Very well organized Safari
It was an incredible 3 days, full of unforgettable experiences. We loved our 2 hotels (melia serengeti and lions paw), the jeep was spacious for the 3 of us, with enough water, and the friendly driver, knowledgeable about the terrain, was keen to show us the animals and was quick to drive.

Best Trip ever with the best Guide Cleopa
Dear Soul of Tanzania team,
first of all we would like to thank you for the entire planning and smooth execution. Everything went smoothly, communication, requests and payment processing. Now to our safari tour and our tour guide Cleopa. Cleopa was by far the best guide we could imagine, he did everything to fulfill our wishes and expectations. He wasn't just a guide, he became a friend. His warm and gracious manner made our safari truly unique. He explained everything to us down to the smallest detail and put a lot of effort into it. The trips to the respective places were very amusing and we had a lot of fun. Thanks to him and his efforts we have all seen the Big 5 of Africa, we are infinitely grateful and fly back with a wonderful memory and experience. Tanzania and the safari has conquered our hearts, we thank you, Cleopa and of course Mama Africa for this unforgettable experience. If we come back or our friends come, we will definitely recommend you and Cleopa. A 10/10 from us!
With eternal gratitude and love,
Pél and Mohammad from Bonn, Germany

An amazing experience!
We went to Rwanda on a customized, private trip to go gorilla trekking and chimpanzee trekking. The trip itself was amazing - it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see these animals up close and in their natural habitat and something we'll never forget.
Everything went absolutely perfectly from the moment we landed to the moment we were dropped off at the airport on the way back. Eric A was our tour guide and he did a fantastic job of answering our questions and making sure everything was set logistically - his client service was really, really great and he always went the extra mile for us!
Luis was our trip organizer and he did a great job of helping us plan the itinerary through changing covid protocols, and he was always quick to respond and provide solutions. The hotels were really nice too. Overall, the trip exceeded all expectations, and especially for the price, would recommend it to anyone looking to have an amazing adventure in a beautiful country

Very well organized - perfect trip
Everything was very professionally handled and the driver was extremely nice. Some minor hickups happened (2 times the driver came late because they told him the wrong time) and one time we drove to the wrong camp otherwise a great experience. So a fair rating woud be 4,5 but because of the driver I made it a 5.
The migration in Serengeti is really special even when you habe been in almost all major parks of Africa before.

Fabulous experience with them.
Our trip was one of the best experiences we have had over the decades of us traveling across the globe. Because of Covid the Trip had to be postponed numerous times and the communication from Lidia with Soul of Tanzania was superb. She worked with us in choosing new facilities as the times of the year changed. The process could not have been better.
Our Guide, Wilson K., with his 30+ years of experience made the safari more than meet any expectations we may have had. His knowledge was outstanding, giving us a great education about the animals and the region of the continent.
We travel a fair amount, this was an A+ experience.

An unforgettable safari with Soul of Tanzania
The organisation of our 6-days Safari with Soul of Tanzania was flawless. From the moment we were picked up at Kilimanjaro Int'l Airport and were taken to our hotel in Arusha, the excellent accommodations in (the vicinity of) Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorogoro National Parks, the delicious lunches with cooked food and glasses of wine at the picknick areas, till the drop off at the airport in Kilimanjaro again, everything went well in time and according to the itinerary.
Our utmost gratitude goes to our driver/guide Samir. He has good save driving skills, a perfect knowledge of the nations culture and wildlife in general, and a perfect overview of the area to get you to the best spot to see an abundance of animals. He managed to see a lioness vs gazelle situation first and thus gave us the unique front row view of a chase from the beginning till the end right in front of our jeep. Absolutely amazing. We recommend Samir as a driver/guide.

Amazing experience thanks to Edward
Edward was the perfect guide, and we had an amazing experience. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about nature and Tanzanian culture - we learned a ton from him. He was able to give us many unique wildlife sightings and could answer all our questions. Additionally, he was a terrific driver.
He always provided world-class service, being timely, kind, and helpful. He always checked in with us to give us the best time possible. Importantly, he was a great person and became our friend. Because of this experience, I will surely be returning back soon, and will recommend Edward and this company to many friends. 5 stars!

Soul of Tanzania is an excellent tour operator.
My experience with Soul of Tanzania was wonderful! I went to Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Tarangire, and had a day trip to Kilimanjaro. Sandy was so helpful planning my holiday and answering all of my questions. My safari was amazing! I saw so many amazing things, more than I could have expected, I was so fortunate. My guide Gabriel was the best guide. He has been a guide for 16 years and you can tell. He knew about all of the animals, big and small from the lions to the birds. He also know about other things from the trees to the termite mounds and he taught me a lot. He got me in the best spots for photos and stopped every time I wanted to take a picture which was a lot! Also, he was a lot of fun to be with. I am planning another trip to Tanzania and I will be using Soul of Tanzania and I will be having Gabriel as my guide! Thank you so much!!

An unforgettable trip
Going on a safari had always been one of our dreams and we couldn't be happier that we chose Sould of Tanzania to organize this trip. The word that best sums it up is: professionals. Both for their service from the moment you land until you leave, as well as for all the accommodation places recommended by them.
On the trip we have visited the parks of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro for 5 days, and we have loved all of them, since each one has something that makes it different, and makes you not get tired of seeing everything that surrounds you. We have been able to see the big 5, lions hunt a buffalo, it has been incredible.
Our guides have been Idrisa (guide work) and Benny (driving work). Idrisa speaks Spanish perfectly, transmits a great enthusiasm for her work and for the animals. He is attentive to every detail to make your trip unique. Benny is a person who demonstrates extensive experience in his work, he knows each of the parks, the animals perfectly and he makes sure that you feel as safe as possible. It has been a luxury to be able to have two guides, since all the logistics have been efficient to the maximum.
Highlight the Soul of Tanzania extra with the "hot lunch" as a differentiating element with respect to most other companies (or at least the 80-90% that we have seen in all the parks). Being able to eat hot, pasta or rice, meat, vegetables, instead of a sandwich, honestly makes a difference. The food is prepared every morning in the lodgings where you sleep and they load it into the vehicle freshly made to eat at noon.
Each and every one of the accommodations during the safari have been wonderful.
We hope to repeat this trip in a few years to visit other areas of the parks, and without a doubt, we will choose Soul of Tanzania again to carry it out. Everything has been easy, starting with the management and planning of the trip with José C., as once they landed in Tanzania for each and every one of the professionals involved in the route. Thank you all.

Incredible Safari Experience in Northern Tanzania
We had an amazing time travelling through northern Tanzania, the whole experience was everything we had hoped for. Our guide; Omari, was fantastic and really made the holiday special, he went out of his way to make sure we had a great time.
We saw an incredible amount of wildlife, and Omari was so knowledge on all of the birds and animals. The accommodation was equally as good, and the staff at all the hotels and tented lodges we stayed at were extremely welcoming, We absolutely loved it!
Thank you to Luis and everyone at Soul of Tanzania for putting such a fantastic trip together for us.
