An incredible experience from start to finish!
5/5

Where do I begin? We are frequent travelers and have visited over 35 countries so we’ve seen a bit of everything. I must say, I knew this trip would be good, but it was beyond good and incredible!

We were well taken care of from start to finish, which was nice as we didn’t have to think about anything but having an enjoyable holiday. You receive private airport transfers as well as a private vehicle and guide.

Our guide Emmanuel was just fantastic. He was kind and genuine, incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and Tanzanian culture, and he was adaptable if we wanted to change anything. He was who really elevated the trip to make it unforgettable.

As far as the game drives, we saw everything (the big 5, a successful Lion hunt, tons of different animals). It was so much fun!

The hotel lodging and food with Melia and Nimali were top tier and outstanding. I honestly would not change one thing about the trip!

5 day of safari discovering the beauty of animals in their natural habitat, the beauty of nature, a dream come true. The accomodations are beautiful, everything is clean and the staff is helpful, friendly and takes care of you. We will definitely recommend Soul of Tanzania, a special thanks to Sandy B.

Filipa organized an excellent experience to Massai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Zanzibar
5/5

We booked a trip to the Massai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Zanzibar. I can't say enough about how great this trip was. Filipa did an excellent job organizing and coordinating our itinerary. Accommodations, service, and food were fabulous. People were very friendly and went out of their way to make this experience unforgettable. Our safari guide/driver Marco Y. was very flexible and made sure we saw "the big 5". He was the best guide driver we could ask for. He made our experience amazing: good driver, great at spotting animals from afar, and very knowledgeable about nature. Also a shout out to George (our safari guide/driver with Spirit of Kenya) for our Massai Mara safari. He also went out of his way to make our experience the best with including a visit to the Massai village.

Wonderful country with wonderful People
5/5

I spent 3 days with my friend in September on a private safari. Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Unforgettable and amazing moments. Breathtaking. Our guide Frank from The Soul of Tanzania was a attentive, caring, with great knowledge and eager to show us everything that amazing Tanzania National Parks has to offer. I recommend it 200%. The amazing smell of grass burning in the Serengeti, the great hospitality of the Tanzanians, is amazing and unforgettable.A country to fall in love with

An unforgettable safari
5/5

I booked a 3-day safari (Ngorongoro and Serengeti) with Soul of Tanzania and I recommend it because it was an incredible and unforgettable experience. Our guide Julius provided us with 3 wonderful days, always very friendly and very careful when driving. We loved everything, from the food, the accommodation and all the animals we discovered in those fantastic landscapes. I would also like to thank Sandy, from Soul of Tanzania, with whom I shared several emails and who created a program according to our request. From the first contact, everything went very well. Thank you, Sandy!

First class service
5/5

Our trip was perfect! Everything was very well planned, and it exceeded our expectations.
All of the national parks were so fascinating and different from each other. And the places we stayed, the views, omg!
Our guide, Frank, was incredibly knowledgeable about everything. And we were very lucky and saw amazing things as well as animals:)) The lunch we had on the Serengeti plains was once in a lifetime experience.
We dont know how to express our feelings about this trip but we’ve already recommended it to everyone we know:)
Cant thank you enough Jose, our travel planner, for answering all of our questions patiently before the trip:) And our guide Frank, you made this trip unforgettable!

Incredible Safari Tour Tailored Specificaly For Us On Our Honeymoon!
5/5

My wife and I booked a private safari through Soul of Tanzania for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did! Soul of Tanzania was incredibly supportive and helpful with designing an itinerary tailor made for our honeymoon. They helped us choose from many different accommodation types at many different price points to get exactly what was right for us. Their flexibility made planning our trip so much easier than I expected. I was so glad that we were able to include the great migration into the itinerary as well as the Ngorongoro Crater (the best parts of our trip by far)!

We spent a few nights in tented camps and a few nights in nicer lodges ("lodge" and "camp" seem to be the key terms to help differentiate the two). Never had any issues with either of them. Lodges were nicer and more permanent, some had pools to relax and better food options. Camps were more affordable, usually not permeant structures, and didn't have as many amenities, but still were nice (tents were large, there was working toilets, hot water, decent food, wine/beers/alcohol available for purchase).

I want to specifically call out that our guide, Wilson, was incredible. He was very knowledgeable, incredibly kind, accommodating, and fun. We really cannot thank him enough for being so great to us and hope that others are lucky enough to have him too.

The guide assigned to your tour can definitely make or break your trip because you spend so much time with them, you are dependent on their ability to scout animals and share information with you, and hopefully the one you are with respects laws within the parks (we saw guides from other tours throwing rocks at animals to try to get them to move around/run. It was appalling). Our guide was fun, friendly and nothing short of a professional 100% of the time!

Second to none!
5/5

We had an absolutely incredible trip in Africa and the service was fantastic!

The booking process was very smooth and Marta was always available and responsive throughout.

The accommodation selected was amazing, we had a very special time in Nimali Serengeti! Both drivers were very helpful, polite and made us feel welcome - David was also very knowledgeable and accommodating to us!

The hot air balloon experience was a big highlight - we did not expect a service like that. It was professionally organised the views were incredible and the bush breakfast was awesome!

We had one small issue at Ngorogoro crate lodge as the room was booked only for one night - however, this was no stress on us as David was very helpful in informing us of what was happening, and of course so were the company as we had no issues staying the second night!

All our needs were catered to (we are both Vegan) and no details were missed!

We certainly had an unforgettable experience for our honeymoon and most definitely recommend!

Fantastic Safari and Guide!
5/5

Our experience with Soul of Tanzania was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we started planning our trip, Marta, our trip organizer, was incredibly communicative and flexible. She made the entire process so straightforward and accommodating, especially with our last-minute changes. Marta’s professionalism and responsiveness helped ensure we had a smooth, stress-free experience leading up to and during the safari.

A special mention must go to our guide, Emmanuel, who truly made our safari unforgettable. His passion for the wildlife and culture of Tanzania shone through every day. Emmanuel was so patient and kind in answering all of our questions and worked tirelessly to make sure we saw all of the big five animals, including a leopard. We even managed to see cheetahs thanks to his expertise and determination. You could really see his love for what he does, and it made all the difference. We highly recommend requesting Emmanuel as your guide if you get the chance!

Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience, and we would highly recommend Soul of Tanzania for anyone looking to explore the beauty of Tanzania’s wildlife.
