spectacular safari with competent guide
positive: professional preparation, excellent guide with know how about animals and landscape but also about Tanzania's people and society, well chosen hotels in Arusha, Lake Manyara and in Central Serengeti, good food and drinks
not so positive: special needs for handicapped pax were not communicated to all hotels as required, a bit of hassle with the payment (but solved finally), one hotel on the rim of Ngorogoro was totally overpriced

The most amazing experience of my life
Words cannot describe how amazing an experience this holiday was. Superb locations, the most hospitable people who are passionate at welcoming visitors and ensuring you have the best possible holiday. It was such a privilege to be able to see all that Tanzania had to offer. Can’t wait to come back in the future

Amazing family trip to Tanzania - breathtaking landscapes, amazing people,powdery beaches.
8 of us (2 families of 4 w tweens) had an amazing trip to Tanzania this August. Shadows of Africa was wonderful for our private safari through the Serengeti. Especially loved the amini life lodge where we learned of Maasai tribe and slept in mid huts, and the opportunity to stay in tented camps. Zanzibar was a fabulous finish - relaxing on powdery beach, swimming w dolphins in the wild. Fabulous trip all around!
Amazing
We had such a great time! We had a 3 day safari with Michael, he is such a great guide. The boat safari was really beautiful, on the second day it was the game drive and we saw a lot animals, lion, wildebeest, elephant, birds, monkeys, impalas, buffalo, zebras... the last day we made a safari walk with a bushman, and came across wild elephants, it was a dream coming true. The accommodation was ok, sometimes we had no water in the shower, but everything else makes that good, the food from Amos was soooo good! Every night he made a veggie meal and I loved it! We miss it already. We did a short safari and i really recommend them.

Amazing!
We have visited Lake Manyara, Serengeti (2 days), Ngorongoro and Tarangire.
It was an amazing experience, worth every dollar spent.
We've seen many animals, big 5 included.
Amazing Experience!
We had a great trip with Watu Safaris to Selous and Mikumi. The combination of the two parks made that we had a great experience and saw lots of wildlife. Excellent guide and great service by the people of Watu Safaris. An amazing experience!

Our safari to Mikumi was perfect - the wildlife was stunning and our driver, Nico was wonderful
We had a wonderful 2 day trip to Mikumi with RajaTours - we saw elephants, giraffes, wilderbeast, zebra, hippos, warthogs, baboons, birds, buffalo, lots of Impala and the highlight was seeing a leopard. Although the drive from Dar was long - we managed to see wildlife on both days and our driver Nico was great - charming, accommodating and went out of his way to look after us. We stayed at the Tan Swiss Lodge which I would highly recommend- perfect evening swim, friendly, welcoming staff and lovely food. Rajab was extremely helpful - he responded quickly to emails and made the booking really easy- even a follow up email to check we had enjoyed ourselves. COudnt have asked for more!

You must experience it because pics & videos can never capture the essence of a Tanzanian Safari
Everything was like a dream. The scenery itself is breathtaking, but with the animals, the experience becomes surreal. The animals roam the land freely, without humans getting in their way. Our accommodations were a perfect blend of luxury and camping (glamping), which gave us the feeling of early safari explorations with a touch of modern essentials. The food was locally sourced and delicious. The weather during our 5 day Safari was cool in the mornings and evenings, in the 80s (fahrenheit) during the peak of the day (we never wore shorts and wished we hadn't packed them). The air was very dry, though we did have a tiny bit of rain for about 30 minutes one afternoon. We did not know about Tarangire before, but are very grateful our booking company suggested we stop there. We thoroughly enjoyed it as well as the Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

Trip of a lifetime!
I can say nothing but great things about Suricata. Great equipment, food, car, cook Salim and guide Ezekiel. They are both assets to the company. We saw almost all the wildlife we hoped to, didn't manage to spot a rhino or leopard. Guess this means we just have to go back! Would definitely recommend.

Incredible experience
Our three day safari to Ngalawa camp in Selou was amazing and far exceeded our expectations. The wildlife and scenery were breathtaking and our guide ensured we saw all the animals we wanted to during our full day in the jeep, spending just the right amount of time at each place and telling us interesting facts about the animals, birds, trees and other nature. The accommodation was perfect for us and the food was really good. I cannot fault our safari as it was perfect in every way.
