Just returned from a fantastic trip in 2016, I came into contact with the holiday fair in Utrecht. After a very nice conversation and information, I decided to book with Makasa. I really liked everything, everything was tip top. This year was my 6th time staying with Makasa. I've been to Tanzania, that says enough!!! You can never get tired of it. I have experienced the crossing of the wildebeest over the Mara River, it is indescribable! What a spectacle. The southern parks are also worth a visit. If you are considering going on safari to Tanzania, I can highly recommend Makasa. Marta Lamme Holland

Went out with Makasi for a week. A fantastic experience, not least because of our guide Agostino. In addition to having an enormous knowledge of nature and a magical eye for spotting animals, he is a very pleasant person to travel with for a week through beautiful nature. Has humor and is very spontaneous. Without him it certainly wouldn't have been as much fun. Everything else was well arranged and you didn't have to worry about anything with accommodations. And if there was anything, there was always Agostino to help you.

Our 4th safari in Tanzania, which was again perfectly organized by Selma from MAKASA, was a dream! As always, our guide was Humphrey, who made every day an absolute experience. We would never go on a safari without Humphrey - there is no better guide for us! Humphrey knows every national park like the back of his hand, always has a plan of where to find animals, anticipates where predators will kill their prey and is in exactly the right place when that happens. Humphrey is a walking encyclopedia with endless knowledge of all large and small animals, knows practically every bird and can explain the migration of large herds like no other. He also always finds the perfect spot with the best light for photographers. Humphrey is also an incredibly nice person - he is a legend among the guides, everyone knows him because he has helped almost everyone at least once to find the way or an animal that customers were longing for - e.g. the caracal in the Serengeti, which the photographers so desperately needed. Humphrey is helpful, sensitive and humorous, we always have a lot of fun together and in the 8 years that we have known each other we have become best friends and are constantly in touch. MAKASA and Humphrey are our absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to go on a safari in Tanzania that they will never forget.

We had a wonderful 17-day trip in Tanzania and Zanzibar. Moses was our kind and knowledgeable guide during the ten days safari. Besides being an excellent guide, he also turned out to be an excellent driver. Which was absolutely necessary on the bad roads at the beginning of the rainy season. During this period there are many young animals. We found it fascinating how, for example, young wildebeest ran next to their mothers. The experience of the animals in Ndutu was especially wonderful because you can get close to them 'off-road'. During this time you have to travel a lot in that area! Makasa had everything neatly organized, all good overnight stays and all our transport to the lodges and hotels was well arranged.

We had a perfect safari with Makasa-guide Humphrey. Thanks to Humphrey we did not only see everything and more than we expected (including the Big Five and part of the Great Migration), but also we enjoyed a pleasant and safe stay in this beautiful country. Humphrey is well educated and experienced in nature, so we learned a lot. Highly recommended!

This was our fourth time traveling with Makasa and certainly not the last time. This trip was also very special. Thanks to Selma's organizational talent and the way she flawlessly senses what suits us, we had great accommodations and everything was arranged down to the last detail. And thanks to our fantastic guide Humphrey without whose knowledge, experience and enormous drive the trip wouldn't be half as good. We have traveled a lot through Africa, sometimes independently, sometimes organized, but we lost our hearts to Tanzania, Makasa and Humphrey! I recommend everyone to visit Tanzania at least once in your life and do it through Makasa to be assured of a tailor-made trip that suits you with good cars and excellent guides who know the parks and their roads well.

Had a great trip and Selma from Makasa is also easily accessible along the way. Friendly good guide and driver who told us a lot about the animals. Everything was well arranged and organised.

Makasa Safari (Selma) had completely tailor-made the trip for us. Nice contact in Dutch. The trip was beautiful. Very good accommodations, beautiful nature and route, but above all a very skilled, fun and enthusiastic guide. Augustino had a lot to tell and spotted the animals from a distance. Then relax for a while in Zanzibar. A very special trip for us as a family where we made wonderful memories.

We have just returned from our unforgettable trip with our family (4 children aged 13-21) to Tanzania. Our trip started in Moshi at the end of April. We spent a few days there at the AMEG lodge, a beautiful location. Godwin was our expert, friendly driver these first days. Then we spent 2 days with the Masai. Here we were initiated into the traditions of the Masai. That was a very special experience. We were taken into their way of life. Then our 10-day safari began. Augustino was our enthusiastic guide. He knew a lot about nature and told us a lot about his country and culture. We started our safari in Tarangire park. We saw a lot there. Unfortunately, there were also many tsetse flies, which stung annoyingly, which our children did not appreciate. But that didn't spoil the fun. Then we drove on for a 4-day safari in the Serengetti. We stayed at the Elewana Pioneer Lodge, a beautiful tented camp in the middle of the Serengetti. We enjoyed the landscape, all the animals, but also the delicious food and the hospitality and luxury in the lodge. Then we went to the Ngorogoro crater, where we also spent a day driving around. It is unbelievable how beautiful it was there and how many species of animals can be found there. We were there in the rainy season. We had some rain twice in the morning, but otherwise the weather was beautiful. Because it had rained a lot in the weeks before, driving in the parks was a challenge because of all the puddles and mud. But Augustino is an experienced driver and this turned out to be fine for him. We are happy with our choice of this beautiful country. We are very satisfied with Makasa, the way it was all arranged and the lodges. And we were very happy with Godwin and Augustino!

We (family with adult children) had a great week. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and saw everything we hoped for, even though not all roads could be prepared due to the rainy season that was just about over. the very good lodges/tented camps were in beautiful locations. And the guide... we couldn't have asked for a better one. Recommended!
