Reviews for Tanzania

The Mass Mara and Serengeti were amazing. Zanzibar and its beautiful people and beaches, was a great way to finish off the trip. The ocean was much needed after all the African massages! (road trips on dirt roads). I got to see all of the big 5. I missed the great migration, so will be back! read more

Epic!read more

It was an excellent holiday and the mixture of hectic safari and downtime on the beach worked very well indeed. Hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti and also the excellent service at all the Elewana hotels.read more

What an amazing time we had. Abu was a great guide and we feel like we have new friends. We saw such great numbers of animals and some amazing interactions.read more

Great experience. We saw and did lots. The food was great and we were well prepared/looked after. And we could really see the difference we made. Plus we did a 2 day safari! Incredible! The people! Everyone in Tanzania was so smiley and kind. It was great fun waving at all the kids and getting to do something practical as a gift for families. They were so grateful and it was quite humbling. Also seeing the mother and baby clinic was great. The charity pays for the midwife and it’s made a real ...read more

It was a holiday of a lifetime for all four of us. It was rewarding, humbling and inspiring experience all in one. It was great to work together as a family, and work with other families and volunteers, and get to know them and enjoy the experience all together. Graham and Claire were amazing too, and hugely contributed to making the trip so special for us. They are amazing individuals and inspiring to work with and get to know. Together they are making such a positive impact in the local ...read more

An overall great experience. Very good driver/guides. Well organised. Viewing wild animals in their natural habitat pursuing their normal routines. 5 stars. read more

I was SO pleased we went with this local operator as we were directly benefitting a Tanzanian family and also booking locally owned camps/lodges in some places. Refillable water bottles was great.read more

We give this trip a 10+++. Even though we were traveling with a mobility disability, the entire holiday was planned for our complete comfort. We never thought we would be able to see and do the things we did given the mobility restrictions. Job well done.read more

Great! Amazing time with family and meeting new people. Graham and Claire did a brilliant job organising the "Family Team" and the work of the projects we did for the local community. We can´t thank you enough for this great opportunity, and we are extremely grateful for having people like the workers at the project who make a Difference in Tanzania every day! Thanks for all you do!read more

The animals were of course amazing, but the hospitality of the camp teams and our guide were INCREDIBLE!! PERFECT! The best vacation I have ever taken!read more

Seeing so many lions close up and moving alongside a lioness and her three cubs for about half an hour as she patiently led them ,waiting for them t catch up. Watching about ten elephants wallowing in water and interacting with one another. When they lifted their heads out of the water they had weeds hanging from their tusks. Seeing great herds of wildebeest and zebra on the endless plains. We rate our holiday very highly. This was because is was so well planned by Ann and carried out by Abu ...read more

There is no doubt that if you want to see animals this is the holiday for you. Vast herds, close ups of cheetahs, lions and leopards and iconic savannah scenery its all there and the guides work very hard to make sure you get that picture. Highlights for us included watching a mother cheetah and her cubs take a reed buck , watching hyenas and vultures hovering around a lion's kill and of course the elephants.read more

The most challenging, most exciting, most rewarding and most memorable family holiday we have done. Thank youfor this incredible blessing. Encounters and relationships with people: Claire and Graham and the local team of builders, teachers, the children, the women in Rehema and Sister Miriam at the Maternity Clinic. And we loved Kahawa and Pudding (the dogs). Travelling: through Kenya, the Rift Valley, bouncing around in the Land Rovers, the endless plain of the Serengeti, the incredible ...read more

Excellent. Great if you have active teens looking for an adventure that does good. Finishing the goat shed, watching our lads challenging the local lads at football, watching the sun set from Eagle rock, and watching my two teens bond with other teens, come off wifi and step up to the work! Many vivid memories made in a great group atmosphere on this working holiday.read more

There is so much to choose from!!! If I had to pick one thing it would be the people- the local Tanzanians, the in holiday support (who we couldn't live without) and the other volunteers who were there at the same time. The best thing we have ever done!!! We can't wait to go back!read more

The safari in Kenya was spectacular. The hotel in Nairobi and all the lodges were an excellent standard as was the service and food. All the staff were helpful and friendly.read more

Combining the mountain trek, multi-site safari and time on Zanzibar worked well. read more

Absolutely five stars! Everything worked beautifully. We felt very looked after. Our safaris were incredibly special (and we felt our guides acted responsibly around the animals and were sensitive to their behaviours). Zanzibar has some of the most beautiful beaches I have seen. read more

It was an amazing time offering exceptional experiences, due in part to the amazing knowledge of the driver guide, Justinread more

The safari itself, what we saw and experienced, the care of our driver and guide. We had a great time, all the time, and fulfilled what we planned the safari to be. read more

Great safari. We were five adults and had a blast. Our guide was very informative and patient with us. Special thanks to Ann. Answered all my questions and accommodated all the last minute changes when we could add our son-in-law to the trip and when our flight got cancelled the day before the trip started! read more

Exceeded expectations. Seeing the animals at Tanagire National Park. 5*read more

Being with animals in their natural habitat in the wild and experiencing vicariously their sense of freedom. read more

I got to do all that I wanted to do for this trip and more. Having a local's expertise during the planning stages of the trip made the difference because they know the lay of the land and what works and doesn't which would help you in creating the perfect itinerary. read more

Excellent safari, Made in Tanzania. Highlights included the Great Migration at Ndutu (best place to be in January), and massive elephant herds in Ngorongoro. Great service and great safari. Top holiday - thanks!read more

Ann in the office and Abu on the road are an amazing team! Ann put together a great itinerary and was very patient with all my questions, and Abu made sure we had a great experience covering many kilometres over the 6 days. Our 3 teenage kids loved it. We felt cared for and special and loved having Abu join us each night on safari for dinner so we could learn more about Tanzania. We saw all the Big Five as well as so much more. Loved having picnics along the way. Favourite place was ...read more

Fantastic! From start to finish, Marie has been so helpful and knowledgeable in getting our trip organised. While on safari we feel that we could not have got any more out of it if we tried. Our guide was the absolute best and we adored him. Our second week on Zanzibar was truly relaxing and we were totally spoilt. THANK YOU!!!! read more

Excellent! Outstanding! After a lifetime of saying I wanted to get to Africa someday, I finally did it! The whole trip far exceeded my already high expectations. If you can possibly swing it, go!! You will not regret it.read more

Once in a lifetime experiences, all in one holiday!read more

For me, the most memorable parts of my vacation were the intellectually stimulating conversations I had with my guide as well as getting to see the Big 5 over the course of my safari. read more

Most of it was both memorable and exciting. The gorilla trek was extremely tough but worth it and an adventure in its own right. Four days in Ruaha Park in Tanzania brought a huge number of sightings at close proximity as well as wonderful accommodations that we will remember forever. read more
