A great safari for our family
We booked a 2 night tour from Zanzibar to Mikumi NP. The communication from Kasaka was great when we had questions about the tour and so on.
They arranged everything. A taxi pickad us up at our hotel in Zanzibar and after the tour the same driver took us to our new hotel. We went by Safarijeep from dar es salaam to Mikumi, it’s quite a long drive but an adventure itself. During the safari our guide told us about the animals and did a great job. We for sure got value for our money.

Wonderful journey in the Tanzanian national parks
Telly was recommended by a colleague. I still compared with 1 or two other safari operators and chose Telly as it was interesting price wise. I am happy I did.
Telly is a very reliable tour operator. Great, swift and efficient communication all along the preparation, during and after the safari. I had total trust specially as I was booking and paying from Europe and traveling with my daughter for the first time in a safari.
I booked a 5-days luxury package. All the places we stayed were awesome. Telly chose wisely the locations.
Our guide, Justine, was friendly and professional. He did everything so that we could see the big 5.

Very good safari tour operator with a friendly and experienced tour guide
We had an absolutely unforgettable 4-day safari with Somewhere in Africa, exploring Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park. From start to finish, everything was well organized, smooth, and thoughtfully planned, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of the experience.
Each park offered something unique—from the incredible elephant sightings and baobab trees in Tarangire, to the breathtaking views and wildlife density of the Ngorongoro Crater, and finally the vast, iconic landscapes of the Serengeti filled with amazing animal encounters. We were lucky enough to see a wide variety of wildlife, and the game drives never felt rushed.
A special thank you to our tour guide, Amani, who truly made this trip exceptional. Amani was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly passionate about wildlife and conservation. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best sightings possible, answered all our questions, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey. His experience and warm personality added so much value to the trip.
We highly recommend Somewhere in Africa to anyone looking for a memorable, well-run safari experience. This trip exceeded our expectations and will stay with us forever!

Safe and reliable
The whole journey was very relaxing. The team leader was very professional. He successfully took me to the top and saw the beautiful sunrise. The food cooked by the chef was also very suitable. Everyone in the whole team was very good. He had a lot of care for us. Thank you very much for the help of the team and helped me realise my wish to reach the top. I also hope that the company can develop better and better.

An Unforgettable First Safari Experience with Edwin Safari
This was my first time joining a safari, and I’m very glad that I chose Edwin Safari. In just seven days, the trip left me with incredibly wonderful memories and experiences.
Our guide was Amos. He has many years of guiding experience and is truly an expert at spotting wildlife. He drives safely, has a sharp eye for finding animals, and always knows the right places to try our luck. Almost all of the animals we saw were found thanks to him. In addition, he has extensive knowledge of birds and wildlife and is always happy to share it with patience and enthusiasm. On some days, he had to drive for long hours, yet he consistently maintained great energy and ensured a very safe journey.
Our contact person, Peter, was also extremely enthusiastic and friendly. He always responded to our questions promptly and helped us plan the most suitable itinerary. Once the schedule was confirmed, he immediately sent us the hotel booking confirmation details.
Without a doubt, this was a very successful safari trip in Kenya. The wonderful experience made me love this country and the African savannah even more. I would love to come back again, and I will definitely continue to choose Edwin Safari and Amos as my companions.

Songe knew all the right places to go for viewing all the animals, plus he taught me some Swahili!
I don't expect this to be printed, but I think it is necessary to address these unfortunate events. The Landcruiser that we were put in was very poor. The windows were very difficult to slide, even though my husband spent time working on them. Also, the window handle would not stay on the passenger side next to the driver. PLUS, I had a VERY difficult time rolling it up and down all day long to take pictures.
WORSE thing of all is that it is very difficult to climb up into the seat as the vehicle is so high above the ground for short, 5' people. Having to pull myself up that high numerous times a day damaged my rotator cuff in arm/shoulder and I will find out Jan. 4, '26 if I need surgery.
SOLUTION: If Spirit of Kenya (and other tour operators as well) REALLY CARE about the comfort of their travelers, they should keep in the vehicle a FOLDABLE STEP STOOL. I have one that I use at home to get into my cabinets. They are light, some fold up as small as approx. 8x10x1" and they cost under $10. This is a MUST HAVE for short travelers to avoid damaging their rotator cuffs and to make it much easier and faster to get into the high seat of the Landcruiser. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO MY ADVICE if you care about short people. Thank you!

Excellent tour. Armaye delivered everything they promised and more.
This was a customized tour billed as focusing on wildlife photography, but it included so much more. In 3 weeks we did see a lot of wildlife, especially birds, but also a number of cities. The drivers, especially Ermi, were very knowledgeable and friendly. I especially liked the flexibility to adjust our schedule on the fly.
The price was very reasonable, particularly since we stayed in some of the best hotels in the country. I highly recommend Armaye Tours.
Note: The only thing I found annoying has nothing to do with Armaye. Apparently the Ethiopian government requires all tours to use local guides everywhere. In national parks this is often an armed scout. In the cities the local guide can be useful, but the scouts often just tag along and add little or no value. But of course they all expect tips at the end. This appears to be just to provide work for more people, since Ethiopia has a very high unemployment rate.

Once-in-a-Lifetime Honeymoon with Ozon Light Tours
Our experience with Ozon Light Tours was absolutely exceptional and far exceeded our expectations. From the very first contact, the team was incredibly attentive, professional, and always ready to help. As this was our honeymoon, they made sure the entire trip felt truly special, with thoughtful surprises and beautiful details that we will always remember.
We booked a 7-day safari in Tanzania followed by 8 days of pure relaxation in Zanzibar, and everything was perfectly planned and organized from start to finish. The safari was simply amazing—we saw an incredible amount of wildlife and were lucky enough to spot the Big Five. Every day felt like a new adventure, and a huge part of this unforgettable experience was thanks to our safari guide, Dennis. He has an exceptional eye for spotting animals, deep knowledge of the parks, and great experience. On top of that, he was extremely kind, caring, and always very resolutive, making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
We would also like to especially thank Clinton, who helped us plan and book the entire trip. From the very beginning until the end of our journey, he was always available, incredibly responsive, and very solution-oriented, quickly resolving any questions or requests we had. His dedication and attention made our honeymoon completely stress-free.
We truly appreciated the honeymoon details and surprises, not only from Ozon Light Tours, but also from the hotels, which made us feel very special throughout the trip and added an extra magical touch to the experience.
We cannot recommend Ozon Light Tours highly enough, especially for couples planning a honeymoon or any special trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. This was a once-in-a-lifetime journey that we will cherish forever, and we would definitely book again.
