Beautiful country, would recommend much higher prices for permits
The scenery in the little we saw of Tanzania was spectacular -- we LOVED the country and all of its people we managed to meet. But it occurred that much more that could be done with money from raising the cost of permits/entrance fees, for the game parks -- such as improved roads and jeeps that do not run on diesel and spew toxic exhaust (how about solar panels on the roof that tourists raise to see out?). Yes, we saw many wild animals close-up, which is indeed great for a first safari experience, but scores of jeeps dashing from one sighting to another left the impression of a safari park, where the animals are no longer "wild" but super-accustomed to being only feet away from humans. One poor cheetah mother protecting several cubs sat in the grass surrounded by jeeps, unable to reach her gazelle kill, which was rotting in the sun and increasingly likely to attract hyenas. So perhaps higher permit costs will reduce the number of tourists slightly while enabling infrastructure improvements and perhaps enforceable limits on how many jeeps may approach an animal at one time. Just a thought.

Very professional and caring
Ameera Africa Safaris makes one feel completely satisfied especially when it comes to client handling.
For my case i can only advise whowever wants to get value for money especially with tourism, to try this company"Ameera Africa Safaris "
But all in all your tour guide Ivan should be handled well, he makes tourism more enjoyable.

Smooth and Enjoyable Trip to Diani
We had a smooth and enjoyable experience with Urbann Vacations during our trip to Diani. The team handled the arrangements well, and everything came together nicely in the end. Definitely worth it!

A very memorable experience.
Our Tanzanian safari was a very memorable experience and we highly recommend it. Pendo from Tales of Tanzania was extremely prompt and helpful in planning our itinerary and accomodating our needs. Gilbert ‘Bobby’, our very knowledgeable guide and highly skilled driver, was absolutely fantastic. He was determined for us to see cheetahs and leopards, which we missed on our previous safari in Botswana.
We have recommended that the vehicles be upgraded but aside from that, it was a wonderful safari adventure which we will always remember. We highly recommend!

Great Experience with amazing team
The safari was wonderful. Thanks to our guides Peter and Daniel, we were able to enjoy a great adventure through Kenya, full of magical moments, breathtaking landscapes, and memories that will stay with us forever. We managed to see all the animals, and Peter was very dedicated in making sure we got the best photos. Without a doubt, I would recommend doing the safari with them.

Wonderful experience working with Camptrek. 14 day tour was scheduled and executed as planned.
Our contact at Camptrek - Margaret, was very responsive replying to our many questions prior to the trip. She provided suggestions and options that were very helpful. Due to border crossings between Kenya and Tanzania, we had three separate driver/guides. Each were very knowledgeable about the areas we chose, but also very helpful and engaging. It is almost surreal how they can spot animals and anticipate their next movement.
Our experience with Camptrak Safaris was excellent. Great service as well as good value for the overall cost. Would definitely recommend Camptrek to anyone looking for a Safari adventure in the Kenya/Tanzania region.

Very kind and helpfull tour operator
We were picked up and brought to the rentall, the day before the climb to confirm we had everything we needed. They were really helpfull and thought along with us. On the mountain the guide (Kenneth) was really nice and gave some tips on how to make the climb easier. The only thing was that we didn’t know how big the group that was guiding us would be, which meant that we didn’t brought enough for tipping.

Well Planned yet Flexible
Mimsoft safaris was exceptional in the planning phase. Steve gave us all the details to help us plan the tour and even helped to modify the itinerary to our liking with utmost ease and patience.
During the safari, Isaiah, our safari guide was really knowledgeable about local culture and safari in general. He was very accommodating to all our requests and was fun to be around too.
Our guide had good communication with other safari drivers to take us to the animal spotting. Within 2 days, we say 36 lions, 6 cheetahs, a leopard, buffalos, elephants and much much more. Even saw lions in the hunt along with an amazing african sunrise.
Although, we could have used more experience to get to spots to view the river crossing. But I understand, this is random and depends on the animals too.
All services were provided as stated out in the itinerary with minor hiccups here and there which is normal. Make sure to confirm all accommodation bookings before hand.
Overall, you will enjoy your safari with MIMSOFT. They are great value for money and operate the tour with compassion and without any fuss. Professionals at their job !! I definitely recommend :D
