Africa Adventure Consultants was the best choice of tour operator we could have chosen. We will be contacting Africa Adventure Consultants again for our next trip to Tanzania.

We just returned from our first trip to Africa and cannot express in words how very pleased we are with our experience to Africa. AAC planned the most magnificent trip of a lifetime for us. If a safari is on someone’s “bucket list” we highly recommend doing one and using AAC as your booking agent!
