Great Safari
On our 7 day safari with Regional Tours in November we visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro national parks. Our guide Harun did a great job and we had a great safari. We saw a great number of animals. All the accomodations were excellent. The best one was in Serengeti (Kubu Kubu lodge) where we could watch wild animals right from our balcony. During the night we could hear a lion, hyennas and buffalos. An unforgettable experience.

Amazing Honeymoon in Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar Island
My husband and I spent 9 days with Regional Tours & Safaris and we had an incredible time Novatius as a driver guide all around Tanzania. He is so knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely loves his job. While nature is nature and you can't be guaranteed to see "everything", Novatius made a huge effort to show us every animal we wanted to see, and as a result we were lucky to catch unique moments like the great wildebeest migration! He was so patient and would let us watch animals for as long as we wanted - at no point did we feel rushed to move on.
When planning the trip, Maturaf at the office was incredibly patient and helpful, answering our million questions and willing to adapt the itinerary to our needs and budget. In the end he designed the perfect trip for us that included 7 days on Luxury Tented camp safari and 4 days in Zanzibar. It made our honeymoon effortless!
I'd highly recommend planning your safari with Augustine. You will not only learn a lot about Tanzanian wildlife, but you will leave with a friend for life!

FANTASTIC SAFARI IN TANZANIA
FANTASTIC SAFARI IN TANZANIA
I highly recommend the services of Regional Tours & Safaris. I had been doing research on tour companies and had almost overlooked the initial response from them. When I followed up by email, Maturaf called and WhatsApp me to find out more about what I was interested in so that he could make the right recommendations We choose the itineray “5 DAY MAGICAL TANZANIA MANYARA NGORONGORO SERENGETI from his website. We had several conversations and adjusted the itinerary and lodging according to our interests. I felt very comfortable that things would work out and they did - perfectly. Everything went very smoothly. The driver guide NOVA was a superb guide, easy to be with and able to spot animals at a distance. Maturaf discussed each of the lodging choices so that I felt comfortable with his recommendations. I truly appreciated the private safari as we spent much more time in the parks and did not need to return to the lodges for lunches. Instead we took box lunches (not particularly a fan of them but we preferred this to wasting time to get to the lodge, eat, and return to game drives). I did do some comparison shopping and felt the cost was reasonable. As this was a fairly expensive trip for us, I did take out travel insurance which I am happy to say we did not need.
I don't think you can go wrong by selecting Regional Tours & Safaris for your safari in Tanzania.

All in all great organization and a wonderful Safari
The communication with Maturaf the owner was good in advance (sometimes he did not answer very fast, but all in all he came back to all our questions and we had the feeling that he is taking care of our needs).
Our driver and guide in Tansania - Novatius - was very kind and we where totally happy with the Safari he did with us. Sometimes we had the feeling that it is not possible to do the trip excatly how it was promised before, because there are restrictions regarding the time you are allowed to stay in each national park so our guide had to change the program a little bit in order to make us see all the national parks that have been promised. But he did a great job to make us happy and in the end there there is nothing we could complain about, anyway.
Thank you Maturaf and thank you Novatius for this special experience!

Wonderful safari, saw all the animals, most caring guide, fabulous beach and stay in Zanzibar!
We did the 13-day Authentic Tanzania & Legends of Zanzibar tour, and loved it!!! Our guide and driver, Nova, was the best, he found every animal we wanted to see including lions mating, lion cubs, leopard cub, hippos playing, and the big 5. Being so close to the animals was simply amazing. We had a very authentic stay at the Maasai Village. Nova went out of his way to show us everything we asked for including a few local villages and a coffee plantation. He helped us change our lodging for 1 night to accommodate us and make the most out of our Safari. The Kati Kati tent camp was wonderful, as was Tloma lodge. We were not so fond of the day in stone town, very dirty and unpleasant smelling. Another great driver in Zanzibar, Omar. Had a great time at the spice farm tour that was set up for us. Villa Kiva was an amazing place with soft white sand beaches and caring staff. I really can't say enough how amazing this experience was. If you are thinking of booking this trip, you should, it is worth it!!!

Unforgettable Northern Circuit Safari
Our safari with Regional Tours was incredible. We had a 5 day private safari, incorporating Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater. Our guide, Haroun, was wonderful and was very knowledgeable. He was always happy and friendly, and made a real effort to ensure we got to see all the things we hoped for.
The accomodation throughout the safari was excellent, and so was the food!
I would recommend Regional Tours to anybody looking to book a Tanzanian Safari. It really was the holiday of a lifetime and we loved every minute of it!

Fabulous Safari with a great guide
Communication was good and everything was as described. The Safari exceeded my expectations. We saw all the big five, the ugly 5 the migration of the wildebeest and a leopard up a tree eating a warthog - amazing. Our Guide Mark was very knowledgeable, very patient and a lot of fun. He made it a fabulous 5 days to remember.

great value for money safari&beach package
Matouraf from regional tours organized a perfect safari (operated by Mama Savanah) beach combination for us. Direct money transfer is a very convenient way of payment. Accomondations selected were remarkable better than expected in this price Segment and Amani our driver guide was able to share his profound safari knowledege with us in excellent English. Although pre Safari communication deserves improvement finally we were really glad with our decision.

Trip of a lifetime
We booked a 6 day safari and 2 day beach vacation with safari bookings. The safari was great mainly because our guide Nova was amazing! We traveled with my wife, brother and dad. My dad is in his late 60s and Nova drove with so much care! He was very knowledgeable as well and we got to see so many animals!!! All big five except the leopard. When booking responses were slow but did share all confirmed bookings with us before transferring the money and adjusted the itinerary to our preferred accommodations. Some hiccups with the initial arrangements (of where we were supposed to go) but we were able to manage and get the trip of our lifetime!
