LovebirdSafaris is an amazing tour operator who will explore with you the best of Tanzanias wildlife
In August 2023 we spent 5 days with Adam, the owner of Lovebird Safaris, to go to Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongro Crater.
Adam is the most kind and likable person and he has the unique ability to show you that exploring wildlife is not about rushing from sight to sight, but rather to be still and patient and wait for something to happen.
I don't know how he did it, but he always put his car in a spot where something breathtaking was happening, we just had to wait long enough. We had a family of elephants surrounding the car, a cheetah leaving it´s vista point running across the road right in front of us or Mama Elephant feeding her little baby. He always put us in the perfect spot to take amazing photos, even though we only used our mobile phone´s cameras.
One of the most extraordinary things was the picknick under a tree and using the toilet watching (or being watched?) by giraffes... And in the first days we already managed to see the Big Five, although the rhino was only a very small dot in the binoculars because it was so far away... Adam told us a lot about Tanzania, it´s people and culture and he even told us a Tanzanian song!
In just a few weeks we will visit Tanzania again, going to the Serengeti again and also to Tarangire and Arusha National Park. We will travel with Adam and this time we booked directly with him because his services last year were outstanding and we wanted to make sure that we spend as much time as possible with him, also meeting his wife and his other tour guides.
We cannot recommend Adam and Lovebird Safaris highly enough and we encourage everyone who wants to experience Tanzania and it's wildlife at it´s best to seek out the services of Adam and his team at Lovebird Safaris!

Best Travel Experience EVER!
My wife and I went on safari with Adam (Director of Lovebird Safaris) in February 2020. For us, it was the experience of a lifetime due in large part to Adam. Adam's experience, his love of Tanzania, and his commitment to providing us exceptional service exceeded our expectations. Our journey took us through the Serengeti, Olduvai Gorge, and Ngorongoro Crater / Conservation Area. We left Tanzania totally fulfilled with memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you Adam Mlay!

Adam was cheerful, knowledgeable and respectful of all of our needs.
Adam had the entire trip planned from pickup at the airport, checking us into our hotels/camps, planning side trips and all our meals including our special dietary needs.
He was so easy to talk to and loved having the kids around. The parks were like a second home to him so we were able to see every animal either roaming or at rest. We could tell how much he respected his environment and the well-being of the animals that live there.
Adam, you and your lovely wife are awesome.

Our tour exceeded our expectations. This was a trip of a lifetime!
If I could rate Adam higher than a 5/5, I would. We were a group of 4 ranging in ages 9-70. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable during our entire tour. Adam was extremely passionate, authentic, knowledgeable, and patient. Especially when it came to my 9 year old daughter asking so many questions. He always had a huge smile. We were able to see the big 5.
We toured Arusha and the Cultural Heritage Centre (African Art Gallery) before heading to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tarangrire National Park and the Serengeti. Each day was better than the pervious. The tour van was very comfortable and the food was delicious. We had a few dietary restrictions that were accommodated. Adam became one of the family during our trip. We were very sad to leave at the end of the trip.
I would absolutely do this tour again if given the chance and would HIGHLY recommend Lovebird Safaris.
