Nature at its greatest
We would highly recommend Safarihub, everything was extremely well organised for our trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. A first class holiday beyond our expectations, thank you.

Backpacking on a Budget
My friends and I are volunteering with Focus in Africa and asked Nelson to set us up on a budget 3 day safari. He was able to create an itinerary we could afford to visit Lake Manyara, Tarangire, and Ngorongoro Crater. We camped out and had an awesome time. The tents were comfortable, campsites clean with water and electricity, and our cook delicious. I definitely recommend booking you safari with Focus In Africa because they do great work in their local communities and it is a family owned company so your investment remains within Tanzania.
Well looked after
Many thanks for providing a wonderful opportunity to go on Safari. The hospitality was second to none, the food was as was our very friendly guide.
Many thanks

Great safari adventure. It was worry-free, exciting at the same time relaxing !
Mr. Simon King,the tour company owner communicates directly and fast regarding queries and concerns since we travelled as a family with teens and a senior vegan. We loved our driver-tour guide and friend rolled into one-Mr. James Sichilima. He took care of most if not all our 8days' seamless transfer from one hotel to the other, from city to the wildlife, from rest stops to fun drives. We loved the tented accommodation the most since it offered an eye opening reality of how humans can live harmoniously with the animals without harming them.Thanks EastCo for memories worth remembering!!

Ruaha National Park, the best hidden secret
After several safaris in Kenia and Uganda, we decided to go to Southern Tanzania to visit the still unspoiled Selous and Ruaha parks. Ruaha National Park is a beauty. From the landing at the airstrip, you see elephants, zebra, giraffe,... This park is totally uncrowded, you can drive around for several hours without seeing another vehicle. Wildlife is therefore not disturbed by jeeps and is very relaxed. We saw at least 12 lions (even up to 10m), cheeta, leopard, and of course dozens of elephants and hippos. Ruaha is a must for game drive lovers... We stayed outside the park at Tandala Tented Camp. A beauty...very comfortable tents, great bar, excellent food, very friendly staff. Masai protect you as wildlife come into the camp and every evening many elephants come to the waterhole in the camp.
Excellent Safari!
Really enjoyed our safari. Stanley was an excellent guide who helped us interface with animals, culture, and history; Buri not only fed us delicious traditional dishes (loved the machalari) but also was great company. Camping was a lot of fun, and our group was great too.

The Trip of a Lifetime
I don't even know where to start!!!!!! It was simply "all that and MORE". Started with my initial contact with Robert. He always responded promptly and never tired of the one million questions I asked starting a year before the trip! Thank you Robert - Second, because we were 3 women traveling along, safety and security were of concern to us. Robert gave us assurances about many things, BUT the BEST THING he did, was give us MUTEMI!!!! THE BEST GUIDE/DRIVER in Africa!!!! I can't say enough about how wonderful he was. Knows so much about all the animals, the land, the roads, the lodges. He even put up with 3 very talkative, excitable ladies for 7 seven days!!!! Without ever being anything but nice, respectful, courteous and funny!!!! The vehicle was great, all the camps we stayed in were perfect and were all Robert & Mutemi's recommendations. We visited Amboseli, Lake Nakuru and the Maasai Mara. We saw the BIG FIVE in the first 3 days of the trip!!! We also so a Wildebeast Crossing the Mara that was magnificant! Go Kenya provided us the trip of a lifetime from the first late night at the airport meeting until the day we were dropped at the airport headed for home. Thank You Robert & Mutemi!

awesome safari at Mikumi NP with Hello Tanzania
We had a great safari with our driver/guide Beni, who made our trip unforgettable. Mwajabu, the tour operator, helped us a lot with preparing the trip and she answered all our questions. Unfortunately the drinks during dinner at the lodge were not included, what we didn't know before.
All in all the safari trip was really great and we would recommend Hello Tanzania to everyone.

Great experience
A fantastic trip, well suited for us as a family. This is the first time we have ever travelled on an arranged holiday, previously having organised trips ourselves. However, with a safari being outside of our experience, we adopted this approach and it worked very well. We would definitely recommend Safarihub to our friends

A great moment!
We spent 11 days with Sage and Kabi from Maun to Kasane. The perfect thing was that we were just two of us! That was an amazing experience in term of wildlife and landscapes. Botswana is definitely beautiful.
Sage is a really nice guy and an experienced guide. Both of them are from the area and have a deep knowledge of the animals and the culture (even the paths, which is really important to catch lions, leopards...).
The campsite was really well organized and the food was great.
My wife and I had a really really good time there and we are starting to organize with friends of us a trip in Kalahari.
Tips: with you can, ask for "a private trip" or with few people. The car was made for ten people and I guess that could be less interesting with a crowd!
