Review about Tarangire National Park by Arisa
There are definitely a lot of elephants here, but the landscape isn't as captivating as the Serengeti.

Jan, owner of Ajabu Adventures had every detail of our 4 week trip worked out to perfection.
My wife and I spent 4 weeks visiting the beautiful country of Tanzania. Jan, the owner of Ajabu Adventures talked to us several times making sure the trip he was planning for us was customized by mixing a bit of down time, luxury accommodations and a fantastic mix of national parks and safaris. Every detail went without a hitch, from domestic flights to pick ups at the various airports to meeting us personally at the beginning and the end of our amazing adventure. All of the guides we had, had so much knowledge about the flora, fauna, history and the Tanzanian cultures. It was quite the learning experience, like something out of National Geographic. We had the pleasure of having Juma as our personal guide for 10 days. He is a prince of a man and was very well prepared and on time for everything. His respect for the environment and the animals was unprecedented and meant a lot to us both. If you are looking for a well planned out, safe, fun and exciting adventure I would not hesitate to recommend Ajabu Adventures. Thank you so much for an amazing experience!

Amazing expedition
Our 5-day safari through Tarangire, Serenget, and Ngorongoro Crater was absolutely incredible! , coordination from booking person transfer and guides was fantastic, ensuring every detail was perfectly handled. The guides felt like old friends, sharing their wealth of knowledge about the animals and park rules, We were thrilled to see the Big Five and many other amazing animals especially in Serenget.
The mid-range accommodations exceeded our expectations, blending comfort with a true nature experience. Each lodge was unique the team was friendly and nice foods added to our adventure a powerful smile . Overall, this trip was a dream come true for us, and we’ll be recalling about it for years.
If you’re considering a safari, don’t hesitate to book with this company—they truly made our journey unforgettable!

The lion isn't the only king of the bush
My partner and I both agree that this was the best trip we have ever done, a life-changing experience that you absolutely have to do if you love wildlife.
Meektrails was on time, professional and had excellent communication. From the time we were picked up and through the entire trip everything went smoothly and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and taken care of. Compared to all the other tour operators we spoke to, Meektrails offered a lot better rates which we found more than fair and we loved the quality of the lodges they had booked for us.
The true highlight of our trip was our guide John, a legendary guide whose professionalism and expertise are what made our trip what it was. He's very passionate about seeing animals and told us to get ready early (he would always be ready much earlier than agreed so we never once had to wait for him) and we were always the first ones in the park. He never rushed us, and ensured we took our time, and his enthusiasm to find the animals was contagious. He is well-connected and made efforts to find out from other guides what was going on in the park from other guides staying at lodges and this allowed us to plan our routes and entry points to find the best action, a lot of the other jeeps we encountered in the parks said they had not seen many of the animals we had because of our intel. If your primary goal is to see the most amazing wildlife action you can, then John is the man you want in your corner.
We saw every animal on our bucket list and loads of big cats every single safari day, we also saw a lot of hunting action, lions ambushing wildebeest and cheetahs hunting warthogs. We even saw leopards 3 times and a cub and mother (only ours and a couple of other jeeps found this). The best action was at Masi Mara and Amboseli.

Excellents service from beginning to end!!!!
I booked the 3-Day Mikumi National Park and Maasai Village trip and pick up from airport to hotel and back.
All service was very professional considering the fact that I arrived at 3 am and departed at 4 am.
The driver was very nice, aways in time, and the services was excellent. The Camp Bastian Mikumi hotel was exotic. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The trip to Maasai tribe was extremely interesting. The next day we spend teh whole day in Mikumi National Park. I think the driver had some sort of advance degree in biology because he knew every animal, every tree, every bird, every plant and the while ecosystem.
Efansia, even personally asked me if everything was okay.
Yes, it is safe to travel solo as a woman!
I definitely recommend Going Green Safari Tours to your travel.

Excellent Overall Experience
We had a fantastic experience with Beyond the Plains. John had curated a good itinerary for us .We covered Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara and Nairobi. The best experience was of course Masai Mara where we had an adventurous game drive. One point to emphasise is the stay at the Sopa properties at Naivasha and Masai Mara. We had booked a full board package and food was excellent in all the properties. The picnic lunch experience was also very good.
Our Guide/Driver Dan was very informative and ensured our safety and comfort throughout the trip.Overall a very beautiful experience.

Amazing experience
Excellent experience! Our guide, Elias, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the park and its animals. We saw the big five animals and much more. Everything was very professional and well executed from start to finish of our 3-day excursion. Mr.T met us at our hotel before and after the trip to answer our questions and prepare us for the tour. The food prepared by our chef Salim was delicious and the campsites were well maintained and located in the middle of the parks, with superb views. We are very happy that we decided to explore the Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Suricata and can only recommend it!

Perfect Safari
We had emailed Beatrice with our wishes and immediately received a suggestion for the tour.
The rest was coordinated via WhatsApp, Beatrice always got in touch immediately and made any changes we wanted.
After the tour was put together, we had to pay a 30% deposit. We were supposed to pay the rest on site in Arusha. Everything went smoothly!
Bashir accompanied us on our 7-day safari.
What a luck :-)
With his eagle eyes and years of experience, he was able to show us and explain all the animals.
Wakanda exceeded our expectations :-)
Thank you for the great safari!
