perfectly organized safari tour in north of Tanzania
We had the best time for our honeymoon in Tanzania thanks to the Galloping Safari! At the beginning we were impressed of the communication provided by Walter, the owner. He replied to each email less than 24hrs, he is responsive to our requests and tried his best to cater our needs, our itinerary and our budget.
The 7 days safari, which included the Tarangire Treetops, Plantation Lodge, Four seasons Serengeti and the Lemala camp in Ngorongoro Crater have fulfilled our dream to stay in a treehouse, in a Lodge, in a wonderful high-end Four seasons Lodge and last but not least an experience for a glamour camping (very cold in high altitude however bucket shower with warm water was available!). For the night before and after our Tour, Kamao Hotel in Arusha was sufficient, clean and good deal.
We were accompanied by Joshua throughout our trip. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and drives very careful. We are lucky to have him as our Guide. The Jeep used was comfy enough had air con and electricity plug socket to recharge our gadgets. We had no car break down or any problem with the tires during our 7 days.
We continued our trip with relaxing-stay in Zanzibar, the hotel was booked through a german-holiday website because the price offered was unbeatable. However, Walter was kind enough to organize the flight from Arusha airport to Zanzibar and also the pick up service to and from ZNZ Airport to our hotel. The car was luxurious Toyota van with professional driver, i wish i knew better before and would have booked our sightseeing trip for Zanzibar from them.
We did the hot air balloon safari in Serengeti, it was also an experience for a lifetime. The price quoted by Walter is slightly cheaper than the price offered from our Lodge, this is definitely a + point.
We requested to Galloping Safari to visit a Maasai village, after experience the village itself, i feel that we shouldn't have to. It is very commercialized and you feel like you are pushed to buy their overpriced stuff as donation. I've heard also the Maasai who operated this kind of village would also charge the tour operator to pay for the visit. Its your choice then to do this itinerary or not, i'd say skip it.
Finally, the trip couldn't have been better, it is definitely THE Honeymoon we won't forget. We are very satisfied with the service provided by Walter and Joshua, definitely will book the next Tanzania tour from them.

a wonderful and unexpected surprise, a unique experience!
Encounter Africa is a great choice for safari and gorilla tracking trip.
They have flexible packages, affordable prices, excellent organization and professional staff.
I went with two friends for one week discovering Uganda including Bwindi forest and we never stopped marveling. I personally had the opportunity to visit national parks in Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa which are wonderful but Uganda and especially the experience with the gorillas was an unpredictable and unique discovery, thanks to our driver and guide Joseph, he is a fantastic person with sense of humor, able to make the trip very special because he is extremely knowledgeable on the history, culture and wildlife of the country, with him you cannot get bored.
I can say that Joseph was the best guide I've had during my safari in Africa.
I recommend to go and discover Uganda!

Great time!!
My first trip with Africa Flash Mc Tours was to Amboseli National Park. We had a fantastic three days there. The hotel was great! Cyrus was amazing and the Park speaks for itself. Cyrus knew where to take us on any giving day to see the animals. Peter himself came to our place to introduce us to the driver. That was a nice personal touch. Everything went well! So much so, I planned another trip with them immediately after.

Cultural walking tour and Mt Meru climb
Joseph and the Trekili staff were experts in their arrangements and held themselves to high standard of service and customer satisfaction. The guides made me feel welcome (which was very appreciated a solo female traveler) and they were very passionate about their work. They established a good pace with me and were careful to explain the scenery, culture and life along the way. They were also honest about what to expect on the trek/summit (which we had to undertake in pouring rain through the night!). I heard other guides telling their clients that they were "almost there - 10 more minutes", which is frustrating after 40 minutes of hearing that. However, Trekili's guides provided honest assessments of the path ahead, which made getting to the top that much more rewarding. I think ultimately you get what you pay for, and I'm glad that I entrusted my experience to Trekili.

Wonderful safari!
This was our first experience in a safari and we choose Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris. We had a 6 days safari in the North of Tanzania (Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater) + 6days base climb to the Kilimanjaro and 1 day to the hotsprings.
We think that the support from Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris gave us was excellent from the very first day when we ask a quote via email. All of them have always been very helpful. Since day 1, when we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport, we realized that our guide Innocent & Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris team was great people.
During our 5 days safari Innocent was amazing: good driver, excellent and very patient in spotting animals, very knowledgeable about nature/animals, an incredibly nice person and always ready to help us in case we needed. Cook was so amazing, food was so great, Last but not least, we had a lot of fun together.
They pick up and drop us at the airport and they give us 2 nights accommodation in the hotel
Summarizing, we definitely recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris for your safari in Tanzania.

Remarkable experience from start to finish
We had an absolutely wonderful time on safari and would highly recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris team especially having Gideon for a guide. We could not have asked for a better trip; our experience far exceeded our expectations. Gideon was extremely knowledgeable and it was very interesting to learn more about Africa especially Tanzania as a country and about the animals as we were traveling. Not only was Gideon excellent at been able to find the animals, but would also get us in a position to take fabulous photos. His English was very good and he was a fun person to be around.
Also, it was a great experience dealing with Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris. They were very attentive to our needs, and very prompt in answering all our questions. We was very pleased with all the arrangements that were made. We also, appreciated being given choices to accommodate our budget. And, the overall expense for the trip was much less than what I have heard others have paid, and in comparison to others online.
They took as from the hotel and the safari started. Foot Slopes takes from and to the airport which is 1 hr drive from Arusha for free. The company is responsible and serious. I have to highlight that there is no need to book hotels by yourself before/after the trip. Foot Slopes provides comfortable accommodation before and after. The price is included in the tour offer.
But there is always possibility to make your own booking for a family or friends.
I highly recommend Foot Slopes Tours & Safaris

Everything for me is new, also a new world! Thanks Wildbeest Safari company and their guide! A brave, cool, warm heart and rich experienced guide, also a bodyguard for us! We two girls saw a real&unique beautiful wild world, amazing animals, and forgot all of pressures& annoyances,, just enjoyed a peaceful,clean,and beautiful world! 27th,June,2016 we first time came to Kenya; But I can say, I'll be here every year the same time!
