Professional, friendly... One of the best tour operators I ever met. And I have a lot of experiences
When preparing the Tanzania tour for a small group of my friends - clients, I've approached several Tanzanian travel agencies. I've chosen Afroriginal Tours & Safaris. The reason were prompt, proffessional and accurate answers to my numerous questions by Mrs. Desiree de Ridder.
And my choice was very good.
Our tour was realized from the July 20 to August 2, 2014. It included visits to the slopes of Kilimanjaro, very interesting and less visited area of Sinya - Elerai to the West of Kilimanjaro, Arusha, Tarangire and Lake Manyara national parks, conservation area of Ngorongoro, Serengeti national park. Finally we've spent even two days in Zanzibar.
We've observed plenty of animals, for instance more than 50 lions, countless of elephants, giraffes, zebras, hippoes, different antelopes but also several cheetahs and rare black rhino...
Everything was organized perfectly and Desirre and our excellent guides - drivers Fay and Emmanuel are not only supreme professionals but also very friendly people.
I organize several tours to various countries of Asia, Africa or Latine America each year so I have rich experiences. The services of Afroriginal Tours & Safaris belong to the best ones I've ever meet. My clients and me personally, we've been absolutely satisfied.
I can recommend Afroriginal Tours & Safaris to everybody who wants to visit to that beautiful and interesting country.

Superb experience! Book this with Masha (tour guide) and Gadi (chef)!!!
Our camping adventure began with an unfortunate start as our toiletries were lost in transit from car to car (with the operator) but the fact that our overall experience was superb is testament to how brilliant our guides were.
Masha was one of the most humble and genuinely nice people I have met. His knowledge of the safari parks is first rate and he drove with consistent enthusiasm and passion that was truly infectious. Gadi was equally brilliant and helpful in providing the services at the campsites and preparing food for the days.
Our experience was spectacular and I will actively find these two guides to do the same again and try and find that elusive cheetah in the Serengeti next time around!
A***** (also...great value for money!!!)

The trip was amazing and really great.
It has been a pleasure to travel with wild planet safari. It has been 14 incredible fun and pleasant days. I have learned a lot. I did not know what I looked forward to, because I did not know anything. But the journey and everything was really great. I would recommend Wild Planet safari to anyone who wants to go on a safari.

Seven By Far Travel is well experience and professional safari organizer
First Class Service We booked the "family safari" upon recommendation from our friends here in Sri Lanka. Thank you for your effort that made us very delighted with our very first safari in Africa. There was always something new and exciting everyday for us and the children as well. New things each day. The safari was neither too short or too long. Just ideal and what we wanted. Internal flights worked like clock work and farewell dinner at Carnivore Restaurant was superb. We hope to return again to Africa one day in the future and visit Tanzania to see the Ngorongoro Crater. I feel that we were really well looked after and felt very safe in your excellent vehicles.. We will highly recommend your company. thanks to sylvester and the YOUNG ENERGETIC TEAM

A little gem!
I was in TZ to do the Northern Circuit but read somewhere that Arusha NP was worth a visit, so I arrived a couple of days early and was given a private full day tour here. It was well worth it. If you are not desperate to tick those five boxes or you've already done it, then come here. It is small so a day is enough. One thing that surprised me which I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere was the butterflies, lots of them, large and vividly coloured. And, you have most environments in a small area, mountain, crater, forest, plains and lakes. Also, you can get quite close to the flamingos, which you can't in places like Ngorongoro. Lots of giraffe, buck, etc, and of course those gorgeous, b+w Collobus monkeys. Not dramatic or awe inspiring just totally charming.

Tanzania is the best place to see large numbers of large, African animals
Our safari was great! We were met at each airport as expected and all the logistics were done correctly. The accommodations and food were excellent. The weather couldn't have been better. I highly recommend Bushbuck Safaris. Our driver/guide, Usiah Mlyuka, was fantastic. He has a great eye and spotted a lot of game. We saw all of the big 5, lots of lions, elephants, and buffalo, 4 leopards, a rhino and a cheetah. In addition, lots of hippos, giraffes, zebras, antelopes, gazelles, warthogs, hyenas, and jackals. What was really interesting was watching animals interact in their natural environments. We got to see a pair of crowned cranes and a pair of ostriches go through their mating dances, and we watched a bull buffalo drive off a pair of female lions that were threatening his herd. The herds of wildebeests in the Ngorongoro crater were amazing. Stops at the visitor center at Olduvai Gorge and a Masai village were very interesting.
The one thing that I would change in our itinerary was the first night in Arusha. We arrived early enough that we could have driven straight to Lake Manyara and had an extra day of game viewing or could have shortened the trip by one day.

Very attentive to our needs, always on time, safe drivers
We have used Frate Tours on mission trips to Kenya (2012) and Tanzania (2014). Both assignments required the drivers to be with us 24/7. Francis, Nelson, and David were always professional, safe, dependable, and knowledgeable of the areas and peoples we were visiting. In 2012, they took us on a tour of the Masai Mara village and Serenghetti. They have provided all one could expect or require of tour guides. They became part of our team and interacted well will all team members. I would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking tour services.

Best Safari one could possibly imagine!
We spent a fantastic 5 day trip booked with BestDay Safaris from the 21st July to the 25th of July 2014. Even in the first phase of organising, Peter (the Managing Director) was extremely helpful with recommendations, with pictures and with answers to all of our questions, and there were a lot of them.
The Safari was done in Cooperation with a Company called Arunga Expedition who provided the car. The group was organised perfectly to our needs (4 young people). The driver Sadi and the cook Osman were the two most welcoming, cheerful and helpful guys one could hope for on such a trip. Osman's food was fantastic, he was even fulfilling our wishes and Sadi showed us EVERYTHING. Including the big five, which is not easy to see. On the last day in Ngorongoro Crater we were lucky enough to see two animal chases. Organisation was superb, car was amazing, food fantastic and price great. Peter was even kind enough to take us back to our hotel (which was outside of Arusha).
I can only recommend this company, it will be an amazing trip!
Ms. Anne is most reliable!
