Excellent travel plan for all our Tansania itinerary both the Serengeti and other parks safari and the Zanzibar hotel booking plus all transfers.
The sales agent Amani was very flexible and made all adjustment in full compliance to our wishes.
And for the safari the very experienced driver Ashley is highly recommended.
As fully trained park ranger with a lot of knowledge about the nature and wild animals, speaking Masai language and knowing their culture, Ashley added to our safari the little extra, that made it unforgettable.
His friendly and helpful way made us come as customers and leave as friends.
Very recommended!

I had a very lovely experienced during my vacation at Tanzania . We had tour to Tarangire, Ngorongoro National park and Arusha city. I really recommend Tanzania and African Queen Adventure as your local Tour Company.

Just spent 5 days with African Queen Adventures. Travelled from the United States with a total part of 56 people as part of the Promise of Mother Africa group. African Queen took amazing care of us. We took a day trip to Mount Kilimanjaro from Arusha which included hiking. The next day we headed to Ngorongoro Crater where we saw wildlife. Our tour guide Wasari was incredibly informative and accommodating. He also had a good eye for spotting animals and making sure we had plenty of time to see them. We then headed to Serengeti National Park for the next couple of days. African Queen Adventures was very responsive even when we had changes in itinerary. For example, after getting up at 4 am to do a sunrise balloon Safari over the Serengeti, some of us wanted to head back to the lodge instead of the planned tour. African Queen provided the necessary drivers and vehicles so that those who wanted to go back to the lodge could while others could go do the planned tour. Chilled water was provided daily and we had a wonderful picnic lunch at Ngorongoro Crater while watching the animals. The tour also got all 56 of us back to the Arusha airport on time for our flight to Zanzibar.
I highly recommend this tour operator. You will not be disappointed.

This 4-day safari across the a Ngorongoro and Serengeti regions was a major highlight of my time in Tanzania. The details were well organized and professionally executed. African Queen went over and above for our group. The lodging options were all clean and well chosen. The sunset view from our room in Serengeti was simply spectacular.
We loved our tour guides- they were interactive and made the trip so much more fun! They taught us a lot about not only the animals but also the history and culture of the region. Our guide, Roger, was intentional about showing us as many animals as possible, especially the ones we told him we were personally excited to see. Not to mention teaching us a little Swahili here and there along the way.
The staff was always attentive, patient and welcoming. I traveled with a group of 14 and they willingly made various additional accommodations to ensure our experience went smoothly. So, you’ll be in good hands.
If you’re considering a safari during your time in Tanzania and looking for a budget-friendly option that doesn’t sacrifice quality, I highly recommend booking through African Queen!

We had a great one week jeep safari in Tanzania with our family of 6 organized by African Queen. The owner, Alice, was very responsive and made sure to get us the best experience. Our driver and guide Philip was a very experienced and fun guy and we felt very comfortable with him. He shared a lot of knowledge, always got us in the best position to spot wildlife and provided a fast but safe drive that never made any of us feel sick or uncomfortable. Taking into account that you spend between 6 and 12 hours in the car together on a daily basis, we felt lucky to have Philip drive us around. He told us there are perhaps as much as 6,000 safari tour operators in Tanzania, so it is a very competitive market. We were happy for the choice we made with the more boutique style approach of African Queen that offers a personalized experience. The recommendation for African Queen was made by the owner of Moivaro lodges and tented camps who provided for the unique accomodations during our trip. A very special and memorable vacation!

We did a tour with African Queen last week. They were incredible, our guide was amazing and they did everything to ensure that we had the best experience possible, including for needs outside the program such as purchasing medicines, etc.
The car was great and the hotels were fantastic. Only good things

I didn't know what to expect going into this safari, as I was going with a large group. Much to my relief, the experience with African Queen met, or even exceeded, my expectations. The drivers picked us up at our designated spot at the airport, helped us with our luggage all throughout the trip, and were very accommodating of our requests while on safari.
I was amazed to see thousands of animals along the trip, many of which we saw up close (within the safety of the vehicle). My most memorable moments were the lions and seeing a group of cheetahs playing with each other.
The lodging exceeded my expectations. One lodge where we stayed was literally in the middle of the Serengeti. I woke up to see hundreds of zebras roaming in my backyard!
I thought that my driver John was particularly accommodating of our requests and had nothing but great vibes throughout the 3.5 days journey.
10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent safari experience with a limited budget.

African Queen was absolutely amazing every step of the way! Highly recommend
We took a 4 day safari trip across the ngorongoro and Serengeti region. It was full of wonders, the wildlife sightings impressed us throughout. Our driver, Jon, was extremely cordial and went out of his way to ensure we got the best sightings.
Accommodations were beautiful and very comfortable.
Best safari experience I’ve had all around :)
