Superb, our guide was the envy if the Serengeti!
5/5

When planning a venture I research everything in great detail and looking for a safari to tie onto a Zanzibar holiday was no exception. I narrowed my search down to 3 operators, all local to the area with an established track record.
Serengeti African Tours came back the swiftest and they put together a tailor made quote for me and my husband (in our 60’s).
The reservation was efficient, concise, flexible and easy via email and WhatsApp.
We were met at the airport by David (king David) our guide and driver and we set off in the Toyota jeep which was very comfortable and a crate of beers, wine and soft drinks in the back.
We had booked 2 days in the Serengeti and 1/2 day at Ngorongoro crater. Accommodation on first night was Land and Nature tents and second night Farm land, both ok properties that suited our needs and budget.
We were extremely lucky to see The big 5 as well as countless other animals at very close range thanks to the expert driving of David. He stops at nothing to ensure his guests have the best experience and if there is an animal to be found he will find it. His knowledge and experience of the areas we visited was astounding. We couldn’t believe our luck to see a leopard asleep in a tree, another running alongside the jeep, countless lions and cubs so close up you could feel their breath, giraffe within metres, aftermath of a killing, baby elephants by the dozen, and half a million of my favourite, the zebras. On leaving the Serengeti we could not believe our eyes with 1.9 million wilderbeast along a 15km stretch of road! Absolutely blew our minds.
David provided picnic lunches and pit stops along the way, and changed a punctured Tyre, all in a days work!
During an overnight stop, people from safaris swap stories. without fail, all who we spoke to wanted to know who our guide was as David had superseded anything anyone else had experienced.
Yes the trip was bumpy and even “hairy” at times but you would not find a better tour guide or safari company in Tanzania. We could not recommend them highly enough- just book and ask for (king) David as your guide.

Wonderful experience
5/5

We did the 7 days safari and waterfalls and couldn’t have been better.
Our guide, Mayunga, was excellent. He was very patience and informed, thanks to him we could see a lot of animals, including the great migration!
The accommodation was fine and the food was really delicious. Also, we had water, sodas, wine and beer available everyday. We had everything we need.
Everyone was really nice and kind, I would definitely recommend this experience and hopefully some day we’ll repeat it :)

Unforseen expenditures with your tour guide
4/5

Great exploring with your tour guide. He was amazing and humours. Takes you to an astonishing experience ever in your life. You can see various of wild life such as lions, elephants , giraffes, rhinos, hippos, eagles and so on.

When it comes to sleeping and staing in accommodation and tent, a lodge was a bit hot, no AC but there is fan. Tents are enough big for two people but a bit tight for three adults.

Last but not least, food and drinks are generally good and authentic african food every evening during touring. For breakfast, you can enjoy with some coffee and nice pancake, eggs, breads, and some sausages. But do not expect lunch 😅 lunch is same all the time and chicken was overcooked and a bit rough.

Overall, I would like to recommend you to come this tour for chasing new experiences!

Wonderful experience, would book again!
5/5

Linah was from the very beginning very helpful, informative and responsive. Very quick sending us a proposal and contacting us on WhatsApp for details, payment and providing a useful list of what to bring with us.
The day before Safari she came to our hotel in Arusha for a quick briefing and brought us the tour operator t-shirt, wine, beers and cokes to bring with us which was very much appreciated.
Our 3 days 2 nights camping Safari perfectly respected the itinerary received. Jeep was clean and comfortable, food was amazing from breakfast to dinner, every meal was rich and varied and we also got wine every night.
They also provided everything for camping and set the tents for us every day.
On the way back we switched car more times to get to our hotel and we forgot something in the last one. Linah immediately contacted everyone to make sure they found it and they even brought it to our hotel the next morning before our departure.

Overall I think we could have been luckier with our guide. He seemed well prepared and everything but unfortunately he didn’t talk a lot and whenever he did while driving no one was really able to listen because of the noise, so most of the times he talked just with the person sitting next to him. Of course he was available and informative when it came to answer our questions.
Another thing that might be improved is the overall organization and schedule. On the first day after a taxi picked us up to go to the meeting point, our guide told us that they were waiting for us for a long time and therefore we were all late, though we did leave the hotel with the driver that they sent at the right time, so maybe there was a misunderstanding between them.
If you decide to camp please be aware that conditions/services (like availability of hot water) can change from one campsite to another, but that of course has nothing to do with the tour operator. Camping still was amazing and authentic.

Overall it was a wonderful experience, we saw all the big 5 and so much more. I’d definitely book again with Serengeti African tour.
Asante sana!

Our guide Godfrey always made sure we had an amazing time!
5/5

Everything was well organised, the accommodation (tents/bed/showers) were clean and comfortable. Everything was provided for us. We didn’t need to worry about a thing. Godfrey, our guide, knows and explained a lot about the animals, which was great. We learned so much! Richard, our cook, did amazing work. The food was delicious!
We had the best time!
