Best Holiday Ever!!! My brother and I decided to go on a 10-day safari in Tanzania. From a large number of tour operators, we picked Professional Safari Africa. We could not have picked a better tour operator! The communication with Jesca and Medison was fast and flexible, both on email and WhatsApp. They created several itineraries for us that reflected our interests and preferences. One was better than the other. However, after agreeing on the itinerary and making the payment, the itinerary proved flexible, and we were able to make additional adjustments to our requirements. The safari was super organized. Professional Safari Africa took care of all permits and park entrances in advance, so we didn't have to wait long at any gate. They provided us with great accommodation throughout the Safari. Jesca and Medison always made sure everything was fine and were willing to help and assist at any time. Our guide, Anthon, was a fully qualified expert on animal behavior, an excellent driver, and a great and funny companion on our vacation. He gave us a perfect explanation of all the animals and nature. Thanks to his skills, the whole safari was super and safe. He should be covered in gold! On a scale of 1 to 10, he would get an 11. Every day, he planned a great program, and we always ate a delicious lunch from our lunch boxes somewhere in the middle of the beautiful African nature. After many years of experience, Anthon always knew where to find which animals. We saw the BIG FIVE! Thanks to Anthon, we saw everything we wanted to see and even more, which far exceeded our expectations! He was always in the right place at the right time for us to see extraordinary things! He always took us to the most interesting places! Anthon maintained the car perfectly and washed it every day, so the next morning the car was sparkling clean, as if it were new! If you travel with Anthon, be sure to give him a good tip! He works hard to make your stay unforgettable! In a nutshell, the whole vacation was like a dream, especially thanks to Anthon, Jesca, Medison, and Professional Safari Africa. Professional Safari Africa is the best! THANK YOU! Aleš & Martin Valášek

This was hands down the best experience of our lives. Medison and our guide Jona made sure we had the most incredible time. Medison was great with communication in planning the trip and answered all questions we had. Jona was the best tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. We are so grateful to have made a forever rafiki!

Hard to fault the experience. Excellent itinerary. Only slight criticism was that first day on safari (Arusha-Tarangire-Lake Manyara Serena Lodge seemed very long. Maybe an overnight stop near Tarangire would have worked better. Could also have spent a full day in Ngorongoro Crater and returned to Arusha the following day for flight to Zanzibar. Anton our safari guide was tremendous - very knowledgeable and an extremely safe driver. We would have missed 80% of the wildlife without him. Always willing to help and to explain the environment. Overall organisation was flawless. Everything worked and transfers all were on schedule. Safari vehicle did all that was required and seemed very reliable
