Great Safari
It was great three days of safari thanks to Lameck & Safari360. We got to see the big 5 & had a cultural tour in the process. Nothing but praises & recommendations.

Once in a lifetime safari
Ndutu is quite special during the calving season & we got to witness this amazing wonder. Kudos to Exaud for the superb driving & wildlife spotting skills. We saw more than we could have imagined & was a bit sad when it all ended. We will come back again Safari360.

I would advise you don't book
I have been to Kenya and Tanzania a number of times. This trip that I booked with Safari360 was my worst experience ever. I almost lost my life because Petro runs a business that uses totally filthy, substandard and unsafe vehicles, and crowns it with unprofessional drivers to take unsuspecting travelers for a ride. The first jeep that I was sent did not have any working windows or doors. They did not open from the inside, and had to be pried open from the outside by the Driver, whenever needed. That 2 seater jeep was filthy, smelled, and had one "functional" seat, but no seat belts. The driver had the switch to open and close the windows as the switches by the windows were inoperable. He smashed my fingers in the window a total of 4 times as he could not control the switch. When I asked for a replacement vehicle, I was sent a 6 seater Toyota Range Rover. At first I was relieved when I saw it from the outside. However, very soon I learned that it was no different from the first vehicle. I was basically made to jump from the frying pan into the fire. This vehicle had totally broken seats, no seat belts on any of the seats, and again doors and windows that were not operable from the inside, The vehicle appeared never to have been cleaned from the inside, but worst of all, various parts of this poorly maintained jeep kept breaking down. We had a total of 4 breakdowns with issues ranging from the rear axle, to the shock absorbers and followed by the struts. The final blow was when the brakes failed. The driver had to pull into mechanic shops at remote villages where we spent between 2 to 4 hours getting the repair work done. Petro, and his partner, who provides the transport, did not approve any fuel purchase along the way. As per his calculations he had provided enough fuel for the entire journey. At no point had he taken into consideration the lousy and treacherous road conditions and other factors that could and did affect the "mpg or kpl." I had to pay for the gas out of pocket as it was either that or be stuck in the middle of nowhere. The height of indifference and couldn't careless attitude on the part of Petro and his partner towards the safety of the Driver and me was reached when the brakes of the Range Rover failed as we were descending towards a valley on a very steep hill with a 7% grade, as the posted signs showed. We would have ended in a head-on collision with a truck that was going the opposite direction because the bus behind the truck decided to pass him without bothering to see if it was safe to do so. The road was very narrow in both directions. How we did not have a fatal collision with failed brakes is still a mystery to me, and gives me the creeps till today. Your entire life truly flashes before your eyes at that moment. After this incident we drove downhill to the very next village at 5kpl. We were fortunate to find a mechanic who spent 3 hours fixing the brakes. I have never had such a harrowing trip anywhere in the world since I have been traveling. Please, I advise you do not use Safari360. Petro's only objective is to make money. Period! He is an unscrupulous, unethical and unprofessional Safari Tour operator. Your safety is never his concern. I wonder if the Tanzanian Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism that issues Safari Operator licenses are even aware of how businesses are run once they issue the licenses. Does that department even have any checks and balances or monitor these businesses. Since Tourism is a major income generator for the government I am sure they would be interested in hearing about some of these horribly and unsafe practices by some tour operators. That is something worth looking into. Buyer Beware.
Reply from Safari360
Posted on Feb 12, 2025Dear Aruna,
Many thanks for reaching out & airing out your concerns.
First & foremost let me take this opportunity to apologize for any shortcomings that you encountered on the safari.
The aim of the company is to provide unforgettable safaris that the client will always remember & not otherwise.
As human beings we all have our shortcomings & sometimes fall short of expectations for which we must apologize.
In the meantime, I must point out that for a safari to be successful communication between both parties should be open & free without any encumbrances.
You booked the 11-Day Grand Migration Safari in August 2024 & being a solo traveler we provided you with a 4-seater safari jeep for the tour. On the onset of the tour you were not happy with the jeep & the reason being that you required a 7-seater due to the fact that you were a photographer. If this information was communicated beforehand we would have provided you with an open jeep & the quote would have changed accordingly. We had to recall the jeep & thereby sent a 7-seater safari jeep. If you had any issue with the replacement safari jeep & driver the same should have been communicated to the office via email or whatsapp asap & we would have offered replacements for the same. We did this with the first safari jeep & would have done it again so as to ensure a great safari. Our safari guides are both great in spotting wildlife & also superb in elementary mechanics, and in your case the guide was able to diagnose & fix the issue quickly. This led to the successful completion of your 11 day tour.
Our fleet comprises of very well maintained and reliable land cruisers but unfortunately we don’t have a RANGE ROVER in the fleet as that’s a milestone yet to be achieved.
After the successful completion of the tour you booked our 11-Day Spectacular Tanzania Safari due to start in August 2025. Despite disagreements about the same we do hope that level heads will prevail & we look forward to hosting you again.

What a wonderful safari - big five, check
What a wonderful time we have on our safari with Witson from Safari360. We were picked up and spent the next four days in Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. What a amazing experience for us, a family of 5, being alone with our guide in the jeep for a few days. We saw elephants and giraffes passing by at arms length, lions eating breakfast in the morning. We almost got stuck in the mud at one time but the excellent guide fixed that too. That was also a experience for us. We saw the black rhino in Ngorongo Crater, lions casually sleeping at the side of the road. We managed to spot a cheetah far away and also a leopard relaxing in a tree. All this would not have been possible with a guide like Witson, who knew where to drive and look. The whole package was really good, from the food packages we hade every day to the accommodations we had in Serengeti and outside of the parks. We especially like the "Tukaone Serengeti Camps", where you sleep in tent-like houses in the national park. In the night we heard both lions and other animals that was passing by outside our room. My best possible recommendation to this company and our guide Witson.

