A Lifetime Experience
My recent safari in Tanzania was an unforgettable adventure, thanks to the exceptional service provided by our guide Aloyce and the team at Amshar Serengeti Adventures led by Leon.
We had the chance to witness the Big Five, marvel at a lion in action, and experience the awe-inspiring migration and river crossings!
Aloyce's extensive knowledge of the local wildlife, landscapes, and ecosystems was truly remarkable. He skillfully navigated the stunning Tanzanian terrain, spotting rare animals and highlighting intricate details that deepened our appreciation of the environment. His insights into local culture and history were equally enriching, and his humor added a delightful touch to the experience.
With Aloyce's exceptional guidance, our safari was a resounding success, offering once-in-a-lifetime sightings, breathtaking vistas, and memories that will last forever. I highly recommend Aloyce and Amshar Serengeti Adventures to anyone seeking an extraordinary safari experience in Tanzania.

Pilanesberg is a safe area with beautiful landscape and a chance to see many animals during 3/4 days
Our combo Sun City / Pilanesberg was great. First two days at Sun City with the kids in this huge fun park and the Cascade Hostel delivered fantastic breakfasts. The family room was also perfect to check the activities of the kids in the other room. The wildlife park just at 20 minutes is true place for a safari with the big 5, with very few chance to see leopards, a shy animal. We recommended the Shephard's tree, well localised, great kitchen and professional guides here.

TOP! Magnificent!
What a wonderful time spent with Plex Africa. We opted for the 3 days of game drive with the safari boat. We were leaving from Zanzibar so having the return flight included was not insignificant. Once arrived in Nyerere (Selou) we had the chance to meet our guide Selum who accompanied us throughout our stay. A caring person, very kind and who knew how to make our 3 days very pleasant.
The park is very large, we saw a lot of animals there. It was fantastic. Being able to have breakfast or lunch in the middle of these landscapes are moments that will remain unforgettable.
The lodge was very comfortable with staff always attentive.
Communication with the tour operator is fluid via WhatsApp.
We also had the opportunity to visit the village next to our lodge. It was a very touching moment. Remember to bring small school supplies for the children, otherwise sweets are always nice :)
In short, we are very satisfied with Plex Africa who made these 3 days a perfect experience.

very welcoming people, akunamatata. any problem is not a problem.
Me and my family had a 6 days safari with Fullpackageadventure in Tanzania and then moved to Zanzibar for 5 more days.
The driver/guide (Adrian9 form the agency was really super. Very nice and very competent about driving, wildlife and orienteering... which is not easy at all!
I think in Tanzania one must study 4 years at the University to become a safari guide.
We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and lake Manyara. All parks offer different animals and very different landscapes. Lake Manyara was the less interesting but as last day it was a good way to a soft coming back to "city life".
Be aware that in August parks are not that hot! There is a plasent temperature. If you are going to visit Ngorongoro you will reach 2200 metres altitude so you will need a warm jumper/coat.
All Tanzania people are super nice and really welcoming.
It is a very safe country where you can travel without any fear.
We liked Tanzania (and Zanzibar), its people and its fruits very much!

Review about Nyerere National Park by Idris Farza
Nyerere National Park is very large. Wildlife is very present there. You can see many animals (elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, etc.).
However, the BIG 5 will be more difficult to see. Already because of the size of the park, so you sometimes have to travel long distances. Also because the rhino is endangered and is therefore much rarer on the continent in general. Otherwise, the landscapes are truly magnificent, the calm and the sounds of wildlife are exactly like those you could see/hear in a TV report.
Talking to other tourists who have visited the Serengeti or Ngorongoro national parks in northern Tanzania, we understand that the experience is different (the number of animals in the north is greater than in Nyerere). However, the wonder is identical :)
A small positive point during the visit to Nyerere Park, I had the chance to bathe in hot springs. A little scary but also super relaxing. I absolutely recommend visiting this park!

Trip of a lifetime!
Had a wonderful safari trip to Tanzania with Msangai Adventure. Didn't really know what to expect going into the trip but they really blew me away. The accommodations were better than expected. Each tent and lodge was excellent with no complaints. Our tour guide Wines was excellent and he made sure we got to see a great migration river crossing. Would definitely recommend Msangai Adventure. Check out Claire and Peter on TikTok for videos of what to expect on a Msangai safari.

Trip of a life time
We had the best time on safari - hands down one of the best trips and experiences we’ve had. The pick up/transfer with the external company and then wild wings into the park was super smooth, as was the trip back to J’burg for us on the transfer bus for our evening flight.
The safari itself was exceptional - we felt 4 days was perfect for us - we were really fortunate to see the whole magnificent 7, and the way the guides communicate with each other to help ensure that all clients get a great experience in the park was fantastic. We were the only people on our safari and the experience of having our guide Rufus to ourself and timings / locations then being entirely flexible was excellent - we were surprised at how little free time we had by the time we’d been out on a drive, detoured to various sightings and then popped back for a brief lunch, before back out again and home for dinner.
Accommodation was simple (as described) but perfectly clean and serviceable for what we needed. Rufus cooked for us each evening, and this was also great - plenty of tasty and varied food. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Rufus and sitting to eat with him; the opportunity to eat as a group with others on safari or have the option to go to the camp restaurant for dinner would have been an added bonus but this isn’t to say the food and experience we had wasn’t great! Both of us were astonished how nice ostrich was and the meals Rufus did were delicious, with us still then having a few hours in the evening before sleeping ready for the next day.
A really fabulous trip with great communication and smooth pick up/organising. We would (and already have!) recommended to friends/family as a fantastic tour provider.

The perfect adventure, from start to finish
From the initial research of our trip, it quickly became clear that Morning Star were the team we wanted to partner with. Communication was so quick and thorough, and Dennis was extremely flexible in accommodating changes and providing guidance throughout the whole process. For a trip like this, value for money was more important to us than finding the cheapest price. We felt that professionalism and expertise were the best possible investments, and I’m very pleased to say we got it right!
Our 8-day Kenya & Tanzania safari was seamlessly executed, between pick-ups, drop-offs, check-ins and day trips, it never once felt hectic. The team always had everything well in hand, but still allowed us flexibility to determine the intensity of each day, what we wanted to experience and what our energy levels were capable of.
Erick was our guide throughout our visit to the Masai Mara, and he filled our days with stunning animal sightings and lots of laughter. The hot air ballooning was truly a breathtaking experience.
Jackson guided us on the Tanzania leg of our trip, and he went to incredible lengths to ensure we got maximum exposure to all the animals we wanted to see. We spent our evenings listening to his stories and getting to know the wonderful person he is. It made an already incredible trip even more special to us.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Morning Star to anyone looking for both a seamless and extremely memorable Safari experience.
