My honest review of a Safari trip with the Serengeti African Tours operator
5/5

In February 2024 together with my wife and my adult granddaughter we took a Safari trip to Tanzania National Parks. This trip was promised to my granddaughter long ago, but I had no time to fulfill my promise. I am very meticulous about details when I travel, thus I started to read internet to see what people write about their experience. Among others, I found a few good reviews of the company by the name Safari African Tours. In principle I do not fully trust many of the reviews published on Internet but decided to try.

Now after the tour is over, I must say that not only all these excellent reviews of the Safari African Tours are true, but in my many years of business and personal travels I never experienced such a perfect service as provided by the Safari African Tours and personally by its owner and manager Mr. Lucas David!

First of all, Lucas was always available to answer your question and to give some advice. Before the trip I called him through WhatsApp many times and e-mailed him multiple times to receive an answer within 24 hours. Lucas offered many options for the future travel both regarding the price and the schedule. Important, he was never pushy to choose a higher price but let you decide based on your budget. Since both me and my wife are not young, I chose a relatively expensive (at least for my wallet ) private travel for our group of three to visit four National parks including Serenegeti an Ngoro-Ngoro and having a day hiking trip to Kilimanjaro . Now I must say that our travel was worth of every dollar I spent on it. Importantly, Lucas was attentive and responsive not only before the start of the travel, but also after I paid for it on the first day of the travel. Moreover, after our travel was over, we decided spent an extra day in Moshi and Lucas provided us for this day a complimentary hiking to the Materuni waterfalls and visit to te coffee makers that was one of the jewels of the entire trip.

Lucas solved immediately all the smallest problems during the tour that inevitably arise in a 11-day travel making your journey smooth and perfect. Also, it seems that Lucas managed to hire highly professional guides. Our main driver-guide Abu was more than excellent. He was knowledgeable on animals and on Tanzania in general. Although, according to him, he was on Safari more than a thousand times, he was as enthusiastic as us tracing various animals and driving us to where they can be spotted. As the result we have seen all the main animals. Thank you, Abu! Several other Lucas’ staff we met, in particular two drivers by the same name Kelvin were very friendly and helpful, especially one who accompanied us to the Materuni waterfalls!

As a scientist who wrote hundreds of reviews of the works of my colleagues, I know that for fairness one must add a couple of critical notes to improve the future work. But in the case of Lucas’ the Safari African Tours I do not have any critical remarks. I wish he will remain to be as perfect for the future travelers as he was for us.

Excellent staff and guides, we would highly recommend!
5/5

We did a three day safari starting and ending in Zanzibar, 2 parents, 2 kids ages 5 and 8. We flew to Arusha then to seronera in a small fixed wing plane which was amazing! You could see the many masai villages below, it was a great start to the experience!
We did Serengeti and Ngorogoro and both were gorgeous. We stayed at Heritage lodge tented camp in Serengeti and I would HIGHLY recommend it! The staff and food was excellent but the ambience of staying out in the wild was unbeatable. The hot lunch the chef prepared for our safari the next day was probably the best we ate the entire trip!
In Ngorogoro we stayed at the Serena which has an amazing view of the crater. While Serena is definitely a very nice hotel with all the amenities, I would still recommend the tented lodge as you get a really close to nature experience!
In three days we saw lots of animals including a pride of 15 lions as well as a lion hunt and kill a wildebeest. It was an incredible adventure and I would book again with Serengeti African tours in a heart beat!
Safina from the office was super helpful during the booking process and David our guide was top notch, super knowledgeable and patient with our wild children!

Our safari to Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire was perfect. Our guide was very friendly and professional. The cook prepared amazing food. During our safari we saw all the big five and a lot of animals very close. The communication with the tour provider was very good and all our questions got answered.

Highly professional team delivered an outstanding customer experience
5/5

Our amazing 9-day private safari adventure was made possible by the exceptional team at Serengeti African Tours. The planning and booking process was the best I have ever experienced for any trip. The owner, Lucas, was available at any time - day or night - to answer questions and provide suggestions for our safari. Once on the ground, we were cared for by a very professional and knowledgeable guide and driver, Jovin, along with his assistant, Kelvin. They were very flexible, and went out of their way to ensure that we experienced everything that we hoped for. Jovin was an exceptional driver, and was able to navigate the challenging terrain far better than any of the other drivers that we saw from other safari operators. The accommodations were comfortable and the route was well-planned to take maximum benefit from our time. The pricing was fair, and the service far exceeded our expectations. I will recommend Serengeti African Tours to anyone planning a safari to Tanzania or Kenya, and look forward to using them again on our next safari.

Providing a stunning tour at excellent value
5/5

The tour company was very communicative and answered all my questions. Lucas was easy to contact and made sure we had all the details we needed. Our chef, Salim, was excellent, providing a delicious variety of foods for each meal. Our driver and guide, Mandela, was very keen to share his knowledge with us and clearly knew the best places to see the bounty of the Serengeti. We were fortunate to have animals at both camps, elephants on the first night in the Serengeti and buffalo on the crater rim camp on day 2. Meals and driving breaks were planned with perfect timing and the cold water each morning was a real treat. Truly an excellent experience.
