Brilliant experience
We booked a 9-day Southern circuit ( Ruaha, Mikumi, Nyerere) mid-range safari with Zepisa and we were super happy we did so. Nyemo and Husain were always there for us, organized everything exactly as we wished, and even helped us with planning things for after the safari. They are both nice to be around, Husain is insanely good driver and very knowledgable guide and we just loved having him with us. Everything went as smoothly as it can in a country like Tanzania and we felt safe and cared for the whole time. I can wholeheartedly recommend Zepisa to anyone who wishes to make this journey!

An excellent all around experience!
From the time we booked with Nyemo through to the conclusion of our time with Zepisa Safari it was a more than 5 Star experience. We booked a budget safari of Ruaha National Park. The communication with Nyemo was excellent. When we met Girbat (Gilbert) our driver and guide at the hotel our in country experience started and the 5 Star experience continued. Girbat was friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to accommodate our requests. We saw so much wildlife in its natural habitat. We stayed at the Tourist Bandas in the park and Innocent and his team were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The bandas were clean and offered the basic amenities that you need. Remember to bring shampoo if you want to wash your hair, they do provide towels and bar soap. The beds had mosquito nets and the windows had screens. Each room had at least one plug and the plug type was the UK style. Our chef was Patrick and the food was amazing! It was flavorful, plentiful and healthy. We couldn’t believe the variety of food offered and the quality of presentation given the small kitchen he had to work with. The food was overall 5 star for our needs. The vehicle used was of good quality and provided a comfortable ride and excellent opportunity for viewing the various animals, birds and insects. I do not have a negative thing to say about the entire experience. I cannot wait to return and would not hesitate to use or recommend Zepisa Safaris for your Tanzanian Safari.

Very nice
Fifth time in Africa, first time in Tanzania, was lucky enough to have the best guide you could ever find. You can't go wrong with Gilberto, he definately knows how to offer you the best safari experience, guiding you to the best places so you can be sure to observe all the wildlife you were expecting to see: Leopards (we saw 5 of them!), wild dogs (a once in a lifetime solo spotting opportunity), bat eared foxes, etc.
Regarding the park itself, Ruaha is definately the best of all I have visited so far. Quite and peaceful (no big crowds etc), nice bandas and good food, it has everything you need for an unforgetable safari.
Overall an A+ experience, Highly recommended!
Thank you very much mr. Gilberto, thank you Zepisa, looking forward to visiting you again!

Best trip ever!!!
I’ve been to 43 countries but it was the best trip ever for me! Sleeping in the camp with animals around, singing and dancing in the safari car while Nyemo was guiding us, smelling green from all the natures around… food was also fresh and tasty! I’d definitely recommend this tour company if you wanna make your stay in Tanzania special and fun. I’ll def come back :)

Very professional and friendly guides making the safari and amazing experience!
We had a great Safari with Valence and Alois! Valence went above and beyond to make sure that we got to see as many animals as possible and also as close to them as possible.
Alois cooked different meals everyday and they were all very tasty!
Although the Safari was only for 4 days, we still were able to see all of the big 5 and many more animals.
Can totally recommend choosing this safari!

Helpful and reliable safari company
We were looking for a local safari company in Iringa for some Safari in Ruaha Park and reached out to Zepisa Safari. Nyemo replied instantly and gave us different offers that fitted our request. Not only did he make us a fair and good price but he was also very flexible with the dates, because we weren’t sure what day we would arrive in Iringa, our starting point. Without asking for it, he gave us a lot of helpful tips and recommendations for transportation possibilities, accommodation, etc., which we were extremely grateful for. The safari with our guide Abakuki was excellent, the park very authentic and not as touristic as the parks in the northern part of Tanzania and we saw lots of animals including a big group of lions, which was one of our highlights. Nyemo and his crew did everything to make our stay as comfortable and safe as possible. We experienced 3 amazing days in Ruaha National Park and would recommend the company for sure.

Hakuna matata - what a wonderful time!
The safari in Tanzania was an incredible experience for us. Zepisa African Safaris made a special effort to fulfill all our wishes and demands for this holiday. The entire organisation in advance as well as on site was really excellent - from the pick-up at the airport to the end of the safari.
We would especially like to mention our guide during the safari - Gilbert. Apart from his incredible knowledge of animals, we were amazed at his gift for spotting animals effortlessly even at great distances - he always said "let's see what the nature provides for us" - and we saw a lot. We could see that Gilbert lives for this profession and went to incredible lengths to make sure we had "the best adventure of our lives".
In addition, he was very helpful in many ways (e.g. taking pictures, shopping, etc.) and told us a lot about his country, the people and their culture. Gilbert was not only a guide for us, but became a friend. Our safety and well-being was especially close to his heart - we not only spent the safari days together, but also the evenings in the lodges, where he taught us a bit of Swahili. No matter what time of day, Gilbert was always in a good mood, sang songs with us and is a very good safari driver and mechanic.
We felt very comfortable throughout the safari, had lots of fun and had incredible adventures - thank you for that! It was a great pleasure to book the trip through Zepisa African Safaris and to get to know Gilbert through this way - Ahsante sana & tuta onana tena!
