Seriousness, Competence, Prudence, Kindness: Extraordinary journey
We have barely been back for 8 days and still can't manage to take down the hundreds of photos that the CHALEMA SAFARIS agency allowed us to take during these 8 days of safari. (1900 in all).
A 9-day trip to the 4 most important parks with one of CHALEMA's best employees and guide: Chabani.
A 28-year-old young man who knows all the corners, all the tracks, all the water points from Tarangiré to Nogorongoro and who leads you for sure to the place where the lions take a nap, or the hippos bathe, to the tree where the leopard languishes. This guide, known to all the others, is really a little prodigy of the savannah!

Unforgettable experience!
Joël from Chalema Tanzania Safaris was able to organize a 5-star trip for us where we were perfectly supervised, without any surprises, except that we discovered exceptional places that lived up to our expectations (landscapes, animals, lodges, services…).We were extremely lucky to be accompanied by Keith, our guide, who was extremely kind, experienced in driving (and it is necessary on both dry and wet tracks) and above all his keenness. and his availability to make us discover the animals. In conclusion, we can only recommend this agency. We therefore thank you for the quality of your work.

Amazing
Exceptional 5-day safari thanks to the attentiveness and patience of joel who concocted a tailor-made stay for us. The accommodations chosen were just crazy!!
So typical (the zebras in front of the lodges, hearing the roar of the lions at night, what a treat!), the food so good and the staff so nice! Incredible!
Thanks also to Hassan, our guide, who was very patient and who knew how to listen during this stay. He brought us so many explanations also on all the animals!
Thanks to you 2, you made this stay an unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable experience!
Hello everyone,
We had the pleasure of enjoying a safari from 8/01/2022 to 13/01/2022 with Chalema Safari.
We found Joël's contact on various forums with other guides and organizations but by cross-checking information, prices and services, and following very good contacts on Whatsapp (Joël answers our questions very quickly and precisely), we chose it for this safari.
In the midst of the COVID recovery period and faced with all the difficulties in traveling (flight cancellations, the essential Covid tests which are slow to reach us, and until the last moment, he listened and facilitated our procedures, really reassuring!!
Joël being already on a 12 day safari, it was Ayubu, a guide and friend of Joël who met us at the airport to settle us in our lodge for the night. An attentive guide, very good driver on difficult tracks, very professional and very nice who made us discover the parks of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Extraordinary experience alone with animals, without tourists, closer to the big five!
The Lodges are immaculate and luxurious! with swimming pool for the end of the day but also the comfortable tents in the savannah are an incomparable experience!
I encourage you if this is your project, to get in touch with Joël, without pressure, at a very good price, and especially in the discovery of this incredible part of the country!!
Unforgettable!
Thanks Joel!!!

Joel the perfect guide !
Magnificent safari carried out with Joel at the beginning of July 2021. Tarangire and Serengeti parks as well as the conservation area and the Ngorongoro crater hold no secrets for him. He has a perfect command of the local flora and fauna and, which is a superb asset, speaks perfect French and is extremely friendly. We immediately felt confident with him, from our arrival at Kilimanjaro airport until our last day punctuated by the visit of downtown Arusha. Impeccable organization, completely privatized safari for the couple or the family at more than reasonable prices. Also thought of our cook Boni who is an integral part of the expedition and who prepares magnificent dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner, all in a good mood. We will do again and recommend without hesitation a safari with Joel!

Wonderful experience!
Hello
We did the safari with Joël's team a few days ago and highly recommend it !!
Joël warmly greeted us at the airport and explained the course of our stay very well.
Our very friendly, discreet and perfectly French speaking guide Faraji gave us a wonderful stay!
The small local dishes tasted during picnics and prepared by the employees of the different lodges are delicious. Far from the sandwiches we might expect.
You can entrust your stay to Joël with your eyes closed, you won't be disappointed.
Have a nice stay!

Fabulous
I took my parents in law and my wife to a safari and after several recommendations, we decided to go ahead with Joel/Chalema.
He is very punctual and always in a good mood. he has an excellent knowledge of wildlife and shares it with great passion.
He speaks French very well and my parents-in-law could speak to him directly which made my stay easier!
Really a great man
