An unforgettable and truly adventurous experience!
Ome of our dreams was to see lions, elephants and giraffes. And we did, really close, I bet we could have touched the lions when they passed our car. Loved that it was an open car, so we really felt the nature and smells

What a first safari experience! Wow!
Communication started great, Mr. Edward replied promptly. There was a small issue but was resolved, which we appreciated.
The value for money is great, with competitive prices.
We booked a private tour so my husband can take photographs with his big lens. It was worth it, he ended up taking amazing photos! Our guide Abdulli was very knowlegeable and patient as we stopped to take photos.
He also went the extra mile (literally) to show us the lions!
We truly recommend this operator ❤️

Wonderful service
We booked and had a fantastic experience from start to finish! Got to se me a lot of wildlife and our tour guides were both brilliant and very knowledgeable, only things that could’ve improved the experience was the jeeps seemed a bit more run down than some of the other safaris but it didn’t deflect from our overall experience. Once in a lifetime trip thank you!!

Omar was the best guide you can have. Energetic, funny, and very educated
Omar was a great guide and the driver Ramazan was also very good. Both of them together helped us find the main animals before the rest of the group. The game drive is long so it helps that Omar has good energy and he understands what the guests are looking for the most.
As far as communication goes, the organization was very good. The taxi ride, plane ticket, and the accommodations were well communicated. They respond quickly and answered the phone.
We paid about $650 per person for a 2 days safari and I think it was well worth it. Other companies are around $1000 per person. The breakfast was not so great, but lunch and dinner were very good on the safari. We all enjoyed the food more than some restaurants in the city.
I’d rate the reliability very high, mainly because on the game drive there are a lot of things that can go wrong quickly. Since Omar and Ramazan are very experienced they often help other drivers out with issues as they arise. I will say that the car we drove in definitely needed to be serviced as it broke down on the way to the lodge 4-5 times consecutively. Our guides fixed the vehicle, but I think that car is definitely in need of proper repair.

No problem, they do what they say.
We want to thank you for an incredible experience. Face to face with a big elephant, close to giraffes and hippos. Or playing lion cubs. You have to experience that. Thank you Edward and his team. Excellent driver Maneno, who made sure that we felt safe even in difficult terrain and Jafari our guide was very nice and willing to describe and explain everything to us.

The tour operator and the guides are excellent.
We booked and reserved this trip from Germany. All communication was handled via email, and everything worked perfectly from start to finish.
The transfers were also smooth and very well organized.
During our safari in Tanzania, we had a guide named Esha and our driver Daniel, who accompanied us through the different game reserves. We have to say that we had a fantastic time. Both guides took a great deal of time for us, paid attention to all our wishes, and even exceeded our expectations.
It was one of the most beautiful trips we have taken in a very long time. The experiences were simply incredible—beautiful, impressive, and full of unforgettable moments.
A big thank you to the tour operator, as well as to Esha and Daniel, for this extraordinary experience. We can wholeheartedly recommend this trip and the entire team.
The tour operator and the guides are excellent.

Great communication and answered all questions promptly, great tour well organised.
We had a great day, slightly overcast but able to see Lion's and their cubs, elephant's including a baby, zebra's, wildebeest's, giraffe's, impala's, buffalo, hippo's, crocodile's and a mix of birds and butterflies.
The day started being picked up at 5am from Kiwengwa, being driven to the airport for a 10am flight in a twin prop Dash 8-100 plane. After about a 50minute flight we landed and changed into our modified land rovers.
The were 7 of us in the 4x4 and saw a lot on our drive around the reserve. Stopping for lunch before continuing on until our flight back to Zanzibar and taxi back to our resort.
We could see some development in the reserve, what looked like a new airport strip being built, and building improvements.
Although there was a number of other vehicles doing the tour, we never felt that we were all in a convoy or following one another, but at times we did meet the others 4x4 when groups or prides of animals were spotted, ie the lions. We never felt the animals had to stay near us or were chased down. Even had the lions walk up to our 4x4 to take shade under it.
Nixon, our guide/driver was brilliant and knowledgeable.
Very much worth doing. Amazing experience.

Trust
It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Everything went well, from leaving Zanzibar to returning to the hotel. The safari was very good, I just think the boat safari could have been better, there was a lack of wildlife, especially crocodiles. But overall it was a very good experience, I highly recommend it, especially for the professionalism shown by Plex.

We had a really great time on safari with plex Africa safari. The driver and guide where really great and told us a lot of interesting facts about the nature and animals. We were really lucky seeing a lot of animals!
The booking was really easy, fast and uncomplicated. Everything went as described before!
We can only recommend a safari with them :)
