Excellent value for money
We have just finished an amazing safari with Sunny Safaris. We had done extensive research and contacted numerous companies to get itineraries and quotes. Sunny safaris came out significantly cheaper than the other companies so having checked the reviews on the internet, which were extremely positive, we decided to book with them. We organised the trip with Jessica who was extremely professional and prompt with her responses. As the cost of the safari was cheaper we were happy to add on some extras which still brought it in line with the cost of other companies safaris.
Our guide was Hameesh who was friendly and was happy to tailor the trip around us. Our cook was Damien who was absolutely excellent - really delicious food was produced each evening and we would definitely recommend him for your trip!
In all we were extremely happy with sunny safaris and would definitely recommend them.

Dreams come true
We had a more than beautiful Safari.
We were very lucky and pleased with Atmann as our Guide.
Especially the Acacia Hotel was like paradise especially the people working there.
We saw your breath-taking sceneries, the big five (many , many lions, cheetah and leopard) and I was very happy with the shared enthusiasm for birds between Atmann and me.
I would everybody advise to go with Sunny Safaris !
Thanks (Asante)

Great Safari
We had a great experience with Sunny Safaris. Ally was great at customizing a combination of luxury camping and lodge accommodations for us at a good price. Our guide Abdul was uncanny at spotting the animals and making it possible for us see the big five. The only thing that I had a problem with was getting sick after eating breakfast at the Sopa lodge at Ngorongoro Crater. Fortunately, it was my last of five days.

Amazing experience from beginning to end
Following the recommendation in our guide books (Stefan Loose - Tansania, Reise Know-How - Tansanias Nationalparks), I requested an offer and received a really good itinerary within only a few hours.
Jessica, our go-to person was always very kind, quick, patient and helpful and took all our wishes and extras into account.
She suggested two tailor-made tours for the four of us so that we could choose what suited us best.
She also provided us with all kinds of information (packing lists, pre-safari hotel recommendations, ...)
All of the proposed camping sites were very comfortable, clean and safe. The lodge (we were upgraded to) was a dream of an accomodation.
Our tour guide James was more than what you could wish for. He had an answer to all of our (stupid) questions, knew exactly in which positions the best photos could be taken, was very kind and patient, made us see all of the Big 5, was able to see and explain about every animal, no matter how far away, was extremely experienced and a really nice person.
Damian, our cook, was really a magician. Our 3-course-menues were far beyond what we could have imagined. He even baked a birthday cake in the middle of the Serengeti! The delicious lunch boxes, which left us speachless, were (unlike other Safari companie´s lunch boxes) packed in reusable plastic boxes.
All of the above made our Safari experience an unforgettable adventure!
Thank you so much!

Fantastic Safari
We dealt with Jessica when arranging our safari and she always replied very quickly, with great advice and fantastic English. Our safari guide was Habisi and chef Charles, both who gave us an amazing experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helped us to see all the animals we wanted. Charles made some great meals, we certainly always had more than we needed to eat with lots of variety. I would certainly recommend Sunny Safari to anyone.

Once if a lifetime experience
We had an amazing time on our safari – it was everything we could have hoped for and more; the accommodation (glamping and crater lodge) and food was excellent and BJ was such a great guide with excellent knowledge of the animals!

Perfect organized, guide with a lot of experience, yummy meals, individual possibilities: gorgeous!
We organized our tour from home and were in good contact with SunnySafaris. Jessica answered allways quick, so we could get onward with our planing. SunnySafaris were the only company who offered us for the same price a safari just for the two of us. We could bring in individual wishes like one extra day in Tarangire and two 2-hours-hiking trips, one at Mto wa mbu-Manyara, hiking up the mountain starting by the banana-plantation, the other one on the crater rim at Ngorongoro guided by an armed Ranger. Both were very exiting an nice after sitting all day in the car. We booked a 7-day-Camping-Safari (Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire) and were surprised how much we could see in these days. Our guide Khalifa was very experienced and found so many nice spots to watch animals - it was incredible! Thanks so much for that, Khalifa! We enjoyed it so much and appreciate the work. He explained a lot about the animals and referred always to our wishes. In the "background" was Vincent, cooking excellent meals, building up the comfortable tent and always looking for us. They were a good team; we enjoyed so much staying with them. Both were also very kind helping us getting the right bus to Moshi after the safari which helped a lot. All in all our expectation were matched more than we could have wished and we are still full of all the nice pictures in mind we collected during these seven days. For sure we can recommend SunnySafaris. It was really worth the money.

An excellent safari experience
Sunny Safaris organized an excellent 4 day safari touring us through 3 different parks and conservation areas. Jessica replied promptly to deal with our questions and concerns. We were fortunate to have Abdul as our guide as he was knowledgeable and experienced. I would highly recommend using Sunny Safaris to anyone planning a safari.
Our specific itinerary was accommodated, and staff were very professional and friendly
I contacted a number of companies for quotes and no other company could match sunny Safaris for price and the specific itinerary I requested.
Jesca, Marceli and Riziki the three staff we dealt with were excellent ambassadors for the company. Jesca communicated promptly and the guide Riziki, and cook Marceli provided an excellent experience for us in Serengeti.

Safari was all that I had hoped for!
We researched many different safari companies, and we were very pleased that we chose Sunny. Jessica always replied quickly to emails and was very willing to add on transport to and from the airport, without additional charge. She met us at airport at Arusha with our guide Abdul, which was reassuring, and reviewed again what our safari would include. We had 4 days and 3 nights but wanted to see as much as possible. We did visit Tarangire and then stayed at Maranyara Wildlife Lodge the first night, then to Serengeti and stayed at Kati Kati tented camp, did another drive in Serengeti for the morning, then on to Ngorongora Wildlife Lodge. Spent the next day in the crater and then to Kili airport for 2000 hr. flight out. Our driver/guide (Abdul) was very good, with many years experience, good English, sense of humour, and great sense of where to find the animals. He was safety conscious and treated us all with respect, and we felt very safe and "looked after" for the 4 days.He found several fresh kills, surrounded by lions/leopards...amazing!! All our accommodations were excellent and meals were as well. No complaints. I would not hesitate to recommend Sunny Safaris, Jessica Simon and Abdul as a winning combination, and found the price was very reasonable for what we received. A very memorable experience.
