Fantastic Trip of a Lifetime
I had been on a safari the the Massai Mara in Kenya before, but this time I took my entire family. Wife, 2 kids (9 and 10) and my aging parents. Tanzania did not let us down. We did the northern loop (Tarangire, Manyara, Crater, Serengeti) and saw so much wildlife that we still think about it a year later. The landscapes are beautiful and the animals are breathtaking.
Some of the spots like the crater and around central serengeti are busy. Your guide makes your trip hands down. If you have an guide that just cares about time and not his clients, you will have a less than great stay. Our guide went above and beyond to cater to our every need and what we wanted to get out of each day. go to the busy areas first and then branch out to see what Tanzania has to offer. I recommend not staying in the large "tourist processing centers" but the tented camps.....What an adventure.
I cannot wait to go back.

Absolutely awesome family vacation
Great family vacation enjoying 10 days in Tanzania. Met at the airport by the owner of the safari tour group Fresh Mood Treks to help settle us in for a short stay for Christmas in Dar es Salaam . Then off for for a 5 day safari to Selous and Mikumi reserves. Our Fresh Mood Treks driver/guide, Ezikel was awesome- on time for every aspect of the trip, safe on the roads and he always took the extra time to make sure we were settled in at the camp where we stayed at the end of the day. Both game parks were excellent- Selous with heavier bush cover where we were up close to plenty of giraffe , elephant, baboon, impala and the on Rufiji River ride able to enjoy Hippos and Crocs. Mikumi was more open and filled w/ giraffe, elephants, zebra, baboon, warthog, hyena, eland, hippo, a great family of lions only a few feet from the road. - and some how Ezikel our guide was able to find us a leopard in a tree from a few hundred yards away! Fresh Mood Trek overall a great choice .
We spent the last few days on Zanzibar at the Maru Maru hotel- if you want to stay in town this is the place to stay! Great in town location- comfortable, great breakfast on rooftop every morning and great service.

The most incredible life-changing natural experience to date.
Our guide (Mussa from Roam Serengeti Safaris) was outstanding and knew the animals and land exceptionally well. We saw everything we went to see and more. We couldn't have been happier with the friendliness of the local people everywhere we went. Everything was inexpensive (even though there is the occasional overcharge for foreigners if you're unprepared) and the food was easily some of the best I've ever had anywhere in the world. I am only a week removed from being in Tanzania and my heart aches to go back ASAP, above some pretty amazing other places I've been (Costa Rica, Brazil, Switzerland). I could not have asked for more in terms of adventure and genuine hospitality. Can't wait to return.

A Great Adventure!
Tanzania is absolutely beautiful. We saw many, many animals while on safari. We booked our trip through African Paradise Safaris. Everything was coordinated perfectly through them. Our guide, Frank was amazing. He taught us so much about the animals, the people of Tanzania, and the country itself. We highly recommend APS. Be sure to request Frank as your guide.

An extra ordinary visit with amazing nature and wildlife!
We are wet happy with our trip. We stayed for 2 nights and everything was perfect. Good camp and food. The different activities were perfect. So peaceful to watch the sunset on the river with hippos and crocodiles just beside. The game drive was amazing and we saw so many species and had some extra ordinary moments when our guide found some more remote places with animals. We saw lions, giraffes, elephants, buffalos, hyena, African Wilddog, hippos and many different types of antiloups.
The walking tour was a good way to feel the nature and the smaller animals.
We are so happy with our journey!

Wonderful landscapes, wonderful accommodations, wonderful animals, wonderful people
We have booked 10 days safari with Uhuru travel & tours ltd. in January.
From the first moment in Tanzania until the departure on Sansibar it was a very interesting, a surprising and a well-being-feel safari for us, always perfect planned. We have visited Lake Manyara with 1 night in Escarpment Luxury Lodge, we think it was the best that we ever had. But also the other accommodations were very nice.
Also the service and the food supply there.
John, the best driver in Serengeti, told us much about the animals and the people in Tanzania. Favour left his humor. We could be watching for example the big five, but more than this, it was so fantastic to be the whole day in those great environments. All the hotels were very nice and exactly fitting. to us. Thanks to Abdallah for the great organization. An other highlight was the Jozani Forest and the Spice tour. We have learned much. Only the Snorkeling tour Blue safari had not enough time for snorkeling. We also felt good in the Manarani Beach Cottages. Such a nice view to the Indian Ocean.

This is the best safari ever!!
This was a perfect safari in one of the most beautiful places on earth, Serengeti and Ngonrongo. Our guide, Moses, was the most knowledgeable, gentle, wonderful safari guide one can wish for. We saw all big five multiple times, at very close distance and enjoy the safari immensely. Thanks a million, Moses, for making possible such an unforgettable experience!!
