Extrordinary and unforgettable experience
We had a wonderful and unforgettable safari!
We spent a lot of time looking for the right company and it was one of the best decisions we made when we booked our safari experience with Soul of Tanzania.
Our guide, Pius, was very helpful and experienced, he has tremendous knowledge of animals and answering our questions with patience.
Our 7 days safari to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro conservation Area, South Serengeti, Central Serengeti was amazing experience for us. Pius is a very good driver which is important on the Africa bumpy road and he had good relationships with other guides which is very helpful for us to get information for finding the animals.
During our journey we were offered hot lunches with cold wine. Overall, we would highly recommend Soul of Tanzania and especially Pius as a tour guide.
Also we would like to thank their Journey Desiner Lious, Supvisor Ben and whole team for helping us to get an unforgettable trip in Africa.

Amazing and unforgetable.
I booked this as a solo tour and was immediately impressed by my guide, Daniel from Donak Safaris, who also quickly became my friend. He went above and beyond to ensure that I had the best experience I could have and I saw some amazing things. I asked over 1,000 questions and he answered each one with enthusiasm just as excited to tell me the answer as I was to hear it. Bonus, an onboard fridge full of cold beer mixed with large animals... best experience anyone could imagine.
Like many people, I had lots of questions and jitters about going away. Through email before leaving all of my questions and concerns were answered almost instantly (allow for time difference). Soul of Tanzania did an amazing job booking me the best accommodations I could have imagined.
Bonus, eating a hot lunch with a bottle of wine 10 feet away from a pond of bathing hippos.

Best safari experience ever!
I would highly recommend Soul of Tanzania for safari tour. It was one of the best and most interesting experiences of my life. We went to 4-day safari tour with the guide name Aman. He was very polite, with a lot of knowledge about animals and national parks that we have visited. Every day we had cooked meal, very tasty. We went to Serengeti, Ngorogoro park and crater and Lake Manyara. We have seen a lot of animal in there natural environment and natural behavior, which is the best you can do. There are no words which can describe our experience.

Incredible Seven Day Safari
The name of the company itself says much. The 'soul' of Tanzania was definitely revealed to us on our incredible seven day safari through its amazing variety of wildlife, beautiful people, delicious food and outstanding service. It all began with Helena, whom I contacted asking for an itinerary and quote. I had contacted several other safari companies but Soul of Tanzania immediately stood out because of Helena. Her replies were so warm and friendly and welcoming. She replied promptly to every email, answered all my million questions and put together a fantastic itinerary for my husband and me. And tailored it to fit our budget as well. Our guide Emmanuel was just excellent! So knowledgeable, friendly and always happy. He knew every bird and animal! We had lovely, lengthy conversations about every topic under the sun and learnt so much about each other's lives and cultures. Our itinerary included Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Lade Ndutu (Southern Serengeti), Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Crater. All the lodges we stayed at were perfect in every way - food, rooms, service, surroundings. Our safari drives were amazing and we saw a mind boggling number of animals and birds! We were truly in wildlife paradise. We were pretty much the only people who had a 'hot lunch' every day of the safari while most tour companies only provided a boxed lunch to their guests. Emanuel would spread out the pretty Masai style table cloth and lay out all the dishes. There's usually wine provided at every lunch, but we chose beer (all included). Having a cold beer with lunch on a hot safari day is the absolute best! Our safari vehicle was always kept clean by Emanuel and it was well stocked with cold water (thanks to the mini fridge), juices and beer. There was a charging point to charge our cameras and phones too. In addition to the great service this company already provided, Helena went above and beyond to provide us with after-safari service as well! Our camera got damaged as I accidentally bumped the lens against the side of the car when our vehicle hit a ditch during a game drive. I am now in the process of submitting a claim to our insurance company and I had to get a letter about the incident. Helena once again rose to the occasion and promptly sent me a well drafted letter all within a a few hours of sending my request! Now that's what I call outstanding customer service!
All in all, we loved our experience and we will forever cherish all the beautiful memories we made in this beautiful country. Asante Sana Soul of Tanzania!

AMAZING TEAM
Soul of Tanzania is a very professional company. While we were trying to organize our trip, Helena from the head office, proposed us all the possible options, she was always helpful and patient with all our questions and changing requests.
I definitely have to special thanks to Huruma, with his professionalism in guiding, his experience in determining the animals, his hospitality and his kindness.
Huruma was the STAR of our 5 day trip His knowledge on wildlife is impressive. He took right decisions and made sure we missed nothing.
My son loved him very much. Huruma was so patient when answering the questions my son asked even same question was asked 10-15 times with in 15 minutes Huruma answered very kindly and patiently as it was asked for the first time.
Thank you Helana, Thank you Benedict, Thank you Aziz and Thank you thank you HURUMA. You made our trip perfect.

Excellent Safari
We had five days Safari in Tanzania on Jan 2019. Our route is Arusha - Tarangire National Park - Ndutu Lake - Serengeti National Park - Ngorongoro. It was excellent trip.
Daniel, our Safari guide，is very professional and experienced. He knows a lot of about the animals. In addition to seeing the big five, we also saw a lot of warm animal families. The hot lunch in Safari were very, very wonderful. It was feel so great that "an amazing hot meal with a nice glass of red or white wine and everyone else is staring at our table like 'well what tour company is that!?'” We really had a memorable time and enjoyed Africa’s Nature.

Experience of a Lifetime!
After a lot of consideration we decided to go ahead with Soul of Tanzania for our honeymoon. Our 5 day safari was tailor made and focused exactly on what we had asked. Right from our first email exchange with Soul to the time we said our goodbyes, everything was given special attention. What's special about Soul is that when they say - full board - they mean serious business. We had hot lunches everyday with new dishes and a mini fridge at our disposal which was always stocked with beverages and fruits!
Our guide Daniel who was truly a professional, left no stone unturned in order to get us up close and personal with the 'Big 5'. His knowledge about the flora and fauna of Tanzania coupled with his hospitable and friendly nature was more than we could have asked for.
We had a six seater land cruiser to ourselves. It had charging points which really helped in charging our cameras and phones. All national parks have check points and picnic areas which are quipped with clean bathrooms which was a blessing!
I would recommend booking with Soul to not only our friends and family but everyone out there who wants to experience African wildlife in it's full glory. We would never be able to forget how this experience made us feel.
Most definitely, this wouldn't have been possible without Soul Of Tanzania!

Great safari with great company!
Journey started with planning. I reviewed a lot of proposals on Safaribookings and liked the one proposed by Soul of Tanzania. Unfortunately it was only for 4 days and I wanted for 6 days. I sent a request for custom journey with some personal wishes and immediately got and answer from Sandy with the custom proposal. We discusses many detals before the trip, Sandy always answers immediately.
Then we made a payment and came to Kilimanjaro. Our guide Edward (a real professional!) met us in the airport. After this moment we could relax and thought only about which animal we can see today)).
We could see leopards twice, one time even with kids. We've seen cheetahs, many lions, elephants and many other animals.
We had no one issue during our journey. Just relaxed, didn't worry about anything. It's very important for us that the journey was exactly how we planned, no even minor changes. Accomodation as planned (I could check the ratings beforehand on Tripadvisor), planned routes. No surprises!
Clean and new car, as many water as I need, and I espessially like hot meals for lunch instead of lunch box.
There was a power socket in the car, we could charge camera batteries and phones. It's very important as our Serengeti camp had problems with charging.
We took standard accomodation variant and found all camps and lodges quite acceptable. The staff was friendly and rooms comfortable.
Next time I will go to safari only with Soul of Tanzania.
