Unforgettable trip
Our safari was a dream come true, and it's all thanks to the fantastic work of "Somewhere in Africa." Everything was perfectly arranged. They made sure we didn’t have to worry about anything and could enjoy every moment! The communication with Coosje was clear and friendly, with a keen eye for our wishes.
During the safari, we were amazed by the beautiful lodges, stunning views, and a friendly guide. Spotting the Big Five was, of course, the highlight. It’s clear that "Somewhere in Africa" is passionate about what they do.
We ended our vacation with a week in Zanzibar, and unfortunately, it was a bit of a letdown... In Zanzibar, the location of where you stay is crucial and can make or break your holiday! The boutique hotel "Alma," where we stayed, was very small, with few activities and facilities, only one restaurant, and no beautiful beach. The beaches in general are dependent on tides, but the situation varies by location. We tried to find fun restaurants or bars along the beach, but there were hardly any, or they were closed. We later learned that it’s better to stay in the North (especially for a couple like us, aged 26 and 28).
Once we communicated this with the organization, they immediately took action and did their best to make things right. They contacted the hotel, and we received a complimentary massage and bottle of wine. We also had a planned excursion with "Safari Blue," but unfortunately, that didn’t meet our expectations either. Again, the organization took action and as compensation, arranged a trip to the north to go dolphin watching by boat, snorkeling, and visiting a sandbank. This was worlds apart from Safari Blue and an unforgettable experience!
Although Zanzibar didn’t meet our expectations, we look back on the holiday with a very warm feeling and highly recommend this organization for an experience you’ll never forget!

Very well organised operator
We had a splendid tour of 6 days with guide Amani. After Tarangire and Mayara national parcs we went to the Serengati. Wow, what a parc! We slept there in Tukaone, a tented camp. We heard the elephants, waterbucks, zebras en jackals passing our tents at night. Incredible what an experience. The other days we slept in lodges. Eileens trees and Hhando coffee lodge were terrific. Twiga lodge lodge was middle class but okay. Overall we had a splendid safari.

A very kind and correct man.
We really enjoyed our safari trip to tarangire and ngorongoro. The guide was very kind and calm and gave us plenty of time to watch a lot of animals. The house where we slept was really neat and was very comfortable after a long safari day. We also loved the food the chef prepared for us. This safari was definitely worth the money, exept the way of payment was a bit of a struggle. I would advice you to pay with cash in stead of card. Overall I can definitely recommend going on safari with somewhere in Africa.

Great, kind, helpful team!
Host is a great man, who will do anything, just ask and he will help out. Team that cooks, does laundry, cleans are super kind, and always there for you. Volunteers can be a pain in the ass, don’t mind them. Be open about your sense of money, people in the street can easily rip you off. Always discuss and ask questions before you go get something, to Allan or Kevin. Don’t go hustling on the markets by yourself, you will be treated better and will get a better price when you are with a local you trust. You are safe to go for walks in the day, even alone. Always let someone know where you go and when you will come back. People in Tanzania a sensitive and kind human beings; remember you are very very rich in their eyes and compared to them. So kindly and strongly say know when you don’t want something. Walk away and be honest.

It's a good travel ,I think I will miss it.
I think this is a cost -effective trip.They also communications fluently in English,although my English is not very good. Although our flights are always delayed, Charles has been waiting for us, and Nuhu has been keeping in touch with us on WeChat, It's so secure. Charles seriously took us to find animals, allowing us to see a lot of animals, such as the lion family, the elephant family, the hippo family, etc., and also saw the endangered animal black rhinoceros!

An adventurous tour operator that offers great activities, along with excellent communication and se
We had an amazing holiday in Tanzania and Zanzibar with the four of us. We booked our trip through Somewhere in Africa and everything was organised very well from start to finish. It was wonderful to have everything arranged so smoothly, because it allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the trip without worrying about planning or logistics during the holiday.
The absolute highlight of our trip was the safari. It was an unforgettable experience to explore the national parks and see so many animals in the wild. Our guide was excellent: very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and clearly dedicated to helping us spot as many different animals as possible. Thanks to his experience and sharp eye, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife, which made the safari truly special.
The accommodations during the safari were also great. Each place was comfortable, well taken care of, and it was very nice to be able to relax by the swimming pool after a day full of game drives.
Communication with Somewhere in Africa was very pleasant throughout the entire process. The team was always helpful, responsive and willing to think along with us to make the trip as enjoyable as possible. What we also really liked is that you can book many different types of experiences through them, not just safari. They offer a wide range of activities, which makes it easy to create a very varied and personalised trip.
Overall, we had a fantastic experience and created wonderful memories. We would definitely recommend Somewhere in Africa to anyone looking to travel to Tanzania and Zanzibar!
