Amazing safari with top organizational and driver
5/5

The experience with Shemeji Safari was top notch. We travelled for five days through Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Beside the beauty of the natural parks/protected areas, I must say that the whole organization before the trip and the experience we had during the trip were outstanding. Emma, with her precise and fast answers to many inquiries before the trip and Beni, our driver, who during the game drives, was always a step ahead of all the other drivers in relentlessly finding the big 5 (we saw rhinos more than once in different parks...that is extremely seldom) and passionately explaining animals habits. We strongly recommend Shemeji for the quality they delivered and above all for the attention/passion we felt before, during and after the safari. Congratulations for the great and tough work you carry on.
P.s ask to get Beni as a driver. This experienced guy spots animals from unbelievable distances and has a non common passion/understanding for what he does

5/5

The communication was great, I always got very quick replies to my emails.. I never heard about Shemeji before but I found it during my research online and trusted all the positive reviews. We are very happy customer and would definitely recommend them also for the great deal pricewise vs the great quality of the service and all the accommodation.

Fantastic 5-day-safari in Tanzania
5/5

This tour is perfect to enjoy the amazing wildlife of Tanzania's famous north.
Tarangire and Lake Manyara are really cool and we were lucky enough to spot a lot of big cats - like lions and cheetahs.
Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater are truly spectacular and a dream for every wildlife lover. The landscape is outstanding. The wide plains of the Serengeti are really majestic and to spot wildlife in the crater of a volcano must be unique on this planet.
The last day of our trip we completed the Big 5 since we spotted a rhino in the Ngorongoro crater.
All lodges were great, but glamping in the Serengeti was a once-in-a-lifetime-experience. The food was really nice - breakfast and dinner in the lodges and a packed lunch at the picknick sites in the national parks.
Our guide Adam was very nice and attentive. He answered to any question, we asked him and taught us a lot about the animals, plants and landscape of Tanzania.
This tour is really suitable for everyone, who loves game driving.
The transfers from one park to the next are really manageable and the roads are mainly in good condition.
We booked this tour online via www.shemejisafari.com and this was a good experience. They are really professional and every details was perfectly organized.

We recommend them without restrictions.

Shemeji Safaris organised an amazing trip and wouldn’t have changed a thing
5/5

Emma did a great job communicating the different options and giving us all of the information beforehand.
Adam (our tour guide) did a great job explaining all of the wildlife and when/where we needed to be. He managed to find us all of the big five. Our first safari camping experience at Lake Manyara was lovely with great facilities even an infinity pool.
Issac our chef made great food even gave us snacks before dinner and did a great job catering for my friends vegan diets.
I would definitely travel with Schemji again had a fantastic time!

Fantastic 7-day safari of the northern parks in Tanzania
5/5

I can't fault any aspect of Shemeji Safari; from initial enquiry to the tour itself, everything was easy and they made sure we had a great time. With no prior knowledge of the area or what to see, we were guided at every step with the team's expert knowledge. Our driver and chef during the week were fantastic; nothing was too much trouble for them. Highly recommended!

Once in a lifetime experience with Shemeji!
5/5

We really enjoyed our safari trip with Shemeji. Booking procedure was easy and with a strong customer focus. So we also added a airport pickup which was even cheaper than our hostels offer. The safari itself was awesome! Guide and cook were really nice guys and made it a very nice experience. Everything was organized very well but still had a very personell touch. Seen so many animals that the fourth day nearly got boring :-) We can absolutly recommend Shemeji!

When I go back to Tanzania again, it will be only Emma from Shemeji and no one else I would trust!
5/5

When I first started searching for a dependable tour company in Tanzania for our upcoming trip in November 2018, I found many of these companies are based overseas and the quotes were ridiculously high. Then I found Emma from Shemeji Safari who offered us a very reasonable pricing. I worked with Emma for over 6 months and I found her very reasonable. She is practical but flexible. And above all, she holds high integrity and honesty. I never looked back. In Tanzania, she fixed us up with her dependable driver Edie for the safari tours. During an emergency situation, the help I have received in Tanzania from Emma and Eddie, I will never forget in life. Needless to say, for any of my future trips to Tanzania, it would be Emma and Edie from Shemeji Tours and no one else.

Amazing trip of a lifetime
5/5

In October 2018 we went on a trip of our lifetime. We had decided on an 8 day Safari with Shemeji. It turned out even better than we could have ever dreamed. Our guide and driver Adam picked us up in Arusha and off we went on an unforgettable journey. Lake Manyara, Tarangire Nat'Pk, Ngorongoro Crater, Empakaai Crater, Central Serengeti and Lake Natron. Every bit unforgettable, we saw the Big 5, and Leopards in the trees and Cheetahs on the prowl only a few meters from our 4x4 and lots more and all due to Adam's excellent scouting, patience and never tiring enthusiasm. His knowledge and passion made every second special. We also like to mention that in the evenings when we retired to our cool drinks Adam went off to clean and maintain the car for the next day's adventure. We could not have asked for a better guide, driver and companion.
Shemeji is a great tour operator and we only have positive things to say. They are always quick in response and happy to help. A left behind jumper turns up magically on the last day. And the fact that part of their profit goes toward supporting Masai girls' education is a wonderful gesture. Thank you Adam, thank you Anna and thanks to you all at Shemeji
