Well organised, amazing experience. Fantastic value for money
We pre-booked our safari before our holiday to Zanzibar through Telly Africa safaris. The communication was really easy as it was all over WhatsApp and Catherine is very helpful.
The tour was incredible value for money as it included lunch, drinks and the flights to and from Zanzibar. Then lunch was delicious as well. The safari was just magical. From seeing giraffes and elephants almost immediately to the determination from our guide to ensure we saw everything, including Lions. Our guide Ramadan was exceptional. He always knew where to park and wait to get us the best view and his knowledge of the area was impressive.
The drivers who collected us and took us back to the hotel were also lovely.
Catherine also regularly follows up to make sure everything went ok.

Great Experience and Smooth Arrangements
I had a memorable and valuable 11-day trip across Ethiopia, and I’m very satisfied with Tsehaynew’s arrangements and prompt responses. Despite a complex itinerary—from Addis Ababa to the Simien Mountains, Danakil Depression, and Omo Valley—everything was organized smoothly.
The city tour in Addis, trekking in the Simiens, the Danakil adventure (Dallol and Erta Ale), and the cultural visits in South Omo were all well planned and meaningful. Logistics, flights, accommodations, and transfers were handled professionally, and I felt supported throughout the journey.
I highly recommend this travel agency for anyone looking to explore Ethiopia with reliable planning and warm hospitality.

Very nice team taking care about each individual, you can really trust and relax!
I felt very comfortable from the beginning, the whole team was very friendly, took care of everything, was experienced and gave the impression to really work as a team! The tents were very good, the driver prudent, the cook was excellent and our guide really perfect, friendly, he knew everything, had a careful eye on the whole group and team and really likes to work with people.
The team also handled problems very flexible and in a very smooth way. The tour itself was full of different, beautiful aspects of south ethiopia, from the mountains, Coffee, agriculture and animals to salt lake and Hippos, seeing nature and meeting people. Two weeks full of beautiful impressions and experiences! Thanks you!!!

Best choice of safari operator
From the moment we started planning, this trip was something special. Kelvin handled everything for us honestly, he made organizing our Tanzania adventure feel effortless. As soon as we landed, Mdoe met us at the airport, and everything just flowed from there. No hiccups, no stress.
Reuben, our guide what a guy. He was friendly, sharp, and seemed to know everything about the animals and the landscape. He took care of us the whole way. I couldn’t believe how good he was at spotting wildlife half the time, he’d point something out before anyone else even grabbed their binoculars. On day one, we saw the Big Five, even the rhino, which we heard is pretty hard to find.
We visited in mid-November, so we caught the Great Migration. Seeing all those animals and birds up close was unreal.
Honestly, I still can’t get over how amazing it was. We’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.

A very reliable tours and travel company with good customer service.
We enjoyed every bit of our safaris.We were picked up in Nairobi,had a stopover at Thika fourteen falls.We then proceeded to Mt.Kenya National Park which has an exhilarating view of the Jumbo's.we also did hiking and of course the climate is good for rest.
We then travelled to Maasai mara and witnessed the famous wildebeest migration and had a glimpse of the big five
We finished our safari at Nakuru National park...woow it was some good three weeks of unwinding and catching up with nature.
The charges were friendly and the customer service was good.Our tour guide was very professional and helpful whenever we needed any help.
Communication throughout the safari was top notch.
Big up NTG.To many more Safaris in future

Very very efficient and friendly
A few extra days on the tour would be perfect. A rest on day 1 would be ideal before setting off on excursions especially when there are mid night flights from SA.
Time for withdrawing local currency is important.
Otherwise the service everywhere was excellent.

Extremely knowledgeable, professional and accommodating.
What an absolutely phenomenal once in a life time experience I had on the 2 day safari in the Mikumi national park. The quoting and booking process was stress free with the help from Pilly. She sent a detailed day to day document that was followed with even more unexpected surprises like going to the Mgogoro National snake park. Eddie and Meshack were our drivers to and from the Mgogoro train station and were very polite, friendly, and knowledgeable. Khindo will pick you up from any hotel or the airport in Dar es Salaam and drop you off at the SGR Dar es Salaam train station which both the train and the stations are brand new along the whole line. Nuhu was our safari guide for the game drive while Steve was our guide for the bush walking with the help of Nuhu. They are both Maasai warriors and have incredible unexplainable knowledge of the animals, plants, terrain, weather, natural resources, Tanzania and so so so much more. They both speak extremely good English and of course Swahili and Maa(Maasai language). Within the first 2-3 hours of our first morning game drive we saw the Big 4 at the park. 3 males Lions, Elephants, Water buffalo, and the extremely rare Leopard (unfortunately there are no Rhinos at Mikumi). I'm not kidding when I say I could have reached my hand out and pet 2 lions that brushed up against the Safari Jeep. We also saw hundreds of zebras, water buffalo, impalas, and many types of antelope. 2 highlights of the game drive were seeing the lion eating a water buffalo that they freshly hunted and being surrounded by over 20 Giraffes at 1 time. Day 2 was the bushwalking and Maasai village tour. Prepare to learn about things you couldn't possibly have previously thought about. Seeing the Small 4 insects. The different trees and what medicinal and practical uses the Maasai and the local population use them for. You will see small came on the bush walking like cattle, insects, birds, and antelopes. The big game is much further away and there is not much water near the hills so the prey and hunters gather near the water holes, so no need to fear of being eaten by a lion but even in a 1 in a billion chance there was some sort of dangerous game in the area I was fully and utterly confident in Steve and Nuhu to control the situation. They are Maasai WARRIORS they have lived in these habitats there whole life and know the "bush" like the back of their hands. If you are looking for souvenirs the Maasai village has a plethora of fully handmade jewelry, clothing, carvings, ect.... I cannot recommend Khindo, Pilly, Nuhu, Steve and the rest of the crew more. For the price of the trip and what you receive in return cannot possibly be replicated anywhere else with anyone else. I cannot say enough the accommodation factor of just going with the flow and not worrying about a thing water was covered, food was all inclusive and fantastic, traveling and plan of action all taken care of! For my Wazungu( White people) use your common sense you are going on a legit African Safari bring some sunscreen, sunhats, sunglasses, binoculars, walking shoes/boots, outdoor clothing. - Mzungu Maasai

Fantastic trip to maasai mara
Worldfire vacation fulfilled their promises. They went above and beyond my expectations not forgetting the guide/driver by the name David, very professional and a good time keeper seeing all the big five in Kenya was a dream come true
