Faboulous organization.
The safari was an awsome experience, especially I liked that was very well equipped.
Beautifull fancy lodges with very kind staff who took care of us in every moment.
Everything was very clean and safe.
We felt always very good and our guide Simon did a great job! He explained us a lot about the places and animals, he drove us very safely.
Our private chef Richard prepared us delicious meals with local receipts.
A special thanks also to Jackson, the organizer of the trip.
He was our point of contact for any questions before and during the trip.
He organized extremely well all the logistics, hotels, the Safari and the transfers from airport to hotels and back.

Awesome tour planned
I have nothing but good to say about Topy Tours. Jackson was very prompt to reply to every questions and concerns I had before and during safari. I made a very last moment trip and he quickly created a plan for me for 5 days safari covering Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara and Tarangire. I was traveling as solo female and was concerned about safety but everything was seamless. The safari jeeps were comfortable, tour guides were amazing and proactive to show you as much as wildlife as they can. The campsites and camping equipments were very good.
There was some glitch in my hotel and Jackson quickly helped me to change hotels.
I will highly recommend to book your safari with toot tours.

Topy Tours was the right choice for us
The safari was an unbelievable experience for us. Everything was well organised by Jackson and our guide Freddy did a great job. He was very motivated to make the best out of our visit and we had a lot of fun together. The schedule was still flexible and we were able to choose between different options. We also booked the Waterfall-coffee-and-hot springs tour with Jackson. All guides were friendly and able to give us some knowledge about the surrounding. The food was nice and always enough. We are happy:)

Unique expérience!
My girlfriend and I booked 3 days of excursions with Topy tours (Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Materuni).
These 3 days were amazing and varied! The first two days, accompanied by Assad, our guide, we had the chance to discover two of the most beautiful safaris in Tanzania! Assad was excellent, he knows the parks perfectly and made us go through different roads to avoid the multitude of tourists.
The crater of Ngorongoro is just incredible and full of animals of all kinds.
Finally, on the last day we visited the village of Materuni, accompanied by Manfred and God, a local guide. Really nice, they took us to the incredible waterfall 30 minutes walk from the village. We also shared a delicious and very pleasant meal, quiet perched in the mountains.
If we had to add a small negative comment, we were still very disappointed with the visit of a "Massai village". This is not included in the stay, and has nothing authentic. The inhabitants, after a small dance, brought us into the village, with the sole purpose of robbing us. Very oppressive, they are only after our money, it was not a very pleasant experience.
However, despite this little incident, we still had an incredible experience that we will not soon forget!
We highly recommend!

Posted on Jul 30, 2023Hello Romain,
Thanks for your 5-star feedback on our whole service. However, we would like to address your "Maasai tour" to provide awareness to all our future clients. It is not our first time to get this kind of feedback about this tour and that is why we did not include it in your itinerary. In all our itineraries for future clients, we have mentioned that "Many clients opt against this tour". and the main reason is it looks staged!
So we recommend doing a lot of research and asking for advice before deciding to do this tour.

Amazing experience! 100% recommend - our guide (Ezekiel) and cook (Khamis) were so good
Amazing experience! 100% recommend - our guide (Ezekiel) and cook (Khamis) were such a reason why as they took us on so many great drives to see animals and the food was incredible. The organization worked well too and there were no issues at all. You will not regret doing this!

Honest , prompt in answering all my queries, easy to deal with, professional. Hotels and guides
We met Jackson on our first day in Arusha for our 6 day tour : Serengeti , ngorongoro ngorongoro, tarangire, kilimamjaro day hike and matureni waterfalls and coffe tour. This tour was perfect for us because it included everything we wanted to do in and around Arusha. His service, professionalism and honesty was faultless. The itinerary that he sent me was clear and detailed with photos. I loved the actual itinerary and the way he laid it out.
Jackson even helped us to get a local sim utilising one of his contacts who was equally professional and extremely helpful in setting it up and I’m so grateful for him for enabling us to be connected to the internet all through our stay with a one month great 9gb package for 20,000tsh. We sat down with Jackson and his friend on the first day and had pizza together and we could honestly say that it was one of the highlights of our trip chatting and getting to know those two kind and pleasant Tanzanian young men.
I have to say the highlight for me dealing with jackson was his prompt responses to all my questions about the tour on what’s app before I committed to the tour and equally after. He took care of everything from accomodation, tours, transfers and food all with a 10/10 score.
Even when there was a bit of miscommunication when I asked for an upgrade to a lodge in ngorongoro ngorongoro and Serengeti, he dealt with it extremely professionally and it was sorted out smoothly. His respect , calmness and welcome of us certainly made our experience all the more positive.
If you want to do any tourism in Arusha or surrounds he is defiantly the one.
Regarding the trip itself:
Safari at Serengeti and tarangire was amazing . But note that the trip from Arusha to Serengeti is around 5 hours and the road into the Serengeti park and even for a while after you enter the park is very bumpy and it takes a good hour before you start spotting animals . But then it is amazing and an absolute must once on a life time experience.
Ngorongoro ngorongoro was such an amazing place and it was all the more special because we spotted a rhino close up and running for a good while.
The Kilimanjaro 5 hour climb from the gate at 1800m elevation to mandara hut at 2720m caught us by surprise . It was a little strenuous for us and took 6 hours including lunch break, we had to rush so our companion travellers can catch their 8.20 flight to Zanzibar.
I still loved it though and was very happy to do it . So glad we rented the hiking shoes because they are a must.
Matureni falls were absolutely spectacular and breathtaking. Be prepared to get your shoes very muddy or just rent some gumboots.

Safari of a lifetime!!
Amazing safari!! Very well organised, didn’t have to do a thing ourselves. Guide was very thorough, kind and attentive. Plenty of time to see each national park. We managed to see the migration of animals from Kenya to Tanzania. We also saw several lions, elephants, giraffes etc. Would highly recommend this company.
