A True Safari Experience
We took a private family tour carefully planned by our journey designer Luis G. where he's taken into account all our requests and exceptions. He's been pivotal in designing the right route, what to see, what to expect for a family of safari seekers at the "elementary" level. This is quite critical since what you see is assessed by what you expected in the first place. Moreover, if you are not part of a standard tour, be it a private or a group tour, chances are you'd be forgotten and ignored. However that was not the case for us...thanks to Luis G.
I strongly recommend for anyone who wishes a "boutique" safari experience to have a word with Luis prior to doing anything upfront.
He is the "one"...

unique and amazing experience
Our trip was unique and incredible our trip and Soul of Tanzania played a major part in this. Organization was perfect from the beginning (thanks to the super-girl Mei-Ling! ) to the end of safari and even to the beach trip at Zanzibar.
We were a group of 4 women who dreamed to make a safari together: our choice of Soul of Tanzania could not be better! I worked hard to find them and my choice couldn't be better!!!
We had a super-man guide Hassan who was so nice, and also a super- guide and a super-driver who took care of all of us . The game drives were all amazing looking for all animals with patience, excitation, and emotions.
the lodges or camp were different and splendid either in Manyara Lake , Serengeti or Ngorongoro. How describe the massai visit? many emotions!
and Ngorongoro: it was the Eden garden!! The food was so good and fresh and the lunch was also a top moment! I travel a lot and I was really impressed by the organization and the quality of the whole trip... thank you so much...

Unique experience!
From the first moment I had approached Soul of Tanzania, I got the feeling I was dealing with professional people here, who would have made my trip unforgettable.
I was contacted by a journey designer (Luis in my case, who I can't thank enough!) who illustrated me the different options for a safari in Tanzania. It didn't matter how big or small my questions were, he has always replied within 24h to my emails, which is not given everywhere. We first paid 50% of the total, and then the rest 50% a month before our trip. The payment is a money transfer, which went smooth like butter.
We've landed in Kilimanjaro airport, and a representative of the company was waiting for us there to take us to our accommodation.
The next 5 days were priceless; our driver and tour guide was very kind, perfect english and very helpful in explaining the culture of Tanzania, the landscape, the country etc.
He was very knowledgable and spotted animals way before we did :)
The lunch is provided by the company, and I've noticed the lunch from Soul of Tanzania is way better than most of the other tour operators. To begin with, it's a hot lunch. We've always had a different main every time, rice, a side, plus fruit and coffee (and wine or water of course). Most of the tour operators only give you a lunch box, which is a sandwich.
The accommodations picked by Soul of Tanzania were really good. We went for the basic ones, and they all had AC in the room, WiFi, etc. Not much more you can ask for, plus you can check them out before you book, so you know which place you are getting.
If you are planning on going to a Safari in Tanzania, look no further and go with them, I highly recommend them!

An amazing 7 days safari in Tanzania made true by Soul of Tanzania
Planning the safari was very easy with our journey designer Luis from SoT since his activity and good suggestions. All pretasks was done with Luis’s help and there were no problems at all with them.
The safari itself was amazing, thanks to our guide Deo who make it happen as planned - just perfect!
Starting from Ngorongoro, then central Serengeti, Ndutu and finally Tarangire. A huge variation of animals including the big 5 in Ngorongoro and Serengeti, lions and cheetas in Ndutu and elephants and Oryx antilopes in Tarangire. Added with amazing views, sunrising ... just excellent memories !

Amazing experience! - "Mom! When will we go again?"
Me and my two kids (10 and 6 years old) traveled with Soul of Tanzania and the experience was unique for the 3 of us. The kids still ask about the driver, Ali, and it was one month ago.
The trip was planned only with 2 month in advance and the prompt reply of my emails was the key for everything being possible.
Everything was very organized, since day one, picking at airport, till returning back to it.
Ali, the driver was very experienced and full of patience to handle with high drive kids and their stubborn "things".. He really knew how to adequate the logistic of 5 days full time safari with young kids!
About the Safari itself, it was an amazing experience, with Ali's knowledge, it seems we were inside national geographic episode. We had very lucky and saw everything what was expected.
We could think 5 days of Safari it's hard specially with kids of this age, but even with the youngster, 5 days passed without noticing For that, besides the guide/driver, it has contributed all the wonderful organization of Soul of Tanzania, and their unique, hot, fresh, daily meals, which are of the most importance, when we have kids - and even my kids noticed the difference between their meals and the other groups prepackaged lunches.
At the end I may say: 5 STARS for you, ALI!
and share my son's last day comment: "it seems we began only yesterday and it was already finishing? I want to return on the dry season!"

Incredible experience
We just came back from a dream vacation in Tanzania. Our 5 day safari followed by 3 nights in Zanzibar was fully organized by Soul of Tanzania. It has been an incredible experience made only possible by the unique professionalism and competence of this agency. From the moment I first wrote Soul of Tanzania until the day we came back home, I was in contact with Luis who supported us at all times. During the safari, our guide Kennedy was amazing, knowledgeable, and super fun. Overall the organization was spotless and everything went smoothly. The accommodation both during the safari as well as in Zanzibar was way above what we expected. I really can’t recommend soul of Tanzania highly enough.

A Lion King experience
For our honeymoon we really enjoyed the safari, in the different national parks. Our guide explained us a lot about animals and local tribes lives.
Very great experience

6 day Safari- a memorable trip
Our experience with Soul of Tanzania was seamless from the very first email interaction. Having been recommended Soul of Tanzania from friends, we emailed to enquire about a safari for my husband, our 16 year old son and myself for mid-January 2020. All our questions were promptly answered and we felt very confident to book the trip with the company.
From arrival at Kilimanjaro airport we were well looked after. All our accomodation during the safari was very comfortable and safe.
The highlight was undoubtedly seeing the magnificent animals in their natural habitats. Our driver, Emanuel, was exceptional and enhanced our trip with his knowledge, friendly and professional manner. Photography advice he gave helped us get fantastic photos we will always treasure. Emanuel also created fabulous lunch experiences as we feasted on delicious hot lunches and a glass or two of wine whilst soaking in the ambience of the Tanzanian bushland. At all times we felt completely safe and looked after whilst in Emanuel's care.
We took the additional option to visit a Masai village. The experience was unique and we were glad we did! It was a fabulous memory as well as an opportunity to gain a firsthand insight into a different and interesting way of life.
Two of our accomodation sites were campsites. We slept in luxurious tents and fell asleep to the sound of lions and animals whilst feeling completely at ease and safe- this was a magical experience, especially as the warm, friendly and hospitable staff at each site made us feel so welcomed.
I highly recommend Soul of Tanzania to organise a truly special way to interact with these magnificent African animals and enjoy the wonders of Tanzania
