Dancing Zebra Safari recommended and planned the most amazing experience ever!
Being on opposite sides of the US was no problem for us as we had zoom meetings and lots of email correspondence with Jessica (Dancing Zebra) prior to our trip. She even took care of issues getting our visas for Tanzania! Omary, Mesuli and the others at our first Lemala accommodations in Tanzania were amazing, always answering our many questions with patience and smiles. Then we took a bush plane into the Serengeti where we were met at the airport by Robert. This man was not only the most knowledgeable guide, but also a genuine and kind person who loved to laugh with us. He was our guide for the rest of the trip and was like family to us by the end of the trip. He always knew the best spots and the best times to see whatever animals we wanted to see on a particular day. Often when we returned to camp and were discussing our daily adventures with other travelers, they rarely had seen half of the amazing things we saw. The 2 mobile Lemala tented camps (Lemala Mara and Lemala Ngorongoro) were in beautiful places with such kind "butlers" who prepared our talking showers. All the Lemala staff at each location was amazing. So friendly, kind, helpful, and ready to do anything to make your visit meet your expectations. My favorite Lemala camp was Lemala Nanyukie Lodge. The accommodations were totally amazing - a 5 star facility in the middle of the Eastern Serengeti! One day we sat on the private deck of our quarters that overlooked the Serengeti watching the baboons playing in a tree. The daily safaris were the highlight of my trip because we always saw wild animals up close and personal. Possibly the highlight of all the animal sightings was when we saw 2 young male lions work together to try to take down a hippo in the Ngorongoro Crater. I was able to video the whole scene. The young lions were unsuccessful but their effort was unforgettable. (I was pulling for the hippo because I really didn't want to witness a kill.) The one thing I would leave off about our trip would be the Olduvai Gorge Museum. It was an awesome gorge to admire but I would rather have had more time in our next location. I guess it did break up the long drive to our final accommodations in the Ngorongoro Crater. On our last day in Tanzania it was wonderful to have a cultural experience in a village with local residents as guides. We rode tuk tuks, visited a local artist co-op and had delicious, authentic local food on a banana plantation. Then we headed to the airport for our long trip home. What a trip! Totally amazing, awesome, and unforgettable!

We recently completed an amazing trip with Ramble Africa Safaris! And enjoyed the scenic safari
We recently completed an amazing trip with Ramble Africa Safaris! And enjoyed the scenic safari. Overall, we were very impressed with the flexibility and professionalism. Winner was an excellent guide who helped us find every animal on our checklist (secretary bird, manted gazelle, chameleon, etc.) and was very encouraging during our Kili climb. Winner was brilliant, efficient, calm and consistently optimistic. One of our biggest special requests was extra hikes every day to help us cope even though it required extra time and energy on their part! All the details (food, transportation, gear rental, etc.) went smoothly, although our trip was definitely not as "fancy" as anything -- which we specifically requested. We wanted to sleep in tents, eat simple meals, and save money in every way possible--and Ramble Africa Safaris helped us accomplish this goal! Regardless of what you want from your trek/holiday, I would encourage you to contact Ramble Africa Safaris and I'm sure they can help you achieve exactly what you want!!

Couldn't be easier
Our experience with Antonio Safaris was nothing short of excellent. We chose Antonio Safaris because of their superior quote, which was head and shoulders above the rest, the ease with which they accommodated our custom itinerary and their choices for lodging. The accommodations and food were great. Best of all, the game drives were exciting and highly successful. Our guide, Anthony, was professional and accommodating throughout. I heartily recommend Antonio Safaris for anyone looking to have the unique East African wildlife experience.

Perfect trip
Our safari in Tanzania was unforgettable, thanks to our incredible guides, Henry and Godriguez. Their knowledge and passion for wildlife were unmatched—they led us to breathtaking encounters with lions, elephants, leopards, and more. Henry’s expertise allowed us to be in the right place at the right time, while Godriguez’s storytelling and his angelic voice added magic to every moment. One night in the village, he sang for us, and his voice moved me to tears. Their attention to detail made the experience feel both thrilling and deeply emotional. A perfect adventure for anyone seeking an authentic and heartfelt Tanzanian safari!

Our tour operator was knowledgeable, kind, answered all our questions, and was funny!
Ron Adventure is an incredible safari tour company. I've never been on a safari and I must've asked him over 100 questions, changed dates and details multiple times and Ron was always gracious, kind, and accommodating and made sure everything worked out for the trip. He planned an incredible adventure for me and my friend and we had the entire safari vehicle to ourselves. He personalized the trip for us and took care of everything - from transportation to and from the airport to hotel accommodations to a wonderful safari camp that was five star. Ron Adventure is responsive and always wants to build a trip for you! The safari camp was luxury - the food was delicious, the staff was kind and incredible and the lodging was beautiful and peaceful. Safety is a priority and there was never a time where we worried or felt that things were not taken care of. Ron even surprised us with a wonderful dinner treat that was totally unexpected and showed such kindness and respect. Ron runs his business with integrity, honesty, and always listens to the clients to create a beautiful experience for them. I cannot recommend him enough. Our safari guide, Henry, was incredibly knowledgeable about the region and all the animals and there were lots of them! He was respectful to all the animals and always knew where to go to watch them.
Ron Adventure is a gem!

Absolutely amazing, stunning and colorful!
Kenya was absolutely amazing, stunning and colorful. There are no words to describe Africa and the animals. Seeing all the animals on the Masi Mari was incredible and the African people were polite, gracious and friendly. Our African safari lodges were lovely, clean and spacious, and the food was plentiful and tasty. It's an experience you cannot get anywhere else.

Absolutely beautiful and diverse country.
We went to South Africa for our honeymoon and while we had certain expectations, we weren't entirely sure what to expect. Upon arriving in Cape Town, we found the landscape to be absolutely stunning and beyond anything we expected. The people were warm and welcoming, the food was great. The weather varied a lot, but with proper dress, it was lovely and didn't stop us from doing anything we had planned.
We spent a week in Cape Town before heading to Hoedspruit to visit the Timbavati Reserve for our safari experience. Again, we were blown away by the landscape, and saw most of the big 5 before even arriving at our lodge for our first game drive. The wildlife was rich, and we saw everything we wanted to see in our first few days on safari. The hospitality was second to none, everyone was pleasant and accommodating, and the food was superb.
Overall, our trip to South Africa exceeded our expectations and we'd recommend it to anyone, and will definitely return in the future.

An unforgettable safari in Tanzania
We went on a 6 day safari in October 2024. We visited Tarangire National Park, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Ngorongoro NP and lastly Lake Manyara.
The tour was organized perfectly by Safari 360 and according to our wishes. The entire safari and the lodges we visited exceeded all of our expectations.
We can highly recommend the tour and the tour provider.

Cradle of life, kind people, eager to help, breathtaking scenery, amazing mountains
Tanzania is a gem of the central africa. Incredible scenery, vast savana plains, dense rainforests, huge mountains, friendly and happy people, safe place to visit the mainland and learn about the history of the place from the locals. Avoid, all-inclusive hotels and take a dive with the local vibe, travelling with a car and staying in the local areas of the cities. This will make you get a grip of the native vibe...
But the most important thing is to relax and expect the unexpected...everything here lives on pole-pole rhythm and at the end of the day, the point is: Hakuna Matata! Don't worry too much, and everything's gonna be alright!
Kwaheri Tanzania!
