A dependable, caring company with friendly staff and a great tour agent!
I was solo traveling and looking for last minute safaris. I found a great deal on safari bookings for a 3 day safari to Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. I was put into contact with Anna who was very friendly and answered all my questions. Everything from the pickup to drop off was organized as well as a taxi to the airport the day afterwards. The Safari itself was an amazing experience worth every penny. Even when I briefly got sick on the safari, Anna was checking in with me to make sure I was ok. Overall, a great company that genuinely cares about their customers!

Very well organized and wellcoming
Amazing experience for my first safari in Tanzania ! We went for a 3 days and half safari to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. We saw so the big 5, so many girafes, zebras, birds, etc. The guide was professionnal and respectfull of the nature and the animals living. I deeply recommand Porpupine agency!

It was Amazing time!
Asante sana Anna
Many thanks to you Anna and your family.
I joined a 3-day/2-night tour of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
In the Serengeti, we saw the majestic plains of the savanna and the animals while watching the sunset and sunrise.
In Ngorongoro, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery like a" lost world".
I was able to meet animals living in the harmony of nature.
Porcupine Expeditions is quick to reply and let me know if there is anything I don't understand.
Anna is very kind and makes you feel at ease when you sign up for a tour.
I hope you will come and feel this magnificent scenery.

The best experience I'll ever have in my life
I've compared numerous tours, but Anna offered the most reasonable price. They became my family, took care of me, and provided me with accommodation and food. They showed me around the city before the start. They do their best for my safety and fun. I will choose this place even if I choose to tour again.
Thank you 안나, 키베나 and 줄리안

Amazing experience and super super staff!
I didn't know Porcupine expeditions,
it was recommended to me by an Italian person but I must say that I couldn't find anything better.
I did the 5-day safari with them,
trekking Monte ol Donyo Lengai and the day in Moshi (materuni-coffee plantation-chemka )and it was amazing.
Anna is a force of nature, she helped me on my journey, welcomed and treated me as if I were her son.
His daughters Juliana and Kibena treated me like family!
Also their guide David, very knowledgeable and friendly, like all the staff!
I'm sure I'll come back to visit them.
Thanks again for everything! You are very special people and super staff!

Wonderful safari which we will never forget.
Our family of 5 just returned from the trip of a lifetime and are still searching for words to express our joy and gratitude. Thanks to Porcupine Expeditions we experienced unforgettable moments. Anna is very professional and what's more, she's a very nice and helpful person. Responses to inquiries were immediate. Refining the details to meet our requirements was no problem at all. From the moment we left the airport at Kilimanjaro, we were under the care of the team. We didn't have to worry about anything. Every problem like transfer, buying a local sim card or other purchases has been solved immediately. The welcome we received in Arusha made a huge impression on me. Anna, her daughter Juliann and the rest of the team welcomed us with a family dinner. The way Anna treats and welcomes her guests makes it possible to integrate with the locals and learn about their culture, including the basics of the language :). Safari guide Mike was amazing. He tried to make us have as many impressions as possible. He didn't give up until we achieved our goal of seeing the entire Big 5. We had a very helpful cook on our safari. Anna's daughter Juliann is an incredibly nice person who makes sure everything goes well. Even when we went on another trip to Zanzibar, Anna kept texting me to ask if everything was OK with us. I sincerely recommend Porcupine Expeditions if you need to organize a safari in Tanzania and what's more at a reasonable price. I travel a bit around the world but I have never experienced such warm hospitality.
Thank you Anna, Juliann and the Team.

Fantastic Experience!
Booking our 3-day safari through Porcupine was amazing! Anna was a fantastic host in Arusha and made sure everything ran smoothly. We stayed at her hotel in the city and her daughter showed us around the town before we headed out on our safari. Our guide was fantastic and over the three day we were able to see basically every animal in the Serengeti! The big five, plus others, were all hunted down by our guide Mike, who was constantly on the radio with other guides to help track them down.
The only negative experience (which truly wasn’t a big deal, mainly an observation and slight cause of confusion) was how things seemed to be run by different companies? We booked our Safari through Porcupine, who picked us up and made sure everything went smoothly, but our actual guide worked for a different company. Then, after our Safari, our guide got us a driver to take us back to town, who then gave us to another driver to take us to our hotel. Everyone seemed to be in contact with each other, but it just seemed strange jumping from one car to another and not sticking with the one company the entire time, especially with the little amount of communication that we received each time.
We had one hiccup where our driver was confused on the way back, but we called Anna and she took care of everything, even paying the driver for the extra time he drove us, so we didn’t have to deal with it at all. Overall, we had an incredible time, Anna was amazing and very helpful in all regards. I’d highly recommend them for your trip to the Serengeti!

Unforgettable safari experience with Porcupine Expeditions and Mike!
Did a 3 day safari in a 7-person jeep, 2 days in the Serengeti and 1 day in the Ngorongoro. We started in Arusha, where we were welcomed by Anna and her team/family, who were some of the most caring and welcoming hosts I’ve experienced. They picked us up from the airport and provided accommodation. Our tour guide was Mike, who is clearly very experienced. In just 3 days we were able to see a cheetah, a leopard, lions, a rhino, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, elephants , vultures, multiple types of gazelles, hyenas, and many more. Mike was not only extremely kind but also funny, and made the trip an exciting and relaxing experience for us. We did one night in bungalow houses in the Serengeti, and one night camping in the Ngorongoro, where we saw elephants grazing 20 meters from the tents. The food was really tasty the whole trip, and never got sick, props to the chef for all his hard work. Overall an unforgettable trip, can’t recommend Porcupine expeditions, Anna, Mike, and the entire team enough!!
