They are experts
They know what they are doing starting from reservations till taking you back to the airport
Our driver was so experienced that he can smell the animals from the wind .
They arranged good accommodations with our budget.

meru slopes is reliable and offers fair prices.
The communication was verry good. Via whatsapp you'll get immediately a respons from geoffrey, this works good. In overal I had a good safari, we've seen a lot of animals en the food was great. The only negative thing was the guide. He was not very interactive with us and he didn't give any information about the animals we saw. It was more like: "look there a lion!" . And in the end We had to pay to much for the tips. The guid told us to give him 40 dollar and the cook also 40 dollar. That was 80 dollar tips for a couple. But Overal I had a great tour and meru slopes arranged it really good,.

well organized and given africa no glitches.
Journeys makes sure your trip is well organized with no glitches. Given the complicated transportation system of getting in and out of game parks its amazing how well organized they are. they also have a deep understanding of all where to stay and given your interests recommendations that might be slightly different that the most well known parks.

Awesome safari, with afterwards an ok stay at Zanzibar
We went for a 6 day safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Aferwards, we stayed at Zanzibar for about 6 nights.
We had an awesome safari with Shemeji! Our guide Harun and cook Isaack were both excellent at their jobs. Harun drove perfectly, told us a lot about the parks we went too and the animals we saw, put us (the customer) as his first priority (he stopped everywhere we wanted), has a very good sence of humor, is excellent English speaking (also very important!). Just. Awesome. Isaack was able to cook anything, breakfasts where good, lunches always nice and the evening dinner delicious. And the hamburger on the last day with some fries, yum. He was also a very cool guy, had a very good sence of humor, also excellent English speaking and always helpful. The parks were very beautiful, the animals so awesome and Harun and Isaack very cool guys. We wouldn't miss this trip for the world and thank them once more for the amazing safari!
However, the Green Mountain Hotel (overnight stay at Arusha) was ok. Don't expect luxury, just basics. Our time at Zanzibar was also very nice. Beautiful white beaches and a very blue sea. Mbuyuni Beach Village had lots of places to hangout and the lunch / dinner menu was always different. However, don't expect luxury here also, but just the basics. Some things could be much better, like the bed, sheets and some other things. The personnel however was always friendly, helpful and fun. Unfortunately, the same music is played every night and the food isn't always that good.
So, overall we had a good experience with Shemeji. The safari was awesome, our stay at the hotels ok. I would recommend Shemeji (and especially Harun and Isaack) to anyone! However, maybe choose your own hotels when you need some more luxury. Otherwise, these ones are just fine. Shemeji, thanks once more!

If experiences were a meal, this one had plenty of entrees yet left me wishing for second helpings
Generally the opportunity to visit the wilds of Tanzania to see the wild life was all that I had expected. The accommodations were excellent. Staff in all locations were so attentive and went beyond the call to see to it that all needs were met.
The down side was wishing we could have spent more time in some locations to get to know the people and culture better. For example, we ended our trip with a one night visit to the Masaai Lodge. The one night stay was due to limited availability, I know. However, this was a great place with much to offer to learn more about the setting and people."Not enough" isn't really a complaint.

Great!
Truly professional and helpful guides combined with great hotels, with our agent Kathi always willing to answer any questions we might had, including last minute questions about drones and whether a fleece and windbreaker would be sufficient since it wasn't listed in the general information for winter travelling. For faster answers, call or ask to add agents on whatsapp, which Kathi suggested for quicker information exchange!

“Superb Experience”
We had 5 days safari in Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti NP, Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro Crater and a day visit to Kikuletwa hot spring. Breathtaking landscapes and amazing wildlife viewing every single day. Every day, every moment was superb.
Our organizer was Agness. She was fantastic, responded to our questions very quick and did everything to make our safari perfect. Thank you Agness.
Our tents during safari was very comfortable and our car was in a good condition.
Our driver guide Juma was cheerful, knowledgeable and showed us more than we expected: great migration, river crossing, Big 5 and many, many more. Juma is also a very good driver- we felt that we where in a good hands:). Thank you Juma.
Goodluck pick us from JRO airport to Arusha hotel all is also included. Thanks Goodluck.
Tanzania national parks are extremely superb not to miss Serengeti National Park. Plenty of animals! !!!!!!.
We definitely recommed to used Rhino Explorer Tours & Safaris for a safari- no need to worry for anything, everything perfectly organized to the detail.
I hope we will see Tanzania again. Thanks.

We had a great experience with home to Africa.
We were very impressed with the hotels and especially our driver, Abdul. He was calm and drove beautifully. He explained everything and went out of his way to take us on a safari drive when it was not even our time. He tried his best to give us the best experience possible and we are so grateful to him. Absolutely amazing!!!
