1 day safari to Nyerere park
It was a unique short but very intense experience .. we had a jeep all to ourselves with two fantastic guides who allowed us to see many animals in their natural habitat (lions, elephants, wildebeests, giraffes, monkeys, zebras ecc)

An amazing experience without a the tiniest bit of doubt!
Our safari at Mikumi National Park was an amazing experience! We had a big time together with our guide Katuku.
Highly recommended tour, definitely cannot go wrong with that!

They provided us with and outstanding experience!
We initially booked a 12 day southern circuit (Nyerere, Mikumi, and Ruaha) safari through Luitour and then modified the trip to include an extra 4 days of the northern circuit (Tarangire, Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater). We modified it again to add a balloon ride in the Serengeti. Ibrahim was on top of everything and we could not have been happier with our guide, Khalifa, the hotels/camps, the safaris, and the additional activities. We chose the southern circuit for a chance to see the wild dogs (we didn’t) and to get away from the hundreds of vehicles that crowd the northern parks. It felt a lot more authentic and the experience was fantastic. Each park has their specialty and I have a hard time deciding which one I liked the best, but I’m already thinking about returning (again!). We really enjoyed the visit to the Masai village outside of Mikumi and I don’t think I would have said the same thing if we had done it in the north. The pilars of Isimila were outstanding and I highly encourage a visit to the rock art north of Dodoma if you have a chance. This is a UNESCO experience.
The northern circuit was added because two of the three of us had never been to the Serengeti and the Crater, so we decided to brave the crowds and the dust and add that to our trip. And yes, it’s definitely worth it. Because there are so many vehicles, some of the more difficult animals to see are more easily spotted and that information is shared. But it also means you can have 20+ vehicles jockeying for position to see the desired animal. The Crater is special and one of few places to see the black rhino (we saw a mother and baby at the last moment before we left).
We wore our lucky underwear and saw over 74 lions, 9 cheetahs, 2 leopards, 1 serval, 2 black rhinos, hyenas, and everything else (but wild dogs, not complaining). We had lions on a kill, cubs, and a little bit of unsuccessful hunting. We saw a cheetah with 5 young cubs. Khalifa made sure that we all got quality time with whatever interested us as individuals or as a group. As a result, we had some amazing experiences. The vehicle is roomy and comfortable with optimal viewing for everyone. It is also maintained regularly, but also be aware the roads are bumpy and things can happen. We had flat tire, but it took 12 minutes to change. Khalifa was an excellent spotter, driver, and a joy to be around. The lodging was also very comfortable. If you haven’t done a tent lodge, it is like very nice glamping. The tents have real and comfortable beds, bathrooms attached with running water, and a chance to hear the lions in the camp at night. The food was very good, a mix of Western and African food. Most places have wifi, but it usually only works near the reception and restaurant, but you are on vacation, so put your phones and tablets away. Find some lucky underwear and book!

Great tour operator and the best guide!
At Mikumi National Park, we had an amazing experience!!
Everything went well and our guide did everything in his power so that we could see all the animals in the park!!
We also appreciate the help that both Ibrahim (from office in Arusha) and Katuku (our guide) gave us to recover our luggage. Because
when we arrived to the airport, our luggage was not there and we had to leave immediately for the Mikumi National Park without it.
They coordinated everything and we recovered it at the next destination. Asante sana!
We highly recommend this agency.

Very efficient, flexible and reliable
We went with Luitours for 2 weeks in August 2023 around the Tanzanian National Park southern route (Mikumi, Ruaha and Nyerere) plus a few days at Kilwa by the Indian Ocean. We were picked up at Dar airport, dropped back there and were looked after all the time in between. Luitours was very flexible and helpful in amending their standard package to suit our requirements. Everything worked very well, and the trip substantially exceeded our expectations. Our driver/guide Khalifa (who was with us all the time) was great had an astonishing ability to spot animals and birds and was very informative about not only fauna but also all things Tanzanian. The game park lodges were of a perfectly adequate standard and the one just outside Ruaha NP had one of the best views I have ever seen. We are very happy to recommend Luitours for a Tanzanian safari in the future. Philip

Luitours Safari organized the tour very well. The process was very well coordinated.
Just great!
We had booked a 4 -day safari. Our leader Okuli was very nice and courteous, and a friendship was created in the 4 days. We had a lot of fun looking for the car ride. He explained a lot about the country and its people and responded to all of our wishes.
The accommodations were just awesome.
An unforgettable safari, well organized. We will be back.

Excellent organisation and great guide (Katuku)!
This tour is amazing, very well organised and both Ibrahim and Katuku (our guide) have been great! Ibrahim was always very responsive and helpful while organising the tour and made sure that we were happy with everything. During the tour, Katuku has been fantastic, he’s very knowledgeable of all the animals, he was very committed at making sure we had an amazing safari by carefully searching for animals. He also made us feel very safe every step of the trip. Well done guys and would definitely recommend! Asante!
