Budget safari tour of excellent standards
Budget safari tour of excellent standards. You spent 2 nights in a nice hotel/lodge, and 3 nights in safari campsites, where you are guaranteed the most beautiful sunrises. The food is so tasty and varies from every meal! (beer + wine is also included :)) - both the guide/driver and the chef were so kind, open and helpful with everything, you might need. I am diabetic, and thus I was worried that I could not keep my insulin cool and safe during the day. However, there is a little fridge in the vehicle, which was perfect for storing my medicine - it was genuinely an incredible experience, that you don’t want to miss out on!

5 Days Group Tour in Tanzania
Wow! What an amazing safari experience! My wife and I traveled to Tansania and we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos (couldn't find the leopard to round out the big 5) and so much more! This safari is an excellent mid-budget safari experience. If you like to rough it a little but still have someone cook for you and get you lodging this is for you. It's not a luxury trip per se (seeing all the animals 100% makes up for that and besides you are in Africa who needs luxury when you have hakuna matata!) but this safari gives you a local experience from a local guide, and it does not disappoint. Pofu holidays also set up all of our airport transfers both arriving to Kilimanjaro and leaving to Zanzibar! The only experience I have to be prepared for is carrying out a lot of cash to pay for the safari in cash. It feels a little sketchy paying for something with so much cash, but remember you are in East Africa and most things are still done in cash. Overall the experience was amazing and be prepared to see a ton of animals in their natural habitat! Hakuna Matata!

Awesome trip with Pofu holidays
On our January trip to Tanzania, my friend and I were fortunate to have Gerald of the Pofu holidays as our guide for 5 days. He truly made our visit special. We visited Lake Manyara, Ngorogoro Crater, and the Nduto Migration Camp. Gerald did his very best to be sure we had ample time to enjoy both the magnificent scenery and the spectacular wildlife. He taught us many words in Swahili and a song! When our flight home was canceled requiring an extended time in the Arusha area, we requested Gerald as our guide for that time.
The behind-the-scenes staff at Pofu holidays had everything smoothly arranged for our lodging and the required Covid testing so we could return home. I don't think you can go wrong if you select them for your trip.

Incredible once a lifetime Safari
6 Days Budget Safari The 6 day safari was amazing. We saw a lot of animals and most of them were incredibly close (1-2m). Our guide David was very experienced and managed every difficulty with easiness. Our cook was Denis to make the best meals for us and definitely succeeded in cooking amazing dishes. Both David and Danis were very kind-hearted and their goal was to give us the best safari experience they possibly could. I was traveling alone and joined 5 others in the safari jeep. We slept 4 nights in hotels and 3 nights in tents in the national parks. The tents are very big and have real mattresses. The camping was very adventurous because the animals come very close to the tents at night. I cannot put into words how grateful I am for this experience and I would definitely recommend SPofu Holidays

Breathtaking Tansania-Trip
We had a very very nice 8-days tour with Fred and another guide.
We did safaris in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti National park. We saw all the big five and a lot more animals very near.
The accommodations was breathtaking, really really nice.
Every time good food and very nice personal at the accommodations.
Also we did a bicycle-tour at Lake Manyara, and visited many Massai-villages and hadzabe bush people, where we could interact with them and see how they live.
We learned a lot about Tansania and the culture here.
With Fred you will have a lot of fun, he knows everything and you feel very comfortable.

Best safari I have ever worked with.
The tour operator was very courteous and knowledgeable. Would do anything to go above and beyond for their clients. Answered all of our questions. He knew about every animal and their habits.

Everything was great! Easy to book, payment enough upon arrival, reliable company, amazing adventure
After a detailed discussion we got a tailormaide (private tour) itinerary, which reflected all our wishes. We didn’t have to pay anything in advance, we could pay everything upon arrival.
Everything went smooth, how we expected from the pickup at the airport all the way —> to the drop off at the airport.
We met Paul just on our first night, he was very nice. However Emmanuel, our tour guide and Moody our chef was with us during the whole trip. They made their best to bring the most out of our trip. They really fulfilled our wishes, and they were flexible throughout the whole trip. The safaris were breathtaking. We saw the Big5, and so much more! The food was delicious. The campings were cool.
Can definitely recommend Pofu Holidays! :)

Absolutely amazing service from start to finish
Had an absolutely amazing time with our tour guide Richard. We done the 3 day safari and every time we asked to see anything he went out his way to try find it for us. Great English and kept us safe the whole time. Great accommodation organised for us also. Great communication from Paul from start to finish. Recommend booking your holiday with Paul! 5 star review

We had a very good time with our super guide Godwin! Pofu holidays took care of us from the airport to the end. The trip was perfectly customized according to our needs. Lodges were above our expectations and our guide manage to find all the big 5! Kids enjoyed a lot this trip. Communication has always been easy and quick. We would definitely recommend this agency in our network. We will come back but this time for the cheetahs!
