Superb experience with great flexibility
Me and my girlfriend Gabriella went with Luitours on a 5 day safari to Ruaha Np. Before the trip we had special requests and Luitours was incredibly flexible in booking with quick answers via mail and excellent service.
We had a very nice and knowledgeable guide, Khalifa, who took care of us all the time and was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, the park and about Tanzania in general. Everything went incredibly smoothly, the service was phenomenal and the price was much better than in many other Safari companies we checked up.
I would warmly recommend Luitours for a fantastic safari in Tanzania.

Top notch. Really great experience.
Our guide Khalifa was so great. He really took pride in his job and wanted to make sure to give us the chance to see all the animals at mikumi. We never felt rushed and always felt comfortable. Great tour.

it was amazing i enjoyed to the fullest everything was perfect and well organized
Great company! Great services
We booked our safari to Tanzania with this company and all the arrangements were made by Ibrahim, our plan was to visit Selous game reserve only but Ibrahim suggest that Selous and Mikumi will be better. We went with his option and our safari was extremely good.
Accommodation in both parks were amazing, except in Selous Africa camp there were no Acs in their rooms.
Our guide Khalifa was very knowledgeable and well familiar with the parks, he knows where to spot animals without even disturbing them. If you plan to visit Tanzania, Luitours and Safaris is your best choice

Did not get what was promised
I dont feel that i got what was promised. I booked a 2-day safari but it was just one day. We were picked up at 6.00 in the morning. It was said the trip would be 4-5 hours but took more than 7. Due to the car breaking down we didnt get to eat breakfast until 10.00. Then 2 hours later they said we should have lunch. That was to soon so we ended up eating at a ”restaurant” in the park. The food here was not good.
The drive in the park in the afternoon was great and we saw all the animals we wanted. Our guide Tony was very good.
We were driven to the acommodations TanSwiss around 18.30. The stay here was ok but when we asked our guide about day-2-plans he said we were just going home. No more safari.
In the booking i was promised ”After breakfast from lodge with the packed lunches enjoy en route game drive in Mikumi National Park before depart to Dar es Salaam in which you will arrive in evening”. This booking promises a second day and writng about lunch like that gives you the impression that it will last a couple of hours.
In the morning the guide made it feel like were going for a drive around the outskirts of the park and would see many animals.
One hour after leaving the hotell were out of the park and on our way home. Super short en route game drive with no packed lunches, just one hour on the big road.
The titel of this trip should not be ”best 2-day Mikumi safari” instead ”4 hour safari with lodge stay”
I am sure that there are other companies that offer safari with better service and that can deliver what they promised. So I would not recommend LuiTours.

Posted on Jan 21, 2019Hello Fia
Thank you for your feedback which we really appreciate. We are sorry that we did not make it clear earlier regarding en route game drive. I truly apologize.
On the last day of the Safari, guide's plan was to take you for en route game drive while departing to Dar es Salaam according to your itinerary, am sure he did so. En route game drive means you will NOT go directly to the park for game drive instead you'll just pass on the park on your way back to Dar es Salaam that means you'll have a chance to see many animals before departing.
I'm very happy to hear that you saw all animals you wished to see on the first day. As well as good accommodation in Tan swiss lodge
As a company, we are very sorry for this misunderstanding and we will continue improving on our services in the coming future.
Best Regards,
Ibrahim

The Best
We booked our safari with Ibrahim. He answered all of our questions patiently and was very accommodating in planning the exact itinerary we needed. We went 5 days safari in Ruaha National Park with our Guide Khalifa, he was very friendly, charming, and obviously very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife in Ruaha NP.
Ruaha Hilltop lodge is the best one. Very delicious food and service. Reasonable beverage prices too.
Overall experience: They made us felt at home in our first time in Africa. This trip far exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend using Luitours and Safaris Safaris for your next trip!

Well-planned safari with great experience
Tour description
We had a great private 5 days Safari in Selous and Mikumi National Park. Ibrahim came to pick us up from the hotel in Dar es Salaam and gave us short brief of our itinerary then heading to Selous with our driver Khalifa. Boat trip to Rufiji River was great experience in our life. Thanks to our guide we even got to see many animals that was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you Ibrahim and your team. We had a great time!

My experience with Luitours and Safaris
When we first contacted Ibrahim we had some ideas on where to go and what to do, and without imposing his opinion, Ibrahim gave us precious advice on where to stay and all lodges were booked by him at a reasonable price, how to prepare for the trip and what experiences to chose taking into account our preferences.
We had amazing 7 days in Northern circuit, and we are so glad we trusted Luitours and Safaris for preparing our itinerary! Every detail was arranged, we fell in love with our guide Nico and there are no words to thank Ibrahim for taking care of all our needs from the very beginning to the days after our trip was over.
The trip was more than my dreams could imagine...luxurious lodging, delicious food, good drinks and wonderful animal viewing. If you go to Southern Tanzania the Ruaha is a must and Ruaha hilltop lodge is the place to stay. This was so much more than I expected and I had high expectations. But it’s been just fantastic. Thanks again Ibrahim and your team.

The Great Tanzanian experience
We went on 6 days private safari featuring Selous game reserve and Mikumi national park with the tour guide Nico.
He knew a lot about animals and we could learn a lot from him. The game drives were super, he knew exactly where to go so we could see the animals from close. He was communicating with the other guides and helps him to locate the animals.
All the lodges we stayed at were nice and well equipped, some were better than others. Both breakfast and dinner were quite good quality. The lunch boxes were so fancy. It was a highly enjoyable safari with a very nice company and I would recommend it without a doubt to anyone going on a Southern Tanzania safari. Thank you Nico and Luitours and Safaris. Hope to see you again!
