Budget safari exceeded expectations
5/5

We had a great time on our safari. Our guide, Jabir, was awesome. He was the best at spotting animals, routinely checked in with us throughout the trip, and was a genuinely kind and fun person to be around. He even arranged for my boyfriend to have a cake on his birthday! Mathayo our chef kept us full with 3 yummy meals a day that exceeded my expectations of food while camping. Angel at the office was so helpful answering my questions prior to booking and making sure we had all the information to make the trip spectacular on a budget. Finally, the camping was perhaps the most comfortable I've ever been camping. Every night the tent was already set up for us and had a thick sleeping pad or two with a sleeping bag and the facilities all had showers and toilets. I would highly recommend Josh Dreamland Safari. We had such a memorable time not only seeing beautiful animals but also meeting so many fun people along the way.

Nothing was too much trouble for Josh Dreamland Safaris
5/5

We were a party of 5 from Wales, UK and have just returned from an incredible 5 day, 4 night safari with Josh Dreamland Safaris. We flew into the Serengeti and then travelled back to Arusha through the Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangire National Park. Our guide was Dickson who was very knowledgeable about the animals, fauna & flora. We saw lots of animals and stayed in fantastic lodges.

Angel from HQ arranged everything for us. With all the online fraud and scams it was a bit concerning sending large sums of money to the company prior to leaving the UK. However, Angel was in touch all the way through the process and we were picked up from our hotel for our flight from Zanzibar to Seronera and we were greeted by our guide at the airport to start our safari. Lizbet who works with Angel at HO on reservations accompanied us on our safari to experience first hand the safari and accommodation so that they could all improve the customer experience at the reservation stage. So well done Josh Dreamland for this initiative. Lizbet was a joy to have along on the trip with us.

When we were doing our research into visiting the Serengeti, the end of October didn’t seem to be the best time to visit. However, approximately 40% of the migrating animals had returned so there were plenty of zebra, wildebeest, buffalo and gazelles to see. Furthermore, we saw so many lions we lost count, along with a cheetah, a leopard up a tree with its kill, hyenas, elephants, giraffes and warthogs galore. A lot of the animals had recently had their young, which added to the experience. We saw Rhino in both the serengeti and the crater, albeit at a distance.

Tarangire is the park of elephants and it certainly didn’t disappoint. A herd of over 100 elephants were at the riverside and watching the baby elephants playing and being mischievous was a joy. A pack of 8 hyenas also had a staring role whilst they rolled in a mud pool following a recent kill, taking turns at chasing off the vultures waiting for the last pickings. However, as we were leaving for the day we were fortunate to come across a pride of 8 lions very actively getting ready to hunt. They put on quite the display for us, and came so close I actually closed the truck window! Fortunately the zebras got away on this occasion.

Thank you Josh Dreamland we had a fantastic trip.

For my first time on a safari experience, I had an amazing time and this was down to the caring and hardworking staff at Josh Dreamland safari. A lot of information given about the animals and we were made to feel safe on our experience. The safari tour was amazing and I definitely want to come back

We had a great time on Safari, we managed to see the big 5 and there were lots of lions and close up experiences. We went to some lovely tented lodges and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Extremely caring and helpful 🩷
5/5

From the start, Angel in the office was extremely helpful and flexible. On the actual (4 day) safari I was blown away by the beautiful landscapes, abundant animals, fun guide (David), and excellent chef (Matthew) - we were eating 3 course home cooked meals! I didnt have to worry about a thing, everyone in charge made sure I was getting where I needed to be, etc. I ended up in a jam when one of my medical devices battery unexpectedly died, and Angel made arrangements to get a replacement battery delivered to me in the middle of nowhere - literal life savers! I really appreciated how kind and caring everyone was.

We had a great experience with Josh Dreamland. Angel, our coordinator, was great at helping us setup everything for what we were looking for and at our budget level Also she was super helpful in extra logistics like hotels and taxis that made everything easy during our trip. I would book again with them.

It was so Great and we see all the big 5
5/5

It was a very nice experience, we went on safari for 4 days and slept in tents. It was really very nice. We saw the big 5 and were taken to beautiful places. The driver and everyone from the organization are very nice and ensure a very nice environment. The food was delicious and the sleeping arrangements were also very good. There was a network everywhere and the transport was very good!

It couldn't have been better
5/5

With Josh dreamland our dream of a safari came true. We were skeptical at first because the prices were so cheap, but when we were on safari we were more than impressed. We saw the big five and our driver William did everything he could to ensure that we saw as many animals as possible. Apparently you can choose between camping and a slightly better package. We decided on camping and the only difference is really the accommodation; you see the same animals and sometimes eat the same food. Every meal was prepared with love by Richard and always tasted very good. Camping was also very pleasant and we even heard animals at night and saw zebras there at lunchtime. Many thanks to the team! The price-performance ratio is unbeatable and we had an unforgettable 4 days.

Client-oriented organizations
5/5

It has to be considered that the safari was planned on little budget, so the overnight stays consisted mostly of camping and dirty facilities. That are the circumstances which you have to deal with, independently from the provider of the safari.
The safari itself was great! We had a well-informed guide who showed us all the treasures of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. His name is Mandarin and he was a very motivated und informed guy creating a nice atmosphere in our six person group. We had a great cook as well, his name is Pascal. You cannot rate high enough what he did for us! Food was every time delicious.
To conclude, the organization of our tour was extraordinary good. Our contact person was Angel and she was always available for us. She also arranged a short term change of plans as we wanted to visit Lake Manyara but there were almost no animals any more. So in the end we had one more night in the Serengeti.
Thanks to all of you, we had a nice safari!!:)
