Great christmas!!
5/5

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!

Unforgettable family vacation!!
5/5

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!

my dream came true
5/5

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.

Perfect 5 day safari with Roam Serengeti
5/5

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.

The best way to Safari in Serengeti is with Musa.
5/5

Musa is well organised, very kind, friendly, trustworthy, in short - amazing and a true gentleman.
He has extensive knowledge about the flora and fauna and that makes the safari so much more interesting.

We decided on a last minute safari trip to Tanzania and did not have a massive 'private safari budget'. The big safari companies were offering us bus and van group tours for the budget. Having a bit of safari experience, my first preference will always be private safaris. So i kept researching and that is when I stumbled upon Roam Serengeti Safari.

We contacted Musa with a long list of demands including staying inside the reserve on a budget, and a private 5-6 day tour.
He actually customised the tour and made it possible, down to the last detail in literally 2 days.

It was actually a too good to be true moment and we could not believe how lucky we got until the trip actually began.

Every trip we take from now on to Tanzania or Kenya for a safari will only be with Musa and Roam Serengeti Safaris. Why look elsewhere when you already have the best.

Service was excellent!
5/5

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.

A life changing trip!
5/5

Mussa was the guide recommended by other military families in my husband's US Navy unit during his year-long deployment to Djibouti to serve on a task force in 2007. The spouses in the unit would fly to Tanzania to meet their husbands on leave and go on safari. Mussa became the guide that all the military couples wanted to use because he was totally trustworthy, reliable, professional, and extremely knowledgable.

We met Mussa at the Kilimanjaro airport and our adventure began! For a week, he was our personal guide for amazing overnights at Whistling Thorn tented camp, luxury coffee plantations, Taringare,Ngorogoro Crater, and the Serengeti. Mussa was so skilled at finding the best sights and relaying his knowledge of the animals, terrain, and culture.

My husband and I knew we would come back to Tanzania one day, but only if Mussa would be our guide. He is a good man with a beautiful family and we have remained friends. Don't risk not knowing who your guide will be. Hire Mussa and have peace of mind that you will have an amazing trip with honest pricing.

an excellent choice with Mussa
5/5

in 2019 with my wife we visited during 1 week the parks of tarangire (2days) serengeti (4days) and ngorongoro (1day) and also the tribes near lake Eyasi. Mussa the owner of Roamserengeti safaris was our driver and guide.this experience was so fantastic if I compare with other african countries visited that I decide to come back with my 2 sons (adults) 1 more time
I contact Mussa again and we planned this trip for 9 days in sept-oct 2023 (3 days Tarangire, 2 days north Serengeti, we entered Serengeti at Klein's gate in the north after visiting lake Natron, 3 days central Serengeti and 1 day Ngorongoro crater
We decide as 4 years ago to sleep in tents in public campsites excepted 1 night in self contained tent near Mara river
With Mussa was a very good cook who prepared 3 meals per day for us and set tents.we took breakfast very early and dinner in the campsite and lunch in a picnic area in the parc, tents were big with good and thick matresses,we could charge batteries in the car.We saw from 6AM to 6 PM so many animals, especially big cats
Mussa with his experience put his car in the best position to take pictures and anytime took the best decision for everything
I defintively recommand Mussa for an experience in the tanzanian Parcs,he drives also very well and adapt himself to what you want to see. We discuss together in english.

Don’t hesitate - book with the best!!!
5/5

We had the most amazing private safari experience with Roam Serengeti Safaris! Mussa put together a wonderful 8 day safari program for us and we enjoyed plentiful animal viewings in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. We saw the big 5, the wildebeest migration, and, at our request, Mussa even helped arrange a great hot air balloon ride for us. The accommodations were beyond expectations - gorgeous locations / views, the warmest hospitality, and even great food. The entire trip was MAGICAL! And all thanks to the immense knowledge and caring that Mussa and our incredible guide Ole put into the business. They truly care about their guests, and it shows. We learned so much about the land, animals, culture, history… and left with new friends.

Many people hesitate to book with a small company like this - we get it, it’s a big investment of our time and money, you want to trust your choice - and often choose the large, well-known companies, but I can’t urge you enough to trust in booking with Roam Serengeti Safaris. You won’t regret it. As two women traveling, we felt so safe and cared for, and never had a worry. The value for your money versus the large companies is without compare too - you get SO much more here - plus you are investing locally in the gorgeous country of Tanzania. I can’t recommend them highly enough!!!
