Amazing experience with a Top Tourguide!
5/5

My partner and I had an amazing 5 days on this safari in Tanzania. We were mesmerised with the scenery, the animals are the breathtaking things we have seen. Our tour guide Floridi was exceptional, his knowledge was another level. He knew everything about the places where we went to, not just the big 5, but even the little birds you could see around. He was with us from dawn to sundown making sure we had the best experience. Upon our return we heard from other travellers that some unfortunately did not have the best experience due to their tour guides not been sufficiently knowledgeable, trust us as for Floridi - you wont regret it. We will come back with our little one once she is a bit bigger, truly an experience you don’t want to miss 😍

An Unforgettable Safari: Exceptional Service, Stunning Wildlife, and Memories to Last a Lifetime!
5/5

It was an unforgettable, unique experience. It started with the great booking assistance we received from Happiness. She helped us with every question we had before departure and tailored the trip exactly to our wishes.
The safari itself was simply a dream. Our driver Simon, a real "safari monster" and the best photographer (pictures better than National Geographic), made the trip unforgettable by not only allowing us to see the Big 5 and take breathtaking pictures, but also catering to all our wishes, telling us a lot about the animals, and so on. We have already recommended the trip to many of our friends and hope to return one day, again with Simon of course. Many thanks for everything!

Very knowledgeable and caring.
5/5

This was one of the most amazing trips we’ve ever taken. Starting off with booking everything with Zuria, she was very responsive and answered any questions we had. Throughout the duration of the trip, our guide Raymond was amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable about all the animals and culture in Tanzania and was able to answer any question we had. Raymond was very kind to us and even other guides out on the safari, he didn’t hesitate to help any others in need. Most importantly, Raymond made us feel safe the entire duration of our trip, he wasn’t just our guide but our friend. I would highly recommend booking this trip to anyone interested in a safari, and can be sure you will have an unforgettable experience.

Top Safari Operator Definitely !!!
5/5

Me and my friend had a perfect 6 days' safari with Safari Tours!

Wrote emails to over 30 5-stars safari operators, Safari Soles won us in the final round owning to timely communication, price, well-organized schedule ! Before the journey, I did homework my own and had a rough idea of Tanzania Parks, the plan made by Oken perfectly matched with my expectation! And he was the first one replied my request email among all operators I asked even in the weekend. Although one of the accommodation was changed due to fully booked, Oken communicated with me timely and added me in WeChat app taking care of Chinese customers. The only thing could be improved is, I requested and paid 40% deposit 2 months ahead, but the flight ticket and accommodation booking letters didn't sent to me till a week before we start the journey. I don't know whether it's reservation team got slack at their work or caused by accommodation staffs, anyway, if the booking status could be communicated weekly, that would make me feel they are trying best to help book rooms. Beside this, Oken was really friendly and gave me a very warm welcome before the trip!

Beside wonderful views, our guide Alex was part of this lifetime experience! Alex was not only a professional guide, skilled driver, animal expert, human binocular, safari guard, private photographer, but also our friend! During the afternoon in Ngrongoro, we saw Big 5 in the same day! The moment he heard there's a leopard near, he drove us there ASAP, just after 5 minutes, leopard ran away! Thanks to Alex! Then we spent 2 days in Serengeti, saw 2 lions eating a buffalo, Alex taught us how Lions hunt and how to start from the tail of animals, we enjoyed a live BBC broadcast with a running commentary! The last day in Serengeti, though wildebeests failed to cross mara river due to one was caught by crocodile, Alex explained the wildebeest group immigration behaviors and how they live together with zebras, that's super interesting!

In conclusion, we really appreciate everything safari soles arranged for us, especially Oken and Alex, we can't have such a perfect experience without you two! I'll definitely recommend safari soles to all my friends who plan to go Tanzania!!

5/5

We had absolutely the perfect experience with Safari Soles. From the first contact to the end! 1 A organized & always available. The safari was simply incredible, we saw elephants, lions, rhinos, giraffes and countless other animals up close. Great food, wine, beer etc. all included. Great accommodation for the overnight stay. Special thanks go to Boniface and Jessica for the organization and especially to our driver, Cheddy! Cheddy was a very careful driver, always concerned about the well-being of the animals and his guests, incredibly friendly, in a good mood and answered all of our questions. Simply great.

7 day private family Safari - bly in and drive out
5/5

We just finished a 7 day safari for a family group of 7 with Safari Soles and Isack as our Guide. Everything thing about the process was top notch professional from the quotation and contracting phase, to the transportation and of course most important, the Safari guide support by Isack.
After getting quotations from several good tour operators, we chose Safari Soles based on their excellent past reviews, a competitive price and timely support during the planning and contracting process. We chose to fly into the northern Serengeti from Arusha on the morning of day one and drive out which was an excellent way to get the most out of your time. We were met by Isack (who had driven ten hours the day before to be ready to meet us when we landed at 8:15am. We immediately started the game drive and by 10:00 we were watching two lines of hundreds of wildebeest crossing the Mara river back into Tanzania – a sight we hoped but did not expect to see. We continued the week staying at excellent camps in the Serengeti, Crater and Tarangaire with sights of dozens of lions, leopard with her dinner (zebra) in the tree with her, dozens of elephants, water buffalo, zebra and other beautiful game.

We can’t say enough about Isack really made the week for us with his professionalism, excellent knowledge providing detailed answers to our countless questions, and his close attention to little details that made the Safari experience better for all of us. We all felt like he was part of the family by day 7. You can’t go wrong with this team.

Excellent local tour operator! Planned to the notch!
5/5

Such a great local tour operator! Their service, adaptability, competitive pricing and response made trip planning so easy!
Package was well planned for 9-10 days and covered all the key areas!
And we had the best guide - CHEDY! He is the most kind, funny, knowledgeable, patient and experienced person I have ever met! He drove well, had an answer always to our 1000s of questions, would spot an animal way before we could even realize and was the most fantastic host! I truly recommend him to any of the trips and would return to TZ especially if he would guide us again! Kudos to Safari Soles!
