My Story

My father loved Zanzibar so much that he gave me the name Zanzibar. It may not appear on my official documents, but it holds a special place in my heart. I only allow those closest to me to use it, as a symbol of trust and connection. It makes me feel unique — and that's why Zanzibar will always be my dream destination.

Despite being transported in what was likely a rented vehicle that had clearly seen better days, and our guide being a freelancer who sometimes needed help navigating, we had a fantastic holiday. Everything was perfectly arranged; all accommodations were beautiful, clean, and in stunning locations. We ate delicious food, and we were amazed by the thousands of animals we saw. Afterward, we spent a few relaxing days in Zanzibar, which was wonderful. We met some incredibly friendly people. In short, a truly successful experience. Thank you.

An unforgettable trip. Exceeding all expectations!! Everything was perfectly organized down to the last detail. The accommodations were all superb. The hot air balloon ride, the mountain biking, the visit to the Maasai—everything was fantastic and simply excellent. The experience is indescribable. The guide (Dayfrid) was truly amazing and made sure we saw as much as possible and made it very comfortable in the Jeep. The trip to Zanzibar and the accommodations there were also simply fantastic. The information provided beforehand was very helpful and clear. The speed with which they responded to questions is also highly commendable. A top-notch organizer and a holiday we will never forget.

We had a fantastic safari with our guide, John Paul. He knew exactly where to go to spot wildlife. We won't soon forget the wildebeest crossing on the northern side of the Serengeti. Very impressive. Our stay in Zanzibar was also excellent.

We had a fantastic trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar with our family (three boys aged 12, 17, and 19). We enjoyed it from day one. We received a warm welcome at all the (excellent!) accommodations; everything was perfectly organized and ran very smoothly. The guide (Collins) who accompanied us on the safari was fantastic in every way! Even though we were spotting animals well, he was able to alert us to the animals much earlier while driving. He was also very kind, pleasant, speaks good English, and is a great driver! The accommodations were all incredibly inclusive, especially the staff. Thanks to Tanzania Specialist for the wonderful experience of this special trip, where we were completely taken care of.
