Review about Tarangire National Park by Elena ********
the Baobabs and opportunity to do a walking safari and a night safari so we encountered animals difficult to see in the daylight like the civet and the genet and a sleepy lion as well, ultra suggested as it's not always available in many parks

An Unforgettable First Journey and a Thousand Reasons to Return
Returning from an unforgettable tour of the northern parks—a circuit I consider mandatory for a first trip to Tanzania—I wanted to share my impressions. While a scorching summer was raging in Europe at the end of August, to our pleasant surprise, the air in the Serengeti was crisp and fresh, so much so that we slept under a duvet. The accommodations in the tented camps were beyond our expectations. This wasn’t our first safari, so we weren’t actively hunting for the Big Five (though crossing paths with them again happened, and it’s always a pleasure!). Instead, we longed to witness the sheer scale of the wildlife, and we were more than satisfied: we saw entire valleys filled with buffaloes, as well as wildebeests and zebras in full migration. We also deeply appreciated the smaller residents—diurnal, nocturnal, and crepuscular—spotting the serval, the genet, and the civet, alongside countless bird species that filled every ecosystem.Beyond the safaris, however, I was deeply struck by the creative craftsmanship of the Tanzanian people, put so beautifully to use in art and local crafts. I saw so many hard-working people designing and making objects from wood, metal, fabric, and straw. With such vibrant businesses and trade everywhere, I have no doubt this country has a bright future ahead. In this landscape, women represent a massive driving force behind the country's industrious spirit, actively involved in countless fields, including many non-traditional roles.Tanzania does not rely on a single tourist hub; it offers countless distinct environments to explore. The landscapes are immense, with a continuous shift of ever-changing colors. Moreover, the local communities preserve unique customs and languages, and getting to know them touched and enriched us deeply, inspiring us to learn even more about the country.We will certainly return to explore the wide new array of natural parks and meet the people who inhabit them. I would love to see the blooms in Kitulo, search for the wild African violet and chameleons in the Usambara Mountains, and visit both the mainland coast and the islands. I want to look out over Lake Victoria and reach Rubondo Island to see monkeys and chimpanzees, or board the historic vessel on Lake Tanganyika to reach Gombe. And then there is the immense Nyerere National Park in the south, where I hope to find the Pel’s Fishing Owl among its numerous bird species, as well as I dream of trekking with the Maasai at Lake Natron or take a bike or motorbike tour somewhere, I don’t think one or two trips will ever be enough. Everywhere we went, we felt genuinely welcomed, and we are so glad to have spent a chapter of our lives in Tanzania.

Amazing Kenya 8 day Safari
I booked an 8 day safari with pavillion and i had an amazing time! It was a great safari experiencie! Dont let yourself lose some optional activities, they are 100% worth it (i loved the walking safari!). Easy communication, fast to reply in the case of doubts and very decent acommodation. Remember you are near a national reserve so dont expect too much of hotles, but they are decent with good, spacious and with healthy food. I cant wait to come back and to a Tanzania safari and when this happens, Pavillion will for sure be my choice. Special thanks for Tim and John, my drivers during the safari

Exceptional Safari Experience with MeruSlope!
I highly recommend MeruSlope Tours and Safari! I initially found our tour itinerary on Safaribookings.com and was connected with our travel coordinator, Gift Tambo. Gift was incredibly accommodating throughout the planning process. When we requested to add a night in the Northern Serengeti to our original itinerary, he arranged it immediately. He even managed a last-minute request for an Arusha City Tour on short notice.
Our guide, Patrick, was exceptionally professional and brought over 10 years of experience to our trip. His eagle eyes spotted so many animals along the way. We saw a huge variety of wildlife, including the Big Five, many types of birds and three different species of mongooses! To top it off, we got to witness the Great Migration in the Northern Serengeti, which was an absolute highlight.
Huge thanks to Gift and Patrick for an incredible, stress-free adventure. Don't hesitate to book with MeruSlopes!

Blown away by Botswana
We booked our 2026 Zimbabwe (Victoria Falls) and Botswana safari with Off2Africa.
We were very pleased by the experience. The pre-safari communication and attention to detail by Off2Safari staff was excellent. This ensured that we were well prepared for the excursion and the holiday itself ran like clockwork.
Our travel consultant, Robyn Seager, was simply amazing, putting together an itinerary that met our needs and always being on hand to answer our queries.
The payment process initially was a bit daunting – sending money to foreign accounts can be challenging but even that was comparatively easy in the end.
Robyn also provided us with the Travel Key app which provided an on-hand itinerary. This smoothed the whole process and kept us up to date with expectations.
The accommodation provided in the package was of a very high standard with the game lodges in Botswana being particular stand-outs -(Muchjenje Safari Lodge at Chobe and Setari Lodge in the Okavango delta take a bow).
Highlights from the trip included:
• The dinner cruise at Victoria Falls – an optional add-on but well worth the experience.
• The game drives at Chobe including the night drive – simply stunning. We were fortunate to see wild dogs on the hunt and jackals chasing guinea fowl, lions, buffalo, hundreds of elephants and crocodiles as well as the usual fare of grazing animals
• The water-borne drives in the Okavango delta with hippos, elephants and crocodiles and wonderful birdlife. We also saw sitatunga and a Pell’s fish owl.
Would simply go again in a heartbeat. Thank you Robyn and the team for enabling these wonderful memories.

An unforgettable safari with an excellent guide
My wife and I had a wonderful safari with Lion King Adventures. The highlight was watching the wildebeest cross the river—a moment we had dreamed of seeing. We were also fortunate to see both black and white rhinos.
Our guide, Murshid, took great care of us throughout the trip and made every game drive enjoyable. We also appreciated the help we received from Elia and Naurey. Thank you to the whole team for an unforgettable experience in Tanzania!

Exceptional Masai Mara Safari with Bushtop Kenya Safaris!
We had an incredible experience on our Masai Mara safari with Bushtop and highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip!
Denis, who coordinated and offered us the tour, was fantastic—always available, super responsive, and extremely knowledgeable, making the planning seamless.
A huge special thanks to our guide, who made the trip truly unforgettable. He is a skilled driver, punctual, and has such a warm and pleasant personality. His passion and deep knowledge of the Masai Mara were evident every step of the way. Even though we were in a van, he provided us with the exact same high-quality service as a 4x4 Jeep—and at times, he was even quicker at positioning us in the best spots to view the animals!
If you want a top-tier safari experience in the Masai Mara, book with Bushtop!
