High-end memorable safari from Nairobi to Kilimanjaro
The company organized a wonderful trip for us; all tailored for our needs and according to the dates that we were available. Sandy, our travel designer was always willing to help, providing the requested information on a timely manner.
Specially we would like to highlight the extraordinary work from our guide in Tanzania, Sadat.
He has been an extraordinary guide to us, very knowledgeable of the field and the wildlife all together. He has been very caring and patient during the entire trip, always willing to help and to make the most of our trip in terms of tracking animals; he has also been very diligent in driving safely even in the rough conditions of the roads; respectful, kind and a very warm person that has won our affection even after the trip is over, remembering him and our trip very dearly.

The Perfect Safari
My wife and I went on a private safari tour with Soul of Tanzania, and we could not have been more pleased with the experience.
We visited Tanzania in May for a friend’s wedding in Dar Es Salaam, and though we were a little worried about the rainy season, we decided to try to do a three day Safari before the wedding. After contacting about eight Safari companies on SafariBooking.com, I ultimately chose Soul of Tanzania because of their great reviews, competitive pricing, professional response, and honest feedback on what we could do in the time we had available.
The experience was fantastic, with perfect weather, beautiful panoramic views, and incredible animal sightseeing. Our tour guide, Daniel, spoke seven different languages and gave us great insight on the parks as well as Tanzanian culture and society. One of the highlights was the conversations with Daniel as we drove between the parks. He was also an expert at knowing all the right spots to find wildlife.
There’s a lot of Safari tour guide companies out there, but to make things simple, I’d say just choose this one and ask for Daniel Mkojera to be your guide.

Amazing Experience- Soulmates for Life
Soul of Tanzania and our guide Solomon, have left us with a life changing experience, from the time we booked until we had to say our goodbyes. From the first moment we met, it was obvious Solomon’s goal was to exceed expectations in everything we did and saw. So accommodating, so experienced, so much fun. We saw the Big 5 animals, the Great Migration on our “Just Married” trip and so much more. Hakuna Matada !!! We could not have asked for a better trip, booking company and guide - thank you all.

Awesome experience!
I have always dreamed of visiting Africa and seeing the animals on safari. Booking our safari thru Soul of Tanzania was the best decision! Helena was our planner and was super helpful and patient with our many, many questions and emails during planning and everyone was very professional. The trucks and facilities were great and our private driver, Emmanuel, was fantastic! He has a vast knowledge of the animals and the parks, and went out of his way to make sure we saw everything. Tarangire is a must-visit on this once in a lifetime trip!

Safari in Tanzania with SoT
10 of us went to Tanzania. While the country and the people are amazing, our safari experience was made
so much better thanks to Soul of Tanzania. This is a great set up - very organised, very hospitable and very knowledgeable.
We did Kili, Ngorongoro,Serengeti and Zanzibar. It was magical thanks to SoT.

Magical, unique and perfect safari experience
My husband and I booked the Living Among Lions experience, as we wanted to celebrate our anniversary with a completely different trip.
This safari tour was incredible, 100% perfect. No errors, no mistakes. They know what they are doing. From the beginning when we approach Soul of Tanzania, the booking team was kind, polite, fast, and helpful. The experience with our Django Master; Kennedy was superb, he has an impressive knowledge of the parks, animals and also experience when driving, as a tour guide and as a local. We had an amazing time during the 5 days safari, we saw all the animals including the big 5: lions, elephants, leopards, rhino and buffaloes. The hotels they recommended us were impressive. We stayed at the Lake Manyara Lake camp, Pumzika Lodge and Rhino Lodge. All of them stunning, and in perfect conditions. Our favourite: Pumzika Lodge, the true “glamping” experience. The food provided was delicious. The tours they recommend also very on top. All safe and with clarity in times and details. This eye-on-detail-company, has an impressive professional approach, they are friendly, organised and experts doing safaris. No doubt we have chosen the bests! Thanks you for touching our hearts!

A unique experience! Best Safari
Jambo Jambo!
We booked the tour 5 days living among lions. Our guide Kennedy was super friendly a fantastic driver and an extraordinary safari guide. Kennedy has years of experience and every other guide comes to say hi to Mr Kennedy he knows how animals are going to behave and were they will probably be. The entire team of soul of tanzania has made this Safari the trip of a lifetime they are professional, quick to respond and take care of every detail. There are many company out there but if you want to have a fantastic experience go with Soul of Tanzania

Fantastic tour operators - highly recommend!
I took a 4 day safari through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater with Soul of Tanzania tours and had an excellent experience!
My group had a delayed flight and had to shift our entire safari start/end time back by a day (separate note - Qatar airways has terrible customer service - do not use them if you can avoid!). Soul was extremely quick on response time through the ordeal and managed to rebook our entire trip on extremely short notice. They didn't charge us a penny for all the rebooking, and they frankly saved the entire trip.
The trip itself was excellent. The hotel in Arusha, as well as the two tented lodges we stayed in were across the board perfect. The food in the lodging was great, and they accommodated all of our special dietary requests.
Our guide, Pius, answered all of our *many* questions, and did an excellent job spotting animals and navigating throngs of safari vehicles to get us the best possible views.
It's difficult to distinguish between the many options for tour operators, but we would highly recommend Soul for a few specific reasons:
* Extremely fast response time in communication - this was critical during our travel issues
* Delicious food - other operators provide boxed lunches while out on game drives, but Soul provides hot meals. We were the envy of all other tours!
Thank you Soul for an unforgettable week!

Exceptional!
We were on honeymoon in Tanzania. We chose to do a 5 day Safari (Tarangire, Serengeti and Nongorogoro crater) and 4 day in Zanzibar.
The Soul of Tanzania services and attention to the details clearly stands out from the other safari companies. The picnic lunches were amazingly prepared compared to the others, and the food was amazing, also the planning of our trip was carefully personalized by Helena to attend our requests.
Our guide Deo is the man!!! He was calm, funny, very knowledgeable about the countries’ history, the nature, the animals. We saw all the animals very close!
If you are doing a safari with The Soul of Tanzania I strongly recommend that you choose Deo as your guide!
To be honest, we could not ask for more than we got.
Zanzibar was a final treat to rest. We stayed at The Dream of Zanzibar hotel that was recommended by Helena. Everything went smoothly. There was someone picking us up at the airport and dropping us at the hotel, and the other way as well.
From our hearts, thanks a lot Helena, Deo and all the crew from The Soul of Tanzania!
