Adventure and travel Companies

Selecting a travel company or agency is definitely not an easy decision, especially in light of how much money is involved. When traveling to Tanzania and beyond, trying to organize your vacation or holiday, there are so many travel companies or agencies out there to choose from. It can be overwhelming even when you are just searching on the internet and especially when you are a first-time traveler. In order for you to have a happy and successful trip, it is very crucial that you make the right choice. Bad choices can not only ruin your holiday but also lead you to spend more money that you would have spent for the trip.

So why is Pathfinder Safari Inc. an excellent choice? We are not trying to give you information or simply trying to push you to commit to our company. We know this is our country (we know every corner) and it’s your adventure too, all our clients enjoy this advantage. There are many guarantees and no downsides for you in pursuing your expectations. Adventure travel companies or agencies in Tanzania, some of them do not know the meaning of true hospitality “high standards of the services of a tour agency enables you to see or get what you expected on your trip”.

They offer service in Tanzania, taking advantage of clients and money from unsuspecting tourists especially those visiting for the first time. These tour agencies and operators are not licensed by the government, as a result, they normally sub-contract out your trek to other licensed companies, and then take commission from them. By doing this, they avoid paying the correct license fees and taxes. This will definitely lead to inflated trip prices that will be transferred to the tourist.

These bad operators are only concerned with their own wealth and often pay their trekking staff or tourist guide very poorly and in most occasion, they do not offer them any insurance, proper equipment or other kinds of support they need to carry out their work effectively. At Pathfinder Safaris Inc., we understand the word “Hospitality”, and we subscribe to high standards with mandatory refund policy if we don’t meet your expectations while traveling with us.

As with all travel related matters, a little bit of common sense and pre-trip research will go a long way in ensuring that your trip is a success. You should take advantage of our websites and blogs and speak to as many other travelers as possible, this will guide you in making a decision about which tour agency to use for your trip.
