AquilaVenture stand by and for you, to make your Safari an absolute success.
When we (2 persons) were looking for a reliable and professional Safari tour operator, Aquila Venture Tours and Safaris came out to be an operator with a very good scoring. It is also not a big company (4 cars) which ensures you have personal contact with the management of the tour operator. We arranged everything 2 months in advance, but this if of course subject to your own schedule, as they can be very flexible and think with you to find the best program. Bakari (management, there are 2 Bakari’s) was helping me out with the planning and the costs via Whatapp. This all went smooth and the communication was good. We payed a small amount in advance, as a deposit / for the lodges.
We first went to Zanzibar and told Bakari which flight we would be on and he confirmed everything was arranged. On the day of arrival, Bakari first came to the airport to welcome us and handle the last part of the payment. This all went very quick and good.
After this, Bakari (guide) came with the Safari car and showed us where we would spend a lot of time in the upcoming days. The car :’)
The Serengeti NP is not around the corner. A lot of the tour operators drive from Arusha or Kilimanjaro airport. Arusha is the fastest way, and so did we. The driving of Bakari was absolutely astonishing. He did so well, especially in the parks, with sometimes extreme rain and flooded, slippery roads, he managed to guide us safely through the park.
The lodges Embalakai and Farm of Dreams were both great. I can recommend them wholeheartedly. If you are in the park and have the chance to sleep in the Embalakai camp, I really advise to do so.
We have seen so many wildlife in just 3 days. The big 5 for sure, but also so much more. Bakari (guide) was so sharp and could see wildlife we did not see with our binoculars. He was just so trained, really impressive.
The lunches and the service was perfect. In the end, we were brought to a hotel in Arusha were we spend the night as our flight was leaving the following morning and Bakari (management) came to the hotel especially to hear from us our experience. Very impressive to see how far the company is going to make sure you had a wonderful time. They even brought us the following day to the airport which was so nice, good service.
They wash the car in between and ensure that after every safari, the car goes to a garage for inspection. Safety and Quality is standing very high for them.
So, the Serengeti NP, Ngorogoro and all that we did, together with Bakari / Aquila Venture Tours and Safari’s was really an amazing experience and I would recommend them to you all.
Bakari’s, thank you for making it a succes.

Aquila Venture Tours Best Tour Operators
As an avid traveler and safari enthusiast, I've had the privilege of embarking on numerous wildlife adventures across Africa. Among the many tour operators I've encountered, Aquila Venture Tours Tanzania stands out as an exceptional provider of unforgettable safari experiences. Their passion for wildlife conservation, commitment to responsible tourism, and dedication to personalized service have made them my go-to choice for exploring the wonders of Tanzania.

Professional organisation with excellent driver
We booked a midprice safari end of December 2023: all was best, starting from the pick up at the airport, accommodation (lodge, tented camp, hotel) and for sure the safari itself. Our sympatic driver figured out as the best and motivatest animal spotter ever and could not stop searching until we saw even the last one of the African big five!
For sure, we will choose Bakari and his team for our next African Safari experience again!

Exhuberant, warm, and always looking to give us the best experience possible
Everything was great! All the details were taken care of for us, and we were given lots of freedom to choose what we wanted to prioritize. It's not always possible to see every animal, especially during low season, but Zuberi managed to get show us every single thing we asked for, and was delightful throughout. Especially considering how much more expensive other equivalent safaris are, I can't imagine getting more value for money.

Your Safari with Bakari, so recommended!
Bakari picked us up in the border with Kenya and the party started. He is super kind, very good person, his English was good enough, brought us super tasty food and took us to the best spots to see all kinds of wildlife. He was a big part of our dreamed trip.
The only thing that did not made the trip 100% perfect, was the management level. Not only that we had troubles during the safari payment, but also the boss seemed not much interested in our wellbeing, but only in money and in us writing this opinion. This is what mattered for him.

Amazing
We were on an amazing trip in Tarangire and Ngorogoro crater with Omary, a real veteran tour guide. He knows every creature and every route in the area, like the back of his hand. Never been on such an adventure before!
I recommend you to book this tour, and ask Omary as your guide to get an experience of a lifetime! I hope we can come back sometime, because there is so much left to explore in Tansania.
Want to thank you again for all the caring and kindess!
