Moses the guide with eagle eyes
We did a safari of the major parks in Tanzania and lucked out with who we thought was the best guide a visitor could ever have. Moses had extremely sharp eyes it made us wonder if he was part human, part eagle. He pointed out all sorts of wildlife camouflaged in the grasses, bushes and trees close up and in the distance without relying on the radio (it was turned off much of the time). At one point he also spotted a pot camouflaged in the distance taken away from the camp by animals! He was also attentive with getting us into the best position to take photos, videos and just enjoy the moment watching the animals while he explained their behaviours.Moses' wealth of knowledge about animals is incredible. He shared lots of fascinating facts about their psychology, why they behave the way they do, and their relationships with other animals, which made us appreciate the complexity of wild animals a lot more and take a much greater interest in them. He also shared knowledge about Tanzania's vegetation, tribes, and economy, which again made for an enriching experience that you would normally have to visit many museums to get. It's very clear he educates himself to be an expert at his craft.Moses' driving skills, confidence behind the wheel, and mental map of the parks and villages were unrivalled. He navigated extremely dangerous fogs on mountain roads quicker than other jeeps while making us feel safe and was consistently passing other cars expertly and safety, including squeezing through tight safari traffic to rush us to rare sightings like the rhino and river crossing. He also helped give directions to another guide we passed in Serengeti, which is truly a maze, and knew shortcuts in villages to get us to places more efficiently. He was both an adept driver and wildlife expert so we didn't need a separate driver and separate spotter/guide.Lastly, Moses' genuine charisma, enthusiasm and passion for wildlife made a huge difference. He went out of his way to drive far and track down animals we really wanted to see. We realized how lucky we were to have a hardworking guide that cares when another guide we passed was reluctant to take his visitors to a leopard & cub sighting because it was considered too far. Even at the end of our trip after seeing a wealth of animals, he would continue to point out common animals like giraffes and elephants and point out tribes going about their daily lives. He was also very friendly towards other guides, greeting, laughing and sharing info about sightings with them like they were old friends even if they weren't. Overall, Moses was an incredible and extremely well-rounded, expert guide and a truly genuine and likeable person. We are so grateful that he was our guide. Compared to other tours we did, this was truly the best and most unforgettable experience and we would love to return on another safari with him. Thank you Moses!

Find ways to make our game drive impresssive
Even as the final days of our journey approached, and we had already been treated to a plethora of breathtaking wildlife encounters and stunning landscapes, our guide named Moses managed to keep us enthralled and astonished with his unwavering enthusiasm and knowledge. His keen eyes and ears seemed to detect animals and their behaviors long before we did, and he shared fascinating insights about their habits and adaptations.

Great experience
My family (me, my husband, and our 5-year-old) booked a 13-day safari trip for East Africa through Amazing memories, and the Tanzania part was hosted by Migada Adventures. We had Mike as our guide, who was extremely professional, experienced, knowledgeable, and helpful.We visited Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire, and were able to see over thirty species of mammals and over one hundred species of birds on the whole trip. Also, we took pictures and videos of wildebeests migrating, lions mating, elephants with babies, etc,...We also did a night safari in Lake Manyara, which was also awesome. We were able to see some bushbabies and genets there.

Good safari but many parts of safari contract only fulfilled after insistance
In June 2023 we did a 6-day safari trip in Tanzania with Migada Adventures to Ngogoro Crater, Serengetti National Park & Tarangire National Park. We booked with Amazing Memories Safari in Kenya, however the trip was performed by Migada in Tanzania, so we can only comment on the on-site situation. Overall we had a pleasant trip with many animal sitings and amazing experiences. However from the first day we had to argue with Migada / our driver to get what we paid for. Starting with smaller things like lunch on the first day (was supposed to be included but we had to pay for it), our bottled water ran out on the morning of the 3rd day and we were informed that we had to buy more ourselves (was also supposed to be included & our driver informed us that Migada never provides enough drinking water even though it is in the contract). The most annoying thing however was when we were informed that we would only have one full day game drive in Tarangire instead of one full day + two half days. We had purposely extended our trip for one night to have more time in this specific park so at this point we put our foot down and contacted Amazing Memories Safari in Kenya, which lead to them stepping in and clearing things up. In the end we were able to do one and a half days game drive in Tarangire and we got our money back for the lunch & the water. While in the end the contract was more or less fulfilled, if we hadn't insisted this would not have been the case. Our driver said Migada gave him a different itinerary than the one we had from Amazing Memories Safari and in the end we don't know which company is to blame but we would not book with either again.

Trip of a lifetime from beginning to end! 12 day safari
This was my third return trip to Serengeti National Park, Ngorngoro Crater, Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara( home of the tree climbing lions) NP, trip to waterfalls outside of Mount Kilimanjaro as well as lessons in the making of the awesome coffee grown in Africa. I have returned with the same guide year after year because he is an exceptional safari guide. Fadhili can spot a animal activity before it occurs including getting you to a spot for the perfect photo and experiencing the amazing animal behavior. He is so very knowledgeable of animal behavior. This company handles everything from meeting you at the airport til your return. Accommodations were with 5 star lodges as well as 2 nights in a tent camp with beds, toilets and showers. I continue to return because Africa, and its people, have stolen a piece of my heart with their hospitality and smiles on their faces always.They are truly a gracious group of peoples. One must experience a trip like this to fully understand. So I would suggest if you are wanting to have an experience of a lifetime setup your trip with this company.

Best trip ever and way beyond our expectations!
The safari was way beyond our expectations! It was very well arranged and the service, both from the Migada office staff and our driver/guide Donald, was top class. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. I would recommend visiting all three parks as they were all very different. Even travelling between the parks was an experience.

Amazing experience
Our safaris with Migada Adventures were amazing! We were in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti and our guide Santos did a great job. The rides with him were comfortable and he knew how to find the animals we wanted to see, still respecting their space. We fully recommend Santos as a guide.Thank you for the amazing adventure!

Too much fun with Donald!
We had the pleasure of a much too short experience with Migada Adventures as part of a larger safari through Kenya and Tanzania. Donald picked us up at the Sirari border entry point and we proceeded to spend the next three days exploring Serengeti and having the most wonderful time!Donald was so friendly and knowledgeable, and very obviously quite experienced at what he does. He was funny, taught us so much about the wildlife, and in general was a top notch host.From Serengeti we visited Ngorongoro Crater and spent a quick night there, and sadly it was all over way too soon. He delivered us safely to the Namanga border for our crossing back to Kenya to complete our safari. When we return to Tanzania, we will certainly be booking with Migada and Donald again!!
