Extraordinary trip with Serengeti Wakanda
The trip with Serengeti Wakanda has been wonderful !! Bartho, the boss, is friendly, responds quickly and always tries to find the best solution.
6 days of Safari is the perfect time to see a great variety of species and find yourself immersed in unique moments! We saw lions hunt, elephants approaching a pool of hippos, a leopard up close with its victim still in the tree! All thanks to our sublime guide Andrew! Always attentive to any movement and once the photos were finished, he explained each animal and several anecdotes!
Beyond that, both the car (comfortable, clean and with binoculars per person), the lodges (comfortable beds and very clean) and the food was second to none.
Our chef Dullah accompanied us throughout our tour and each day surprised us more than the previous one! They also take into account any special conditions, allergies, if you are a vegetarian ...
In conclusion, if you are thinking of doing a safari, do it with Serengeti wakanda and you will live a unique experience!

Friendly, relaxed, customer oriented, professional and fun budget Safari
First of all, Zamo (our Tour Guide and driver) and Denis (our cook) were the BEST!! Among many offers we chose Wakanda because of a friend's recommendation and the included itinerary. We did 3 nights (one in the Fig Tree Lodge, which was very nice! And 2 nights in a tent - everything was provided by Wakanda). The first day we visited Tarangire Nationalpark which was beautiful with many many animals and a awesome landscape. Then we did Serengeti, which was huge and impressive and dry, where we saw many lions and hippos (and many more). And on the last day we saw the Ngorogoro crater, which was amazing as well with so many animals and where we were lucky to see all the big 5 animals. (The others additionally did the lake Manyara but it's the least spectacular one and we were quite happy to do 3 nights). In general we had the feeling that Zamo knew all the National parks very well and the secret spots. Also he was very respectful about the animals (in contrast to other cars who almost bothered the animals sometimes). Zamo explained us a lot, had a good sense of humor and after the four days we got to know him very well. He also told us a lot about Tansania and it's culture and lifestyle! He was just great! And Denis was for sure the best cook you can get! Extremely good food (from meat, to self made bread, fruits, pancakes, lasagne and so on)!! We also got hot meals for lunch AND dinner (in comparison to other groups who often just had a sandwich). And we had more than enough beer and wine. Moreover we were very lucky with our group because the other 4 persons were in our age and on the same vibe as us! It was very funny with them and this made these 4 days also special :)
To summarize: we can highly recommend Wakanda Tours (try to get Zamo and Denis!) but of course it always depends on the guide, on the group and on the luck of which animals you will see. We saw a lion passing right next to our car but we didn't see a hunt for example. And a valuable tip: take warm clothes, it gets very cold!! Thanks a lot to Bartho who organized everything and was always friendly and helpful and to Zamo and Denis, you are the best!! :)

Best safari tours in Serengeti by far!
We were a group of 4 people (2 couples) and chose to do the 5 day safari. Before our trip, everything was clearly and we knew that the organization was going to be good. During our arrival and the safari, we were always greeted by awesome service starting with Bartho (the owner) and then by our guide (Zamo) and chef (Dennis) with whom we spent the most of our time with. The safari was an amazing experience thanks to them as we spotted all the animals we wanted to see and even more as we were lucky to see the big 5. Our guide Zamo was always conscious of the animals and the surroundings, always respecting them and their distance, something we didnt see in other tours. He made sure to give us time to spot animals, gave us relevant information and keep us entertained. He kept the car clean always and had small details which made our experience way better. Dennis cooked always great food that were not too heavy for tourists but always really tasty in flavor (we had prepared meals for lunch while other groups had sandwiches), he was always super attentive and in a great mood. Overall our experience was one of a kind thanks to them, definitely great value for the price. We could see other tours which had similar offerings, didnt have small details as us. I would recommend to anyone who wants to do a safari, for any budget as they will be able to accommodate to your needs.

A perfect Safari with a lot of highlights
We were really happy with the safari together with Malisa, Dullah and also the organisator Bartho. Prior to the tour, Bartho was able to answer all our questions very fast, which made it very simple to prepare for the trip.
Arriving in Arusha, we got to know our guide Malisa, who was open-minded, friendly and flexible regarding all our desires. With his car, he could drive us close to a lot of animals, in a very comfortable way, knowing the most interesting places to get to see the big animals. Also, there was a lot of time to talk and laugh during conversations we will not forget.
The accomodations were fine since we were prepared for camping and the food during the whole trip was incredibly good thanks to the cook Dulah. He prepared not only nice lunch but also a three course menu in the evening. We were never hungry on the trip and always looking forward to the next dinner.
All together we would highly recommend this company to everyone ans didn’t miss anything.
In our case we were a group with ages reaching from 24 to 60+, which was totally fine for us. However we can imagine that others might have problems with that. Therefore we can recommend that groups are formed according to age.
All the best to Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris!

