Fabulous Safari Tour
We had the pleasure to do the tour with Andrew (guide) and Soudi (cook): 1 day Tarangire, 3 days/2 night in Serengeti and 1 night Ngorongoro.
It was an amazing experience because of Andrew essentially, he knows the parks really well, gave us lots of information about the animals. He is gentle, fluent in both English and French (we are french living in UK). He loves his job and love sharing his passion of animals.
Soudi was also amazing: the food was better than at our hotel and the kids enjoyed everything he did (and they are really difficult with food). He has magic in his fingers...he was able to cook dishes like lasagna in a camping.
Thanks both of you for the amazing experience. Will do it again in a few years so hope it will be with you again.
Take care

Serengeti Wakanda go above and beyond and provide the best tours! Highly recommend!
I’ve had the best time with serengueti wakanda. The experience couldn’t have been better. Originally we had another tour operator tour but after hearing some negative comments on them we decide to change. From the moment we engage with SW they were professional and quick to answer, they provided all the information not only on the tours but also additional info on what to pack, what to expect… I did the Kilimanjaro machame route and the team was amazing the guide, the assistant guide and rest of the team couldn’t have been better! We could tell from day 1 that our guide Daniel was really experienced - which shows how profesional they were! We also did the 5 day safari and it was honestly amazing, we kept comparing our trips to other while at the camp and on the walks and honestly it always seemed like our experience was better than the other around us! You will not be disappointed! If you have any questions about SW/kilimanjaro/safari Feel free to reachout @carlotaortiz

awesome experience of safari
We found Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safari on internet. We had the plasure to book and customize the 6 days safari with bartho. We've been to lake manyara, tarangire, serengeti and Ngorongoro national park. All of these places have been breathtaking.
It was an incredible experience. since the begin till the very end.
Bartho pick up us at airport when we landed and the safari went as planned.
Malissa and Prize were two amazing guide/drivers during the safari.
Hot plates prepared by the chef Idris were also very tastefull.
We had the posssibility to live a beautifull experience thank to them.
Thank you Serengeti Wakanda, if we come back we'll choso you one again for sure.

Just brilliant!
My son and I did the 7-day budget safari and Wakanda were absolutely fantastic throughout the trip. Pre-holiday communication with Bartho via Whatsapp was easy and he always replied very promptly. On arrival, he arranged our airport pick up at 2am and came to see us the next morning to brief us on our trip.
The tour itself was just brilliant and our guide, Hamza, was abslutely fantastic the whole week. He has 13 years experience as a guide and you could really tell. He was so knowledgeable abot the place and the animals, really attentive to all our needs as a group, easy to chat to and great fun to travel with. On top of all this, his attention to detail was incredible, even going so far as to always make sure we had the best angle and teh best light for photos when we stopped to see animals from the jeep!
Along with Hamza, we were joined on our trip by Machete, our chef, who was also absolutely fantastic and another really lovely guy. My 12 year old son is a very fussy eater and Machete noticed this right away from the 1st day and really looked after him, making sure he had something he liked cooked seperately every day, which he really didn't have to do! It was like my son had his own private chef for the week and it meant his biggest worry about the trip didn't become a big deal at all!
The tour locations were all stunning and we also got upgraded a couple of nights to accomodation that was better than was originally planned in the itinerary.
All in all, my son and I both agreed that this was the best trip we've ever taken and a big part of making it so perfect was the team at Wakanda. Bartho, Hamza and Machete, we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for giving us so many wonderful memories of our time in Tanzania.

Amazing!
A safari with Serengeti Wakanda is not just a safari... It's an unforgettable experience, from start to finish: there is no downside. We spent four days roaming the roads of the African savannah, seen heaps of magnificent animals thanks to our patient guide, ate wonderfully thanks to our chef, slept peacefully thanks to Bartho's perfect organization. Book with your eyes closed, and you will remember it all your life!

