A safari with Makasa is an unforgettable experience!
At the end of September/beginning of October we had a great trip to Tanzania! A 10-day safari along the Masai and the beautiful parks Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater and the Serengeti. And then another 5 days of afterglow on Zanzibar.
We came across Makasa via Instagram and their offer immediately appealed to us; private safari with your own guide, a mix of lodges and tented camps, luxury and also back to basic with the sounds of lions and hyenas around your tent, the real safari feeling. No massive accommodations.
Anne helped us put together our program, the contact went very well, always a quick response and we could ask all our questions. There was a lot of emailing back and forth, but nothing was too much. We also spoke to her once via a Teams meeting, that was also very nice.
You have a lot of freedom in putting together your trip, there is no fixed program, you can organize it as you want.
On site, Selma is very accessible for questions if necessary, which gives a good feeling.
And what we found most special was our fantastic guide Jacob. You are on the road together in the jeep all day for 10 days, so that is quite decisive for the experience of your trip, that really makes the difference. You notice that Makasa really pays attention to the quality of the guide. Jacob has so much knowledge about the animals and nature that he shared with us.
It was a very special trip! Thank you Makasa and Jacob!

Fantasy
It was a great safari. With the help of our own private driver (Mohammed Massawe), we saw the big migration crossing the river. The price is more than worth it. Quality is really great.

Perfect
We are very satisfied with Makasa!! They ensured that we have a journey where we didn't have to think about anything. We did the combination Tanzania and Zanzibar. Especially the safari tours and the overnight stay in the Tented Lodges (Rhotia Valley Tented Lodge) were impressive and we are already homesick for it!! Our guide Tom showed us the most beautiful animals (incl. The Big 5) and was able to teach us so much knowledge! We look back with a smile and hope to be able to come back one day.

We had an unforgettable holiday due to Makasa Tanzania Safaris
Makasa organized an splendid trip through Tanzania for us. We were with eleven people and two guides. The guides were very freindly and had a great knowledge of Tanzania and the animals. Robert and Frank started as guides but we left them as friends. the parks, lodges and food were good. Esspecially the tents in the serengeti were unforgettable. Being in the wilderness in a tent was an experience of a lifetime.

What a fantastic 10 days we have had. Makasa had arranged everything down to the last detail for us. The guides were really super. What a lovely men and how much they knew about all the places that we visited. I will recommend anyone who wants to plan a safi to do this through Makasa. Thank you for this unforgettable journey.
