A magical safari experience!
Since I stayed in Arusha as a volunteer, I decided to go on a safari as well. I did the 4-day-safari and visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. I'm so happy that I decided to do this safari with Shemeji Safari & Tours because it was totally worth the money and an absolutely amazing experience! The guide knew a lot of things and has been able to show us the Big Five and also a lot of other amazing animals (for example cheetahs!). The food was delicious and the time schedule was perfect since we have been able to see sunset and sunrise at Serengeti and that was such a magical experience! I loved these four days and I would totally recommend this safari by Shemeji Safari & Tours!

Fantastic Safari service
Some friends and I wanted to do a safari, but we had very limited time and had specific destinations in our bucket list. Tanzania Roadside Expeditions was the ONLY tour company that was able to cater to our needs, AND had very reasonable prices. They went out of their way to make things happen the way we preferred! Tour guides were very knowledgeable and accommodating. We absolutely loved every minute of the tour and the experiences we got because of them. I would most definitely recommend Tanzania Roadside Expeditions for their professionalism and expertise!

Fantastic safari, but wish he would give full disclosure of his commission fees
Our safari was excellently organized. We loved the entire experience and our stay at Mwagusi in Ruaha exceeded our expectations. Paul even helped us add another member to the safari 15 minutes before we departed. Our only frustration was that he would not disclose to us his commission fees or break all the costs down for us. He would only give us a total cost for the safari and was unwilling to tell us what percentage of the total cost was commission for him. As far as we know, he could be charging 5% or 50%. He does not publish the information on his website and we asked on 4 different occasions, but each time he refused to tell us. Nevertheless, he planned a great safari for us. If you don't mind not knowing what you are paying him to organize the safari, then I can recommend him. If you need full disclosure of the costs, then you should look for someone else.

An excellent operater
Excellent organisation with nice people, conducted the tour to Masai Mara with great expertise. Driver Charles, ever smiling person, willing to be pro active at all times managed our trip to Masai Mara efficiently and left hardly anything to complain.
Service in Mara was a little to be desired. There was no proper water supply in Toilets.
Communication was excellent.
Strongly recommend this operater .

Dream come true
My July trip to Rwanda was the dream of a lifetime and I was praying and praying and praying that nothing would go wrong - between the driver, or agency booking hotels, or local hotels, or tours booked... And I have to thank E-Trip for making my dream trip a reality. Not only did nothing go wrong, it was the best trip of my life. We met great people, had fantastic food, did the treks expected and had a lovely and personable driver guide (Kevin). We started planning for the trip in Nov2015 and Ben and Aurelie were super nice, very patient, and very helpful. They accommodated our changes as they came up, and gave us good advice. They usually responded within 48 hours and always very courteously. I can 100% recommend them and would use them again.

Amazing array of wildlife up close and personal
The weather for our trip in July was wonderful. The guides were very helpful in giving information about the park and the animals there. There was a plethora of elephants, some of which came right up to the jeep. It is a beautiful area, with amazing animals.

Exceeded expectations: organized, knowledgeable, fun and that's just the guides
The Botswana Wild Parks accommodated photo safari offered and delivered on everything we'd hoped for from a first visit to South Africa. True, we didn't see rhino but who can blame them from hiding in the bush? Keeping the group to a manageable size (12 max) meant we all got to know each other and luckily, enjoyed each other's company. Jacques, though young, is very knowledgeable and passionate about wildlife and quite a good organizer. Simba exudes such warmth, kindness, good humor and life-loving spirit that he was a joy to be with. At Moremi, the local guide, Moses, is an absolute treasure. Not only does he have deep, deep knowledge about the birds and animals, he's a fantastic driver, and was willing to share about the culture and economics of eco-tourism as well. On the search for lions, on our last day in Moremi, with the trailer carrying our gear and bags already attached to the 4-wheel drive vehicle, he sighted a lioness and then drove off road to follow her into the bush. We all got National Geographic worthy photos of this gorgeous animal when she finally stopped moving because we were only 2-3 meters from her. The food was delicious and the varied accommodations were part of the adventure. Our favorite was Hyena Pan where we could watch elephants and giraffes and other creatures right from the deck. All in all, a memorable and enjoyable vacation. We would recommend Sunway Safaris to others and would book with them again.
