Big Five High Five
First off all excellent experience with safaribookings site for entire tour booking.
I traveled SOLO from Mumbai to Arusha. Before reaching Aursha I spent few hours in Dar Es Salam to visit city. I took airport registered taxi to visit city.
Then I joined the group for 5 days Safari in Arusha. National Parks included Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti and NGoronGoro.. Each park has its own beauty and different games. Weather was excellent during our Safari.. Ngorongoro was cold compare to other parks. I stayed one night in Seronera Public camp site and one night in Simba camp.. Superb experience of camping. In all my journey I felt safe with the tour guide and within stay.
Food prepared was really delicious. We spotted all big five and lot of other animals and birds.
It was a life time experience for me. Thank you.

Green scenery, colorful wildlife. Great experience to remember!
We have visited two different spots for safari (Ngorongoro and Tarangire) and we loved them both. The Ngorongoro crater was very different experience than any other safari. The wildlife, atmosphere and calmness is magic. We have used Msangai Adventure Ltd for our tour and only the best recommendations we may give.

First Safari in my life was very good
We were in Tarangire, Ngorongoro crater and Lake Manyara. We enjoyed all. Our tour guider and the driver were really skilfull, friendly and helpful. They did a professional work for us! The foods were very good, healthy and taste, and in the camp we saw an wonderful dancing and fire-eater acrobatic show from the staff.
The igloo where we slept was warm and comfortable with a doublesized bed. The safety was very good but this is Africa so 1 night I met an scorpion when I walked to the toilet so I suggest everyone to use smartphone light in the camp at night!

Fantastic experience and unforgettable!
Went with Colours of Africa on a special private trip which started in Arusha. From there we went to the Serengeti and camped there for one night and saw two of the big one. It was a bit airy to know that the eyes we saw in the night at the camping place were hyenas! From there we went and camped on the Ngorogoro crater edge saw Elephants next to the campsite. Next day we went to the crater and what a feast seeing Lion family, antilopes, hyenas swimming, buffalos, hippo family and etc etc so many animal and birds! In the afterthought we should maybe had at least two extra days in these two places! But we got lucky and saw so many of the native animals in these places birds, mammals, reptiles and insects. From there we went to Arusha again and stayed one night there! Visited a Massai village on the way to Arusha and I would recommend that everybody should visit one! From Arusha we went to Materuni village and the highlight was getting coffee made in front of us i.e. from bean to cup and getting a meal served by local people.
From Arusha we went to Kigoma to visit Gombe national park! It is a privilege to be allowed to stay at the same place and Jane Godall did her studies on the chimpanzees! Saw a lot of them and baboons and it is strange to have them walking only arms length from you! We stayed there for 2 nights and what a experience!
From there we went to Zanzibar and stayed 3 days!
Got lot of pictures i.e. more than 4000!
The Guides and chefs were exceptional! Highly recommendable company!

Beauty, fun and education, all in one
We spent 8 days in Tanzania (3 days in mainland and 5 days on the island of Zanzibar). It was phenomenal to say the least. We are from the US so the flight was pretty lengthy but well worth the cultural exposure, sights and amazing treatment from all of the locals (tour guides and others). Silly as it is, even the animals seem to welcome you into their country. I did a separate review for my Safari experience with Yona and Justine. The Safari was my favorite experience. Learning about the Maasai Tribe, the crops and spices, their artistry, the food was all so intriguing. Zanzibar was a beautiful island with beautiful turquoise water. I never thought East Africa was a popular tourist area but Tanzania is a hidden gem (at least to a lot of US Americans who mostly travel to South Africa). I am spreading the word. Tanzania was my absolute favorite vacation spot to date.

Amassing
Best money ever spent :)
My first safari so I can't compare, but it was amassing.
Done Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater & south Serengeti (Ndutu). One better the the other, best to have this order.
Everything green... Late January - February is a good time to visit.

Breathtaking
It was my first going to Tanzania but I can confidently say that if you are interested in a good Safari experience, it will be one of the best trips you could wish for, I felt immensely free multiple times and constantly blessed to be amid such wildlife.

An amazing country with such friendly people
Tanzania is a huge country with fantastic game parks, different cultures and amazing people. Revisiting Tanzania after 55 years did not disappoint, the people were so friendly and welcoming, it was like coming home.
Although there were a lot of changes and new buildings, a lot of the old Tanzania was still present. There was nothing pretentious about the tours and safari operators we dealt with. I will be back!

Best safari experience, friendly people, amazing food and scenery
We have fallen in love with Tanzania! We booked the 5 day mid range Safari (ended up doing 4 days due to arriving a day late due to flight delays) with cross to Africa safaris/suricata safari- then a 4 day extension in Zanzibar. Firstly, the people are beyond friendly and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble! You are well looked after as a tourist as the tourism industry is valued. Safety was not something we even gave a thought to whilst in Tanzania.
Our driver was great and knowledgable. We ended up seeing all of the Big 5 and more. The way the tour operators and drivers work together meant we not only saw everything but as a group in the bush you feel safe, that should you run into any trouble there are other groups around.
The fresh hot food our chef made on our safari was a pleasant surprise on our picnics! And the lodges we stayed in were in the middle of the wildlife but still luxurious (just what we wanted).
The organisation of everything was second to none!
And no trip to Tanzania would be complete without witnessing the paradise on earth that is the island of Zanzibar! Beautiful beaches, amazing seafood, and snorkelling to die for.
As they say ‘you leave your heart in Africa’ we definitely did after this trip and will be returning!
