    We just completed an incredible 7-day trip to Kilimanjaro and on safari with our wonderful team: Abel, George, and Chaz. The experience was seamless from start to finish. This once-in-a-lifetime adventure was made possible thanks to George's responsiveness via WhatsApp, which allowed us to customize our itinerary. Abel expertly arranged all the travel logistics, ensuring everything ran smoothly.

    Our safari guide, Chaz, was exceptional and made the experience even more enjoyable. He was very flexible and always on the lookout for the animals, truly embodying the spirit of "hakuna matata!" A heartfelt asante to the entire team for making our dream of visiting Tanzania come true.

    We had the opportunity to experience the majestic Mt. Kilimanjaro during a day hike (since we’re not long-distance hikers) and saw a wide variety of wildlife in all three parks (Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro). The luxury camp we stayed at inside the Serengeti was absolutely incredible. We highly recommend this experience!

    Traveled as a couple to Tanzania with the focus on seeing the wildlife and landscape. Working with African Guides showed us how important it is to have a trip planned by true local experts. Our guide was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. We got to explore some lesser known (and less crowded) parks, stayed in beautiful accommodation and didn’t have to worry about anything. If you have a chance add Zanzibar to your itinerary as a magical place to relax after the safari.
    Highly recommend!

    Jairos and Vienna are very responsible tour arrangers. They respond to emails quickly and they make efforts trying to meet our requirements. Food was good the whole time and they made sure we had fruits, water, and snacks every day. Our guide Ezekial was professional and very experienced. We felt safe and secured even when the road condition was rough when it rained. We learned a lot about animals from our guide and thanks for the knowledge!

    Thanks again for arranging us such an unforgettable trip. I’m already in love with this beautiful land and will be coming back.

    I discovered Lewis, who is one of the tour operators, when I booked for a stay at Meru Hostel in Arusha. One of my dreams was seeing Ngorongoro. So I asked what can U offer me for Ngorongoro and Tarangire ? And immediately I’ve a proposal. and it was a really good proposal, so I answered right away. I really don’t regret it. We spent with my friend two wonderful days. First we went to Tarangire NP, then we spent the night not far from Ngorongoro, in a lodge, Fig Tree Lodge and Campsite, where the food and room were very good. The 2nd day, direction Ngorongoro. U can’t imagine how I was happy being in this gorgeous caldera. An experience I will never forget all my life. Our guide was so kind with us, he made everything for us and participated to this beautiful moment. We spent maybe 4 hours in the caldera.
    Lewis we also booked a excursion in a Chagga village. This tribe is living around Kilimanjaro. Their agriculture is based on ancestral organic fertilization where they mixed Bananas trees, Coffee plants and small other small plant ( sorry I don’t remember the name). With the local guide, we first go to Materuni waterfalls, on the foot of Kilimanjaro. Nice walk on a little path, between farms. Then we went back to our family’s guide, where we learned how make our coffee. For myself, who like so much coffee, it was so great. As U can read, we had such a nice experience with Glitzy Safari. Thank U so much Lewis.

    The time spent with Rama during the tour of various Safari locations including the Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Arusha national parks over the past week was beyond extraordinary!

    Rama’s vast knowledge and ability to locate various wildlife as well as comprehensively understand their patterns and habits helped us to quite easily locate even the most difficult to find and most endangered species, including the rhino (which there are only a total of 70 rhinos remaining in all of Tanzania).
    He has a special way of making sure your Safari adventure is truly unique, as his determination, drive and commitment to teaching about the wildlife and the Tanzanian culture is ever prevalent. His tireless commitment to both the wildlife and his guest, allowed us to locate many species whom are typically difficult to find (many people are generally not able to see all these unique and difficult to locate species, but with Rama, we were able to find them with ease which was truly a blessing!)

    Additionally, he also works tirelessly to ensure the comfort of all of his guests with free WiFi in the safari van & soft drinks (which many other companies don’t offer) and is flexible to accommodating your family’s request and/or needs.
    He is a truly skilled tour guide with many years of experience. Languages that he also speaks include his native tongue of Swahili, English and Italian; therefore he is very well-versed and would be an excellent tour guide for various people groups.

    Each day spent with him as our tour guide was such a treat, as we were able to deeply learn about multiple species within the Serengeti as well as learn about the people groups and tribes surrounding the Serengeti national park, including the Massi tribe. Tanzania is such a wonderful place with special people who make up this land, and having a tour guide like Rama means the world in impacting your vacation and knowledge of this beautiful country!
    Words cannot describe how grateful we are for him and we would always recommend him time and time again!

    We were on an six day trip to Tanzania with Impala Explorer. The 2 guide jeeps where Mollel and Derick. They were excellent and answered all our requests along the way. The guides were very familiar with the animals found on the safari. The hotels were excellent, which I will add to the excellent experience of the trip. Without a doubt made a taste for another trip with Impala Explorer

    We booked with Furahini Safari Adventures or a Big Five safari, and it didn’t disappoint! Our guide was an expert at finding animals, and we managed to see all five within a few days. The accommodations were luxurious, and the food was delicious. This company is well-organized, and I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for an authentic African safari experience.

    I had an amazing time. In September 2016, I actually paid to summit Mount Kilimanjaro from the Tanzania side in 7 days, but due to my wonderful crew actually finished and submitted the mountain in 6 days. Great experience!

    My family and I traveled to Tanzania from CA but did not have the full 7 days to summit Kilimanjaro. We reached out to Emmy and she arranged for a driver in a huge land cruiser to come pick us up (at a hotel near the airport she arranged) and take us and a guide to do a day hike at Kilimanjaro. It was perfect for our time and needs and the guide was awesome. Would highly recommend this company !

    Working with Big Time Adventures was absolutely fantastic. Everything was taken care of and exceeded all of my expectations. All of the guides were extremely knowledgeable and I really enjoyed going out on the excursions with them. Everyone that I worked with as throughout the entire process was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant. If you are looking at any sort of safari experience, I highly recommend working with Big Time Adventures!
