Absolutely Phenomenal! - Wow! Just Wow. This is the best safari we have ever been on as a couple. The trip was amazingly beautiful, taking us deep into the parks where explored and the far flung sections of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, away from the crowds. This trip reminded me of my first trip to Africa as a child. Our guide Temba was so lovely, he made the experience so wonderful with dedication, passion and attention. He deserves all the appreciation he's getting and much more because he went out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable, safe as ge traversed the parks. He was able to find numerous animals and was patient to let us soak up all that we could from an encounter. There were many highlights during the trip, like the lucky buffalo hunt in Serengeti by a pride not far from where we were. It was Temba who stopped the Jeep and pointed us to the hunt taking place. Time seemed to stand still as the lions made brought down the buffalo. The mix of lodges and tented camps worked well for us. Coming back to great food and comfortable beds in a great setting made it amazing! Thank you Temba and the entire Migration Africa Team for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime!

Our 6 day experience in Tanzania - This was a dream vacation for us and we were very much looking forward to these 6 days of adventure. I must say that the highlight for this trip was our guide Peter which really became a friend during these day and also the contact between us and him remain. He tried more than his best to show us everything we could possibly see with days full of game drives. He also explained animal behaviours and gave us a great insight of what we were actually seeing. My husband also had his birthday during this trip and our guide arranged with our accommodation to prepare a cake as a surprise, without us requesting this, which was a really nice gesture from him. We would highly recommend to have the 6 day 5 night adventure with Migration Venture and to request for Peter as a guide (as mentioned he is a 🌟). The only suggestion that I would make is that you will make sure that you have enough Dollars and of the right year (as some dollars are not accepted) prior to leaving your country as it is IMPOSSIBLE to get dollars in Tanzania and cause of this you will have to pay the company more due to the exchange rate. Once again I would like to Thank Peter our Guide for such an amazing experience!

Deniz mlay AKA NJOFU - der Safari Experte! - The very best safari guide I had the pleasure of experiencing was Deniz Mlay, also known as NJOFU. This man knows exactly what he's doing. Not only does he speak excellent English and have extensive knowledge of Tanzania, but he is also respectful and goes out of his way to satisfy his guests. Let me start from the beginning. He first gave us a brief overview to refresh our understanding of the upcoming safari. Then we set off, and during the drive, there were always pleasant conversations, and we learned a lot about the country and the locals. Once on the safari, Deniz Mlay was right at home; he knew the area better than anyone else. He was not only a superb driver but also knew every shortcut and route. He was familiar with the staff at the park entrances, which allowed us more time to see animals in the national parks since he helped us get ahead of others. Deniz Mlay also has an incredibly extensive knowledge of the animals and the nature there. He could answer every question. We saw almost all the animals you could hope to see—INCLUDING A RHINO! Even after the safari, he remained helpful, doing everything to meet our needs. For instance, when we wanted to buy souvenirs, he took us to the local museum to ensure we didn't overpay. I can only recommend this safari guide/ expert and would gladly go on another safari with Deniz Mlay NJOFU anytime!
