Hoppy has a fantastic eye for finding wildlife and was great fun to travel with!
Wildlife Safaris is amazing. They are wonderfully responsive, incredibly knowledgeable, and highly skilled at catering to families with specialized needs (we have a kid with severe food allergies). We traveled with 2 adults and 3 kids (ages 17, 11, and 9) — our kids LOVED the tour, the accommodations, the food, and most of all our tour guide, Hoppy (as did we). Strongly recommend. This company is simply fantastic! And for all of you busy moms out there who may be planning this yourself — this company gets it! They follow up and help you get it right when time is really tight. Cannot recommend this company enough!!

Best tour (and guide) ever !!
I did the tour for 2 nights(3 days) and it was definitely worth the money and I had such a good time. Our driver and guide James was absolutely the best!! Thank you James for making the trip even better. I had the luck of sharing the safari van with nice fellow travellers and we all connected so well and overall had awesome time together.
If you’re looking for a safari experience that you won’t forget, I can’t recommend Axis enough (and ask for James !!).
Thank you guys!

Private Safari in Southern Tanzania
After a COVID-related postponement of the trip, the time had finally come in September 2021 and we (my husband and I) were able to start our private safari through Southern Tanzania (Nyerere N.P., Mikumi N.P., Ruaha N.P., Udzungwa N.P.) with a beach holiday on Mafia Island – what an unforgettable trip!
From our point of view, the entire travel preparation and organization (complicated by COVID) worked perfectly and the communication (countless emails) was wonderful. We felt very personally advised and cared for!
The trip itself fully met our expectations – even exceeded them. We always felt in good hands with Michael and Richard and the “brought us closer” to real Tanzania. And the game drives with breathtaking animal observations were of course the highlight of our trip. The accommodations were great and the food mostly even better. And of course we really enjoy the quiet time (very few other guests).
Our conversations with Michael have now whetted our appetite for Northern Tanzania. And when the time comes, we can very well imagine requesting again with TANZANIA SAFARI BUG – we are sure it will be an individual trip away from the big tourist crowds.
So in short: many, many thanks for the excellent personal support before and during the trip and of course for the wonderful tour through Southern Tanzania.

Great luck and great guide
We had a great time in Amboseli. Our driver Andrew picked us up at our hotel, and explained what our first day would be like. After the trip to the accommodation we went into the reserve for our first spotting. Andrew kept contact with other drivers via phone and radio so that he could give us the best possible experience. When we got back at the accommodation our driver suggested to leave early next morning for a long trip instead of two separate trips, morning and evening. This way we would have better chances at seeing all the animals, since one long trip allowed us to drive deeper inside the reserve. Offcourse he could not guarantee us anything, but it would greaten our chances. And that it did. We got very lucky, seeing every possible animal up close. From cheetah to elephant, hippo’s, giraffes, a waterbuffalo, zebras, gazelles, warthogs, everything in close range to our vehicle. Unfortunately we forgot to bring binoculars, so we got very lucky being able to see al animals up close. Later on that day we got to see two lions as well, a bit further in the distance. Andrew arranged vegan lunch for my girlfriend and myself, which tasted great. The next day we did a morning drive and after that we drove back to our hotel ik Nairobi. I feel like we got very lucky on our safari, both with all the animals we spotted as with our amazing guide and driver Andrew.

Lifetime safari
African safari is expensive, but really appreciate Sino Africa Safari made it affordable for us. We had a 7 days safari in Kenya. It was perfect including driver Samuel, mid-range hotels which were comfortable and african style, food was delicious, and we saw hundred types of animals! We really miss Kenya and wish to go for another safari!

Jonathon is the man of the Masai Mara! He knows everyone and everything.
We have just finished a 3 night, 4 day safari of the Masia Mara, staying at Mara Simba Lodge. We were collected by Jonathon from our accommodation in Nairobi and started the 5 hour journey to the national park.
This is our second safari (the first being in Tanzania) and we can’t tell you how important it is to have a passionate and friendly guide. Jonathan knew every spot to head to, all the rangers we came across and the other drivers, this meant he had a constant supply of information allowing us to see everything (Lions, Cheetahs, Elephants, hippos etc!) He’s also a very passionate photographer so was always looking for the perfect shot. He has being coming to the Masai Mara for 19 years so his knowledge of the area and the animals was highly valuable to the experience.
Kenyan Adventures were very accommodating and were very efficient when it comes to communication. We booked this trip prior to Covid and had to cancel and rearrange multiple times, Robert and the team were very helpful in allowing us to pick new dates. We cannot recommend this company enough!

Dancing Zebra was an absolute pleasure to work w/ & if I'm fortunate to go again it will be w/ DZ!!!
Before leaving for this trip of a lifetime, I was overwhelmed with the feelings of gratitude to be so fortunate and blessed to be able to experience such an amazing opportunity. Dancing Zebra and Tanzania did not disappoint!! I left this Safari and experience with even more gratitude and appreciation then I ever expected. On our drive to the Serengeti airport on our departure day, I couldn't keep the tears from falling as I reflected on my time on safari in Tanzania. Besides the beautiful, breathtaking and unique landscapes and most AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL animals, the people of Tanzania were beyond wonderful! For those who travel, we all know that it's the people that make the place. The welcome, the hospitality, the spirit and the smiles of the Tanzanian people were also a huge part of this special experience. And our most beloved Tanzanian....Ian, our safari guide! We were beyond blessed to have him guide us, teach us and share this experience with us. Thank you Ian for everything!!! We will never, ever forget you!!! You are truly the best! Although everything was beyond wonderful, this would all not be possible if it wasn't for our knowledgeable, caring and hard working tour operator Jessica at Dancing Zebra. Her passion for Tanzania and it's people shine through and her personable and thorough approach let you know you are in great hands. Jessica stuck with us through the trying times of Covid and delivered the most amazing, special and memorable itinerary one could ask for. I wouldn't have changed a thing and if I am so fortunate and blessed to be able to go on safari again, it will be with Jessica at Dancing Zebra. THANK YOU Jessica for your caring touch and your personable investment in making this vacation into what dreams are made of! I will never forget this one!!! MAHALO NUI LOA!!!

Awesome!!! Certainly one of the best experience I have had.
The tour from start to finished exceeded my expectations and added to my overall awesome visit to Africa. The bus came on time with two of the most well trained drivers/staff
