Hard working & good communication
Right from the beginning, the whole RO team was very active and responsive in planning the schedules and itinerary. They also considered & accommodated various requests that we made along side the basic plan (eg, type of accommodation, vegetarian food, vehicle modification, interaction with guides, experts etc). They were very prompt in replying to our queries. This helped us to plan things in a better way. Prices were very competitive and the whole RO team was committed to cater to our requirements.
They are definitely a company to go with.
The areas they can improve is to gain more maturity in estimation of timings, road conditions and distances between destinations. Sometimes it becomes too much for the day and excessive rush & stress. They also need to improve their assessment of properties and should make sure that the customer is not made to suffer for the lack of homework & evaluation of camps and properties by RO. The customer should get enough time for a bit of relaxation, peaceful dinners and a bit of leisure.
Definitely recommend RO but make sure that the chosen properties (camps, hotels) are well assessed before you confirm.

A once in a lifetime experience.
We traveled for four days spending two nights in Serengeti, one night near NGORONGORO and one day in Tarangire. The communication to organise our trip was really great and quick. The team answered all our questions made us several offers until we found the perfect route for us. The safari it self was just overwhelming, also because of our great guide, Edward. He took great care of us and made sure we get to see all the different animals. It was our honeymoon but we didn’t communicate it with the team. Anyhow they just knew it and surprised us with a banner on our safari car and we got also surprised in all accommodations we were. The camp in Serengeti was a once in a life time experience. The nights were so amazing hearing all animals outside. If you want to go to Serengeti sleep in the camp! All in all it was the best trip we ever made! Big thanks to the amazing team! We will recommend it to anyone!

Our driver guide was very professional, kept an eye on our mood, took us to find many animals, and had a very special birthday
Our hotels are very distinctive and the food is fresh and delicious every day.
Tanzania left me a very good impression and a very happy trip.

Best Tour Company in Arusha
Truly RO Scavenger Safaris was the best company ever. We were connected by my mother who resides in Arusha Tanzania 🇹🇿 while we were here in the States. Silas, the manager reached out to me. The back and forth communication was clear and effective. My husband and I were impressed with the itinerary. We did a 3 day Safari, Ngorongoro crater day trip and two days were spent in Serengeti.
Our driver did an amazing job spotting the animals. He made sure we were satisfied before moving on.
The food was delicious! We were lucky to be served hot meals. Accommodation was wonderful. Moyo Tented Camp had the best luxury tents. The food was delicious and the crew were the sweetest.
RO Scavenger Safaris Tour made our Safari experience easy, fun, luxury and memorable. This was a family get together trip. RO Scavenger Safari Tour became part of our family too.
Thank you RO Scavenger Safaris for the amazing trip and thank you for the thank you gifts at the end of our trip. See you soon!

Excellent, personal guide
It was our first time doing a trip to sub Sahara Afrika. As from our landing in the airport, we were welcomed very warmly by our driver Elia. The jeep was excellent and foreseen of more than enough drinks to keep us hydrated. During our tour of 7 days, our guide always tried to please us as much as possible and was very flexible to slightly change the itinerary were we wanted. On top he helped a lot when 1 of us got sick, going to a pharmacy and buying us some medicines. As a cherry on the cake we received some thank you presents at the end of the tour. In general I would highly recommend this organization. They allowed for an stress-free safari trip and everything was arranged perfectly.

Superb safari from start to finish
We had an incredible safari with RO Scavenger. It’s a boutique operation owned and run by a former safari guide and his experience really showed. Silas was incredible to work with from the outset and tailored the safari to our every need, factoring in specific experiences we wanted and ensuring it all fitted within our budget.
We also had a superb guide called Edward who is super friendly and seemingly knows pretty much every other guide out there, which was useful for getting tip offs for rare sightings. He has years of experience and it showed. While other guides would be jostling for position, he’d sit back knowing where the animals would go to, ensuring we had front row seats for several incredible moments. We saw all the big five, had some very close encounters and got to see some truly unique animal behaviour experiences.
We had booked the safari for our honeymoon and it RO Scavenger organised several wonderful little touches everywhere we stayed. It was a truly memorable experience - and made all the better by the fabulous food and unending supply of wine, beers and snacks!

Amazing
The trip was amazing, on the way to the safari you see alot of landscape and mountains and good nature so you Will enjoy the journey. Also the driver Will make sure you are comfortable and answer all your questions and tell you everthing you need to know about the animals. We had a little bumpy Ride when we came to the park but the driver was kind also too slow down the pace so it was a very good service.
