The best trip of our lives We had the most amazing trip with Tanzania Serengeti Adventure. Everything was so well organised from start to finish, and it honestly exceeded all of our expectations. Our safari guide Rogathe was fantastic. He was so knowledgeable and had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw all of the Big Five and so many other amazing animals. The safari was unforgettable, and finishing the trip in Zanzibar was the perfect way to relax afterwards. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Tanzania Serengeti Adventure to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania.

Serengeti Safari Experience Our honeymoon safari with Tanzania Serengeti Adventures was truly the trip of a lifetime, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. A huge thank you to Almerick, who helped us plan a trip that was even better than we could have imagined. From our very first conversation, he took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and customized every detail of our itinerary. Thanks to his planning, we were not only able to witness the incredible Great Migration river crossing but also explore so much of Serengeti National Park. He gave us several accommodation options to choose from, and every lodge we stayed at exceeded our expectations. The planning was flawless. As it was our honeymoon, each hotel had thoughtful surprises waiting for us, making the trip feel even more special. Everything had been arranged in advance, including my dietary requirements. Whether we had an early morning game drive and needed breakfast in the bush, packed lunches, or snacks for long drives, every detail was taken care of seamlessly. Before our trip, Almerick personally called us to walk us through our itinerary, explain the entry requirements, ensure we had all the necessary documents in place, and answer any questions we had. It gave us complete confidence before we even arrived in Tanzania. Throughout the trip, he also stayed in constant contact with both us and our guide, regularly checking in to make sure everything was going smoothly and to see if we needed anything. That level of care and attention made us feel incredibly well looked after. One thing we especially appreciated was how well-balanced the itinerary was. It was thoughtfully organized while still giving us the flexibility to decide our game drive timings each day with our guide, allowing us to make the most of every safari experience. We also want to give a very special thank you to our guide, Jafari, who truly made this trip unforgettable. His knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm were exceptional. He went above and beyond every single day to ensure we had the best wildlife sightings possible across all our safari destinations. Whether it was a 5:00 a.m. game drive or a late evening return, he was always ready before us, making sure everything—from our snacks to the day’s plan—was prepared. Our itinerary involved driving between different parts of the Serengeti, and Jafari made every journey enjoyable. He planned regular breaks and scenic stops so the longer drives never felt tiring, and he was an excellent driver, so we always felt safe and comfortable. We could simply relax, take in the breathtaking scenery, and enjoy the experience. Jafari was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, ecosystems, and animal behavior, and he shared so much with us throughout the journey. He explained the plan for each day clearly, answered every question with patience, and made us feel completely at ease. We always knew we could trust his expertise, and his dedication made all the difference. If you’re looking for a safari company that genuinely listens, tailors your trip to your preferences, and delivers an unforgettable experience with outstanding guides, I cannot recommend Tanzania Serengeti Adventures highly enough. Thank you, Almerick, Jafari, and the entire team for making our honeymoon so magical. We will treasure these memories forever and cannot wait to come back someday!

The Kilimanjaro hike of my dreams! Thank you Kakas! Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with this company was truly a life-changing experience. The entire trip was incredibly well organized and seamless from start to finish, and we always felt safe and well cared for. Our head guide, William, was exceptionally attentive and knowledgeable. He monitored our oxygen levels each evening, carefully listened to any symptoms we had, and made thoughtful adjustments along the way to make sure everyone was healthy and supported. The whole team was outstanding. Our cooks, Solomon and Cirily, somehow managed to create amazing, healthy meals on the mountain (including a surprise pizza one night after we mentioned we were craving it!). The porters were hardworking, kind, and full of humour, and they created such a positive and supportive atmosphere throughout the trek. It was clear how much pride and care everyone took in their work. I want to particularly say thank you to our guide Godlove. He is one of the kindest, and most genuine people I have met. His deep love and respect for the mountain was evident every day, and experiencing Kilimanjaro through his perspective made the journey even more meaningful—from the vast, moon-like landscapes to the small details he pointed out along the way, like his favourite little purple flower. In moments when I felt worried or uncertain, he was calm, supportive, and reassuring. His quiet confidence, knowledge, and gentle sense of humour made him an incredible guide, and he was truly a highlight of the entire experience. I also did a couple days of safari-ing with their guide Phil, who is so hilarious and wonderful. He made sure every moment was full of wonder and fun, and introduced us to one of our favourite Tanzanian experiences: bbq with pili pili sauce. We had such a hoot with Phil. He really is the best. I would recommend this company to anyone planning to hike the mountain or visit Tanzania. You’re guaranteed to be well taken care of and have a once in a lifetime experience.

Trip of a Lifetime! From start to finish our 25 day trip with Tanzania Serengeti Adventure was incredible! Almerick curated a completely custom itinerary that perfectly blended safari (Lake Natron, Serengeti, Ndutu & Ngorongoro Crater), tribal visits (Maasai, Hadzabe & Datoga), and our Kilimanjaro climb (Lemosho Route). It was truly the trip of a lifetime with my dad and best friend. What stood out most was their communication. They genuinely listened to what I wanted to create and thoughtfully tailored every element to match our vision and the kind of experience we hoped to have. In the months leading up to the trip, they were proactive and thorough. The support in preparation for our travels was greatly appreciated - from visa guidance, flight suggestions and detailed packing lists, to scheduling calls to make sure we felt comfortable. Once on the ground, everything flowed seamlessly. The accommodations were all wonderful, each offering something special and comfortable after long days of adventure. The guides they hired were knowledgeable, professional, warm, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s rare to find a company that executes both the big picture and the small details so flawlessly. I would highly recommend TSA to anyone considering a safari, cultural experience, or Kilimanjaro climb. An unforgettable experience from beginning to end!

