Best Safari Ever !!!
5/5

The 6 days group safari I made with wakanda was perfect.
The contact and organisation with the office was very easy with whatsapp. The cook Dullah made every day very good vegetarian and meat food. The guides Bashier and Benny were amazing. They told us a lot about the animals, plants and the story of the land. It was always time to make a stop when you saw something interesting. Both guids speak english very well, Bashier speaks also french and Benny spanish. In this 6 days we saw every animal I want to see expect the big five. Also the other people in the groupe were amazing and we had a lot of fun.
If you want to make a Safari in Tansania, Wakanda Safari should be your first choice.

100% Highly recommended!!
5/5

If you feel overwhelmed because there are so many tour companies and options, especially if this is your first time and you dont have much information, STOP scrolling down and choose this company!!! Highly 100% recommended. I was in your shoes a few months ago and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have selected this company. It is owned by a local, Bartho who is truly amazing. He is not only a genuinely good person but also incredibly knowledgeable. Feel free to ask him anything!

Our drivers, Benjamin and Abshir, our chief Dullah, Such an amazing crew!! OMG I dont even know where to start. They will treat you like a family. They will do anything for you to have a great experience. My trip was amazing. I hope yours too! Tanzania has my heart now <3

Experience of a lifetime: Wakanda tours and Safari go every extramile for their guests!
5/5

I cannot recommend and rate Serengeti Wakanda tours highly enough to express our satisfaction with the 10 days Safari we did with Wakanda. From the initial contact with Bartho we felt in best hands. Everything was very well organized from airport pick-up to drop-off. Everyone with Wakanda goes the extramile to create an experience you’ll never forget.

Our guide, driver, company and friend at the end, Felix, was the most amazing guide we could have wished for. Most knowledgeable and willing to share everything about the country, the way of living, the people and tribes and of course all animals including unbelievable knowledge about birds (as we were interested in that too). You’ll love to spend the dinners with him, too because he is fun as well.

Thanks to Felix, we experienced being in the middle of an elephant group just us, seeing a lion family and baby’s playing before ten other cars arrived. But he gave us the chance to see a leopard up close with other cars as it so hard to see it. The best combination, we could have asked for. He didn’t mind about driving far distances to create an experience of a lifetime for us. We saw the big 5 although it was nearly impossible to see a Rhino up close during that time. Of course, you need to be lucky too but it felt, that Felix knew exactly where to go to.

In my opinion, Wakanda differs from other bigger companies because they do everything possible for their guests to give them an exclusive Safari feeling. On day 2, Felix knew, we like a good coffee, so he arranged a French press so that we always had an amazing arabica coffee with us.

All accommodations, the service and friendliness of everyone was outstanding. The food so good and tasty everyday that it is hard to say „no“ to a desert. Although we should have done with 10 days in the car

An unforgettable safari with our guide Bashir
5/5

My wife and I had an unforgettable trip with our private guide Bashir on a 5 day camping safari.

Firstly serengeti wakanda were so easy to communicate with when booking the safari and allowed us to go back and forth to get it exactly how we like. They even changed our itinerary for us and our accommodation last minute so we could travel to western serengeti to see the great migration!

Secondly, our brilliant guide Bashir allowed us to see every animal we could possibly imagine and more in those 5 days. We saw all the big 5 and much more! Bashir was very knowledgeable and was a joy to spend 5 days with. He got the perfect balance between providing us with great company and giving my wife and I our own private time too. I would definitely recommend asking for Bashir, he knew exactly where to go to find everything.

Thirdly the company provides you with cooked meals throughout your stay. We felt so privileged to have Idreesa as our chef who cooked up the most amazing of dishes whilst we were on a campsite. We were celebrating our anniversary on this trip and he baked us a delicious cake to celebrate the day.

We will be recommending this company and our guide and chef to all our friends and family so if you're not sure, choose serengeti wakanda and enjoy the best trip of your life.

An incredible experience. A 5***** Safari !
5/5

No notes or words can express my immense gratitude to Bartho (the local owner) and his entire team for an experience that will remain forever engraved in my mind, but also in my heart. A trip made with my 14-year-old daughter.
First of all, the e-mail exchanges went very smoothly and Bartho was able to answer all my questions and advise me.

Then, on site, our driver and guide, Bashir, who speaks French, was extraordinary! He made this trip the one I could never have dreamed of. He knew how to answer all our questions, was always in a good mood, funny and an outstanding driver in a not-so-simple environment... (only those who've been there can understand

A company with integrity
5/5

This company checks all the boxes and is really doing all the right things. They have integrity and deal with clients with honesty and care. We did a 6 day safari camping trip with them and had some of the best experiences of our life. Starting with Bartho who is the founder. He was clear and honest from day one on what you can expect for the trip. When asked about seeing animals he did not over promise or over sell, he told us what we will see and what is likely a rare sighting. He also breifed us very precisely of all the segments of our trip. Once we started our safari things just got better. Our crew were Felix and Dula, a very professional team that exceeded out expectations. Felix was the guide, he is a man of integrity and does his job proudly. I cannot express how much he over delivered, from waking us up extra early to beat the crowds to finding the right acacia tree to photograph sunrise from. The man loves his job and does it to the fullest. He is also very knowledgeable, it was obvious very quickly that there was no species of animals that he did not recognize. He also informed us about the culture, the tradition, and the norms of Tanzania. Regardless of how difficult the driving got, or how long the days were for him he always smiled. Than there was Abdullah (dula for short) who was our cook for the trip, he shocked the entire group with his cooking skills, especially given the very basic equipment we had at the camp site. It will get very lengthy if I was to talk about the verity and quality of food we had but I'll just say that we had soup, saled, a main course, and dessert for every single lunch and dinner that were of restaurant quality. All were amazing and very filling. I cannot express just how good the food was, we brought our snacks with us thinking we would need them since this was a budget camping safari....we never used them, we were fed like Kings. Dula even managed to bake a cake for my wife's birthday, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SERENGETI! If your looking for a camping safari trip do not hesitate to use this company, they really know what they are doing and will not disappoint you.

Amazing experience with great guide and chef
5/5

Our 6 days safari with Serengeti Wakanda was an absolute blast! Thanks to our super guide Felix and his experience we saw all the Big 5 (including the black rhino in Serengeti, which is extremely rare - there are only 14 in the park) and even cheetas. It really seemed that everywhere we went there were animals waiting for us. Felix was very knowledgeable about all the animals and their behavior and his explanations made the whole experience even more memorable.
The tent/camping equipment was very comfortable and our chef Doula was making sure we had a 5-star dining experience at every meal (with fresh bread baked daily even in the camp in the middle of Serengeti/Ngorongoro). We had a home cooked meal every day at lunch which we took at picnic sites in the various parks, and all the other safari groups with sad looking lunch boxes were very envious!
Cherry on the cake, we were proud to support a local safari company!
