Destination Specialists sets the gold standard
We want to extend our biggest thank you to our guide Mr. Pendaeli and our driver PJ from Destination Specialists who made our safari special and memorable. We had the most amazing time on this tour. We took a 4 days customized trip with Destination Specialists in the end of August. We wanted to see Tarangire, Lake Maniara, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Pendaeli was highly responsive, professional, organized, able to answer all our questions, accommodate all our needs and everything went smoothly. We were asked by Mr. Pendaeli if our trip is Anniversary or Birthday one and also what we would like to drink. Our itinerary was very well planned. Mr. Pendaeli was into all details. Even though the pick up from the airport was not included in our itinerary Mr. Pendaeli and PJ came to pick us up from the airport and welcomed us with Maasai shuka. We had a free day before the safari and Mr. Pendaeli offered us a one hour and a half Arusha tour free of charge. While other tours offered boxed lunches, Destination Specialists went above and beyond and provided us with hot meals throughout the day. There was a water bottle in our seats every morning. We were surprised with decorated rooms for our wedding anniversary and treated with cakes, champagne and wine. The guide Pendaeli always made sure we felt happy and safe. We were thrilled to spot a wide variety of wildlife, including the rare leopard and rhino, thanks to Pj’s incredible knowledge, skill and great eye. We’ve seen all the big 5 plus many more.
Destination Specialists sets the gold standard. From the airport pickup to the drop off at the Kilimanjaro airport from the hotel at the end of our journey. Whoever wants to see and experience Tanzania at its very best should travel with Destination Specialists.
We wholeheartedly recommend them with no hesitation.
Asante Sana, Hakuna Matata, Pole Pole :)

Very kind and thorough
We had a private tour that included Kilimanjaro hike, safari in Arusha national park, and a waterfall hike with coffee farm visit.
Everything was so wonderful!! Pendaeli Amos was an amazing manager even making sure l was okay when I was sick and had to miss the first day of activities. I really appreciated that and was able to rest up and join after that. I highly recommend this company for your Arusha safari adventures!!

Went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience.
Great value tour that we were able to bespoke as none of the available tours suited our time frame. We are active so trekked a section of Kilimanjaro, hiked up to a waterfall and had a coffee making demo - I was not expecting this to be good but it was actually great fun, loads of songs and dancing and really engaging, the coffee was great too

They are attentive to all details and couldn't have asked for better outfit.
I have traveled to many destination with my team of volunteer doctors and nurses for the last 25 years. This one by far was the most memorable trip thanks to the staff of Destination Specialists. They paid attention to all details small and big, and made every effort to give us a wonderful time. I strongly recommend them.

Excellent!
Destination specialists were an amazing company to go in a safari with! They provided an ample, delicious lunch under a bamboo shelter overlooking the lake where the cape buffalo and warthogs came to drink. We saw the baboons, giraffes, zebras and baboons up close from the vehicle. Our guides were very knowledgeable of the species we saw and took their time answering our questions. I highly recommend Destination Specialists for your East African safari!

Amazing safari experience
We recently embarked on a remarkable 4-day safari in Tanzania with a tour company that exceeded all expectations. From the moment I booked, the destination specialist ensured a seamless experience tailored to my preferences. Our guide, David, was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about the wildlife and landscapes we encountered in Ndutu and Ngorongoro Crater. The accommodations provided were nothing short of perfect, offering comfort and immersion in the stunning surroundings. Overall, this safari was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, thanks to the expertise and attention to detail of the tour company and the exceptional guidance of David. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an unforgettable wildlife experience in Tanzania.
