Take only memories, and leave only footprints.
A remarkable experience that we recommend everybody to have. To get in contact with local communities and learn about their daily live and get even integrated in, It was a really nice experience and absolutely not like the normal tourist experience!

Everything perfect...
we booked a private trip to Ruanda (Kigali and Golden Monkey Tracking in the Volcanos), Uganda (Gorilla-Tracking) and Tanzania (Serengeti, Ngorongoro Nationalpark). We visited a lot of different Lodges. Every Accommodation was very nice and the staff was very friendly.
We had two different Guides on this trip. Charles for Ruanda and Uganda and Gabriel for Tanzania. Both spoke very good German an was very friendly, really competent and reliable. All our questions were gladly answered. The guys also took care of all the formalities for us and drove us safely by all roads.
In summary we can say: great accommdations, great guides (thanks to Gabriel and Charles ;-), perfect organization, it was a really impressive experience. Thanks so much.

A great organized and unique safari experience in western Tanzania
We had wanted a safari that started in the south of Tanzania and included the unknown west. We had an incredibly great time. The reason was that the planning, the guide, the organization, the accommodations and the experiences were just super. The guide had a great knowledge, so on the one hand we learned a lot and on the other hand we got to see a lot. Also, everything went smoothly. From the first contact to the end, the team of Tecomate gave us great advice, support and always helped us.
It was really a unique trip. In the national parks of Tanzania we got above all an insight into the fascinating animal world. And the time in the flower paradise Kitulo, but also at Lake Tanganyika is something very special. The encounters with the chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park was the absolute highlight of this fascinating trip.
I am more than satisfied, happy and grateful that Tecomate made such a trip possible for us.

They care about everything, help in and situation
We did a 9 days self-drive-tour in the northern part of Tantania.
Our experience with Tecomate began with the pickup at the Kilimanjaro-Airport and the first night in Arusha.
There was our Toyota Landcruiser parked, the next morning Godfrey, one of the owners of Tecomate, arrived and gave us the keys. Godfrey guided us to Arusha center, organized a SIM-Card and made sure that we stay connected via WhatsApp.
During our tour in the rough roads in and outside the parks we had small problems with the electricity of the car. Godfrey answered within minutes and organized a mechanic at our next lodge. The car was repaired during we had dinner.
We also got lost two times on the way to our lodges, google-maps didn't know the route.
Godfrey and Gabriel assisted via WhatsApp and we made it without problems.
Between retourning the car and our transfer to the airport Godfrey and Gabriel visited us in our last lodge in Moshi.
We chatted with them and were glad that they offer more than Safari, they also care for activities with local people.
Our resumee:
- Our next trip to Tanzania will not only be the classic safari, Godfrey has a lot more offers
- We will book directly with Tecomate
- Gabriel will be our guide and driver
Thank you and all the best for you, your families and your business.
Regards

unforgattable trip
we visited 3 weeks the southern national parks to Lake Tanganyika and the Gombe National Park. The trip was chosen especially for us. Due to some health issues, the accommodations were selected based on our needs and were ideally suited for us. The entire communication in advance worked very well.
We were picked up at the airport and given a very warm welcome and then the journey of a lifetime began. The car was in great condition and was cleaned every day. Our guide Gabriel, who is now also our friend, is a very good, safe and experienced driver. He has discovered a lot of animals in the national parks even in hidden places and knows them all, so that we couldn't stop being amazed. The varied and dreamlike landscapes fascinated us again and again. People were always very friendly and accommodating to us, the lodges were of a high standard and we could sometimes see many animals from there.
The southern national parks offer the advantage that only a few tourists visit them. You can enjoy the animal experiences without restrictions and experience Africa in a very original way.
We simply had a great trip and the experiences and impressions will accompany us for the rest of our lives. We can fully recommend this young company with its extremely committed employees

A Great Experience
We had a 1-week safari tour in Tanzania. We climbed to 1st base of Kilimanjaro and then visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and had a culture tour in a local village. Our trip was well-planned and Gabriel our guide was amazing. Truly, he is a one-of-a-kind guide and an exceptional individual. We had a great time!

Fantastic Experience
We spent 6 days in Tanzania with Tecomate Tours in mid-January and had a fantastic time. The trip took us from Mwaze to Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire NP and finally to the foot of Kilimanjaro in Moshi.
The trip was superbly organized. Our guide, Gabriel, came to our hotel in Mwanza the evening before the start and gave us a short briefing. We were accommodated in simple but consistently great camps, where you could hear lions, hyenas and elephants from the safety of your tent at night (each tent with its own bathroom). Unforgettable! We also ate very well at all the camps and felt very comfortable. At Sergenti in particular, we had the perfect safari day: Gabriel led us through hundreds of buffaloes and zebras to leopards, lions and even cheetahs. We owe it all to Gabriel. A really great guide, who is enthusiastic about the animals and has great knowledge and experience. He also speaks very good German and is an excellent driver - he drove us through the roads marked by persistent rain without any problems and we felt completely safe with him.
To top this all up, on our last day we visited a local village close to Moshi and learned about the Chagga culture, followed by local lunch (one of the best meals we had while traveling in east Africa for nearly 4 weeks).
We can warmly recommend Tecomate Tours and Gabriel.

Perfekt Safari Tour
Hello to all Tanzania and Zanzibar tourists,
at the moment (21.10.23 to 06.11.23) we enjoy our stay in Africa.
A few months ago, we booked our Safari with Godfrey from Tecomate Tour. He organized the whole Safari fore us. Everything worked perfectly and he did a great job.
Our Tanzania Safari was already the full success and we enjoyed this wonderful time with our guide Gabriel.
Gabriel speaks fluent German and has an amazing knowledge about plants and wildlife in Tanzania. What we also liked was his enthusiasm for the work and the order and cleanliness during the whole tour.
Finally, we are very happy that we did not book with overpriced European travel agencies.
Best regards Gery & Lisa

great and qualified Safari to Serengeti and Nogorongoro
Thanks to the very competent team at Tecomate Tours, we were able to absolutely enjoy our private camping safari to the south of the Serengeti and the Nogoronoro. This was mainly due to the very good booking and advice, the personal preliminary discussion the evening before the safari and the qualified guide and cook who accompanied us. We felt very safe the entire time and received a lot of background information (information about the landscape, culture, history and of course the animals and animal behavior), no questions were left unanswered. Last but not least, we were impressed by the always fresh and absolutely delicious food from Hermann our chef. He always made sure we were okay! Gabriel, our guide, demonstrated a perfect eye for sightings, routes and great photo spots throughout. The great team of guides and cooks created a very pleasant atmosphere and accompanied us throughout the entire time in a very friendly, humorous manner and with a very good knowledge of the German language. Together we coordinated the day's planning, taking all of our wishes into account. During the safari we took enough time to observe the animals. It was also important to us that all of the equipment was very well maintained (Toyota Landcruiser with a very good engine and options for charging technical equipment) and clean. We left the safari with a huge backpack of memories and thousands of photos, as well as the desire to come back. Thank you for this special time, we would love to go on safari with you again!
