I have dreamed about going on safari since I was a child and it was everything I dreamed of!
This trip for my daughter and me was truly amazing. The wildlife, the scenery and the whole Tanzanian experience was a trip off a lifetime. The Tanzanian people are very friendly and helpful. We were lucky to witness the migrating wildebeest river crossing, the amazing cats, elephants giraffes, zebras, rhinos and many more species. The tented camps allowed us to fall asleep to the sounds of hippos and lions in the nighttime background. We became friends with our private driver, Daudi Majengo, who had an uncanny ability to locate the animals we wanted to see. The Tanzanian government has done a great job preventing poaching and protecting these amazing animals. After our safari we flew to Zanzibar to tour Stone Town and Zanzibar's beautiful beaches, a great way to end a tremendous expedition.

Beautiful country
We took the 4 day selous game reserve safari and could not have been more pleased! Our guide Appolo was fantastic!! All of the accommodations were wonderful and the food was great!! The staff at all the lodges went out of their way to make sure you were taken care of!! We were able to see all kinds of wildlife! (Got within 10 ft of a pair of lions)!! We were never rushed and our guide did all he could to get us good pictures. The weather was perfect!! From the first email to get things started till we were dropped back off at our hotel everyone was helpful and the experience was great!!! I would not hesitate to take this safari again!!

Absolutely amazing
First of all we would like to thank our guide and chef, Livingston and Sweetbart, for been a great guide and a great chef. Second we were amazed by the nature and wildlife in Tanzania. We saw four of the great five, but we were truly amazed by the magnificent wildlife that Tanzania has to offer.
A big shout out to Nothern Circuit Adventure, and Mike, for arranging a great safari trip for us. Thanks!

Amazing nature and wildlife
My Tanzania trip was amazing! First I did a safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with loads of wildlife right next to the jeep.
Afterwards I did the Kilimanjaro Trek all the way to the summit! A really big challenge, but so much worth it! The scenery on the way to the top was breathtaking!
The people are nice and friendly and they really want to teach you the Swahili language, which I thought was great! Arusha was a little too much for me with street sellers etc. I liked Moshi better, and in Moshi you also have that stunning view of the beautiful Kilimanjaro!

A little disappointing.
The weather was very nice. Wildlife not as abundant as I expected but then it was the dry season. MY accommodations were NOT what I paid to have---I paid for a mid-range tented lodge and ended up in a tent on the ground and shorted one day stay in the Serengeti. MY agent took the money I paid (in advance) and did not make any hotel arrangements, no one day hike on Kilimanjaro nor did he provide any arrangements for the 2 day stay in Kenya for Amboseli National Park or the Park fees in Tanzania National Parks (3). This is at least $1,000 loss and time wasted. I actually had to spend a day filing a police report on [email protected] Nagol. This site needs to be shut down to prevent this scum from hurting other travelers and ruining the safari business in Tanzania. Most of the people were extremely nice in trying to help sort all of this out for me and make sure I saw what I came to see. I was in a group of 6 but it was a little stressful as the guide/driver never knew what to do with me. Please DO NOT advertise for this site. He is a crook

The best you can get from safari tour in Tanzania !!!
June is the beginning of the high season where we can enjoy the game drives without encountering too many tourist while it is too early for the big migration. Overall, the weather was pretty nice. It rained for just one day with slightly cool temperature though the sunlight could be a bit strong at mid day. Of course we were excited when we travelled to Serengeti and witnessed how vast it is. Serengeti was in idylic setting where the grasses and the bushes were golden and greenish contrasted with either vibrantly blue or stormy sky. So, apart from taking photo of wild animals, it is fascinating for landscape photography as well.
We were surprised that the accomodations were decent and comfortable with quality of food and other services going beyond expectation. It was such a good feeling when you can still take a hot shower in the middle of no where in Serengeti hearing the howling hyenas at the same time. The portion for lunch box is quite big and could be dull when you have them for the seventh straight days. The quality of the lunch box is normally mediocre with a lot of carbs. As for the safari vehicle was of good condition, clean and safe. We made a right decision to travel in a group of 4 people having other 2 seats available for putting our bags and photography equipment.
What we like most about this trip is our guide, Nickson, from Savannah Explorers. We appreciate his kindness, politeness and extensive knowledge of the wildlife. He spoke English well and took into account what we needed during the trip. He was flexible while managed to control the daily schedules, and he did not hesitate to request us to do him a favor by leaving early, like 6 a.m., so that we would not miss anything like the scenic sunrise or the only black rhino we encountered during our last game drive in Ngorongoro Crater. Of course, we saw all of the African Big 5. We believe that we got almost every highlight during the trip, so we couldn't be any happier ticking off our bucket list. As we had a really great time in Tanzania, we will definitely recommend Nickson and Savannah Exploreres to our Thai friends.

We had a blast
From the minute my family and I stepped foot in Tanzania we were greeted with smiles from the immigration officials and the smiles never stopped from everyone we met until our departure.
We were lucky that we picked this time of year to visit as the rainy season just ended, the whole place was green and the weather was just perfect.
Our tour operator "Amos" made all the arrangements for us to be picked up from the airport by our amazing guide "Thomas", transferred to Selous game reserve, lodge arrangements and the safari trips in Selous.
The least I could say about the lodge is that it was a beautiful stay in well equipped cabins nested in the forest, most helpful and friendly staff, freshly prepared meals to our taste with attention to every need we had. And most of all we felt very safe.
We lost track of time during the following 3 days where we took the river boat ride, game reserve drive and the guided forest walk.
It was the most amazing experience seeing all kinds of animals in their natural habitat.. Elephants, Giraffes, Wildebeests, Impalas, Hippos, Crocodiles, Zebras, and a whole bunch of animals that I cannot even name.
Definitely a trip to repeat.
