Just Excellent!
We had such a wonderful time in Tanzania!! Desiree really understood our interests and together with Fay they made our wishes come true, everything just seemed possible! They go the extra mile and thanks to afroriginal we didn't have to worry about a thing, everything was perfectly arranged from arrival unto departure. Also our driver/guide Fay had so much knowledge about wildlife and environment, we really learned a lot from him during our safari's. Also the accommodations recommended by Desiree where perfect and very comfortable. We are very happy that we have booked this trip of a lifetime with Fay and Desiree!

Trip of a lifetime!
We are seasoned travellers and want unique experiences. Afroriginal got it right - Desiree spent time understanding what we were looking for, and got us a great combination of beautiful wildlife parks, wonderful lodges and small scale campsites, accompanied by a very friendly and knowledgable driver, and some nice R&R in Zanzibar in a beautiful family hotel. In two weeks we saw so many different ecosystems, and each and every overnight stay was worth while. I know there are many tour operators offering similar experiences and you may think Serengeti is the same whatever operator takes you there, but I disagree. It is the local knowledge, the special places to visit, the friendliness of the staff that makes you feel welcome and enjoy your time. As a family, we really thought this was one of those 'once in a lifetime' trips. Desiree called after we got home to seek feedback, and this is another example that Afroriginal cares about your experience. Wel worth your consideration!

Reliable, accurate, just perfect!
This was the second time we booked our safari with Desiree and Fay of Afroriginal Tours. And again, they did not disappoint us. Referring to our wishes, Desiree created a itinerary of 5 days and also gave some good advice of other places to go to, to maximalise the chance to see a lot of animals. We visited Lake Manyara, did a bicycle tour at Mto wa Mbu, went to see the migration of the wildebeests in Ndutu, did a balloon safari above Serengeti and ended up in de Ngorongoro Crater. We stayed in a basic banda (small room in a round house, self contained) and two tended camps. Especially those tented camps give you the whole nature experience while buffalo's, elephants and other animals get very close to your tent during the night. The staff at all those places are friendly and welcoming, the food is good and also the lunch boxes they provide, contain more than you need and expect!
Our guide was Emanuel (Ema). It was nice to see that even he still enjoyed to find and see the animals, to see his enthusiasm exposed. He was very friendly, new a lot of facts about everything that had to do with the environment, the animals, birds.... We even got lucky and saw a lion catching a baby wildebeest next to our car...
The car was in good condition and comfortable and more than enough drinking water is available during the whole trip.
If you want a reliable and accurate safari company to organise your safari, we recommend Afroriginal Tours and Safaris!
We had a wonderful time....again!
Thanks to Desiree and Ema!!
