From the first correspondence, impeccable service for an unforgettable adventure
I did a lot of research when it came to a tour operator because I was bringing a group of 15 family and friends with me and from the very beginning, Soul of Tanzania provided excellent communication and service. They were timely with their emails and spot on with their recommendations. When one person in our party had a delayed flight and missed the first day of our safari, they found a way to reconnect her with our group as soon as she landed. The tour they recommended ended up being amazing - from the night safari to visiting a Maasai village, every experience was worth it.
Our guides were PHENOMENAL - all three were professional and knowledgeable, funny and efficient. The guides stayed with us through our entire 8 day safari and every day, they showed up fully for us. On one of the afternoons, one of the trucks had a major problem and even then, they solved the issue in a timely manner, took care of us first, and got us safely to our next destination. They handled all of the park fees, set up our lunches for us, and took all the rest stops we needed. They knew about the parks, the animals, the trees and the birds and always made sure to communicate with us each morning regarding the day's itinerary and what we could expect.
A safari in Tanzania is a bucket list experience and Soul of Tanzania delivered the most unforgettable experience and made the entire process seamless and simple. Not only that, they solved issues we had on the fly in a professional manner. I would use them again and cannot recommend them enough.

The Best Family Adventure!
What an amazing adventure!! We visited for a custom 11-day safari through Kenya and Tanzania with our 9-year old daughter. The Soul of Tanzania, in partnership with the Sprit of Kenya, made our adventure seamless from beginning to end. We planned the trip with Jose, our first guide in Kenya was Charles, our Tanzania guide was Lema, and our final guide back in Kenya was Ken -- everyone was spectacular.
The lodges and camps were lovely and the food at each location was great. We added a hot air balloon ride in Maasai Mara and a Maasai Village visit in Tanzania - both such memorable experiences. While traveling around on rough roads for so many days, we really appreciated having a private vehicle for the best viewing opportunities and guides that customized the experience just for us.
Charles helped us see the Big 5 in Kenya in the first three days, including a lion hunt within 5 minutes into our first park (Lake Nakuru) and an unforgettable cheetah encounter in Maasai Mara with a mother and her four adolescent cubs! Not to be outdone, Lema in Tanzania went out of his way to make the experience special for us and our daughter, and we were able to see the Big 5 in Tanzania as well. Our favorite encounter in Tanzania was finding a lion pride with three mothers and EIGHT cubs at a remote lake. There were very few vehicles present, so it was a special moment to just watch the family doze by the water.
We whole-heartedly recommend doing a private tour to experience the best of Kenya and Tanzania on your terms, and 100% recommend Soul of Tanzania and Spirit of Kenya to trust with your once-in-a-lifetime adventure!! Asante sana!

Exceptional service that blended humor, excitement and decades of experience.
I wish I could have stayed. Our tour operators - Stanley, Morrise and Marco - were not only knowledgeable about the destinations, animals and how best to approach each situation for optimal results, they were great fun. We laughed across the Serengeti and amazed at Stanley's willingness to answer the most inane questions repeatedly. All drivers were courteous with other tour groups on the journey and worked together to achieve the best results for their clients. I can think of nothing negative - 8 days of wonder and beauty. Thank you to everyone at this organization that made this trip perfect!

Excellent for the organization anf friendliness of the staff.
A few days ago we returned to Argentina after a wonderful trip, which Sandy our Journey Designer for Soul of Tanzania, organizad for us.
Every thing was perfect.
We were a family of 17 clildren and adults. It´s not easy to travel with many young children, as we did, but the coordination , quality of hotels, transportation, knowledge, friendliness and patience of our guide Morri en two other drivers, made it possible and a real pleasere.
I will strongly recommend Soul of Tanzania, Morri as a guide, and the drivers, to any one who wants to go on a Safari through that wonderful country that is Tanzania. We did Serengeti and Norongoro. This was my third Safari Journey, and no doubt the best one.
I want to thank Soul of Tanzania, Sandy, Morri and all the staff on behalf of my entire family.

Trip of a life time with Soul of Tanzania
My wife and myself went on a Safari in Tanzania in July with Soul of Tanzania for our Honeymoon .
We spent 5 nights in Tanzania and we visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was an amazing experience, the best trip we have had in our life so far.
Soul of Tanzania is definitely an impressive and fully reliable company.
Sandy, our journey designer, has been very patient, helpful and kind: she replied quickly to our hundreds of emails and she provided very good advices on how to organize the trip and which parks to visit. Thank you Sandy.
Our guide in Tanzania was Dominic. Dominic is a great guide: he was very attentive to our needs and desires all days and all time, he provided us with a lot information regarding Tanzania, its parks and animals, and he made all his best to let us enjoy the trip - and no doubt he succeded!!
In addition, the jeep used for the safari was absolutely comfortable, the food provided for lunch during the safari was delicious and the accomodations we selected with the support of Sandy were amazing.
Thank you SoT for thia amazing experience!
If we will ever organize another safari again in the future, no doubt we will go with Soul of Tanzania!!!

Fantastic Safari Experience with Soul of Tanzania
We just made 4 safari days with Soul of Tanzania, and everything was quite perfect! it was quite hard to do almost 800 km in 4 days on Serengueti "High Way" :-) but it's safari spirit and hakuna matata! ; 2 families, 8 people, 2 jeeps; our safari reference Filipa Pedrosa was always available with quick feedbacks and recommendations since the first contact and our guides/drivers Moses and Yona were 5 stars! Moses always trying to get the best location for animals view and always with a smile! Also Hot air ballon experience is a must!

Beyond my expectations
I had a great experience, which went beyond my wildest expectations.
The planning was precise and detailed, my travel designer was prompt and accurate in her answers.
During the adventure, my guide was perfect: careful, precise and punctual; I have really appreciated his services and attentions.
Landscapes and wildlife were astonishing and I felt like Karen Blixen!
What I saw, was so wonderful and I filled my eyes, mind and heart with beauty. Tarangire, Ngorongoro and(in particular) Serengeti gave me exactly what I expected.
The accommodations (different among each other) didn't disappoint me and everywhere I appreciated staff’s politeness.
I strongly suggest Soul of Tanzania for your adventure in Tanzania!

An unforgettable amazing experience.
We went in August of 2024 for a 9 days Private Safari with Soul of Tanzânia organized by attending Marta and executed by the guide Hibubu.
Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti Central and Serengeti North for the migration crossing of Mara River.
We saw an enormous quantity of wild animals and we loved everything - Safari, Guide Habibu, Baloon Safari, Lodges, Hot lunch and specially the river crossing.
Musts: Serengeti Central for a gigantic amount of wild animals, very close to the jeep. And for the Baloon Safari. Serengeti North, if in the right season - for watching the gnus Mara River crossings. We stayed 3 days at North and saw 6 crossings, including some with crocodiles runts. Amazing.
A special thanks for Habibu, our guide, who was incredibly.
Lodges: @Karibu camps @acacia_collections @escarpmentluxurylodge1 @serengetiballoonsafaris
We liked than all a lot! The internet in Acacia is not good. A small problem in our opinion. The location of Karibu Camp in the North Serengeti is ideal for the Mara river Crossing. Is really amazingly near the best spot to see the crossing.
We highly recommend this trip with Soul of Tanzânia.
