Great experience and good pricing
We went through Eric and his team to masai Mara and diani .. we had a good time.. he himself accompanied us for all the safaris.
We managed to see most of the animals .. some in action - like eating the prey..
the most fantastic part- breakfast with giraffes!!! He found the most amazing place for this experience which we remember the most …
What could be better- I think it’s time to get modern and more pretty jeeps..

I would do it again!
We had an excellent experience with this tour. The punctuality, amability and politeness of our driver Thomas is something to highlight. The tour in itself is totally recommended.

Excellent safari experience with great organization and knowledgeable guide
We had an incredible two-day safari experience that exceeded all our expectations. Our guide, Saimon, was so kind and friendly, making us feel welcome and well taken care of throughout the trip. We saw so many animals—everything from lions, zebras, and elephants to much more. The food was absolutely delicious, and every moment was thoughtfully planned. It was truly one of the best experiences we’ve ever had as a family and absolutely worth every penny!

dream safari
We did the 3 day safari with Travel wise. I have to say, everything worked from A to Z. From the preliminary discussion to payment to support, everything was top notch. Our driver David was super nice and a very safe driver. We always felt 100% safe with him.
The first accommodation (heart and soul lodge) was very nice. The second accommodation in Arusha (Tulia Boutique Hotel), well, you shouldn't take that anymore. (I'll do a separate review)
We were in Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro and Arusha NP. All 3 national parks have their special features and beauties. We liked them very much.
The food during the safari was also brilliant. The food was always warm and very tasty and the beer was cold. We could have had wine too.
We visited a Maasai village and went on a 2-hour hike with a ranger in Arusha NP.
Unfortunately our return flight from Arusha to Zanzibar was canceled and so we had to bridge a few hours, which our driver solved brilliantly. Luckily we were able to fly from Kilimanjaro at night.
We went on a safari with my mother-in-law (80 years old). Everyone looked after her so kindly. She was everyone's bibi (grandma)

He read us and understand us and know what we feel and change everything like feel.

Excellent
It was simply an incredible experience! The entire trip organized by Mellivora African Travels was very professional and reliable end to end. Our guide Jordan was very accommodative and had a great feeling for the animals and nature - we saw all the Big Five.
The accommodations organized by Mellivora African Travels were superb, we had the time of our lives!

Really enjoyable last-minute Tarangire safari
I had communicated with Brenda in 2023 during another trip to Tanzania, but we ultimately couldn't get a safari to work on that occasion. Fast forward to this year, when our family (including two kids, 5 and 8) found ourselves in Arusha for a few days for a conference. During last-minute planning of the trip, I realized we would have one extra free day in Arusha, so I reached back out to Brenda LESS THAN A WEEK BEFORE ARRIVING to ask if Tanzania Choice Safaris could accomodate us on a day-trip for one particular day. Not only was she non-plussed, she convinced us to make the drive to Tarangire rather than just going to Arusha National Park and it was a great suggestion. Our family had a blast seeing elephants, zebra, wildebeest, lions, impala, and giraffe during a non-peak season. Our guide, Leslie, was friendly, knowledgable, and professional. The car arrived promptly to our AirBnB (he actually did a drive-by the night before to make sure he knew where it was!). The safari lunch was also amazing; I've been on multiple previous safaris and this was the best food I've had. And all for a price that our local friends told us is close to what they have negotiated as "resident rates" for their trips with other operators. I would definitely recommend this company again.
