Excellent safari! - We went to Tanzania with Tour Compass, but the safari was arranged locally with Zara Tours who were excellent. Our own tour guide (Michael M) was a superb guide, and he had a phenomenal knowledge of both the animals and birds. He was happy to drive us anywhere we wanted, but we tended to let him decide as he knew where the best places were for sightings, both in the Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro crater. He was great company too, and a brilliant driver/mechanic, who not only took care of us, but was also able to get us out of some serious holes (literally!), as the terrain was still pretty wet and muddy after the rains.

Must Return For A Longer Visit - This trip must be repeated as soon as our budget and time allows. We had come to Tanzania for a family visit, then decided to go on a safari. Hamisi was quick to come up with a good itinerary within a very short time, then worked his magic and got us accommodations to very nice lodges. Melkiot guided us in the parks and he is exceptional. We managed to see all the big 5 - we saw the rhino and leopard in Ngorongoro Crater, plus many other animals. The trip was enjoyable because Melkiot drove very responsibly, struck great conversation as the taught us about the animals and the ecosystem that live in. We still managed to visit the Hadzabe Bushmen and they are the most gracious people I have ever met. I am in love with Tanzania and we will return soon for a longer visit. There is so much experience.

Just Great Safari Adventure - We had the most wonderful time with Tarimo our guide from Zara Tours. We visited three great parks namely; Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater. We enjoyed exploring each park with the expert guide savoring different sights. We had the spacious safari vehicle just for us and Tarimo pushed it to all the corners of the parks, we saw many different animals. I have so many photos from all the days in the bush. Accoms were well thought out, conveniently located within/close to the parks. We loved Ngorongoro WildCamp the best for its magical location. I will recomend Zara Tours to all my friends.

Amazing guide Godfred - We came home from an amazing trip to Tanzania in January with a prebooked package with Zara Tours. Our guide named Godfred was the best guide you could ever ask for - knew a lot of knowledge, but with an amazing situational awareess of when to initiatie conversation and not. He had really good energy and was amazing at spotting the animals while stile being an excellent driver that always made us feel safe. We saw the Big Five thanks to Godfred and had an amazing overnight stay in the Bush Camp in Seregentti, where we also got a scare by meeting lions in the evening. The food was amazing in Serengetti. Once in a lifetime experience for us!

Awesome! - The Safari was unforgetable. We visited Tarangire national park and Manyara national park. Our guide was perfect! He could speak fluent english and german and tried to show us the best out of fauna and flora in Africa. He even found the lion which is really not easy. Thank you!

Nice guides, made the experience fantastic - All well organised, Zara Tour is not improvising anything. Hotels might require to be renovated… sometime not at the level expected from the price. We were in a private car for two, with guides Jospeh (driving) and Nickson (speaking French). They made this Safari fantastic, providing best view to the animals as well as the landscape. They are knowlegeable on so many details that supported us to learn and understand more than with books.
