An amazing safari experience
Charles and his team are fantastic. I have been on safaris with other companies, but none compare to Tanganyika Ancient Routes. Everyone is very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. The vehicles are comfortable and reliable and the accommodations are as luxurious as you wish. Most importantly, they seem to know all the other drivers and guides which means that they always know where the animals are. So, you can spend more time viewing the amazing game and less time bouncing around searching for them! I will definitely be back and highly recommend them to all my friends.

Put it on your bucket list! !
My husband and I went to Chobe in September last year courtesy of Pangolin Safaris. What an incredible experience. The staff are wonderful (and patient! ) and really go out of their way to make it an unforgettable experience for you. My husband is a keen photographer, but I was a novice. They instruct you on how to take the most awesome photographs and by the end of the trip I was shooting on manual. The wildlife is spectacular, and Pangolin really gave us a new appreciation for it with their knowledge and passion. Thank you Pangolin for the trip of a lifetime!

The wT to get the best photographs
The low wide boats and 'elephant bunker' allows for amazing perspectives. Guts, the lead and all of the guides are very qualified and keep things fun. I've been on safari many times but got many of my best shots on this trip. I plan to go back to Chobe and use Pangolin again.

Amzing photography experience on the river Chobe
Pangolin took me on an afternoon photography safari on the river Chobe - they have a custom-built boat with seats that rotate 360 degrees and provide fantastic professional quality cameras. I knew nothing about photography before I went and managed to take some fabulous photos using the excellent equipment and their expert instruction. Highly recommended.

Best experience of my life!
If you are an amateur photographer (like myself) or more advanced, Pangolin accommodates all levels of photographers. With the guidance of Grant and Guts, I left with the most amazing wild life photos. I loved every minute and can't wait to return.
I can highly recommend it.

This was our 3rd safari with Ajabu Adventures and it was exactly what we wantend to do!
In 2012 we went for the first time to Tanzania organized by Ajabu Adventures, we went to the Ngorogorocrater,Tarangire and Serengeti. We stayed in nice lodges and tents.Our drive, Jumah, is An excellent driver/guide and knows his way around and has a lot of knowlegde about the animals and birds. In 2013 we went again with Ajabu to Mikumi, Selous and Rouaha Pacs with the same driver. To very remote areas and beautiful nature. At the end of 2013 we went again, to see the migration in the Serengeti, which is absulutely a highlight. All the accomodations, good were excellent and we really enjoyed it so much and will certainly recommend Ajabu Adventures to friends.

Cultural Tourism
An excellent experience. I spent two days with the Maasai, and stayed in a boma overnight. I saw giraffes and zebras on the journey to the village. I learnt a lot from walking with a warrior, he was very informative about the environment, wildlife, and the way of life of his people. I spent a lot of time with the women, doing beading from which I gained some souvenirs, and joining in with their singing and dancing, which was a lot of fun. I felt very welcome and enjoyed it immensely. Around sunset I helped herd the goats and cows into their pens. The sunset was beautiful, and afterwards I saw more stars than I'd ever seen before or since, it was a very calming and enlightening experience in a beautiful place.
This was the best part of my holiday, and I felt safe and welcome. I felt that I made new friends and didn't have to share their language to appreciate their humour and kindness.
A must for those who enjoy photography and wildlife!!
Pangolin provides guests with an incredible African Safari experience, combined with the bonus element of photography. For someone who loves photography this is a must! Loved the experience, the service was fantastic, with easy going guides whose knowledge of both photography and wldlife is fantastic, what better way to spend your time! No need to have any photography experience or even a camera ... Camera's are provided and the guides will assist you if you have questions or want to learn how to take good photos AND you get to go home with your photos on dvd!
Overall I would highly recommend it to any wildlife or photography enthusiast!!

Climbing Kili and Ngoro safari
TSA and Iris are just fabulous they organised or itinerary and looked after us superbly. This included helping our 9 year old disabled daughter and 12 year old son to climb Kili via the Western Breach. All staff were professional and cared for both the climb and the Safari. I have no hesitation in recommending Iris and team as the only company to travel to Tanzania with.
