Great experience in Tanzania with Makasa Safaris
5/5

We, a family of 5 (children's age 18, 17, 15) just returned from a two and half week Tanzania trip and all of us had a great time. After climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and meeting with the Masaai, we enjoyed a wonderful safari in Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Our safari guide Ali impressed us by his knowlegde about the wild life and led us to beautiful spots. He was very professional and responsive to our needs and interests.
All perfectly organised, professional, helpful and personal.
Thank you, Selma, Ngomi and team! We feel lucky we found you on the internet and met you and your team in Moshi!

An amazing family safari experience!
5/5

I’ve found out Makasa and Selma reference looking at internet sites for safari information and immediately my gut feeling instilled me trust of them (usually I don’t online)! Afterwards, I can certainly say that it was well rely on and the perfect choice. Not only professional expert team in safari itinerary across Tanzania and reliable drivers – David & Tom, but also careful of and flexible to our needs. Selma, Makasa team and drivers has become part of our enlarged family too. We’ve been also lucky and saw all BIG 5 and any other animal you could think of over 8 days across Moshi, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Masai village!
At the end, we stayed in Zanzibar island for 6 days and again Selma’s selection of Dina’s Kilima Kidogu resort has been excellent … an heaven small lodge on white sand beach and barrier reef in the East coast with the personal touch of the owner Dina who let us feeling like at home.
In a nutshell, I would strongly recommend Selma & Makasa team if you like to live real Tanzania with your personalized tour! Enjoy your trip there!

Unforgettable experience for the entire family
5/5

custom-made safari according to our wishes, with good advice about the trip to the north of Serengeti, because we wanted to experience the wildebeest crossing of the Mara-river. Very nice lodges and tented camps with good food on the best locations. Experienced guide/driver who knew what he was doing and always put us on the best position to view the wildlife. Children ( 17,14,10) loved the safari, were never bored and had great fun in the camps. In preparing our adventure always swift response by Makasa through e-mail: all my questions promptly and adequately answered. No unpleasant surprises on the trip. Hopefully not a once in a lifetime experience.

5/5

Everything from the initial email communication to our arrival was planned and ran smoothly. Selma helped plan our safari and it included all our accomadation information. A indepth listing of the places we would go and for how long. The safari itself was fantastic. We saw different areas of Tanzania and our guide Humphrey was extremely knowledgable. He was able to explain all about the land as well as the animals. He was patient with us and fun to spend the days with.

Wonderfull safari with Makasa
5/5

We asked for a detailled ,personel safari for 4 adults and one child where the highlight should be "the migration" around Serengeti.
We got more than we asked.
Good lodges,driver,communication,services (airport),and value for money.
Thank you Selma.

Perfectly structured trip with an excellent skilled guide organized by a family business with heart
5/5

The safari trip was amazing. Everything was perfectly organized. The Lodges and Tented Camps were great and the service as well as the food exceeded all expectations. We saw allot of animals and different landscapes and stayed overnight in a Maasai hut. Our tour guide, who stayed with us for one week, was great and had an excellent knowledge of the animals, geographic and culture. The car was well equipped and we got lunch during all our trips. The people from Makasa were really nice and we were glad to meet them in person. We highly recommend MAKASA Tanzanian Safaris.

An absolutely perfect safari and trip through Makasa!!!!
5/5

Thank you Makasa for an amazing experience we will never forget! Selma, Ngomi, and the Makasa team did an absolutely wonderful job making this an absolutely perfect vacation! From our first contact planning and throughout the trip Makasa did a wonderful job. We greatly appreciated how helpful Selma was in customizing our trip to the locations and lodges we wanted to stay while also making recommendations she knew we would love. Tom was the perfect guide for our trip and he truly delivered in his very first statement, "you start out as our clients, and we end as friends!" We had such a fun vacation laughing together as we traveled, learning more about the animals, land, and culture, while being surrounded by the amazing beauty of Tanzania. Tom truly help make this the perfect trip of a lifetime and we look forward to another safari with Makasa in the future. While on Safari we met two other Makasa guides and they also were fun, friendly gentleman who represented the Makasa team well. Thank you Tom, Selma, and the Makasa team for the unbelievable experience my mom, daughters, nephew and I will never forget!!!
