Christina H2025-02-23Verified Unforgettable in every way! The trip was an event of a lifetime. The moment we stepped off the plane in Arusha and met Macha I knew we were in for a treat. He is warm, funny, knowledgeable, an ambassador for the environment, and will go above and beyond to ensure each day exceeds your expectations. The highlights include-warm lunches, a nimal facts-he actually knows everything, adjusting the schedule based on desires and needs, and providing an environmentally safe and ethical way to see animals in their natural habitats. Every day brought something new and magical. If you’re on the fence-get off and make the deposit to go! 8 days-4 parks-hundreds of animals and a lifetime of memories! You know it’s been done properly when you cry leaving your guide!! Ally H2025-02-23Verified The most magical trip I had the most unforgettable experience with my family on our safari tour with Macha. From the moment we met, it was clear that his passion and expertise for wildlife and the Tanzanian culture was unparalleled. He shares his deep knowledge of the animals, the ecosystem, and the history of the area which made each moment more captivating. We learned so much, not just about the wildlife itself but about the rich culture and traditions of the community. What stood out most was how thoughtful and intentional his is. Macha made sure everyone felt comfortable, safe, and fully immersed in the magical experience. His community within and out of the parks ensures that you see , appreciate , and capture all that the area offers. I’ve traveled a lot, but this trip truly stands out into. What starts as a holiday safari transpires into a life-changing experience. I will never not stop talking about our experience - Could not recommend more! Conny K2022-07-17Verified Dream come true - the great migration I always wanted to see the huge amount of wildebeests with their new borns in the Serengeti and finally I did – what a wonderful and unique experience. No one really can imagine this nature spectacle if you weren't there yourself. Three days we spent in the Ndutu area with beautiful scenery and endless wildebeests. Macha our guide made it possible to witness this exceptional event with huge knowledge and very conscientious he guided us to one of the hotspots of the great migration. Luisa - Christi... K2022-07-17Verified Best safari adventure ever! It was such an incredible adventure! We did a five day safari starting in Tarangire NP to Serengeti, Ndutu and Ngorogoro crater. We saw so many animals it was like driving through a documentation, a dream come true.Our Guide Macha is the best safari guide you can have! He has such a huge knowledge and knows the perfect spots! Very kind, funny and always keen to make it the perfect experience for his guests but also always aware of nature. He also has a huge interest in photography and makes sure to get the best picture. The company in general is very aware of what the animal and nature require in order to keep the balance between educating people and protecting the environment. Very big recommendation to do a safari with Mambeu – I can't wait for the next time!!:) Laurie K2022-06-05Verified My dream safari in Tanzania! Being able to get so close to the wildlife, hunting with the Bushmen, the exceptional hospitality, and how knowledgeable the guides were in finding the wildlife and answering my many questions. The guide and driver did their very best to show me as much wildlife as possible and to experience true African culture. I got to see the big five in the first 3 days of my trip! I got to dance with the Maasai, help grind corn with another tribe and watch them melt metal over an open fire to make jewelry and arrow heads.Experienced the best snorkeling in the Indian Ocean off the beautiful beaches of Zanzibar. Saw 100 year old tortoises at the sanctuary , toured historic Stone Town with a terrific guide.From the time I was picked up at the airport I was treated like a queen, with the driver and guide always accommodating my needs and wishes , with a smile. This trip delivered way beyond my expectations.
