Attentive and diligent collective of people
First of all Msangai answered my question about possibility to do the Covid pcr test during trip (I traveled to another country right after safari). And they were the only company that answered with valuable details.
Eventually they registered me for the test, modified the trip to make it and delivered me the results. As you see nothing of it was included in safari, but they answered to my custom request.
During the adventure our guide James was attentive and we felt that we could stop any time in any place to see sceneries or animals we wanted. When we wanted to see leopard our guide started to find possible places. Also we got answers to all our questions and lot’s of additional information about local fauna and flora. Everything was friendly and there were no communication barriers.
Car was good and reliable. We always made stops in places with washrooms. We always had fresh water. So everything was comfortable. Also we got transfer from and to airport. So Msangai managed all our trip within Tanzania.
About hotels: We stopped at bush camp for two days. And it was one of best experiences we had, because you feel really close to locale nature. Though it had hot shower and wi-fi. So don’t hesitate to get there in your trip
All in all I definitely can recommend safari with “Msangai Adventure Safaris” and may be will take another trip myself.
P.S.
Small advices to those coming for safari:
*No special safari uniform is really needed, just comfortable clothes for the car
*Don’t forget sunscreen
*Some roads are dusty, so get ready for it
*if you have no special camera just get additional lense for your phone. It will be enough

Amazing experience
We booked 7 day safari and it was great. Our driver answered all of our questions, stopped every time we wanted to and made sure we saw every animal as good as possible. The accommodations were all very nice, especially the Serengeti Bush camps (the staff there was also amazing). I would recommend everyone to take the 7 day safari because you have time to see everything without hurrying. If it is migration time it is worth visiting the Northern part of the Serengeti. And hearing lions during the night is something you will never forget. I would recommend this company because the price is good for what you get, and the staff is so kind.

Unforgettable Experience and Memories
From the first time Mr. Zeeshan responded to our initial inquiry until we got dropped off at the Arusha airport when our safari ended, everything has been a very pleasant experience for us. Team Msangai is very responsive, flexible, punctual, trustworthy, reliable and knowledgeable. Eric coordinated everything flawlessly, Julius and James executed with great attention to details, customer satisfaction and rules & regulations.
You can choose your own accomodations or go with their recommendations, depending on your taste and budget. Msangai team knows the intricate but important details about making your safari a success and memorable. They are also fun, accomodating and kind people (to the clients, nature and the animals). At the end of out trip, we left with new friends that we would recommend to anyone wishing to go for a well thought and executed safari trip. Keep up the good work guys and hope to see you soon again.

Amazing experience! The organisation was great and our guides was just perfect!
1/ Safari
We spend 2 days in Tanzania (before going to Zanzibar) : Tarangire + Ngorongoro
The organisation was perfect thanks to Eric : Someone picked us directy at the airport (and then we spent 2 days with the guide (Frank)
The guide was amazing!! He was very very kind, very FUN and very interesting! He explained us a lot of things about the wild animals
And the most enjoyable was that he was dedicated to make our safari AMAZING!! We were ALWAYS the first car to see the animals like lions eating a gnou!! Incredible to see!
We spent the night at the Marera Valley lodge which was great !
Next time we will visit Serengeti (2 days min)
PS: For Ngorongoro follow the guide's advice and wake up early!
2/ Zanzibar
Eric then gave us the contact of a guide in Zanzibar (Mussa). Mussa was also perfect! He speaks french and english very well! He picked us at the airport too and booked for us all the activities that we wanted at very good prices (we discussed with some other tourists who spent a lot more money)
So a special thank you to all the team!! Everything was great thanks to them!!
PS: If you need a flight between Arusha and Zanzibar : do not book with Precision Air!! or read your emails twice every day..
A Wonderful Safari Experience
Overall it was a pleasant experience working with Msangai Adventure Safaris.
They were prompt to respond to questions over email. Most of the email correspondence came from the owner Zeeshan. The rate for the 5 days 4 night safari I had was $2390. It included a lodge the night before and after my Safari, which was nice. You pay 15% of the fee upfront with a bank transfer or over Paypal if you want to use a credit card. If you use a credit card there is a 5% fee to cover what Paypal charges, but I found it the easiest option because I booked last minute and didn't have time to go through my bank.
When I landed in Arusha, Eric the Director of Operations that lives in Arusha, greeted me at the airport and took me to the Zawadi House Lodge where I stayed the night before and after my safari. The lodge was nice and had decent internet and charging in the rooms.
The morning my safari started I met my guides Frank and James. Frank is an industry pro that has been leading safaris for a while. James was training under him, but both knew their animals well. Over the 5 days we spent a day in Lake Manyara, two days in Serengeti, a day in Ngorongoro Crater, and a day in Tarangire all National Parks.
During the safari I stayed at the Marera Valley Lodge for two nights. It is a very nice lodge. The dinner they give is a four course feast so make sure to not snack too much during the day. It was nice getting to swim in their pool after a long day of being in the car. While in Serengeti National Park we stayed at the Central Serengeti Tanzania Bush camp. My "tent" was a large canvas structure that was a tent in name only. It had two queen sized beds as well as a shower and bathroom in the tent. Charging for phones and wifi was available at their lounge/bar area, but not in the tent. Overall wasn't a problem as there is plenty of time to charge during dinner or leaving your phone there overnight.
Overall I saw much more than I could have dreamed off! I got to see part of The Great Migration, all of the big 5, a few over 50 lions (some of them even up close!), and so much more. Some highlights for me were getting to see a lion hunting, a group of cheetahs play on the road just a few feet away from us, a herd of elephants cautiously cross by a patch of tall grass where lions were hiding, and a large hippo trotting around like it was light as a feather. There were too many to count, but it was a very memorable experience. Frank was an expert at knowing where to go and how to position the car for the best viewing of all the animals. James and Frank dropped knowledge throughout the whole trip and were very easy to get along with.
I would highly recommend using Msangai Adventure Safaris!
