About Alaitol Safari

African Safari

The tour was great we saw a little bit of everything. The accommodations and the people were very welcoming, our favorite was land of nature. Our driver Elia was the best he made sure we saw all the animals on our list, was very informative and super helpful. Definitely an amazing experience!

Extraordinary adventure with Alaitol Safaris in Tanzania!!

We had a week on safari and then 5 nights at Zanzibar (definitely the right order to do it in), and it was amazing. Karato from Alaitol Safari picked us up in Arusha and took us to the Ngorongoro Crater, and then on to The Serengeti, and it was the most amazing 5 days. Not only is Karato very knowledgeable about safari and life in Tanzania, his own personal life story is unforgettable - we truly felt like we had become friends by the end of it - which made the experience even more special. His enthusiasm for life in infectious and made an already memorable holiday even more so. We also really liked the safety and customer care that Alaitol Safari provide - we felt like we were in great hands, not just with Karato but with the company more broadly. He was also a very safe driver, and given how much time you spend on the road, this is a very good thing! Thank you Karato and the team at Alaitol Safari.

Best family adventure with highly professional tour company

Our family of 5 (boys aged 15,13,8) had the most incredible wildlife safari with Alaitol Safaris. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and professional and the company is very clear about procedures for tipping ahead of time which is greatly appreciated. The tour guides clearly take pride in their jobs. They made us feel like family. The pop-top land cruiser was comfortable and they partner with Torrillis camps for those who want a glamping experience more in nature rather than a lodge which our family loved. Our favorite destinations were Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro crater which surprised us because we thought we would want more time in the Serengeti. We traveled at the end of November during the shoulder season but still saw the big 5 and witnessed the wildebeest migration. It was very rainy in the Serengeti and multiple companies had cars that got stuck. We were very grateful to be with a company that had multiple cars in the reserve at the same time to help each other - some small companies were stuck for 12 hours or more - basically lost the whole day of sight seeing- and were still waiting when we left after trying unsuccessfully to help them. In addition we were able to customize our trip to include transportation to Dodoma as we couldn’t find flights that coordinated with our schedule. Mary was fantastic to work with and the trip was one of the best ever adventures for our pretty adventurous family.

Safari trip so exceeded our expectations

We were novices but should not have worried. Our entire package was so well organized. Everything possible for our success in seeing animals and birds happened flawlessly. Our guide, Onesmo, answered every question about animals, birds and plants with in-depth knowledge and enthusiasm for his teaching role. Lodges were comfortable. Food amazing. How do they do that in such remote spaces? Everything happened on time and at the highest standard.

African safari from a NY’er view

I had a memorable experience with Alaitol Safaris . I really didn’t know what to expect considering I didn’t plan this and just had my friends do all the planning. Went on a 5 days safari with our guide Geofry. First, he’s an amazing man. He’s kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about the animals, environment and local people. He knew how to navigate without GPS. Secondly, I felt safe and trusted him. His English was great. We had amazing conversation in the car. The time went by so quick. Geofry, come to NYC so I can share the same hospitality! He drove strategically through the safari and bumpy roads without any of us being injured or road sick. Driving through the safari was no easy task. Roads are uneven, unpaved, and muddy but Geofry did a great job driving through it all. I got bit by a fly and he pulled over to see the fly and check if we were ok. Lions king adventure linked us with an amazing stay at several places such as Puzuri inn, Eileen’s tree house and my favorite Land of Nature campsite. We noticed that during our trip we had warm cooked meals instead of cold dry lunch boxes like other safari travelers. That’s one of the perks of booking with Alaitol Safaris. The car was cleaned each time we set out for a new safari. The car was equipped with cold refreshments. This has been one of the most memorable experience i have ever had. My friend told me we booked through Alaitol Safaris because they were the quickest ones to respond back to an inquiry unlike the others. Thank you Alaitol Safaris for an amazing, and safe experience.

Amazing experience

Our honeymoon first-stop trip was absolutely amazing. We've seen a huge amount of animals and all the members of the big five. Our guide (Freddy) was incredible, really kind and professionnal. He knows the animals, the bahaviour and sees stuff what others can't see. I highly recommand this company with Freddy as guide.

