Amazing Experience!
Overall rating
4/5

Everything was amazing.

Safari - I was expecting more wildlife for 4 days. Hope to have a new opportunity to do a safari in another country to compare it.
Landscapes/beach - amazing. Good weather, views, water temperature and visibility.
People - very friendly. Negotiate on markets, not agressive on selling. Never felt insecure and everyone likes to talk with you (very curious).

Best experience of my life
Overall rating
5/5

Tanzania is the place. For many years I dreamed about a Safari in Serengeti and finally I had the opportunity to do it. Best experience in my life so far, the expectations were high and it went better than that. I traveled alone and I always felt safe and all the people were kind to me. I did the 5 day Safari at Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It's magical, you should see by yourself, if you respect the nature, nature will give good memories to you.
Special thanks to Barthoo, I booked the safari with him and he answered all my questions and take care of transportation from the airport etc.
Simon was the best guide ever, he is the genuine kind of guy, with a big sense of humour and technically very strong at driving and explain to you all your doubts even when you think you have crazy questions.
About the food? don't bother, just ask for chef Ndula to be your cooker and you will have the best meals in the middle of the Tanzania savana.
Wakanda Safari Tours Forever!

An unspoiled beautiful destination which didn't disappoint!
Overall rating
5/5

We had a 3 day (2 night) safari which took in the Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater & Lake Manyara.

All logistics including flights & transfers were extremely well thought through, planned, arranged & executed perfectly.

All 3 locations had something different to offer; we were fortunate to see, close up, 4 of the 'big' five, only missing out on Leopards!

The close proximity of the animals was what made this so special.

In addition we observed many different birds, Wart Hogs, Hyena, Zebra, Giraffe, Impala, various breeds of monkey, Hippos, Gazelle & too many more to mention!

At every turn there was something which took your breath away!

The guide, Manfred, was amazing. His knowledge was so impressive, his kindness & humor in addition to his driving ability made us feel included, engaged & safe at all times.

At night our accommodation, Jungle Pearl, was quirky, comfortable & relaxing. The swimming pool being a very welcome way to unwind at the end of a long day in the jeep.

We were served up fabulous, high quality traditional Tanzanian food & drinks & made us feel really at home in every respect, nothing was too much trouble for our hosts.

The breakfasts set us up for the day ahead! Every dietary requirement was catered for without exception.

Overall, everything was as we hoped it would be, in fact it far exceeded our expectations!

We couldn't recommend the experience more highly, thank YOU!

5/5

We did a five day safari with Easy Tours with our guide Hubert. We could not have asked for more and it was beyond expectations. We saw a vast variety or birds and animals and for the "twitchers" that are reading our guide had excellent knowledge of birds. We saw lions, cheetahs and leopard on every day in the serengetti and the communication between guides telling each other where everything is is so great. We found this time of the year not so crowded and certainly was nice to be just surrounded by few trucks not more then 10 at any time. We didn't do the Masai Mara village tour as ethically this doesn't sit well with us but others that we heard did it loved it.

I can't reccomend Tanzania enough. Vivian at Easy Tours was excellent at organising our tour and answered all our questions and was super helpful and responsive. Small tour group with big care.

5/5

I completed a 3 day safari following a trip to Mafia and enjoyed every minute of our trip. The tour driver was knowledgeable and made the trip more enjoyable. Whilst the weather on the drive to and from Dar to Nyerere National Park was rainy, that didn't take away from the beauty of the country and the wildlife we were able to see on our boat and walking safaris. The game drive round Nyerere was incredible, we were lucky to see a whole host of wildlife including giraffes, elephants, zebra and hippos.
The lodge we stayed in was beautiful and the staff were helpful.
Tanzania is a beautiful country with such a vast range of wildlife encounters available

This was our first time on Safari and in Tanzania. From the start, everyone we met was welcoming and happy that we were visiting their country. We had arranged a safari through Safari by Z and had the wonderful Fadhili as our guide/driver. We stayed 8 days and visited Tarangire , Lake Manyara but we were pleased that we left the best to last, Serengeti . On our way back we went to Ngorongora Crater which was amazing. We were so lucky to see so many different animals on our trips (elephants, zebra, cheetah. lions etc etc). The list just goes on & on (hate to think how many 100's of photos we took !) and this was completely down to the knowledge of our guide, Fadhili Our days were filled with meeting friendly local people, beautiful scenery, wonderful animals, terrible roads (thank goodness that Fadhili drove us slowly!). Wonderful to see the Maasai people, looking after their cows/goats/donkeys as we drove through the Parks. We never failed to be surprised and thrilled about how diverse the area was, surely making Tanzania a top destination to go to. Ballooning over the Serengeti was superb, very well organised and a must, even though it isn't cheap!. We went slightly out of season which worked in our favour, the Parks weren't too busy. Your guide and the Safari company you choose, is so important because it is them that makes sure you get to see the best of Tanzania and their Parks. All in all, a fabulous holiday, it exceeded our expectations and cannot be recommended highly enough as a must go to destination. Visit Tanzania, go on safari, immerse yourself in their culture, you won't be disappointed.
