Amazing trip with very good and friendly guide and an excellent private chef
5/5

We booked our safari with Wakanda after reading the great reviews and we were not disappointed. Our guide and driver Felix was very experienced and was amazing at spotting animals. We saw the big 5 and many more animals thanks to his skills. He was also a very safe and secure driver and was very informative, answering all our questions skilfully and professionally. He was considerate of our needs and wants and is the best guide we've ever had on a trip. The biggest surprise of this safari however was the food: the "master chef" as we came to call him, Abdullah, was absolutely amazing: he prepared restaurant level meals three times a day for us, with the best fresh baked bread we ever tasted, with amazing sauces and with dessert each time, somehow doing this all in small field kitchens where I could not even manage to fry an egg. We were totally blown away by the quality and amount of food on this "budget" safari. Most other groups had small packed lunchboxes where we were getting full three course meals. Sleeping in the tent among the animals was also quite an experience! The tents are large enough to stand up in and the sleeping mats are more than comfortable enough. Communication with the head office was also very clear, by email and WhatsApp. All around this was definitely an amazing experience that surpassed our expectations and we would wholeheartedly recommend going with Wakanda for your safari, you will not be disappointed. The price was also very much competitive. Wakanda forever!

Excellent company
5/5

Me and my husband went on the 8 day budget safari to Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Eyasi safari. From our first contact we knew we were in good hands. They always responded very quick and provided clear and good information beforehand. The safari itself went beyond our expectations. Especially because of our guide and cook. Felix was a friendly and professional guide that was very knowledgeable about the animals and always provided good information and advice. We were also really happy with our cook Abdullah that went along to cook for us. Every meal was a surprise and celebration. He cooked so many delicious things and soon we were always looking forward to our meals to see what he made. Abdullah kept surprising us with his cooking skills. It was the best food I ever had on any tour. All in all, Wakanda is a very good and professional tour operator. What sets them apart is the amazing food and attention to detail. Abdullah always made fresh bread and lots of fresh vegetables. So we had a varied diet with lots of choice. We always felt taken care of and they made every effort to give us a good safari experience. We saw so many animals, including the big five. If i were to go again, I would choose Wakanda again. With a special request for Felix and Abdullah. I am hoping Abdullah will write his own cookbook.

10/10 safari experience with Serengeti Wakanda
5/5

We went on a 5-day safari with Serengeti Wakanda to Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro Crater.
We had a phenomenal experience with Benjamin as our guide and Dullah as our chef. We felt like a little family because the two were so welcoming and kind. We could talk about everything and all our questions were answered. Benjamin was the best driver, storyteller and guide. He also has a passion for photography and so he drove us to the best spots to take amazing pictures of all the animals. Dullah provided us with delicious food and always made sure that we had a big variety of dishes to choose from.
The campsites were in a very good location and the tents were very comfortable to sleep in. Overall we had an incredible experience and would strongly recommend a safari tour with Serengeti Wakanda and especially with Benjamin and Dullah. It was the experience of a lifetime - 10/10!
Asante sana!

Amazing Tour company - Andrew was 🤩
5/5

Great company who coordinates an itinerary specific to your needs and the time of year you’re there. Our guide Andrew was amazing - he’s very experienced and keen to please - we saw 10 lions per day and saw all of the big 5! He was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and funny! He also troubleshot issues as they arose and advocated for us to ensure we had the best experience on safari and with our lodging. Amazing experience overall! Delicious food!

absolutely fantastic attentive efficient and super helpful and experienced
5/5

We did an amazingly well curated safari that took us first from Materuni where we did a short but lovely hike to a beautiful waterfall followed by a visit to a coffee plantation and authentic local lunch with delicious food. This was a nice start before gng to the parks

Visited Tarangire first then Ndutu and then Southern Serengeti and then Ngorongoro conservation area and finally the coolest spot which is the Ngorongoro crater.

From the very beginning of planning the trip at this particular time etc. Serengeti wakanda were very attentive and helpful and advised us extremely well on what places to visit and routes and accommodation.

We saw awesome things every single day and had honestly the best experience ever mostly because of our AMAZING guide Andrew.

From the beginning Andrew was wonderful. Friendly very attentive welcoming and very funny. He took amazing care of us wherever we went, making sure we were comfortable and made each game drive so fun and worked really hard to make sure we spotted as many animals as possible. Your guide makes ur trip and our trip would not have been half as good if not for him. He's smart very capable and has loads of experience having done this for almost 10 years and dad being a ranger for 25 years he's grown up with so much experience .

Highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda and more than that Andrew as the guide. I can't recommend him more highly. If we could do a safari again it would only be with him as our guide. He is really the best. Thank you S. Wakanda and thank you Andrew! :)

Outstanding
5/5

We can't express enough how much we recommend Serengeti Wakanda for an unforgettable Safari experience. Seriously, they blew us away! From the moment we made our first inquiry, Bartho was incredibly helpful and accommodating, ensuring that every aspect of our adventure was tailored to perfection.
Bartho's expertise and attention to detail made the planning process seamless, answering professionally to all of our questions, reason why we chose Serengeti Wakanda with no hesitation.
On our arrival in Arusha we have met Ben, from Serengeti Wakanda team who explained us all the details about the Safari. Thanks to Ben's efforts, we were able to start our journey with confidence and excitement, knowing that we were in capable hands.
Finally the Safari tour starts! Let’s talk about the game driver, Eduard, we have been incredibly fortunate to have had him as our guide during our adventure.
From the moment we set out on our journey, it was evident that we were in the presence of someone truly special.
From the get-go, he greeted us with enthusiasm, setting the tone for an unforgettable journey filled with laughter!
We can't even begin to express how incredible he was! Not only he helped us spot the Big Five in just one morning, can you believe it?! But he also made sure we felt always safe throughout the entire adventure.
Our safari game driver wasn't just a guide; he was a ray of sunshine on our adventure! His friendliness made every moment of the safari an absolute blast.
With each sighting, he shared fascinating explanations that brought the wilderness to life.
These were days we will never forget, the magic of the safari will stay in our hearts forever together with all the people we have met during the journey and if we will be lucky enough to plan another Safari trip we will definitely choose them again.
Huge thanks to Serengeti Wakanda for making our dream come true!
If you're looking for an incredible Safari experience, look no further than Wakanda Serengeti, trust us you won’t regret it!

Wakanda Forever 🦁

Asante sana,
Paola & Enzo

Amazing experience!
5/5

We embarked on a 7 day safari tour with Serengeti Wakanda and our guide Bashir. The experience had been nothing short of amazing.

From the start, the communication and booking process with Aishwarya had been very smooth. Not only her email response was quick, but she also provided valuable advice and recommendation to customise our itinerary.

We spent 1 day in Tarangire National Park, 2 days in Ndutu, 2 days in Serengeti National Park, and 1 day in Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area.

All the game drives were packed with actions, and this would not be possible without our guide Bashir. He had immense passion for the wildlife and a great sense of humour. He was very knowledgeable about everything we saw, and had unreal skill of spotting animals, large or small. He was very experienced at positioning the jeep so we would have the best angles to take photos but not so close that would disturb the animals. In the end, we succeeded at seeing all the Big 5 and many many more. We could not have asked for a better person to go on a 7 day trip with.

For accommodation, we stayed at Farm of Dreams Lodge, Camp Zebra, Into Wild Africa Luxury Tented Camp, and Ngorongoro Merera Mountain View Lodge. All the staff members were very welcoming and helpful. Special mention for Into Wild Africa - overall best accommodation of the trip.

Going on a safari tour would be an once in a lifetime adventure for most people, and we cannot recommend highly enough for Serengeti Wakanda and our guide Bashir.

The guides are knowledgable and kind, and they do their best to ensure the best experience for us travelers. Special thanks to our guides, Ben and Edward. Asante Sana!

Five stars, we would give six if we could!
5/5

We booked the Fly in-Fly out Safari from Zanzibar with three days Serengeti and one day Ngorongoro Crater. The booking and communication with Serengeti Wakanda leading up to the trip was very friendly and easy. The organization from Pick up to Drop off was seamless, but what really made a difference was our guide Andrew. If you have a chance to book with him, we highly recommend you do that. He is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced and very easygoing, always putting the best possible guest experience first.

If you want to do a Safari in or around Serengeti, this is the company and guide you want to choose!

The most experienced people, it is immediately visible on Safari.
5/5

We couldn't have dreamed of it better. We saw all the big five animals, and even saw a leopard twice. Andrew and Dullah were so amazing that after 6 days it was hard to say goodbye. Andrew has a wealth of knowledge about each animal and Tanzania. Dullah prepares amazing and huge meals. The excellent tour plan allowed us to enjoy the Safari to the fullest. They will adapt to all your needs.
