Amazing!!!
The communication was awesome but that did not even compare to the service, delicious food and accommodations. Our guide Jacob is so knowledgeable and we even spotted 15 lions and a leopard taking her prey up a tree.
We were so spoiled and the money was so worth it as we were cared for 24 hours/day.

Simply amazing Safari - highly recommendable tour operator! We will be back for sure with Zohar!
Together with my husband and two friends of ours, we decided to do a 5-days luxury safari with Zohar African Safaris and we are so so happy we chose them! Our experience has been wonderful and we will definitely come back to Tanzania for further exploring, for sure with Zohar African Safaris. Lilian, the founder of the company, did an awesome job with planning our trip; she was always very responsive and chose the best trip route as well as accommodation – providing us with the most amazing level of customer service! We wanted to change one of our domestic flights on short notice and even if we had not booked the flights via Lilian, she was super supportive and sorted everything out for us. Our guide Ahmed showed us the Serengeti with so much dedication and joy – we could not have imagined a better and more knowledgeable guide than him. His persistence and expertise made it possible for us to see all the Big 5 as well as the migration during our first Safari – what an experience! Thank you very much to everybody at Zohar African Safaris who made our trip unforgettable! We will definitely be back with you guys, next time for climbing the Kilimanjaro. We can only highly highly recommend Zohar African Safaris!

A Lifetime Memory
Upon arrival, we were treated with a delicious homemade lunch. Lilian was such a good chef that we wanna learn some cooking skills from her:) She's so detail orientated and had a good understanding of my needs that I don't need to specify my requests one by one several times. I had additional concerns and Lilian was warm hearted to help out with them. Compared to other operators that I asked, Zohar acted quickly and answered questions one by one accurately. I decided to go with Zohar team based on their patience and quick responses. My decision was absolutely correct. My friends and I had a wonderful time in Tanzania. Even our tour guide Ahmed was the most handsome and tallest guy in Serengeti plain haha:) We saw bunch of big cats like lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Even more, we were so lucky that we saw them making babies!! We were a little worried that not much time for us to do safaris and watch animals (we only had two full days for game drives) but we almost saw everything in just one day. Thanks to Ahmed and Zohar for bringing us such an amazing experience. It was so nice to have hot meals and British tea time instead of cold lunch boxes while we were in Serengeti. Zohar met our expectations exactly. No worries, just go with them!!! They will bring you a five star experience!

Unforgettable Moment!
I traveled with Zohar for four days with my parents and my son who has just turned two years old before the trip. Since it was a family-unite trip, I gave Lillian, the great boss, many questions to fulfill everyone's requests and amended our plan several times. She was a very tender-hearted to answer every questions and have a strong will to help us with her great knowledge!
Our guide, David was very smart and patient. After my son had a stomach problem on at the first night, I was considering to not to go to safari to avoid risks, although my son looked like fine. David watched my son very carefully and suggested us to continue our way with an option to go back to the town to see a reliable doctor he knows immediately after my son got worse.
My son recovered well and we all satisfied with unforgettable experience.
To travel with a very active toddler did not go smooth but he adjusted it accordingly to make sure all of us are happy. After all, he became a friend of my boy!
I do thank to Zohar team for taking care of us!

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE- AMAZING SERVICE!!
We did a tailored 7 day tour with Zohar African Safaris. Lillie organized everything for us and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. We started in Ngorongoro, following day from Lake Easy we went hunting with Hazabe tribe (unique experience!), then did Serengeti for 4 nights and the driver took us to the border with Kenya where another driver was waiting for us to follow with 2 days in Masai Mara.
We saw everything there is to see (except Rhinos since they are very very difficult). We saw cheetahs hunting, leopards hunting, we saw cheetahs, leopards and Lions Cubs; we saw great migration herds crossing the Mara river, incredible!!!
Our guide in Tanzania David, was very nice and knew a lot about animals, he took the time to explain and show us everything; highly recommend him.
Zohar's staff would call us and text us making sure everything was ok, we were very well taken care of.
Lillie (the owner) offered us accommodation at her house for our first night because we arrived 2 am. She waited for us with food and even did an amazing breakfast the following day. She made sure there was personalized wine for our 8th anniversary and arranged for a surprise cake and dance in one of the hotels, incredible!
Not only did Lillie organize all our safari in Tanzania and Kenya, but she also helped me get a better rate in a hotel in Diani, a hotel I wasn’t even booking through her! she took the time to contact them and got me a 60 USD discount! She really goes above and beyond to help!!
I 100% recommend Lillie and her staff! Not only the service was great, but before the trip she took the time to really adapt to the itinerary I wanted.
Thanks for everything and keep the great work!! it is amazing to feel everything has been taken care of!

