Zohar provided us a personalized, amazing, safari with a master knowledgeable animal spotter.
Zohar personalized and tailored our Safari based on what we wanted. Our guide Solomon was a master animal spotter, and we saw babies everywhere. Baby elephants, lions, cheetahs, zebra, wildebeest, giraffes, and hippos. Solomon was so knowledgeable and shared extensive details about the area and of course the animals. Zohar continuously checked in with us to ensure that we had everything we needed while on safari and provided us all the check lists and information we needed to be well prepared for our trip. My friend and I loved the animal check lists and would excitedly review all our sightings at night around the bush tv (fire) as there are so many animals outside the big 5. We loved the lengths Zohar went to reduce waste and environmental impact by providing water bottles and breakfasts/lunches in reusable containers. The accommodations and the food was incredible and beyond anything we ever imagined. It was luxurious with the sound of animals and incredible views all around us. We highly recommend Zohar Safaris.

Excellent 5-Day-Safari in Tanzania (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro)
We (my wife and I) did a 5-day Safari in Tansania and we had an unforgettable time and would suggest Zohar - they did a great job!
We chose a standard tour with small adaptions. We started in Arusha and spent the first night in the beautiful "Mount Meru Game Lodge". We then went to see Tarangire NP and spend a night at Lake Manyara in the very good "Manyaras Secret"-Lodge + a very cool bike Safari with Yuma where we saw herds of wilderbeest and zebras. Next we drove to Serengeti via Ndutu to see the Migration and spent 2 Nights in Nyumbani Luxury Camp, which offers a very familiar (thanks to Moses, Walter and Nkaka) and relaxing atmosphere + excellent food in a great environment. At last we drove to Ngorongoro to visit the National Park (the early morning game drive was a great idea by David) and spent the night in Lions Paw before driving back to Arusha. We are very satisfied and spent an awesome time, thanks to the organisation of Zohar!
-Jackline was responsible for the administrative staff: She always answered very quickly and was very flexible in adapting our programm.
-David was the guide of our tour: He is a very professional and experienced guide and shared his huge knowledge about flora and fauna and Tansania in a very profound and funny way. He was always open to adapt the programm and suggestions to see great nature and avoid tourist traffic.
Due to the perfect team work we had the pleasure to enjoy great nature, impressive animals (lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalos, hippos, wilderbeests, whombats, antilopes,...), nice hotels (we especially liked Mount Meru Game Lodge and Nyumbani Luxury Camp), superb food and realised what great places Tansania can offer and would definetely recommend to do it with Zohar and David as a guide!
Thank you very much (also for the very nice birthday surprise)!

A Wild and Wonderful Experience!
Zohar was the ideal choice for our safari. Our guide, Solomon, was a talented driver and had an incredible eye for the animals. We had sightings with him that would not have been possible in less capable hands. Solomon had a wealth of knowledge, providing the greater context for everything we saw. Every day of the trip gave us an encounter beyond anything we imagined.
The accommodations all exceeded our expectations. We were always comfortable, well fed, and surrounded by natural beauty. There were unique perks to staying inside the parks, like an elephant near the fire pit and late night chatter from nearby lions.
Highly recommend Zohar African Safaris

The best company !
Where to start? We're a young couple who've been traveling the world in search of new discoveries for the past 10 years. We always thought that, with the infinite riches of our planet, we'd never return to the same country twice... except this time! We've now traveled twice with Lilian's team, and each time the experience has been perfect. The team's professionalism, constant attention and kindness are second to none.
Our guide, Solo, is a real gem! His kindness, knowledge and passion for nature and animals made for a truly dream honeymoon. Every day was magical, and we felt like privileged guests.
Comfort was the order of the day: a huge private 4x4, details that made all the difference (blankets, fresh water, unlimited drinks), and lunches fit for a king (hot dishes, unlike others who settle for a simple sandwich).
We'd like to thank the entire Zohar African Safaris team for these unforgettable moments. If you're still hesitating between safari companies, I can guarantee that with Zohar, you'll never be disappointed. It's the best company, without a doubt!

We learned so much with him!

Amazing Travel Experience
The staff was conscientious and careful to help us coordinate our lodging options. The guide Solomon is professional and guided us to a rare sighting of hyenas hunting zebras. The homemade salad was well received by the group.Zohar is a trustworthy tour operator that you can choose with confidence! I will also recommend it to my friends.

