We have nothing but smiles when we think about our safari with Friends of Africa Family Safaris.
From the beginning with the creation of our itinerary in a very tight budget (they did everything so we could see what we wanted and in order for the budget to fit what we could), quick response and great chats.
Once we arrived everything was set up for us and they picked us up for a 4 day safari trip through Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti.
The guide Manuel was very knowledgeable and made us see amazing scenery, all the animals we could hope for (and more), we were traveling with friends and children and it will be a memorable trip for us all !! Thanks a lot for everything !!

It is rare to find such family oriented company that want to do the best for their client and not only make money out of us ! I recommend this company with no hesitation they will not disappoint !

Thank you to the team at Friends of Africa Family Safaris. They were hands-on and meticulous in organizing an incredible Safari for me to Northern Serengeti just in time for the annual Mara Migration crossings. From the initial conversation to customizing the experience, coordinating with the camps and lodges, and in suggesting alternative travel and logistics options, they made the entire experience seamless and memorable.

We had a beautiful 7 day-safari tour (Lake Manyara, Ngolo ngolo, Serengeti) with our guide Emmanuel who shared his huge knowledge with us. We learned so much about the country, its people, traditions and nature. We had very interesting conversations at dinner and always laughed a lot! We were lucky to see a lot of animals and most of them within zero distance! This trip was just perfect and we will recommend Friends of Africa Family Safaris organization to our family and friends.

We booked the 7day Machame Route and a 5days Safari with Friends of Africa and Mataro responded very quickly to my emails and answered all my questions. From the airport pickup until I left again everything was organised perfectly. On the mountain our guides Josiah and Elia were very experienced and made sure we made it to the summit. After the Kilimanjaro hike we went on an Safari with Emmanuel our guide and Apolo the cook who made sure we got vegetarian food. They took very good care of Us and we had a good time they even taught us some swahili words. Emmanuel knows a lot about the animals and explained to us everything. He is also a great photographer, We really enjoyed our time in Tanzania with Friends of Africa and We will recommend them to all our friends.

Friends of Africa arranged a 7 day safari for Us, visiting Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire . This was our first visit to Africa and it couldn't have been better. The lodges (Lake Manyara Serena, Serengeti Heritage Tented Camp and Tloma Mountain Lodge) were all excellent accommodations with very good food. Although we anticipated seeing a variety of animals, we were overwhelmed not only with the variety including the big 5 but also the numbers. I would definitely recommend them. They did a superb job and created lifetime memories.

We had an amazing safari with Friends of Africa. We enjoyed a trip from Mwanza, through The Serengeti. Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire to Arusha, full of lovely lodges, amazing nature from tent camps, the big five, the big migration and our guide Daudi could tell us a lot about both animals and plants. He was a very good guide, very skilled, and knowing when to tell a story and engage in a conversation. We were very much included in the planning of the trip, which was adjusted to our specific wishes.
Furthermore, the car was well equipped - the good binocular did a big difference.
The only thing that was a bit confusing was the tips. Even though the agreement stated that tips where paid, it seemed like the people at the accommodation still expected tips.
But as was the only concern, i must give my warm recommendation to use Friends of Africa Family Safaris!

We traveled to Tanzania for work and had 4 free days. We decided to go on a safari from Mwanza to Arusha through Serengeti, Ngoro Ngoro, despite people saying that it would not be worth it if we wanted to see anything exotic. They were wrong! Our guide made sure we saw everything we asked for-- including lions, many, many, many Wildebeests, Cheetah. He was extremely friendly and humorous. I would recommend Friends of Africa Family Safaris to anyone and everyone.

We booked a hiking trip to reach the top of Mt Meru. The whole process was one of the most professional ones I've experienced in Africa. We had proper meetings before the trip, to make sure everything would go smoothly. And it sure did!
The whole team of porters, chef, ranger and our guide were all super friendly and good at their jobs. We felt taken good care of, and had good fun with the crew during the whole trip.

I went with Babaluu for a three day hike to the top of Mt. Meru. He is a very experienced guide, and we felt very well looked after by the whole team the whole trip. The overall experience was amazing, and the company is very professional. I would definitely recommend to others.

Mataro put together an outstanding trip to Mikumi, Ruaha and Udzungwa Mountains. Pre-trip information was great, with Mataro responsive to my emails and providing preparation requirements information.
This safari off the beaten path away from the crowds was amazing. We were with Emmanuel who made the trip fun and very fulfilling. He has a very keen eye that we saw lions, buffaloes, zebras, crocodiles, giraffes, monkeys, elephants, zebras and many different bird species.
We stayed in great places that had great food and service.
Friends of Africa comes highly recommended
