4 days Safari
We had a 4 days Safari with Bestday Safari, everything was very well organized. We had a great guide who assisted us during these 4 days and made sure that we see everything. We visited Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti. I have only very good memories and can recommend everyone Bestday Safari

Best One Day Safari Ever!!
This was my mother's first trip to Africa and both of our first safari tours, and we had an exceptional time with Bestday Safaris. Despite it being a quick one day tour within the Tarangire National Park, we saw elephants, ostriches, zebras, baboons, giraffes, warthogs, impalas, and water buffaloes to name a few. Stopping at a Maasai village afterwards was and extra special bonus. Louis our guide was very knowledgeable and personable, and Peter was extremely professional, responsive, and friendly. The next time I come back, I'll definitely have to do a longer safari with them, but for our tight schedule it was perfect. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone thinking about doing a safari, you won't regret it.
Best company every - Thank you for this amazing safari!
We had the best trip ever. Communication with Peter was great, he replies immediately and answers every question. That makes planning your safari very easy, thank you!
As we arrived in Arusha, Peter met up with us at the hotel to arrange all the details. We had a look at the car the day before the safari, so we knew that everything was fine and we had a reliable car. Everything, from the very first contact to our last day on safari was simply amazing. We are so glad we chose bestday, the driver Roman was such a nice guy, a very good driver who is very patient and knows a lot about safaris. We would always choose bestday for our next trip, it is a very reliable company, we would always support again. Thank you Peter & Roman for making our safari a real authentic experience!!

We had a blast with Bestday!
My husband and I took the 5D4N safari trip to Serengiti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. Bestday was super reliable.
1. Pre-trip communication: The company was very prompt in replying to us and addressing all our concerns on visa, hotels, itineraries. Till the last day we could make changes to the arrangements. Thanks to Peter for the smooth communication!
2. Pick up and drop off: We didn't have to wait to be picked up when we landed at Kilimanjaro airport. The drivers are professional and hospitable.
3. Choice of accomodation: This was a huge factor for us to go with Bestday. They offered rates for the premium hotels in Tanzania that no one else did. We stayed at Four Seasons, Kati-Kati camp and Lemala camp, all completely taken care of without any headache of check-in and check-out.
4. Guide: This was the single most important factor that could have made our trip good or bad. Our guide 'Six' was very experienced, professional and super accomodating. He has been a guide for 17+ years and could spot animals where we would normally not have been able to. He was not pesky like the other guides and not once did he complain about us not visiting side attractions where he was probably getting commission. Six was an absolute delight sharing stories about his safari experiences with us and became family after 5 days. Our park entrances and other sightseeing were so hassle-free because of him. Big thumbs up to him!

Certainly the "Bestdays" - well deserve the name
Excelent organization as well as Excelent guide and very careful driver.
Ethiopean Airlines lost the suitcase and Bestday retrieved it while we were having fun at the Safari.
This is called Excelent service.
We took the 4 Days Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongorno Safari and enjoyed it immensely.
The Safari vehicle was well maintained and the selection of lodges and tented camp proved to be very satisfying.

Trip of a lifetime to the summit of Kilimanjaro
Peter and his team we extremely easy to deal with from our initial inquiry about a Kilimanjaro trek and remained patient and professional throughout, despite our apprehension and nerves ahead of such a taunting trek.
We were given plenty of relevant information ahead of the trip and things such as the packing list proved to be accurate. Peter was also very helpful when we had additional questions.
The hotel accommodation (Mount Meru Hotel, Arusha) before and after the trek was first rate whilst being very friendly and relaxed.
Our guides were very knowledgeable, attentive and keen to ensure that our trek was a safe success.
The porters were nothing short of superhuman. Please make sure you tip them (and the rest of the crew) generously as they do an incredible job in often tough conditions.
I would highly recommend the 7 day version of the Kilimanjaro trek.
A big thanks to Peter and his team.

best safari experience possible!!
I can 100% recommend best day safari. from the start to end of the experience, they were nothing but the best! extremely professional people involved with this company and excellent planning and execution. since we started planning our safari, peter was extremely timely and helpful in his responses and recommendations. he clearly knows his line of work well and is excellent in customer service. he set up a very well timed 4 day safari for us because we were short on time, but we didn't feel like we missed out on anything. the first day our jeep developed technical issues and they immediately brought a new jeep for the next day which experienced no issues. also, the first night, our transfer "hotel" was not up to our standards (actually it was really scary, loud and dilapidated) and as soon as we told peter, he changed our transfer hotel for the return trip without any questions asked and this hotel was very nice! we booked the premium package and all of our hotels during the safari were excellent. like really once in a life time type stays at each place with insane views, service and great food. the only thing I didn't like was the boxed lunches from this grade A hotels. it was disappointing to get a box full of nasty packaged foods like chips/candy/crap I would never eat otherwise. these lunches need to be revamped asap, given these hotels are charging 400-500$ nightly rates!!!!! otherwise the breakfasts and dinners provided were truly excellent. I want to mention though the real standout of our experience was our guide, Gottfried. he was SO SO educated in all things safari including finding and identifying animals/landscape/answering literally any question you may have. he was truly wonderful! you could tell he loved his job and was very good at it, very impressive knowledge and you could tell he really wanted us to have the best experience possible on our safari. he wasn't just there to drive us around maybe happen to run into some animals. he went out of his way to find the rare animals and explain every last detail about animals/landscape/culture/everything possible!! this safari was the experience of a lifetime and other than the first transfer "hotel" we stayed at and the gross boxed lunches from the high end hotels, I would not change a thing (also keep in mind the safari operator has nothing to do with the lunches, it is up to the hotels). if you have a chance to book the premium experience, I would say it is worth the money, especially at the lake manyara and ngorngoro hotels because they are truly once in a lifetime stays. I give highest recommendations to anyone looking to book with best day safari and we are already planning our next trip with them ! (hopefully kiliminjaro!)

7 days / 6 nights (Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire)
The Bestday team is very customer-service oriented. Peter met me at the hotel on the first day in Arusha, came the following day to see me off, and checked in with me on the final day to make sure I was happy with the experience. The driver/guide, Godfrey, has an encyclopedic knowledge of East African wildlife and superb eyesight. Bestday arranged excellent accommodation (Eileen's Trees Inn, Serengeti Sopa Lodge and Rhino Lodge) and dealt with the minor problems encountered quickly and effectively. You won't be disappointed going on safari through this operator.
