All Good
Two perfect days with the guide. We go in Selous Reserve . We see more animals but not leons and ghepard. The guide was a good drivers and he saw more animals.
Very professional
The guide came to the hotel the day before the hike to Check the gear.
7 people accompanied me during the hike and the whole Crew was always very friendly and helpful.
The food was for every meal very delicious and met my vegetarian requirement.
Only negative part is, that i booked 8 days, but was only 7 days ...

Posted on Oct 16, 2024Hello Ju,
Was a pleasure having you in Tanzania and take you to the roof top of Africa.
We always strive to deliver the best adventure experience to our clients.
Our professional Mountain guide and crew did their best to make sure to made it to Uhuru Peak. After the discussion with them it's where you decided to descend straight to Moshi although we paid the park for 8 days.
It's happens sometimes after the summit some climbers don't need to continue stay up the mountain and after they confirm to leave then our guides and the mountain crew will be in-charge of taking them down.
We are sorry for anything that was not appropriate on your hand and we will make sure this doesn't happen again to our future.
Thank you so much for booking your Kilimanjaro climb with Destiny Explorers.
Kindest regards,
Issa

Compassionate and caretaking
I'm dreaming of a canoeing safari for a whole year now, so this was something special - but all my expectations were met.
The communication was good from the beginning. Unfortunately the date had to be postponed due to unstable weather, but Issa, the owner of the company, explained everything to me so I felt in good hands.
When finally the day arrived, he and Tom, the guide, picked me up early and we went to Lake Manyara for a game drive. Both, Tom and Issa, are really enthusiastic and funny guys, so we had a great time. When we met other clients spring the game drive, Issa always asked about their safari, he was really interested in all of his clients.
I'm not just interested in seeing the Big Five, so Tom also was looking for other animals. He knew and explained a lot, I appreciated it a lot.
Finally there was the canoeing safari. It was really hot that day but still the two guides managed to show us a hippo. We got life jackets and instructions what to do and not to do, so I felt safe during the whole trip and free to enjoy.
I had a great safari with Issa and Tom and with the guides from the canoeing.

Professional, thoughtful, experienced, friendly and promt.
We used Destiny Explorer for our guide/driver during our five day Safari package experience. It was a private tour mother-daughter trip. We covered, Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Highlands, Lake Eyasi and Lake Manyqra. We thoroughly enjoyed the mixed events which included game drives and the walking safaris. The additional cultural experience with the Hadzabe and Tonga tribes completed our unique and memorable 5-day experience in Tanzania. Our driver Bonniface, was the consummate professional: a thoughtful, experienced and knowledgeable driver and guide, he enlightened us not just about the wild mammals in the Safari but also the unique birds in the Savannah and in the Ngorongoro crater. We also had many great conversations with Bonni over meals on the culture and people of Tanzania. Last but not least we appreciated Bonni maintaining the jeep in great working and clean condition; especially when we passed a few vehicles with issues during our 5-day experience.
I highly encourage the Africa experience in Tanzania for everyone, and strongly recommend Bonniface and Destiny Explorer for your trip!! We did a lot of research and this tour operator is one of the most affordable and you will definitely get the bang for your buck.

An incredible experience with a wonderful guide.
Our tour was an incredible experience. We saw amazing animals, landscapes, and met amazing people. We loved every place we went to. The gems that stand out was Ngorongoro Crater (one of the most stunning places we have ever been to) and to our surprise, the visit to the Lake Eyasi and the Hadzabe tribe. We were able to learn about their culture and see how, despite the pressures of modernization, they continue to follow their old traditions. We even accompanied them on their hunt! Amazing. Our driver, Bonny, was a great resource during the tour. We had many interesting conversations with him as he taught us about the locations we were visiting, various cultures, and our questions. He also took very good care of us during the drive and at each of the lodgings, making sure we had everything we needed. During the drive itself over the sometimes rought terrain, he was well prepared and clearly an expert at taking care of the jeep and we never had any problems with the vehicle (although we did see quite a few!). In short, I would highly recommend both this tour and Destiny Explorers!

Excellent experience with a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide
Compared to other safari tours the price from Destiny Explorers seemed reasonable. Our tour guide Noel was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the many wild animals we saw during our safari expedition. Overall everyone in our group of 6 people had a fantastic safari experience.

Beyond Expectations
After months of meticulous planning and a whirlwind of emotions, my decision to embark on a Tanzanian safari with Destiny Explorers turned out to be one of the most rewarding choices of my life. As someone deeply sensitive and cautious about the uncertainties of organizing adventures from afar, I understand the weight of entrusting your dreams to strangers over the internet. Yet, after an exhaustive month-long research, I followed my intuition—my "seventh feeling"—and chose Destiny Explorers. It felt like fate intervened when Noel became our tour guide, a decision that felt nothing short of divine intervention.
From the moment we met Noel, despite our 7-hour delayed arrival, we felt an immediate sense of ease and excitement. His kindness, enthusiasm, and attentiveness were unparalleled, setting the tone for what was to become an unforgettable journey. We arrived in Tanzania after heavy rains, greeted by lush green landscapes and the challenge of muddy, waterlogged terrains that could easily hide our awaited ones. However, Noel's professionalism, fearlessness, and expertise shone brightly as he navigated us directly to them.
Contrary to our initial concerns, the conditions did not hinder our experience. Thanks to Noel, we encountered an abundance of wildlife, observing every imaginable animal in great numbers, a testament to his profound knowledge and skill. By the second day, we were already overwhelmed with gratitude for the value we received for our investment, making the remaining four days feel like an extraordinary bonus.
This safari was not just a trip; it was a profound journey of discovery, love, and awe-inspiring moments facilitated by Destiny Explorers and immortalized by Noel's dedication. We are already planning our return, with Noel as our guide, to once again delve into the heart of Tanzania's wild beauty. To those on the fence about choosing a safari company, let our experience with Destiny Explorers and the exceptional Noel guide your decision. It's a choice that promises not just a journey, but a lifetime of memories.
