Teshome was extremely kind and patient.

“I got to experience authentic cultural immersion (grinding coffee, making injera) and the walk in the park was refreshing. Teshome was such a great communicator and extremely kind. He also took me to a mall to buy the Habesha dress which was very thoughtful.”

Strongly Recommended Safari Company

“I appreciate the work that Damaz our host did to ensure that we had a flawless safari with only the best experience on the game drives in a good comfortable 4x4 vehicle just for the 4 of us, booked in great lodges with excellent rooms and amazing food - most important was that he had communicated all our dietary restrictions and room preferences to all these places beforehand and they were waiting for us. We were driven by Mustapha our guide who was well spoken, kind and a totally amiable person. His patience and professionalism was evident from the way he treated everyone and the animals with respect showing love even to people he was not responsible for. The parks were so beautiful but the rains limited our reach in Tarangire where we could not go very deep, however in Serengeti and Ngorongoro the roads were better. We were able to traverse deep in to areas with little or no traffic which made it so special and intimate. This trip is among the best we have done in Africa and again we appreciate our hosts.”

Unforgettable Safari Experience

“We did a 3-day fly-in safari from Zanzibar in early June 2025, and it exceeded all expectations. Traveling with my partner, we explored Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara — each with its own stunning and diverse landscape. One of the biggest highlights was the sheer variety and number of animals we saw. Elephants just a few feet away, hippos lounging in the water, giraffes gracefully walking across the plains, and even a black rhino in the distance — it felt like a dream. Our guide, Anwar, was exceptional: knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the wildlife and the region. The logistics were all taken care of seamlessly. Our flights were on time and comfortable, with airport transfers in both directions. The private safari jeep was well-equipped with charging ports, a fridge, and water, making the drives comfortable and convenient. Lodging was beautiful and welcoming, with great service and a real connection to nature. I would wholeheartedly recommend this safari to couples, adventure seekers, and first-time safari-goers alike. It’s the perfect mix of adventure, nature, and relaxation — an unforgettable way to experience Tanzania’s beauty.”

Reliable, passionate and communicative.

“We had arranged a two day fly in safari from Zanzibar to the Tarangire national park and to the Ngorongoro crater. The communication with Davies beforehand was fantastic. No question was too much! Everything was organised seamlessly and efficiently. We were very lucky to spot many rare animals and saw four out of the big five. (Definitely an incentive to come back) Abdallah, our guide and driver, was knowledgeable and his 22 years of experience really shone through. The parks themselves were stunning and it truly was a movie-like experience. The choice of lodge was also superb. Overall, I believe the value for money was very good and would highly recommend this tour operator. We cannot wait to be back. Thank you Davies, Abdallah and team.”
