Absolutely amazing!
5/5

We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Serengeti national park and Ngorongoro conservation area organized by locally owned and operated Serengeti African Tours and have nothing but raving reviews for Lucas and his team. They were passionate, knowledgeable and genuinely committed to making our stay in Tanzania one to remember forever. Our guide, Abu, was fantastic- in addition to being a wildlife expert, he was super friendly, answering all our questions, adapting the drives to what we hoped to see, and showing us the truly welcoming spirit of Tanzanian culture. I cannot recommend Serengeti African Tours enough. Thank you Lucas and Abu for memories we will cherish forever!

Outstanding safari experience and operator
5/5

We had the perfect trip to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Abu, our guide, was knowledgeable, respectful, fun, and wonderful to hang out with. We worked with Lucas to put together an ideal itinerary that met our needs and expectations. Lucas was responsive, clear, honest, and always accommodating. We couldn't have asked for more! I chose Serengeti African Tours after extensive research and highly recommend them after our visit.

Amazing 6 Day Safari trip - Thanks!
5/5

Serengeti African Tours is amazing and one of the main reasons it is so is because of Lucas who is the director of this company. He is the reason that I booked with Serengeti African tours and from the time I was discovering my trip to booking to the entire trip, I kept working with Lucas on various questions/inquiries - he is always available and takes care of the guests really well.
About the safari, it is a really good way to do Serengeti, Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro and Moshi town Coffee plantation/waterfalls. The trip is really well organized and everything is done smoothly to a very high level of efficiency. I am a vegetarian and every meal was custom made to my preference. Guides/Drivers were really good including Godi, Edgar and Max. The hotels where they put me up were amazing but special mention to Ngorongoro Marera Mountain view lodge - I had the pleasure of staying here for two nights and this facility including its staff is just exceptional. Also, almost equally good was Angata Ngorongoro camp - I truly enjoyed staying the state of art tents there. Seronera wildlife lodge is a bit rundown but also had amazing staff and cook who made me Indian food. While Safaris are true delight, the coffee plantation and waterfalls tour on the last day is amazing too - don't miss it and highly recommend Serengeti African Tours for Tanzania tours. Thanks Lucas!

Amazing experience, highly recommend!
5/5

If you’re considering booking with this tour company, I 100% recommend booking with them! During my booking process, I was between this company and a larger company with more reviews (so I was leaning towards the other company), but Lucas from Serengeti African Tours convinced me to book with them—and I’m soooo glad I did, I had the best time ever on my safari trip with Serengeti African Tours!

I booked the mid-range option, and Lucas definitely over delivered on the accommodations! This was my birthday trip, and he made sure everything was nothing short of amazing! The lodges were literally breathtaking, like literally I was thoroughly impressed each time (thanks so much Lucas!).

The Safari experience itself was so surreal! Our tour guide/driver Hasan was super knowledgeable providing so many interesting and cool facts, and he knew exactly where to go to spot the animals up close. We were able to spot the Big 5 which was so cool! Our cook also provided super tasty meals each day for lunch—like a full on spread that had me so impressed (we had breakfast, dinner and additional lunch boxes provided by our lodges that was also really good).

For my first Safari, this beyond exceeded my expectations! I look forward to booking with them again in the future. If you’re considering this company, I highly recommend booking with them! Thanks again to Lucas for making my trip so beautiful and special!

Una experiencia inigualable
5/5

We are a family of 4 people from Ecuador and we did the 4 day safari. It was something wonderful, excellent organization, our guide in Spanish EZEQUIEL gave everything so that we could enjoy this experience, in addition to being a great human being, he is a worthy ambassador of his land because he leaves us wanting to return and recommend him 100%. We love Tanzania.

Very nice private safari
4/5

We booked a private safari (Ndutu, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) with Serengeti African Tours. Our contact with Lucas was very smooth and he responded to all our questions promptly. We enjoyed the mid range accommodations very much, especially Suenos luxury camp, where hippo's passed our tent at night (we felt very safe!). We did not have one of the outgoing driver/guides as mentioned in the other reviews. We had hoped to learn a lot about all of the animals, our driver/guide was a really nice guy but unfortunately wasn't very talkative and did not explain that much about the animals, and did not really respond elaborately to all of our questions. Also the radio of our vehicle did not work: it made it more difficult to know where to go to see specific animals. Fortunately our driver made a big effort to talk to all other passing vehicles and he was a great animal spotter. We saw the big five and enjoyed a magnificent private encounter with a cheetah. All the food was delicious. Overall we look back at a great experience.

Amazing 4 Day Safari! Must Book!
5/5

Lucas was planned an amazing 4 day group safari for us! From accommodations to our safari driver to delicious food to creating a group with great dynamics, the entire experience was spectacular. As a plus, we were able to see the big 5 during the safari and our driver made sure of this! Finally, Lucas ended our tour by sharing gifts with us from Tanzania, which was extremely thoughtful.

Overall, I would highly recommend Serengeti African Tours to book your safaris. The company pays attention to detail and cares about the customers they serve!

Lucas and Serengeti African Tours are Amazing!
5/5

Asante Sana!
Lucas and Serengeti African Tours (serengetiafricantours.com) deliver an amazing experience.
I wanted to celebrate a “big birthday” in Tanzania and contacted Lucas via email ([email protected]). We decided on the 6-day, 5-night tour.
Lucas and I corresponded via WhatsApp(+255763468213) which made it easy to ask questions. We were able to make the tour private for the 4 of us travelers. Our add-ons included airport transfers, 2 extra hotel stays (before and after the tour), a balloon ride at sunrise over The Serengeti and a trip to the Materuni waterfalls. Also paid for an upgrade to stay at a hotel on the edge of the Ngorongoro Caldera where we celebrated my birthday….cake and all! The place was beautiful and the service was fantastic.
The payment for the tour was easy using Pesapal.
Our guide, David, was knowledgeable, fun, a great story-teller and was able to find all the animals we could of hoped to see. We traveled many miles through North and Central Serengeti where we witnessed a wildebeest and zebra migration and river crossing. We also saw elephants, giraffes, baboons, lions, impalas, vert-vert monkeys, wart hogs, banded mongoose, marsh eagle, african cap buffalo, redbuck, waterbucks, hippopotamus, ostrich, gazelle, hornbill, jackal, hyena, cheetah, antelope, vulture, bushbuck, maroub stork, hammerkorp bird, grey heron, African rabbit, Nile crocodile, serval cat, leopard, Egyptian goose, kirk’s dik-dik, heartebeast, secretary bird, tawny eagle, flamingo, cap tea, blacksmith plover , moorhen bird, caracal, grey crown crane, suní antelope.
His assistant, Beatrice, was super helpful, fun and a joy to be around.
The food is tasty, so bring your appetite!
We had an amazing adventure and hope to be able to come back to visit. When we do, we will call Lucas!
Hakuna matata
FYI: if you need conditioner for your hair, bring it along as many hotels do not provide it.

Safari Serengeti / Ngorongoro / Tarangire
5/5

We decided to book this safaritrip. The contact and booking process with Lucas was very efficient. We really enjoyed this safari trip! Abouh, our driver/guide and Richard, chef) have taken good care of us and made sure that we had a fantastic time. Abouh was very knowledgeable, full of energy and very good with the kids (8 & 9 y/old). We were able to see the big5 with some very close encounters of big cats. Richard cooking skills was fantastic and he showed his agility by preparing gluten free meals for my daughter, which was very much appreciated. Thank you team @ Serengeti Safari for organising.
