Best Tour Guide Ever!
5/5

I’m so glad I booked a tour with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. Andrew was my guide and he was absolutely amazing! March is the beginning of the rainy season in east Africa, but thankfully the weather was perfect. Andrew has a ton of experience getting around all the parks as efficiently as possible and has an amazing eye for spotting animals hiding in the distance. 80% of the time he would spot an animal with his bare eyes, while I was there struggling to spot it with binoculars. After spotting animals, he is so skilled with his knowledge of the roads that he was often able to get us very close to the animals for amazing shots. If there was a road that led to a closer view, Andrew knew how to get there…. he used his “nature GPS” and it was spot on each time. The chef was Dullah and we couldn’t have asked for a better cook. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all included - freshly cooked and amazing. Dinner included an appetizer, entree, and dessert, all freshly cooked. The tour organizer and owner, Bartho, was a great communicator and extremely helpful. All staff are so friendly and enjoyable. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours with Andrew and Dullah.

Wakanda Forever! Wakanda for Life!
5/5

In March 2022 we did a Safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. We went for 5 days and in this time we visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Norongoro National Park. In general our communication and the planning with the company was very easy and we were more than happy. Our requests were answered really fast and even a little change for the beginning of the tour was possible.
We went with our guide Andrew and the cook Dulla. These 5 days weren't just a Safari with guides and clients, we became a really good team and good friends. Andrew is one of the kindest persons we know, he takes care about everything and if there are any questions or problems, he is always there with solutions. Because of his experience we have seen so many spectacular things. Everytime something happened we were the first group to be there and sometimes guides from other companies followed him. The last night in Serengeti he told us that he has heard lions and just 10 minutes later we drove through some little roads and saw more than 10 BABY LIONS. We saw all Big 5 and learnt so much from him. All the discussions at dinner were so interesting, because he has so many experiences and so many stories and facts to tell.
Dulla made sure that we always had enough energy to experience all these moments. While other groups had lunch boxes, we got big menus and even vegan food was no problem. He took care of all of our desires, so we had the best food ever. They were so attentive, that those nights we watched the sunset, they brought us popcorn and drinks. We couldn't be more happy about our Safari! The vibe in the company was very kind and comfortable and communication with chef, guide and cook was really easy and flexible.

To have a good safari, everybody needs an Andrew and Dulla by ones side! Thank you for those incredible days! We are already missing the animals, food, discussions and especially the time together!

Wakanda Forever! Wakanda for Life!

Everything you could wish for and more
5/5

Our 6 day budget safari with Serengeti Wakanda was incredible, a real highlight of our time in Tanzania. Bartho, the owner of the company, is helpful and good to communicate with. We saw a fantastic and exciting range of animals, including the big 5, most of them so close, there was no need for binoculars. Our tour guide Andrew was extremely talented in spotting animals, very knowledgeable about the animals, parks and Masaii and a great story teller - I can't recommend him highly enough. The same goes for the chef, Dullah - meals were prepared fresh. Breakfast, lunch and dinner every day were without fail, delicious. The lodges and campsites were comfortable and the lodges had wifi. In the vehicle, there is water, beer, soft drinks and wine available for whenever you fancy it and good binoculars are provided for each traveller.

Easy 5-star review for Wakanda!
5/5

Easy 5-star review. 6-day budget safari tour with Wakanda! Andrew (tour guide) was great. Very knowledgeable and experienced. Saw all of the big five and more. Andrew knew the parks very well. We were all very happy with our experience! The food was incredible too. Freshly made and 3 meals a day. Credit to the cook - Dullah. Everything was organised and was a very enjoyable experience for us all involved. Bartho, the company owner made sure everything was in place. Can't thank Serengeti wakanda enough - unforgettable! Would highly recommend 100%. Will definitely be telling friends and family who visit Tanzania to go with Wakanda for the safari.

