Best way up the Mountain
TCS did such a great job equipping, feeding and staffing our 22 person trek up Kilimanjaro. Fresh pineapple at 15,000 feet!? Unheard of. All of our trek was under the watchful eye and and good nature of trail boss Festo Mtui. If you are so lucky to get Festo to lead your expedition, then you are REALLY lucky.
Well done Tanzania Choice Safaris!

It's perfection I couldn't plan alone.
The best part was the tour agent Ben Jennings! He was the most efficient tour agent ever in our travel history. Everything was planned with clear communication and transparency. Ben responded on even the smallest questions with long and detailed explanation. We would definitely recommend to all our friends and followers (facebook and instagram) to go to e-Trip Africa and ask for Ben Jennings.

Danson was outstanding, had a world of information about the animals, & made us feel so special.
Danson was an excellent guide, always telling us information about the animals we encountered and allowed us to stay put and just watch them interact among their group. Danson had meals with us on several occasions, and other guests came and asked us if they could join us as we were having so much fun. He helped other guides who were having difficulties - changed a flat tire and pushed a vehicle stuck on a rock. He went out of his way to find animals so that we could enjoy them by ourselves, as I really wanted to experience a one on one with a pride of lions. It was fantastic to see them interact so close up. Safari drives morning and night gave us a wide variety of animals to watch. The tent camps were clean and had good bathroom facilities. The food was very good and bottled water always available. One day the drive between camps was very long, but we did get "drop coffee" breaks and stretches along the way. Danson always told us stories about the areas we were passing through, even going to a Masai village to see how the local people live. The balloon ride over Masai Mara was incredible, and to have a herd of wildebeests stampede around our vehicle was over the top. I recommend Karibu Safari to anyone and highly recommend Danson.

Amazing experience
We (2 adults + 7 years old son) were on 3-day safari (Mara Engai Lodge) with Andrew. He was a very good guide and driver. He didn't impose himself, he wanted to show everything what was important to us. He knew a lot about savanna, animals and their habits.
He was very nice, good manners, trip with hom was a pleasure.
We could't choose better!

A lifetime experience with a fully professional and reliable operator
We (myself + 2 children) booked a 3-day safari to Mikumi and Udzungwa N.P.s. Already before our trip to Tanzania even started we were “taken by the hand” by Mwajabu, who responded very promptly to any my queries by email and always professionally explained everything so that we could settle all the details of our safari in advance (the communication during our stay in TNZ via WhattsApp was even faster and more efficient). Travelling with children made me extra concerned about the quality of the booked services but there was absolutely no need to worry – Mwajabu & the her team did ensure the top level – frankly speaking much beyond my expectations. I also cannot say a single word of complaint about our driver Michael and our guide in Mikumi, Bob – they both spoke good English and were very helpful and made their best efforts to ensure that we have great memories from the trip.
On the spot in Mikumi we were lucky enough to see almost every big mamal species that can be found there (except for leopards and hyenas – hope for better luck next time). All of us, not only the kids, were fascinated with the African wildlife.
Mwajabu booked us a lodge at Camp Bastian – we got a huge and comfortable apartment, they have a very nice swimming pool on the spot so we could refresh and cool down after the daytime emotions. Also the food they serve there was delicious.
During the second day of safari, prior to our trip to Udzungwa N.P. we paid a short visit to the Massai boma nearby Mikumi N.P. – contrary to my concerns it turned out to be a real village, not any fake for mzungus

Amazing experience from start to finish!
We had a fantastic 5-day safari with Kiboko in Feb 19. Claire was always on hand to discuss the trip before we left and had organised everything whilst we were there perfectly! Lenny, our guide, was brilliant and so knowledgeable about the animals. We learnt so much and it was lovely to meet him and learn more about the Masai. It’s difficult to imagine how it could have been any better, the trip of a lifetime!!

Amazing Gorilla encounter, canoeing in traditional African canoe
Have always thought using a guide service was for old people, people who were lazy or unadventurous.
First time using and what a great experience, you get to see/do everything you want to, built in interpreter, photographer and negotiator on trinket purchases, they know all the best restaurants and lodges, provide a stress free enjoyable time and if you hire a locally based service you are supporting the local economy.
So, thank you Farouk, Frederick and www.eastafricanjunglesafaris.com
