Local company that can show you the non-touristy places - we had the best experience!
5/5

My family and I went on a seven days tour with destination specialist in January 2023. The very experienced guides took us to see small villages and on safari. We had the best days we could have wished for. All the guides were very kind, helpful and knowledgeable about the animals, culture and history of Tanzania.

Since destination specialist is a local company we were able to get some amazing experiences in places that tourist do not normally go. One guide took us to his home town a Maasai village in the mountains. It was tailored for our needs and we got to see a perfect mix of safari, local culture and history on the tour.

I like that the company is local and hire local people so we were not supporting a large overseas company. The price was also very fair compared to other operators. Will give my best recommendations for destination specialist.

5/5

Emanuel was an amazing guide and driver. He is an amazing source of information on culture, as well as the the animal and plant life in the parks. He answered every question with patience and useful/nteresting details.
We felt safe and welcome on every step of our trip and can't wait to travel with him again when we return!
He also has an uncanny knack for spotting and pointing out wildlife we never would have seen without his incredible guidance.

The best in the industry!
5/5

My wife and I visited beautiful Tanzania and we have had the most incredible experience. And that’s all thanks to our guide Pendaeli and our driver Philip. These two are knowledgeable, friendly, trustworthy and very reliable. Communication with our guide Pendaeli was very easy and shortly after I reached out to him, he curated an entire 7 day itinerary complete with accommodations and airport pickup and drop off. He and Philip are professionals and they are experts at what they do. I highly highly recommend that you come and see the splendour and the beauty of Tanzania and make sure you do it through the Destination Specialists.

It was one of the wonderful and unforgettable trips of our lives, especially the children. We really felt and experienced the meaning of the word "nature" in Tanzania. I really advise and recommend this tour operator to discover the amazing nature of that beautifully unique part of the world.

Great safari tour and guide
5/5

We had a great experience with Pendaeli and Elie. All the tour was organised following our wishes and budget. We got very good prices, and even surprises at the hotel, thanks to them. We were travelling with our family (3 children aged from 2 to 12) and we had really appreciated the efforts they did to make our journey fantastic and adapted to children. The guide knowledge was huge and we learnt many things with him. Besides, he was really nice, reliable, safe driver and always trying to do his best so we can meet animals. Unforgettable experience and people !
