The tour itself is very nice but be careful with the payment
Basically, the tour is quite well organised and planned and everything worked out. We saw a lot of the country and even more animals. It was really nice.
But be careful with the payment. The organisation tries to take money out of your pockets wherever possible. It starts with a very bad exchange rate and allegedly high bank fees that you have to pay additionally to the tour operator and then again afterwards to the bank. In addition, you often have to pay for two days' admission to the park, even though you only spent one day in the park. However, you do not get the money back.
In addition, they are very uncooperative and unfriendly when you ask them questions about this, put you under a lot of pressure and immediately threaten you with the police if you try to defend yourself.
The tour itself is highly recommended, as long as you pay attention to the payment.

Great safari experience
Our party of 6 went on a 3 day (2 nights) safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We booked Adventure Makers Tanzania on a recommendation from a friend, and we weren't disappointed. Steven, the head of the company, was our driver and he was really great. He was patient and accommodated our every wish (like stopping 1000x for the toilet). He is funny and pleasant, always smiling.
The price was as we discussed earlier, no surprises there. Even though everyone keeps reminding you that in Africa everything is pole pole (slow), Steven was always pretty much on time.
Zahoro was our accompanying chef and his food was very good.
The tour itself was very rewarding, Steven made sure we could get a good look and nice pictures of the animals and the landscape, he was always reminding us to say STOP whenever we saw something picture worthy, even though most of the time he stopped before we even knew what was there. We were lucky enough to see the big 5 thanks to Steven.
Everything was taken care of by Steven, he even picked us up at the airport and drove us to the hotel the day before our safari, then took us to another hotel when we were finished. Not to mention that the day after we were done with the safari, he personally brought me my jacket I forgot in the car the day before. I only have the nicest things to say about the trip, and a big thank you to Steven for making my time in Tanzania a great experience!

Best comms with a tour operator
Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances I could not attend the safari. But the entire booking process was a breeze and Isaya was so helpful in organising what would of been the perfect safari tour. A very understanding tour operating group when I could not attend and I will 100% use them in the future when I return to tanzania as nothing was too much trouble for them. Best communication with a tour operating group I’ve ever encountered.

Just wonderful !!!!
An incredible experience!
We traveled with Safari by Z as a group, two families (ages approx.
15 - 48 years) We chose "The Taste of Tanzania" and were excited!
Our guides Fadhili and Lemomo welcomed us warmly and were by our side the whole days.
We visited Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Park and Lake Manyara. The guys are great, we were traveling with two vehicles and Fadhili our driver fulfilled all our wishes. Driving in Tanzania can be very exciting but we felt safe with him at all times. We were excited to see so many animals (elephants, lions, giraffes and leopards etc.) and he was able to tell us everything very interesting and he has a great knowledge about nature, culture and animals. We were especially happy to have our guides with us in the lodges and at meals so you get a nice connection.
The lodges we stayed at were wonderful and everyone was very nice and attentive. At Pamoja Olea Farm Lodge we got to take a farm tour and enjoy home grown coffee.
Special thanks also to Gladys from the office, who supported us so great with the booking and planning and had a lot of patience with us.
From the first mail to the end of the trip we felt very well taken care of!
After the safari we stayed for a few days in Z Hotel in Zanzibar. We can also recommend this hotel to everyone.
My conclusion: We are excited and can highly recommend Safari by Z! ! ! !

The most professional tour company! Would highly recommend
My husband and I, along with 2 friends, just returned from a custom week-long Safari booked by Sino Africa and we had the best time! We had been conversing with Jong for almost 2 years while we planned and postponed our trip due to Covid. Jong was beyond flexible, communicative, and so helpful while we planned and replanned our trip! The week we spent with our driver Solomon surpassed our super high expectations. Solomon was so friendly and knowledgeable and kept our experience super fun and safe. We saw SOOO many amazing animals and we loved all our hotel accommodations. A++ experience and we will certainly recommend Sino Africa and Solomon to everyone! We cannot wait to do another safari again soon!

Amazing
We went on a 6 day safari with Zohar and had the most amazing time! Lillian was extremely helpful from the beginning helping us tailor our safari to suit our needs and wants and provided lots of useful information on arrival. Our guide Leo was extremely knowledgeable and spotted the most amazing things on our game drives. All the accommodation was beautiful and the meals etc provided were always delicious! We felt we really got a personal touch with Zohar and nothing was ever too much bother. The trip really exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend booking with Zohar.
