For anyone considering Tanzanian tour companies for safari and/or Zanzibar, you cannot go wrong with booking Detasa Tours. Look them up at detasa.com. I was traveling with a girlfriend for the first time in Africa and had no idea where to begin so started reading reviews on Trip Advisor. Detasa came up again and again with great reviews so I...

We arrived in Arusha for our 10 day safari which included the Serengeti, Lake Manyara National Park, Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. Saw many animals especially in the Crater. You don't want to miss seeing the Crater which is 2,000 ft deep and covers 102 sf miles and is a constant water source for the animals. The highlight... More

I done back-packing in the past and wanted to organise our trip myself in Tanzania as well but soon realised that a local travel agent is essential in this country. After collecting many offers we decided to go with Mataro from Introducing Africa Co. Mataro was really helpful and flexible to our changing request (although our ideas developed as well)... More

We booked a 10 day safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Introducing Africa based in Arusha. Mr Mataro was quick to reply to emails from overseas and helped us set up our ideal itinerary, making adjustments from the usual circuits. We were met in Nairobi airport, taken to a good hotel, then sent off in the morning to Masai Mara... More

We visited in August, and got in touch with Mataro four weeks before. He was helpful, prompt (answering emails within hours), and flexible - we needed something much cheaper than his initial quotation. The result was a great three-day safari taking in three different locations, where we saw lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, hippos - all really close up. The guide... More

We have just returned from an amazing 3 week trip to Tanzania. We decided to visit some of the lesser known, more remote Parks: Katavi, Mahale, Gombe, Selous and Ruaha. This required a considerable amount of planning on the part of our tour operator Mataro Kisiri the director of Introducing Africa (based in Arusha, TZ) as it involved several charter... More

We arranged a private tour through Kenya and Tanzania in July 2011 with Introducing Africa. We were completely ignorant of the local travel market beforehand, and chose Introducing Africa as they were quick to respond to all our inquiries, the most flexible in terms of our itinerary, and very competitively priced especially for a private tour (certainly much cheaper than...
