Great safari adventure in Tanzania
The safari brought us to the unequaled beauty of wildlife in four parks in Tanzania. The guide was very knowledgeable l and fun to be with. We encountered a few mechanical problems with the jeep, but the guide was able to resolve them without overly impacting our excursions. The lodges were very nice and comfortable. We loved the trip.
The one thing that was unexpected was that the manager of the safari office wanted US$ cash payment for the balance due before we began the safari, but we had been told that credit card payment was acceptable. As we had limited cash, we were able to agree on both a cash and credit payment, but this was inconvenient and not right.

Excellent organisation and effective communication
We had a great experience with It started in Africa.
Our guide Joel was very knowledgeable on the best spots to see animals, in planning our schedule and in setting everything up everything to provide us with the best experience.
The service our cook David provided was very good, all food was excellent and prepared in a timely and professional manner.
We will definitely recommend these guys to colleagues and family who already asked for contact reference.

Family Holiday Tour
We had talked to the management team for Lukundo tours after been referred by a friend to them. indeed they planned a trip for me and my two children it was memorable, we visited Vipingo ridge resort and it was beyond my expectation. My kids really enjoyed and it left a mark in my heart. The driver was the best and he was very friendly and professional, i can't forget how he was chatting stories with my boy during the safari. They had the best rates, gave us the best options for our budget and did not disappoint. I will recommend them to anyone whether a domestic or foreign tourist.

Excellent safari experience in Ruaha NP, Tanzania
I have been on safari with UBON in June and had a perfect safari experience in Ruaha NP, Tanzania. We booked a two and a half weeks safari with UBON including flights from Dar es salaam into the Ruaha NP for 9 persons. Arriving in the park we had two very comfortable safari cars and two very friendly and nice drivers and guides waiting for us. The Ruaha River Camp chosen by UBON was fantastic with extraordinary views over the Great Ruaha River and a lot of wildlife around the camp. Within the three days in the park we saw a lot of wildlife, especially lots of elephants, giraffes, lions and a leopard just next to our cars which our drivers were searching for the whole afternoon. As one person of our group had turned 50 just a few days before departure UBON had organised a birthday cake as a surprise which was brought to us at the first dinner with a lot of singing and dancing and a lot of good feelings for us. I left the group on the fourth day when we arrived in Iringa to go to the south of the country. The rest of the group stayed in Iringa for two days visiting different sites with our guides and proceeded to Udzungwa NP afterwards. After three amazing days at Hondo Hondo Tented Camp they went to Dar to fly to Zanzibar for the last week. All accommodations we got were perfectly chosen and we were in contact with UBON during the whole trip, even though it was just to say that we were happy and enjoying our vacation in Tanzania.
It was not the first safari we have booked with UBON and I highly recommend everybody to book your safari with this highly professional tour operator. It´s just a good feeling if you can trust the people who are taking care of you in a foreign country which is not the case with all operators offering safaris in Tanzania.
Thanks a lot UBON in the name of all of us for this amazing weeks in Tanzania!

Fantastic in every way.
My husband and I wanted to have a "real" safari experience. We wanted a more personalized trip.
Wild Planet Safari offers you just that. In a private car , Ryan Kerr took us step by step on this wonderful journey while sharing with us all his knowledge about the animals and the African way of life. Our schedule was flexible
and at times he and his helper cooked us a breakfast in the most beautiful and picturesque places.
Ryan took care of us like we were his family, he is warm, kind, extremely organized and someone who you want to be friends with. I called him our own "African Crocodile Dundee"
A real fantastic trip. Next year wenare planing a family trip with Wild Planet Safari for our children and grandchildren.

The information provided by the company is Precise and the experience is awesome.
I had challenges choosing which tour company to go out with and the area to track from but when I got in touch with Trekkr Africa, everything got easier and choosing became alot easier. I had expected a big challenge tracking in the hilly Ruhija as per the information provided by the consultant at the company but when I got on the road with the assigned guide and went tracking, the experience turned out to be memorable. I got a one on one with the Gorillas and had a chance to take lovely pictures. Given a chance, I would track with them again and again. Thanks to the staff at Trekkr Africa Safaris.

Best Safari at best price
We are a group of friends. We have talked with many of the Safari Tours from Arusha. We chose Gosheni Adventures since they understand our needs and offered the best possible price. We did 5 days safari 1 night in Tarangire 2 nights in Serengeti and 1 night in Ngorongoro. Our choice was to stay in Luxury lodges and tented camps. And Gosheni Adventures provided us best value for money. They were very helpful during the organization process and also during the safari.
On the other side, our guide Samir was a perfect guide. He was very professional, knowledgeable, warm, and friendly. He made our trip much better! We have completed big five and had a very good time. We felt like he was a part of our group! Thank you Samir!
What can you expect more from a safari?
- Best price
- Professional Guide
- Helpful management team
- Good hotels
- Comfortable Car
We found all at Gosheni Adventures.
Thanks a lot again! We will see each other again!

Absolute trip of a lifetime,a phenominal experience with exceptional organisation and itinery.
Our trip was very well put together and so well organised we were able to travel with confidence and with no hassles. Everyday was a highlight and the safari camps, staff and guides were fantastic. My experience far exceeded my expectations. Wildlife was amazing, landscape mind blowing and accommodation beautiful. The chosen tour companies and guides were awesome and provided us with great information on our journeys through Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa. The whole package put together by Encompass Africa was perfect, an amazing trip of a lifetime and a holiday I will treasure for ever.

John Cooper's schedule and accomplishment is superlative!!
Excellence in every segment has characterised our recent journey with John Cooper of African Adventures. For three weeks his introductory tour brought us up close to a fabulous and diverse selection of regions, habitats and accommodation in southern Africa. John's access to some of the prime private concessions within the National Parks ensured that the only crowds were the free running animals. And as two of four Australian guests we made a fabulous and fun loving team with two very special American couples. Looking back, we would not wish to change anything.
John, we salute you!
