Spectacular
Saw the big five and so much more. Our guide was outstanding. I accidentally slipped and suffered a severe injury, the Tanzanian people were the most kind, helpful and compassionate you could imagine. I received excellent medical care. Highly recommend.

A must do experience to feel connected to Nature.
We made a 6 day safari (Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) followed by some time in Zanzibar.
Would we repeat it, we would´nt skip any of these places. Amazing wildlife. We could even catch a leopard with a prey, which is rare in daytime. Impressive the wildbeasts migrating along Serengeti savana. Ngorongoro is astonishing, a true sanctuary. We were fortunate to have Andrew as a guide, no efforts spared to fullfill our aims. Andrew was very resourceful when we had problems with the car.
We must emphasize the good quality of the lodges (Nsya Lodge, Eileens Trees and Ngoromgoro Rhino Lodge) and the unforgetful tented lodges (Osupuko and Tortilis). In everyone of them sympathy and quality and the food above our expectations.
In Zanzibar, wandering Stone Town, the harbour, the market, a trip to Prisoner´s Island, was a perfect end to our journey.

Amazing guide found all the animals we could have hoped for and more.
It surpassed our expectations. We had an excellent guide and were extremely lucky to see so many and such variety of beautiful animals.

Exceptionnaly beautiful, exceptionnaly expensive
We spent 8D/7N across 4 parks (Taranguire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Manyara), it's really worth spending as much time as you can in parks, the raw nature is absolutely amazing.
I was really surprized about the costs, it's true the places in the world where you can see the same things are limited but still, $6000 for two, for a lower-scale luxury safari.
Our car had some problems in the frist days, apparently, that happens regardless of the provider: the difference between the low cost and high standards companies is the time you will spend fixing that. For us it just took few minutes. but the price, I was expecting a spotless car, well no, it doesn't work like that :-/.
Our guide was fluent in english, absolutely crazy spotting abilities - while driving -, extensive knowledge of fauna and flora, add to that a really nice, friendly and fun person. Ask for Abraham, he is working for Uhuru Travel & Tours. Remember you will spend 90% of the time in the car, with your guide, if his english is bad or something else is wrong, this might ruin your trip.

Amazing viewing of iconic wildlife up close; arranged one day tour on short notice
I was in Dar Es Saalam on business, and had one day for a safari. Gecko Adventures was able to accommodate me on short notice with a private one day tour at a reasonable price. I was able to see a large amount of wildlife at Mikumi National Park. My guide was familiar with the park, animal behaviors, and provided many entertaining and educational anecdotes. The ability to get close look at so many large iconic animals was amazing.

FABULOUS EXPERIENCE
We were a group of 8 people who study in Canada. We did five days camping safari. We did tarangire, Manyara, and Ngorongoro National Park. We did it with Rondo Dwarf Safari. The planning was well arranged. We had our chef called John who cooked for us a wonderful food with traditional varieties foods. Also our guide Dominic much respect to him because we disturb him allot but he was passion enough, he knows allot of things concerning wildlife and vegetation's, every vegetation which we asked him he tell us in detail. We expect to come back next year December 2018 and we will book with Rondo Dwarf you real know the value of customer satisfactions.

Everything in Tanzania was great, down from the people to the wildlife.
The wife and I went on our honeymoon and it was a wonderful experience. Everything was great. We had so much fun and got lots of crazy stories and experiences from it. The safari is a must for any nature lover or photographer. The country is very beautiful. The people were my favorite part however as they were really friendly and treated us like royalty. We went with Shadows of Africa and they delivered on everything they said they would. Only complaint was guide could have told us more stories and the company didn't inform us it was the dry season. There's so much to see in Tanzania.

Tanzania is beautiful; I would never book with Safarihub ever again though
My review of Tanzania is 5 stars. The country is wonderful, friendly, full of wildlife. This is the second time I've been to the various parks on the Northern Circuit. I love that they each have their own unique and stunning scenery. Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater and Tarangire are all beautiful. Unfortunately, much of my positive view is formed by my previous experiences of the country as the recent safari I went on was an absolutely horrific experience despite the beautiful scenery. (Avoid Safarihub at all costs).
Tanzania though (aka 'friendly Kenya') is definitely worth visiting - and I'd recommend a trip to Zanzibar as well as the safari circuit if you can afford it, particularly if you're interested in snorkeling/scuba.
