An unforgettable experience and best Safari Trip ever!
We had unforgettable experience with the Zohar team! These guys were awesome from the very beginning. We had several offers from several safari companies and the Zohar’s one was the best in every aspect – price, transfers, parks, lodges, trips duration, just everything. If you want something special for your safari trip, you just tell them and be sure they will do their best to fulfill your wishes. We were in Tanzania in October and had so many flight cancellations and plan changes because of Covid-19 and Zohar’s team were very helpful and responsive to our messages and they even offer us a free stay at their office, in case we have another cancelled flight.
Our guide Ahmed was an extraordinary person, he knows not just everything about animals, nature, geography and the culture of Tanzania, but he was really open-minded and also extremely knowledgeable in numerous areas, so which made the safari even more pleasant and enjoyable. We had so much time for ourselves to enjoy the animals in their habits in the beautiful nature of Tanzania. During our safari we managed to see the Big 5 and all of the other animals we wanted to see. We really enjoyed our safari game in each park, but we definitely fell in love with Serengeti. The Embalakai Tent in Serengeti was incredible, the food there was probably the best compared to the other lodges. We even had a company in Serengeti for one of our nights – a roaring pride of 10+ lions. Everyone deserves to experience this at least once in a lifetime.
In summary if you’re looking for a safari tour in Tanzania, this is probably the best one! Don’t waste time of researching and just book with these amazing guys. This team is there to help you and to make your safari experience memorable.
Big thanks to Lilian, Jacky and Ahmed! Thank you guys for everything and hope we see again in the future

Wonderful honeymoon experience!
My wife and I spent a 4 days safari (4 nights). We visited Tarangire, Serengeti Park and Ngorongoro crater. Day after day, we were astonished by everything we were discovering and learning.
Lilian is super friendly and professional and she makes you feel like you are really well taken care off. Before the start of the trip, during the trip, and after the trip, the communication with Lilian was very good.
Our special thanks goes to our Guide Solomon, who was informative, knew his way and was excellent in spotting animals. Above all he made us feel welcomed and comfortable from the very first day, which is why he was not only a perfect guide but a wonderful travel companion. It was amazing to see him as excited as us when experiencing uncommon wildlife scene.
We saw all big five and attended very special scenes: a cheetah chasing a baby gazelle, a lion and a lioness mating, cheetahs devouring a wildebeest.
The lodges during safari were excellent and exceeded our expectations. Every day we got served a nice hot lunch with proper cutlery and even some wine while most group just had a lunchbox.
We definitely recommend Zohar Afriacan Safari, if you are looking for a private trip that is tailored as per your needs and wishes.

Unforgettable once in a lifetime experience
These 8 days were just perfect. It is simply impossible to describe how it felt to do this safari. Every day was different but every single minute was amazing. We enjoyed these days fully and our guide Ahmed made our trip so much fun!
Seeing all these wild animals from so close- one can never forget this. We are so grateful we could have experienced this.

Thank you for making our honeymoon safari an amazing and lifetime experience!
We are so happy to have booked our Safari with Zohar. This was our honeymoon so we wanted to make it very special but we only had around 4 weeks to plan it. Thanks to Lilian and Zohar, our experience was beyond amazing.
From the very first moment, Lilian was very supportive, answering all our questions and giving us many tips. We had received quotes from other operators offering only tented camps for even higher prices, but it was until we found Zohar that we finally got the feeling that they didn't want to just sell us something, but rather making it a beautiful experience for us at a very reasonable price.
We were a bit worried that due to the Corona situation we would not be able to travel and would have to change our plans or cancel at the last-minute. Lilian was very understanding and open to changes if it would be necessary.
We ended up having a customized safari withing our budget, staying at very nice accomodations (can highly recommend Serengeti Serena Lodge and The Retreat at Ngorongoro) and having a lifetime experience. We had nothing to worry about, from the moment we were picked from the airport until we were dropped off on the last day, Zohar took care of everything.
Our driver Ahmed was super knowledgeable about animals, flora and in general about Tanzania. He was also very nice, easy-going and fun. It was really impressive how easy he could spot animals!
Many many thanks to all the Zohar team for making our honeymoon safari so amazing!