An amazing experience with Zohar African Safaris that we will remember our entire life !
My Girlfriend and I booked our Safaris with Zohar African Safaris 2 months before our trip Summer 2019.
I e-met Lilian and Jackline by email with Safari booking, who have been so nice and very much available for any question / requests we had.
We felt immediately confident and reassured about the profesionalism of Zohar African Safari.
Taylor Made is really what charachterises Zohar African Safaris.
To sum up : profesionnal, friendly, well equiped (modern vehicle with fridge, binoculars, comfort) great advices, adventure, cosy, top food, TaylorMade).
Jackline organized for us exactly what we wanted, giving us a lot of detais and advices in advance to answer our questions. We did a 3 days safaris (Tarrangire, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro crater) - with 2 nigtht in 2 amazing and charming lodges (quality, comfort, private ensuites) near the parks.
We also had our own safari guide for ourself - David, who has more than 15 years of experience, and who has been an absolute star during these 3 days. Available for all explanations, funny, profesionnal, local and open minde, ginving us our intimacy as well. So very flexible, listening and naturally understanding our expectations. We managed to see Lions (males and femals), buffalos, elephants, rhino, hippo, girafes, zebras, gnus, pumbas, monkeys, pink flamingos, and so much more! . David managed to see a Lion 500 meters before the Lion actually cross the path where we were minutes later. Unbelievable experience.
Lilian also organized for us to come to pick us up in the night at the airport (where Mathew was waiting for us - as well as driving us back to the airport after the safari). We stayed One night at their hotel in their office on arrival as well as after the safari before our early morning flight back to France. And we must say that Jackline is an excellent cook, and Lili makes the best samosas I ever tasted :) . So also very much delighted for having stayed at their hotal prior and after the safari.
We realised that Zohar African Safaris is very much Taylor Made, exclusive and local, which is really what we wanted. we were very much satisfied about the price we paid for the experience and services we had - taking into account having our own safari guide David for ourselves, showing us all the beauty of the parks and, great lunches in the nature with homemade food (vegetable, meat, coffe, tea, soft drinks, possibility to bring wine, etc). when most of other tourists were having hotel's lunch boxes. Modern vehicle as well etc.
We coul not be more satisfied about our safari with Zohar African Safaris. Thank you so much Lili. Wishing you all the best for the future. You now have 2 new ambassadors in France ;)
You can check on Tripadvisor (where I have added some pictures as well :) ).
I recommend 100% Zohar African Safari :)

Like a family
From the moment I first contacted Zohar to the last (actually there isn't a last yet as we are still exchanging messages) I felt welcomed and important to the Zohar family. Lilian has been amazing in organizing and accommodating my group. We had to postpone our initial trip (July 2018) due to an injury to one of the members of the group and Lilian had no problem with this. She allowed us to give dates for a year later at no extra cost. We were welcomed into their homes with home cooked meals the night before we started our climb up Mt. Kilimanjaro. The staff that supported us in the climb were first rate with all of them being friendly and helpful. The guides (Imran and Gideon) were very knowledgeable and experienced. The cook (Haruna) prepared excellent meals with more food than we could eat. The porters were very strong and honest. From the first moment to the last on the climb, it was an outstanding experience.
I am planning on organizing another trip with Zohar next year to see the Serengeti and I know it will be excellent.

ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING!
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful experience on a 2-day safari organized by Zohar African Tour. We went to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and a Masai Village. The level of attention was oustanding from all, including Lilian, Jackline, and Frank. Lilian is the big boss and she gave us a warm welcome as soon as we arrived and even had organized a home cooked meal from her house for our first day at the safari! Jackline was attentive since day one with helping organize this adventure, getting us the best accommodation, giving us a warm welcome as well and personally checking up with us after the safari was over. Frank was our ranger - an absolutely AMAZING, funny, genuine, and honest man. He spent both days with us making sure we get the best experience possible, accommodating the vehicle to get the best pictures of the animals, and being extremely flexible with our wants! A safari is a breathtaking experience, which can only get better if you let the right people organize it for you. Thank you to the Zohar African Safari team for letting us trust you with this! THANK YOU! We would 100% recommend them and would love to go back ourselves for a longer safari trip to the Serengeti!
