outstanding and great experience
5/5

We did the 5 day safari with one day Tarangire, 3 days Serengeti and one day Ngorongoro. I have to say that even 5 stars are not enough here. For this price you can't get a better safari experience. We did the tour with Felix as our guide and he always found the perfect spots to observe the animals, always provided us with very good information about the animals and was always very helpful. And last but not least, we saw the Big 5, thanks to Felix. Really a very good guide.
And the food was provided by Dullah, who is an excellent cook. The food was first class and simply outstanding what delicious food he always prepared for us. Always fresh and delicious.
We always stayed in tents with mattresses and sleeping bags, everything was provided for us and was very clean and fresh.
Can only recommend Wakanda Safari, really excellent service

Incredible experience.
5/5

In 6 days, we saw most of the parks near Arusha. The landscapes are magnificent, especially the Serengeti. We even had the chance to see the Big 5 even though it was starting to be out of season.

Special mention to the staff who made this excursion unforgettable. Andrew our guide was absolutely brilliant. He is funny, he speaks French and he is hot to answer all questions. Don't hesitate to ask for it, it's worth it. Dullah the cook has made magic with next to nothing, and Bartho manages the whole organization with efficiency, good humor and kindness.

I left alone, I came back with lots of friends and lots of photos.
Frankly, I was freaked out to book such a long and cheap tour, but I have to believe that camping is the genius idea for backpackers who don't want to break the bank.

In short, go for it!

The next week ever!
5/5

The most amazing safari tour to go on! I did the 6 day budget safari and it was far better than I had ever imagined. We had Andrew as our guide and you could tell he loved his job and was passionate about the animals. He went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing week and answered all the questions we had. The food was amazing and you definitely won’t be hungry during this safari. Best week of my life and I felt like I was part of a real family on this trip. Thanks guys! You are awesome!

Professional, organised and fun!
5/5

We had a great Safari with Wakanda, we booked the 5 day budget tour to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and we saw more animals than we possibly hoped for or expected, including three rhino! And the landscapes were so beautiful. We are so happy with our experience.

The organisation by the manager Bartho was so great, he personally responded via WhatsApp quickly and friendly and made booking the safari so easy! We felt like we were in great hands. He also came to personally meet us when we arrived in Arusha to brief us.

All the accommodation was clean and comfortable during our safari with very friendly staff. We had three days in budget lodges and one day camping.

The Safari vehicle was spacious, well maintained and comfortable which was important for long rides.

The food from our cook Solomon was excellent. We ate so well and enjoyed all of our meals. They were really delicious and Solomon was very friendly and happy every day! We enjoyed talking with him a lot.

Our guide Moses is a very friendly and sweet guy. He was so great at spotting animals and getting us to the best spots to watch and take pictures which was great! he also stopped anytime we asked and stayed later if we saw something interesting. He respected the park rules at all times which we really liked as we saw some other guides driving off road/ speeding and disturbing the animals but he was very respectful. He answered all of our questions about the animals when we asked. He maybe could have provided a little more information about the animals and landscapes along the way but we saw so many great things that we didn’t mind.

We would recommend Wakanda for a Tanzanian safari!

Thank you!

Perfect what they do
5/5

As they are smaller company, all is much more personal. I got quick answers to all my questions and double checking, they helped booking the flights etc. Our guide and driver Chedi was excellent in finding animals and telling enough and not too much info, so that even our children did not get board from 5 day safari. Our cook Sule made excellent food that even our teenagers ate.

Amazing agency, could not have been better
5/5

We found Wakanda Tours & Safaris on tripadvisor where they were recommended because of their tent safaris. We contacted them directly and Bartho the owner tailored our private tour (Arusha, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro) and adapted it to our travel itinary. We selected a 5 days Safari tour, but instead of a camping Safari we chose a loge and tented lodge safari. We decided to book with Wakanda because we liked their offer and what was included, we also liked that Bartho answered all our questions quickly and we wanted to book with a local agency. We never regretted our choice. The Safari was amazing and such an unforgettable time. We got great service upon arrival until we left for Sansibar. We were picked up at the airport and spent our first night in Arusha in a nice hotel. In the afternoon we visited Arusha. The next day we were picked up by our guide Elia . Elia is a very nice and funny guy. He is extremly knowledgable about animals and the nature. He was extremly attentive and tried to fulfill all our wishes. We saw everything we could wish for. Also we learned a lot about the people in Tanzania and the culture. Elia is also a very good driver, which helped us a lot when the street at the Ngorongoro carter was nearly blocked, muddy and slippery.
Wakanda encourages the logdges to cook fresh food for the lunch. We took them out in pots which Elia brought with him from Arusha. The food was always very good and due to the pots we did not have any waste.
We had unforgettable days with Elia.
In general, we were impressed about the very good service we experienced in every lodge and the good food. Also the cleanliness about of bathrooms in Tanzania in general.
At the end of the Safari Bartho took the time to meet us and ask us about our Safari experience.
Our experience could not have been better. One day we will go back to Tanzania and we will defenitely book again with Wakanda Tours & Safaris.

Best Experience!!!
5/5

We had the absolute best time doing our Safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris.

The entire team is just very helpful and ALWAYS making the biggest effort to make your experience as special and perfect as it can get.

Most likely you will get in touch with Bartho first, when booking the trip. He is the owner of the company and highly professional and helpful with what ever questions or concerns you might have.

The safari itself was just amazing.
The safari jeep is very comfortable (LOVED THE PILLOWS!), we got provided with the BEST FOOD (see the other reviews - it’s all true - varied, fresh, extremely tasty meals 3 times a day), soft drinks, water, beer and wine. We got to see the big 5 and many other incredible animals and nature.
We were like a big family while our 3 days safari, made new friends and left with a light heart full of great memories that will last for a lifetime.

So if you’re trying to decide for one of the many tour operators in Arusha - I highly recommend choosing this one! You won’t regret! They are amazing

How to describe perfect?
5/5

Been dreaming about a safari since i saw david attenborough's documentaries as a child. Would have been happy if i had seen a lion, or a giraffe in the wild. Our amazing guide literally showed us hundreds of elephants, giraffes. And without exagurating, millions of other animals. He even delivered on the big five. Saw no less than 7 different rhino's
