Unforgettable days
Une super experience avec un guide génial.
Cerise sur le gateau, il parle super bien français. Le decor est grandiose mais c'est la nature et voir des lions, des rhinocéros ne peuvent etre certifié et Ztefa a tous donné pour cela. Un grand merci pour ces deux inoubliables journées.
A great experience with an awesome guide. The icing on the cake (feench expressions) is that he speaks French really well. The decor is amazong but it is nature and seeing lions and rhinoceroses cannot be certified and Ztefa gave everything for that. A big thank you for these two unforgettable days

7 days Wakanda couple Safari
My wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a unique experience for our honeymoon: a safari in Tanzania!
After getting about 20 quotes, we found a good value for money with Wakanda.
With Beatrice's help, we were able to arrange all activities according to our needs, including transportation to and from Kilimanjaro airport.
In Arusha we found Zepha waiting for us, our guide who joined us for all seven days Safari.
We had a very good time with him, an experienced guide with more than 10 years of experience, and Italian speaker.
Zepha helped make the experience unique and unforgettable, explaining interesting facts about the animals, taking us to the boundless trails of Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and Ngorongoro national parks, and reaching out to other guides to show us all the animals on our wish list.
We appreciated Zepha's attention to detail, such as cleaning the car inside and out every time it got dirty from dust and mud and choosing viable routes based on how muddy the roads were.
We also appreciated the Wakanda logo gifts given to us upon arrival.
Other positive notes were the wi-fi available in the car, drinks always available, and lunch with cooked food (not the classic lunch box).
10/10 experience!
Even though there was no good weather, having just one day of sunshine, we were able to see lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, giraffes, zebras, rhinos, and so many other animals!
ASANTE SANA!

The Perfect Trip!
—Summary—
The Safari = 5 stars (thanks to our amazing guide, Bashiri!)
Booking, food & accommodation = 5 stars (thanks to Ushma and all of the lodging staff!)
Value = 5 stars
—Why Wakanda—
1) Value for money - If you are considering more expensive, seemingly more luxurious options: rest assured you will not be missing out on any luxuries by choosing Wakanda. If you are considering a cheaper option - spend the extra few dollars to ensure you leave Tanzania having had the best trip of your life.
2) Guide - your safari guide will be central to everything you experience while on the safari and having a good guide is the difference between seeing 5 lions vs 50 lions, sharing fun anecdotes vs sitting in awkward silence, feeling comfortable and welcome vs feeling anxious, etc. With Serengeti Wakanda, you will have an excellent guide.
3) Booking process - the sample itineraries are fantastic starting points, but you will want to be closely involved in choosing the final version. Doing so requires helpful and communicative staff who are happy to answer questions and tweak your itinerary until you think it’s ready - with Wakanda, you will certainly have this.
-Details-
—Booking—
Ushma was very helpful and patient in helping us customize the itinerary and was always quick to respond to any questions we had leading up to the trip. We received our first itinerary/quote right away and after a couple weeks of emailing and maybe 6 or so different itineraries, we settled on something that felt perfect.
—Our Guide—
From the start, Bashiri was friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable, teaching us about the local history and culture as we drove from Arusha to Tarangire. It seems obvious now, but having never done a safari, I did not fully appreciate how crucial your guide is in shaping your experience - choosing the right unmarked paths to wander down in the parks, spotting animals that you would never notice on your own, teaching you about the animals and landscape, and just generally making you feel welcome and comfortable in a new place. In all of these regards and more, we could not have asked for a better guide than Bashiri.
The other guides we met from Wakanda at the lodges and lunch sites all seemed great as well - Mandela was always very kind and seemed to have a great sense of humor.
—The Safari—
Our route, over 6 days: Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater.
By the end, we had seen all of the famous big 5 and so much more. And we saw them all so up close, within a couple of meters! Except for the notoriously shy rhinos of Ngorongoro Crater, who we watched from a distance through our binoculars.
Each of the parks was unique and had something the others didn’t, be it the landscape or a certain species of animals. For me, nothing tops the beauty of the endless Serengeti plains, though - Bashiri took us to a remote part of the park where you could look in every direction and scarcely see another jeep roaming around. There, we came across a massive herd of zebras and got to watch them perform their “dust baths”, shortly followed by a close encounter with a solo male elephant.
—The Accommodation (and food)—
Each night was really good and 6/8 nights were what I would classify as luxurious by any standard. The other 2 nights were certainly luxurious by ‘camping’ standards - I highly recommend staying in the migration camps for a night or two, where it feels like you’re really in the wild and can hear lions roaring at night, which was admittedly a terrifying experience at the time but is now a great memory.
Special shoutout to the Signature Serengeti luxury ‘campsite’ - the staff were remarkably friendly and fun, the room we had was the nicest room i’ve ever had anywhere, and it is located right in the middle of one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world.
Food: i have never eaten so well in my life over the course of a week.