Unforgettable African Safari

Must book with Alaitol Safaris We went to Tanzania for our first African safari, and we truly enjoyed our time because of Alaitol Safaris expertise in planning this trip with us as well as because of our marvelous guide Joseph. When we were trying to decide who to trust our safari trip planning, we had so many companies to choose from. Our friends had recommended Alaitol Safaris from their own successful trip and we’re glad we listened to them! What sets this Alaitol Safaris apart is that they are located within Tanzania, have been established for many years, allow for private tours, and as we look through the reviews, their prior customers have all written excellent reviews. We were able to select a package that fit within our budget and customize accommodations based on what we were looking for out of our trip. Our domestic flights were arranged by Alaitol Safaris and the timing was calculated and precise. Our Safari adventures consisted of visiting Serengeti national park, Ngorongoro crater national park, and Tarangire national park. We were able to see the big five with our fantastic guide Joseph, who was extremely knowledgeable about the fauna and flora and he was also experienced in knowing where to drive to get the best angle for viewing the animals. One time he was the first to spot a rhino mother and baby in the distance before other tour vans arrived. Another time, he convinced us to stay to watch a lioness who appeared to be lounging in the shade but unexpectedly (to us), she started chasing her prey during a spontaneous hunt. He somehow knew that this was going to happen and gave us a great perspective to watch. He also was very flexible and timely, and spoke with us each afternoon about how to plan the next days safari tour. We loved Joseph! Look no further and book with Alaitol Safaris!

Outstanding from Start to Finish

We are so happy we chose Alaitol Safaris for our trip! Hussein was our guide who was VERY professional, knowledgable, answered all our questions, and made sure we had the best time! He helped other guides, he knew all the lodges, and he advocated for us at every hotel/lodge we stayed at. He made sure we got to see as many wildlife as possible. He has 11 years of experience and he is fluent in English. The pick up and drop off from the airport was seamless. We got to visit 3 different NPs. Pre Tour communication was excellent, Jane let us choose our own lodging and were flexible about frequent changes to our plans. We enjoyed choosing our own lodging. The jeeps were comfortable and very clean. I thank Alaitol Safaris team for the great service, We hope to return to Tanzania in the future still under your service.

WOW!

We are very glad that we booked the 7-day safari with Alaitol Safaris. Our guide, Emanuel, was an expert in flora and fauna. He was funny and always shared his experience and knowledge with us. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see all the animals we had hoped for—even some that are quite rare. We highly recommend Alaitol Safaris and our guide, Immanuel!

Life time experience

We did a Safari, including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. Accomodations were, Mawe Mawe Manyara Lodge, Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge and Signatute Serengeti Luxury Tented Safari Camp. Our Safari Guide/Driver/Wilderness Specialist was Goodluck. With his vast experience in the wilderness of those different parks we were able to experience the true wonders of this precious place of wildlife in the heart of africa. Mr. Goodluck was able to anticipate the behaviour of the animals. So for example at one point in the serengeti we were watching very closely a pack of lions. Suddenly we were leaving the site because he spotted close by a male lion sitting on one of famous rock formations, on top of a kopjes- hill. The first minutes we were there just by ourselves enjoying this truly iconic moment of this male lion sitting on this rock. In Situations like that we were able to experience the true magic of the Serengeti, because of the great skills which Mr. Goodluck possesses. We were able to see many animals, including baby cheetas. About the accomodations, we liked especially Mawe Mawe and the Signature Camp. All in all it was a once in a lifetime experience! Special Thanks to Alaitol Safaris!

Perfect

Unforgettable Experience

Jambo Jambo Tanzania Alaitol Safaris is a top notch organization that prides itself on providing personalized tours. My sister and I had a private driver (Shaban) each day he asked us what animals we were most expecting to see based on our requests he delivered (with the exception of the elusive rhino) lol. I can’t say enough about the wonderful safari experience and the memories that will last a life time. If you’re thinking of booking a tour don’t forget to book the hot air balloon experience; seeing the migration from the air is an excellent way to end your adventure.

Above and Beyond Our Expectations!

