Magical Tanzania with Wilson
Our first safari experience, with our incredible guide Wilson, will be unforgettable on so many levels:
He made us discover the nature, as well as the history and geography of Tanzania. His approach was stimulating and full of pedagogy.
The safari went extremely well, far beyond our expectations.
Every single day, we’ve been able to observe wild life, learn more about the animals way of life.
Our guide also had an incredible ability to spot all kinds of animals from great distance. Many times, we were the first ones spotting and observing them.
Even though guides have a radio to communicate between each other, Wilson didn’t even rely on it and was able to find animals thanks to his experience and acute sense of observation. That way, we were often by our own to enjoy the magical moment and immortalize them on camera.
The cherry on the cake happened on the last day, when he spotted a black rhino from one mile away!! We were thus among the lucky people that have been able to see this endangered animal during a safari.
We’ve learnt so much about wild life, Tanzania’s old and recent history/geography / geology…don’t go to Wikipedia, ask our guide Wilson! He’s an information gold mine! He is passionate about his job, and is eager to share his knowledge, as well as to always acquire more.
Last but not least, at the end of the trip, the experience was so wonderful we felt that Wilson was a part of our family.
We hope our roads will cross again, and we miss him already! It was a huge pleasure meeting him.
Thank you for all the memories, thank you for achieving this childhood dream. I hope we’ll see you again, Inchallah!

Great safari, thanks to our fantastic guide!
We did a 5-day safari in Tanzania with Soul of Tanzania, following 3 days in Kenya with Spirit of Kenya. Tanzania was the highlight, thanks mostly to our outstanding guide Erasto Ngowi. We can't recommend Erasto highly enough. First off, he made sure that we saw loads of wildlife. But beyond that, he gave us lots of interesting and valuable information about the animals, the ecology and the area we were seeing, combining both academic knowledge and many years of practical experience. His love of and commitment to his work comes through clearly. He helped ensure we had great photos, even taking many "National Geographic" close ups for us himself through binoculars. Throughout our trip, he communicated very well - explaining plans, and adapting them to our needs and requests, and checking in regularly to see how we were doing. During long days and hours of driving, he was always pleasant and positive. He goes above and beyond, providing silverware, wine and other accoutrements for lovely picnics, and he's a great driver. We also really liked and recommend the lodges we stayed in - the tranquil Acacia Seronera Luxury Camp inside Serengeti National Park, and the beautiful Serena Safari Lodge set on the edge of Ngorongoro Crater. We really loved everything about our time in Tanzania, and recommend the safari with Unlimited Experience. Ask for Erasto as your guide to ensure a fantastic trip!

Amazing Safari experience
We (couple 34 & 36) decided rather on short notice to go for a safari trip in October and we got in touch with a few operators over e-mail. What stood out to us was the full transparency on costing with Soul of Tanzania. The trip was really customizable and we were able to fine-tune the the trip perfectly within our budget (for example mixing lodges of different price buckets), adding an inland flight and customizing the initial itinerary (route!). We were in touch with Sandy who was always responding in a timely manner and gave us plenty of choices of accommodations to work with but was also fine with us requesting accommodations that were not initially presented to us.
(Just in contrast to this: we were a quite far planning stage with another operator but they kept insisting on a certain route and certain lodges without taking our preferences into account. Also the costing was very intransparent to us. Hence our final choice was Soul Of Tanzania.)
Our guide Fuhanael was extremely knowledgeable and patient. Halfway through the trip we got much more closer and at the end of the trip we were really sad to part ways with him. He has such a kind, calm and soothing nature around him. He spotted all the animals for us and we did manage to see the big 5 during our trip! Our inside joke became that next time we need to see his favorite animal.. a Caracal Cat. We were also happy with the amount of game driving time (a lot!) , amount of breaks etc.
We really enjoyed the hot lunches and do think that is a real plus of Soul of Tanzania. Because some of the cold packed lunches that the lodges give out are really not very enjoyable. Unfortunately, some lodges do not pack the warm lunches due to their own policies. (We got warm lunches 4 out of 6 times.)
We can't think of anything negative concerning the organization by SoT. Surely, there are things we may do differently on our next Safari but that comes down to personal preferences.
We can fully recommend SoT for a Safari in Tanzania.

GREATEST SAFARI OF ALL TIME!
My girlfriends and I did a 4 day safari with The Soul of Tanzania. Saying it was an amazing trip is an under statement. The country of Tanzania is VERY beautiful and the people are even better. Fidelis was our guide and he is an amazingly knowledgeable individual about the national parks as well as the country of Tanzania. We were a very loud group of girls and Fidelis (our guide) was very patient and kind at all times to us. We had such a great time and we were able to see many animals from giraffes, cheetahs, lions and their cubs, elephants, and so much more! I would definitely recommend booking with The Soul of Tanzania. We never felt unsafe throughout our trip. We stayed at wonderful hotels with the most hospital staff. Thank you to The Soul Tanzania for a trip of a lifetime!

Amazing safari!
We had an incredible experience with Soul of Tanzania! We did a 4-days Safari through Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with our guide, Gabriel. Everything was really well prepared and scheduled on point. The jeep was comfortable, the food was really good too!
Our main goal was, of course, to see the animals and Gabriel was the perfect guide for that. He has an amazing ability to spot the animals, is super knowledgeable and has a great sense of humour that was just the cherry on top of an already great trip. He even made us really interested in all the amazing birds that you can see in Tanzania!
Thank you once again Gabriel and Soul of Tanzania for a trip of a lifetime!

Custom Private tour- Serengeti, Tangire, Ngorongoro, Hadzabe
A wonderful experience both creating and participating in a custom package with Soul of Tanzania. I inquired online and Marta reached out immediately. Throughout the process, she was prompt with her replies and provided clear answers to my many questions. The pre-trip process was smooth, quick, and painless. Most importantly, she created a six day trip that was perfect and has left me with memories that will last a lifetime. The guide, Cleopa, was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable, and has an eagle eye which I'll never stop being amazed by. He worked with me on the day to day agenda, never rushed me, and made sure I got to see the big 5. He made it a personal mission to spot the rhino and I am truly grateful for his efforts. Bottom-line, you can't go wrong with these guys- courteous, professional, reliable, and they will deliver an awe inspiring journey. I highly recommend the Hadzabe visit by the way- few other tourists, an engaging group of people, and a unique experience. Thank you Marta and Cleopa!