Unforgettable adventures with exceptional service and breathtaking wildlife encounters, big 5!
Our experience was exceptional. From the initial communication with Ushma to the execution of the tour, everything was seamless. Our guide, Anderson, ensured every detail was taken care of, his experience and expertise made the difference! The reliability and professionalism of the company made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. The tour itself was a highlight, offering unforgettable wildlife encounters (the Big Five!), scenes of big cats hunting and breathtaking landscapes. We highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris for an unforgettable adventure in Tanzania. Merci beaucoup!

Best experience of our lives
My wife and I had an incredible experience with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. We are from Brazil and went on a 5 day safari in Tanzania as part of our honeymoon, and everything was perfect and well-organized. It was one of the best experiencies of our lives! Special thanks to our guide Andrew, who was very experienced, able to spot animals from afar that no one else could, and had so much knowledge to share! Andrew was always attentive and did his best to ensure we had the best experience possible.

Top tourguide, Top car, Great accommodation, Fantastic Wildlife
We had the most wonderful experience with Wakanda Tours.
We found them over the Internet, after a friend told us we should go with a pure Tanzanian company, so all the money we spend stay in the country.
It started with a communication by email and WhatsApp. Our contact was Goodluck. Our Safari was during the calving Season of the wilderbeast and Zebras. The seven days tour started in the Tanguire national park followed by two days in the Serengeti national Park, then two days Ndutu National Park and finally as cherry on the top the Ngoro Ngoro crater.
Our guide was Andrew, he picked us up at the hotel in Arusha with a brand new Toyota Land Cruiser, we were the first guests using this vehicle. Andrew is a very kind English and French speaking guide. He is Masai heritage and works as a guide since 11 years.
We first thought we were lucky, because we saw so many animals starting with lions, Elephants, lions again, hundred thousands of wilder beasts and Zebras which gathered in the Serengeti for their great migration.
We saw cheetah sitting on a stone, ready to chase the pray. We saw two leopards sleeping in the trees. As the days went by, We realized it was all thanks to Andrew and his knowledge and instinct that gave us this great experience. Andrew is also a very skilled driver, we were never scared and he is also a mechanic, who helped Other cars which had a breakdown. The accommodation in the camps were all great clean and safe. The food was lovely.
Thank you Wakanda thank you Andrew. Thank you Goodluck for making this happen. If you book Wakanda Tours and Safaris, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing journey with Wakanda！
Thank you very much to our guide Edward, who took us to see lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, monkeys, wildebeests, zebras and many birds! We gained a lot from this safari trip. He is also a very careful guide. He would clean our car every day. No matter how muddy the road was, we always got in the car clean. We received gifts from him at the beginning and end, which made us very happy! When dining in the wild, he would also decorate the dining environment with a sense of ceremony, and even provide red wine🍷 It was great! The hotel we stayed in was also very good, and the plan they provided was also very cost-effective. We were very comfortable throughout the trip. I hope the travel agency's business will get better and better!

Reliable Top Safari Tour Operators
Fantastic experience with Wakanda Safari. Everything from the beginning of the booking and throughout the safari was five star ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Our guide Mr Andersson provided a high level of knowledge and we truly felt warmly welcomed to Serengeti and the Wakanda Family.
This was our first safari in Tanzania 🇹🇿, (done many throughout the years south of Victoria Falls), and we truly enjoyed it, especially Serengeti. Not sure about Ngorongoro because of its large number of cars in and around the crater.
But overall five star. Accommodation fantastic and staff as well. Choose Wakanda.

professional, humble and amazing safari tours provider
We had a 5-day safari tour in Tanzania with Serengeti Wakanda Tours on January 26-30, 2025. We had Eli Kano as our tour guide. Throughout those 5 days, every moment was precious, enjoyable, and amazing. We saw a variety of birds, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, elephants, lions, rhinos, hippos, hyenas, zebras, buffalos, flamingos, and even the wildebeest migration right in front of our car. We truly had exciting game drives with Eli Kano in Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, Lake Ndutu, and Ngorongoro Crater.
Personally, one unforgettable experience was having lunch in the wild, under a large acacia tree by the shores of Lake Masek, with the car’s hood serving as our table. It was a fun yet tense lunch because there were so many animals around us.
Our tour guide, Eli, is not just our guide but also our buddy and brother. We had so many conversations about everything, singing together and we learned a lot from him. My friend Cindy and I would get a little annoyed when he would ask us tricky questions or quizzes, but we’ll definitely miss those moments.
Thank you, Eli Kano, for all the great and amazing moments during our first visit to Africa, all the way from Jakarta, Indonesia. We are so happy to have had you as our guide.
Ah, throughout the trip, we never had to worry about food because Chef Dullah provided everything. His food is best and his presentations before meals were amazing. Thank you, Chef Dullah, you’re the best!
We also want to thank Grace Muhale for her patience in communicating with us and helping us prepare for the safari trip before and during our arrival in Africa.
Last but not least, Mr. Barto Fisso, the owner of Serengeti Wakanda Tours, who welcomed us, briefed us, and reassured us that the safari would be amazing on the night before our trip.
Thank you, Serengeti Wakanda. It was the best decision to go on safari with you. Wakanda Forever, Wakanda Milele ❤️
