    I contacted the agency and literally could book a 5 day safari the day after. More then that they helped me with tons of information (&connections) to fix accommodations, transport, flight, etc. The price for safari is affordable and fair (given that the entrance fees to the parks are very high). All & all i was really lucky choosing Adventure Makers

    Stephen (the owner/operator) was so easy to book with and he answered all our questions very promptly. He even met us at our hotel when we arrived and again on the last day before our departure which was very nice and personable. Kiaka was our tour guide for a 5 day safari. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro. Kiaka was soft spoken, so kind, very patient and so so knowledgable. We joked that he had magic because we would tell Kiaka what animals we wanted to see and he would go find them. I would highly recommend booking a safari with Adventure Makers Tanzania. I hope to go on another safari and I plan to book with Adventure Makers again.
