The most amazing trip I've ever taken!
I put together an 8 day safari trip in Tanzania with African Scenic Safaris for a group of 20 immediate family and close friends. Our ages ranged from 15 to 77 and everyone had a terrific time. We stayed in a fancy lodge and many safari camps in tents. All accommodations were comfortable and enjoyable. We were astonished at how many animals we saw in a day - and how many totally ignored our vans. They are so used to tourists coming through, they just go about their business. We had lions take a nap in the shade of our vehicles. Herds of hundreds of zebra, thousands of wildebeasts who had to get out of our way as we passed through. Elephant moms with tiny babies taking a bath in the river near the road. Hyenas in a mud puddle in the road cooling off who reluctantly got up as we came through. Cheetahs scanning for game a few yards from the road. A giraffe who stood in the center of the road staring us down for over 10 minutes. The whole trip was comparable in cost to a European river trip. Camps were well sprayed, so we didn't have any problem with mosquitoes or flies. You can't walk around on your own, so very little exercise. The roads through the parks are unpaved and quite rough, so you have to be able to bounce around quite a bit all day every day. We especially enjoyed a visit to a tribal Masaai village and an opportunity to meet the people there and go in their homes. All guides/drivers in Tanzania are required to attend 3 years of college to get a degree in wildlife and be certified by the government. So you are guaranteed you will have knowledgeable guides from any company. Take your children - your grandchildren for al trip of a lifetime!

The Serengeti is stunning, do not miss.
I did a 4 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater national parks. Each were great. They complimented each other with their variety of plants, animals and terrain.

What a beautiful country!
We saw a lot of different landscapes an cultures. When you arrive inArusha you find a town with a lot of modern elements. Few minutes later you see Maassai with their cows and goats nearby the road.and some time after this you see giraffes and antilopes and all the animals that you never think to see…
Our next station Zanzibar offers muslimic cultur and such a lot of wonderful experiences…
So we can say Tanzania is a country with a lot of different adventures and expiriences and so many very friendly people. We feeled save every time and find many new friends at this there.

Beautiful place with lovely people
We loved the Serengeti. Just where there for 2 days but saw a lot of animals very close by. A 4 day safari would have been even better.
Don’t expect to see the rhino, though. Chances are below 5%.
And check the wildbeast migration map first, before you book a lodge.
The Melia Lodge was fantastic, though.

Amazing nature and Wildlife
We spend an amazing 3 days tant safari with Crater Explorer. We did Serengeti and Ngorondoro. The views are breath taking!!! We saw all the big five several times and from really near! Frederic our guide had eagle eyes to spot them, and was really great. Funny & passionate.
Our cook renamed Chief by us, really take carte of us and the food was delicious.
We met also really Nice people « pôle pole »
If you havé Time only for one Park : choose Ngorondoro the views and animals are everywhere. Also you will see lit of Massai. So beautiful. We choose not to do their village but they are with their cattle all around Ngorondoro. We were in tents ( confortable!) and saw amazing sun set and sunrise.
I raté only 4 cause bad luke my bag was grabbed in Arusha by guys in moto ( this can happen everywhere of course) but we rented a car in zanzibar and each Time we took it police attested us to ask for money under any pretext. So just be vigilant!
Conclusion : Tanzania is amazing we hightly recommand to go for safari.

Wonderful experience - so many animals and a beautiful green nature.
We were really surprised how many animals we have seen - rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, lions, hippos, elephants, giraffes,...
The Nationalparks were beautiful and each one was different. The Lodges and camps were great and in the middle of nature. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming.
