My family and I had an amazing safari trip in Tanzania for 20 days, starting in Arusha and ending in Moshi with a magnificent view of Mt Kilimanjaro to finish the holiday off.
We did 6 national parks and 18 game drives with our expert driver, Stewart from Kilislopes Safari & Tours. We saw leopard, cheetah, servile, lots of lions and all of the rest of the wonderful animals and many birds. The trip was everything we dreamed of. The bush camps were outstanding and the lodges beautiful. One won't be disappointed visiting Tanzania with so much to offer.

An extraordinary experience
We loved the parks in Tanzania. Lake Manyara is denser forest, so it is harder to see animals, but if you meet them they walk very close to you. Ngorongoro has a special character, being inside that crater full of animals is unique. Tarangire is beautiful, the environment that one, or at least we, expected from the safari, the savannah. I would recommend everyone to visit Tanzania and the tour operator Kibi Mawenzi who organised everything for us was impeccable when we were there.

Beautiful location
We went to Nyerere wildlife park and it was beautiful with some amazing sites and incredible animals to see. Local culture was amazing and people were generally very friendly. The tour operator was very good too (Daigle Tours). However, for how much we are paying, I do not believe that enough is going to the locals who do the activities. When speaking to some of the locals, they are reliant on tips from travellers rather than being fairly paid by the tour operator for their services. This should be looked into. It does not mean the prices for tours go up, it means the tour gives a bigger share to the locals.

Excellente safari in Tanzania
We had a really interesting safari. Nine days immersed in nature in direct contact with animals thanks to the assistance of a truly exceptional guide. Charles was always very helpful and made us get to know and experience the parks in a very professional way. Thanks to him and the perfect organization of Hotsun Safari we returned to Italy with the memory of an unforgettable experience and also, as photography lovers, rich in many beautiful images.

3 day Safari
We had a very memorable, fun and amazing 3 day safari. We went with Furaha and our tour guide Emmanuel was fantastic. He had great knowledge and was able to spot animals we would never have seen and then get into a position in the the jeep for the best view. We visited Tarangire National Park, Norogoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. All three areas were distinctively different. I loved seeing how the animals interacted with each other in their natural environment, especially the elephants, lions and Ostriches. Furaha were fantastic throughout. Phil would reply to our emails within minutes whilst planning our trip. I would definitely recommend Furaha, Emmanuel and the 3 day safari experience!

wonderful
First of all, people are very welcoming, warm and nice.
Second, the nature is amazing and very various, from the wonderful beaches of Zanzibar to the lush vegetation of Kilimanjaro. Also, wildlife is well preserved and masai culture in very interesting.
Hope we'll return in Tanzania!

Rare opportunity to see magnificent animals in the wild!
Vervet Safari Tours helped us see an amazing variety of landscapes, cultures, and wildlife. Matthew knew where to look for animals and could drive and sight them at the same time. We got up close to lions, cheetas, leopards, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, a great variety of antelopes, and more. We visited a Masai village, a cultural festival, and a women's cooperative engaged in sustainable farming and a number of community-sustaining activities.

A very diverse country in both geography and experiences
I spent 4 days in Zanzibar which is more of tourist type of destination. The beaches and water were lovely. Stone Town was unique.
I also did a 4 day Safari with World Tours and Safaris Tanzania. They were 5 star from beginning to end. Great guide, great lodging, everything was taken care of expertly. Rickson Richard the manager took care of every detail.
I also did a homestay in Iringa Tanzania in the everyday Tanzania. The hospitality of the people was amazing. Life is very different than the USA. I came away with a new appreciation of our difference and the ease of our lives compared to those in Tanzania.

Our safari was great. We really liked Ngorongoro and the Serengeti Nationalpark. We saw 4 of the big 5 and overall a lot of animals and beautiful nature. Thanks a lot. :)
