Service was excellent!
Mussa Rajabu is the owner of this company. I went on Safari with him years ago and can’t imagine going on Safari without him. So when I took my family to see the great migration, Mussa was my first choice! He arranged an 8 day Safari in four parks. The lodges and tented camps were great and his k owl edge of the area was excellent. He even helped us locate a place to get COVID tested in the middle of the Serengeti so we could fly back to the US.
He loves animals and is extremely knowledgeable about the parks and the animals. We traveled with two kids which meant stopping early to enjoy the lodge and the swimming pool. I can’t imagine going on Safari without him. You will not be disappointed.

Perfect 5 day safari with Roam Serengeti
We had a great 5 day safari in February with Roam Serengeti - I can highly recommend to choose them for your Serengeti adventure!
We found Roam Serengeti by looking at good-rated safari operators on Tripadvisor. Communication with Mussa was great, he responded always within a few hours. Mussa created a nice 5-day tour for us and also recommended to integrate the southern Serengeti due to the Great Migration there at this time of the year. Our schedule was: 1 day Tarangire, 3 days Serengeti, 1 day Ngorongoro crater. He always made sure that all questions or requests from our side were considered. After booking, we made a prepayment and then decided to pay the whole amount upfront to reduce cash while traveling. Worked perfectly.
Our actual guide was Lyimo and we couldn't think of a better one. He was very experienced (10+ years of experience), knows the area and wildlife very well, was a safe driver and made always sure that we have a great time.
Whenever we come back, we would always ask again for Lyimo and for sure book once more with Roam Serengeti.

my dream came true
I have long dreamed of seeing Serengeti. My dream came true with Roam Serengeti Safaris. Mussa gave me a reasonable price, so my husband and I could spend four wonderful days (2 days Serengeti, 1 day Lake Manyara, 1 day Ngorongoro) on a safari as a private tour. Mussa met us 2 times- not only befor safari also after safari which I think was very professional. Everything was very well organized! I could decide in which camps we want to sleep, nothing was imposed upon us. Ouer guide and driver, Lyimo, was an exscellent and experienced guid. We felt safe with him. We saw many animals, also Big Five and plain migration. We only saw rhinos from afar.
Roam Serengeti has good value for money. I recommend them.

Unforgettable family vacation!!
Our family had the most amazing trip with Roam Serengeti safaris! Everything was perfectly planned and ran so smoothly: from the coordinated pick up and transfer upon arrival, to every meal, every accommodation, down to our departure at the end. Mussa was easy to communicate with, very responsive and thorough in the planning before hand, so we felt confident and clear in our expectations. Lyimo, our personal guide, exceeded any expectations we could have had! His knowledge of the area and the wildlife we encountered made our trip complete and unforgettable! We felt safe, well accommodated, and were thrilled by the endless excitement packed into every single day!! The big 5, the ugly 5, the migration, and so so much more...We saw it ALL! It was the trip of a lifetime for us and our young girls (ages 7 & 8)! We would confidently recommend Roam Serengeti safaris to anyone planning a trip!

Great christmas!!
Mussa was so kind and the driver cared for us. I urgently planned my itinerary, but I kindly organized the tour so I will use Roam serengeti again the next time I visit Serengeti. We traveled during Christmas, saw all the Big 5 animals, and the hostel was the best trip to Tanzania. Camping facilities were also good, so it was the most memorable place to stay.
If you are looking for a tour of Serengeti, I highly recommend this tour company!! Thank you Mussa!

Great!
We did a 4 day safari with Roam Serengeti in early November and everything went even better than we expected!
Mussa, with whom we handled everything via email was very helpfull and organized everything as we wanted.
Seleman, the guide who accompanied us, was impeccable with us. Throughout the safari he tried to explain to us everything he knew about the animals we were seeing and was tireless in finding the animals we most wanted to see, as well as the best angles to enjoy and take pictures of! We got to see the Big Five, it was amazing!
We visited Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park and lastly the Ngorongoro Crater.
The lodgings we stayed at (2 nights at Marera Valley Lodge and 1 night at Mbugani Camps) offer excellent service with regard to comfort, hygiene, safety, food…).
The jeep had wi-fi and power to load equipment, always available drinking water, sufficient food and technical stops (toilet) and excellent hygiene.
Loved the experience with Roam Serengeti! Would repeat again and recommend them without a doubt!

