FABULOUS EXPERIENCE
We were a group of 8 people who study in Canada. We did five days camping safari. We did tarangire, Manyara, and Ngorongoro National Park. We did it with Rondo Dwarf Safari. The planning was well arranged. We had our chef called John who cooked for us a wonderful food with traditional varieties foods. Also our guide Dominic much respect to him because we disturb him allot but he was passion enough, he knows allot of things concerning wildlife and vegetation's, every vegetation which we asked him he tell us in detail. We expect to come back next year December 2018 and we will book with Rondo Dwarf you real know the value of customer satisfactions.

A dream comes true!
We've been before on safari's, but this one, was the best by far! We booked à 7 days trip trough Tarangire, lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. Stuart was an excellent guide and driver. We saw the Big Five! And we were part of the migration of the wildebeest and zebra's. It was very impressive, even beter then on tv and our dreams. The lodges were we stayed, are perfect locations. The views and the food were excellent. We will never forget this trip, and defenitly come back with our kids! We can recommend Afroriginal Safari's

Fantastic Honeymoon!
Jeff of Avocet Safaris set up an unforgettable honeymoon for my husband and I last summer. He arranged all of the transport, accommodations, safari, Kilimanjaro trek (with a private guide, cooks and porters) and connected us with another great company for our Zanzibar trip. After doing a lot of research, and getting a personal recommendation from a friend of a friend here in California, we booked with Avocet because they were reliable, responsive, and more reasonable than the other tours we looked at. Also, on the way into Tanzania our bags were delayed, and Jeff found them and had them delivered to us! Superb service, and a great value.

Everything in Tanzania was great, down from the people to the wildlife.
The wife and I went on our honeymoon and it was a wonderful experience. Everything was great. We had so much fun and got lots of crazy stories and experiences from it. The safari is a must for any nature lover or photographer. The country is very beautiful. The people were my favorite part however as they were really friendly and treated us like royalty. We went with Shadows of Africa and they delivered on everything they said they would. Only complaint was guide could have told us more stories and the company didn't inform us it was the dry season. There's so much to see in Tanzania.

Perfect Safari
Savannah Explorers is an excellent tour operator. Roberto tailored the trip to our needs and answered all our e-mails very fast. We visited Arusha NP, Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake natron (10 days). The lodges/ tented camps we stayed were very nice and pleasently located (especially Kati Kati in the Serengti). George (our guide/driver) was very knowledgable and an amazing animal spotter. We saw all the Big5 and many more. Last but not least, Tanzania is a beautiful country with many stunning national parks! Thanks for everyting!

Tanzania is beautiful; I would never book with Safarihub ever again though
My review of Tanzania is 5 stars. The country is wonderful, friendly, full of wildlife. This is the second time I've been to the various parks on the Northern Circuit. I love that they each have their own unique and stunning scenery. Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangire are all beautiful. Unfortunately, much of my positive view is formed by my previous experiences of the country as the recent safari I went on was an absolutely horrific experience despite the beautiful scenery. (Avoid Safarihub at all costs).
Tanzania though (aka 'friendly Kenya') is definitely worth visiting - and I'd recommend a trip to Zanzibar as well as the safari circuit if you can afford it, particularly if you're interested in snorkeling/scuba.

Review about Kenya by Arvind Patole
A beautiful place with natural beauty. The place where at every 50 meters you come across some or the other wildlife. A place where photographers can see the animals in the open, no hide and seek business.

Very good safari, with a trustworthy and helpful company, for a good price.
We had a 4 days/3 nights safari to Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in the beginning of July 2014.
I found Northern Circuit Adventure on safaribookings.com, and after reading the reviews, I contacted Michael in the company. We had a very good contact, and he responded all my questions and offered me safari options afters my preferences. We booked a safari, and did a payment over internet to confirm the booking. This was easy and safe. When I arrived Tanzania and Arusha with my wife, we were picked up at the airport and brought to the office where we met Michael (director in Northern Circuit Adventure). We did the last payment there. In the night we slept in a hotel included in the safari.
Michael was also very helpful when our luggage didn’t arrive with our plane. We put him as a reference for the luggage, and he contacted the airway company, and made sure we received our luggage the next day. Very grateful for this!
On our safari we were 5 person, with one guide/driver and a chef. We drove to lake manyara the first day. The second day we drove to Serengeti, the third day we had a morning drive in Serengeti before going to Ngorongoro crater, we entered the crater the next morning.
The first night we were surprised with a stay in a beautiful lounge. This was not a part of the description of the safari. The other nights we slept in tents, that was also very nice, and we liked the experience very much, as we felt we got closer to the nature. All campsites had showers and toilets. The chef prepared the meals. And they were all incredible!! We don’t know how he managed to prepare all that delicious food! (I normally get a bad stomach when traveling to other continents, but not this time!)
And finally about the safari: Lake manyara was beautiful with it’s many birds and also a lot of animals. Serengeti was amazing. To go from one park to the next will take some hours driving, but it is just to sit back and relax, and enjoy the view. Also remember to enjoy the view of the nature while not seeing animals. The animals will come, but in the meanwhile, the nature and the landscape deserve to be enjoyed. The last day we visited the crater. Without doubt the best day for seeing animals. In the end we saw a lot of lions, zebras, gnus, hippos, elephants, giraffes, we also saw a leopard and buffalos. We were unlucky to not see the rhino – but that is how safari is, sometimes you see animals, sometimes they hide. But in the end we had seen a lot. Very satisfied with the tour, and the guide was excellent when he brought us to the animals.
After the safari Michael drove us to the airport in Arusha. Very good service.
Northern Circuit Adventure is a company I really can recommend. The company with Micheal in charge is trustworthy and helpful and they will at all-time provide the best service possible. The safari was amazing, and there is no reason for choosing others more expensive companies, because you will have an amazing, incredible and unforgettable safari with Northern Circuit adventure. And this you receive for a good price.
