Excellent Experience, Fantastic Guide
Bestday safaris provided a fantastic experience from start to finish. Their logistics, punctuality, and professionalism was first class, from airport pickup to drop off at the hotel following the safari. Our guide Luis was top notch and genuinely cared about customer service and ensuring a successful, education trip. I would not hesitate to recommend Bestday!

Excellent, most helpful and patient tour operator
From the very first minute, the booking process through to the end of the safari, especially Peter and Jackson they were amazing. They catered for our every need since our safari was customised to our liking. They were very patient during the game drives Jackson our guide was most patient and took time to explain and went out of his way to show us.
If I were to go again I would not hesitate to book with Bestday Safaris and would recommend them to anyone.

Amazing Safari
Me and my friend were on a 5-day safari (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire) from 21 to 26 January.
We had amazing time, it was really unforgetable. Guys from Bestdays Safari are so amazing. Driver Charles is really kind and full of knowledge, he gave us a lot of time for taking pictures and enjoying observing animals, he knew exactly where to go to view the wildlife. We had private chef Emanuel, who prepared best food in Tanzania. Everything was really delicious and he was super nice. Charles and Emanuel made this Safari even more special and unforgetable.
Highly recommend!

great experience
I starter talking to Peter through WhatsApp and he was very responsive since the beginning. We did the 4 days/3 nights safari from Arusha to Serengeti. It was an awesome experience, our drive Dida was quiet and a little bit shy in the begging but at the end he shared with us some of his experience and we were able to see all the animals, including leopards and the black rhino. We truly recommend, good cost benefit.

Bestday more like best-holi-day!
We had the most memorable time and have promised to come back for a reunion! or some day in the future when we have kids! We went as a group of four friends (in our 20's - we were't the honeymooner type) who have traveled a lot of the world together. Our safari is definitely one of the best trips we've been on!
Bestday Safaris seemed almost too good to be true when comparing it to other tour operators but it has to be said everything was above board and much better than some experiences which we had heard about.
We did a private four day safari visiting Tarangire National Park on day one, Serengeti on day 2 and 3 and Ngorongoro Crater on day 4. The accommodation type was lodges and tented camping and it was all fit for a princess! The tents had more mirrors than an ordinary hotel room! There was no compromise made to comfort to be able to fall asleep to the sound of a lions purr. The food in all the over-night accommodation was delicious and there was no fear of being left hungry.
Hats off to our safari driver - Louis - he was a true gentleman,was full of knowledge (especially about the wildlife) and looked after us very well! He really made our trip and sang along with our songs and even taught us some Swahili! Asante sana!!
Peter the managing director was extremely professional and made the effort to meet us before and after the trip to ensure our satisfaction!

Superb experience - Couldn't fault it
We booked our Safari with Bestday based on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. We had completed a climb to Kilimanjaro and decided to tack on a safari. Peter was very easy to deal with - very quick to reply to communications and was very clear about everything. Our guide was Jackson was superb - he had fantastic eyesight and was able to point out a variety of animals for us - We saw everything we wanted to see and more. The accomodation was amazing, our only regret was not staying longer. Jackson and Peter - many many thanks for an unforgettable experience

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.

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!)
