AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!
I don't even know where to begin! Everything about this trip was incredibly well thought out! It was a wonderful experience from start to finish!
We were met at the airport by our driver and safari guide for the entire trip. (His name is GIFT) He was prompt, professional, kind and very knowledgable! I truly feel that he was a huge reason why this was so memorable.
From day one he was very attentive and made sure we always had what we needed, and we were always on time. I truly feel that we saw everything that we did, because of his good eye and experience.
Even when we would get home later, (We did travel a bit between parks) he was always up and on time. Not to mention, our jeep was ALWAYS spotless the next day, regardless of how late we got back to our hotel.
The food was incredible at every lodge and the daily lunch boxes provided were always so tasty and filling!
Now for the Parks themselves. Well... Tanzania is beautiful on so many levels. Every park we visited was exquisite in it's own raw way. We got to see just about every animal! (Except a Rhino). I know that there is no guarantee to see wildlife on a safari, but we saw SOOO MUCH. (Lions 5 feet from the Jeep, Elephants, Leopards, Cheeta's etc) . I truly feel that we saw as much as we did because our guide was so experienced.
All in all... this company puts care into their tours and it shows. I will be going back again! (To Kenya this time- Next August! With the Same company!!)

Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by John Nesbit
Great variety of wildlife, and you can witness how the ecology works in the area.

Lions were expected, but the experience delivered so much more with ecological observations
Kenya offers more wildlife experiences on a lower budget than you'll find in other African countries. In the Maasai Mara we saw many prides of lions, mostly resting and sleeping but we did encounter a lioness who was the last of her pride to eat (so scavengers were gathering to finish the remains). Even if your guide may not be the most knowledgeable about the local fauna, the guides use teamwork and communicate when unusual sightings take place. Thus, you are often ensured of seeing great sights.

Amazing private trek
We took 8 days nights private trek tour with Jaribu Africa Adventures and it was the best choice we could have made as beginners. Our guide was very friendly, patient, uplifting, funny, he gave us the time we needed and we could not have made it without his support.
Thanks again to our guide! The porters where amazing too. We had delicious food during the whole trip and basically everything was arranged. Even though it was very tough for us over the cold in high altitude, we felt like the queen of the mountains because of the great service.
We recommend all beginners to make a checklist of your gears and rent the missing from the company as it helped us a lot. We would definitely choose Jaribu Africa Adventures and our best tour operator again.

Fantastic honeymoon
This is for our honeymoon. And it is full of wonders.
The price was reasonable. Great experience in this safari. thanks to the Mack and the guide & drivers Thomas.
We had the car dedicated to the two of us, great accommodations and awesome places visited.
Our tour started in the Lake Manyara then Serengeti, Ngorongoro for a total of 4 nights, with 1 day resting at the arrival.
We've seen all the main animals, the big 5 and many other animals.
We couldn't have asked for more!

Just great. Would choose them again.
In summary the experience was great.
The days before booking we were not convienced about how the process works. Do we pay by bank transfer (can be risky), credit card (the rates are expensive, but provides security). After reading a bit about how it works, we went on with the sensible option of going about it as we would go about it in a European or "Western country". We used Transferwise for the money transfers. We paid a 20% advance to book everything and the remaining 80% a week later. Everything went smoothly, we had prompt replies from Paul, reassuring us that everything was fine.
On arrival to Kilimanjaro a driver was there waiting for and took us to our hotel. The hotel was as expected. So far, so good. The next we met our Safari driver, Bryceson, and headed off!
That simple. Bryceson was awesome, we had an amazing time and we owe most of it to him. He took us to amazing known - for the guides - places, but he always did the extra mile and took us to more off-the-beaten-track spots (while never doing anything unsafe).
I won't comment more on the safari itself - do it it's an amazing experience.
About Roadsize Expeditions, they get a 10/10 from here, definitely booking with them when I do it again.
About the mixed Tented Lodge / Tented camp experience: I think it was exactly the right balance. The tented camps were a bit more of an adventure (but that was the reason we were there after all), the tented lodges were splendit.
A little comment about lodges, go for the Tanganyika Wilderness Camp owned ones. We stayed Maramboi, Mara Kati Kati and Lahia. Staff were super friendly, food was great (like fresh... really fresh!) and facilities are awesome.
