Best experience ever!
Our amazing trip was 5 days Safari in the middle of March in Tanzania; Lake Manyara, South Serengeti and Ngorongoro Area.
Although there are so many tour operators, I chose Soul of Tanzania. Because I always get quick and detailed answers from Helena. She understood what we need and we organised our perfect tour with her. She is really good organizer.
And we were so lucky to have guide like Shaban. He knew where to find the animals and he has lots of knowledge about wild life. He knows where to find Big 5 and other interesting things. And our safari tour became more excited. Shaban never forgot what we needed. And he always find what we wanted to see in wild life. Cheetas, lepards, too many lions (even 5 baby lions), black rhino ... and so on... And he is also a good driver and a good person.
The camp places were so good. More then I expected. Especially the staff of Tortilis camp place in Lake Manyara and Sanctury Kichakani in south Serengeti were great. They were so helpfull, gentle and professional. You can have a beautiful dialogue with the staff. I almost cried before we left.The staff in Lake Manyara Tortilis camp area is speacial.
Camp areas has very good view. Their location is in a good position.They are so clean, food is amazingly delicious.
Luckly we had no rain during this season. Because generally it rains a lot in this season. The weather was so sunny. All the plains were so green and full of yellow flowers. So many grass and lovely trees. And best for us; there were not many safari jeeps around. There were not many people. And we saw all the animals. But comparing with dry season it's harder to spot animals in green plains.
This trip was one of turning point of my life. Me and my husband is so glad to meet Soul of Tanzania and our guide Shaban. We would love to thank you soooo much for this amazing trip and hope to see you soon!

OMG - the most awesome self 4wd drive experience superbly provided by Shaw Safaris in Nth Tanzania
Life changing and forever enhancing journey; fully supported by Erika and Paul (and their fantastic team) who's offering and service is 2nd to none.
We learnt quickly that a self drive in this area is not a soft option - there are very good reasons why they only use very robust 4wd landrovers; the roads are a big part of the adventure. Because the Itinerary that we worked with Shaw out took us well off the beaten track - a superb circle through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Lake Ndutu, the Serengeti, Rift Valley and Lake Natron. We camped in the most awesome places, only us, huge views and lions roaring to let us know they knew we were there.
Shaw Safaris Landrovers are in top condition, fully serviced before each trip; and the safari is carefully worked out with all National Park permits purchased in advance by Shaw (a huge advantage as the 'technicalities' of the entry exit system can be challenging). The journey we completed was tough in places - proper 4wd driving (every boys dream to 4wd drive tracks for days on days through Africa), rough camping, tiring etc - but, oh so worth the result.
The result for us - THE most amazing once in a lifetime experiences; we encountered so much wildlife, were right in the middle of the annual wilderbeest and zebra migration, and our 3 hours with 10 herds of elephants over 3 hours in Tarangeri NP was special beyond any words.
We cannot recommend Shaw Safaris enough - if you ever fancy this type of trip these are the team to help you. Oh, and staying a night or 2 before or after at Shaw's home base Twiga Lodge, Usa River, Arusha is a fabulous luxury much appreciated and well worth adding in.

Guides make the difference! Choose well (as we did)
All Around Tanzania provided the trip of a lifetime for us! It seems most folk that travel to Africa love the experience. I noticed some folk rate their trip ‘Excellent’ though usually add in a few irritations
Our trip sailed smooth throughout. From the bespoke planning to the unhurried ability to share deep Africa with charm and great company.
We chose to mix up our accommodation with luxury lodges, basic tour tenting and in between mobile camps. All of them truly amazing and providing the kind of diversity and authenticity we sought.
The heading of this feedback naturally points to our guide’s ability to spot a rhino at 3 km, intuitively know where a lioness and four cubs were heading, when to leave a ‘hard to see ‘ cheetah and find a resplendent alternative cheetah only 5 minutes away. Many other instance abounded where Marco (Nada) seemed to buck the trend (and the pack) to provide a deeper, kinder and eye popping experience. Loved it

Outstanding Short Safari
We only had 3 days available, but Martin put together a fantastic game viewing itinerary including Sweetwater camp and Samburu. Everything went smoothly with Martin being an excellent guide. We saw Lions, Cheetahs and Leopards in our short time including many other animals.
I highly recommend Fede Tours and Martin.

In the entrance of Serengeti we could see thousands of animals (Wildebeests, Zebras, Gazels) from the Wildebeest migration.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Kadir
The crater is full with animals. In a short time you can see a lot of different animals. It's beautiful and my favorite.
