Perfect experience / perfect experience
Anna, it was excellent… she was not on the safari, but the communication was always very good! The safari, the truth is that I am not a fan of animals, but it was fantastic! I highly recommend it and anna was very helpful at all times! God was also very good and attentive, he is a guide for the city who works with Anne… he took me to see the waterfall and the hot spring that I also recommend, the coffee plantation did not drive me crazy, but it is close to the waterfall!

Above and beyond!
Before my trip I inquired with four different safari companies. Anna, the owner of Porcupine Expeditions was the first one to reply, and did so within about two hours.
After that she remained incredibly responsive and answered all my questions right away. This made me feel I was in good hands, and I stopped worrying about the company being small and relatively new.
When I first got to Arusha, Anna really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. Since I was traveling alone, she took time off her day to give me a tour of the city herself!
Also, later that night she arranged for the company's driver, Godi, who also drove me to Arusha and was likewise a very nice and kind person, to take me out to explore the city's nightlife since we were about the same age.
The next day began the safari itself. I joined a group of 6 more people from different nationalities and we had a great time together. Our driver/guide, Jonas, was extremely knowledgeable and professional and would spot animals from very far away, time and time again. He was also a great storyteller and a fun person to be around.
Overall it was an amazing experience and I am very glad I went with Porcupine Expeditions! If you have time I would also recommend going on the waterfall and hotsprings tour the day after!

Absolutely perfecr
I cannot recommend Anna enough when it comes to booking your safari. She went above and beyond in every detail and nothing was ever too much. She made the trip super special for us and was just an all round pleasure to communicate with. The safari itself was amazing and just the right amount of time. We seen everything incl the big 6 and the trip just went smoothly from start to finish. Thank you porcupine expeditions for helping us has the experience of a lifetime and thank you Anna for going the extra mile

Very caring and lovely persons, gave us an unforgettable experenice. Would reccomend
Anna from Porcupine Expeditions is a professional. She is a lovely person who keeps their promises. The organization thinks along with you about your wishes and gives advice in what to do and what not. The drivers and guides they work with are experienced and very kind. Anna communicated good with us during the 2 weeks, she was always available and took good care of us.
We did a 5 day safari in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. 3 very different national parks but they all have their own beauty. The food during the 5 days were outstanding. The chef really put in the work. We stayed in tents in Serengeti and Ngorongoro and we would recommend this to everyone because it's quite an experience to sleep next to buffalo's, elephants, zebra's and lions.
We also did a 6 day Kilimanjaro climb - Marangu route. Everything was well organised and on schedule. We were only with 2 people in a group and had lots of fun with the guides, chef and porters. The guides were professionals and thanks to them we were able to reach the summit. Just like on safari the food was very good.
1 guide we would like to mention in particular and that was Chalikoo. He gave us a city tour of Arusha and went with us to do a coffee tour, visit the Moshi hot springs and the Materuni waterfalls. Chalikoo is a very nice person, who knows all about the Arusha/Moshi region and really gives you the feeling you know him for years. From stranger to friend in no time!
Porcupine expeditions is a reliable, pleasant and well-communicating organization that we definitely recommend.

Well planned, well prepared and an amazing experience
I contacted several companies and found Anna's offering and communication the best.
Anna was really helpful, gave me tips on what to pack and helped me with other travel arrangements.
When we arrived in Arusha, Anna came to meet us the day before our safari and gave us some information, the next day we got picked up from our hotel and brought to the safari car.
We booked a group safari as we love to meet people and that was really a great choice.
Our guide, Mike was absolutely brilliant, great guy all around and we had lots of fun and laughs with him!
We loved every part of the experience and we couldn't recommend any one better than Anna and her team!
We loved the greenery of the area in November as it is the rainier season, but all of the national parks were green, there was less dust on the roads, there were less cars but also the weather was great in the high 20s.
We did the tour that included Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro NP and Manyara NP and we saw all of the big 5 including many babies! Absolutely an amazing 5 days and we felt very well cared for!!
Asante sana to Anna, our guide Mike and the amazing 4 people we met and spent 5 days with!