Unforgettable safari experience!
5/5

Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris was a great choice and definitely the safari experience of a lifetime!
I am grateful to Bartho, the owner of the company, that he was able to put together a group for me, since I was traveling alone, for exactly the days that I requested.
Our guide and driver, Prays, showed us an incredible amount of wild animals and brought us to the right place in minutes. Thanks to him, many breathtaking moments were captured on our cameras and eyes.
Dula, our chef, prepared delicious breakfasts/lunches/dinners for us.
Safari is one of the best things that happened to me, because seeing this wild world of animals with my own eyes and becoming a part of this world while camping is an unforgettable emotion and experience!
It was during the safari that I received the news that Russia had started a war against Ukraine and it was very hard to enjoy the trip while my heart was breaking from pain for my native country and fear for relatives and friends.
I am very grateful for all the support given to me and the kindness of our entire team with whom I shared these 4 days of incredible safari. I appreciate it very much!

The best tour agency
5/5

I was recommended this agency through some people I met in Zanzibar. I set up my tour with Bartho and he helped me organizing the tour to get the best experience for 2 days. I did the Tarangire national park as well as Ngorongoro. Andrew was the guide in Ngorongoro and the best guide ever, he takes the time to look for the animals and I don't know how he can spot the animals from miles away, it's extraordinary just to be in the presence and see his talent. They also have a great cook who goes on the tours with you and the meals are delicious. Overall I really loved my experience and I wish I would had extended it to 5 days instead of 2.

Bartho (the owner) was recommended to us by a friend and since he was so helpful with our questions we chose him and his company among the vast amount of tour operators in Arusha. Oh boy we didn’t regret it.

Everything from the start until the too soon ending was amazing. The team we met was just the best.
Bartho helped us with everything the whole time, our driver Noel spotted like a champ and Dula (probably spelled him wrong, sry) our cook seemed to be some kind of magician. The entire team is just incredibly helpful and is striving to make your experience as perfect as it can be.

Apart from the great team our safari was amazing. The jeep was in a very good condition and i’d say quite comfy - what kinda suprised us. We even got pillows :) Thanks to Noel we saw the Big 5 and loads of other amazing animals and nature. He stopped and waited whenever we wanted to take pictures for as long as it took to get the best shots. The team even helped us out after the safari ended when we had problems with our flight.

Another big difference to other operators was the food. What Dula managed to cook 3 times a day with basic eqiupment is undescribable. We got 3 course meals every day which were always an absolute delight. On top of it water, soft drinks, beer and wine. We could see what others had for food/drinks and let me tell you it looked pathetic to what we had.

We had a blast with our safari and the team, so get in touch with them and enjoy an amazing experience!

5/5

Our safari with wakanda tours was such an amazing experience!! We had a lot of fun with our sympatic tour guide Andrew who knew a lot about the animals and could answer every question we asked. On top of that he was a good driver and could manage all the difficult tracks in the national parks.
We slept 2 nights in beautiful lodges and even the 1 night we spent in the tent was very comfortable because of the good and warm equipment wakanda tours offered! Three times a day we got big portions of very delicious and various food!
We highly recommend booking your safari with bartho and his company wakanda tours! :)

Best safari ever!
5/5

Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safari has brought us one of the best experiences in our lives. The parks, the places we stayed and the food were just perfect. We can’t imagine this safari without Andrew. He is passionate about this job and you can feel it since the beginning. He also has a great knowledge of animals. He was always looking for the best place or shot for our pictures just for us to be happy. We really felt as a family those 5 days.
Also a mention for Dulla’s food. And to Bartho who was always ready to help us with any issue we had.
Thank you all for this tour. We will definitely recommend it.

Great value for money!
5/5

Every step of the way was wonderful with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris: from reaching out for the first time to make reservations, discuss options, adjusting the program to our wishes, reliable pick-up transfers, lodging, the tents, bedding, safari vehicle, managing expectations, everything! But most of all when you are in Tanzania, your experience is mostly influenced by the people you meet: so wonderful! Special shoutout to our truly great tourguide and ranger ANDREW together with chef Dula: you made our trip the best. THANKS!!
