Very good Safari, fantastic guide
We did a 3 day/2 night Safari to Ngorongo Crater and Serengeti desert. It was a perfect tour, great guide, great food. We didn't stop at any shop or village like other tours. Nice other travellers and perfect contact via e-mail.

summary:
-> exceeded all our expectations!
- Well-prepared Safari tour
- good cars and equipment
- excellent guide and chef, who really want to make the best of your trip
- good knowleadge of animals and landscape
We had a really wonderful safari tour with Shemeji. We did a 8-day tour from the end of September to October and visited the following National Parks: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Arusha NP. On a additional day we went to the beautiful hot springs near Arusha and did a half day hiking tour to some nice waterfalls in the forest (also with shemeji).
The Safari in itself was well-prepared and good-equipped. We were really lucky with our perfect guide Freddy. He has a good sense to find hidden animals and was very good company for us. It was a perfect mix of staying in a "crowded area" to see some highlights very close and driving through remote area and spot cheetah, lion and elefant just on our one. These quiet moments were the best time on safari. Once we could spot a group of 15 elephants (with small children) for over 45 minutes on our one and Freddy did no pressure. In total we have seen so many animals and much closer than expected. Big herds of antelopes, buffalo, zebra, flamingos and also elefant, leopard, giraffe, hippo and many many lions........
We had a good mix of accommodation (tent, tended camp, lodge, hotel) and enjoyed most the camping in Serengeti and on the rim of Ngorongoro crater. Our chef Patrick was great and he cooked always a 3-course dinner for us. The dinner together with our guide Freddy was nice and we had good talks. We had also lovely snacks for lunch every day. We have seen big safari groups and they had just a prefabricated lunch box like on a airplane.
Organizing the tour with the company was easy going. Emma was very helpful and tried to include all our wishes. She is from Europe, but lives in Tanzania, therefore she knows the european demands and standards very well.

Wonderful Time
Shemeji review
We had a wonderful safari with Shemeji. We took the 8 day option including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, hotsprings and visit to the Maasai village. Communication with the company was very prompt and they were keen to arrange the trip to suit our needs.
The safari itself was very well planned and ran like clockwork. Elemens our guide was fantastic, he really knew the habits of the animals and so we weren’t following the crowds but were often in a secluded corner of the park hanging out with the cheetah. We were lucky enough to see the big 5 and pretty much all other animals.
Our chef was also great and the food was lovely. Our safari included a mix of hotel, permanent camps and wilderness camping. This was a really good way to stay close/ in the parks and so make the most of our time. The added days at the end, including a hot spring and maasai visit were a really nice way to finish the safari. The village we visited was more ‘off the tourist trail’ than those at the Serengeti so the people there seemed very keen to meet us.
All in all, the trip was excellent value, very well run and organised to suit us. We would like to thank everyone at Shemeji for a great trip, we are looking forward to coming back!

4-day safari: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro
Our 4-day safari was the absolute highlight of our trip to Tanzania. The safari was well organised. We had an excellent guide and chef. The guide took us to the best spots so we had a good view. He also explained a lot about the animals and their habits. During the night we stayed at different campsites where you could actually hear the animals in the distance. It was a great experience! The chef prepared delicious food and the service was great. Everything was arranged very quickly and the safari absolutely lived up to our expectations! We certainly recommend Shemeji Safari & Tours!
Thank you!

It was really nice and it was definetly one of the best experience here! The trip is very organized!
The communication was good. The food was also good and everything was very clear for example that you were picked up and every night one of the guides came to the group and tells something about the next day and what you can expect about it.

Great Safari, well organized, easy to book and great recommendations for the tour
Shemeji Safari & Tours is a great Operator and was a big help of us. We booked a 5 day Safari without beeing to Africa before. They helped us with the planning, answered all questions and gave recommendations what is worth to do and what not. The pick-up and Safari worked very well and we had a great time. The parks were very diverse which made the Safari very exciting. Furthermore, we had different types of accommodation included which were great. Moreover, they gave us great recommendations for our ongoing travel to Zanzibar.
