Dreams comes True
5/5

We are going to tell you about the trip of our dreams. I wish I could describe what I experienced. Too many emotions in a week is something impossible to describe. Dream come true.

• Guide: Phelix touched us, he has a knowledge of nature and animals. BRUTAL! It is a machine we saw everything we asked for. Super attentive, any doubt was resolved perfectly for us, a very communicative person and she showed her love for her work. She really made us this unforgettable experience.

•Food: Sully touched us. The stomach engineer, he was in charge of feeding us every day and everything was SPECTACULAR! Most of the tours offer us a little box with prepared food, we ate everything freshly made. All fresh. Some potatoes that this man prepared for us with fish (my boyfriend doesn't eat fish) he ate it and you can get an idea of how good his food is. The fresh bread every day made by him. Conclusion meal 100

Andrew was fantastic. So knowledgable, helpful and a great spotter.
5/5

They were great. Andrew was an amazing guide and Dula was a fantastic chef. Neither of them left anything to be desired. Couldn’t recommend enough. Great tour, great food and great value for money. Accommodation was comfortable, wifi in the car and we ate better than anyone else we saw. I thought for a lower price I would settle for a lesser service but this was not the case at all - great experience!

Our guide was phenomenal and absolutely made the tour a million times more enjoyable for us all.
5/5

The tour completely exceeded our expectations. Our guide Andrew was insanely experienced and knowledgeable and did everything to make sure we enjoyed our time. The trip would not have been the same without him. Our cook Dula was phenomenal. Every meal he made left us stuffed but still wanting to eat more.

Exceptional and local
5/5

We travel a lot all over the World and we have just returned from safari with Wakanda and it’s one of the best experiences we have had travelling.

Wakanda are a local company, employing local people with a pride, dignity and care that is a pleasure to be around.

Bartho is ultra organised and makes sure everything runs smoothly.

Our guide Felix was so knowledgable, eloquent and helpful. He’s also a great guy with a big heart and love of his great country. He guided us through this real adventure with great skill and tact. Because of him we were able to see so much and really engage with this beautiful experience.

Sully our chef treated us to the best food and never left us wanting. Delicious hot food and even baking his own delicious bread for each meal. Other companies had lunch boxes with bland offerings. Sully prepared us hot, tasty and satisfying meals with variety and veggie options. From start to finish we relished meal times. As with Bartho and Felix he is also a wonderful character and by the end it felt like one big family.

If you’re looking at safari here then don’t miss out on a Wakanda experience. It’s great value but the standard is exceptional.

We will definitely return and will definitely book with Wakanda.

Thank you guys for making it so special.

Unforgettable Experience, 5 stars
5/5

I booked through Wakanda after my original booking through another operator was cancelled at short notice - and am I glad that happened! The entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. Bartho was always on hand to answer my questions and always responded very quickly which made the admin side of things very hassle free.

As for the safari itself, Lewis was an incredible guide: friendly, patient and over 20 years experience which meant he knew exactly where to put the jeep to get us the best shots of the animals. We saw the Big 5 and often were close enough to them to touch if we'd wanted. The choice of camping was also excellent as it really felt wild and many mornings we'd wake up to animals around our tents which was special.

Finally, we had an amazing cook in Doola who literally was up cooking in the middle of the night to provide us with delicious meals at all times. His bread may be the best I've ever tasted and that's no small feat given how it is made (you'll have to book to find out!)

Overall, an undoubted 5 star experience and one of the best tours I've had travelling. So don't look any further, in Wakanda you are in extremely safe hands.