Great experience!
Definitely recommended. Exceeded all expectations. Counselling during planning phase was very helpful, the trip went very smooth without any complications. We could enjoy our safari to the fullest.
And most important, we were able to see everything that Tanzania's wildlife can offer, including lion cubs, a baby leopard and even a baby rhino. We were also lucky to witness the migration of wildebeest through the Mara river.
Our guide Tom worked very hard to get us to see al this and was very knowledgeable. He knew when to be where! Definitely recommended as well.

Amazing, efficient and attentive!
I have dreamed about this trip my entire life and I could not be happier with the outcome!
From the beginning Lilian was very attentive and listened to all our requests. She came up with an itinerary that fulfilled all of our requests.
Once we arrived, it was effortless, the entire Zohar team was available to us to help us with any issues or questions we had.
I don’t know about other companies or guides, but Solomon is amazing!!! He got us to all the animals we wanted to see and then some! I just don’t have enough words to describe how good he is! Not only can he find the animals, he knows them all and can lecture on the biology of each species!!
I hope life gives me the chance to repeat this experience, if it does, I will definitely be calling them again.
Thank you for making this dream a reality!!

Responsive, friendly and organized
My experience with Zohar was outstanding….from the moment we started planning the trip with Lilian she was friendly and attentive….she helped guide us through planning for our trip to make it the very best experience. You never had to worry about anything….the moment you walk off the plane(make it through customs…which was easy) you are met by a professional driver. From that moment on you never have to worry about anything….in Zanzibar we had a gorgeous beach front room after that we started our Safari with Salomon ….he was the incredible and that man knew where the animals were ….we saw every animal on our list and some….the Safari camps we stayed at were very nice and the food was delicious….you have to visit …the people are so kind and happy.
We really researched and found Zohar to be the best value for your money…when you reach out to Lilian she will ask you what you want…..Five Star, in the middle or budget and she builds the trip off your answer. I was so happy with the trip I’m already planning the next one….people say coming to Africa is life changing and I can say “It was”!

Magic of Zohar Safaris
From the start at the airport, Zohar reps received my wife and I as if we were family.
Soloman & Mechek were very welcoming. They took us to our Hotel and on the way explained our intinery for the Safari.
Being the first time in eastern Africa, we didin't know what to expect, especially arriving in the dark of night.
We were very pleasantly surprised by the size, decoration and the comfort, of our suit.
The hotel staff were polite and done everything to make sure we were comfortable.
The first day we stayed at the hotel relaxing after a long flight. After breakfast (eggs, bacon, pancakes..etc)
We took a trip in a small boat around the lake in the hotel grounds with one of the staff who eplained why the water was so clear,
it being a source from under ground. The birds many colours and sizes.
He found a camillion on a branch amazing same colour of the leaves.
In the afternoon my wife went on a tour of the hotel grounds with a guide 20/30 minutes.
When she retured and she told me her experience I wished I'd gone as well.
DAY 1 :
Soloman picked us up in a jeep large and comfotable. We set off to the first park
Tarangire National Park. We arrived ther and entered the park and there were elephants and Zebras.
We saw monkeys, babboons,ostrichs, water buffalows and giraffs,
DAY 2 :
Manyara natinal park, this park more dense in vegitation so we were lucky Soloman has Hawk eyes
he can see the invisible animals in the bush. Our hotel Manyaras Secret was truly first class we were there for 2 nights.
Zohar made sure of a celebration with personalise bt champage and the staff singing happy birthday. Heart warming.
DAY 3 :
Ngorongoro Crater the paradise for wild animals, they have everything there and don't need to migrate.
We saw 4 of the big 5, thanks to the keen eyes of Soloman.
Hyena, wilderbeast, zebras, rhino, hippos, elephants, water buffalos, birds of many colours and sizes. elephants, lions, giraffs.
The crater was AMAZING hundreds of zebras & wilder-beasts running to the lake.
DAY 4 :
Visiting a Masai village. Their culture made me feel very humble and respectful of thieir customs. I loved talking to them.
The full experience was mind blowing, Zohar really pushed ALL the buttons to give us an unforgettable experience,
lodges and transport and food in the bush.
Lillian your a diamond and your staff are beyond professional.
We will promote you knowing whosoever books with Zohar will get a first class personal experience.
We will return.