Book with Zohar for an unforgettable trip
I can not recommend Zohar tour enough. From the moment I reached out to them I knew they would make our trip amazing. Lilian is super friendly and professional and she makes you feel like you are really well taken care off.
My fiance and myself booked two tours with Zohar: A 6 day Kilimanjaro climb and a 5 days safari. Both experiences were amazing.
For Kilimanjaro, Lilian kept answering our newbies questions as we had never done anything similar before. She was very prompt in giving us advice which made the preparation for the trek a smooth affair. The trek itself was a private trek with a crew of 12 people. I cannot stress how much the crew we had did and all the hard work they do every day while keeping a smile on their faces. The crew we had (team Simba) was amazing. From the leader to the porter. They sang, smiled and made our trek such a nice experience. I had emailed Liliane about my intention to propose to my then girlfriend and they went the extra mile to provide me with a banner to ask her to marry me as well as champagne. The food on the trek was better than I could imagine. They made the proposal than extra special. If you're climbing kili ask for team Simba.
For the safari, our guide Mohamed was amazing. I have never spend time with someone with that much knowledge about wildlife. Being a bit nerdy, I loved all the nice trivia bits he kept sharing throughout the trip. Every day we got served a nice hot lunch with proper cutlery and even some wine while most group just had a packed lunch which made the experience feel very luxurious. Mohamed was great at spotting animals and we got to see a wildebeest migration, the big 4 (couldn't find a rhino) and so much more.
Overall Zohar helped us have one of our most rewarding trip.
Thank you to the entire team.

Beautiful memories for life thanks to Leonhard
My wife and me booked a private 6-day luxury safari with Lilian and her crew from Zohar African Safaris in November. The reasons why we chose them was the responsiveness, great communication and their selection of parks (Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro) and lodges (Arusha Serena, Maramboi, Kubu Kubu, Ngorongoro Serena) for reasonable prices.
We couldn't be happier with our decision as we experienced a seamless and customized guest journey from pick-up, briefing, safari and drop-off at the airport. Everyone from the crew went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and accommodate to our every request.
A special highlight of our tour, on top of our incredible animal sightings and the beautiful accommodations, was our safe driver and super knowledgeable guide Leonhard. Always on time, always thinking a step ahead, anticipating where to spot the animals best, always in good mood, always prepared, never tired (don't know how he does this, honestly), he had an answer to every little question, spotted every tiny bird from far away and could tell what it was. We could not only benefit from his knowledge, his studies and experience but also from his great passion for animals and nature. We clearly felt that to him, it's not just a job but a pleasure to track, spot, explain game and its behavior because, quote, "every minute in the bushes brings fascinating changes". Ask for Leonhard when booking!
Apart from that, the jeeps used by Zohar are very comfortable and have windows that open wider than most other safari jeeps we saw.
The cherry on top of our safari was the surprise sun-downer organized in the wild for our anniversary.
We can fully recommend booking with Zohar Safaris and will do so again when we come back to Tanzania!

DO NOT HESITATE JUST BOOK!
I will start by saying I travel, A LOT and I have never used a travel company let alone a safari company. So needless to say I was nervous and was not sure what to expect! Zohar African Safaris completely blew any expectations I had out of the water! They are so kind, understanding and patient and that was before the trip even happened! Lilian made sure that all my needs were met, and ensured I had a trip of a lifetime! I could not recommend Zohar Safaris more! I can not wait to go back to Tanzania, and book with Zohar again! If you are hesitant to book don't be! Book you will not regret it, and for an extra special experience ask for David! He was the absolute best safari guide!!

The trip of a lifetime
Beginning months before our arrival in Tanzania, Lilian and the Zohar team helped customize our trip to ensure we would see and do everything we desired. Our guide and driver, Amhed was extremely knowledgeable and navigated the African Bush as if it were his neighborhood. Each day he would ask what we wanted to see the most, and every day he delivered amazing results. The tented camps, Tortilis and Chaka were above and beyond what we expected. Luxury in the bush best describes them. And if Ngorongoro is on your itinerary, I highly recommend upgrading to a lodge on the crater rim. From beginning to end this was a trip of a lifetime all thanks to the team at Zohar! Asante Sana!
