Upendo and Frank were amazing! They kept me safe and cared that I wo'nt feel alone but feel good.
I trecked Meru Mountain with them. It was great adventure and the best in my life. Through all the way- Upendo and Anderson the managers took care of me.. before and after the treck- Upendo came and stayed with me for a long time, even though I didnt exept this. Because I traveled alone this compeny made sure I would feel happy and that everithing I asked for- I'll get. My guide at Meru- Frank, was the best! He bacame my friend, tought me a lot, nade me lough and allways took care of me. He made my trip to be fun but also ecxited.Frank brought with him a lot of sense of humor and a big heart, and I thank for him about all that.

So that's it.. two amazing weeks of the trip to the continent of Africa, Tanzania have ended. The decision to fly and travel with Afrimine was simply the right decision. Many thanks to the afrimine team in Tanzania, who treat their guests with all the attention and the best effort, involved with love, to show to the maximum what Africa has to offer.

friendly yet professional
We had an incredible safari trip around Tanzania visiting Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. Afrimine Tours arranged everything for us and it was amazing. Our driver guide was amazing. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about wildlife, it really made the experience amazing. We had been on safari to Tanzania 5 years ago, but this time we learned and saw so much more. Afrimine Tours did a great job organising all the transfers and accommodation. It all went off without a hitch.

Extraordinary, professional yet supportive team
I was with my wife lucy and we enjoyed the whole experience. We were lucky to be guided by Emmanuel who is really a nice guy. He is patient and knowledgeable. Anyway we started by the trek to the waterfalls which was great then we enjoyed the “coffee show” given by the locals and eventually went to the hot spring where my wife and I enjoyed swimming in the hot spring water.
Overall, I’d recommend Afrimine Tours as it is well organised and we have had alot of fun
WOW
"Africa changes you forever, like nowhere on earth. Once you have been there, you will never be the same."
I loved the whole experience from the booking process with Ben via Whatsapp/Email and the pick up at the airport to the arrival in Moshi at the Guesthouse.
I deliberately chose Afrimine tours.
The safari was a private safari over 7 days.
1. Day in Moshi, 2. Day Chemka hot springs, 3. Day Tarangire NP, 4. + 5. Day Serengeti, 6. Day Ngorongoro Crater, 7. Day Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee Tour in the village.
The service Ben offered me exceeded all my expectations. I thought it was great how smoothly everything went.
The first day in Moshi was intended for recreation and getting to know. We visited the local market, explored the city, visited the coffee plantations and even got a view of Kilimanjaro with its snow-capped summit to welcome.
The second day was a great experience. With the Boda Boda (scooter) we drove 18km through the villages, so I immediately had the feeling what the village life looks like.
The Chemka hot springs are located in the middle of the dry savanna. An oasis surrounded by palm trees with a turquoise-blue basin with warm water and the best bathing conditions. A dream with fish spa included!
The 3th day was the beginning of a breathtaking series of adventures.
The Tarangire NP, is absolutely worth seeing. Many elephants, enormous baobab and on the watering holes we have observed the African life of the animals.
Ben is an excellent spotter and has surprised me many times with a sighting that I only discovered after a few moments.
On the 4th day we went to the Serengeti. We had an early descent from the accommodation to discover as much of the beauty of this wilderness as possible.
"Serengeti shall never die" stands at the entrance gate to this stunning natural wonder. This beautiful landscape initially surprises with a wide plain. The camera ready, have also welcomed us right at the beginning a lion family, who have been lying in the midday heat in the high grass.
Ben is an excellent driver and has always put the jeep in a good position so that I could capture unforgettable moments with my camera.
I was very impressed by the stories Ben tells every single sighting. Observing animal behaviour and Ben's knowledge was an inconceivable experience.
The day was filled with adventure!
In the evening we arrived at Tanzania Bushcamp. The welcome to the camp was wonderful. After a refreshment and briefing, I moved into my fixed tent with a heavenly view of grazing buffalo and wildebeest. The tent was very comfortable and huge. The bathroom was pure luxury after a long day in the wilderness.
The 5th day was an early start. Right after we left the camp, we ran into a python that was looping over the path. A fascinating sight of this 4 meter long snake. We admired huge herds of wildebeest, we enjoyed lunch in the middle of the open plain.
It was like the movie "Beyond Africa." Wide plains, herds of wildebeest and zebras at a close distance and we in the middle.
The nights at the camp were filled with shouts of nature. To hear hyaenes and lions, the buffalo who raced in front of my tent at night and to be so close in nature made me listen awesomely.
On Day 6, Ben came up with a very special surprise for me. We visited a boma of the Massai at Ngorongoro Crater. They showed me their life in the clay-built huts.
Wrapped in a shuka (traditional Massai blanket) and with typical Massai jewelry around my neck, I danced with the women and the Massai men showed their jumping power.
I can only recommend this experience!
At Crater we visited the hippo pool for lunch and explored the plains. Many animals were on a hike to the waterholes.
Experiencing this natural wonder in its diversity is a unique experience.
Filled with these impressions, I left this incredible nature with a heavy heart.
On the 7th day Ben went with me to his village called Materuni at the lopes of Kilimanjaro.
We made a small 5 km long hike to the waterfall. The waterfall itself lies in the settlement area of the Chagga and is the second largest waterfall in Tanzania. On the way we ate local bananas and saw Chamaeleons. The waterfall is gigantic and a welcome refreshment.
In the village I was warmly welcomed to a very tasty lunch. The whole coffee making process was explained and shown, we danced, sang, stomped and laughed.
An unforgettable day and a successful conclusion of this unique safari!
Dear Ben, I would like to thank you very much for this Safari of my life time!
The energy you exert to explain this unique nature to me, the beautiful places you have shown me and the incredible moments with the wildlife have made this journey an unforgettable experience for me!