Alaitol Safaris made our travels throughout Tanzania's National Parks a truly outstanding experience! Their knowledge, professionalism, organization/logistics, friendliness, care and respect, not only for their clients but also the wildlife and nature during our recent 10-day tour were absolutely outstanding! Our safari took us to Tanangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Ndutu and Serengeti National Parks; all rich with wildlife and scenery. Baraza, our guide, was particularly knowledgeable, attentive, kind and an excellent driver; we very much enjoyed our bicycling excursion and meeting the people of his native town of Mtowambu, near Lake Manyara. We very much appreciated the kindness and hospitality of the Tanzanian people! We found Alaitol Safaris' guides, vehicles, lodges, meals, excursions and overall travels to be exceptional. My wife and I had a wonderful and memorable experience that we will always cherish and treasure in our minds and hearts!

Exceptional Tour service and Guide

A brilliant holiday made even better by Alaitol Safaris exceptional commitment to providing the best possible service. Thanks to Musa for his experience, knowledge and commitment to making it a perfect holiday. Thanks also for helping us navigate Dar Airport. Assante.

Unforgettable Safari experience!

Our safari was amazing. The crew of Alaitol Safari were very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. They thought of and provided for every little detail. The food and the accommodations were incredible. Our group had also beach holiday with this company.

Excellent experience!

Alaitol Safaris is an excellent company!! We booked a private safari tour including Zanzibar with mid -luxury lodging with my friends and husband. They took care of everything for us including food, accommodations, and transportation. The communication between the company and I via email at that was so easy and fast. They accommodated for everything we requested and told us the prices up front. From the sales staff Mary to the logistics staff Peninna made me feel at ease and answered every question I had. There is no doubt they are a reputable company. Then to meeting our guide Abel he is such a kind, friendly, honest, and knowledgeable person it felt comfortable for my friends and I to open up to him and it felt like he was just one of our friends. We actually came to Tanzania to celebrate my birthday and Abel came through with an awesome surprise with a cake made for me out in the bush in the middle of the serengeti!! It made my birthday so special. 5 ⭐️ all around.

Great experience

We had an amazing trip to Tanzania! The customer service from Rose was exceptional – she was incredibly helpful, answering all our questions before the trip, and even tracked our luggage when it was delayed. We’re very grateful for her assistance. Our guide, Elia, was knowledgeable and experienced, which made our journey enjoyable and smooth. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we are very satisfied with the entire trip!

Unforgettable Safari Experience. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing 8-day safari in Tanzania with Alaitol Safaris! From the day hike at Kilimanjaro to the 6-day safari through different national parks, everything was perfectly organised. Our guide Baraza was exceptional. He answered all our questions with patience and was incredibly flexible and easygoing.Thanks to his expertise, we saw all the animals we hoped to see, and even more! The lodges and camps were beautiful and clean.Special note for the Intimate Camp Seronera, a beautiful place in the middle of the Serengeti National park. We also enjoyed well cooked delicious lunches provided during the long hours out in the parks. Overall, it was a magnificent trip, with everything perfectly arranged.

Beyond Expectations

My expectations were high as I had taken a safari with Alaitol Safari Travel in 2016. Four of us wished to return to Northern Tanzania again. Alaitol superb staff worked with us, fall 2019, to create an itinerary that combined our wishes with their suggestions. By March, the dates for our trip slipped into the window between the beginnings of Corvid-19 travel restrictions and the eventual end to free travel movement. Our safari went ahead, and it was a glorious adventure. All plans went as scheduled. The superb staff at every camp and lodge went beyond expectations. Our driver/guides expertly got us through all the muddy roads (the early rains had never stopped). It was exhilarating! Their knowledge and experience was extraordinary. We managed in 14 days to see so many animals and birds, landscapes, sunset and sunrises to give us all memories for a lifetime of remembering. With the difficulties that arrived by March 23rd, our departure, Alaitol's staff was always there to help us get through it. My LAST thought is that we should all try to make plans now for when travel becomes possible again. Plan ahead and work with Alaitol Safari to design a safari in Northern Tanzania. The tourism industry and the thousands of people, families, and industries that it supports needs our support. The animals also need us there, as our presence helps to deter poaching! I am now saving money so I can go again when possible.
