Amazing experience! 5 Star Guide (Herman), Service, and Trip
From the beginning process of booking the trip all the way to the actual safari, we got treated with VIP service. The team is extremely experienced, professional, and thoughtful. They really pay attention to your needs and customize the trip accordingly.
Special shout-out to your guide Herman. The trip would not have been the same without him. We highly, highly recommend using him for your next safari adventure! He is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable, very friendly, engaging and entertaining, respectful of the animals, and plans the trip around your preferences. He is also amazing at spotting animals- we were able to see all of the Big 5. We honestly could not have asked for anyone better. He truly made our experience even more memorable and we now have a friend for life.
Also, while on the trip we got to enjoy hot lunches, which is unique to only a few of the safari companies. All the equipment provided to us was state-of-the art, and the vehicle we used was extremely comfortable, spacious, and very well maintained. During our safari, we also stayed at a mixture of camps and luxury lodges, all of which Soul booked for us. We very pleased with all of the selections and would definitely stay at them again.
Overall, I highly recommend using Soul of Tanzania for your next vacation. Though they are a relatively new company, the service, accommodations, itinerary, and guides are all 5 star. We could not have asked for a more organized or enjoyable trip, so we will definitely be using them again. The whole team really made the trip as incredible as it was.

Beyond all expectations - couldn't be better!
Soul of Tanzania made our trip unforgettable and beyond all expectations. The highlight was our guide, Ben, who made our journey so unique. His knowledge and his passion about the wildlife is impressive and he has a great personality. He was always looking for the hidden gems and very often managed to show us truly private meetings with the animals and not just the often very crowded seeings, since many places are very filled with cars from other companies. Oh, let's not forget about his coffee!!(Asanti Sana, Kaka!).
A differential is that they provide hot lunch, with local homemade food, wine and juice during the safari all served in metal plates so we made almost no trash in our meals (while all the other companies offer lunch boxes).
The car (a Land Cruiser for 6 people) was new and very well maintained. The organization, from the beginning to the end, was really good. We are so grateful for everything we lived during these 10 day safari journey.

Pius is the best guide ever! Amazing safari
Everything five stars. Amazing lunches in the wild, we had this amazing guide called Pius who could magically feel where the animals would be. Really nice car. All the big5 and even a hunt. Only 4 days safari and we saw everything. Magical experience. Communication was top notch too.
The best park is Serengeti, than Ngorongoro. Tarangire so so but beautiful. Cheers

Brilliant guide, great experience - we never expected to see so much
We recently had a 7-day safari with Soul of Tanzania and it was a really great experience.
Our guide, Herman, was helpful, knowledgeable, and was obviously passionate about his work. He had an amazing talent for spotting animals, and we got to see some rare species that other guides missed.
Everything about the trip - food, accommodation, the vehicle - was of a high quality. The hot lunches were a great feature as well. Communications with the company were easy, and a representative came to meet us in Arusha.
I would definitely recommend Soul of Tanzania, and Herman, to anyone planning a safari in the region.

Breath taking
This was the best trip I wever made. They organised everything so well that I almost forgot I was so far way from home. I felt always so cared for. The food was amazing. The drivers were very nice and they knew all about the animals. Our driver sang to us the song Akuna matata!! During the safari we were able to see the big 5 and lots of others animals. The hotels were very nice and confortable with views breath taking! Iris thank you very much!

Want an experience of a lifetime,look no further
We were a family of five, and from the first of communications with "Soul of Tanzania" we knew that we would be well-taken care of. Even more so our expectations were pleasantly exceeded!! In fact, we were the envy of other tour company guests as they peered over our "Hot Lunches" with wine that was provided daily on our safari!!While they dined from boxed lunches. The hi-light of our safari was our guide, Nico. He ran everything to our schedule and liking and was exceptionally knowledgeable with "ALL" the wildlife. To cap off our safari vacation, Nico purchased a Masi robe as a gift for our 8 yr. old and adorned him with it as his parting gift to us, which brought a tear of joy to my wife. I feel that in a short time we became like family...it was that GOOD. So do you want a safari vacation of a lifetime, above the rest...look no further.
The only suggestion I might make is if "Soul of Tanzania" had a little parting memento (ie) golf hat, t-shirt, keychain etc.

Great experience
Its my 6th safari and the 2nd in Tanzania. The guide was probably the best I've had before and the experience was very smooth. Great customer care, both before and after safari. No complains at all, exceeded the expectations completely.

Legendary!
This is a young company but everyone working there from management to staff to guides have all been working in top positions in the industry for more than a decade. The level of comfort we had during our tour was difficult to imagine. Our vehicle was almost new, absolutely top notch and the best I saw in the parks. For lunch, instead of having a lunch box like everyone else (even those staying at the really high end camps), we always had a full table set for lunch with forks, knives, and even wine stand, wine and, on some occasions, even hot food on pots.
The guide was the best (Benson), he was polite but always enthusiastic and engaging us in all the stories he had to tell us. I am not back in Tokyo but I definitely want to return for a longer experience and there is no other company I will consider.
Thanks to everyone, you are the best.