Memorable safari and beautiful people
Gonna start by saying that I can’t possibly imagine how this experience could have gone better - outstanding organization, communication, knowledge of…everything! (fauna, landscapes, history, culture etc.), great accommodation, exquisite food and, to top it all off, beautiful and kind people that took care of us every minute of the 8 days we were there.
I traveled with my sister and we were both equally impressed by this company which is truly a dream team:
The owner - In organizing the tour, Bartho was super responsive, patient and flexible with our multiple requests and last-minute changes to the route and accommodations (he even got us a WiFi modem in the car, just cause we’re weird tourist who can’t function without internet).
The guide - our guide was Malisa, which in all honesty is the best guide, person and presence we could have hoped for. Super friendly, funny, kind and amenable to all our desires (desires and needs that spanned 24-60+ age range, so pretty diverse ), but most importantly very knowledgeable and able to spot literally every animal. Seriously, the man has eagle eyes and some sort of superhuman skills, cause every time we wished for a particular animal, Malisa would take just minutes until finding us exactly what we wished for. Malisa also has profound knowledge and respect for nature/animals and the Tanzanian culture/tribes, which to us was quite impressive.
The chef – Dullah could probably move on and cook for a fancy restaurant - for future tourists of Serengeti Wakanda, I hope this doesn’t happen. All jokes aside, Dullah is a fantastic chef. The food he prepared was diverse, but equally tasty on any given day. The ingredients were fresh and he always provided options for all type of dietary preferences (regular/vegan/vegetarian/). Just as a bonus, Dullah is also a super nice and funny person.
Additional to the above, everything we needed was included: wine, beer, tents, sleeping bags, binoculars and the accommodations were exactly what we expected - the pictures Bartho sent us were 100% accurate.
All in all, we were quite impressed with Bartho and his team and definitely a fan and a promotor from hereon. Thank you so much for taking care of us and making this experience a unique and memorable one!

A once-in-a-lifetime safari!
My husband and I went on safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris in August 2021. We had to postpone our honeymoon due to the pandemic and after multiple delayed trips with other companies, we contacted this safari. Bartho replied to our email in a very timely manner. Although we had plenty of questions, Bartho answered each and every email very quickly and thoroughly. Every detail was communicated with us from the airport transportation, Covid testing, and even the change in our itinerary in order to give our tour the best opportunity to see the "Great Migration". We felt completely safe and comfortable the entire trip.
Our tour guide and chef were PHENOMENAL!!
Every meal was a dining delight. Some meals were at our campsites while others were picnic style but the quality of the meals was fantastic. While other groups ate packaged deli sandwiches and chips, we had chicken and rice, salad, vegetables, and a dessert!
Our tour guide Aaron, was absolutely amazing! Our tour saw the Big Five and many more animals that we weren't expecting. We saw everything we dreamed of and MORE! Safari guides seem to work together to make everyone's experience great and all that teamwork pays off. Aaron did a great job of providing educational facts about the animals and pointing out things to look for as we searched for animals with the provided binoculars. We also had a great viewing point of the "Great Migration" thanks to our guide's quick maneuvering. He stopped at animals long enough for picture taking and stopped if he heard a few camera shutters to make sure everyone got pictures of their safari.
Overall, I cannot say enough good things about Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris! We would go on another tour with this team again in a heartbeat. If you are looking for an amazing adventure, contact them for your once-in-a-lifetime safari!

Unforgettable 4 days safari !
We chose to do a 4 days safari to see all 3 natural parcs (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro), and we trusted Wakanda Serengeti to organize it for us. By far the best decision we made !!
Let me tell you why:
Bartho, your first contact and the organizator, understood our wants and needs and offered us the best solution, always with a smile :)
We had the best time with our guide Andrew and our cook Dullah ! Andrew speaks great French and is an awesome guide ! Funny, charming, nice and most importantly he spots animals anywhere and makes sure we have time to admire everything.
Dullah is an amazing cook, very nice and really accommodating (he made sure to prepare some food especially for our vegetarian friend).
We slept in tents inside the parcs, very comfortably and safely. Even though we were on the road all day, our meals were always warm and beautiful. Table cloth, cutlery, several dishes, it was a feast everyday in the middle of dirt road and breathtaking landscapes !
As for the landscapes and the animals, there are no words …
Just an overall incredible experience

Amazing Trip! The cook was a hero, so delicous! It‘s good organized! I had a really nice time!Asante
The tour was profitable compared to the service and the price. We were camping, all camping things are organized by the crew. The guide was very funny and always in a good mood and he had a lot of knowledge about safari topics. The cook served us several courses every day, fresh homemade bread rolls were standard with almost every dish. Simply a great experience!

he is very polite and explains the tour very well, which really took place.
It was a wonderful safari that I will not forget. The guide was super friendly and helpful and was able to explain every detail about the animals and plants to us .We saw all animals except the leopard. He tried very hard and was very patient
We had a great cook, while other travelers had french fries and chicken, we could enjoy a three-course menu that was always so delicious and that you needed after such a day trip. he was a pleasure. it was a great team, thanks for the great time, we'll be back.
