Responsive and helpful
Regarding the organization by Telly, things went smoothly. Mohamed (the owner of Telly) has been very responsive and keen to tailor the safari to our wishes.
Regarding the safari itself, we have had the chance to be guided and driven by Lievin, who has been the best guide we could have hoped for! He drove safely, was very motivated to wake up early as it is the best time to see the animals, was also very knowledgeable about the savane and the animals, and very nice!
We saw the big five (and much more) in a matter of 3 days going through Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

Very well organized on short notice, great guide and vehicle!
We have booked a luxury fly in safari with ~5 days notice and Telly Safaris managed to pull off the booking of all flights/hotels and organizing an unforgettable trip. We had an amazing guide who actually worked as a ranger in one of the parks and knew where the most rare animals could be. We managed to see the Big 5 in less than 36 hours of our safari. We actually saw 4 rhinos (!) and one passed 50m in front of our car. The safari vehicle was almost brand new (I have been on a safari before with much worse vehicles). Overall amazing experience and I would highly recommend Telly to anyone.

Great Safari Experience with first class service and organisation by Telly Africa Safaris
We had a wonderful safari experience in The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Despite a couple of setbacks, Mohamed at Telly Africa sorted everything out for us perfectly, including finding a replacement guide and vehicle when ours broke down on the way to pick us up, to changing the hotel at the end of our trip as we were not happy where we were! Nothing was too much trouble so everything went smoothly.
Our guide Gaza was brilliant, with a great knowledge of the animals and where to find them. The scenery and the animals were amazing, and we had plenty of time on the game drives giving us the best chance to see the most animals. The food provided for lunch was very good and plentiful so there was no chance of going hungry!
The lodges we stayed in were first class; the Matawi tented camp in the Serengeti was a real experience, especially listening to the hyenas and lions during the night! The Serena lodge at the Ngorongoro crater was also excellent with fabulous views of the crater from the room and the bar, great food and a huge boxed breakfast which we had in a beautiful setting in the crater.
I would highly recommend both this trip and Telly Africa Safaris for an unforgettable experience.

The guide and the company are great, they were on time and they drive carefully, but I really appreciate that the guide Oscar is a very knowledgeable person and knows lots of things from Kilimanjaro, he was patient and supportive alm the time, I highly recommend this company!

Absolutely amazing, very kind
Everything was Great. Amazing experience for good price.
We had experienced guide and saw many animals
I really enjoyed safari with Telly due to great value for money.
First we did safari in Kenya in Amboseli park staying at the AA lounge. The park is unique by its view on Killimangaro, so the scenery was beautiful. We saw many animals such as elephants, giraffes, gazellas, zebras, hyenas and lions.
The accomodation was in big tents, clean and comfortable.
Secondly we visited Tarangire park - my favourite with many animals on small area. We saw there also cheetah chasing impalas.
The third park was Serengeti where we saw mainly lions, but also leopard.
We finished our "big 5" camera hunt in Ngoro Ngoro where we saw rhino.
Today we finished our safari in Lake Manyara.
In Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro we were sleeping in tents in the park so we could enjoy sunrise and sunset with wild animals such as elephant, anthelope and hyena - everything supervised by the experienced guide, so it wasn't dangerous.
The tour operator had its own cook, so even in wild we could enjoy different cooked meal every day.
The cook and the tour guides were experienced. The guides were able to reply all our questions and one of them- Aron very helpful as we had some extra requests where we wanted to go outside of the agreed tour- e.g. Massai market, souvenir shop, etc. Also he negotiated local prices at the bar for us.
I would recommend Telly to everyone.

Perfect time in Tanzania.
The trip was amazing and we had so mooch fun. We were taken to really spectacular places and were always taken care of. The spots to see the animals were super nice. Good selection of accommodation. Car is nice and our guide Mtinangi Omary was top top. I can recommend Telly Africa Safaris and Mtinangi without a hesitation.

Excellent from start to finish
After countless hours of reading reviews/research into multiple tour operators we decided to book with Telly Africa safaris, we were not disappointed. There was great communication from the initial booking process whilst still in England to the days running up to our trip whilst at our hotel in Zanzibar, everything went exactly as described in our itinerary. Our point of contact was Mohamed and was always on the end of the phone should we need him.
The safari itself was amazing we spent two days in the Seringeti and one day at the Ngorongoro crater. Our driver/ guide, Mtinangi was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, he had a deep understanding of nature and could answer any questions we had, he made the whole trip a wonderful experience.
The accommodation was also outstanding we stayed at Into wild Africa on the first night, a tented camp in the middle of the Seringeti. Lying in bed at night listening to lions and hyenas in the distance was incredible. On the second night we stayed at Ngorongoro serana safari Lodge this was also incredible.
All in all a wonderful tour that I would highly recommend to anyone.
