Seven Wonders Safari gave us an Amazing experience. Thank you Evelyn and George!
We had a seventeen day safari with Seven Wonders. Words can't describe just how wonderful the experience was or how great Seven Wonders Safaris was. Evelyn and George met us in Rowanda and Nicolas took us to our Gorilla trek. We were there for five days with one day of Gorilla trekking. We did get to see the Gorilla's in the wild and it was an amazing experience. The tourism for the Gorilla's is providing the funding that is helping to preserve their habitat and protect them. We also did a walking tour in Kigali that was very good. We were in Rowanda for 5 days and flew to Arusha for another 12 days driving with George. He was AMAZING. One of the kindest men you will ever meet. His Love, Knowledge and Passion for the animals and joy at being able to share them with his guests was evident in his every action. His ability to spot animals at great distances while navigating rough roads was uncanny. He has some sort of Spidy sense! He wanted to take us off the beaten paths and give us a more authentic experience.
We went back and forth with Evelyn early on to customize our trip and accommodations. She was wonderful to work with and delivered an incredible experience. We wanted a local, smaller, Tanzanian based safari company and feel so lucky that we entrusted this once in a life time experience with Seven Wonders Safari's!
Advice;
We upgraded a few hotels and were very happy with our accommodations but I would discuss having hotels close to the game drives or even tented camps closer to the game drives.
Make sure the company does not have mileage limits. Seven Wonders does not but some companies limit how many miles their guides can drive. This can mean that you may not get out away from the crowds.
Bring more cash for tipping. Small bills, lots of 5's. You can easily go through $1,000 a week in tips. And if you get George as your guide you will want to tip him as much as you can......
Thank You Evelyn and George, from the bottom of our hearts. If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!

Experience the Great Migration
Dealing with Seven wonders and Evelyn to arrange my safari for the great migration was a pleasure. I booked within 2 days of arriving in the country and everything was handled from airport pick up right down to the drop off. The experience of visually seeing the great migration was humbling and profound. We were lucky we saw the big five and also an array of rare birds. If you choose to do the overnight camping rather than the lodge options its perhaps more comfortable to bring a few items such as torch, sleeping bag and repellent. An unforgettable experience.

Great experience with great nature!
We were extremely happy with our journey. Thanks to our guide, Hoza, and our chef, Godson.
Hoza is a person who is both strict and polite yet very professional and informative about various topics. Though the tour company is known for highly skilled tour guides, it is rare to find a guide such as Hoza, who is a professional and can care for all customers. I enjoyed casual conversation with Hoza about lifestyle in Tanzania which was eye-opening.
All meals prepared by Godson were delicious! Especially I loved the zucchini soup which I now regret not asking him a recipe. I think he tried his best to cook food that accepted by most diversity, which included spaghetti to rice. I appreciate that, but I wanted to enjoy some of more local recipes too!
The tour itself was equally good! With our tight schedule, Everlyn, the coordinator, restructured the whole travel so that we would not miss a thing while we are in great nature which was truly thoughtful. We saw the big five, the great migration of zebras and wild beasts, the endless plains of Serengeti, the animal paradise of Ngorongoro. Each of the experiences was astonishing. Everything I saw made me speechless. This tour truly is a life experience.
Though--I cannot emphasize more that this is none of the tour company nor guide's fault, yet, unfortunately, our travel companions were (simply put) terrible. They were gullible, arrogant, filthy, ugly, uneducated, and shameless African Americans who cannot respect this great nature but constantly murmur about the most trivial "problem" they can find to bother both the guide and other customers. (If you happen to be one of those who cannot show some respects to the locals/culture or only care about how many "likes" your selfies can get, do me a favor and don't travel at all. They are truly a cancer of tourism.) I feel sorry for Hoza for what he had to go through; regardless, he tried his best to accommodate all those uneducated swine while trying to be fair to the rest of the pack. That is, after driving more than 11 hours of bumpy roads of safaris! It was truly shameful! I feel sorry for the tour company, that a customer can freely pick a company, but not vice versa.
All in all, we were very happy with what we experienced and all of the services which we receive from Seven Wonder Safari and Hoza. With all the hospitality which they offered, we now only wish to come back again to Tanzania in the future (perhaps with longer periods with a little more flexible schedule), and when we do, hopefully, we do have a better tour companion.

An excellent company to work with
7 Wonders safaris is an excellent safari company to work with. Evelyn, Maurice and George were very responsive and thorough in responding to my questions. Their long history and experience ensures that you will receive a quality Safari. Rather than camping, we chose the mid comfort accommodations. We were very, very happy with the ones they chose for us. Especially the tented camp in the Serengeti, run by very professional young Maasai men, was outstanding. The Rhino lodge, in the Ngorongoro crater, had a magnificent dining room with two back to back fireplaces. The chef there provided some of the best food we had eaten in Tanzania.
We appreciated having Fadili as our 4 x 4 Safari driver, he had decades of experience and it showed in his handling of the vehicle and safety on the road. He also has attended Safari Guide school and was great at spotting the animals, birds and pointing out special trees and plants.
We highly recommend their excellent services,
Connie and Paul

Budget Safari in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater
Myself and 3 friends did a 3 day/2 night safari with Seven Wonders in July 2019. We are all students so our main reason for choosing Seven Wonders for our safari was their prices - they were definitely the cheapest of all the companies we looked at. We chose to joint up with other people to bring the cost down and were matched with a lovely Spanish couple. I am very glad to say the lower price tag in no way compromised our trip. We saw a almost every animal you could think of over the 3 days (lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebra, giraffe, even a leopard and a rhino and many many more). We were definitely very lucky that we saw so much, but our driver was great and really put the effort in to ensure we saw as much as possible.
The lower cost of this safari meant our truck was a little bit older than the other ones we saw in the park and our food at meal times probably wasn't as fancy as people got with other companies, but honestly that makes we barely noticed the difference! We each still had a window seat in the truck and our meals were delicious and we camped in the same camp sites as everyone else so if I was to do another safari I would definitely go with a budget company like seven wonders again.
Evelyn was really easy to deal with during the booking process, she answered all of my questions and was very attentive to our needs both before and after the safari.
So for a budget safari I could not recommend Seven Wonders enough, it really was worth every penny!

Unforgettable experience
My wife and I spent amazing 5-day camping safari with Seven Wonders!
The communication with Evelyn was very efficient and clear from the beginning. Our guide Hossa was super professional and we saw the Big Five and like 20+ new mammals. Guide's wildlife knowledge, dinner stories and customer understanding were on really good level. He really pushed hard to get a journey of a lifetime. Special thanks to our chef Gottfied also, who managed to prepare delicious dinner in basic camping environment.
We saw cheetah family chasing and making a meal of warthogs. Lioness was chasing on buffalos and hyenas feasting on zebra carcass. Authentic and amazinf stuff!
I had really high expetations to the safari, but all of them were exceeded with 7 Wonders. Highly recommended!
