The beautiful cradle of humanity
Overall rating
5/5

Tanzania was a fantastic experience - the safari on the Serengeti, in Ngorongoro Crater and by Lake Manyara. The people we met were friendly and accommodating, and with very good reason proud of their country. We have visited both Zanzibar and Arusha/Serengeti, and we will surely come back for more.

My recent trip to Tanzania was a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. I started with a thrilling safari in Serengeti National Park and Gorongoro where I was immediately awed by the vast landscapes and abundant wildlife. The highlight was witnessing the Great Migration—herds of wildebeest and zebras crossing the plains. Throughout the safari, I saw the Big Five, including lions lounging in the shade and a cheetah hunting. Our knowledgeable guide made the experience even more special, offering insights into the animals and ecosystem.

After the excitement of the safari, I headed to Zanzibar for some much-needed downtime. The island’s beaches are paradise—soft, white sands and crystal-clear waters. I stayed in a beautiful resort in Pwani, where I could relax, swim, and enjoy delicious seafood. Stone Town was a fascinating cultural experience, with its historic architecture and vibrant markets. I also took a spice tour, learning about Zanzibar’s rich history and spice cultivation.

This trip to Tanzania was unforgettable. Serengeti offered an exhilarating safari, and Zanzibar provided the perfect beach escape. Whether you're into wildlife adventures or simply relaxing by the ocean, Tanzania has it all. Highly recommended!

Tanzania was amazing start to finish. The people were friendly, it was easy to travel into and out of the country. I felt really safe, although I was with my tour operator the entire time. The food was great and most fruits/vegetables are locally grown. And of course the safaris were incredible. We toured Tarangaire, Ngoro Ngoro and the Serengeti. All parks had unique aspects. We saw many wild cats, including 2 sitings of cheetahs and a couple of cheetah cubs, a leopard who crossed our path, many lions, the wildebeest migration, herds of elephants ...etc. Some other highlights include the Ngoro Ngoro crater and the Olduvai Gorge.

Incredible safari experience from Zanzibar to Tanzania
Overall rating
5/5

We had an incredible honeymoon safari experience in Tanzania! Despite the short rainy season at the end of November, we had almost only sunshine and just a few rain showers. A special highlight was our driver Simon, whose expertise and kindness made the journey unforgettable. Throughout the journey, we always felt safe in the vehicle. Additionally, Rehema, our contact person before and during the trip, provided outstanding support and ensured everything ran smoothly. The accommodations were perfectly chosen and offering great comfort. We also want to mention the freshly prepared lunches during our breaks – a wonderful touch compared to the typical packed lunches offered by other providers. Highly recommended!

We have seen all animals, big five of course.
If you overnight in Serengeti, go for Kon Tiki Serengenti tented camp. Wildlife at your doorstep.

My wife and I did a 6 day safari in mid November. We saw lots of wildlife in their natural habitat, and enjoyed the beauty of the Serengeti, with all it had to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to, not just about wildlife, but also about the Tanzanian culture and way of life.
WE would recommend Tanzania to anyone who is looking for a good African wildlife safari!

An amazing adventure into the wild plains of the Serengeti and National Wildlife Parks. Such a wide range of animals in their natural habitat with amazing scenic views as far as the eye can see.

Nature in the best way possible.
Overall rating
5/5

We had a 6 day safari. We went to Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti National park. First 2 mentioned are smaller parks that was for us just some hours driving in it. Its great to get to know how a gamedrive works. And to see animals.
Ngorongoro Crater is amazing. But also feel like a bit predictable. As its a "small" space were so much wild life is. So that it makes it easier to see the animals that are there. Doesnt make it less cool. But for me Serengeti was the best park. Its very big and with the experienced driver from Meru Slopes "Nuru" we did different parts of the park. He knew where a lot of animals could be find. Still a lot of looking to see if you can see them as some of them are well hidden. But with his perfect sight we saw a lot, the big 5 almost twice besides the Leopard. It was a great experience.
We went in low season Half November. The campsite "Ngiri" in Serengeti was the first night just us (made us a bit scared) because there is no fence or something. So all animals can walk in. But we managed. The second night were some more people. I can imagine in High season its a lot less clean but still an amazing experience.
Camp Simba on the rim of Ngorongoro crater was better organised and cleaner. Also there were more people sleeping that night. Both camls animals came at night padt our tent.
The experience was one to never ever forget. Meru Slopes made it perfect.
