Best safari experience!!
5/5

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time in Tanzania. We had a private 5 days safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire national parks. Our drive/safari guide was most helpful and kind. His name is Balthazar and also goes by the nickname Bumpa. We got to see all the big 5 plus so much more! He got us so close to the animals that we could actually touch them (we didn't though). He is a former mechanic which is a huge plus because of all the bumby roads cars (even new ones) break down all the time! We saw plenty of broken down cars along the road. On the second day our car broke down (it was not old), the fan belt broke. He got out of the car and fixed it quickly! He is very knowledgeable about the animals in the parks. We really recommend this safari guide and company. We had 3 different chef's (for the 3 different places) and all were good. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. It was an unforgettable experience which we strongly recommend to everyone!

Good service, everything well organised
5/5

We have booked a safari with Jimmy some months before the safari. Swahili Paradise Tours did a great job on making the safari. We had a good 4x4 car and food was good. There were no problems on the safari. We have seen beautiful spots in the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. In the end, we skipped the Masaai tour (because it was too commercial). Unfortunately a refund could not be made. Our driver (Emmanuel) was the best driver we could imagine.

We do have some suggestions, because there is room for improvement. For example: the camping gear was old and dirty. It's better to fix better gear for more comfort. Also, we ended the safari in Lake Manyara, while it's better to start there (because it's not that impressive after you went to Serengeti).

After all it was a beautiful experience and we're happy that we've booked with Swahili Paradise Tours! Thank you Jimmy.

The safari was amazing. We saw everything we wanted to in three days. I don't think anyone else would have got as good service for the price

Well organised Safaris for a very good price
5/5

We booked a 10 day Safari in Tanzania southern parks and got a very good offer from Swahili Paradise Tours & Safaris. We never found a comparable price for the tour we wanted to do. The communication was with Jimmy via WhatsApp. That is a very easy and fast way for the bookings. The lodges were really nice and the drivers were also very good. One time we were disappointed with a walking safari that we took part of, as it was not what we expected. We called Jimmy and he made us a new booking for free immediately, and that one was great!
After Safari we went to Mafia island, where Jimmy booked a nice location for us. Apart from the raining weather every day, we enjoyed the island a lot as well. I would recommend Tanzania to everyone who loves Safari and booking with Swahili Paradise Tours & Safaris makes everything quite easy.

We had a wonderful time at Tremisana and Marc's Treehouse Lodge with the friendly and inviting staff
5/5

We booked a three night safari in South Africa in Kruger National Park using Swahili Paradise Tours and Safaris and were very happy with the experience. The staff at Tremisana and Marc's Treehouse is the highlight of the entire experience- They are friendly, inviting, and very accommodating. The facilities are clean and well maintained though they aren't the most modern. It's hardly a problem because you won't be spending too much time there anyway. You can get Wi-Fi in the common area at each location, but not really anywhere else. The staff is very helpful if you need to find the right adapter to charge your mobile device. The bush walks are a great addition to the safari drives. The guides are very knowledgeable and provide a lot more information about the wildlife and landscapes than you'd ever get from just driving around the area.
