A life time experience!!!
A life time experience!!!
Soul of Tanzania made our dream come true.
From the moment we start organising our trip, we felt that we were in excellent hands!
Sandy draw a tailor made safari (we have been in Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Zanzibar). She picked up our budget and schedule, and draw it perfectly!
When we arrived Tanzania, we met Edward (Edy), our guide, who made all the effort to make our trip memorable! From the bureaucratic issues to the knowledge of nature and wild life, it was all professionally taken care by him.
We'll never forget the amazing quality of Olerai Lodge (Arusha), Acacia Lodges (Tarangire and Serengeti), Pakulala Safari camp (Ngorongoro), Escarpment Luxury Lodge (Lake Manyara), SeVi Boutique Hotel (Zanzibar) and neither our picnics together with hot and well made meals!
African music on the jeep and Edy's friendship made our safari much more pleasant.
We will never forget Edy and Tanzania!!

The best experience I could never forget.
Unforgettable memories! We won't forget every moment. I had a lot of worries about going on a trip under the COVID-19 situation, but with Sour of Tanzania team's strong support, I was able to make a decision and had beautiful experiences.
Thank you again to Journey Designer José C and all-around tour guide Azaria.
The tour price is very reasonable and all teams are very kind and professional!
And the HOT lunch during the tour was the best!! Facilities, kindness and professionalism are highly recommended.

Excellent safari, extraordinary guide
Excellent safari!
Superbly organized, professional and with an extraordinary and experienced guide (Hassani) who was very knowledgeable about aspects of Tanzanian culture and all types of wildlife. Hassani has more than 10 years of experience as a safari guide and that definitely showed.
It was a pleasure to be part of this experience that was (amazingly) even better than we expected.
Flexible timings, very good food along the way and excellent selection of lodges in all national parks.
Would definitely recommend Soul of Tanzania

Perfect - from start to finish!
Hiked Kilimanjaro (6 days) and went on a Safari (5 days)
Kilimanjaro Hike was amazing! Our guide (Richard) and porters were all excellent. They were each knowledgable, encouraging and friendly. They took time to get to know us and understand our needs. They helped us feel comfortable with the challenge and enabled us to enjoy our trek from start to finish!
Our Safari was equally outstanding! Again, we had terrific guides (Samir & Moses). They, too, were knowledgable, accommodating and made each day a super fun adventure for all of us! They were incredible at tracking down all of the Big 5! They even found the black rhinos!
The Value for the Money was unreal, as well. I would 100% recommend Soul of Tanzania to anyone who is looking for a once-in-a-lifetime Tanzanian experience!

Everything esse perfect, the guide, the safari, the hotels. We stayed speechless!
The company was incredible, explained us everything, helped a lot with our doubts. We really enjoyed our safari, we were lucky too with the animals we saw but the guide was insane in his search for animals :)

Once in a Lifetime Experience
I'd love to thank our tour guide Azaria for making the tour unforgettable. He was such a sweet and knowledgable person, we are super grateful for having him as our guide. Secondly, a big thanks goes to the agent who helped us organize the trip exactly according to our needs and was patient to answer all questions we had (and there were many :)) Thirdly, I cannot even describe the experience itself. It was breathtaking, amazing, accomodations were superb, so we thank Soul of Tanzania for making this such a unique experience. We are hoping to come back one day.

*Unforgettable*
We are a Portuguese couple who fell in love with Safari "Soul of Tanzania". We made a 3 days Safari and everything was above our expectations. Our guide, George, was respectful and kind to us all the time and was a great company during the Safari.
We had the opportunity to see all the animals, mostly the "Big 5".
We loved the animals' experience, the landscapes, the places where we spend the night, and the food we had tried.
I recommend you this agency to do your "Once in a lifetime Safari Experience" :)

Soul of Tanzania takes care of everything, you just need to enjoy your safari. Strongly recommended!
We could not recommend Soul of Tanzania more! We had the perfect safari thanks to Jose, our journey designer, and George, our guide. Jose, thank you very much for all your patience in answering all of our inquiries and for ensuring that all the bookings are in order - everything was flawless and stress-free. All we needed to do is enjoy the friendly people of Tanzania, the beautiful nature, and the animals.
If you travel, make sure you ask for George, you cannot ask for a better guide. He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to nature, animals, as well as the history and culture of Tanzania. We felt like we are traveling with a professor, we learned so much. George also went out of his way to ensure we have a good time, finding the best spots for lunch (even if it required driving to hard-to-reach areas) and making additional or longer stops so we can enjoy the nature and the animals on our own schedule while also keeping us on time. We saw all the animals we wanted to see (lions, leopard, elephants, zebras, rhinos, hyenas, monkeys and many more) While this is partially down to luck, George's knowledge of the parks certainly helped (we still do not know how he never got lost in the parks without using a map or a GPS!). Thank you, George, for this once-in-a-lifetime experience, you really made it special!
We strongly recommend that you book with Soul of Tanzania. Without having a journey designer like Jose, and a guide like George, you will spend a lot of time organizing your trip, which will not be easy as in order to book the best lodges, you really need to know the area. Going to a park without a local guide will guarantee that you will not see most animals, as you will not be able to go off the main roads without getting lost and you will not get the information from other guides. Make sure you budget for tips for both your guide and the lodges. People go out of their way to make you feel welcome and at home, you will want to show your appreciation (just consider it part of the cost of the trip).
Tip: If you end up booking a hotel/lodge of your own choice, make sure you cross-check its reputation with Soul of Tanzania, as there are hotels/lodges that do not treat guides well (low-quality accommodation and food) and therefore should be avoided. You can ask Soul of Tanzania if all the hotel choices you made are endorsed by the guides.
All in all, we would not change anything about our trip in retrospect. In fact, we had such a good time that we want to do another safari in 1-2 years again. We will certainly do it with Soul of Tanzania and ask for Jose and George.
Amazing
Our honeymoon with Soul of Tanzania was amazing. Sandy our journey designer was very patient, answered all our questions and made incredible suggestions. Our guides were incredible, Rodrick in Tanzania felt like a friend, they made our experience really good. The camps, hotels and lodges exceeded our expectations. Soul of Tanzania was definitely the best choice for such and special trip.
