Excellent responsive service, very knowledgeable advice and excellent organisation.
I wanted to write to Hilary and John to thank them every day we were in Africa but wifi isn't great on safari. They organised our trip so well for us, everything went like clockwork. All the bookings, transitions, flights, transfers etc worked perfectly. John and Hilary's recommendations were wonderful. We loved everywhere we stayed, we had truly amazing experiences at Motswari and Savanna game parks, and enjoyed the comfort of Olivers hotel. As a result of our wonderful experiences we fell in love with Africa and have to go back now we have the Africa bug. We can totally recommend Destinations Africa to anyone thinking of travelling to Africa. They are so well-informed, reliable and thorough, and seem always to be available to answer queries or give advice.

Such an amazing experience!!
My Tanzania Choice Safari experience was so much more than I could have imagined! The safari trip, lodge experience, food, service, and entertainment was wonderful! I can't wait to go back! I learned so much and made so many memories with Tanzania Choice Safari! Thank you Brenda and Kakasii for such a great trip and hospitality!

Very nice journey ; kind and interesting guide;
It was a wonderfull trip. Wild animals and very nice flowers and big old trees in pretty natural parks give me pleasure. All of the guest-houses were comfortable,lean and large. I am very happy and I'll come back an other time with Biwakwango.
Sorry for my English which is very poor !!!

Afrishare is Amazing!
I volunteered in Tanzania in 2012 and lived at Afrishare for 6 months. I felt immediately at home. The family is wonderful, kind and funny. They will totally spoil you. The food is amazing. I rarely eat out because I have not found African food anywhere else that compares. Afrishare has a wide variety of volunteer placement opportunities, which will expose you to life in Tanzania. I have also taken several trips through Afrishare in both 2012 and 2014. Each one has been professional and well-organized. There are many choices and you can learn so much about the people and culture. I strongly recommend Afrishare because their accommodations are great, the trips are spectacular and the volunteer placements are so varied and meaningful.

Wonderful Tanzanian Safari
We found Northern Circuit Adventure online and booked a 3-day Safari. From the beginning we were impressed by professionalism and organizational skills of the Manager Michael who was replying to plenty of our emails and questions consistently and without delays. By the time we arrived to Kilimanjaro Airport the driver was already waiting for us and we felt safe and comfortable on the way to the hotel. Throughout our whole adventure we were amazed by punctuality of Northern Circuit Adventure staff. Our guide and driver Dennis was extremely polite, punctual, with good manners and had a great knowledge of the wild life of Tanzania. We had our own chief Sweetbart who was treating us with yummy food and who amazed us by quickly adjusting to our vegetarian diet which we forgot to inform them about in advance.
Thanks to Northern Circuit Adventure we had amazing time in Tanzania we got unforgettable impressions and will never forget our adventure. Generally the whole experience not only met but exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend this company to all travelers going to Tanzania.

One of my best experiences in the bush ever!
Our experience with Shaun Taylor as host, guide and all-round manager at Camp George in Klaserie exceeded every expectation we had prior to the four (much too short) days we spent there. Shaun has exceptional knowledge of the bush and the local area and his outstanding tracking skills and understanding of animal behavior ensured that everyone learned more that we were able to take in including excellent close encounters with the big five. The accommodation and facilities that comprises a boma and lounges with the most beautiful views of the surrounding bush including a watering hole was better than one can imagine. Thank you Shaun for an unforgettable experience I will most definitely return as often as possible!

Tanzania was marvelous
Thanks a lot Matoke Tours, our tour in Tanzania was SUPER!!! we had to do nothing but enjoying, everything was excelent organised.
Our guide was the best ever, thanks Lawrence.
We have seen everything you can dream, 99 lions for instance, nobody can believe this, but it is true.
3 leopards, 3 cheeta's, wild dogs, you name it. A lion hunting on a warthog ( and he got it ), fighting elephants, fightings grirafs, sometimes we had the suspicion, our guide was telepathic, he could see what would happen, almost every time.
Ofcourse we have seen the big 5, we are travelling every year to Africa, but this was the best, we have never seen this, it was the best organised the most exciting travel ever,I don't have words enough to discribe !!!!!!!!!!

excellent, reliable,informative and professional safari group!
My father and I booked our safari through matoke tours in November/December 2014. We booked pretty last minute and changed our itinerary several times. Juma was able to accommodate our requests and changes every time and was very professional and super punctual about getting back to all my emails. Our safari in northern Tanzania was great. Our guide and driver, Gilbert was super friendly, professional. safe and could answer all of our (many) questions about everything! I would definitely recommend Matoke tours, and particularly Gilbert for any tours. We had no problems and had a wonderful safari! All the accommodation and staff at the hotels were really great as well. Thank you Matoke tours and Gilbert!
