5.00Our trip with a local flight Seronera to Serengeti where we were met by Mustapha our guide. He drove us to Serengeti Safari Lodge, and we could not help but marvel at the beautiful landscape and wild animals such that began enjoying the parks before we got to our Lodge. The Lodge blends in perfectly with the surroundings and sits close to the migration corridor and we did not have to go far in pursuit of action. We spent 4 days exploring other areas of Serengeti and then headed to Ngorongoro Wild Camp which is another lovely property perched high above the Ngorongoro Highlands overlooking Lake Eyasi basin where we went for to meet the Hadzabe Bushmen. We also descended down the crater where had many close encounters with wildlife. All this time Mustapha was super guide that kept us safe and captivated as we listened to him. Rating this trip anything below the five stars will be an injustice to the exemplary work done by the entire Tanzania Wildlife Adventures team.
A Great trip

5.00What a trip! Well planned with all the parks, accommodations and tribal visits booked. Yusuph our made the trip even better with his charming way and expert safari guiding skills. We visited a total of 4 parks starting with Tarangire, where we saw lots of elephants, great baobab trees and mixed species of herbivores mainly along Tarangire river. Lake Manyara was mostly a dense forest and bush surrounding the Lake. There were lots of baboon, antelopes, a few buffalo and elephants. We chanced on a a couple of lions sleeping in trees which was quite peculiar. Serengeti was the action hub. The park is vast and we spent a total of 3 days exploring various sections in the park. We saw the great migration, lots of zebras, antelopes, wild dogs, hyenas, vultures, hippos and lots of different birds. We finished off with Ngorongoro Crater where there was a great mix of different animals including a couple of black rhinos. We were able to spent time with the Hadzabe bushmen, Maasai and Datoga tribes during the tour. The lodgings were carefully selected so that we did not have to go far from the tour circuit and they were all nice.
Made Amazing Memories

5.00Very well organized safari as the whole experience exceeded all our expectations in all fronts. Booking with Isdory was a breeze, he made everything easy. The related costs were reasonable when compared to the other operators that were offering almost identical packages to the same lodges. Marck was outstanding as a guide. He was able to spot animals with ease, friendly and knowledgeable from the way he answered our questions and maneuvered in the parks. We enjoyed the different animal encounters in their natural habitat and this was something that one cannot put on paper. We had many special moments in the wild and it felt like we were in a romantic set of a movie, where we were the main cast. We will be returning to Africa and Tanzania and our first point of call will be Tanzania Wildlife Adventures.
Excellent Trip to Tanzania

5.00The safari tour was incredible. Exploring the parks with a master guide who knew everything about the parks, in a spacious Landcruiser that took us to all the corners of the parks. The number of wild animals that we saw is just unbelievable ranging from elephants, lions, monkeys, birds and so many other animals. Lodges selected for the tour were first class with nice rooms, great food and first class service. We had an incredible time and I would not change anything about this trip.
Thank You For Another Outstanding Trip

5.00This is the second trip with Tanzania Wildlife Adventures and it was also perfectly organized from start to finish. Our guide Marck is the reason that we had such an incredible time. He was incredibly knowledgeable about everything, friendly and a charismatic person to be around. He made every activity interesting and was dedicated towards our happiness. The overnight stays were all thoughtfully selected and along the circuit. Sleeping under canvas in the middle of the bush with wild animals roaming closely has it's own special thrill and I never get used to it. The quality of food and rooms was outstanding. We enjoyed the trip very much and I give top marks again for a job well done.
A Fantastic Safari

5.00The safari adventure trip was awesome. We enjoyed the incredible game drives of Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We really had fun in the luxury resorts in the parks. Waking up in the middle of the parks to a hearty breakfast and excellent service waiting for us is something that we adored. The staff in all the lodges were helpful and so kind, however it us Marck our guide who stole our hearts. He is a very skilled guide and great company too. We were together throughout the trip and he was genuinely interested and keen in our comfort and satisfaction. His excellent English came in handy many times like when we went to the Hadza tribe and he was the go between. All in all we had an incredible time and would not change even a single thing about the trip
Amazing encounter! A Trip to Recall!

5.00Tanzania Wildlife Adventures provided our family of five with an amazing experience. Rafael, our tour, was really entertaining, patient, and informed! Communication was easy because he spoke French and English well. At Ngorongoro, we had the good fortune to witness a rhino up close in addition to the other species. With its gorgeous white sand beaches and pristine oceans, Zanzibar was similarly breathtaking. After our safari, the hotel we stayed at was a lovely place to unwind. Visiting a local spice farm was one of our favorite experiences; there, we tasted fresh spices straight from the source and discovered the island's long history of producing spices. Zanzibar was the ideal place to conclude our journey because of its beauty and culture.
Experience to live once in your life!

5.00We did 5 days of wonderful safari accompanied by a French-speaking guide and a driver in a private car. We visited Tarangire Park, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara and a Masaai lodge. We were lucky enough to see all the iconic animals including leopards and rhinos! The welcome from the staff was very warm and the hotels offered were very comfortable. We couldn't have dreamed better for a first romantic safari! We recommend 100%!
The most incredible vacation

5.00My family of six just got back from Tanzania where we had an incredible time. Baraka was an amazing guide. From the moment Baraka took collected us from our hotel in Moshi we immediately got to like him. He is easygoing, charming and very experienced guide. His presence enriched our trip because he knew where to find the animals, their routes, translated a lot of Swahili and Maasai between us the locals. He was there for everything! We even scored some very good bargains at the Masai market in Arusha. It would be an understatement to say that the trip was great. It was much more than that.....Definitely the most amazing safari experience that surpassed all our expectations.
Great trip

5.00We went on a private luxury safari with the best guide, Moses. This is the most fantastic experience we have had on tour as a family. To begin with, the stays were luxurious, nice comfortable rooms and delicious meals. Moses was knowledgeable about everything Tanzania was. He knew about all the animals we saw. He took excellent care of us throughout the trip. I thank TWA for putting together this wonderful trip.
