Amazing Safari
I was looking for a tour company for safari when recently in Tanzania and thankfully I came across Zohar.
I wanted to travel with a local cpany and not an internally owned company and I was extremely happy with the tour.
Lilian, the founder, was brilliant and very involved in the whe booking process. I was travelling on my own and she really looked after me. Reassured me about the trip and her style was impeccable.
The communication, accomodation choices, food and the 4WD was new and well kept.
There was no problems on the tour and my guide, Solomon was so experienced, knowledgeable, always on time and made my trip fantastic.
If you want a great safari experience in Serengeti, do yourself a favour and speak with Zohar, you won't be disappointed.

an excellent itinerary, great informative guides, wonderful attention to detail and great service
If you want an African safari, go no further than Zohar. 9 of us travelled to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. The drivers were informative, friendly, and great drivers. The vehicles were spotless, well maintained and very well appointed. The accommodation selections were excellent especially singing grass camp in Serengeti. We had a wonderful trip, saw all the animals' multiple times and got a real insight into Africa.
Our group had people from 90 years old down to 15 years old and Zohar catered for all of us very well.

Highly professional, with a incredible knowledge of the wildlife and culture.
The experience we had with Zohar Safaris was incredible. The experience s and memories they enabled us to create were beyond our greatest hopes. The drivers were highly professional, taking care of everyone’s needs and making sure we saw an enormous number of game. They were extremely knowledgeable about the local culture, flora and fainter and their extensive experience as guides lead us to many animal sightings.
They took care of the elderly members of the group with patience, ensuring everyone had a wonderful experience.

10 out of 10 Experience!
We went on a Honeymoon Private Safari tour. We booked with Zohar approx. One
month before our trip started. After reviewing some options online, we decided to
go for a mid-range Safari experience. Here are some of our thoughts and experiences.
Why Zohar?
We got in touch with roughly 10 Safari Tour operators. Zohar was the only one who
answered all our questions and recommended a change in our itinerary (for the
better). With a mid-range experience, we were expecting to have at least
2-3 in tented camps and not lodges. Zohar told us there was only a small price
difference between tented camps and lodges, so we upgraded - Again, Zohar was the only tour operator informing us about this circumstance.
The Accommodation
Zohar arranged stays at the “Serena Lodges” for all six nights. The lodges were clean and comfortable, with 24/7 hot water, and a mini-fridge, some of them also had a pool. Every Lodge has a bar where you can chill out before and after dinner.
The Food
We had three meals included. Breakfast and Dinner were usually at the Lodge (great
buffet selection - mostly western & Indian food, but also BBQ, etc., sometimes even
with Live Cooking). Way more than I expected “out in the wild”. We usually had lunch on the road, we stopped at a nice spot and had a picnic-style lunch. Zohar does NOT do lunchboxes, you get fully cooked meals (veggies, meat, rice, noodles, fruits, etc.), which are precooked at the lodges, they tend to give you way more than you can eat, and the taste is great!
Our Tour Guide
Your safari experience mostly depends on your tour guide. We had Solomon as our tour guide. He was super nice during our seven-day trip, driving hours over hours looking out for animals! He was very patient with our questions and picture-taking, and Solomon explained a lot about the animals we saw and their way of life, habits, etc. Solomon has eyes like an eagle, he spotted lions, cheetahs, and leopards far, far away (while driving!). Without Solomon and his experience, we would have probably only seen a handful of animals and for sure no Leopards or Rhinoceros. Yes, with Solomon we managed to see ALL BIG 5!
Overall 10 out of 10 experience!

Ensures a personalized, supportive safari with excellent service & memorable wildlife encounters.
We had an amazing experience with Zohar and would highly recommend their safari services. They thought of everything, making it a truly personalized adventure. The team was very supportive and helped us with everything we needed. The briefing at the beginning was very useful. :-)
One of the highlights of our safari was in the Serengeti, where we saw a cheetah that had just caught a wildebeest. She was with her two little babies, and it was an unforgettable moment.
Our guide, David, did an excellent job. He always tried to stay a bit remote from all the other cars, which made the safari feel even more personalized. Also he was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. The safari was an incredible experience, thanks to the great team at Zohar!

Professional and Trust Worthy
Zohar African Safaris planned our entire trip
Lilian was our contact point and she was extremely warm and helpful from Day 1.
She understood our requirements and suggested a 5 night iternary for us .
She was always available for any questions doubts we had . Once we arrived Lilian came over to meet us at Arusha with David who was to be our Driver and Guide through the trip
Excellent and a very clear briefing on the rules of the Game
We then finally started our trip from Arusha
We drove to Ngorongoro on Day 1. David was very professional and right through the trip we felt very comfortable with him. He had done a 3 year intense course n Wild Life management and his knowledge on the subject was top notch. We learnt a lot about each animal / bird we came across and he also gave us a history of Tanzania, and all the places we visited
We spent 2 nights at the crater . A must visit as the topography and views and the sighting of animals is great .
We then drove into Serengeti. Stayed at The singing grass camp. It was just wonderful. Great location/ right in the middle of the bush. Very comfortable and great service . We felt it was very personalised and we were looked after very well by the entire staff.
Overall an excellent trip .
David I must say was a big asset to us as he made our entire trip so interesting. He was very enthusiastic about showing us the best sightings possible , he would try and keep away from the crowd so we can get better sightings , and he knew the bush area , locations , watering holes and where we would find the best sightings / viewings at the back of his hand . Extremely disciplined as well to follow the rules and respect the wild life and its surroundings .
Great driver as well
We had a great trip and I would use Zohar and David again when we visit Serengeti in future for sure .
Highly recommended
Value for money and very reliable

Excellent Tanzania Local Safari Company
We were looking for a local and woman owned company and then we found Zohar African Safari. We traveled with family and friends in 8 people. It was an awesome experience. We had two cars and two guides. We could not had better guides than Tom and Solomon. They went far and beyond to please us . They were very knowledgeable, pleasant and respectful men . We saw all the 5 Bigs and much more animals than expected Having a happy hour in the safari at the sunset was an extra touch of kindness. Safari team was very informative and helped us to customize our trip . Highly recommended them Eliza

Professional, attentive, knowledgeable and responsiveness
We are very happy and satisfied that we picked Zohar African safaris as our tour guide for the 10 days in Africa.
We started to plan our trip in May, and reached out to multiple safaris groups, Zohar came on top in terms of responsiveness, accommodations, professionalism, and overall cost.
Over the 10 days we have moved from Amboseli to Maasai Mara to Serengenti, with 3 different drivers/guides. And special thanks to our guide, Jeffintoh and Solomon, for endless effort to search for animals in the safari, we consider we are very lucky to see the big five, lion cubs, elephant flights, serval cat and a lot more.
It is a such a lifetime experience trip and I would recommend anyone who loves animals to have a visit to African safari.
I would also highly recommend to go with Zohar team as I can feel the warm welcome, professionalism and passion for the safari.
