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.

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!

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.

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.

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

A kind and organized operator who listens to your needs to make the perfect safari for you.
My husband and I booked a 9-day safari for our honeymoon. Lilian, the owner, worked very closely with us to design the ideal safari. We were able to add some walking safaris and stay in lodges deep in the bush - which we were really excited about. Lilian is a timely and excellent communicator. We felt very well taken care of before and during the trip (and even after as she checks in to see how we are adjusting back home :)).
Our guide was incredible. It was more like having a bonus friend on safari that happens to know everything about the animals and land.
This was a really good deal for everything we got.
Bonus points for working with a locally-owned, woman-owned company.

Professional,
Where to start?
When we booked our 5-day safari with Zohar, we had no idea we were in for the experience of a lifetime.
From the very first moment of our stay we were swept away by the magic of this exceptional trip in the true sense of the term. The organization was outstanding and the professionalism was top, making the experience unforgettable.
I can't talk about this trip without mentioning our guide SOLOMON. We started the trip as clients, and we quickly became best friends.
Thanks to his perfect knowledge of the parks and his audacity in the face of nature, we were able to witness scenes that will certainly mark us for life.
With the surprises and the original little attentions, Lilian engraved this trip in our memory forever.
I will never forget the bottle of champagne while admiring the sunset over the endless plains of the Serengeti and the Seronara Valley, or the picnic improvised by Solomon on a wild cliff of the savannah while contemplating the group of baboon curious by our presence.
The only negative point of this trip is the heartache we have to feel when we leave these spectacular landscapes and these ultra endearing people.
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU, and see you soon.

Perfect !
Best experience of my life! I can't describe my safari with Zohar any other way.
First of all, and in order to organize the trip, Lilian was very welcoming and she was available at any time via Whatsapp to answer all our questions.
Her sense of welcome was confirmed as soon as we arrived in Arusha, where she came to meet us with lots of little personalized attentions that made us very happy.
Our safari lasted 5 days with a departure from Arusha, visit of the Tarangire park, then the Serengeti park and to finish with the Ngorongoro crater.
Throughout the 5 days, we were on cloud nine admiring the beauty of the animals and the grandeur of the parks.
I can't talk about our safari without mentioning our guide Solomon. A great expert of the parks, he knows a lot of things about the way of life of the animals and he knew how to share with us a lot of information that added magic to the safari. Thanks to him, we were also able to witness some unique scenes (a cheetah that chased a gazelle for example). The knowledge of the guide can change the whole safari experience!
We were also treated to high quality accommodation throughout the 5 days, with a very good welcome from the staff, very comfortable rooms and excellent meals. A special mention for all the pic nic with the beautiful views we had :)
Thank you Zohar for your professionalism, the care you give to your customers (who end up being friends!). I recommend Zohar 1000%.
For sure we will come back to do a safari with you ;)
See you soon,
Soumaya

Amboseli - Tarangire - Serengeti - Ngorongoro Dream Safari
Zohar was recommended to us by a friend. Already the booking and organization process was really smooth as Lilian is super responsive, motivated, and pragmatic. We had quite some special requests that were all accommodated without problems. Solomon was the guide for the better part of our journey and he did a great job. Instead of just following the other cars and going wherever everyone else was, he was extremely motivated and had some very impressive skills in spotting animals for us (really, there was just a tiny grey dot somewhere on the horizon that turned out to be a rhino - like how does he even do that?). He went to great lengths to make sure we had the best possible experience, as did Lilian and the rest of the Zohar team. Accommodations were top notch and everything worked out without any problems. Full recommendation from both of us.
