Wonderful holiday
We had a perfect holiday in Tanzania. Started with 2 days Stone Town (Zanzibar) then headed for a safari to Serengeti and Ngororo, followed by a beach holiday in Zanzibar. The wildlife was extraordinary, the beach was beautiful, the people were so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a perfect family holiday.

Beautiful destination, culture and people surrounded by spectacular wildlife.
Fantastic time with Bujo tours who created real memories for our family in Tanzania. We were a family of 5 (including 3 teenagers 13 to 15) travelling from London in October 2024. We had 3 days including River, Game Drive and Walking and couldn’t have asked for a better experience in a beautiful country full of fantastic people. We saw everything Elephants, Lions, Zebra, Hippo, Impala, Hyenas, Hogs and so many more animals and Birds, too many to list. The weather was fantastic high 20s everyday. Go and enjoy. Thanks guys.

Amazing to see so many different animals in the wild and to experience the beautiful scenery.
Our 8 day tour in Tanzania was absolutely wonderful! Great seeing many different animals in the wild and the scenery was incredible. Our tour guide was very careful with his driving when we went high and around some bends. I do not like heights but I was comfortable with his driving. The Arusha Farm House is a beautiful place to stay, with a swimming pool, lovely surroundings and very good food.

Awestruck
I cannot rave enough about my four day safari in Tanzania. My husband and I visited Serengeti National Park as well as Ngorongoro Crater in September. We booked the safari with Habari Adventures (also hiked Mount Kilimanjaro with the same tour company) and cannot say enough good things about both the safari and Habari. The guide was very knowledgeable about the animals as well as respectful by keeping enough distance so as not to disturb. The vast size of the parks and the number of animals we were able to view is indescribable. We were lucky to see the big five (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and African buffalo) along with numerous species of both animals and birds.
We stayed at two lodges within the parks and both facilities were amazing. All of the staff were warm and welcoming! I also liked both lodges were small and blended with the environment Food and atmosphere also great.
As a whole, I loved Tanzanian and would really love to return to explore more areas of the country.

A fascinating and friendly country with all you could want from a safari holiday.
We chose Tanzania because ‘everyone’ it seems goes to South Africa or Kenya yet there was reputed to be excellent chances of seeing the 'big five’ in this less visited country. I also consider where I go politically [where I spend my money] and whilst no government pleases everyone, Tanzania appears to be heading in a good direction. Our first visit to ‘Africa Proper’ did not disappoint in any way. We met so many friendly people - even those clearly relying on selling their goods to tourists were friendly whether or not we bought anything. Staff at lodges and resorts were wonderful. Food everywhere was excellent. For the reasons listed above we also wanted to book with a company based in the country so all our money goes there. Through Safari Bookings we found a tour by Safari Soles which was adjusted to suit our requirements - with a few days to visit Zanzibar. I could not praise Safari Soles more highly. Communication beforehand, nice mid-range accommodation a friendly guide with an encyclopaedic knowledge of all the fauna and flora and a proximity to most of the animals that was well beyond our expectations with perfect logistics throughout. We particularly enjoyed our ‘luxury’ picnic lunches with hot food, wine and proper plates etc. while many other groups were unpacking their cardboard packed lunches. And all for less money than half the time with a tour group based in the West - and ours was a ‘private’ tour. For ‘mid-range’ accommodation we were very happy; huge beds, plenty of space, nice en-suite facilities and a balcony in all the lodges and camps. More money spent on this would have been unnecessary since they were just overnight stays after long days. I’d advise if you have more money to spend - stay longer! I would also add that Tanzania is clearly a country of talent and enterprise. Souvenir items were more expensive than anticipated - although bargaining is the name of the game. But there is considerable artistry and with dollars to spend, one can purchase some beautiful things. We are recommending Tanzania to all our friends that express an interest in a safari and recommending Safari Soles as their tour company.

The wildlife is spectacular
I did a safari across the Serengetti. The accommodations and food was first rate and I saw some amazing animals including 2 black Rhinos. This is a tour that everyone should take in their lifetime

Once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommended.
2 family travelling together - kids in school holidays. Has the perfect experience.
Saw the big 5 and the wildebeest river crossing.
Lion king adventures picked a is from airport and dropped us back for our flight - everything in-between was taken care of. Luxurious accommodation even in the middle of Serengeti. They were flexible to accomodate our needs.
Our guides were excellent. Would ask for them again

Amazon country, well organized and stunning safari. safari. Zanzibar is very beautiful as well.
The safari trip was great and the travel to Zanzibar as well. Everxthing went well and we really enjoyed the trip. The people are very friendly. The only disadvantage is the ongoing talking on every beach in Zanzibar in order to sell stuff, trips etc.

Cradle of life, kind people, eager to help, breathtaking scenery, amazing mountains
Tanzania is a gem of the central africa. Incredible scenery, vast savana plains, dense rainforests, huge mountains, friendly and happy people, safe place to visit the mainland and learn about the history of the place from the locals. Avoid, all-inclusive hotels and take a dive with the local vibe, travelling with a car and staying in the local areas of the cities. This will make you get a grip of the native vibe...
But the most important thing is to relax and expect the unexpected...everything here lives on pole-pole rhythm and at the end of the day, the point is: Hakuna Matata! Don't worry too much, and everything's gonna be alright!
Kwaheri Tanzania!
