While requesting offerers from top Google search companies in Arusha region for a personalised Safari trip included with flights from Zanzibar i was almost discouraged to go because of the high prices. A friend recommanded Buget Safari, local company from Zanzibar, lead by a really nice woman which made our perfect Safari trip for almost half the price compared to other companies. Perfect if you plan a Safari starting or ending in Zanzibar. Everything was grwat and well planned and we got to see alot of animals. We went to Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara and Tarangire national parks, each beautiful and unique in their own way. Highly recomand to choose them to plan you safari trip!

Me and my friend were visiting Zanzibar for one week. From arriving to the airport until leaving the island we had support from representative of Budget Safari, they arranged for us all the excursions, guide and transportation. First 3 days we were staying in the city and then moved to Nungwi beach. Everything was organized on time, when we had any questions Biubwa always assisted the same time. The company is very reliable and can offer a lot of options for hotels and tours in the island. Huge thanks wanna say for guide Abdullah, he is very professional and friendly, the city tour which can seems boring was amazing and interesting with him! Recommend everyone who wanna have unforgettable vacation to connect the Budget Safari!

I found budget safari "by accident" when Inwas searching for the safari trips while I was laying on my home sofa. Then I decided to send them a message and...that was the moment which made my life better and richer. The whole organisation was awesome, professional driver, professional guide, the owner of the whole agency lady Biubwa gave us the best price you can find in Zanzibar. In hotels they charge almost 3x higher price!! The safari itself can't be described as you need to feel it and be left speechless as I was. Next time going to Serengeti and already cant wait!!!

Extraordinay, unforgettable, perfect! The 3-day trip we have taken to Serengeti was a dream come true for us. Biubwa was AMAZING (thank you again! ❤), her invaluable help and professional know-how made it possible to be done with just a couple of days notice, and it was far beyond our wildest expectations: breathtaking views, jawdropping accomodation at Lemala Camps with some of the greatest people we have ever met, the best safari anyone could ask for - all in all an awesome experience which I recommend with all my heart. 10/10!

We spent 10 amazing days in Zanzibar and Tanzania from 15th February 2020 fo 24th February 2020. Our trip was perfectly organized by the Budget Safari travel agency and its owner Biubwa. We enjoyed 3 days exciting safary in Ruaha National Park. We saw lions and many beautiful, unstressed animals, we slept in tent in the middle of the bush. We snorkeled close Mnemba Atol, we saw wild dolphins in the ocean, we visited Stone Town, a UNESCO World heritage site, we fed giant turtles on Prison Island, and we learned about growing exotic spices at Tangawizi spice farm on Zanzibar Island, and, of course, we relaxed on the beach and by the pool at Amaan Bungalow in Nungwi. It was an unforgettable holiday. And all thanks to Biuwba and her travel agency, who organized everything great!!! Certainly we will be happy to return. We recommend this travel agency to everyone!!!
Many, many thanks Biubwa

Kombo was our tour organizer. It was a last minute trip but he provided a brilliant service. Starting with a prompt and clear price plan. He stayed in touch throughout and regularly checked to see if there were any issues.
We started with a spice tour with an excellent guide followed by a short walk through stone town as we made our way back to the hotel.
Kombo recommended a place for dinner which also had four brilliant DJs. Dancing the night away whilst overlooking the clear ocean made a memorable night.
The next day we had a trip to prison island with a wonderful guide who kept us entertained even as the wooden boat rocked up and down with the slightly choppy waters. The tortoises are such gentle giants.
The trip to the beach was OK.
The beach is so clean and the water is incredibly clear.
I give the highest recommendation to Kombo of Budget Safari for exceptional service. I look forward to using their services again.

We made a very spontaneous Safari in Selous Game Drive. Everything worked perfect.
Imani and his driver were the best team you could imagine! They are both so interested in all the animals and take care about the nature. You really feel they like their jobs.
Imani knows so much about the animals and the driver loves offroad - so we had a great adventure. Defender ist the best car for safari!
They take so much time to find traces and follow them - so we were really lucky to find 2 lions walking and climbing on the tree in the first 2 hours of our safari.
We felt super comfortable, had fun with our guides and are so happy and thankful we had the chance to do this safari with the BEST 2 guides from Tanzania :-)

Just one word: GO!
it has been organized by Biubwa, and her job was just waouhhhhhhh! No word to explain all the wonders we could see so close! In 3 days and 2 nights, in a wonderful place which is the Mdonya old river Camp, all was just perfectly organized. Schedules for the flights, lunch boxes in the bush, stay in the camp with amazing food, all was just perfect. Our 2 guides, Thomas and G4 explained us so much concerning the animals and flowers that we are now so much clever! Lions, leopard, elephants, giraffe, hippos, crocodiles, buffaloes, impala,.... All were there! Thanks Biubwa for this amazing experience!
Just go and you will be completely charmed!

Great travel agent. I have booked quite a few trips with Biubwa now and she managed to arrange all very well. She is flexible, communicative, open to suggestions and specific itineraries. Even when something goes wrong (train not going...) she manages to re-arrange the trip within a flash. Terrific service and happy to recommend her to anyone!

Hello !
I am looking to come to Zanzibar from 16th - 24th July and was looking at some prices for a safari. I would like to do the crater / Serengeti and maybe something else for around 3 days at the beginning or end of our trip.
We are 2 adults and 2 children.
What kind of pricing can you give me? Looking for the best price so I can include it in my trip please.
Thank you so much
