Woderful and super kind
Anna and her daughter Juliana
Was super kind
Before safari tour
She lent me a pillow and a
telescope for free and gave me a full refund when the hot air balloon tour I booked was canceled due to the weather
They also took me to the airport for free, moreover Juliana take me stop by the African art gallery and explain the whole things about the gallery
When the middle of going to the airport
I'm sorry I couldn't share a meal with them
If my friend is going to book a safari tour in Tanzania, I would 100% recommend here
Anna and Juliana must be angels from the Heaven
They made us feel at home and very especial
The communication was quick and effective. They answer any question and give us excelent advice.
The service was beyond expectations, the took care every minute we were with them.
Transfers, accommodation and food, excellent.
The safari itself was the best I ever had. Serengeti, tarangire are not to be missed.
Thank you Anna and Juliana for such a great experience.
We saw all kind of animals in great abundance and all the time.

Comprehensive service that felt like family
I really felt like Anna and her little company treated us like royalty for our 4 day safari. They made sure we were taken care of and comfortable in every way on the safari. in addition, the days we spent in Arusha and they drove us around giving us tours without any charge. Her prices were extremely fair. She connected us with an excellent driver who showed us the best of the Serengeti and was truly an expert. Lovely family business!

An unforgettable and wonderful journey
Anna gave us the best service. She cared about how we felt every day and helped us solve many problems. She and her daughter Julia made our trip to Tanzania Perfect.
We booked Kilimanjaro Trekking and Safari at Porcupine Expeditions. The Kilimanjaro team was really great and helped us get to the top, and I really appreciate them! During Safari, we saw a lot of animals.
I'm so glad I chose Anna. She gave me an incredible experience!

Great experience!!!
We booked 5-day safari drive with Porcupine in Tanzania. We had an amazing experience in the wild. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Highlands and the Crater. The wildlife throughout the trip was explendid.
In our trip, Anna was so friendly and helpful through the whole planning process. She gave different recommendations and was always available for questions. Arriving in Arusha and being took cared by Anna felt like we were visiting a friend in Tanzania. Her daughter and all the staff at the hotel and restaurant were so nice. Our guide Bakari was so helpful. We really felt like we had the greatest experience in our life.

Amazing experience and super super staff!
I didn't know Porcupine expeditions,
it was recommended to me by an Italian person but I must say that I couldn't find anything better.
I did the 5-day safari with them,
trekking Monte ol Donyo Lengai and the day in Moshi (materuni-coffee plantation-chemka )and it was amazing.
Anna is a force of nature, she helped me on my journey, welcomed and treated me as if I were her son.
His daughters Juliana and Kibena treated me like family!
Also their guide David, very knowledgeable and friendly, like all the staff!
I'm sure I'll come back to visit them.
Thanks again for everything! You are very special people and super staff!

Very kind mama and her staff
I chose Porcupine because the price was cheaper than other tour companies, but their service was the best.
When we exchanged e-mails, Mama Anna answered the questions well. She welcomed me when I arrived, and served me meals and drinks before and after the tour, so I didn't have to spend extra money.
Her daughter Abigail gave me Arusha Town tour before the safari. She was also as kind as her mother and the tour was quite interesting.
Even the safari driver Jonas was kind enough to take all the questions from the talkative group member, and he tried very hard to find leopards and cheetahs for us.
Among Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, Ngorongoro was the best because of its temperature and atmosphere. But I recommend visiting all three places.
I didn't expect to receive such hospitality from the other side of the world. So I will recommend this company to my friends as well.

A professional safari manager.
1,Attentive
Based on my safari requirements, a detailed plan was provided. During the process, the plan was repeatedly communicated and revised many times with very timely responses, demonstrating strong professional service capabilities.
2,Reliable
For money-related matters such as paying deposits and booking hotels, clear proof was always provided. Additionally, if the safari route needed adjustment due to external factors like the rainy season, we were informed in advance, giving us a strong sense of security.
3,Considerate
Anna maintained online communication throughout our safari, checking on our progress and experience. She even met with us in person after the safari and provided transportation in Arusha. It was truly thoughtful and considerate.

Great safari
I had a very good safari with porcupine tours!
They customised the safari for me to add an extra day at lake Manyara into the 5 day tour and the communication and value was great.
The tour itself was incredible and I saw so many mammals, plants and birds over the six days! The driver was very good at navigating the wet season tracks in the park. An incredible experience. The food the chef cooked was really great too. (I am vegetarian and there was always nice vegetarian options)
They were also very helpful arranging onwards travel.
Thank you very much Porcupine expeditions.

They really care about you!
I booked a 5 day Safari of the Serengeti through Porcupine expeditions and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
Not only did they find a great safari that fitted my dates and budget perfectly they really look after you as if your family. Julean and Anna are so kind! Julean picked me up at the airport, showed me around Arusha, took me out to her family’s restaurant for dinner and provided me with a hotel to stay in before my safari at no extra cost. Julean kept in contact with me through the tour to ensure everything was going to plan. She also booked my bus from Arusha to Dar Es Salaam for after the tour which was very helpful!
The safari they booked for me was amazing! I saw 5/5 of the big five plus so much more. My guide was very experienced and knowledgeable. He made sure we had great views of all the animals and didn’t rush us. The car, camping equipment and food were all very high quality.
As a solo female traveller who was a bit nervous about coming to Tanzania alone I would highly recommend Porcupine expeditions!
