It was a perfect safari with our group of 14 Dutch people
From 6 days diving on Zanzibar to a three-day safari tour to Tanzania. Transfers were well arranged and our guides Jonathan and David were waiting for us at Arusha airport with their Toyota landcruisers. Both guides guided us perfectly during these three tiring but certainly not to be missed safari days to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. Encounter with The Big Five and dozens of other wild animals and birds. Super three days, ending with a short visit to a Masai community.

Friendly crew - reliable tour operator
We went climbing Kilimanjaro on the 7-day Lemosho route with Zanzi Trekking and had a successful climb to the summit. We were happy to find that Zanzi Trekking had a budget option which allowed us to save a decent amount of money compared to other companies we looked at, while at the same time including all the necessary elements for a comfortable Kili climb. Even though we booked the trip last minute, there was no issue. Booking was easy: we made an international bank transfer and they confirmed the trip upon seeing the proof of payment. Zanzi Trekking were flexible and fast at responding. As a bonus, they threw in a couple of sleeping mats at no charge – thank you!
Justin, our main guide, was very friendly and attentive to our needs. It was clear he had our best interest at heart and wanted us to have a good experience. We were also accompanied by Lazaro, our assistant guide, a true Kilimanjaro legend who had been climbing the mountain since 1981. Together they made a very good team. Justin was great at telling stories about his many years climbing Kili and very knowledgeable about the mountain. Lazaro had an infectious positive attitude and showed great patience with us when we needed time to rest, put on an extra layer of clothes, or take pictures.
Our cook, Dastan, made some hearty and tasty dishes to keep our energy levels high during the climb. He also made sure we had something fresh (fruit/vegetables) at every meal - even on the last days on the mountain. Our porters, Kelvin, Pius, Elimokozi, Dominik, Mathew and Shedi (Shedrak), did their absolute best to keep our stuff dry even when pitching the tent in the rain. They seemed to always be in a good mood.
All in all, we had a great experience climbing Kilimanjaro with Zanzi Trekking.

Great experience - would book again!
Super Eagles was great! From the start, we booked a year in advance. Charity was easy to work with. She even let us modify the trip to our liking at that point (we added a day in the Serengheti rather than staying in a hotel the final night). Throughout the year before the trip, communication was easy. I would check in and Charity would answer my questions as best she could. Then on arrival, Gilbert picked us up at 2am from the airport and took us to our hotel (even though our safari wasn’t for another 3 days!!) and this was included! Gilbert also picked us up on Safari day and took us to the Super Eagles office where we finally met Charity and the rest of the crew. Our driver was Rhino - he was awesome and would be taking us around the next 6 days before we crossed into Tanzania. Rhino was very knowledgeable and was great at getting us close to the animals :). We had the best time!! A couple notes - we didn’t always stay in the same accommodations that were listed in the itinerary. While this wasn’t a huge downside, we wished there would have been some communication about the changes ahead of time. We like to look into where we are staying :). The accommodations were always comparable when things switched up though. Also, we didn’t book a private safari. There were 4 of us, and 2 additional adults joined us for the Kenya side of the trip. 6 was comfortable enough, but prepare to get close to one another. On the final 2 Kenya days, one additional adult was crammed in with us. While we loved meeting other people, 7 adults was really tight - and they say the van is good for 8 passengers. I would recommend 6 being the max for the ultimate experience. Again, we loved meeting the people, but we really felt bad for that 7th person on the last two days because she had to cram in with all of us. Once we crossed into Tanzania, we were with a different company that Super Eagles contracted with. It was a seamless experience. Once in Tanzania, we even reached out to Charity to modify our trip again while we were on Safari and she was able to accommodate - it was awesome! Finally, don’t forget to pickup snacks. The food isn’t always on your ideal eating schedule on all day drives (nor is it always what you might be used to lol), so I advise to bring snacks you like. There is almost always bottled water provided (but not cold). Don’t forget some sort of face scarf/mask for those dustier days :). Overall, we would use Super Eagles again. We loved all the people and safari was breathtakingly beautiful!!!

Another memorable safari with Jaribu Africa Adventures
Our family of five, including our three children, recently had another unforgettable safari with Jaribu Africa Adventures, and it was truly special! Joseph, who planned every detail, made sure our experience was smooth and exactly what we hoped for. From the start in Arusha, where we stayed at the welcoming Gran Melia hotel in Arusha, to the peaceful beauty of Neptune Ngorongoro Luxury Lodge, every stop felt like the perfect fit for our adventure. When we reached the famous Melia Serengeti Lodge, it felt like stepping into the middle of nature, surrounded by incredible wildlife and breathtaking views.
Our safari guide, Julius, was a highlight of the trip. His knowledge of the animals and landscapes made every game drive exciting and educational. He was always on time, kind, and attentive to our family’s needs, making us feel well taken care of. The safari vehicle was spotless and in excellent condition, which made traveling through the wild both comfortable and safe. We could relax and enjoy the sights of lions, zebras, and elephants without worrying about anything else.
What stood out the most was the ease of the entire trip. Joseph and his team took care of everything, so all we had to do was enjoy. Watching our kids' faces light up as they spotted their favorite animals and sharing quiet moments together under the wide African skies made this trip unforgettable. If you're looking for a safari that combines great planning, beautiful stays, and incredible wildlife, Jaribu Africa Adventures is a fantastic choice!

Perfect tailor made tours
We had a personalised 2 week tour around Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda going on game drives, chimp and gorilla trekking. Anne was such a great help in planning and sorting out any small issues along the way. Would definitely recommend Mega Wild Safaris to anyone who is looking for a great tour experience!

They helped me make big 5 dream came true
This is one of the best operators in Arusha. The driver and guide is very excellent and experienced. He helped me find the big 5 and got closer to the animal in a friendly way as possible as he can. I appreciated his help. Emanuel, the manager is kind and helpful. He tried his best to meet my requirements! Thank you for your service!

Professional, kind, trusful
Once again, many thanks for making such a trip possible. The organisation, the effectiveness, the planning and on top the guides and cooks were excellent. We felt so comfortable although being so far from home. Everything worked out in time and perfectly. We felt very safe and were treated like royals or VIPs.
A special thanks to our great guides during climbing journey. It was tough time for my friend and me and we always felt professional friendly support from our guides.
Once more, many thanks for all of the above mentioned but also the perfect service at the airport, both when arriving and leaving the country and kind regards from very happy clients.
