We contact Marko Mtui from African Traces about a month and a half before our trip to Tanzania in order to book ourself a safari trip. Marko was very communicative and answered all our questions and wonderings. We checked a few Safari operators in Tanzania and decided to go with African Traces (which had the best "value for money" proposal and a lot of great reviews), and we couldn't choose better! From the moment we land in the Kilimanjaro airport Marko and his team helped us in everything we needed - took us to ATM whenever we needed, helped us get ourselves a local Sim, arrange great day trips and book us the accommodation in Moshi (in a lower price than we saw online). We went on a 6 days safari trip which was tailored made to our preferences and the sighting we wish to see (and we saw!!). The Safari was an amazing experience and meet all our expectations and more. All 6 days were well organized and everything worked according to the plan we had, we got to visit 4 national parks and saw a wide variety of animals. the accommodations were great and were chosen to meet our budget, the vehicle was in great shape, spacious and well equipment. While we were in the Safari Marko kept in touch with us and made sure everything is ok. Daniel, our guide, was very knowledgeable and we were constantly amazed by the amount of knowledge he has about the wildlife. Daniel is great with spotting wildlife and forecasting the scenario, which lead us to view some amazing sightings. We were very pleased to have him as our guide, and he was constantly interested in what we would like to see and accommodate the Game Drive accordingly. We were also lucky to see the great migration while the herds of wildebeest crossed the Mara river (more than once!!) and it was a lot thanks to Daniel's patience and familiarity of the place. I highly recommend using African Traces as your Safari operator. You won't regret it!
