Exceptional
5/5

Hello, I just returned from a 3 day trip to Moshi, Tanzania organized by ZAF Tours and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the onset planning stage to the very end, staff at ZAF Tours were polite, friendly and prompt in their replies. They provided sufficient information at all times leaving no room for uncertainty or confusion. They tailored our travel plans meticulously to suit our preferences and needs.
Upon arrival to Moshi, ZAFs welcome was warm and on time. Their drivers and guides were always friendly, professional and easy to communicate with as they shared their knowledge about Moshi town and significance of various tribes and cultures.
We visited Masai Village, Materuni Falls with the coffee tour (my favorite), Serval Wildlife and Chemka Hot Springs (kids favorite) in the three days we were there.
At each excursion, the guides were very knowledgeable, friendly and truly entertaining.
Bony and his colleagues made our experience at Materuni Falls and the coffee tour unforgettable. His demonstration on how coffee is planted and harvested was informative, and the process of grinding and roasting the coffee was so entertaining - it felt like we were at a party - it was truly an unforgettable experience!
If you are planning to visit Tanzania, I would highly recommend ZAF tours as they provide impeccable service to their clients. Their commitment to client care and providing a unique, one of a kind experience sets them apart. Zaf Tours have gone out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable and taken care of 24/7 while we were in Moshi - this included, constant check-ins from Huzaifa and also taking care of our dinner and transportation during after hours - which was well beyond our expectations.
My next goal is to venture onto Kilimanjaro which I look forward to planning with ZAFS Tours without hesitation.

Excellent safari experience with Zaf’s tours
5/5

I reached out to Zainab about organising a safari tour for 4 days around the Tarangire national park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater.
Zainab responded promptly and gave me a suggested itinerary based on my preferences, with different budget options offered. Zainab was patient as the itinerary was chopped and changed until it suited us. We had only 4 days but wanted to maximise on our experience. Zainab was very transparent throughout the process and I felt very happy booking with Zafs tours. The quotes were also very reasonable, particularly considering we had our own driver and chef for the entire duration of the trip.

We enjoyed a camping safari, one night at Migombani camp and 2 nights in the Serengeti. Migombani camp was truly lovely and had great amenities for a campsite, including a pool! The campsite in the Serengeti was more basic, but the experience is unparalleled.

Our driver was Ramos and our cook was Zakariyya. Our dietary requirements were catered for (halal) and we enjoyed delicious warm food throughout the trip. Each day Zakariya made us delicious and wholesome breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Ramos was a delight as well and was attentive to our preferences. When I asked if we could try to experience calving season, Ramos took us to Lake Ndutu. While we didn’t see actual birthing of calves, we did see wildebeest in their many thousands (tens of thousands? It’s hard to tell!) and even saw them crossing the lake en masse. It was truly a surreal David Attenborough moment.

For the rest of the trip, Ramos drove around diligently, trying to show us as much as possible. He took us on sunrise and sunset game drives, and we saw so many amazing things, including the big five (including the elusive rhino at Ngorongoro!) and a cheetah that came onto our vehicle!

We had such a great experience with Zaf’s tours and I would wholeheartedly recommend booking with them.

Exceptional Safari and Hike Experience with ZAFS Tours!
5/5

I recently had the pleasure of going on a 3-day adventure with ZAFS Tours, and I cannot recommend them enough. Our journey began with a thrilling 2-day safari exploring Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park, where we saw all the big 5 animals, except for the leopard! Day 3 was also incredible, we visited the Materuni Waterfall and then had a really fun coffee tour with members from the Materuni clan of the Chagga tribe. There was nothing but positive vibes during the tour!

A special shout-out to Bony, our guide during the hike. As novice hikers, we underestimated how slippery the trail would be since it had just rained the night before, but Bony was incredibly helpful, ensuring we navigated the trail safely. His guidance made the hike not only manageable but so enjoyable!

Booking our trip was a breeze, thanks to the owner, Huzeifa. He was very accommodating with my time constraints and crafted a fun-filled itinerary that perfectly suited me and my 11-year-old son.

Our transfer driver, David, was outstanding. From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro airport to our departure, David was exceptional. He even joined us on our hike, showing immense patience and kindness as he helped my overly cautious son climb the trail. David’s genuine spirit and support were greatly appreciated.

Overall, ZAFS Tours delivered an incredible experience with top-notch service and attention to detail. I recommend them for an unforgettable safari and adventure in Tanzania!

Well planned and executed
5/5

I decided to go to Tanzania at the last minute, but Huzaifa from Zafs made the process incredibly smooth. He was very responsive and made me feel safe in a new country. He not only organized the Kilimanjaro trek and safari but also helped with all the pick-ups and drop-offs in the middle. Because of his recommendations, I got to experience some incredible lodges in Arusha.

The 6-day Machame trek was INCREDIBLE and so well planned. My guide, Prosper, was extremely knowledgeable and encouraging throughout the process. The chef and the porters were excellent. It's something I will remember for a lifetime.

I would highly recommend working with Zafs to my friends and family because they tailor the adventures to you. The quotes are also reasonable.
