First-class experience, everything we could have wanted in a safari!
Our safari in Tanzania was excellent. E-Trip made the experience enjoyable with great management and organisation of our 8 day trip. The wildlife and scenery in Tanzania speaks for itself, it is absolutely stunning, we saw everything from herds of elephant, leopard, black rhino (7 in one morning!), cheetahs on a hunt and lions feasting on a zebra. Through all of these, our guide gave us thorough information and made the trip run smoothly. The camps which we stayed were great, Lemala camps provide a luxury camping option whilst still remaining wild at the same time. I would highly recommend E-Trip to anyone looking to safari in Tanzania!

Beautiful country with friendly people
All was wonderful except Shemeji Safari company. The itinerary they advertise is ambigious, they promise 2 days in Serengeti but it is actually 1 day. Beware this when comparing with other companies. It looks cheaper, but in fact it is much more expensive compared to what is offered. When tried to discuss this, instead of understanding and giving an explanation, manager (Emma) started to shout at me. Thanks to Patrick, our guide, who had much better communication abilities than Emma, our holiday is saved.

An amazing experience on safari in Tanzania with Bensons Safari
Our amazing time on safari in Tanzania was filled with incredible breathtaking scenery and wildlife experiences. We learnt so much about the country, the history and life in Tanzania. We saw so many different animals and birds that we just didn't have any idea we would see while there.
It is hard to define highlights as it was all so good, however we loved staying at Kubu Kubu tented accommodation in the Serengeti and Tarangire Safari Lodge tents in the beautiful Tarangire National Park.
Our guide, Peter, was fabulous. We would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a local English speaking guide.
The only thing we might do differently if we did this tour again is to perhaps stay more than one night at a couple of places and do half day tours and enjoy more of the facilities at the accommodation venues. We only got the opportunity to swim at two places due to timing of pool closures in the evenings.

Amazing experience. Many pictures, many wild animals, fantastic environment
We sow over than 30 different species of animals. Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro were the places that we visited. The environment was amazing and the weather conditions on February were ideal for the safari experience. The location of the camps is inside the savana. During the night you can see also wild animals around the tends. It looks like dangerous but it is just adventurous. There is no risk on that, because there are always guardians around. Fredie, our guide was very good. It is important to know where you have to go and find out where the wild animals are. He was very friendly and help us to have the best experience. Thank you

It was an excellent combination of beauty and adventure!
Everything was AMAZING! However I was brand new to the outdoor camping experience and was not really prepared. Having to pitch a tent, sleep outdoors knowing wild animals were surrounding me, disgusting outdoor bathrooms, on top of the torrential rain led to some very sleepless/uncomfortable nights for me. If I could afford to stay at a lodge then that would have made for a more comfortable and less scared Tanzanian experience. The breakfast was hit or miss. It was either shortbread biscuits with coffee or tea, which I do not drink (nor was it fulfilling) or delicious crepes (pancakes) with eggs and fruit, which I much preferred. The picnic lunch was not the best, but it was included with my package so I did not have to pay extra for food. The wildlife, scenery, and weather was breathtakingly GORGEOUS! It was so surreal the scenic beauty of the land and being able to see all the animals in their natural habitat. Unfortunately I was with a dull group that lacked personality, meaning they did not engage much in conversations when I tried to carry on one. They unfortunately did not share my same enthusiasm, which was disappointing because I was so excited and they were so...QUIET and reserved (Crickets, crickets). When we ate dinner they kept looking at the other tables, who were laughing and having fun, and I kept thinking, "I wish I was with that group!" Lol. However my guide was GREAT! He let me sit in the front with him and was very engaging and knowledgeable. I loved the transportation being in the safari jeeps and riding along the many different terrains! Overall my Tanzanian experience was an INCREDIBLE adventure that I would love to do again! (Just not in a tent)

Beautiful scenery, wonderful wildlife viewing and amazing experiences
Excellent organisation from Paul Tickner Safaris, we loved all our accommodation.
Whale sharks were a highlight at Mafia Island, and we cant recommend Pole Pole highly enough.
Fanjove Island will always epitomise paradise in my memory, I truly hope that it remains unspoilt .... it is perfect just as it is !!

A once in a lifetime experience!
The best part of our trip was the safari we booked through safaribookings.com. We choose a 5 day safari with a few nights camping in the Serengeti. 5 days was plenty of time and we saw so many different animals and of course the big 5!
Our guide was passionate and very knowledgeable. We all developed a bond and we still text via WhatsAp from time to time. The lodge, Farm of Dreams, that they put us up in was pretty amazing! They were little huts but they had all the great amenities of a nice hotel. We were treated really well by the hotel staff and workers. I highly recommend this lodging.
In the beginning I felt very overwhelmed planning our trip to Tanzania. Especially the safari leg. SafariBookings.com made it so easy to decide what company I was going to go with. I loved how I was able to review each one day by day and the site is very organized. I would use you guys again! And I recommend you to all my friends!! Thank you again!

Safari in Tanzania is something you should experience once in a lifetime.Ma
My safari operated by Kili Slope and Kili Holidays was an amazing experience and adventure. They arranged a wonderful tour with wildlife and culturell encounters, through Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Eyasi Communitiy. Our skillfull guide/driver Thomas offered us an unexpected knowledge about the behaviour of the wildlife population and he was very familiar with the best places to spot animals. Whereas Jackson introduced me together with local guides to the customs of tribes like Maasai, Hadzabe and Dakota.
The accomodations were wonderful and I enjoyed most the stay in a tented camp within the Serengeti, close to natur and animal tracks.
