7-day tanzania wildlife safari
My trip started from Tarangire National Park, and ended at Serengeti National Park. Everything went well until the day before my trip ended. We had a flat tire and the our truck was not equipped with proper tools to change a spare tire. So we got help from other guides. The spare tire was not in a good shape. So the next day (last day of our trip) we had another flat ; which turned out to be the spare tire. Now we don't have any spare tire . So I felt unsafe to continue on our game drive for the rest of the day. Not only that, while entering the Serengeti, the fuel tank strap broke thus hanging on one strap all the way. That slowed us down too.
I believe for any company the vehicles should be double checked for basic things such as proper inflation in tires, spare tires in good condition, overall health of the engine , check all the fluids, etc. And last but not the least , tools to change spare tires that are in working order.

I love zebras
the safari is preserved in very good shape. everybody respect the nature. weather was good during our visit. everything is good, except for the taxi drivers, who always deceive travelers for extra money, which is a big turn off.

Incredible opportunity to view African animals up close.
I chose a safari with Wildlands Safaris, which I selected after viewing the options available through Safari Bookings. Our safari was excellent! I couldn't believe how close we got to those amazing wild animals. The guide did everything he could to make sure we saw everything we possibly could. We couldn't have asked for better accommodation, food and service along the way. I would highly recommend this company.
Beautiful place
The parks are great here. Loads of lions around. Friendly people. Good times.
We loved it
Very nice camp, real Safari feeling, very nice staff. Very reliable service, nice to be off the beaten track.

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
