İncredible
Where do I start!!Hekima Safaris team was extremely patient and resourceful in helpinge during my stay in Tanzania! The only thing i had to do was book my international flight from Turkey that was it! Once i stepped foot in Tanzania everything was handled and i never had to worry about a thing. Every staff member had the some experienced the same high standard of customer service across the board.

Fanatastic service and safari company
From start to the end you can feel that the guys at Hekima safari wants to give you the best safari experience possibly: excellent knowledge, fantastic persons and outstanding service. At the day the canoeing was closed at the park but they found another lake just as beautiful, no extra charge. We Couldn’t imagine my trip to Arusha nationalpark being any better.

Going the extra mile. For you!
Going to safari and experiencing a country like Tanzania is no small trip. If you want a company to show you all the must-see in Tanzania and give you a safe and sound service from arrival to departure, choose Hekima.
They always come through for you be whether you wish to see the big five, tribes visit, experiencing Arusha town etc. these are your guys!

Best budget safari that exceeds expectations!
Six of us went on a Safari with Hekima in the month of June for 5 days. It was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had. We had an amazing guide who could spot animals from afar. We were so lucky that we saw all the Big 5, Small 5 and the ugly 5. We had a great cook with us who gave us delicious food to eat and also ensured that everyone’s diet was taken care of. The entire safari was very well handled and our guide went out of his way to take us to see the great migration. It was an absolute pleasure and a wonderful experience. Hekima took care of us and ensured that we had enough water to drink, food to eat and beds to sleep on throughout the journey. We not only had a great experience but made lifelong friendships as well.

Great Experience with an Amazing Crew!
The staff at Hekima - right from Elieza, Jackson, Juma, Michael and others, always went the extra mile to ensure nothing short of an incredible safari experience. We were a group of 6 guys and all our needs (including varying dietary requirements) were taken care of. I would also suggest a stay at Hekima House before and after the safari.
Special credit to Juma, who was our driver as well as guide for the 5 days. He had extremely sharp eyes that could spot a honey badger a mile out in the grassland. He took extra efforts to allow us to see the Great Migration that had drifted off farther than the normal safari routes. Add to this his impressive knowledge of the various wild animals and his excellent sense of humor, we really couldn't have asked for a better guide!
Hekima will ensure that extra "personal touch" to your experience. You will end up making friends for life. Highly recommended!

These guys know what the customer needs very well
Safari is a once in a lifetime opportunity for many and I am no exception. Hekima understood that and brought back the National Geographic kid back to life with an extravagant safari experience. Our tour guide Jumma is a very experienced guide with hawk eyes, who made sure we spot the big five and also rare to spot honeybadger and the Karakal. I will suggest you all to give Hekima a try, as these guys are doing a wonderful job as a start up and bring Tanzanian tourism on the global map.

Wonderful Safari , Trustworthy Operator, Friendly Staff
With Hekima, we did a 4 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) and 2 day trips to Kikuletwa Hotsprings and Kilimanjaro.
Safari experience was really good. Our driver/guide Moses was really experienced and friendly. He knows where to drive and when to start the game drives. In Serengeti, we started the game drive at 6:00 and saw a kind of conflict between a lion and hyaena clan just at the beginning. Many safari cars came half an hour later and missed the whole show.
The food in safari was above my expectations. If protein is important in your diet, you must bring it for yourself. Meat amount was little as expected.
The sleeping bags and tents are taken from a place in Mto wa Mbu. I guess most operators do the same since I saw similar tents in campsites. Tents were a bit smelly at first night. Sleeping bags have different models and conditions. Some of them are not suitable for the night at Ngorongoro especially for the girls (5-10 'C). But wearing layers during the sleep can suffice.
The only problem in our experience with Hekima was in Kilimanjaro Day hike. We started the day nearly 2 hours later than suggested time and we needed to rush a lot for completing the hike before 6pm (after 6 hiking is prohibited). Because of this we could not see Maundi Crater and did not enjoy the hike since we did not give breaks and need to complete the whole hike in 4 hours (nearly double speed). They must be more careful on this kind of arrangements and must consider the traffic and park rules.

Posted on Sep 3, 2018Many thanks for your kind review! We are really happy that you enjoyed the time spent with us during the safari! It's very important to us!
Thank you for your feedback about a day Hike at Mt Kilimanjaro !
“We conducted the promotion in our social Media about to get free Activities with us and they won free day Hike at Mt Kilimanjaro .And after Kikuletwa they overnight at Arusha due to the time and periodicity “A day Hike”from Arusha to Kilimanjaro for starting point of Marangu root we did the best to meet they expectation “
for this reason we apologize if we didn’t meet your expectations. Environment conditions of day Hike could make it not that easy, but we will take this observation to still improve our service!
Hope to meet you again soon around this small village called “World “
Sincerely
Hekima Safaris
