Unforgettable Tanzania/Sansibar experience with Shemeji Safari
5/5

We got back from our Tanzania-Zanzibar round trip about a week ago keep thinking about it every day - so many beautiful memories remain, which is largely thanks to Shemeji Safari / Paradise Wilderness, with whom we carried out this trip. A year ago, we contacted Shemeji Safari and started to plan our individual trip together – we took some modules from their program one-to-one, others were flexibly adapted and added. We would particularly like to thank Tomas Vyvial, who took excellent care of us before and during the trip! We always had a competent contact person who was available per email and WhatsApp throughout our journey, and when we needed his help on-site (which happened only once or twice), he was immediately on hand and offered a solution so that we were able to continue without any problems.

If anyone is planning a trip to Tanzania/Zanzibar, we can highly recommend the team at Shemeji Safari/Paradise Wilderness, and if you work with Tomas, you will be in the best of hands. We have already recommended him to friends and colleagues, and who knows, he may well hear from one or the other... 😊.

A fantastic all round experience
5/5

We did the 6-Day Hwange NP, Victoria Falls & Chobe NP package which was fantastic overall.
Our Zimbabwe driver, Simon (and his offsider), our Hwange safari guide, Bheki, and the Chobe safari guide, Figo, were all amazing as were practically all people who helped us along the way, those part of the tour and those who we met along the way.
The accommodation at Shongwe was a bit more basic than we're used to put certainly had great service and a very welcome pool and the cruise along the Chobe river was certainly more basic too...but once we got over the initial surprises, we had a great time. Thanks all!

Incredible Safari
5/5

We went on a safari to Selous and Mikumi with Otto and it was incredible. These parks are some of the best places to see wildlife in their natural habitat in the world. We enjoyed the game drives as we came from one great animal encounter to the next. We managed to see lots of elephants, lions, giraffes, hippos, a lot of birdlife and many other species of wildlife that is abundant in Mikumi and Selous.
The lodges were amazing, we enjoyed the first class service and staying in the tented luxury rooms. The food was excellent and they would pack excellent baskets for our picnic lunches. We also enjoyed the surprise candle lit dinner on our anniversary.
All in all we had an amazing time in Tanzania, thanks to Rama putting the trip so well, that it was flawless!

Wonderful experience
5/5

We did a six day/five night private safari with Jocky Tours, and it was the best experience of our lives. It was really well organised. From the airport pick up to the drop off at our hotel after the tour. The Safari itself was a dream. Our guide and driver Dennis was the best. He shared so many information about all the animals and always knew the best spots to watch them or wait for them to pass us. He answered all our questions and showed us so many wonderful things, we are really grateful. He always showed respect for the animals and never went too close, so they wouldn't be disturbed.
We felt so comfortable in the car. He always drove very safe as well.
The accommodations we stayed in were absolutely fabulous. I would do the exact same tour again in a heartbeat and already recommended it to all our friends and family.

eTrip Africa are an excellent tour operator that provide tailored safari experiences for all budgets
5/5

eTrip Africa delivered a superb safari experience for my partner and I in Tanzania. I contacted several tour operators for quotes outlining what we hoped to see and eTrip Africa responded promptly with a suggested itinerary. Their general manager Ben then helped to revise and build our final mid-range safari itinerary over the course of a week or so of emails. He was really patient and helpful and, unlike other operators, there were no boilerplate emails - it was clear they paid attention to customer needs. Ben even agreed to skype call before final payment.

Thereafter, we provided all necessary documentation to eTrip Africa and the safari itself was really well organised from our arrival at the Researcher's Rest in Arusha. A big shout out to Eddie and Joseph who went out of their way to help us with our onward travel after we returned from safari. Plus the food was great there! Our safari guide, Samson, was hugely knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw and gave us great insights into Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Caldera ecosystems. He was very helpful and friendly throughout and we were delighted to have had Samson as our guide. Our accommodation and lunch boxes were excellent throughout including the beautifully located Tarangire Safari Lodge.

All in all, we felt eTrip Africa delivered a superb safari experience with excellent value for money and would be happy to recommend them to any visitors looking to go on safari in Tanzania.

Once in a lifetime Experience!
5/5

This trip was the best vacation we ever had. We travelled together with a family and booked a trip to see Tansania and it's gorgeous wildlife.
We started close to Arusha with a wonderful waterfall walk before we started our trip with Jon. First we visited Tarangire with his stunning herds of Elephants and many other animals. we further continued to a town called Mto wa Mbu to learn about Banana farms, local heritage and how people live their lives on a daily basis. Our guide Jon Malley always gave us great explanations about the local customs and how people manage their lives on a daily basis, which I personally found very interesting. Generally spoken I have to say - chose your guide wisely, as you will spend a lot of time in the car with him. I can only recommend you to go on tour with Jon. He is a gentle, polite, smart and eloquent young man, who always gave us the feeling to be treated as guests and friends. Don't miss to go to the Ngorongoro Crater - this is the most stunning piece of land we have seen so far with a variety of wildlife I have never experienced before. We were lucky - Jon managed to make us seeing 2 kills, which is brutal and stunning at the sam time - seeing Lions in Wildlife hunting a warthog down. Let me express my sincere gratitude to the organisation of that trip - it was the greatest trip we have ever been on. Looking forward to seeing my Tansanian friend Jon again - we will definitely come back some time.

Adaptable Safari Operator (arranged a Tanzanian Safari)
5/5

I had a connection with Wilson Bisaso of Saso Uganda Safaris from 10 years ago, and I arranged a trip to Tanzania with him and Saso. Wilson and the folks in the Office were very patient with me as we worked through various versions of the itinerary.

I am a passionate wildlife photographer and Saso works with Zara Safaris in Tanzania. My guide, Eliud, was absolutely amazing! I spent two full days in the Ngorongoro Crater, six in the Serengeti and a brief visit to Lake Manyara. Eliud was fantastic in every way! He was very adaptable and willing to accommodate my desire for long days out in the vehicle. He also had an amazing eye for spotting, and communicated well with other guides on the CB radio in order to ensure the best sightings. He positioned the vehicle beautifully, and made sure I was in a great place to photograph the animals. I saw the big five, and had multiple sightings of all three big cats, including mothers with babies. Eliud was kind, caring, considerate and very, very fun to be with! I taught him some British slang and he taught me some Swahili. I cannot recommend Eliud enough! Thank you to Wilson and Saso for making this trip possible.

The most incredible knowledgeable crew I've ever met & fun on safari journey!!
5/5

Wow! Amani, James & their crew! What can I say? I have total & utter gratitude for this amazing experience with them throughout our journeys here in mother Africa. Hiking up the mountain & traversing through the bush where the Serengeti starts the great migration of so many species. This was a lifetime experience. How grateful I was being with the best guides imaginable. Our safety was no question. High standards & integrity was number one! I'll be back to request these guides!
