Great experience
We took a your days tour to Lake Manyara, Ngorogoro Crater and Serengeti Park. The first day we had a shared tour with four other great people and a decent guide and saw some beautiful landscape and some animals but the lodge (Africa Safari) was overflooded and looked nothing like the pictures on booking. The company must have known this because on Booking was clearly stated by the guests that this happend a lot this year.
The next day we had a group of two people from Germany that acted really aggressive towards us and especially the driver because he was late to pick him up. He was disrespectful for an hour threatening and talking aggressive and the guide just stood there and did not react at all (he also talked to his boss threatening that he is important and his time is important). This ruined the experience at the Ngorogoro Crater because we had to spend all day with them in that car, which was definitely a shame because it was the most beautiful place we saw in this four days.
Afterwards we stayed at a beautiful hotel with an incredible view near the Crater also called Africa Safari.
All three guides said that Serengeti Park is the most beautiful in Tanzania but maybe not in December because all the animals were in the sout of the park and we did not know that when we booked two days in the central part. I think the people from the company organizing the tour don t know this or don t care, because to set a tour for two days at Serengeti Park where there are almost no animals is really not ok.
Also be careful when booking the tour to make sure where the flights are right. On the sheet from them it was drawn a flight from central Serengeti but in fact was a flight from Kilimanjaro (an 8 hour road). When we mentioned this to the staff from the company they tried to mend it by offering an upgrade of the logde in Serengeti Park (which was nice and clean).

Tanzania, Magnificence everywhere
An Unforgettable Adventure in Tanzania
Tanzania is nothing short of breathtaking. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this would be a journey unlike any other. The national parks are some of the most stunning I’ve ever seen. Each one offers its unique charm, but together they showcase the incredible diversity of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes.
We were fortunate to see animals up close—majestic lions, graceful giraffes, and even elusive leopards. The Serengeti’s endless plains were awe-inspiring, while the Ngorongoro Crater felt like stepping into a hidden paradise.
Beyond the natural wonders, the people of Tanzania made this trip truly special. Warm, welcoming, and proud of their culture, they generously shared their stories and traditions. Visiting local communities was eye-opening and heartwarming, providing a glimpse into a way of life that’s both simple and deeply connected to nature.
The weather was perfect during our trip, warm days with cool breezes, a bit of rain but no this impossible to face, making every moment comfortable whether we were on a game drive or relaxing at camp. Safety was never a concern; everything was well-organized, and the guides and staff took great care to ensure we felt secure and at ease throughout.
Tanzania is more than a travel destination—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The combination of unparalleled wildlife, spectacular scenery, and the genuine kindness of its people makes it a place I will forever treasure.
If you’re considering Tanzania for your next adventure, don’t hesitate. It’s a journey that will stay with you forever! Our agency was Ngekewa Safari, super nice guides 🥰

You must see Kruger n.p.
We spent half of december and half of january in South Africa.
5 days in Kruger whith a guide: It is posible go there on you own, but if you want to see any cats, I recomend to you to get a guide.(without guide I could not see lion on 50m)
It is huge place and without a guide you need month to see it.
7 days in Dragon mountains: We hired a car (small toyota) and traveled mountains on our own. It was easy. Not much trafic in highways and local roads are in good shape. Only to get to car park up to Witieshoeck we used local shuttle.
Cape town 7 days: Easy with hired car (vw polo).
To trawel between Johanesburg, Cape town and Durban it is cheep and easy to take flight.

Wonderful Safari and hospitality Experience in Kenya and Tanzania
We planned our amazing trip in detail with Susan from TWE for our East Africa trip (7 days in Kenya and 7 days in Tanzania). She was very informative and flexible to curate a plan according to our need and requirements. The communication was one on one for the most part and hence we were able to better prepare for our trip.
Planning:
The Safari guides, accommodations, and food arranged were top notch. The planning and transfer between accommodations and national parks were very well organized. At the end of the Kenya part of our trip, TWE helped us with the border crossing formalities(it was a very smooth crossing without ant issues.)
Tanzania part of our Safari was also indirectly catered by TWE with the help of another tour operator in Tanzania. We had more personalized itinerary (which included a few internal flights). The planning and communication was very good between different guides in different areas for us. Any request from our end reg either accommodations or itinerary was very well responded to.
Safari:
We saw so many animals on our first day in Masai Mara, Kenya itself. That set the tone for the rest of our trip. We really had the best co-passengers and safari guide for the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru part of our Safari! Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania is something you don't see anywhere else in the world. Our different guides in different parts of Tanzania were very warm, friendly and professional. It was amazing to see people at work who really love their jobs! Highly recommend chimpanzee trekking in Gombe National Park. It was surreal.
Food:
We were pleasantly surprised with both Kenyan and Tanzanian food. We even enjoyed a 4 course meal at our first 2 days of camp stay in Kenya. In Tanzania, the dedicated cook Erica, who travelled with us during our camp days prepared all types of top-notch cuisines. In Tanzania the lunch at Materuni village was one of the best food we have ever eaten.
Accommodations:
The camps in Kenya are really luxury camps with spacious rooms and cleanest bathrooms. There in electricity, hot water and you can literally stay there for weeks without any hassle. In Tanzania our stay at Chemka Paradise Eco Lodge was very peaceful, We wish we had planned to stay longer there. Be mindful though the camping in Tanzania is actual back-country type of camping with shared bathrooms, which was very different from Kenya. The views make up for the comfort there.
Overall we had a fantastic time! Hope to return one day with more family members!

Very Knowledgeable
Not only was this the best priced package, this company was prompt in getting back to me and stayed in consent contact with me along the way.
Thank you Eluid for your professionalism and answering every single question we had along the way, you had so much patience with us :)
I planned a six night safari for seven of us. It was great that we had a private land cruiser Jeep just for us and that this company was flexible in the itinerary we chose and were able to coordinate for us so smoothly.
Our Safari guide and game driver, Ben was very knowledgeable, professional, patient and so delightful to be with that whole week ;) it truly makes a difference to be with such an experienced driver that was so knowledgeable on the history, landscape and of course the animals that reside in each national park.
I highly recommend Meektrails Safaris, they have the same access to any lodge that high end companies have so they are able to book you at a budget that works for you!
What was proposed is what we got. There were no surprise fees nor any disappointment in our lodges. We truly loved our Safari! Thank you Meektrails Safaris for a once in a life time experience 🙏🏼

Excelled at Meeting My Wants
George is a great guide. I was on a private tour with him for 4 days/3 nights. I am an avid photographer and tend to have wants that are somewhat different than the typical Safari guest. First of all I have done too many safaris to count. Secondly I want to stay at one place longer than most would - waiting for that perfect shot. George was also great at finding great opportunities for once in a lifetime photos.
Everything from the customization of the tour through the execution to my eventual departure for Zambia was perfect. Thank you and I will be looking forward to seeing you again.

Great Experience
We booked a safari for Tanzania with Kilimanjaro Adventure Club. From the Sales person ( Prince) to our guide ( Gerson) to the manager ( Aenea) we had a great experience.
Our baggage was delayed by the airplane , right from coordinating that to making sure we had water, snacks, good daily made fresh meal ( not a boxed meal) we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting once more when possible.

Adventurous Tour
Lovely tour to Masai Mara. You always need some luck to see as much animals as possible. The driver Geeman was kind and helpful. We had an adventurous trip full of surprises.
The roads are really tricky so always keep in mind your own safety.
The food was ok.
It was a lovely trip around the park. Would totally recommend to choose your safari with Axis. It was a great deal/ value for money!