Amazing!!!
5/5

This was by far the best trip/experience I’ve ever had. From the moment we booked, I started calling around because I prefer to talk to a live person. Bartho picked up the phone and explained everything thoroughly. Every question or concern I had from there on was answered in a timely manner. I’ve been to a few countries and when I tell you I felt welcomed, I truly mean it. We got there a few days before our safari, we got picked up by Ben, we asked Ben about what we could do for the couple of days before our safari and he made sure we knew what to do, where to go, and how to feel safe. On safari day we met our driver/guide,Felix. Felix was amazing, such a humble and amazing soul. He was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and safari and didn’t mind answering any questions. We saw the big 5 and some. He had a great sense of humor and we never had a dull moment. Shortly after we met our chef, Sulejmani, he was great. Sule’s food was delicious and he even accommodated a few things I asked for. I will never forget Sule, Felix and the staff coming out with a freshly baked birthday cake and singing happy birthday to me, a birthday I will never forget. On the last day thankfully, Bartho booked our transport to the airport. We honestly had the best time and experience and I’m happy I picked Serengeti Wakanda tours.

Amazing trip made by an amazing guide
5/5

We had an incredible adventure that is difficult to capture in words. Firstly our guide, Andrew, was not only a fountain of knowledge on wildlife and local culture (being half Masai himself) he was also very kind, humble and funny sharing many great stories with us over a cold beer. He went the extra mile to make sure we had the best experience and we left with the feeling we’d made a good friend. Secondly, we had the chef par excellence, Abdullah, who made sure we had delicious food every day and were the envy of other tour groups.

Coming from South Africa I’ve done a lot of safaris but this was extra special, and I’d recommend it to anyone that wants an adventure with kind, knowledgable and thoughtful guides. You won’t regret going worth Wakanda that’s for sure!

A wonderful experience from a fantastically well run company!
5/5

Our safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours was totally unforgettable. From the moment of booking Bartho was easy to get in touch with and extremely helpful, answering all our questions well and quickly. Our guide Louis was lovely and was excellent at finding the animals - we can't believe how much we were able to see. The food is also brilliant and we were very impressed with how much delicious food our chef Suli could make with the limited camping cooking equipment available! Would 100% recommend this company for an unforgettable experience and fantastic value for money. Thanks a lot Wakanda Tours!

Best guide, food and organisation for a reasonable price. Simply marvelous!
5/5

When it comes to choose a Safari operator it can be a though decission, but choosing Wakanda Seremgeti Tours was definitely the right call. Honestly i dont think it could get any better.

I did with my girlfriend a 6 days group safari along the National Parks of Lake Manyara, Taranguire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. You can do it also private, but i recommend to do it in group, since you can meet new people and its much cheaper. We were six people in the car plus the guide and the cook. As it was the start of the season there was not many people around, so we also happy for that.

Our guide Andrew made our Safari unforgettable. Thanks to his knowledge about animals, great driving skills and sense of humor we had the hell of a time. The cook Dulla prepares every meal with a lot of love and as we compare our food whith the lunch that tourist from other operators where getting, we were definitely happy to choose Wakanda Serengeti Tours. Finally i want to mention Bartho. He replied to every mail inmediately and organised the tour for you in a fantastic manner.

Top Safari operator! I wish i can go again to these magical place :)

Perfect Service, Perfect Organization and Perfect Staff
5/5

The best possible way to discover and enjoy an amazing place. We had a perfect experience all throughout the Safari.

We went to the main national parks and of course Serengueti, I reccomend doing the full 6 day Safari. We saw all kind of animals including the Big 5, we also saw a cheetah hunting, all these thanks to our great and experienced guide. The camp sites, tents and car were all in very good conditions and comfortable. Each park has it uniqueness and Serengueti being the best part.

I highly recommend if you are booking a Safari to ask for Andrew Wilson, he is the best guide in town. Not only he has a great sight, and knows everything about each park, he is also very funny, helpful and passionate about what you get to see and he is looking that his clients get the best possible experience.

In terms of food we ate incredible, every meal was a great surprise, our Chef Dula is a very good cook, and we had delicious food during every day. With Andrew and Dula we laughed a lot and had a good time.

Normally I have some constructive feedback to give in a trip however in this one we had a perfect experience. Definitely go Serengueti Wakanda and ask for Andrew and Dula to be the team to be hosting the Safari.
