Incredible experience from beginning to end!
I can't recommend Kasaka Tours highly enough. As a solo traveler looking to do a short safari in the uncertain times of a global pandemic, i was so pleased with the professionalism and reassurance in which John and the Kasaka team communicated with me. They tailored the trip as I requested so I could maximise on the 3 days I had available and to the budget I had. My wonderful guide Julius was not only so experienced (spotting leopards in trees two days in a row from more than a kilometer away!!) but he was a great driver and a lovely kind person and kept me safe! I just wish I had more time for safari but I will definitely be coming back!! Thank you Julius and Kasaka Tours for an unforgettable safari experience!

Our experience with kasakatours was very good. The communication was very smouth and fast. They help you with everything and the trip was very good organised. I really recommend booking your trip with them.

Young, still in love with the job, professional, friendly and reliable
We are a couple with a 4 year old son visiting from West Africa, where travelling is relatively simple and cheap this was our first safari. We had booked a flight to Dar and planned an 8 day trip including Zanzibar, so we wondered if we could fit in a 3-day safari from Dar without taking internal flights. Mikumi Park turned out to be a great choice and, more importantly, Kasaka Tours gave us a seamless positive experience. Following Safaribooking advice, we requested several quotations from different companies, I whatsapped them and John from Kasaka gave me the best, articulated answers. He replied every answer, send me pics of the car and the driver's ID and licence. I found and loved their Instagram page and website, and realized this is the business of a lovely young -Tanzanian and Belgian couple who love what they do. So I chose them over other bigger more famous (and morre expensive) companies I was advised to take, ignoring the advice to stick with the best known and high-end operators or face a disastrous trip. I prayed we made the right choice. And right it was. First of all the flexibility was great: paying an extra, i got them to take me straight from the airport. Francis the driver was friendly, patient, a good conversation. The car, while not new, had a wonderful Indiana Jones feel and was all for us, with a great retractable roof. And never gave us even the hint of engine trouble over 3 days. Patience is key when in the parks and he drove us relentlessly to find the best spots. Francis turned out young but experienced: his detailed questioning of every car we passed in park ensured we wouldn't miss the most recent sightings. We got to see 7 lions napping after just one hour, then over two days giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, elephants, hyppos (in their pool) and all the stuff of our dreams. The Hotel proposed (Tan-Swiss) was excellent with a great pool. Tanzania is stunning. If I had the time and money I'd use them again (same car, same driver) for a Northern Circuit tour. I can only recommend.

Exceptional!
We had an exceptional time as a family. A first night in a guestroom, received with kindness and very good comfort. We took the opportunity to tour the village and discover the beach next door. Then direction Mikumi, with a very friendly guide and really concerned about doing well so that the experience pleases us. We saw a lot of animals lions, elephants, giraffes, monkeys, fachogs ... we slept the 2nd day in an absolutely magnificent lodge to leave the next day on Safari. John and his wife are very professional, I recommend with my eyes closed!

Nyerere Safari
We were looking for a safari for the whole family and found Kasaka Tours. They even found a small baby seat for our 7 month old baby.
We were able to have a say in the tour together with the driver and everything was taken care of.
The price-performance ratio was great.
I highly recommend Kasaka Tours, it was beautiful.
Thank you for everything.

Better than you could imagine
Kasaka tours did exactly what they said.
We paid 50% to confirm the booking and the rest the day before the departure for the Park.
John joined us at our hotel in Dar es Salaam the day before. He explained to us the course of the trip and all the details we needed.
The next morning, our driver Julius was at our hotel and wait for us with his very big "Safari" SUV.
We did the trip to Mikumi (7 to 8 hours) and start our 1st safari for the rest of the day. Julius knows very well the park and the animals.
The park is very quiete, no many other cars and we saw already a lot of specimens (Lion, Giraffe, Gous, Impalas, Elephant...)
We stay two night at our hotel (Camp Atupele). It's really very nice and very comfortable and only 15mn from the entrance of the reserve.
The second day was amazing. 1 full day in the reserve with a lunch in the park and we saw all the animals that it was possible to see even one leopard with her two babies. It's so incredible to see all these beautiful and wild animals in their land and totally free...
The 3rd day return to Dar Es Salaam with so many memories...
If you want to do a safari in Tanzania, don't hesitate, it's really the perfect country.
If you want to do it securely, don't hesitate and choose KASAKA TOURS, you can really trust them

Amazing adventure with Kasaka tours
When we first booked our safari, we contacted several agencies. Kasaka was the only one suggesting our family of three stayed in one cottage with two double beds. Everyone else were suggesting two cottages; One with a double bed, and one with a single bed.
And we couldn't be happier with our choice! Our driver, Julius, was amazing. He did everything he could for us to see what we wanted, and he was very patient with me taking photos. And he was a sweetheart to our eight year old son. He says he is still missing Julius, and that he was the kindest driver ever :)
