Very good experience and great in communication
Heading: One of the most dreamed experience ever in my life.
It was our first time to to Tanzania with my family! We were four of us, I, my husband and our two kids. After getting in touch with this company through safari booking, I started chatting with Justine ( The owner of the company). He was very informative and so quick to respond to all our questions, then after we all managed to agreeing on everything about safari. In our safari to Selous ( Nyerere National Park) we had the loveliest and most exciting days in with our guide Elihaki! Everything went smoothly, from the initial point up to our drop off in Zanzibar. The whole safari was super well planned, the lodges we booked were good and there was always enough food and drinks. Elihaki was also flexible regarding our wishes and needs. Also important to mention, we felt safe and well guided the entire time. During the game drives, Elihaki was able to explain a lot about the nature and animals. We managed to see a lot of animals.
All in all, I would at any time recommend Shammah Wonders Safari to my family and friends, and especially our friend Elihaki as our trusted guide of all times

Great team and response time
Justin did a great job replying to our questions and helping to arrange our safari. Elihaki was the safari driver from heaven and was incredibly knowledgeable when it came to finding the animals and helping us to learn more about them. We would return tomorrow if it meant we had Elihaki for another drive.

Professional Service with good communication and smooth booking
We looked at a number of potential Tour operators but found the response and answers to our questions very prompt from Justine Shammah Wonders.
We booked a safari for our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We booked the 3 day Safari from Zanzibar, with transfers which were very smooth apart from a slight hiccup with the return taxi to the hotel being slightly delayed which was understandable.
We stayed in a comfortable Camp and lodge that was well organised and on the outskirts of the National Park where we even managed to see a few animals ( Water Buffalo, Elephant, Monkeys and the lovely bush babies ). The Maasai warrior guards at the camp were absolutely wonderful and even gave a warrior dance and song performance for us. There was limited pictures and information about the Camp when we booked but it was well organised and comfortable with quaint traditional lodges. Our driver for the Safari ( Eric ) was so knowledgeable and experienced, but also great company. He knew where to find all the animals and could spot them a mile away, we learned a lot about the animals, and ecosystems from him. I have to also mention our bush guide for our bush walk, Dr Simba who was very entertaining but also knowledgeable about the plant life and ecosystems. We can definitely recommend this tour operator and tour - from booking to experience itself. We were super excited to have this Safari experience which was just amazing. Thank You Shammah Wonders, Justine and Eric

Amazing experinece 3 days at Selous
We were looking for an amazing experience for our honeymoon in Tanzania-Zanzibar so looking around the internet we found that Shammah Wonders Safari, had very very good reviews, and without overthinking I contacted Justin. We chose the 3 days safari in Selous with flys from Zanzibar he makes everything so special and private. We stayed in an amazing bungalow in the Camp and lodge just outside the National Park with so much luck to see animals like elephants, buffalo, monkeys, and lovely bush babies while having our meals during our stay at the lodge. It
is very usual that Maasai warrior guards the resorts and help tourist with their stay. The guys at the camp were wonderful and even gave a warrior dance and song performance in the night.
Our driver during the stay and for the Safari was Fidelis who impressed us with his knowledge and humble personality, I don't have enough words to express my gratitude. He knew exactly where to find all the animals and could spot them a mile away, we learned a lot about the animals, and ecosystems from him. I have to also mention our bush guide for our bush walk, Dr Simba, such a guy!!! who was very entertaining but also knowledgeable about plant life and ecosystems. He taught us how to make fire with our hands and we had a wonderful time. We recommend Justin if you want and special experience. We were super excited to have this Safari experience which was just amazing. Thank You, Shammah Wonders, Justine, and Fidelis for making our dreams come true in the nicer way ever imagine.

Wonderful Experience… go for it!!!
I’ve always wanted to tick a safari of my bucket list, but didn’t think I would be overly into it. But I was pleasantly surprised this safari was awesome and I loved it. The amount of animals I saw far exceeded my expectations and our guide Tony was great at finding them and giving us interesting information on them. Tony was a really nice man, and his efforts to make sure we got the most out of the experience were much appreciated. Apart from Rhinos ( which weren’t in the parks we went to), we saw everything we could see, and felt like a National Geographic photographer even just using our phones. The additional river boat cruise we had on our 3 day safari to Mikumi and Selous National Park. I highly recommend Shammah Wonder Safari.

They are very professional, good communication before and during the trip
We booked a 2-day safari in Nyerere national park. Our guide Salum picked us up at our hotel in Dar es Salaam which was very convenient. The game drive on the first day was amazing, Salum really made an effort to find all the animals. We saw lions, buffalos, hippos, giraffes, crocodiles, elephants, pumbas, different kinds of antilopes and monkeys. Salum has a lot of experience and we learned a lot from him about the animals.
The second day we went on a 2 hour river safari by boat. We saw many different kinds of birds, the hippos up close, a baby crocodile and an elephant. We went with another guide on the boat who was also really good.
The camp is super nice with a swimming pool and a beautiful fireplace in the evening. All the meals were great as well, especially the dinner.
We would really recommend Shammah wonders safari. Thanks again for an amazing adventure!

Really great service, guide and tour at Nyerere/Selous National park!
We did a 4 day trip to Nyerere/Selous National Park which has been an awesome experience!
To let you know from the beginning why we give 4 instead of 5 stars: This is "only" because of the car which made some troubles. But Shammah Wonders guides of this park should use another/ a new one by now! :)
The rest was really great. Starting from planning the trip and communication with Justin: This happened via Mail and WhatsApp. Shammah Wonders was very flexible and we could extend the offered 3 day trip to a 4 day trip with one more day of Game Drive. Also some spontaneous changes on site have been arranged. We flew in from Zanzibar. Pick-Ups and flight worked smoothly. The camp was nice, elephants and warthogs visited us in the camp. Our guide Eric was excellent and fun! We saw the Big 5 (except Rhinos, which don't exist in the park) and there wasn't a question he could not answer about animal and wild life.
Personally, we would skip the programme items village tour and walking safari the next time and focus on game drive and boat safari. But all in all a fantastic trip and incredible experience. Nyerere National Park and Shammah Wonders are recommendable! Asante sana!

Fantastic Safari at Nyerere/Selous National park!
We went on a 3 day Safari on 22, 23 and 24 of December 2022, it was great and well organized from the beginning. Justin from Shammah Wonders Safari provided all the details and support before we booked, great service before, during and after the trip. On Day 1 picked up at our hotel in Zanzibar for an early flight to Selous. At arrival, our guide/driver Ely Hachim was waiting for us. Ely was amazing: he was so kind, flexible, great service and game drives! We saw so many animals (elephants, hippos, buffalo, giraffe, lion, zebra, wildebeast, monkeys, crocodiles etc) and learned a lot from Ely. Especially our 6 year old son loved his stories about the nature (we saw a Baobab tree of 2000 yrs old) and animals. We also really enjoyed the walking safari with Ely and the Masai. The boat safari was interesting and gave us a different view from the river. Also here we spotted hippos and crocodiles. In summary, really great service, guide and tour at Nyerere/Selous National park! Thanks so much Ely and Justin from making our dreams come true! Asanti San!
