An unforgettable journey!
Personal contact, really listening to requirements, honoust advice, swift replies, clear communication, love for this beautiful country and its peopele and a wonderfull host at Jjaja Bbanga. That’s my experience with Sander and Grassrootz.
A 21day safari, by myself and with guide, covering Lake Mburo, Bwindi, Queen Elizabeth, Kibale, Murchisons, Kidepo (IK & Nakapelimoru), Sipi and as much as possible community based accomodation was the result based upon my requirements. The trip exceeded my expectations.
I was a bit worried about travelling for 21 days with a person never met before. On the first day this worry was taken away immediately. Paul is a real host. Driving safely, punctual, caring, know’s his way (and lots of people), loves to tell about the country, people and animals. Every evening during dinner the plan for the next day so well prepared. A very smooth trip.
All accomodations had its own charm or challenge but that’s what I wanted and liked. Some of them exceeded. Broadbill I really loved for its environment, good food and wonderfull care. Boomu’s womens group: Ednah is really an inspiring woman, a lady with a view and a clear missiom. Home of Friends, a beautiful new place with really great hosts and creating feeling of home by having dinner together and play games.
Gorilla and chimp trekking were extraordinary. To meet these animals face to face in their own habitat is so beautiful and special.
Kidepo in one word amazing and a must visit region. Guides Emma (to the IK) and Joseph (to the Nakapilemoru) made these visits extra special. Especially Joseph, sitting on sliding rock, overseeing the region and him telling the stories about the cattle raiding with the biggest smile I have ever seen. Felt like being part of the story.
I will reccomend Grassrootz warmly to everyone who want’s to experience the country and above all its beautiful people.
Thanks Sander & Paul for creating this wonderfull and unforgettable trip.

7 Wonders provides professional, prompt and family-like safari program.
On our trip to Tanzania, we did a safari, Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar -- we did the safari first, and by far, it was my favorite part of the trip. The safari exceeded my expectations. Besides the fact that the scenery and animals are surreally beautiful, 7 Wonders did an excellent job in arranging everything so that we had a smooth and enjoyable trip. I was worried at first with our group solely made up of female travelers, but I felt very safe with our guide Godfrey (including his driving skills on the unpaved roads of the Serengeti). We saw the Big Five on our safari, and I can say, it is thanks expertise of our guide. Our guide was experienced and personable, with many guides stopping to ask him for his advice. Literally, at times, I think Godfrey was more excited to see the animals than we were -- his excitement too was contagious. Calvin, the cook, was also a great chef (at one point, the tourists on another table asked to have some of our food because Calvin was just a better cook). Evelyn, the manager at 7 Wonders, was also very professional -- she always promptly responded to emails and was flexible in our payment methods. The price also of 7 Wonders was very reasonable compared to the dozens of other companies I reached out to. I would give the safari experience a 10/10, and I recommend others to ask for Godfrey and Calvin, too, as their guide and chef.

Amazing Safari Holiday with Bright African Safaris
From February 26th to March 6th, 2018 we had a memorable safari holiday in Tanzania with Bright African Safaris. With our experience with them we have nothing but good things to say about this travel company. Before we booked the holiday I took time to visit many a Tanzania forums and travel companies to check the itineraries and prices. I got many quotations from companies in Tanzania and in the UK.At the end Bright African Safaris had the best offer tailored to our requirements. They had the best price too. The company director Msangi Charema always prepared to change the dates, locations and accommodations according to our requests. He replied to our many e-mails instantly and provided all the information about many things that we wanted to know. We were highly impressed about his professionalism and understanding. We gave him a lot of trouble to get the best out of our money. It was not a bother for Msangi. During our holiday we were with an excellent guide Saleem. He has an unbelievable knowledge about the history and Fauna and Flora of Tanzania. He also has a very good and clear understanding about where to find wild life in huge parks that Tanzania has to offer. His knowledge about the road systems and the tracks in all the parks we visited is exceptional. He is very kind, friendly and nothing was too much of a trouble for him. He went out of his way to make our visit a the best we ever had. The vehicle we were given was a 4x4 jeep and had a fridge and a power point that allow you to charge batteries and mobile phones, that became a great help for us. Free bottled water and soft drinks were available through out our stay. Bright African Safaris has a policy of no limit on Fuel and Milage. So we were able to drive around all day every day in all the parks we visited. In all we were highly impressed about the services Bright African Safaris provided during our stay. We recommend this company to any one who is looking for a Safari Holiday.

Trustworthy company
We five peoples had an amazing 12 days safari in February 2018, the first thing we did right is to choice TSA as our safari’s operator.
Jordan and Iris run the company TSA very well, they always replied me very immediately by Email, and kept in touch with us by Skype from the moment of first contact to the end of trip. They suggested us a wonderful itinerary and give us a very competitive price, we finished all things about the final contract within 7 days from the first contact, their professionalism, efficiency and honesty are very impressive.
The accommodation is perfect, everything goes as expected, nothing need to adjust. James, our driver/guide, is excellent. He taken care us very well whole trip, and is a expert in spotting wildlife, led us seeing more than thousands of flamingos, hundreds of elephants, dozens of lions, 17 cheetahs, 5 leopards and more else. He also is a knowledgeable and interesting person.
The first class planning and organization, the most competitive price, the best guide/driver service, nothing I can ask for more to a safari operator. I would highly recommend TAS to anyone who dreams a fantastic safari , the TAS is your guarantee!
Thanks again to Jordan, Iris, James and all stuffs of TAS! We miss everything we experienced in Tanzania, and will be back to visit you and your great country again.

From the moment we were met at the airport by Brett to the end everything went perfectly
The communication all along was good and the service by Brett, ( who has to be the best bush guide in Africa) was outstanding. It was far better than we expected and despite the rains (which we bought with us) we saw everything imaginable really close up. The rains kept the cats at bay that that means we have to come again which is an excellent idea!!
The lodge and hotel were all perfect as was the food and choices we were offered.
Once again Brett Drew was outstanding!
Thanks

Second trip even better than first time!!
We had a wonderful time with Kichaos. It exceeded our expectations in all aspects. Samuel, our driver, the team at Arusha and in the field worked hard to make sure we had the best times of our lives - and we did. Our safari went without a hitch. We are seasoned travellers and this trip will rate as the best to date.
I want to mention a few of the things we saw. In Tarangire NP the bird life was prolific and on the first day we saw our first Leopard in a nearby tree. There were Elephants, Zebrass, Wildebeast and Baboons in large numbers. We saw 4 lions in trees and many more on the ground in Lake Manyara NP but the real stars there were the thousands upon thousands of Pink Flamingoes and the Pelicans. In the Serengeti we saw a Lion eating a Gazelle up in a tree and then 3 Hyenas corner the Lion and try to get the Lions' meal. In all we saw more than 50 (we stopped counting) Lions spread over the 4 parks we visited. We saw a Lioness with 4 cubs. We saw 7 Cheetahs and 5 Leopards all close up. We saw lions eating fresh kills on four different occasions. We saw elephants move on 2 large lions and force them out of the way so the elephants could cross the creek. In Ngorongoro NP we saw rhino.
Kichaos and Samuel thank you for such a great experience.

Amazing Safari!
Peter was great in arranging everything and our guide, Alex, was amazing. He went above and beyond, continually trying to create just the right experience. He was great at spotting hard to see wildlife and getting us nice and close.
