I went on a safari to Kenya and Tanzania some 42 years ago in 1970. I remember it well because of the WOW factor I experienced back then. As this Thomson safari approached, I wondered if I would have a “been there, done that” reaction when I got there. Not at all. Thomson provided a WOW factor that, if anything, surpassed the one of 42 years ago.
We will certainly recommend Thomson to anyone we talk to about safaris. The Thomson experience was awesome. Thanks for a wonderful trip.

I’ve been to over 55 countries and on all 7 continents – no one else does it better than Thomson! The fact that I brought my entire family along is the highest compliment I could give.
The trip was a huge success, far exceeding my entire family’s fondest expectations. I have no doubt we will return to Tanzania with Thomson Safaris.

This was Dick’s 4th trip with Thomson.
He trekked Kilimanjaro with us in 2003 and has been on 3 safaris with us since 1999.
Michael and I found our trip to be transformative, illuminating. For the first couple of weeks home, our nights were filled with dreams of Tanzania. I would go back—with Thomson Safaris—in a second.
John, Hashim, and Abu are amazing: Great naturalists who can explain about everything from elephants to baobab trees while tip-toeing a jeep down an impossible road. Please tell them Asante sana!!
I did not expect to be as affected by people and their lives as I was. The schoolkids were great. We were impressed by the level of the 5th-grade math books we saw, and happy to learn that Thomson helps support them. Even the food was good…the last thing I thought about in anticipating our trip. Tasty and healthy!
Thomson really does put a lot of time and effort into anticipating all the details of each trip to produce the best visitor experience possible.

It was a fabulous trip. I loved the summit day. Wilfred is an excellent leader and guide, Loshie is great and very friendly, Godlisten is a fantastic leader and extremely knowledgable and fun to be around!
I figured Thomson was the best company on the mountain since MTV climbed with you!

The guides affectionately called my mom “BiBi” which caught on quickly for all of us, so now, mom is “BiBi”. Ojukwu honored her resilience and stamina the night before we left. He brought us all to tears when he expressed his appreciation for her ability to experience all the opportunities this safari offered us. Mom felt like a queen. Her birthday celebration is one we will never forget.
I have never been so satisfied with a trip….from the guides to the food to the unbelievable thought that every day was the best day.

The trip is one we will absolutely not forget. It was fantastic in every way. We can only say great things about all the people that touched us on behalf of Thomson Safaris.
As the trip progressed, I became more and more aware of the logistics involved with moving a family throughout Tanzania. I can honestly say that the Thomson Safari staff pulled it off without a hitch, they were available at every point, every transition was smooth and we were able to completely enjoy the experience without worrying about all the travel details.
As we spoke to people traveling with other travel companies, it became apparent that Thomson provides a superior service. Our guides, accommodations and our meals were far superior.
