Exceptionally knowledgeable and enthusiastic
Shadrach was an excellent safari guide. He provided clear, detailed explanations about every animal we saw, making the experience both informative and enjoyable. His knowledge and professionalism stood out throughout the trip, and his sense of humor kept us engaged the entire time. I would definitely book with him again and recommend others do the same.

Great time
I had absolutely amazing time! I booked with this company Zambia Zimbabwe and Botswana! All the excursions were amazing! I did the helicopter tour, sunset cruise and a lot of safari. They are absolutely amazing and I would book with them one more time! Highly recommend to book with them.

A caring man who tried his utmost to provide the best safari he could for his clients
ETA provided excellent service from assisting us to make the correct booking to collecting us from the airport and transporting us to our hotel to collection the following morning to begin our safari.
No problems were encountered. Hotels chosen were superb.
Our tour guide, John, was very experienced and assisted us 24/7 and nothing was a problem. His knowledge is extensive with regard to mammals.

Really good tour with excellent driver!
It was an fantastic tour!
Obviously so much of these tours depends on nature, which is inherently undependable. As well with these shared tours a lot depends on the people you are with. Neither of these things are under the control of JungleRoam, but I consider that everything in their control was excellent and the overall experience incredible! (As well we were mostly lucky with those things not in their control :))
Our driver was an excellent spotter, guide and naturalist, communicating well with his phone, the radio and other drivers to get us where we needed to be to see the beautiful animals, and within a few hours of the first afternoon we'd seen four of the big five and a lot more! :D
The pre-tour communication was good, we had a good idea of what we would be doing each day. The service was very good, in each accommodation all of our needs were taken care of. The accommodations themselves more than met our expectations, with ample tasty food, water, hot water/showers, good beds and spacious rooms.
The three parks we went to were each different and showed the diverse nature in Kenya (Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli :)
I would definitely recommend this tour, and JungleRoam generally! :D
(And another special shout out to Joseph, our super driver!! <3)

Perfect organization!
There aren't many words to describe this experience! We chose Loren Safari through a friend who recommended it to us. Of course we didn't expect this organization. One word: perfect! Since we contacted Benjamin he has done his utmost to try to plan everything. Each location was magnificent (unforgettable The Two Nights in the Serengeti!). We toured Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara looking for The Big 5 and thanks to Benjamin's experience (who would also find an ant) and a bit of luck we had the wonderful opportunity to see all 5 of them!
Thank you Loren Africa Safari and thank you to Benjamin for every single attention!
ASANTE SANA!!

Well organised and the driver made a difference
The safari was very well organized, everything on time, the accommodation was excellent for a budget safari and the staff in each camp treated us very kindly. Chesi was always attentive to solve our doubts through WhatsApp and guide us in the process. The only thing we missed was that they warned us that for paying with a credit card at the office they would charge us a fee.
Joseph - our driver - deserves a special mention. He is an excellent driver, exceptionally friendly, responsible, punctual and always committed to taking us to special places where we could see the best of the parks. A very patient man and it shows that he loves his work because of the dedication he employs.

A family business with excellent service!
We visited Zanzibar, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Oludvai Gorge, and Serengeti National Park on an 11-day itinerary arranged by Tanzania Choice Safaris. From the very beginning of the planning all the way through to the end of the trip, the customer service was top-notch and everything went off without a hitch. At every step, we were met on time at the correct location by the team and had a seamless experience.
We chose Tanzania Choice Safaris on a recommendation from a friend who traveled with them a few years ago. We started out by consulting on the itinerary with Brenda, the American owner, who lives in Tanzania with her family. Brenda was extremely responsive and asked lots of questions to ensure that she was customizing an itinerary that worked for our interests. Brenda has good connections with third-party operators and suggested incorporating a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti into the itinerary, which hadn’t occurred to us, but was one of the highlights of the trip. She was communicative leading up to the trip, ensuring we applied for our visas in plenty of time and even alerting us that sometimes payments on the government visa site were unsuccessful. When we encountered that very problem, Brenda paid our visa fees directly and we reimbursed her.
The trip itself was magical! We started in Zanzibar, recovering from the jet lag. We only had a couple of days there, which was plenty, and enjoyed visiting the Jozani Forrest to see the red colobuses monkeys. However, the best part of the trip was on the mainland visiting the parks. Our guide was Brenda’s nephew Noel and I can honestly say that I think we got one of the best guides in Tanzania. He was so knowledgeable about the parks and the wildlife, constantly going above and beyond to make sure that we got to see everything we wanted to (and even things we didn’t know we wanted to see!) and answering every question we had about the animals and the environment. Other guides were asking for his advice and commenting on his skillful driving in some pretty rough terrain. Noel was amazing at spotting wildlife before other guides, meaning in a couple of cases we were the first or only ones on the scene to see some pretty cool things like a family of lions lounging in the tall grass, and he even somehow spotted a serval in the grass just off the road, which are apparently really rare to see.
Noel was not only good at finding the sights we wanted to see, but also good at positioning the jeep for the best views and photos once we were there. For example, one thing we really wanted to see was the wildebeest herds crossing the Mara river, which is something that just happens on the animals’ timetable and really can’t be planned. Noel understood the animals’ behavior and terrain well enough and had the patience to wait in the correct location long enough to give us the best shot at seeing it - and we did!
Overall, wonderful experience. We highly recommend Tanzania Choice Safaris, especially if you want to work with a smaller tour operator that will give you customized service.

Incredible experience with exceptional guide and chef
The experience with SL was amazing, Raymond was very responsive via emails and made sure we were prepared for the experience. The days on the safari are long and tiring and the guide truly made sure we experienced as much as possible. Without his knowledge and dedication we were able to see the Mara river crossing and rhinos. The camping was comfortable and the lodge we stayed at was better than expected.
