Yellow Zebra Safaris listens to their clients and provides them with an experience of a lifetime!
"You can not describe Africa you need to experience it and Yellow Zebra delivers. The logistics of the trip were executed flawlessly from being met on the tarmac in Arusha to be handed off to the Coastal Air pilot in the Northern Serengeti for the trip home.The lodges and bush camps are spectacular and the food in all is fantastic. My trip to Tanzania went beyond my expectations and I need to thank Yellow Zebra for their expertise in making it so."

Amazing Safari Adventure w/ Shadows of Africa
I used Shadows for my first trip to Africa - a Serengeti safari - and had a truly epic experience. Jake and Stacy were incredibly helpful in designing a custom trip that tailored to our interests and budget, and were continuously helpful leading up the trip, responding quickly to my countless!!! questions by email.
Once on the ground in Arusha, our driver Tino picked us up on time and guided us safely through the night to our hotel.
The next morning, our guide (and now friend!) Alex picked us up and set us off on an amazing 6 day adventure. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, speaks great English, and has eyes of a hawk! Driving at 50mph on the dirt roads of the Serengeti, Alex would spot cats stalking in the grass hundreds of yards away (no exaggeration)! Nothing short of incredible! In addition, Alex is great company and my traveling partner and I loved hanging with him in the after hours. ALEX IS YOUR GUY!!!
All in, we saw 4 rhinos, 4 leopards (including one kill a warthog!!!), 10 cheetahs a wildebeest crossing, 75+ lions, and countless elephants, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, gazelle, hyenas etc.
We spent the final few days in Zanzibar relaxing on the beach. Our guide there, Muhammad, was again very knowledgeable, reliable and great to be around. He helped setup a custom day of snorkeling and a fresh fish lunch on the beach, and gave us a super tour around Stone Town.
Victor is the local boots on the ground, and was a key asset to making our adventure seamless. We were in a pinch while in the bush, and somehow Victor was able to help hundreds of miles away. Thanks again Victor!!
The experience was incredible, and Shadows was an essential piece of that puzzle. Will be using them again for my next African adventure, and would recommend to anyone looking to make the journey!!!

Such a friendly family business who really care about making your holiday the best experience!
Mwajabu and Hello Tanzania truly made our holiday such a great experience! Firstly, she was always available over whatsapp or email to respond to my many queries having never been on a safari before. Our driver Osman was really friendly and got us through the very long drive from Dar es Salaam to Mikumi safely and back to the airport in Dar es Salaam with plenty of time to spare.
Secondly, our driver for the game drive Bob was excellent and very patient. He was a great spotter and even managed to get us up close to a lioness and her three cubs which was an amazing experience. Mwajabu had promised us a private game drive and that was exactly what we were given.
We stayed at Camp Bastian which had a lovely atmosphere. The cottages were clean and cosy. The staff were very welcoming and friendly.
Finally, we only used Hello Tanzania for our first part of our holiday which was the Safari element and booked a trip to Zanzibar separately. I would really recommend booking it all through Hello Tanzania as Mwajabu has many contacts with the airlines and people on Zanzibar. Mwajabu went out of her way and spent ages on the telephone arranging an earlier flight for us from Dar es Salaam to Zanzibar even though we had not even booked this part through her company. She then also arranged two drivers, one for a day trip on Zanzibar which she organised for us including a hotel transfer at the end of the day and one for our transfer between terminals in Dar es Salaam which meant all the little pieces of the holiday ran smoothly.

Professional Company, everything went well and was as per the agreed through email prior to travel.
Professional Company, their partner Lilian herself came to greet us on our arrival at Hotel in Nairobi. Her response through email and WhatsApp prior to our travel was prompt. An airport pick up was arranged. We (me and my wife) had a wonderful time in Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Nairobi. Everything was arranged well. She did keep us comfortable the whole trip and did extra mile to take us around in Nairobi and helped with shopping as well. It is a family travel business and she is a trustable respectable lady. Our experience was great and I will recommend Lian Travels to my friends and relatives.

Thanks, excellent organisation
Everything worked out very well. I had a good driver, and coming back I still made it to my connecting flight. I was visiting the mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable National Forest, and I was very lucky. I could see them very, very well!

Great safari. Saw the big 5 and more. Exeptional hospitality, could not fault it and the whole experience exceeded our expectations. We couldnt have been any happier. We had great fun and lots of laughs which was most important to us. I highly recommend Nicholas and his team for your once in a life time experience.

absolutely worth it!
Am an avid traveler and i needed a way to simplify my travel plans and expeditions. Jossec Tours made it absolutely easy for me to enjoy myself without having to do the hard lifting I had been doing earlier on in my travels. Again, absolutely worth it!