Amazing trip to the game parks in Tanzania We were a group of 9 and we traveled with Tanzania Serengeti Adventure Ltd. from December 15 to 31, 2025. We did the Tanzanian Game Parks, namely Tarangiri, Ndutu, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We ended our tour in Zanzibar where we stayed at a great resort called Ocean Paradise and our final destination was Tembo Hotel in Stone Town. Our trip was very well organized by this company. Their service was impeccable and they checked in with us every day. The hotels we stayed at were very well chosen and of a high standard. Our guides/drivers were Frank Max and Richard Anthony. Both these drivers were amazing, very helpful and cordial and we saw all the big five animals.

An amazing once-in-a-lifetime trip! We had a wonderful safari and beach trip with Tanzania Serengeti Adventure (TSA)! We started with a few days staying on the beach in Zanzibar to recover from the long flight, followed by a couple of days exploring Stone Town before flying to northern Serengeti for a 10 day safari. We spent several days in the Serengeti before driving to Ngorongoro Crater and on to Lake Manyara and Tarangire, ending with a couple of days in the Kilimanjaro region. The people at TSA were very communicative, both before and during our trip, and we felt that the price was competitive and very reasonable for what we got. The TSA staff were extremely helpful and went out of their way to make sure that the trip was everything that we requested and more. Our safari guide/driver was amazing - a very skillful driver (on narrow, rough dirt roads), very knowledgeable about the wildlife, and great at spotting animals and maneuvering our vehicle into the best viewing spots. We saw a wonderful variety of animals, including lions just a few feet from our vehicle! TSA arranged for us to stay in a variety of different lodges/tented camps, many in spectacular locations. All were spotlessly clean, with friendly, welcoming staff, and great food. We felt very safe and cared for throughout the entire trip. We hope to go back to Tanzania one day and would definitely use TSA again - highly recommend!

Wonderful company and experience An amazing experience curated with care by this company and its representative Almerick. We spent six days in Zanzibar and 12 days on safari. Our guide, Philemon, was incredible at finding wildlife and navigating the roads. Zanzibar was beautiful and a very different place than the mainland. The lodges selected by TSA Ltd were wonderful and comfortable, with attentive staff and good food. All in all, just could t have asked for more. We will be recommending TSA to all our friends!

Mini honeymoon in the Serengeti My husband and I had an amazing trip to the serengeti which was perfectly planned by Osric and his team. Although we did a 2 day trip, it wqs an incredible experience that we will never forget. From our amazing guide, Hauth to the game drive to the overnight stay in the serengeti, it was all magical. I would definitely choose Osric and his team to plan us another sweet getaway. We got to see alot of animals including my personal favorite, the male lions who dominate the serengeti. We had a wonderful stay at Tukaone camp surrounded by the animals of the wild 😅 along with great food. To the TSA team, thank you for the once in a lifetime experience and definitely going to do it again❤️

An Experience more than Our Expectations 💍 A Magical Serengeti Proposal I’ll Never Forget 🦁❤️ I couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect proposal. My partner and I were on a short safari in the Serengeti — but it felt like we stepped into another world. On our morning we had a magical balloon safari experience which was where i popped the question and she said Yes, upon landing our guide then took us to a secluded spot as the sun rise over the endless plains. Surrounded by golden light, acacia trees, and the distant calls of wildlife where we had a perfect bush breakfast. It was intimate, breathtaking, and completely surreal. The camp staff had helped plan everything — a sundowner setup, champagne, and even a candlelit dinner under the stars waiting when we returned. Every detail was flawless. The Serengeti is already one of the most incredible places on Earth, but this made it deeply personal. If you’re thinking of proposing on safari — stop thinking. Just do it. You’ll remember it forever. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — Wild, romantic, and absolutely unforgettable.

On safari, embrace the adventure of being in the wild dusty roads, rough terrain, limited Wi-Fi, occasional insects, and sometimes restricted electricity. These are part of the authentic bush experience. While not everything is perfect, that’s exactly what makes it magical. Our team ensures 5-star service and comfort throughout, so you can relax and truly enjoy the real luxury of safari, immersing yourself in nature and exploring Africa at its finest.

There isn’t a single “best” time – it all depends on what you’d like to experience, your budget, and your travel style. Below is a clear guide to help you choose the right season for your journey:

Dry Season (June–October & December–February)

Mid Season (March & November)

  • A great balance between fewer crowds and reasonable accommodation rates.
  • Weather can be unpredictable with short rains, but safaris remain rewarding.
  • Offers a more relaxed and intimate safari experience compared to peak months.

Green/Wet Season (April & May)

  • The most affordable time to visit, with the lowest accommodation rates.
  • Landscapes are lush, vibrant, and perfect for photography.
  • Parks are peaceful and less crowded.
  • Heavy rains may disrupt some travel plans, so flexibility is key.
