Above and beyond
Serengeti Smile truly exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly kind, professional, and knowledgeable. Our tour guide was excellent and did a fantastic job spotting the animals during the tour. After our safari we went to Zanzibar and had an issue with our luggage at the airport - Serengeti Smile helped us figure it out even though we were in a completely different location and they had no obligation to help us at that point . I don’t have single bad thing to say about this company and our experience! I would book with them again without hesitation.

Even Better than I expected
Booking with Serengeti smile was a fantastic choice. We decided on doing a 13 day Safari + Zanzibar holiday, Godian was helpful throughout adjusting things based on our feedback with great communication through Whatsapp and Email.
Our Safari guide was Champion who kicked things off with our starter (Tarangire) where the highlight was getting up close to the elephants. Next the main course was the southern Serengeti. Here we saw all sorts including some Lions having a breakfast of Wildebeest. Again thanks to Champion he was fantastic at spotting animals, sneaky shortcuts and his Swahili singing. Our safari ended with Ngorogoro (the wild zoo) as Champion called it, which might be the most beautiful place I've ever visited.
Asante Sana,
Owen

Once in a lifetime experience
I can’t recommend Serengeti Smile enough. From booking the safari holiday to being on it I have nothing but positive words to describe the experience. Communicating with the team was effortless and they always kept us in the loop with updates and tour planning.
The safari was amazing and I have experienced and seen things I could only dream of! I have witnessed the big 5 animals plus a whole range of others. I’ve been able to get close to elephants, lions and giraffes and see how incredible they truly are. The tour was so interesting as we visited Maasai tribe and got to learn about their way of living and culture, something I never thought I would do. I feel so lucky that I have experienced all of these wonderful things and couldn’t go without thanking our guide Champion!
This holiday was with myself and my boyfriend and while away it was my birthday with Serengeti Smile and Champions help they gave me a lovely surprise and some cake to celebrate! Champion has been an excellent guide, so friendly, knowledgeable and so caring towards us. He has taught us so much and shown us the beautiful animals Tanzania has to offer! Thank you so much and hope to come back in the future.

THE BEST!
We booked Safari part of our trip through Baraka from Serengeti Smiles. This part was executed flawlessly. We had zero issues and had a fantastic time. Communication was superb and everyone was exceptionally good . But we ran into problems with later part of the trip which had nothing to do with this company. When we reached out to them they went above and beyond not only to help us but actually resolve the issues. In this day and age when people barely want to do their own job I was pleasantly surprised with the work ethic, efficiency and kindness Baraka displayed. Thank you so much for making this the best trip ever!

An amazing experience in Tanzania
Our safari experience with Serengeti Smile was well-organized and professional throughout our Tanzanian trip. The tour provided us with a valuable opportunity to explore the African wilderness firsthand, observing wildlife in their natural habitat—an experience that left a lasting impression.
Our guide Barnaba managed the drives efficiently, navigating the uneven terrain competently to help us encounter a variety of animals, including some unexpected sightings. He maintained a respectful approach to wildlife viewing and shared factual insights about the ecosystem, which added depth to our understanding.
Overall, the agency delivered a reliable and smoothly coordinated safari that met our expectations. We would recommend them to travelers seeking a structured yet authentic introduction to Tanzania’s natural wonders.

Excellent experience to see all animals
Me and my wife planned our Safari with Serengeti Smile to Tarangire, NgoroNgoro, Serengeti (Ndutu) and Lake Manyara. I have to highlight smooth communication over Whatsapp with Eliad which helped us customise our trip and upgrade some accomodation as we requested. Hotels and camps ended up being great and bringing a lot of atmosphere to the experience. Among everything, it was all about our guide/driver Pius which went above and beyond with replying every question we had about animals, country, religion or culture. Pius drove us through all parks and we have seen Big Five and other animals such us lions, leopards, cheetah, elephants, giraffe, hippo and rhino! Pius is truly a nice person and I only wish he does this forever to bring joy to other couples likes us! We even experienced a mechanical issue with the car, but Pius was able to get us into another car which took us on a drive, fixed the damage meanwhile and next day we continued with him, go Pius! 💪🤘❤️

Exceptional knowledge and service.
Exceptional Safari Experience with Serengeti Smile
We had the most incredible safari experience with Serengeti Smile, and can’t recommend them highly enough! From start to finish for our 8-day safari, their service was nothing short of exceptional. The entire team was professional, attentive, and dedicated to making our trip truly unforgettable.
Our guide, Champion was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, landscapes, and local culture, but also thoughtful and engaging. Every game drive felt like a masterclass in nature, with detailed explanations and a keen eye for spotting animals. His passion for conservation and storytelling made the experience even more special.
Beyond their expertise, the team at Serengeti Smile went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their attention to detail, warm hospitality, and seamless logistics made our journey stress-free and enjoyable. Even in moments where flexibility was needed, they handled everything with professionalism and care.
If you’re looking for a safari company that truly prioritizes your experience, comfort, and adventure, Serengeti Smile is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future for Wildebeest crossing Mara river!

Excellent
We had Fady and Dominic as our guides. Fady is experienced and considerate, who is just the guide needed to achieve our quest to see all the Africa Big 5. Not only we saw the famous Big 5, we also saw cheetah hunting that is definitely an unforgettable sighting. Fady custom tailored the trip to our needs.
