Great experience and good organized
5/5

We went for a two day safari to Mikumi NP. The experience was great!!! Everything was well organized we could sleep in the car on the long way to and from the park and we were provided in all our needs. Jimmy and the driver were very professional and respectful, so we are very satisfied and would recommend this organization!!!

Everything was perfect, organized as promised. Sam was a great guide and we couldnt have been happier. We saw The big 5 in only one day. Would recommend Swahili Paradise Tours to everyone.

5/5

We had a really good experience with Swahili Paradise Tours. They were very supportive and attentive in every moment. We climbed the Kilimanjaro and after that we went to Zanzibar. Our contact person was Jimmy and he was very kind and professional.

Memorable trip in lifetime hosted by swahili paradise tours
5/5

Hi ,All

I'm Spanish guy who love to travel and share travel experiences with others , in June of last year i was travelling through East Africa from Kenya to Tanzania to explore the nature of wildlife , as solo male traveller in tight budget . My journey started in Kenya for 5 days which was based for 2 nights at Maasai Mara , 2 nights at Lake Nakuru and 1 night at Amboseli N.P , it wasn't cheaper at the beginning when i planned to do it alone , but after i read different on-line reviews i discover it's worth if i could share the costs with others . So i opened a deal to share my trip with others who loves to meet and join with new people on trip . from those reviews i found most of solos were talking about swap groups which operating in East Africa , so that i contacted some of agencies who could mingle me with swap groups , off-course each of them came with different quotations , but finally i took a deal from swahili paradise tours , because it was affordable to my budget i had . i joined a swap group from Kenya to Tanzania , where in Tanzania i was doing 4 days itinerary safari which started from Tarangire - Serengeti - ngorongoro . To be honest in each park which i was visiting had unique viewing , and the guides in each country were knowledgeable , tents were in good condition ,even sleeping bags and mattresses .

All in all i have to say this was the first one remarkable trip in my lifetime which i ever had before , so i love to go back to Tanzania and visit many places as much as it will be possible . Apart from this short review i have to say thank you every one who spent his/her time to help me to have this trip , and i am happy to recommend others to use this agency and swap groups when they are in East Africa .

Lo sentimos también para mi Inglés que no es mucho. De lo contrario, le deseo feliz viaje en África.

Great trip!
4/5

I had a great time as a solo traveller; my driver, James was brilliant and so helpful.
The safari itself was amazing. They were able to secure fuel during a shortage which was really tricky.

Flexibility of service, great safari, value for money
4/5

We received a quote for the safari we selected and for the days we needed. The value us similar to the one we found online. The info provided is accurate, most of the information needed is in the document of the quote. Payment can be done by revolut or bank transfer. Sometimes the exchange of information is slow, either by email or whatsapp, but it arrives. There was a small issue when we paid by bank transfer. The company said it was missing 10 dollars, even tough it was transferred. This was the negative point we found, because I never saw a proof of the amount they received from my bank transfer. Swahili Paradise offered us to stay in their hostel in Arusha by 15 dollars a night with breakfast. It is an ok place, but in a slum, which means to arrive and leave from there only by car. No chance to buy anything around to eat and we hardly had electricity while we were there. Despite we booked the night before and after the safari, we decided to stay in the city center when we returned from the safari, as it is too much remote and we needed dinner. In that case we did not ask for the 15 dollars back. Still, in the day the safari started, we had transport arranged by Swahili Paradise to take us to the meeting point. The safari was amazing. As far as I understand they booked it to another company - Arunga. Our guide was spectacular - Ali or the Serengeti master as he says. He knew everything about Serengeti and Ngorongo. This is the experience I will take with me. But when we book the safari we don't know these details regarding who takes us.

Ok operator
4/5

hy
Our experience with Swahili Paradise Tour was next - transfer to the mainland and Zanzibar were ok
- Safarii 2 days share with other people : good experience , the driver was awesome , the food from ngorongoro under any criticism (boxed ), to the tarangirwas ok
- accommodation taken at the grandra view lodge through them the price and very good conditions
- Kilimanjaro tour came with a car robbery of not fit 4 people in it. After I contacted Jimmy, they came in a car. The two waterfalls that had to be seen was just one, the table arranged at a restaurant was good
- Stone town tour was ok but one we discussed initially and we had to pay extra.
-Generally an ok experience
