10 out of 10! We felt more than well looked after by Ayubu and Naturetraveltanzania. He made everything possible. Whether planning before or during the trip. The best man! Attentive, humorous and simply sympathetic. You can't go wrong with him.

Our family (2 kids 7 and 11 years old) had a perfect safari with our excellent guide from Nature Travel Tanzania. Although it was right after the rain season and gras was hight we saw lots of animals in Tarangire National Parc. Our guide knew perfectly his way around, gave us lots of information in perfect English and we had so much fun together with him and always felt safe and well entertained. Thank you so much for this unique experience!

Embarking on a safari adventure with my children, aged 8 and 10, we were graced with the expertise of a guide and the culinary delights of a chef on our camping journey. Our expedition took us through the majestic Tarangire Park, the vast Serengeti, and the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater. The experience was nothing short of magnificent. Our guide was exceptional, leading us to encounters with every animal we hoped to see—and then some. Meanwhile, our chef spoiled us with delectable meals that were a treat to our taste buds. He even went the extra mile for the kids, preparing delicious popcorn and chips for the drives. We had an incredible time, creating fantastic memories. I highly recommend this tour provider for their impeccable organization and the unforgettable experience they offer. It was a journey that exceeded all expectations, leaving us with a deep appreciation for the wonders of the wild.

We had a fantastic time with Ayubu! We had booked a hike to Mount Meru and a 5-day safari to the Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro parks. But let's start at the beginning: the communication before the trip was already great! Ayubu answered all of our questions and is flexible to our requests (before and on site). received. The time on site was extremely organized, which is why everything went smoothly. Ayubu is a friendly and helpful person who is a pleasure to spend time with! We were deeply impressed by his knowledge of the animals and his ability to discover them. So, all in all, nothing to complain about and only recommended! Thanks for everything ☺️

We booked as a family (2 adults, 4 kids) a 4nights/5days safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro) with NatureTravelTanzania and had a wonderful time! Contact with Ayubu during planning was extremely reliable, a very short answering time, he was always responsive. During the Safari we have seen a lot heard many facts about animals and plants from our tour guide. Food was excellent - Mr. Lee did a great job! We can definitely recommend doing a safari with this company.
