Lions, Leopards, and Zebras Oh My! What a Fantastic Experience!
Overall rating
5/5

Woah- the great migration was incredible!

We planned this trip last minute, as in just enough time to get our yellow fever vaccines. The team at Tanzania Roadside provided great service with quick communication, bookings, and modifications to our itinerary (per our request. )They were able to provide a transfer from Kenya to Tanzania and set us up with luxurious accommodations.

The safari itself was more than we expected. In every direction we saw countless wildebeests, zebras, antelope. We were lucky to witness a lioness and her cubs, a few cheetahs and her cubs, and the big 5. Our driver, Edwin, was professional and provided wonderful insight. He also tailored our experience to our personalities.

Our favorite part was camping in the middle of the Serengeti. I never would have expected a functional toilet, shower, and king sized bed in a tent, but that is what we had! When we planned this trip, we were prepared to rough it. Instead, we stayed in luxurious lodges. Our most "roughing it" moment was when we had to make a bathroom pitstop in the middle of all the animals.

We highly recommenced Tanzania Roadside AND going in December. You will see so many animals with fewer safari trucks and have one of the best holiday experiences.

Overall rating

This was a perfect safari in one of the most beautiful places on earth, Serengeti and Ngonrongo. Our guide, Moses, was the most knowledgeable, gentle, wonderful safari guide one can wish for. We saw all big five multiple times, at very close distance and enjoy the safari immensely. Thanks a million, Moses, for making possible such an unforgettable experience!!

We have booked 10 days safari with Uhuru travel & tours ltd. in January.
From the first moment in Tanzania until the departure on Sansibar it was a very interesting, a surprising and a well-being-feel safari for us, always perfect planned. We have visited Lake Manyara with 1 night in Escarpment Luxury Lodge, we think it was the best that we ever had. But also the other accommodations were very nice.
Also the service and the food supply there.
John, the best driver in Serengeti, told us much about the animals and the people in Tanzania. Favour left his humor. We could be watching for example the big five, but more than this, it was so fantastic to be the whole day in those great environments. All the hotels were very nice and exactly fitting. to us. Thanks to Abdallah for the great organization. An other highlight was the Jozani Forest and the Spice tour. We have learned much. Only the Snorkeling tour Blue safari had not enough time for snorkeling. We also felt good in the Manarani Beach Cottages. Such a nice view to the Indian Ocean.

An extra ordinary visit with amazing nature and wildlife!
Overall rating
5/5

We are wet happy with our trip. We stayed for 2 nights and everything was perfect. Good camp and food. The different activities were perfect. So peaceful to watch the sunset on the river with hippos and crocodiles just beside. The game drive was amazing and we saw so many species and had some extra ordinary moments when our guide found some more remote places with animals. We saw lions, giraffes, elephants, buffalos, hyena, African Wilddog, hippos and many different types of antiloups.
The walking tour was a good way to feel the nature and the smaller animals.

We are so happy with our journey!

We booked a 5 day safari in Ruaha National Park with Raja tours. From beginning to end they were responsive and helpful. Nico our guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We stayed at Hill Top lodge, which was breathtaking and the hospitality was amazing. I would definitely recommend.

A Great Adventure!

Tanzania is absolutely beautiful. We saw many, many animals while on safari. We booked our trip through African Paradise Safaris. Everything was coordinated perfectly through them. Our guide, Frank was amazing. He taught us so much about the animals, the people of Tanzania, and the country itself. We highly recommend APS. Be sure to request Frank as your guide.

The most incredible life-changing natural experience to date.
Overall rating
5/5

Our guide (Mussa from Roam Serengeti Safaris) was outstanding and knew the animals and land exceptionally well. We saw everything we went to see and more. We couldn't have been happier with the friendliness of the local people everywhere we went. Everything was inexpensive (even though there is the occasional overcharge for foreigners if you're unprepared) and the food was easily some of the best I've ever had anywhere in the world. I am only a week removed from being in Tanzania and my heart aches to go back ASAP, above some pretty amazing other places I've been (Costa Rica, Brazil, Switzerland). I could not have asked for more in terms of adventure and genuine hospitality. Can't wait to return.

Absolutely awesome family vacation
Overall rating
5/5

Great family vacation enjoying 10 days in Tanzania. Met at the airport by the owner of the safari tour group Fresh Mood Treks to help settle us in for a short stay for Christmas in Dar es Salaam . Then off for for a 5 day safari to Selous and Mikumi reserves. Our Fresh Mood Treks driver/guide, Ezikel was awesome- on time for every aspect of the trip, safe on the roads and he always took the extra time to make sure we were settled in at the camp where we stayed at the end of the day. Both game parks were excellent- Selous with heavier bush cover where we were up close to plenty of giraffe , elephant, baboon, impala and the on Rufiji River ride able to enjoy Hippos and Crocs. Mikumi was more open and filled w/ giraffe, elephants, zebra, baboon, warthog, hyena, eland, hippo, a great family of lions only a few feet from the road. - and some how Ezikel our guide was able to find us a leopard in a tree from a few hundred yards away! Fresh Mood Trek overall a great choice .
We spent the last few days on Zanzibar at the Maru Maru hotel- if you want to stay in town this is the place to stay! Great in town location- comfortable, great breakfast on rooftop every morning and great service.
