A wonderful and educational experience
Some of the most memorable experience in my life will undoubtedly be the safari at Tarangire and visiting the Hadzabe tribe, and doing these with our wonderful tour guide Israel and Kelvin only made the experience even better. We learnt a lot about the country, the tribes, the animals, local life… They were also really nice and even helped with our transport, since we lived far from Arusha. It was a positive experience throughout the whole trip!
Gives amazing stories and will tailor the tour to your preferences!
We went on a 2-day trip to Tarangire National Park and the Hadzabe/Datoga tribes. Israel made our experience so special!
Communication was smooth and pickup was on time. We saw many animals during Tarangire, and both Israel, and our driver Kelvin, told us fun facts about the animals we saw. The next day visiting the Hadzabe tribe was better - after a brief introduction to the tribe and their weapons, we went hunting with the leader and two other members of the tribe. They shot birds from the tops of the trees, climbed trees to get honey, and showed us their traditional dance. After that, we visited the Datoga tribe and saw how they fashioned nails into arrowheads.
The drive back was long, but Israel entertained us with countless stories about the history of Tanzania and its tribes. I especially loved learning about the Maasai and Meru tribe and their cultural practices.
Israel truly puts his heart and soul into his trips, and I hope people get to experience Tanzania with him.
Tanzania Songbirds Safari made Once-In-a -lifetime journey through the heart of Tanzania
Choosing a travel company in Tanzania is a massive decision, but from the first I connected with Tanzania Songbirds Safari team, I know I wasn't just booked a tour in Tanzania- but I was feeling to joining the family. To say this was a trip of a lifetime would be a massive understatement. From the moment they welcoming me for pre-order safari to the final word of say goodbye, it was perfection, deeply personal and authentic.
This company do not only show you animals but make you feel proud for nature.
Our guides Erick and Israel are quite simply understand of the nature in general., they have a good spot of animals including hiding animals on Savannah. They were funny, patient and incredibly professional and ensuring we were in the best position for make a perfect phots and best watching animals position.
The logistics were seamless, the car was comfortable, the best lunch that we were surprised in the middle of he wild, the accomodations they selected were stunning.
Tanzania Songbirds Safari is the best in the business, and they will turn your Africa and Tanzania dreams in to a best memories and unforgettable story in your lifetime. I left a piece of my heart in the African savanna and I owe Tanzania Songbirds Safari the all team, is the best travel company I've found.
I recommend it

Delightful experience
We enjoyed our 4 hour tour with Innocent. He did a great job of introducing us to the Tanzania/Arusha culture. He’s extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Tanzania and the beautiful people. Highly recommend this tour as an introduction to Arusha.

A must do when in Arusha - Arusha Walking Tour
Booked this walking tour as we had some spare time on our last day in Arusha. I booked it while I was in Arusha as I realised it was better for someone local to show us around. Israel our guide was able to pick us up from the hotel for the start of the tour and drop us off at the end. This helps enormously in getting to the places to see, The first place of visit is the art gallery. This covers a wide range of pictures, carvings and ornate items showing the multitude of tribes and history within the region. This is an impressive place where you can spend hours admiring everything there. Israel was able to answer all the questions we had and able to provide further background information. After this we went to the large market in Arusha which has such a wide variety of fresh food to admire. This also provides a good way to smell, hear and feel what it’s like to live in Arusha as a local person. Everyone is so friendly and it feels safe to be there. Overall, having someone like Israel show us these places provides great insights and an appreciation off life in Tanzania. Highly recommend taking this tour if you are in Arusha as Israel speaks excellent English and is a young talented person who helps to make you feel comfortable and has great knowledge.

Excellent!
This was such a nice tour and Israel was an amazing guide. He picked me up at my lodge and we went directly to the Cultural Heritage Center. It has an impressive art gallery and good shopping, including a beautiful Tanzanite collection. We visited a local market which was very interesting. People there were so nice and welcoming and proud of their wares. We also stopped by the Arusha Declaration Monument and the Clock Tower. We finished at the Natural History Museum. Throughout the tour, Israel taught me some Swahili words and was very knowledgeable about his country, his city, both historically and culturally. He was very professional and accommodating and went above and beyond. Thank you, Israel!

Incredible Safaris in Tarangire N.P and Ngorongoro Crater with Songbirds Safaris
Me and my wife we had incredible safari experience in Tanzania with our tour host (Tanzania Songbirds Safaris). We couldn't expect much time in Tanzania and is the reason we booked this tour on the last week before our safaris. But we felt on the safety hand with the company and our host operator (Israel), he make sure everything is excellent.
Our 2 days safari in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater is memory to remember in our trip to Tanzania, we had this trip with our knowledgeable guide Erick who take us to all parks, drive us well and feel comfortable with him, his excellent English and very experienced driver guide. With excellent eye sight and looking after us we able to spot many animals that include famous African animals on africa Safaris (The African big five). Erick answer all our questions with deeply detail about animals and nature.
The accomodations in Karatu is very nice midrange lodge for overnight and we thanks so much for the company to organize this trip well for us.
I recommend for anyone looking for great experience safaris in Tanzania.

Wonderful experience with Tanzania Songbirds Safaris
We did a game drive to Arusha National Park in November, and it was an unforgettable experience. Israel was our guide, and he truly made the day special. The vehicle was almost new, with large windows and a pop-up roof that gave us perfect visibility throughout the safari. They also provided a very tasty packed lunch, which was a lovely touch.
During the day, we decided to add a walking safari on short notice, and Israel arranged everything seamlessly. He was incredibly attentive, kind, and knowledgeable, always ready to help with any information we needed. As it was our first time in Tanzania and our first safari ever, we couldn’t have asked for a better guide or experience.
Highly recommended!
