Trust me simply the best without hesitation and goes over and beyond expectations
1 DAY SAFARI SELOUS FROM ZANZIBAR
Where can I start. We found telly safaris on the site amongst many others.
When you contact any operator they hound you with information and pressure and all tell you in reviews they are better . Telly is completely different and more what I would expect if booking a trip back home. Haroun sent me the information of the trip and followed up with a no pressure video call. That was so reassuring . We planned the trip for my wife and three children to a detailed itinerary and again never did I feel pressure.
The day before our trip we had a family video call with Haroon explaining how our day would go and the names of everyone from the transfer to safari guide.
We opted for Selous Game Reserve with Michael out safari guide and what a day. We have been on several overnight safaris but there was nothing missed by doing the 1 day to be fair. We flew from Zanzibar.
Our guides are in touch with Haroon and Telly before hand and prepare for your arrival seemlessly. English was spoken really well but I was aware of others having different language guides.
Flights are small private planes .pilot was so friendly felt personal.
The landscapes around Lake Zalakela are amazing. Michael out guide knew all of the area so well which proved essential in daytime when animals sometimes want to rest.
We saw all the animals to fascinate us all elephants , hippos,lions , giraffes , wilder east amongst many many more.
I will always recommend Telly Safari to family and if time is limited please do consider their 1 day Selous package.

Excellent experience all along the journey
We booked a 6 day safari including the Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli. The booking process with Derrick was great. He was very responsive and helped us to create the experience we wanted.
Our guide Bran was an excellent driver and always knew the best spots for great views of all the animals we wanted to see.
We can recommend this operator 100%.

Be careful!!!
Overall the safari was an amazing experience. Our driver Tony was always punctual and went out of his way to ensure we saw plenty of animals and always from the best vantage points.
However, we specifically booked this tour to stay on the game reserves, but at the last minute, the accommodation was changed to a substandard hotel in town. We spoke with the office about this and the woman there wouldn’t help and was extremely rude, yelling that we should read the small print. There were also issues with the final payment , and despite sending proof the payment had been made, the same woman again yelled down the phone demanding to be paid again and threatened us with the police. Not a pleasant experience.

sooo great!!!
Five Japanese participated. I think Albert cared about us and gave us the best course and attendance. I think I could feel animals closer than other drivers. We all love Albert.

Mr.Sadick and Mr.Goodluck,were incredibly welcoming and dedicated to making our trip perfect.
I am an 80-year-old Indian citizen, fortunate to have traveled across Asia—visiting countries like China, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, and Turkey—as well as Europe, including France and Switzerland.
For years, I dreamed of visiting Africa, and finally, I made it to Tanzania. Upon arriving, I realized I should have come sooner.
The country’s natural beauty is simply breathtaking. With stunning landscapes between sky and earth, it feels like a paradise where animals, birds, and humans coexist in perfect harmony.
One of the most incredible sights was the Ngorongoro Crater, an awe-inspiring wonder formed by a volcanic eruption—its grandeur left me speechless.
Above all, the people of Tanzania greeted me with such warmth and kindness that I felt at home from the moment I arrived.
