A nice experience (after the diarrhoea)
4/5

The pre-trip communication was good, with Evelyn being a quick and helpful responder. This was important as Air Tanzania changed our flight time by 4 hours, which would have resulted in us missing the first day of the tour. Her quick replies helped us make a decision to get a different flight.

The safaris were great - a great number of animals and we saw something interesting each time we got into the car. Having done many safaris, the guide wasn't as enthusiastic or informative as I expected. He also sometimes didn't explain his decisions - we passed a herd of elephants at speed and I hadn't seen any that day - it turned out that he was getting us quickly to see a leopard, but that message wasn't relayed at the time. Nonetheless, he made us feel safe and looked after us the whole time.

The food was reasonable considering the cook only had one hob to use. The cook was very helpful, particularly when I was sick, and I was a bit horrified to find that he had to sleep in the kitchen and didn't have his own tent or share with the guide.

Having had diarrhoea for about 24 hours in the Serengeti, I would recommend that toilet roll is taken in the car. I got lucky that someone else gave me some of theirs.

Overall we had a very nice time.

Good safari, great customer service
4/5

We went for a 10 day safari, 3 in kenya on the Maasai Mara, with then a transfer to Arusha and several days more of safari, including Ngorogoro and the Serengetti.

Evelyn for 7 wonders is great, she took care of everything and if there was a small issue she solved it straight away. Accomodations were all as advertised and sometimes better. Staff on the safari's was good (though our kenyan driver Benson was a bit of a hustler)

all in all would definitely recommend

Uncredible Safari
4/5

We had a wonderful safari, we‘ve seen many animals, not just the Big Five. Often we could see the animals up close, elephants, lions, cheetahs, leopards, hippos... Our driver and guide, Hoza, has brought us many unforgettable moments, sometimes we were alone for a long time. Hoza was very welcoming, he was very knowledgeable and knew where to find the animals. He has patiently fulfilled every photo request and my wish to see also little elephants.
Evelyn and her team took care of everything in advance and after the Safari, we werde very happy with the service.
The only downside was the partly worn and broken equipment (chairs!). In addition, the sanitary facilities on the campsite in the Serengeti were extremely neglected, some of the doors of the toilets were hung and there was no light ...

Great way to see all animals up and close!!
4/5

What a wonderful experience. We went on a camping safari to get the best exposure we could get. It worked. Camping sites, food, transportation were all great. Evelyne was really good in organizing everything for us. Thank you!
The memory of waking up surrounded by zebras in our campsite will stay with me forever. Thanks!!

Amazing Safari with an amazing guide and people!
4/5

We had a wonderful Safari and a funny Time with our guide 'Good Luck'! Everything was very well organized from the pick up from the airport until the getting back to the airport! All drivers were in time!
We also had luck with the other Safaritourists in our car, cause they all were almost as old we are - about 24- and so we had a lot of fun with them in our car and they also became friends!
Except the mix of Lodge guests - me and my girlfriend were the only ones- and camping guests in our car was a bit complicated and not that good organized, cause our driver had to drive us to the Lodges which were far away to the Camping and so mostly we arrived late in the lodges or camping!But think you will do it better next time! ;)
Although we enjoyed the 4- Day Safari Tour through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti a lot and have seen almost all of the Big Five - except a Rhino- but that didn´t matter!We had one of the Best Times ever there!
Best Regards
Thomas + Ruth

2-day trip to Mikumi with 2 families and lots of kids
4/5

We took a 2-day trip to Mikumi from Dar and this included pick up and return to Dar-es-Salaam. The coordination and logistics were handled fantastically both by the 7Wonders HQ staff as well as their tour guides/drivers. We had 7 kids in the party ranging from 18mths to 17 years old so we could have been quite a handful but they managed our transportation and drives into the park seamlessly. Only possible downside was the monotony of the food provided. Nevertheless, we saw all the animals we had wished to see including a pride of lions thanks to the guides' impeccable tracking. Highly recommend.

Our awesome guide made the most of our time on safari.
4/5

Going with 7 Wonders Safari was a great decision. When comparing prices with other operators, the price at 7 Wonders were much lower and I am sure our service was on par with any other operator on the savannah. Evelyn, who helped us organize via email was helpful with all our requests and inquiries right up to the moment we arrived in Arusha. Very flexible, understanding and easy to work with.

Our guide George was 1st rate and had a plethora of knowledge about the flora and fauna we encountered. He definitely took our experience to another level with his experience and confidence. He also made sure we got to see the Big 5 safari sightings (Lion, Leopard, Rhino, Elephant and Cape Buffalo).

The vehicle was reliable and comfortable. The lodges which we stayed were 1st rate was well.

If we were to safari in this region again, our search would start with 7 Wonders Safari.

A fine adventure at a reasonable rate.
4/5

the "budget" group safari that i joined through seven wonders easily met expectations. travel in kenya (nairobi to amboseli park) was arranged by michael of ancient wild safaris in nairobi; he provided a driver and cook who were courteous and knowledgeable. the trip into tanzania and the serengeti also included helpful guide and cook and was deftly organized by evelyn of seven wonders in arusha. as advertised, we camped at private and public sites. accommodations were rough-hewn but adequate, and attendants did the heavy lifting by preparing wholesome meals and comfortable sleeping arrangements. the wildlife was bodaciously abundant and the trackers knew where to find it. the safari was an edifying and memorable experience. however, because of some unpleasantness regarding gratuities for attendants, i recommend that safari organizers provide clear guidelines to clients and employees regarding these voluntary remunerations to avoid misunderstandings.
