The best Safari company in the world! Amazing
From the first contact we had with Sandy to plan our trip, until the last day, everything went perfectly! The availability, speed and agility in closing a program that matches our needs is something that is visible from day one! Not to mention the possibility of exchanging emails in Portuguese which always helps. Our guide Erasto has a special eye for discovering animals, we had amazing animal experiences 2 meters from the jeep. We were fortunate to see the Big5 and to bring home experiences and fantastic stories!
I clearly recommend that you choose Soul of Tanzania for this spectacular trip.
PS: the hot meal for lunch accompanied by a glass of wine is the perfect option for the lunch breaks and recovery from tiredness!
Thanks!!

Professional and accurate. An unforgettable safari experience
We are just back from a safari in Tarangiri, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngoro Ngoro.
We started planning the trip before Covid, then shifted from last October to Oct 2021
and the flexibility from Soul of Tanzania has been extremely helpful to make it finally happen.
The proposed schedule and lodges have made this experience a memorable one.
The safari with the help of our guide George is fantastic. The parks are wonderful but the dedication of George, is continuous coordination with other guides to drive us in the right spot, and the competence to give us all information about animals and their habits has made the difference.

Amazing experience
We had such a great experience with Soul of Tanzania… Since we got in contact with them to arrange our safari, they did everything they could to fulfill our wishes and needs. They organized everything in detail and guaranteed an amazing experience.
We simply loved everything: from the safari itself, to the lodges we stayed, we came home amazed and planning to return as soon as possible. But we have to say it: what really made this trip so great was our wonderful guide, Wilson.
He is a real gentleman and one of the most wonderful persons we ever met. He has a deep knowledge about Tanzania, about the animals, about Africa, about life, and he shares it with passion.
He made our safari and our trip much much better and it was a great pleasure to learn and to spend all those days with him. More than a guide, he became a friend. When we return, we want him on board again with us, as well of Soul of Tanzania.

Fantastic Safari with Soul of Tanzania - Special Thanks to Sandy and Edward
This was our 4th Safari and the 1st with Soul of Tanzania - we highly recommend Soul of Tanzania to anyone looking to go on a Safari with good professionals.
We did a safari through 3 parks (Masai Mara (Kenya), Serengeti (Tanzania) and Ngorongoro (Tanzania)) and we loved the experience - we got to see the Big 5 in Tanzania :)
Sandy was our Journey Planner and made a great organization and planning of the Safari, advised us about the different options and activities and was always very available and friendly in answering all our questions.
Edward was our guide in Tanzania and he was one of the best guides we've ever had, very friendly, friendly and with a great knowledge of the animals.

Best trip
this Safari was the best trip ever. My wife and I have seen everything we wanted to see. Lion, rinoceros, leopard, cheetah, elephant, giraffe, ... Thank you soul of tanzania we had unlimited gasoline and unlimited water. we ate and drank whatever we wanted. Our Guide Onesim was the best. he has a lot of experience and we found all the animals. he is very kind and very respectful and he has a lot of culture. Every day he asked us what we wanted to eat and drink for the trip. And he took care of everything. the accommodations the company offered was magnificent. everything was perfect and I can tell you that I would go back to Africa with soul of tanzania eyes closed!

Unforgettable honeymoon - safari & beach holiday
Overall, great experience with Soul of Tanzania. Luis has been extremely helpful in tailoring the itinerary for the safari and has assisted us all along the process.
Our guide, Samir, was always on time and truly did his best to show us all the possible animals within the visited parks. We've had nice lunches (with juice and wine) during the 5 days of Safari and the car was always sparkling clean in the morning when our guide was picking us up :) We would've appreciated our guide to be a bit more involved in the conversation (the answers we got to our questions about birds/animals weren't really detailed and we would've enjoyed talking/getting to know our guide a bit more, especially during our common lunches) but of course this didn't ruin our experience.
Our safari was followed by a beach holiday in Zanzibar : Luis has arranged a pick-up at the airport for us. The hotel (Z hotel in Nungwi) was also great and the honeymoon package made our holiday unforgettable.
I can only recommend Soul of Tanzania and Tanzania in general. The safari is a magical experience everyone should have in a lifetime.

Just fabulous and unforgettable!!!
Just fabulous and unforgettable!!!
My husband our two boys and I spent an amazing five days in the middle of nowhere.
Our guide Georges was incredible. He knew everything regarding wildlife and flora.
He was very nice and discreet. He was with us in Lake Manyara , Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti Park. He spoke fluent in French.
Soul of Tanzania answered all questions we had and helped us with everything: visas, country information, Covid form and above all accommodation, entries to parks, the guide and our special requests.
Our dream came true!

Experience of a Lifetime, thanks to Soul of Tanzania!
My wife and I decided to go to Tanzania after almost 2 years of no travel due to COVID. I had never been on a safari (or even to Africa) before, but my wife had gone on 3 shorter safaris so I was excited for us to do this together. I did a lot of research and found Soul of Tanzania to be a top contender. I am SO glad I went with them and while the 5 day, 4 night tour seemed like it might be a lot- each day brought us something new, exciting, and breathtaking.
1) Our Guide- Our guide, Mr. Wilson, was hands down one of the best tour operators I've ever had the pleasure of working with and was definitively a key reason our experience was as amazing as it was. He was knowledgable to no end (wildlife yes of course, but also politics, history, economy, etc). His ability to spot wildlife from near and far then put is in a position to best view it time after time was truly one of the factors that made our trip spectacular. He was beyond patient, we were never an inconvenience to him and he knew how to cater to our needs, wishes, and preferences. Lastly, his laugh, positive spirit, endless energy, and genuinely warm heart could be felt by all we encountered. His Landcruiser was clean, well stocked, and comfortable.
2) The food- Your food at the hotel will of course be reflective of the options you pick, but the lunch served with SoT was beyond anything I would have expected for a "picnic lunch". We ate at similar sights as other tour groups and you could see everyone jealous of our 4 course hot meal, served with wine and coffee, on real plates.
3) Overall service- SoT was extremely communicative, answered my numerous questions prior to booking, and continued communications up til the time of pick up.
You may see (mostly) the same animals and landscape regardless of the tour operator you go with, but I genuinely think our experience was better than others because we booked with Soul of Tanzania. The 5 day, 4 night tour is just enough to spend time in the Serengeti while also seeing another park (we saw Lake Manyara because of the time of year) and the Ngorongoro Crater. We saw 40-50 different species of animals and birds EACH DAY (total of nearly 100 unique species) and literally saw thousands of animal.
It's been 3 months and I still can't stop raving about this to friends and family. Do yourself a favor and book a safari with Soul of Tanzania!!
