Wow, wow, wow!!! I don't even know where to start.
Wow, wow, wow!!! I don't even know where to start. This trip, with Laba Africa Expeditions, was amazing! First off, the company itself: When booking these types of tours from the US, most will ask that you wire transfer the money or pay the credit card service fee. I got super nervous on this part. After spending 5 days with this company- I now can safely tell people, don't worry! They are a very reputable company. Level of service: Our driver, Moses, was great! He picked us up right from the airport, had a sign with our name, and took care of us the entire trip. He was educated, spoke English well, was funny and was there to help us with whatever we needed. Vehicle: We had an older van type of car but we ended up loving it! The back seat was spacious and I even was able to jump in the third row seat and lay down for a bit if I wanted to. The top lifted off for us to see all of the great animals while driving. Our driver cleaned it every night for us and made sure we had fresh water each day. Animals: we went in January and we saw so many animals. We did the safari portion, the chimps and the gorillas and all were amazing. I would do the exact same trip again anytime! Tipping: Don't forget to tip about $20 (more if you want) per day per person. We gave him the tip at the very end and gave him US dollars. We made sure before leaving the US the bills were newer as they don't accept older bills in Uganda

Fantastic Safari, great staff, Super Company to book with!!!
The owner of MangiEmpire Safaris; Nova is very friendly and helpful, he will make you feel super comfortable no time! We did a 5 days private tour safari in the northern parks: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Hilary came to pick us up at Arusha airport and took care of our overnight accommodation in Arusha. The safari was beautiful! Our guide was the best and really took care of us for all 5 days. I truly recommend MangiEmpire Safaris! Write to Nova and he will organize your itinerary based on how many days you have and what you would like to see. The price is good; the jeeps are good and well maintained! Don’t bother finding other Companies, This one is Super, you won’t regret!!!

My sincere recommendations to anyone!
My friend and I did a 4-day safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire and it was amazing!!! We were first time travelers to Africa and weren't quite sure what to expect, but from the moment we landed to the time we got dropped off, we felt so comfortable, safe, and had an incredible time!! We arrived at the Kilimanjaro airport and our guide was there to pick us up with a sign and take us to the hotel in Arusha, then we started the safari the next day. The scenery was just out of this world and we saw so many animals! The Hotels was comfortable and the food was pretty good. We've traveled to lots of places, but Africa is just unlike anything else. We were very happy we chose MangiEmpire Tours as our safari company; they made this the trip of a lifetime!! You are the best guys

Everything worked great, professional and nice service ecpecially our guide Patrick was excellent.
We had a four day panorama and safari tour. Everything was perfect. We were met always on time. We saw the big five and a cheetah which is very rare. I have travelled a lot but this was the best experience in my life and a big thank belongs to our guide Patrick. He found the best places and was an excellent driver and besides nice and friendly.

Best company ever - Thank you for this amazing safari!!
Just finished a 4 days Safari with MangiEmpire Tours & Safaris.
We were a group of 2 – Father (50) and daughter (18)
Overall excellent experience. There are tons of companies organizing safaris so it is hard to compare, but MangiEMPIRE Safaris is definitely a great one. We did all the booking over mail/Whatsapp with Nova, who showed great flexibility to our itinerary and hotels requests. After consulting with him, we agreed to have about 2 days in Serengeti and 1 day in Ngorongoro.
We also picked together the hotels in order to have a varied experience (we had 1 night in the KatiKati tented camp, 1 night at the excellent Serena Lodge and 1 last night at the very fancy Neptune lodge.)
We had an experienced and knowledgeable guide who catered to all our requests, and was ready to have very long days with us in the field. This included driving the extra distance to take us to the south part of the Serengeti in order to see the first large groups or migrating animals (mainly Zebras and
Cheetah) returning to the Serengeti.
Also, as we had a very late flight on the day returning from the Safari, while my daughter had her hair done the Tanzania way with many small braids, and took us to a nice place to eat as we insisted tasting Nyama Choma (BBQ meat with bananas) before leaving.

INCREDIBLE SAFARI TOUR!!
Our safari tour with Zohar African Safaris was more than amazing! The service was astounding! Before starting the game drives, we had the pleasure of meeting Lilian, the director of the safari. She gave us all the tips that we needed to have a great safari experience. Our guide, Babu, was extremely nice and always on time for every activity. He always cared about our safety and really cared about the animals and the nature. Thanks to Babu, we were able to see more than 20 different species of animals - it was incredible! Additionally, the food that was provided was delicious and you did not leave hungry in any occasion. I STRONGLY recommend this safari to anyone that is going to Tanzania!

Philemon has been attentive and very flexible in building a journey that reflects our request.
Philemon was attentive and very flexible to build a course that reflects our demand for sites of interest and type of accommodation. He is a man of confidence and it was a beautiful stay.
Remember to ask the driver to stop to benefit more, he adapts to the marathon pace does not suit you. Flat: shame about half a day in a park without seeing anything ...

Unforgettable 14 days in Uganda
We booked a 14 day safari tour with Grassrootz Uganda and all our expectations were met or even exceeded!
During the planning phase the communication with Sander worked very well and at the end we received a tailor made, detailed itinerary nicely prepared on the internet.
Our destinations: Start in Entebbe and then, Murchison Falls National Park, Kibale Forest National Park, Northern Queen Elizabeth National Park, Southern Queen Elizabeth National Park, Lake Mutanda, Lake Mburo National Park.
It was a completely successful tour with highlights every day and our driver/guide Moses was always helpful, friendly and competent.
I can fully recommend Grassrootz. We got a great trip for a fair price!
