Absolutely Fantastic
Our December trip with Zara Tours was absolutely fantastic and worth every penny. Spectacular game drives, swanky comfortable 4x4 driven by an expert guide (Musa) and accommodation at their beautiful and crisp lodges located right inside Ngorongoro and Serengeti.
I found no fault in the itinerary as it was well planned with interesting activities the highlight being the game drives. We loved Serengeti the most probably because that's where we spent more time exploring the expansive park. Each day Musa took us to different places for a different experience.

Expectations exceeded
We went on a 6 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara with guide/driver Joseph. He is an expert driver and very good company, with also a good radar of when to provide information and when to Just let you enjoy the moment. The car was super, routes perfect and hotels better than expected, with Ikoma Wildcamp as absolute best.

Exceptionally Good! Forever Etched in My Mind
The wonderful experiences in Tanzania are forever etched in my mind. This is exactly what me and and my partner were looking for.
Experience the wild African bush with an expert guide and then retire in top class lodges in the evenings.
Communication with Mike from reservations was smooth , payments (deposit/final payment) handled with professionalism.
This was a wonderful trip and we are very happy with how everything turned out.
We took lots of photos and I am still sifting them, will be sharing some of our best shots in my update.
Thank you all for such a wonderful safari in Tanzania

Memories made in Tanzania
I have to thank the whole team at Zara Tours for a holiday well planned and perfectly executed by Issa our guide. We did a Zara Serengeti exclusive safari shuttling between Ikoma Wildcamp and Serengeti Safari Lodge (Both Zara Properties)
We had more time to experience Serengeti more intensively as it is a huge park and well endowed with a wide variety of flora and fauna.
The lodges were super-fantastic; a lovely pool and club house at SSL with enchanting cabins. Food was mainly served at the main area however the manager organized for a candlelit dinner at the terrace of our cabin on my wife's birthday.
There are too many nice moments to pen down.
SUPER-FANTASTIC

Kilimanjaro Conquered with Zara Tours
Zara Tours must be the best Kilimanjaro trekking company in Tanzania. They organized a flawless 6 days Machame route trek for the five of us.
The team of guides, cooks and porters was professional and experts everything about Kilimanjaro. We were adequately prepared but this mountain almost beat us but guide Hamisi and his team were equal to the challenge. The friendly nature of the guides kept our spirits up, even during difficult times. I noted the careful and methodical way Hamisi approached everything. Every morning started with health checks then the days briefing over breakfast of that day’s course.
The company gave us very good tents, comfortable mattresses. The chefs served 3 delicious filling meals and snacks.
We did not lack in anything but actually made new friends in Tanzania.

Communication during the planning phase was excellent, Mike was had timely responses and answered our numerous questions in detail. When it came to make payments the system was secure and there were no hidden charges.
Our experience in Tanzania was awesome from start to finish.
The team played their roles extremely well, from the professional friendly guides, porters, chef and toilet duty were excellent. We had reliable excellent equipment and a professionals team with us all through.
We are very happy that we made it safely to the summit.

Unforgettable Kilimanjaro Experience
Zara Tours did a perfect job of organizing our Kilimanjaro trekking trip.
We took the Machame route and it took us six days to get us to the summit.
We had an experienced support crew led by Senior guide Moses assisted by Issa.
The tents were comfortable and the chef cooked nice food.
Thank you for a very well organized trip.

Wonderful Experience on Kilimanjaro thanks to Yohana and Anna!
Very gladly we look back on a great experience on Kilimanjaro. Thanks to our excellent guides Yohana and Anna and the whole team we actually reached the summit. We can recommend Yohana and Anna without reservation. They have a great experience and motivated us. They know very well about mountain guiding but also about vegetation. We have learned a lot and have returned with many beautiful memories of a great time.

Very happy with and impressed by Zara Tours
My wife and I were guided and pampered up Kilimanjaro by Zara tours in September, 2022. We were extremely impressed by and happy with Zara Tours. Our lead and assistant guides, Saidi and Meddi, were genuinely extraordinary. Based on our experience, and the obvious respect the other guides on the mountain had for Saidi, I think we probably had the most qualified lead guide on the mountain. Based on our experience, we absolutely recommend Zara Tours. Pete & Barb in Boise
