Incredible memories!
When I started planning a safari for my wife, our 7 year old son and me, I requested quotes from several companies. Boris from Akondo Adventures contacted me shortly to discuss our wishes and best options available and define a plan that best suited our dreams and at a very reasonable price. His patience and honesty conviced us to trust him. And when our flight got distrupted and we arrived a day late and without our luggage, he proved us right as he adapted the plans, even the pick-up location, to avoid us loosing all the investment, and even supported us to get our missing luggage.
Our guide Richard was great, thanks to his extensive knowledge of wildlife and instinct, we were able to see 4 out of the big 5 closeby, and many other animals. His communicative hapiness made our trip even more enjoyable. He even played with our son whenever he had a chance.
We leave with incredible memories if a dream come true. Heartful thanks Boris and Richard for this incredible adventure!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with A Personal Touch
We recently went on a 4-day safari with Akondo Adventures, visiting Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro National Parks, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the very start, Boris, the owner, was extremely responsive and quick with his answers. He addressed all of our questions clearly and to the point. What really stood out was the personal touch—Boris took the time to meet us in person both when we arrived and before we set off for our safari, which was such a thoughtful gesture and made us feel really welcomed.
Our guide, Rich (Richard) was amazing. He was always in a great mood, making sure we had everything we needed and asking lots of questions about what we wanted to see or experience. He was incredibly patient, never rushed us, and took his time to ensure we had the best possible experience. On top of that, his knowledge about the animals and parks was impressive, and he gave us valuable insights not only about the wildlife but also about life in Tanzania. Richard also had an incredible eye for spotting animals—even while driving, he knew where to look and spotted many animals for us. Thanks to him, we saw really a lot of what the wildlife in Serengeti and the other parks can offer!
Akondo Adventures was very well-organized, responsive, and well-prepared from start to finish. If you’re looking for a safari experience that combines professionalism with a personal, friendly touch, I can highly recommend them!

Best tour agency with kind and friendly workers, who are real experts in their field!
Dear travellers and everyone who wants to become one!
In June 2024 I fullfilled my dream and travelled to Tanzania. Akondo Adventures made it very easy and comfortable for me to start the journey from Germany to Tanzania. Very excited I started to the new country. From Frankfurt I flew to Arusha. Boris, the founder of Akondo Adventures, picked me up at the airport and brought me to my hotel. After one day relaxing and enjoying the traditional food of Tanzania I went to Arusha Nationalpark for safari. It was an adventure of a lifetime! I saw a lot of animal in their natural habitat. It was very impressing! The guide, his name was Bwana, knows the Arusha Nationalpark very well and knows where you can find even the rare black and white colobus monkeys. But my highlight were a group of giraffes who had a small baby with them. It was just two to three months old, Bwana told me. We had a tasty lunch with a view over the lake Momella.
All in all I thank Akondo Adventures and specially Boris to make my dream come true. I won’t forget the time in Tanzania and I miss the peaceful and wonderful nature there. If you have the chance, take the time and visit Tanzania with Akondo Adventures! Enjoy, I’m excited to read your review here soon! Greeting and hakuna matata, Lena from Germany :)

They’re perfect
For a vacation that should feel like a "once in a lifetime" trip, this certainly lived up to the name. We can't thank Boris with Akondo Adventures enough for their dedication and attention to detail! From our first conversations through the trip itself, talking with Boris felt like speaking with a familiar friend. With planning, all of his recommendations were excellent, and the entire experience was magical. We went back and forth between different experiences and lodges, and Boris was accommodating to all of our questions until we had the perfect trip booked. We felt like we had 3 totally different vacations all rolled into one, and the level of service along the way was unparalleled. Between the lodgings, the locations, the food, the adventure, and the amount of time recommended for each portion of the trip, we really felt like Boris somehow put together everything that we didn't quite know how to articulate about what we would hope to see in a honeymoon, and translated it all into the perfect trip. Throughout the trip Boris always checked in and let us know any updates along the way. Thank you!

great safari experience
Our group of friends had an unforgettable safari experience. Our guide Mbwana knew every possible road through the vast Serengeti and knew where to take us to make sure we saw every type of animals there in the park. The camps in the bush were all quite good with tasty food and basic but good facilities. Every day was an adventure. We had two small children in our group and Francis paid special care to make sure they were comfortable and happy. Our trip could not have gone better and we highly recommend this tour company and especially our guide Mbwana.

10/10 for the elephants
Me and my two friends decided to visit Tanzania. We wanted to go on safari to see the elephants and other wild animals. :)
It was our dream for a long time. In June 2024 we finally arrived in Tanzania. In Arusha the team of Akondo Adventures picked us up and our journey started. We went together to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We saw a lot of wild animals and beautiful landscapes. Our highlight was to see the elephants in their natural habitat. We recommend a safari with Akondo Adventures. It was a pleasure for us and we're sure it wasn't the last time, we visited beautiful Tanzania.

Helpful friendly tour operator
Boring arranged for our 3 day safari at Nyerere National Park. He planned a boat safari, a game drive, a bush walk and a Masai village visit and arranged transportation, hotels and meals from Dar es Salaam. We had English speaking guides throughout the trip and he even arranged a private fireside dinner for us on the second night. We highly recommend Akondo Adventures.