An everlasting amazing experience
We did the 6-day group Safari (6 people in one truck) and we traveled as a couple.
Everything went very smooth and was well organized and professional. At first we contacted Bartho via email, who is the manager and owner of the company, he sent us a detailed itinerary and the price (which was significantly lower than other companies had to offer). Then we made a small deposit via Revolut and paid the rest at the beginning of the safari in USD in cash directly to Bartho, who came to our hotel.
The next day in the morning our guide (Praise) picked us up in a Toyota Land Cruiser (most companies use this exact model) and our adventure started. Everything went very well during the whole trip and Praise showed us many great places where we came extremely close to the fascinating wildlife (yes, we saw the big five). During the Safari there is a cook also on the truck. Our cooks were Idris and Suleyman who both prepared amazing meals everyday in very simple improvised kitchens.
All in all we can highly recommend this company and would also recommend to our family and friends.
TIPP: If you are also doing the Ngorogoro Crater bring warm clothes, especially if you do the tented Safari. At night time temperatures were around 5°C, the provided sleeping bags were alright but without jackets before and after going to bed we would really have been freezing, since the camp is at around 2300m.

Wakanda delivered a quality experience! Diversity and numbers of animals, settings, local cuisine
This summer we took our grandson on a Wakanda safari in Tanzania to celebrate his graduation from high school. We wanted him to experience the love and wonder for Africa and its people that we had developed during our experiences in Africa. We wanted him to feel the awe at the uniqueness, diversity and magnificence of the wildlife as well as the cultural richness, ingenuity and unpretentiousness of daily life in Africa. Wow, did Wakanda deliver! We selected the budget individual guided 7-day safari tour and we were never disappointed. We were able to communicate effectively with Wakanda from the United States and set up the trip and two days of activity well in advance of our arrival.
We saw the stars of African wild life every day as well as the often overlooked birds and even a serval. There were no staged native dances, no garish banquets of food the locals could never afford or visitations to African experiences that catered solely to US and European visitors. I felt that we experienced Africa rather than visited Africa.
The price point of the tour was fantastic but delivered on all promises. Our guide, Felix, was experienced, reliably on time, knowledgeable, and in tune with a spirit of respect for the environment. He often explained the relevance of our experiences in the development of Tanzania. He made sure our teenager was involved in helping to set up camp and made certain parts of the safari “just for him.” Our cook, or as Sule preferred to be called, our “stomach engineer,” cooked delicious and varied meals that reflected the local cuisine. We are vegetarian but our grandson eats meat; Sule was always able to have both meat and vegetarian dishes. He even made bread for most dinners and breakfasts. We wanted our grandson to get as close to “nature” as possible, so three of the seven days were tent camping with night sounds, shooting stars and wandering cape buffalo and impala nearby. The equipment was all up-to-date and in very good condition. We felt safe the entire time. This expedition lived up to all our expectations. Our grandson said it was a great trip–great food, great experiences, great animal viewing. We absolutely agree! One caveat: if you require all the comforts of home, this trip might not be for you. If, however, you want a genuine and rich experience, go with Wakanda! "You never know what's around the corner!"

Well organization, amazing tour, great tour guide and chef, honesty
We are two girls and did the 6 days safari with two more people. The safari is amazing. It is super well organized and nothing is missed out. Our tour guide Preise is a fantastic driver and takes care of everything. We saw so many animals, saw a great sunrise at a good place he knew and he told us a lot about the different kind of animals. Our chef Ashraf is a great cook and we had everyday so delicious food. We didn't miss anything. We can just recommend the tour, great team and organization. If you have any question just conntect Bartho and he will reply super fast on whatsapp. You will enjoy it. Thanks to all!

Amazing company for the best Safari experience
We booked the 7 day budget Safari Tour and loved everything about it. The communication with Bartho (owner of Serengeti Wakanda Tours) went smooth and easy. But it was the driver Hamza and cook Machete that made this experience unforgettable! Hamza is the most attentive and funny person ever! He always made sure we were at the right spot at the right time, looking for the best position for our pictures! He shared al his knowledge with us and answered all our questions! Every day, 3 times a day, Machete prepared us the best meals. Surprising us with different dishes every day.
We highly recommend travelling with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and if you get to travel with Hamza and Machete, you’re very lucky!!
