 Trustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Hicimos el safari con el “capitan” Evans y la “Black Mamba” Zuberi. La verdad que nos sentimos muy a gusto con los dos, y al final es una parte fundamental en tu viaje (no dudéis en pedirlos como guías).
Vimos todos los animales que había en Tanzania y nos ayudaron siempre que lo necesitamos.
Enhorabuena por la disponibilidad de Cornelius en la organizacion y resolución de dudas!!
Tuvimos problemas con el vehiculo pero no nos afectó en nada de lo que teniamos planeado y se disculparon desde el primer momento. Hemos viajado mucho, y este es uno de los mejores viajes que hemos hecho.
Cuidado con la Black mamba, nunca sabes cuando te morderá!😛
Asante sana!!

Viajé solo, tuve un pequeño problema de coordinación el primer día pero la compañía logró resolverlo y se mantuvo muy atenta en todo momento. Recomiendo sin dudas Sadari África United por su amabilidad y trato familiar. Gracias a Cornelius especialmente. Saludos de Argentina!

 Trustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. The trip of a life time! My partner and I chose Safari Africa United for our 8 day mid range private safari and it was beyond our expectations. Safari Africa United is a locally owned company which I think really sets them apart from the big ones in delivering a more personalized experience. Cornelius (the owner of the company) delivered everything that our package outlined and more. He was also very responsive and flexible when we were a bit late getting into Arusha, as well as very prompt in emailing me back when I was booking the experience. Our guide was Laurian and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the animals, tribes and culture of Tanzania, and the diverse landscapes. Laurian was also a safe driver (super important on the dirt roads/ rough terrain of the Serengeti). We saw so many animals every day- way more than expected including the big five as well as The Great Migration and so many more. The accommodations were exactly as promised and all the staff were very hospitable and friendly as well. Laurian and Cornelius both delivered an amazing experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.

They met us at the airport and accompanied us for 6 days. We felt very well looked after and protected. They knew the terrain very well and we saw a lot of animals. We had a driver and a guide and at all times we could choose different plans or routes, adapting 100% to our needs. I recommend you to choose this company.
Thank you for this amazing holiday.

Quería un safari, y prolongación en Zanzibar, hablé con Cornelius, lo organizo todo a mi gusto y a un precio asequible.  Un equipo humano dedicado a crear experiencias inolvidables, tanto Cornelius como Richard, Evans y Pepe.

 Trustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. February 01 to  8th ,2024. We planned our Tanzania Safari 5 months in advance. Cornelius and his team was able to answer all of our questions . Within a reasonable time  despite the time difference of 8 hours. He was always available   to inform us 24 7 on choices of  itinerary suggestions of the best places to visit . The logistics were very well organized  with respect to flight arrangements (Nairobi, Tanzania), the choice of camps  , accommodations (Safari), and Hotels (Zanzibar). We spent half a day visiting the Olduvai Gorge Museum.  We spent 4  days on Safari . in Serengeti, Ndutu, ,Ngorongoro ,Tarangire and 4 days in Zanzibar. The Guides were very knowledgeable and respectful of our needs.
The Safari surpassed our expectations. Lorian and Elias  were professional guides . We recommend  Africa Safari United for you're next Safari.
We had a fantastic trip.

Cornelius was amazing throughout the planning and scheduling phase, always replying within minutes. He was very thorough when providing information on the parks and local information, and went out of his way to ensure our itinerary met all of our expectations.

We were then blessed to have a fantastic guide named Mike, who made our safari enjoyable, clearly detailing incredible facts about every species we came across, as well as explaining local cultural customs.

There are many safari operators out there, but after comparing notes with other travelers we met, I have no doubt that Safaris Africa United offer the best experience on the market!
