Wakanda Tours organized the perfect 5-day Safari for us
5/5

We went on a 5 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti (2 days), Ngorongoro) with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and had the best trip we could have asked for. Communication, organization, service, and the team itself were excellent.

Bharti (one of the co-founders) handled all the communication previous to our travels. Bharti speaks excellent English and is a genuinely nice and honest person that helps you with all kind of questions before, during and after the trip. The organization of the transportation and safari were seamless and always on time.

If you book with Wakanda, ask for Andrew as your guide and Suleiman as your chef. Andrew speaks good English (he's also fluent in French) and knows everything about the parks and their inhabitants. Furthermore, he's an excellent driver (a skill that one shouldnt underestimate) and has eagle-eyes, which helped us spotting the following animals: Three groups of Lions, incl. cubs from less than 2 meters, leopards, cheetahs, servals, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, zebras, elephants, wilder beasts, monkeys etc.

Suleyman is equally cheerful and somehow manages to cook excellent food despite cooking on rather poorly equipped campsites on a nightly basis. As an extra he's also knows many things about the parks and animals and is happy to share his knowledge with you.

All in all, I can strongly recommend you to book with Wakanda. Other than many other providers, Barthi is not pushy and gives you all the time you need to make your decision. Wakanda also doesnt sell its customers to other operators in cases they do not manage to get a full group of six people.

Bucket list trip
5/5

Really could not have asked for a better trip to serengeti and ngoro ngoro crater. Our guide was super knowledgeable at explaining everything we saw and ensuring we got to see everything, the food was amazing and we had a great time sharing beers and laughs with the other people on our tour. My first experience camping but it was comfortable with good facilities! We had an unforgettable experience in such an amazing part of the world, really recommend this tour :)

Was an amazing experience, we could not wish more what we received from the Wakamda team!
5/5

From the begging Bartho was really helpful and always available. He also picked us up from the airport and gave us all the information what we needed. The 4 days safari was just amaizing. Our guide Ernest and our safe Chilli was helping us in any cases, any time. Our safari experience was something what we could not even imagine. That was our first safari but definitely not the last! Thank you for everything again! Wakanda forever!

Great value and hassle-free experience
5/5

I’ve been dreaming of going on a safari forever and this trip exceeded my expectations! Went on a 5 day safari to 4 parks, so was able to see all that the region has to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the animals and their whereabouts so we saw the big 5 and others in abundance. We had a cook with us who was very talented and the fresh meals were very large and much more appealing than the box lunches other groups had. Relaxing with a few beers around the campfire after a long day in the car was also very fun and unique to this tour. Bartho was very responsive and accommodating, which made this last minute trip for me possible. Being picked up from the airport and having lodging included before and after the trip was very convenient. Overall this trip was fantastic and I’m very glad I booked with Serengeti Wakanda!

Amazing experience
5/5

This was an amazing experience. Our guide and driver Andrew was the Best!!! He was so knowledgeable about all the birds and animals. In addition to his great driving skills he had eagle eyes and saw animals that we had no idea were there. We saw the Big 5 and so many other animals and birds. We saw the Rhino in the Ngarongaro crater Less than an hour before we had to leave. He would not give up until we found him. He would stop and maneuver to the best spot to take the best pictures. Our chef Soliman made the best meals you could ask for. Even fresh baked rolls for breakfast. This safari exceeded all my expectations and will never forget this experience.

A trip I won't forget.
5/5

After booking my tour with Wakanda, Bartho contacted me and answered all my questions regarding transfers from Kilamanjaro Airport, recommendations on where to stay in Arusha town pre and post safari, details of the safari, what to bring etc. He was very professional and timely. Our safari guide was amazing, knowledgeable and patient. We saw the Big 5 and so much more. Our chef made excellent food. The lodging and camping equipment were more than satisfactory. Bartho made sure all transfers were set up and on time. A quality and unforgettable experience all around. Thanks Bartho!

Wonderful
5/5

I had a wonderful time on this 4 day safari. There are so many safari companies in Arusha so it can be overwhelming to decide which one but if you're looking for a well run trip on a budget, look no further. Great organisation beforehand with Bartho, Malisa was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide and Dula was a fabulous cook. December turned out to be a perfect month for safari - the late rains meant that everything was lush and it also brought out many animals but they stopped to give us plenty of blue skies and sunshine.
The only tip I would make for future travellers is to bring your own snacks if you are someone who gets hungry - while the meals were huge and delicious there were often big gaps between meal times.

Incredible Experience!
5/5

My husband and I went on a 4 day 3 night safari to Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, and Ngorongoro Crater. The trip was amazing! Seeing all of the animals up close was truly an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend going on a tour with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. Bartho was very professional and he responded to my questions quickly when booking the tour. Our safari driver and guide was Malisa. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, very good at spotting the animals and just enjoyable to be around and talk to. Our chef was Dula. He prepared amazing homemade food for us such has pizza, quiche, dinner rolls, breads, tartes, soups, curries, and so much more. We were totally spoiled on this budget safari!

Fantastic safari - great company to travel with!
5/5


The safari game drives were incredible, and the whole tour was faultless from the start and the quote and booking process was so easy. Bartho was great - reliable and really informative with the planning and details, as well as answering any questions. Our guide, Maliaki, was excellent at giving us info on the nature and wildlife we saw and made sure we got to see as much as possible. The cook, Sule, was also fantastic - there was always plenty of food (all very good food!) and he catered for all of our different food requests and requirements. They all worked really hard to make sure the safari was the best it could be, and were all really friendly - would definitely recommend this company!

A Trip to Remember !
5/5

Spent three wonderful days with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris adventuring through Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater National Park, and Lake Manyara; three stunning places to visit while traveling through Tanzania where you are guaranteed to see a wide range of animals. The people, culture, and landscape do not disappoint! Thank you, Wakanda Tours, for your hospitality and flexibility!