Unforgettable!
It’s hard to put into words our experience on safari with Roam Serengeti Safari. We requested a few quotes on ‘safari bookings’ for the type of trip that we wanted and Mussa’s reply wasn’t the cheapest or the most expensive but what stood out for us was that every single review mentioned Mussa as if they were friends with him. That was the type of guide we wanted too!!
Unfortunately Mussa was injured and unable to take us for our trip but still contacted us regularly and insisted on meeting us at the end to check everything was ok. Mussa’s replacement was Lima who was such a great guy. He looked after us, he had an immense amount of knowledge, he let us use his binoculars because we had forgotten ours, he went out of his way to get us a beer for our evening meals, he made us laugh and on and on. Great guy!
We saw every animal that there is to see (lucky huh!) and we were fed some great meals along the way. It’s not luxurious, and some of the facilities in the campsite aren’t perfect but who cares... you’re on safari?!
Thanks Mussa, thanks Lima - it was awesome!

Amazing first safari experience
While planning for the safary Mussa answered all my questions very patiently. Out guide Safe really knew his way into searching for lions and cool animals. He was very kind to try to show and teach us about every different animal and bird we encountered since it was our first safari adventure!
The jeep was so comfortable and having all that space for both of us was the best part.
The food was great, plenty and respectful with my dietary limitations, thank you Piuce!

An incredible 9 days safari tour with Mussa
I selected Roam Serengeti Safaris,following advices found in Safari Bookings.My first choice was to contact email Mussa RAJABU, the manager of this small company , before buying our 2 flight tickets. Mussa help me to choose the best period (26 sept- 5 oct better than 10-20 oct to see the migration in north serengeti), and to choose the program (2 days tarangire with 1 night camping in the park; 1day road from mto wa mbu after night jambo lodge to north serengeti with stop lake natron, night camping lobo, then 1 night tented camp near mara river to see wildbeests crossing, 2 nights camping seronera central serengeti, 1 night ngorongoro camping before going to crater, 1 night hotel lake eyasi to see very intersting local tribes hunting. After the trip I can tell that all Mussa's choices were the best.At the camp, evening time ,we spoke to other tourists and we saw so much more than others in 1 day ( in all trip we saw 89 lions, 11 leopards, 8 cheetahs , 3 rhinos , 1 wild dog, ..... ) Many details make difference: good tents, thick mattresses, clean sleeping bags, pilow, possible charging battery in the car without adaptor. Any time of the trip, Mussa did the best for us to enjoy, choose best position to take photos. It is probably the best choice if you go for safari with very reasonable prices, he pick up and leave us at airport. The 1st day afternoon , he showed us Arusha market for free, we also visit some markets on the way. For Serengeti especially, it is very important to plan the right program when you go because animals are every month at a different place following the wildbeest migration .Food was very good, the cook called Pius join us during the trip to set the tents, prepare good breakfast withe crepes, eggs, fruits, a lunch box, and a good dinner changing every day. Bottles of mineral water are included for all the tour

A delightful, breathtaking experience of the beauties and wildlife of the Tanzanian savannahs.
Mussa of Roam Serengeti Safaris was an excellent guide. His communication, as we set up the tour from the U.S., was accurate and timely. He was accommodating and flexible in arranging a truly custom and personal safari experience that met our tastes and budget. He got to know our interests and anticipated what we wanted to know and experience. All the details in our itinerary came about as planned. We saw every beauty and animal we had hoped to see, and more, including the wildebeest migration. Mussa was a very careful driver, most appreciated since we covered many miles on our 6-day safari. He began as our tour guide, but ended as our friend. Equally important, we were pleased to go on safari with a Tanzanian who owns and operates his own safari company. I would highly recommend Mussa and Roam Serengeti Safaris to anyone, especially those who would like to have a unique, custom safari experience at a reasonable cost.
