Best 8 days of my life!
We are sitting in the airport, having just finished the best 8 days of our lives! Our guide, Jimmy, was INCREDIBLE. He was fun and friendly and so very smart. He ensured that we saw the Big Five. The drives were long, but it never felt like it. Time flew. We stayed at Karatu (best view and pool!), Kusini (words can’t express the magic here-the staff is fantastic and made us feel like royalty), Ikoma (would NOT recommend due to safety, lack of communication and cleanliness), and South Serengeti (zebras walking through camp!!). We booked with Fridebalda, who was so helpful and always had an answer to my many questions. We will definitely be booking another safari with this group and have already recommended them to several friends. Don’t question it, just book it!

Perfection!
We are Glenda and Iván, and we had the most incredible safari experience with Paradise & Wilderness in October. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect.
From the very beginning, Diana was amazing in helping us organize our itinerary. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and dedication made the entire planning process seamless and enjoyable.
The accommodations were fantastic, with exceptional staff who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The food was consistently delicious, offering a variety of options that exceeded our expectations.
A special mention goes to our guide, Salum, who truly made our safari unforgettable. He was highly experienced, friendly, professional, and deeply respectful of nature. Salum’s passion for wildlife and his ability to share fascinating insights added a unique touch to the entire adventure. He made the experience feel more like an exciting journey rather than just a tour. We will always cherish the memories of our time with him.
Without a doubt, Paradise & Wilderness is a highly recommended company for anyone considering a safari in Tanzania. They deliver an exceptional, personalized experience that goes beyond all expectations.

Very satisfied with their whole crew: guides, drivers, lodging staff!
I was a bit disappointed with customer service, though replies were prompt and helpful. But attention to detail was a bit lacking: My friend's food preferences included No Onions for box lunches, I (on the other hand) love onions, grilled or crunchy. Mike had to cancel (health), so I went alone, and all my box lunches were labelled No Onions. Oh well, the wildlife was awesome, and I had onions each dinner. I was also told that each jeep comes equipped with binoculars, but apparently the guide-drivers have to bring their own on the safari tours, doesn't seem right. My guide, whose name is Hamisi didn't have binoculars so I missed out (Note to safari goers: Your camera has to be equipped with telephoto lens!).
Hamisi was a wonderful safari guide and driver (rough and rocky roads often) and I was happy to get to know him.
By the way, all the lodging on this 12 day tour is owned and operated by the safari operator, so there's a consistency I appreciated (being halfway around the world). Tent and other lodging facilities were very well-maintained, with better than expected plumbing and bedding, decent wi-fi, and good variety of food at dinner.
Most apparent and appreciated: well-trained staff, from the managers to the servers and security staff. Friendly and able to deal with requests. I left my lap top charger plugged in at Karatu (the nicest lodging of the whole 2 weeks) and the drivers were able to tag-team the cords back to me 5 days later, what a relief to re-charge my devices!
By the way, the roads are rough, and challenging (I'm an older guy) but taking short flights to avoid long jeep drives is a mistake. I saw the real Tanzania on the roads, the beautiful, the difficult to watch, and the surprising, the Maasai goat herders, the children assembling for songs before school, baboons walking in formation along the road, so much to see, either sitting in the back or standing up with my cameras.
Three nights and days in the Serengeti, with a night-time jeep drive, great experiences each day. Thank you to Hamisi my guide, and to Paradise & Wilderness, the service and amenities were good, and the parade of wildlife was beyond my expectations.
