Due to our excellent driver and guide Hamid evrything was organized wonderful.
The communication with our guide was super. The picking up evrywhere was without delay, the service in the car was excellent, the property of the car was great. It was convenient. We didn´t exspect so much service and friendlyness and were positiv surprised.
The safari was great. Our driver was engaged to show us all animals and we even saw the baby lions.
It couldn´t be better.

Superb safari and well organised
Our trip was arranged by Carel Verhoef at discoverafrica.com and was perfectly organised. We flew into the Masai Mara from Nairobi and all flight connections and transfers were arranged for us and went like clockwork. Carel was also very generous with his advice having lived in East Africa for some years – he is a mine of useful information.
My wife and I have had this trip to see the wildebeest migration on our bucket list for some time and we decided to go this year to coincide with our wedding anniversary. For that reason we were looking for something special yet reasonably priced and Carel helped us find Mara Ngenche. What a spectacularly good choice that was.
We stayed for 5 nights the camp and were extremely well looked after. The staff are fantastic. Our waiter, Steve, learnt what food we liked and didn’t like and was always on hand with a glass of wine and also taught us some Swahili! The Masai guards who escorted us to & from our tent especially Musanga, Karbolo & Lindeni were always on hand, very polite and interesting. Almost everyone speaks excellent English.
The game drive vehicle that we used was completely open at the top and sides and was very comfortable. We had some fabulous sightings with Joseph, our very experienced driver/guide. He was excellent at anticipating the animal’s movements to ensure good photos. In one afternoon we saw the Big 5 and on another occasion 4½, as we could only see the leopard’s tail that time.
The position of the camp on the confluence of two rivers was so relaxing and we often sat on the deck watching the 30 or so hippos all day, even though they didn’t move very much. Breakfasts and lunches were served under the trees beside the river. Dinner, served in the restaurant, was four courses and was beautifully prepared and presented.
Overall, it was a fantastic trip and the staff at Mara Ngenche made it more than special. When it came time to leave, my wife cried because she didn’t want to go. Of all the holidays we’ve had over the years, this has been our most memorable.

A great 6 day safari to Tanzania
We just completed a 6 day small group departure. our driver Goodluck was very good and the accommodation throughout the Safari was good quality. We saw all the big 5 and the best moment was to see a family of cheetah in Seronera. Good advise and support from safarihub.

The Best Trip I've Ever Taken in Tanzania
My safari with Tanzania Safari Land was the best trip I've ever taken in my life, and I've traveled a lot. Emma and his team helped us every step of the way. We changed our itinerary multiple times and the team made that very easy for us to do, allowing us to customize the trip to our liking.
Tanzania Safari Land was focused and professional from the moment we landed. They were waiting for us on time and made me feel extremely comfortable in an unfamiliar culture.
Our safaris were amazing. We saw everything we wanted to see and the guides allowed us to stay and watch certain groups of animals for however short or long of a time period we wanted. They made the long drives fun and taught us about the land, animals and language.
Our accommodations far exceeded my expectations. We stayed in lodges that made us feel like we were part of the culture, rather than busy hotels.
I always felt safe and taken care of.
I would not hesitate to take another trip with Tanzania Safari Land.

Amazing experience, highly recommended company
I was looking for a safari that was not camping every night but not luxury either - something that was in-between and wouldn't blow my budget. I also wanted to travel with people more my age 45+. The Safari Co offered all of this. On my trip there were 14 people ranging in age from 74 to 47. We travelled in an overland truck which was very comfortable, roll up PVC sides that gave us fantastic views and plenty of fresh air, the suspension was really good and the truck could travel at a decent speed. I loved the seat up above the drivers cab - 360 degree views and we could sit up here anytime, not just for game-driving. Each night we had a variety of accommodation ranging from basic lodges and cabins, the odd night bush camping, and the odd night in luxury so it was a nice mix and something to look forward to every day. The food really was amazing - what the cook could conjure up from a simple camp kitchen was tasty, healthy, fresh and plentiful. Andy Kibby is a true professional when it comes to running his safaris. He has tons of experience and this showed through time and time again with his knowledge of wildlife, local cultures, politics, history, and the ability to make everyone feel totally at ease. Andy's driving skills are also worth a mention - where he took us in that truck was at times astounding but we always felt totally safe with him behind the wheel. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Tanzania Safari Land to anyone with a sense of adventure looking for a boutique company who will really look after them and make sure their African experience is truly memorable.

Loth and Ephata were very helpful, knowledgeable, and took very good care of us.
The safari was better than we could have possibly imagined. Our accommodations were first class and Loth and Ephata could not have done enough for us, in other words, their service to us was superb. They always knew where to find the animals we wanted to see. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to go on safari in Tanzania.

This tour is very nice and comfortable.
This tour provides exclusive hotels which have very good outside environments. And the game drive in Masaai Mara prairies and Amboseli are excellent experiences. The driver ( guide) was very nice and was always very patient searching for wild animals for us.

Kenya-Tanzania 12 day safari
Noah, the owner of Wildebeest Safaris, was quick to respond to pre-safari questions and his information proved to be accurate. The itinerary that we developed together was very active, as we were trying to visit many different habitats in a short space of time. Given that, we had transfers almost everyday, crossed the K-T border twice, and a new hotel every night. The logistics were flawless. Our two guides Dennis (Kenya) and Hamsa (Tanzania), spoke good English, were very accommodating, and knew their wildlife. The trucks are not the newest, but they get the job done effectively. I will be using Wildebeest Safaris next year when I return with a university group. Thanks Noah, Dennis and Hamsa!

True mara experience!
An exhilarating experience with a powerful 4-wheel drive. Chasing lions, following the wilderbeest and wild buffalo herd, giraffes, zebras, camping, bonfire, and much more. We stayed at AA lodge and the staff is hospitable and warm. If you want to stay outside the mara boundaries, as you want to bonfire and play songs at night, this is the place to be. For the game drives, samy, our guide and driver was great too. They take care of your safety and belongings so well, that you can enjoy the experience to the core.
