Solid experience
5/5

What a great experience. We was looked after really well and all of our wants were met. Obed and Moody went the extra mile to make sure we were all happy all of the time. Obed has a lot of knowledge of the Safari and really understood the pace of the day. We went to Selous and Julius Nyerere National Park. Moody's driving skills were great and took us through the bumpy road as smooth as possible. We had a lot of laughs and gained a lot of knowledge with great people. Not only did we learn about Safari, we also learned about Tanzania culture and the way of life.

The river boat cruise along Rafiji River was timed perfectly for sun set. On the game drive we see way more animals than anticipated. We will definitely be using Obag Africa Safari again.

THE BEAUTFULL OF OBAG AFRICA SAFARIES
5/5

Obag African Safaris is the best of tour Company I saw in Tanzania .
I really never see the Company like this.
The Guide (Ngunda) is very good , enough experience and full of explainations about the bush .He is strong , chaming and caring person .
Also he did what he promised before safari ,
Am sure I payed less than I get .
I saw all I wished to see , a lot of animals like Big group of Elephant and Lion as I wished.

I will not finish to explain about Obag but for sure this is my best Company and favourate in Tanzania .

Amazing!
5/5

We were a group of friends that spent a few days with Obed on Safari in Mikumi National Park.
Obed was very flexible and helpful at all times. He and the driver explained a lot of things on the tour and tried their best to make us see as many animals as possible.
We also visited a Maasai Village and a local village.

We really enjoyed our days with Obed!

If we come back in Tanzania we will definitely contact you again!

Thank you so much for all Obed!

Very nice safari with a wonderful guide
4/5

We had a very nice 4-day safari with Obag Safaris. Obeg, our guide, picked us up at the cruise port in Dar es Salaam. We had contacted each other on WhatsApp which was good because we had some trouble finding each other at the port. My husband uses a very big sport walker, so we were glad that we were picked up in a van which was driven by the very capable Katcha (sp??). The Mikumi Lodge was about a 6-hour drive away, and we stopped for a pleasant lunch on the way. Mikumi Lodge isn’t as well-appointed as some that we’ve stayed in at Arusha and the Serengeti, but it was very clean and comfortable and staffed with the loveliest people.

We had two full days of game drives during which Obeg pointed out all of the game and birds in sight. We we’re able to see plenty of zebras, gnus, water buffaloes, antelope, lions, and birds. We really wanted to spot a leopard, but it was not to be. But we did get to see a python! We’d never seen on in the wild before. This guy was about six meters long.

Obeg was very kind, helpful and attentive the whole time. He also handled my husband’s walker in and out of the safari truck multiple times a day which wasn’t easy.

Very friendly, competent, hakuna matata with an eagles eye for finding animals
5/5

We felt always safe and secure. Pickup from the airport and transfer to was perfect. The guide (Gilbert) simply knows everything about the parks and the animals. Especially also about all sorts of birds. He loves his job and he is committed to preserving the beautiful nature of Tanzania. Obed and Gilbert also helped us with any special needs we had. For us this was the very first safari, but they helped us to overcome any fears we had. The jeep is a grand old lady, but perfect for safari. We enjoyed standing in the car, under the hood, safe from the sun, feeling the light breeze and watching for animals. The lodges we stayed in were spatious. beautiful, clean, served good food and helped us relax and prepare for the next day's adventures. We totally recommend!

Friendly, correct and flexible!
4/5

We did a one day safari, which meant many hours on the road (pretty exhausting, nevertheless a great opportunity to experience the towns/rural areas as well as the surrounding nature on the way!) as well as beautiful encounters in the national park, as nature did not disappoint!
The drive from Dar es Salaam was way longer than announced, which leads to the one aspect that could be improved - providing snacks and/or previously communicating that the included lunch ain't enough for what in the end were ~20h altogether would be great!
Other than that the communication regarding the booking etc. was easy and correct, the pick up punctual.
We have felt very safe despite the crazy traffic and we've been making stops whenever we've expressed needing one! A much appreciated flexibility!
The value for money was decent, we'd wish for a bit more input regarding the animals but in the aftermath it seems that our initiative was asked for, sth our tired brains missed - so if you wanna know more - ask! :)
The tour in the park was great, we were being given enough time to enjoy whatever has caught our eye so we've enjoyed every minute of it and it felt very satisfying!
All in all an enriching experience we are thankful for and would recommend!
Thank you for making it possible!
