  Our guides Simon and Maliaki have an excellent eye to spot wildlife and their knowledge to answer questions and to talk about the different animals really elevated the experience. I can’t fault them, their driving made me feel safe and I could relax between the different national parks knowing we would get there safe and sound. Simba our chef did an amazing job preparing the food buffets for us, I can’t stress it enough how good the food was. There was also plenty of it for everyone so no one went hungry.

  Packaged booked- 4 days Mt. Meru Trek, 4 Days Safari. I just got back from a fantastic 4 days’ trek to Mt. Meru and an unforgettable 4 days of Safari in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire! I searched and wrote to more than 10 tour agencies as a solo traveler and not one was so flexible as to accommodate a solo traveler into a group tours than Travel Africa Safari Agency. Mohamed sent me proposals according to my specified dates and wishes. He was very accommodating and he communicated promptly the proposal in a very professional way, and created a brochure like proposal with pictures of the activities. Other agencies who have good ratings responded back 2-3 days later. So 5 stars for great response time to Mohamed! I booked a package for 4 days safari and 4 days Mt. Meru trek and Mohamed advised me all the way from when to start the trek down to what gears to take to the trek. He was very, very helpful. Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro airport, I was greeted by driver Godfrey holding up my name, who was friendly and spoke good English. He was very helpful in getting me settled in with the ATM and Sim Card before driving to the hotel. Please do not forget to tip the driver! The next day was the first day of trekking to Mt. Meru. Jacklin, Mohamed’s very funny and lively assistant greeted me together with my guide Emanuel for the briefing. Emanuel, a very capable, professional, funny guide told me what not to take to the mountains and what to leave for the safari later on. They took care of my luggage with my safari clothes and stuff, very convenient! Together with Emanuel, Godfrey, Barik (the cook) and the porters, we drove towards the mountains and joined other groups with the ranger Rocky. We set foot through green forests and saw some animals along the way. Beautiful sceneries. We went everyday for 6-7 hours and stayed overnight in huts. Barik prepared very , very tasty meals, always with a delicious soup as a starter, main course like fish, chicken, beef, pasta and fruits. Coffee and Tea are a daily part of the meals. I was very happy with the food! I was served warm water for cleaning up after every trek , before the trek. Emanuel ensured I had everything I needed. The day of the summit trek, I was feeling a bit sick and Emanuel guided me with such patience, and utmost profession that he was able to calm my nervousness and anxiety. The hike up the to the summit was not so easy for me, but the brilliant stars, the orange crescent moon and looking over the lights in Arusha below was much more worth it. Upon arrival at the summit, we saw Mt. Kilimanjaro. Breathtaking views everywhere. The red ball of sun was just rising up the clouds and it was magical. Emanuel gave me hot tea, such luxury. We sang the Jamba Hakuna Matata song , it was the most exhilirating experience! I got a stomach problem & the guide Emanuel made sure to help me.The way down was beautiful, we saw buffaloes, Giraffes up close. They brought me to the hotel, which was part of the package and the next day was the start of the 4 days safari. The driver Levine picked me up & other clients. In Serengeti I had a beautiful tented lodge with dinner & breakfast included.The 2nd day was a different lodge by the Ngorongoro rim, with great vuews & food. Levine was very knowledgeable & explained to us about animal behaviors, Masai tribes, drove us to see many incrediblr wildlife.I was brought to a hotel included in the package on the last day of safari. The next day was a free say & Mohamed kindly sent a driver Joel & his car for me to use! This was an amazing service Mohamed offered. I got to see Cultural Heritage, Tanzanite experience. Joel recommended a good restaurant, all good. On my departure day, Mohamed came to say goodbye, Godfrey brought me to the airport & I got a Travel Africa TSHIRT! The whole trip was one of the best trips I had & all because Mohamed & his team gave a great service. I highly recommend booking with them !

  We had a wonderful experience at our safari tour. Norton was a great guide with a big knowledge about the animals and he did everything to make this experience unique. Sule is an amazing chef who cooked very tasty meals everyday and made us feel like home. We were also very happy with the tour operator. Mohamed adjusted the itinerary according to our requests. We also liked it that you only pay 100$ in advance and the rest of it as soon as you meet Mohamed. Although the prices for safari seem to be very high, the operator is providing a very reasonable price. If you do your maths (entrance fees per person and car, accommodation, car + fuel, salary for guide and chef) you will find out that the price is very fair. It was an unforgettable experience!

  Such a memorable trip! Absolutely incredible!! Choosing 4days lodge safari was the best decision we could’ve made for our Tanzania trip. We initially communicated with Mohamed who sent us a detailed itinerary including the parks we would visit and the lodges we would stay at. He answered our many questions quickly and informatively. During the trip, David was our guide. You could tell how much he loves his job by his enthusiasm for animals and the national parks of Tanzania. He went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and that we saw as many animals as possible. All three meals were freshly made (delicious!!) and the lodges were absolutely beautiful and comfortable. You can’t go wrong with choosing Travel Africa Safari Agency! We will 100% be back! Thank you Mohamed and David for creating such a memorable trip for us!

  It was an absolutely amazing experience. I used Travel Africa Safari Agency to plan a trip with my college friends from the US. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti. We also got to explore local dishes and music while at our lodge. Since I am originally from Tanzania, I have been to Safari trips before, but our tour Guide Gerald knew amazingly detailed information about the animals and the places we were visiting. I felt that Gerald was really authentic and knowledgeable about animals and just general life in Tanzania. I am really glad that the planning was hustle free and they were excellent at making sure everybody had everything they needed before, during and after the trip. It was fantastic and I am looking forward to another trip very soon!
