Perfect Safari Organisation and Great guide!
Our private safari tour was perfectly organized from the first to the last minute. Our guide Oscar was extremely nice, competent and courteous and he immediately responded to individual requests. Many thanks to the entire team, we can recommend Safari Soles 100%!
A challenging but beautiful Mount Meru hike
We organized a 4-day Mount Meru trek with Safari Soles, including a briefing day and three days of hiking. Overall, our experience was positive, and Patrick’s communication made planning easy. Our guide, Antipas, provided a clear and thorough briefing, and we could rent any extra equipment on-site, though some rented items weren’t as clean as we’d hoped. The hike itself offered incredible scenery, with diverse landscapes changing as we ascended, and we were lucky with the weather—just a bit of rain on our descent.
The accommodations were comfortable, with a nice lodge the first night and private four-bed rooms in each hut along the trail. We were also provided with a private chef, and the meals were consistently warm, tasty, and energizing—truly appreciated after each day’s hike! The first day’s route was very manageable, with the second day a bit more challenging. Our guides were supportive, friendly, and spoke English well, helping us at every step.
For future trekkers, we’d recommend considering a four-day hike (rather than three) to make the summit attempt more comfortable. Our schedule required us to either summit just after arriving at the second hut or start at midnight, leaving little time to rest. An additional day would allow for better acclimatization at 3,500 meters. In our case, two group members felt mild altitude sickness above 4,300 meters, but our guides ensured we descended safely, despite the challenging descent in the dark.
For context, we were a group of four 30-year-olds in good shape with low to moderate hiking experience. We suggest discussing your fitness level, trip expectations, and each day’s route (including altitude, distance, and hours of hiking) with Safari Soles to ensure a well-suited itinerary for the best experience possible.
Amazing
Thanks to everyone at safari soles especially our guide idi it was worth the value
Top Safari Operator Definitely !!!
Me and my friend had a perfect 6 days' safari with Safari Tours!
Wrote emails to over 30 5-stars safari operators, Safari Soles won us in the final round owning to timely communication, price, well-organized schedule ! Before the journey, I did homework my own and had a rough idea of Tanzania Parks, the plan made by Oken perfectly matched with my expectation! And he was the first one replied my request email among all operators I asked even in the weekend. Although one of the accommodation was changed due to fully booked, Oken communicated with me timely and added me in WeChat app taking care of Chinese customers. The only thing could be improved is, I requested and paid 40% deposit 2 months ahead, but the flight ticket and accommodation booking letters didn't sent to me till a week before we start the journey. I don't know whether it's reservation team got slack at their work or caused by accommodation staffs, anyway, if the booking status could be communicated weekly, that would make me feel they are trying best to help book rooms. Beside this, Oken was really friendly and gave me a very warm welcome before the trip!
Beside wonderful views, our guide Alex was part of this lifetime experience! Alex was not only a professional guide, skilled driver, animal expert, human binocular, safari guard, private photographer, but also our friend! During the afternoon in Ngrongoro, we saw Big 5 in the same day! The moment he heard there's a leopard near, he drove us there ASAP, just after 5 minutes, leopard ran away! Thanks to Alex! Then we spent 2 days in Serengeti, saw 2 lions eating a buffalo, Alex taught us how Lions hunt and how to start from the tail of animals, we enjoyed a live BBC broadcast with a running commentary! The last day in Serengeti, though wildebeests failed to cross mara river due to one was caught by crocodile, Alex explained the wildebeest group immigration behaviors and how they live together with zebras, that's super interesting!
In conclusion, we really appreciate everything safari soles arranged for us, especially Oken and Alex, we can't have such a perfect experience without you two! I'll definitely recommend safari soles to all my friends who plan to go Tanzania!!
10/10
We had absolutely the perfect experience with Safari Soles. From the first contact to the end! 1 A organized & always available. The safari was simply incredible, we saw elephants, lions, rhinos, giraffes and countless other animals up close. Great food, wine, beer etc. all included. Great accommodation for the overnight stay. Special thanks go to Boniface and Jessica for the organization and especially to our driver, Cheddy! Cheddy was a very careful driver, always concerned about the well-being of the animals and his guests, incredibly friendly, in a good mood and answered all of our questions. Simply great.
