From start to finish our experience with Wild Root Safaris was fantastic.
The service and attention to details regarding our booking request was above expectations. The tour was a 3 day safari to Lake Manyara National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park Tanzania. The highlight for us was the Ngorongoro Crater. Our driver/guide was very well informed, courteous & friendly making our trip so much more exciting. The lodges suggested to us were exactly what we had hoped for. All in all a great and relaxing safari.

Great Safari
I initially contacted several safari companies, and It Started in Africa always provided the quickest and most detailed email responses. They answered all my questions and were up-front about pricing for all the different options I asked about. I did an 8-day safari visiting Arusha NP, Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Lake Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Eyasi (Datoga and Hadzabe tribe visits). I stayed at public and private campgrounds, with one night in a mobile tented camp.
I really enjoyed the safari. Tanzania is a beautiful country. I loved seeing all the animals in the wild. I got to see several lions in trees and walking or lying around, many giraffes, elephants, and impalas, and the plains full of zebra and wildebeest. Many of the colorful birds and smaller animals were a lot of fun to watch, like the jackals running around and playing in the early morning. I liked the variety in scenery between the different parks. Ngorongoro Crater was like a green paradise, so peaceful and full of animals. It was interesting meeting people from all over the world in the campsites. My guide Deo was friendly, spoke English very well, and helped me see a lot of animals. The cook prepared very good meals with plenty of food; I was never hungry. All the Tanzanian people I met were very friendly. The tribe visits were also interesting, seeing the very different ways these people live. We stopped at a Maasai village on the way back to Arusha, and, as I had a little bit of time before we had to leave for the airport, the airport driver gave me a quick tour of the city. I was a little concerned going to Africa for the first time by myself, but everything worked out well from airport pickup to dropoff and I had a lot of fun.

Great day at Arusha National Park
Going for the Kili Challenge of WAR Child somebody mentioned to do a safari before climbing the Kilimanjaro. The contact for Makasa Tanzanian Safaris was given to me. I got a quick response on the possibility of doing a safari.
We had a great day with Tom, our driver, in the park. He could tell us a lot about animals but also about the plants, bushes and trees. Including the difference between a crater and a caldera. He gave us all the time and good spots for the pictures, story's and questions. At lunch time we got a good meal with a nice view at the caldera, including the Somasa Beef. I still like this snack from Tanzania.
We had to be back for the briefing of the Kilimanjaro tour in our Lodge, Tom planned the trip that good so we we're 15 before the start back in our lodge.
Most spectaculair moment of the day, we did see a lot of animals, was the albino baboon crossing the road in front of us.

Truly great!
As a lone traveler on this occasion, I linked up with Simba Adventures through my hotel reception desk, after visiting a number of other highly recommended safari operators in Arusha. I was fortunate enough to join a small group on a 2-day Tarangire/Ngorongoro game drive, with a stop at a campsite near Lake Manyara for the overnight, which lowered the price significantly as compared to what it would have cost me to go private, something which other local safari operators were not able to offer me. Juma, our driver and guide, was excellent with everybody - polite, informative, helpful, patient, which created a good atmosphere in the vehicle. We all became friends. We were extremely lucky to see no less than 19 lions at Tarangire, and about half that much in Ngorongoro, aside from plenty of elephants in both parks. Can't talk about other operators but this was certainly did the job!
Brilliant
Best trip ever, very professional guiding and a life changing experience.

Best wildlife and Beach holiday
We just concluded a safari which entailed Kenya and Zanzibar. It was an awesome experience and View Nature Tours had a perfect management .Being our first time in Africa, we thought it will be a hustle to find the best local operator but all our doubts were cleared after our first mail to VNT. The communication was quick and their price was flexible and pocket-friendly. The lodges in Kenya and the resort in Zanzibar were so cool. Many thanks team VNT for making our dream holiday come true.
