Excellent Safari and Great Value for Money
I had an 11-day awesome, unforgettable trip across Kenya and Tanzania.
Peter, the owner was incredibly friendly, professional, very responsive and helpful throughout the whole booking process and even got me some local mosquito repellent that I requested. Both the Kenyan and Tanzanian crew made sure that I am having a great and memorable time and helped me in every possible way. They provided very personalized attention.
We saw the Big Five animals within the first three days of safari - and saw plenty of other truly unbelievable sights along the way. Cannot say enough good things about Peter and Africa Flash McTours! I highly recommend this company!

Outstanding budget safari to Masai Mara for two with transfer on to the Serengeti
Excellent, reliable company to organise a safari with and very highly recommended. We wanted something a bit different (a land transfer into Tanzania at the Sirare border on the western side of Masai Mara) and Serene East Africa Safaris coped wonderfully with this, providing us with good options for a private safari (just the two of us) that were within our budget-level price range. The accommodation chosen was amazing given our budget (Mara Base Camp - highly recommended). Vehicle comfortable and reliable (minivan which is typical for here and much cheaper than land cruisers), driver helpful and capable. The wildlife viewing was exceptional (the wildebeest migration had crossed into Masai Mara from the Serengeti). Transfer from the MM to the Sirare border does not seem to be common so I provide some detail here. It is a 4 hour, really pleasant scenic drive - not a main roads so on dirt roads but not a problem. There was a fuss free handover directly to our Tanzanian safari driver at the border; the two safari vehicles just parked beside each other. The border passport controls (the Tanzanian side is a new building) and paperwork took just 15 minutes. You absolutely MUST have a yellow fever vaccination certificate to cross the border (although theoretically I think this is not required - depending on where you have traveled - you will still be asked for it). Taking vehicles across the border can be a big headache so we had a Tanzanian reistered vehicle and driver waiting for us for our Serengeti part of the trip. The two drivers were in good communication so this all went smoothly. This way of getting around to the Serengeti is a good budget alternative to going back to Nairobi, flying from there or going via the main land crossing. Be aware that it is still a few hours drive from this border before you get into the Serengeti National Park. Thanks Lucy and Serene East Africa Safaris for helping make our trip a fantastic experience.

Tammy at Pembury Tours Created the Perfect Experience for Us!
Our first time to Africa. Tammy at Pembury spent a lot of time to create the perfect itinerary for us. From the very start of communication with Tammy, to post trip follow up, Tammy was truly amazing. The lodging, Safari's, day trips, drivers, pickups, and communication with Tammy was excellent. We had a perfect trip to a country that was new to us thanks to Tammy. Thank you Tammy! You're amazing!

Amazing memories that will stay with us forever!
We booked a three day/two night safari with Hello Tanzania and it was perfect from start to finish! Mwajabu Mo is incredibly organised and always available to answer any questions or deal with any changes to the booking. She was able to arrange a last minute change of accommodation practically at the drop of a hat. She was always ready to make sure our trip was everything we'd hoped for. She came to our hotel the evening before to take payment and talk us through the itinerary which was very helpful.
Our driver, Abdallah, was also amazing. The drive to and from Dar Es Salaam to Mikumi is approx 5 hours each way and he drove us very safely. He had a great sense of humour and was very attentive. We were supplied with water and snacks which we really appreciated!
The tours themselves are experiences we will never forget. From the Mikumi safari to the waterfall hike. Everything ran like clock work thanks to the fantastic organisation by all involved.
Vuma hills (luxury tented cabins) and camp Bastian (concrete lodges - high standard!) were where we stayed. Both amazing, the food especially was delicious. The staff at each were very warm and welcoming which is a huge part of what made our stay so fantastic.
100% would recommend Hello Tanzania. Thank you for helping us make memories that we will enjoy forever!

I couldn't have done it without Tanzania Choice Safaris!
Everything from the Safari to the mountain climb, Tanzania Choice Safaris was excellent! The guides for the safari knew so much, they really taught us about the parks, the animals, and even the plants/trees. It was amazing! The guides for the climb were unreal too. I honestly don't think I would have made it to the top without Festo, our main guide. He was so encouraging not only for me but to our whole group..."Go Big Red!"

Tamarind Safari: Fantastic Experience in Zambezi with the best guides!
I made the Tamarind Safari, which was 4 days and 3 nights canoeing from Chirundu to Mana Pools & sleeping in sand islands in Zambezi . It has been one of the most beautiful experiences I have had. Our Guide "Zera" had more than 25 years experience, and you need someone that really knows the hippos... The Safari is a mix of total contact and peace with Nature, while you canoe in the midst of the sunrise but then the adventure of passing by through thousands of hippos. The sunset in Vundu Island was amazing... and even the food was really good. I think its the best way to know a natural park like Mana Pools. Highly recommendable!
