A fantasic trip for the whole family
We just came back from an amazing first trip to Tanzania. Tanzania Explorer tailor made a trip for us according to who we are, what we wanted, time of year and budget and we were all very satisfied with the result. Two families with children aged from 8 to 15 all had a fantastic and magical time specially in Ngorongoro and Serengeti, and we would not hesitate recommending this to others. Our guides were very knowledgeable and great travel companions and we definitely would like to go back some day!

Fascinating worthwhile trip and great guide/driver trip
Collection and drop off went well, apart from a slight delay switching minibuses on the way back. We felt packed in at times but no complaints, you were busy.
The tours at the camp were good and we were really impressed by our driver/guide who was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The vehicles are old and need replacing. The accommodation was ok - a bit tired - and the food and drinks were fine; just occasionally the level of service overall slipped.
The tour to Kruger went well but the arrangement of the vehicle with the driver in the front and the passengers behind in the back meant that communications with him were difficult, but he was very helpful when we did have a problem which was nothing to do with Viva Safaris

Excellent Safari
My experience in Tanzania wouldn't be complete if it weren't for the amazing team at Afrishare Trekking and Safaris that organized our Safari and Mt. Kilimanjaro climbing expedition. The team was well organized and approached all our needs with a lot of care. Both the Safari crew and Mt. Kilimanjaro climbing crew were well trained and possessed lots of knowledge in their respective fields.
Thanks Ibrahim and the whole team at Afrishare for the amazing holiday experience you gave us and I hope to do more expeditions with you guys in the future.

Truly Amazing...
If you are looking for a good, affordable, private vacation with a luxury touch, you may not find a better choice.
Good communication, honest policies and value for your money. Quite a few times, those are sufficient for a worry-free vacation. Add to it what folks at Amazing Memories do - Management that takes the time to custom fit your experiences and Drivers that seem to really enjoy and care about their work - and you have all the ingredients for a super vacation.
True to their name, these folks gave us some truly amazing memories. Thank you.
One more thing, I want to give a special shout out to our driver - Danial.
He was a pleasant surprise. Intelligent, knowledgeable, informative, curious, caring and kind to the kids - perfect combination for us. We learned a lot from him about life, people and politics in Kenya.
Advise to management:
Please provide itineraries that can accommodate flight choices - at least for some segments of the journey. Infrastructure in Kenya is not to a point where road journey is feasible for all folks.

Professionalism and work ethics at its best.
We had the pleasure of doing our Safari and climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro courtesy of Afrishare Trekking and Safaris. Being our first visit to Tanzania we were a bit skeptic in our anticipation, but as it turned out we had made the right choice by settling with Afrishare as our travel partner. We had travelled as a group and I was handed the responsibility of making the arrangements for our visit to Tanzania.
We arrived in Tanzania and were well received at the airport by Ibrahim the C.E.O of the firm and he was very helpful to us. He started by giving us our safari briefings and a glimpse of Tanzanian history which was very interesting. The knowledge he exhibited of his country was vast and pretty much enlightened us on the amazing time we were going to have with Afrishare and in Tanzania as a whole.
Our accommodation was very comforting and the food was amazing; a mixture of both local and international cuisine prepared by a team of well trained chefs.
According to our schedule we started off by climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro on a 5 day trip via Marangu route. The climbing crew comprised of two well trained certified Mountain Guides, a chef and his assistant and team of ten porters. The overall work done by the Mountain crew was exceptional. The mountain guides knew all the terrain of the Mountain and they gave us a well detailed information pertaining the history of Mt. Kilimanjaro.
After our expedition of Mt. Kilimanjaro we had a 4 day Safari of Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire which was top notch in standards. Our Safari driver Fred showed an immense amount of knowledge of the places we visited and he was very good in spotting animals that we were all excited to see.
Overall, what I can say is that we had the best time of in Tanzania and all that wouldn't be possible if it weren't for Afrishare's amazing team.
Thank you so much Afrishare for the amazing experience you offered us and we would definitely come back for another expedition and partner up with you guys.

Once in a lifetime experience
I had an amazing time with Hekima Safaris when travelling to Arusha with my three friends! We did a trekking tour to Mt Meru and because we liked it so much we also booked spontaneously our 4day Safari with them. We had a wonderful experience getting to know the diverse and beautiful sides of Tanzania all thanks to Hekima Safaris! They cared a lot about our concerns and wishes and made everything possible in an individual and relaxed way! Furthermore I am happy to have found new friends there <3 I would always go back and I can recommend anyone to book through Hekima Safaris if you wanna get the real local Tanzania experience and meet amazing people! Asante sana for the amazing time!

Amazing!!
We used Uniglobe's services for a 4-day safari in the Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru. We had a great experience. Our guide Justice was amazing. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. The lodges recommended/booked by Uniglobe were also great.
I would highly recommend using Uniglobe if you are booking a Safari in Kenya.

Excellent!
They are professional and they organized great safari for us. Upon arrival, we stayed in their hotel for a night (also after safari); hotel was really nice, clean and with good wifi. We were in contact with Geofrey, he was really nice, he answered all our e-mails promptly and arranged safari for us. Safari was with another company they are working with. Our driver for first 3 days (Serengetti, NgoroNgoro) was Frederick and we had the best time! Saw many animals and he stopped when ever we asked him to. He also arranged for us to visit Masai village on the way back (we asked him to). There was a chef with us, too; he made us pancakes for breakfast (and that was 5:30 am!!!). Our last day we went to Manyara, changed group, but the driver for that day was nice as well. I think they changed schedule slightly from what we first booked (Manyara came last instead of first day), but we saw everything we agreed so I don't see the problem. I think most of companies on this site work together (people in our gorup booked from different places), but comparing prices we paid, I believe ours was more than fair. We definitely recommend Meru Slopes!
