Highly Recommend African Savannah Trekkers and Elisante! I can't recommend African Savannah Trekkers enough! I discussed trip options with multiple companies, and it was a no brainer to go with African Savannah. Communication from this company can hardly be matched - I always had a response within 1-2 days, and usually within just a few hours. And I sent MANY emails asking questions, rearranging the itinerary, etc to make sure that I had all the information I wanted before I committed and paid. Maureen and Amsi were great to communicate with. But what really sealed the deal was my guide, Elisante. He is extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and patient, and made sure I got the best photos. I can't stress enough having a knowledgeable guide who can find where the animals are. He knows the staff at all lodging locations well, and was more than accommodating whenever I needed anything - extra food, a particular souvenir, back up down the road to get another photo of an animal, sit in a spot for 15 minutes gazing at elephants - you name it. ASK FOR ELISANTE - you will not regret it. *NOTE* That $50 bills before 2006 are not accepted in TZ. Thank you African Savannah for the trip of a lifetime!

A wonderful tour in Tanzania We were a group of 3 people and booked a safari with African Savannah Trekkers for 5 nights and 6 days. Communication with Amsi was great! Our guide Horace was very good to us and detailed with everything we inquired as we visited Manyara,Tarangire,Ngorongoro and Serengeti. It was an amazing tour

Amazing safari! African Savannah Trekkers planned a personalized safari for me for March 2020. I was in Arusha for a conference and began planning my safari only a month or beforehand. I emailed African Savannah Trekkers and had great experiences emailing with Philomena Amsi. She was always very responsive and patient to some delays in response from my side. She worked with my to design the itinerary that I wanted and best suited what I was looking for. On the first day of the safari, she came to meet me with the driver and we were able to go through the itinerary and confirm that everything was set. Eli was my driver and guide for the 7 days/6 nights. We visited Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, the Ndutu area, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the Ngorongoro crater, and Lake Manyara National Park. It was a busy 7 days but I had a great time and Eli was wonderful with maximizing the game drives. It was the rainy season and Eli did an excellent job navigating the roads!! And he was always willing to let me sit and watch the animals from the vehicle for as long as I wanted and waiting on my prompt before moving on. I brought my camera too and Eli was always willing to stop whenever I saw a new bird or a wanted a photo of the 1000th wildebeest. I was traveling alone and had great conversations with Eli. He's very informative and shared lots of great information on the animals, landscape, and Tanzania. Traveling alone before, I found it can be tricky for guides to maintain the right balance of conversation while also not overwhelming the traveler. Eli dropped me off at the Kilimanjaro airport in time for my departure flight and overall did a great job of managing time. I highly recommend African Savannah Trekkers and am so glad that I booked my first safari with them!

My best safari in Tanzania We were group of 6 people had a 5 day safari and visited Tarangire, Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara.The communication with Amsi was great.

The accommodations Hhando Coffee Lodge was very comfortable. Many thanks to team for arranging our wonderful time.

One of my best trips ever 🙂 Me and my wife was in Tanzania for 5 days in Jan. We were super excited & also a bit anxious at the same time as we have never been to Tanzania before. We landed in Kilimanjaro, went through the immigration, the staffs were so welcoming. Horace(our guide) was waiting for us outside the airport with a big smile on his face :). We stayed in Arusha that night. Next morning Maureen came to say hi and reconfirm the itinerary which i felt was so professional. We spent one night in Serengeti Heritage camp (Highly recommended camp) and 2 nights in Ngorongoro Coffee lodge(Value for money). It was pretty early start and last finish most of the days and Horace made sure he was there on time. He was so friendly, knowledgeable and we felt we were in safe hands. we saw all the BIG 5 on the first day 🙂 but we were upset that we couldn't see cheetahs. Next day Horace drove us like 1 hour deep inside the plain just so we may spot cheetahs and we did see 3 cheetahs with cubs 🙂 🙂 . It was the best game drive ever. On the departure day Maureen took her time to come and meet us just to make sure everything went well. We did tell her that we are planning to come back again 🙂 The only thing that could be improved is the packed lunch. Overall African Savannah trekkers was amazing.

A great choice for a Northern Tanzania safari experience! I highly recommend African Savannah Trekkers for your experience in Tanzania. I selected the 4 day, 3 night Northern Tanzania safari and it was great. My communication with African Savannah Trekkers was good with fast, clear responses. They delivered on everything that was promised in the trip outline. I found their website to be more precise than others where they specify certain trips for a certain price. I was amazed at how many animals I saw over the four days! I picked the lodging option and was very happy with the rooms and meals.

First great safari experience with African Savannah Trekkers While researching what company to choose for our safari, I came across African Savannah Trekkers founded in 2009, I believe in supporting the local entrepreneurs and their employees as much as possible. So this company was a great choice for me and my wife. African Savannah Trekkers is a young, small, very well run company. Maureen communicates via email herself with us. She answered all my questions promptly and it was clear she was anxious to please us. She planned a safari which would allow us to see the highlights we wanted in the short time frame we had. All the accommodations were very good, luxury hotels and farmhouse. Our guide Eli was so knowledgeable about the animals and the geology of the land. He definitely took care of us, watched out for us, and entertained us with his knowledge. I can't wait to go back. To be honest I highly recommend this company for those searching for an enjoyable, informative, affordable and well planned adventure. Thank you Eli, Mureen, and African Savanah. We miss you

Great experience...no complaints all the way around 5 star experience from all the staff and drivers for the safari to the accommodations, great experience. Booked the 5 day/4 night safari with for 3 people and from the beginning I knew I was in good hands. Highly recommend this operator.

excellent experience We had a 4 day safari and visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara. Already in advance, the communication with Maureen went smoothly.
