us.

5/5

We spent 4 days on safari with Relish of Africa, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment of booking until the end of the trip, we always felt comfortable and well taken care of. The experience was truly unique. We would gladly book with the same tour operator again and recommend them to anyone. Emanuel, Frank, and Dixon guided us perfectly throughout the 4 days. We received a lot of interesting information and were able to fully enjoy the sights of the wild animals. They were more than polite, attentive, and accommodating. Since our parents don't speak English, Dixon joined the tour and translated everything for them into German flawlessly. We wouldn't want to miss this shared adventure. A fantastic team! Thank you for everything! So glad we booked within you!

Extraordinary!
5/5

As a group of 5 people we did in July 2021 2 days safari – Tarangire and Ngorongoro and it was an unforgettable experience. Our driver/guide Emmanuel were really great. We´ve got lots of information and they were keen to answer any silly question we could have and were there really for us. We´ve already experienced safari in other countries and we had really bad experience as drivers there were really unrespectful to the animals and environment so we were a bit afraid about the same situation would happen here. But this company and drivers are really concern about the impact. They do their best to give unforgettable memories and experience to tourists but always give priority to respect the animals and nature. We stayed for overnight in Ngorongoro Simba campsite where our Chef Pascal prepared delicious food for us. It felt like heaven in the month, The service we´'ve got on this safari was brilliant and above our expectation. We´ve got more value for the price we paid. We highly recommend this company and to stay in Simba campsite. It was very different experience than staying in the lodge. Also, communication with Amos (the operation manager) was open and he was willing to customize the trip according to our demand and we appreciate that he was clear from the beginning about the prices and tips for drivers which are expected in most of the companies. We prefer that he informed us before and gave us clear guidance.

From all the companies we contacted this one gave us the best price offer and the service was over expectation. We highly recommend Relish of Africa and we would definitely choose you again guys for our safari holiday. Hopefully soon we will do another national park, Thanks for everything.

Amazing Vacation in Tanzania!
5/5

From the very beginning, my experience with Relish of Africa was amazing! Andrew was extremely prompt with answering my questions via whatsapp and making changes to our itinerary as needed. When we landed at JRO, Emmanuel and Mathias were on time to pick us up along with information. Emmanuel was an amazing safari guide - he was knowledgeable, flexible and fun throughout the whole trip. They also planned the Zanzibar portion of our trip and again everyone was always on time and knowledgeable about any questions we had. We had such a fun trip without having to worry about any details. Highly recommend this company!

Thank you, it is true that the driver-guide is the key factor to have a super safari.

They have to be good animal-spotters, fun and flexible but also to have deep knowledge of the wildlife, peoples culture and landscapes . We believe that we employ the 5* star guides!

Thanks for choosing us and we do appreciate your custom, and your review!!!!