Godlove is the best guide ever!!
I highly recommend Godlove as a safari guide. His extensive knowledge of wildlife and the ecosystem enhanced our experience immensely. Godlove is not only a careful driver, ensuring our safety while navigating challenging terrain, but he also possesses a keen eye for spotting animals. Throughout our trip, he shared fascinating insights, making each sighting even more meaningful. Thanks to Godlove, we had an unforgettable adventure filled with learning and wonder. Much love from Israel, hope to see you soon, Noy & Yair

Very reliable , Very recommendable!
We had an amazing 5 day tour with Idi, and we enjoyed it very much!
We recommend this company, as they are very reliable, informative, responsive and go amazing length to satisfy.
Planning the trip was easy, petro answered all of our questions, made changes to the trip according to our requests, upgraded us for no extra cost on the first night accommodation, and most importantly, helped me plan a beautiful proposal! They did it so discreetly my fiancé never suspected anything!
The cars are very well built, we had outlets for charging and a fridge for our drinks. All of our bags were safely buckled and covered so won't get dusty.
The only things I would say are missing was some hot drinks and Internet connection on the roads (some other companies have WiFi in the cars, and would bring a picnic box to keep the lunch warm and hot water for coffee or tea). The AC didn't work in the jeep but honestly was not necessary as the weather was perfect, and on the long drive from the airport to the safari we were driven in a taxi which was comfortable, we were able to catch some sleep.
The guide we had was a natural, took us where we wanted, show to all the animals, great choice in hiring him! he even gave us really good binoculars so we were able to have a great game drive.
We had the most amazing time, don't hesitate, this is the right company to pick for an amazing experience of one in a lifetime.
So to sum up, communication with petro was amazing and easy; the service of the driver was exquisite!; We got the best price here than in any other company we've heard of, so great value for money; they are very reliable, and they trusted us very much.

Amazing Safari
We have just returned from a fantastic safari arranged by safari 360. They arranged everything for us and came up with an incredible itinerary. All communication with them prior to our departure was swift, courteous and helpful so when we set off our expectations were high.
Our expectations were met and surpassed. Our guide, Amos met us at the airport. Amos stayed with us throughout. He was our driver, guide and expert animal and bird spotter. He was polite, friendly and we were very happy to spend time with him. Amos showed us animals we didn’t think we had any chance of seeing and tried his hardest to find us rhinos and complete the big 5. Amos made sure our holiday was truly a once in a lifetime incredible experience!
The accommodation arranged was brilliant, most were tented camps and far more luxurious than we were expected. All had en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water, even in the middle of the Serengeti. The food was great, mainly buffet style with plenty of variety and as much as we wanted to eat. Lunches were packed lunch style, but there was plenty of it.
All in all, we had an amazing time and we would recommend the company and particularly Amos. Thank you all for making our experience superb.

It was the trip of out lifetime! 🦁
Hello hello,
I am writing this review from all my heart.
This trip has changed our lives. We couldn't have imagined beforehand what we were letting ourselves in for. After getting around 25 offers from various companies, we finally booked a private safari (6 days) for two with Safari360.
And I don't know how I can put into words what we experienced. We have never experienced so many highlights in such a short time.
We received a beautiful, individual plan from Petro beforehand and what we experienced was even better than we expected. We were picked up on time by our guide Godlove at our lodge and at that moment strangers slowly became friends. In six days we have taken him into our hearts. He has such good expertise and is fully passionate about it. He chooses routes away from the crowded paths and often tries to surprise us with views and rare animals, which he succeeds in doing every time. He speaks perfect English, so I could understand him well even with my basic skills. It was an honor for us to be guided by him. He is probably one of the best guides in this country.
All I can say about the choice of accommodation is: unique. We had a wow moment every evening. These lodges are fantastic and animals walked past our tent even at night. The safari never ended. And the national parks are all so different. Tarangire, Ngorongoro or Serengeti. You can't compare them. They are all unique.
Everything went wonderfully with our safari vehicle (Toyota Landcruiser), it took us reliably and comfortably over 1000 kilometers over the rough roads.
I can recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience Africa. The money is absolutely worth every cent.
Thank you for organizing and carrying out everything so perfectly.
Asanta Sana!

Unforgettable Safari Adventure with Dennis: Perfect Guide, Lifelong Memories
Dennis was an incredible guide during our 5-day-safari. He was always in a great mood, incredibly funny, and truly empathetic in every situation, making sure every second of our trip was perfect. Thanks to him, we saw all the animals we wanted and shared so many laughs along the way. Dennis created unforgettable moments that we will cherish for a lifetime. We felt completely at ease, able to relax and enjoy the safari without a worry, knowing we were in the best hands. By the end of the trip, we felt mentally and physically refreshed and are so grateful to have not only had the perfect guide but also gained a true friend. The accommodations were incredibly comfortable, cozy, beautifully designed, and spotless, allowing us to sleep wonderfully every night.
Thank you, Dennis. Looking forward to the next Safari with you
