Good organizers
5/5

we did a 5 day safari during which we visited the Tarangire and Serengeti parks, the Ngorongoro Conservation area and at last but not the least the Mataruni Waterfalls at the foot of the Kilimanjaro . The timing was great. The breakfasts in the Lodge and the lunches organized in the parks with cutlery and good food were more than satisfactory. The skillful driver was always able to solve any situation .
The last day they changed the driver and the new driver/guide was really nice, polite and outgoing. he led us inside the forest in order to reach the waterfalls, an amazing view but it could be better write in the brochure that it's not really a walk.
At the end of the safari we stayed in a hotel in Arusha (Tullia boutique Hotel) which wasn't be up to the previous accommodation, but I add that, for their choice, one of the previous days they upgraded the accommodation in a great lodge .
Overall it was a wonderful experience

kind and helpful
4/5

the safari was a magnificent experience! We managed to see many animals and despite the somewhat uncertain weather the tour operator always managed to find solutions (not letting us sleep in a tent due to rain). The food was very good with many options for vegetarians too.
The accommodations were equipped with electrical sockets and wifi. Guides certainly need to improve their communication of important information such as timetables and general organization. Guides are available on request

Good people, good times. Amazing safari tour
5/5

David, the organiser and Grayson, our guide went above and beyond for our 5 day safari. Not only did Grayson drive us everywhere teaching us about the wildlife and environment, he also taught us about the history and culture of Tanzania. He was patient, respectful, enthusiastic and a joy to spend 5 days with. And the 4w driving was pretty exciting too - especially during wet season. Couldn’t recommend this tour more. We saw very active wildlife, the accommodation was incredible and the people in Tanzania are generous and kind.
10/10. Asanti sana

Exceptional service and customer care
5/5

We went to a one day safari to Materuni waterfalls! It was once in a lifetime experience I would recommend to anyone !
Amazing picturesque waterfalls, excellent food and the hospitality of the people from the Runi clan are something you will remember forever!
I’d like to express our appreciation for the great work of our driver and host Justin for his outstanding work and patience and for helping us with anything we needed!
Make this trip with Justin and William from Dansing Simba Safari for an experience you’ll never forget!

Dancing Simba - just perfect! Best driver ever
5/5

Lake Manyara NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire NP.

Wonderful safari, everything was well organized. The lodges/camps booked corresponded exactly to the descriptions. The staff at the lodges and camps were very friendly and helpful. Our ideas for the safari were perfectly planned and implemented by Ms. Badrah (Dancing Simba). She was available at any time and answered every WhatsApp with the smallest question before and during the safari in a short time, thank you for that.
The biggest thanks, however, go to our guide Gido, who showed and explained so many exciting things to us over five days from Arusha to the Serengeti. The accommodations were also amazing, especially the Matawi Serengeti Camp was great. The only thing we would change is to spend two nights in the Serengeti to enjoy it a little more intensively.
Thanks for the great experience.
Thank you Gido you are amazing

Absolutely incredible and I wish I did a longer safari!
5/5

The Serengeti, tarangire and the crater are absolutely breathtaking parks. David is an amazing company owner and is very helpful through the whole process. Everything is arranged before you arrive so you don’t have to worry about anything and he is always there to help if there is a problem. I did a 4 day budget camping safari and sleeping in a tent surrounded by wild African animals is an incredible experience. 4 days you do see a-lot but I would suggest to people to book a 5 day safari instead of 4 because with the Serengeti being so large, it should be done in two nights rather than one! Will definitely be back :) even got two free dancing Simba safari t shirts!!

Ps. If you are a solo traveller like I was, your schedule may be a little different than the original itinerary you are sent because they need to fill trucks! You don’t miss out on anything but you just may have a different order of the parks than expected. Couples or bigger groups don’t tend to have the same situation.

Unforgettable, with the best tour guide we could wish for
5/5

We had a private safari tour with Dancing Simba and it was absolutely amazing!
The communication and planning before the trip was very good but the true highlight was our tour guide Praise. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, the entire Serengeti area, and spoke very good English. He took us to all the places and animals we wanted to see and made this a unique and very special trip, far away from any mass tourism. We definitely recommend booking with Dancing Simba, and specifically asking for Praise to be your guide!

He is charming
5/5

Dancing Simba Safaris truly made our Serengeti adventure unforgettable. Our guide was the heart and soul of the experience, an expert with an unbridled passion for the wilderness. Their ability to spot wildlife from afar was remarkable, ensuring we didn't miss any of the incredible creatures that call the Serengeti home. Whether it was the majestic Big Five or the smallest of creatures, our guide's knowledge and enthusiasm brought each encounter to life, making it not just a safari but an educational journey through the wild.
