Greatest experiences, Best Vacation EVEEEEEER!!
We have just returned from a one week best experiences of our lives for both me and my family. From initial contact via email to departure home we can not fault the excellent service provided by SG Tanzania Tours and Safaris. The recommendations and service provided worked to give us, as a family a really remarkable experience in Tanzania.

tO BE THIS CLOSE TO WILDLIFE WAS AMAZING....ONCE IN A LIFETIME!
We had our arrangements made with Go safari. They were great. They booked at the Mohabetsi reserve at Kruger which was spectacular. Jock and Nina who managed the facility when we were there were superb. Jock was also our driver and wild life expert during our daily drives in the bush. His knowledge of the area, of the animals and his attentiveness to his passengers were outstanding. The lodging and food was excellent. I strongly recommend both Go Safari and the Mohabetsi reserve if you are planning a safari.

GREAT
We really loved our 3-day safari to the Mikumi park.
Our guide, Charles, was the best guide we could imagine. He really did his very best for us to make it an unforgettable experience.
Unfortunately we didn't see the lions. We were looking for them for many hours. Our guide felt sorry for that, but ofcourse it's not his fault. You cannot plan nature so.....
Our accommodation was good. The bed was good, we slept well. But unfortunately there was no elektricity and warm water before 6h in the morning. So we have to wash ourselves with cold water and a flashlight because we left for game drive early in the morning.
The ride from Mikumi and Dar Es Salaam was rather long. I think we almost did about 7h to get there. We read it would only take 4h so this was not wat we expected. But our guide/driver did a great job. He was at our hotel in Dar Es Salaam at the right time, he drove very carefull but fast so this was definitely not his fault!
But these little setbacks were nothing compared to the fun and the experience we had.
We saw many wild animals from a close distance, we loved the food at the restaurant in the Mukimi park, and oh... what a view from there.
We heard the elephants next to our room at night.
We loved the peace and rest at the park, away from the bussy center of Dar Es Salaam.
It was like a dream come true!!!

Custom-tailored Safari – Fully recommended
We did a 7 day trip with Pumba Safaris: Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. Our guide Edwin took great care of us and made sure that we always got the best possible position for wildlife spotting and taking pictures. He knows a lot about tanzanian wildlife and is always good for a joke or funny surprise ☺ It was fun traveling with him and we always felt safe and well taken care of. The accommodations in Lodges and Bush Camps were all high standard. We loved sleeping in luxury tents out in the wilderness, hearing the sounds of hyenas at night. Food was great – because of rich buffets even as vegans/ vegetarians we had a great variety of fresh and tasty food.
So all in all our Pumba Safari was an unforgetable experience that we can fully recommend.
Fantastic trip with a very friendly and knowledgeable driver (9 Days Magical Kenya)
We booked the 9 Days Magical Kenya trip with Beacon Safaris in July 2018 and can wholeheartedly recommend it.
We spent time in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Navasha, Amboseli and Tsavo West and Tsavo East and enjoyed every single one of these beautiful places.
The accommodations chosen by Beacon Safaris were excellent. Especially the Kilaguni Lodge in Tsavo West, with the waterhole being visible from the restaurant and bar was a truly magical place. The food was always excellent.
We had the pleasure of having Eric as our guide, whom we also found to be an excellent driver – we always felt very safe. Eric clearly is very knowledgeable and didn’t tire to answer our countless questions, and was generally a very pleasant and friendly person to be around.
The only minor complaint we have was that the boat safari on Lake Navasha turned out to be an optional activity and not included in the package. The price didn’t matter much, in the overall scheme of things, but we had specifically chosen Beacon Safaris because their itineraries didn’t feature optional activities – we had wanted to know exactly how much we’d end up spending for exactly which activities and game drives.
Fantastic Chimp and Gorilla Trekking experience
We booked the 5-days combined Chimp and Gorilla Trekking Experience with Devine Safaris in July 2018 and can wholeheartedly recommend it.
The trip consists of 3 days spend mostly travelling (cannot be avoided, given how far Entebbe, the Bwindi NP and the Kibale NP are located apart), a day of gorilla trekking, half a day of chimp trekking and half a day of a swamp and a community walk. The long travel times are made much more bearable by the beautiful scenery – especially when driving through the Queen Elizabeth nation park, where we were lucky enough to spot quite a few elephants up close.
We found all experiences to be excellent and enjoyable. Even though we mostly booked the trip for the unforgettable chimp and gorilla trekkings, we were very positively surprised by the swamp and the community walks as well.
The accommodations chosen by Devine Safaris were excellent. Especially the Isunga Lodge near Kibale was one of the most memorable places we ever slept at. The food was delicious as well.
We had the pleasure of being chauffeured by William, whom we found to be an excellent driver – we always felt very safe. William was also very knowledgeable thanks to his long track record as a Safari guide and generally a very pleasant person to be around. There was always time along the way to gather some snacks – preferably fresh fruits from the markets.
Going back, the only thing we might do differently is book a longer trip, to also see some other parts of Uganda and tilt the balance between time spend on the road and time spend in the forests.

Absolutely Amazing Safari Experience
We had a trip of a lifetime with Benson Safaris in northern Tanzania.
I had first contacted Benson early January based on the excellent reviews on this site and we were not disappointed. Benson designed a 9 day mid range safari of the major parks for our family. Working with criteria I had provided him, Benson created a custom itinerary and chose lodges that perfectly fit our needs, and exceeded our high expectations.
Our guide Amani was simply excellent, extremely knowledgeable on the animals and flora and fauna in the parks; gracious, patient and kind to our two children (aged 13); and very safety conscious. As a very experienced and trained professional, Amani knew exactly where to take us to ensure we viewed all of the major animals on our wish list (including all the big five), and used his strong contacts with other guides to ensure we had a number of unique viewing experiences, including a leopard, rhino, pride of 30 or so lions, a large family of elephants, and a lion feasting on a fresh kill, along with countless other animals.
Benson was easy to communicate with, payment was easy to arrange, and the logistics of the trip were perfect with Benson arranging for a very early morning pickup at the Mount Kilimanjaro airport upon our arrival and a drive to the airport on our departure. And it was a pleasure meeting Benson personally at the end of the safari.
I highly recommend Benson and his firm, the quality of the lodges, food, and experiences, and feel we received excellent service and value for money.
