Great safari experience, great quality for a great price, totally recommend
We had a great experience during our 4 days safari with Topy Tours. We saw all the Big 5 and so many more like zebras, giraffes, hippos. We were lucky enough to even see a lioness hunting a wildebest right on our first day. In general we saw the animals from so close, we didn't expect that and we loved it. Only the rhino we could only see with binoculars, the rhino doesn't like to be close to people but all ohter animals we could observe closely with our own eyes. Our guide Freddy made sure we have a good time and answered to all our questions. The food was great too, our chef Simba even made fresh bread every day, very delicious. Sleeping in tents where animals could roam around was a bit scary at first but it was completelly safe. The communication before the safari went very smooth and Jackson answered all my questions (and they weren't a few !!!). Great quality for a great price, totally recommend!

Amazing Safari with very good value for money !
We chose to do a private 5 days Safari in Tarangire / Serengeti / Ngorongo, it was an amazing experience! We saw so many animals and our driver was very skilled.
The lodges chosen, the food and the experience was really great.
We had only a small problem of communication in the end but Topy Tour has reacted quickly to solve it.
Overall, we recommend this tour operator!

Customer satisfaction is a high priority
We truly recommend this tour. You get the best value for your money!
I booked the tour directly with Topy Tours from home. The owner Jackson always responded quickly and answered all the questions in advance. One day before the safari started Jackson came by our hostel (kinda out of the city) and gave us a short briefing about the itinerary and answered all questions. Even on the evening before our last day, he came by and suggested another option for our last day. Customer service is a big part of Topy Tours.
We were also completely happy about our driver Lobulu. At all times we felt safe and sound. One our way to Serengeti it started to rain but Lobulu managed the muddy road with ease. While others got stuck. He also has a lot of knowledge about the wildlife and always knew where to spot the animals.
Our cook Guideon made our experience even better. Guideon had not only always a joke to tell, but his food was very delicious. You have to try his self made bread!
Thanks to you all for this lifetime experience!

Great 4 days safari experience
The whole trip has fulfilled my expectations. The communication with the agency went very smoothly, through Jackson on email and whatsapp, he came to our hotel before we left for safari and after we came back to explain everything ( about the schedule and the camps, about our guide and the cook, and other useful info) and to make sure everything was fine. They were very flexible and also arranged for our transport to the airport.
The safari itself was great; we have seen a lot of animals—all the big five—only the rino was quite far away, but enough for me. I expected it to be a bit boring and dull all the time in the car, but the 4 days were entertaining enough and perfect for my taste. Our guide/driver, Freddie, was very nice; he is a great driver, knows a lot about the animals, and is a very friendly and fun person to have around. Each evening after dinner, we would have some nice talks, and he would explain the plan for the next day. Talking about the dinner, the food was AMAZING( home-made bread made there in the camps, pizza, and pasta, just to name a few). Our cook, Simba, and his crew prepared some nice dishes for us, and before each dinner, he came and presented us the menu, that was really nice and added a personal touch. We had breakfast and dinner in the camps, and for lunch, they were walking up early and preparing it for takeout to eat somewhere along the way. The camps where we slept in tents (2 nights) were already set up by the time we got there. To sum it up, I really recommend this safari from Toppy Tours, especially with Simba and Freddie if you are lucky.

It was an awesome experience
We had a great time with Topy tours. Jackson really helped plan the perfect itinerary for us and took personal care to ensure all the details were executed perfectly. We had a good stay at all the lodges and the safari was incredible. The only one point which could have been done better was the stay at Arusha as the hotels there were not very good.

Posted on Oct 4, 2023Hello Rashmi,
Thank you for your great feedback. Topy tours team we are all honored to receive such feedbacks, as we work hard to ensure we provide what we promise. We would also like to point out you concern about the accommodations in Arusha before and after the tour, which are listed as free of charge. These accommodations are of budget and they offer nothing fancy, however they have great services, clean rooms and overall people are nice. So to our future clients, we normally share photos and details concerning these free accommodations and if you would not like them please let us know so we can book accommodation of your choice at own costs.
Regards,
Jackson

Great experience with Topy tour 4-days Safari
We had a great time during the 4-days safari. We could see the big 5!! Although the rhino was a bit far.
Our driver made sure we saw as many animals as possible, and have enough time to take pictures.
It was also nice to meet and share our experiences with other travellers. The food was also good. Kudos to the chef for making fresh bread during camping!
Overall a great experience!!

Unforgettable Safari Trip with an amazing guide!
Our recent safari trip, undertaken by a group of five, was a journey to remember. From start to finish, this adventure exceeded our expectations and introduced us to the wonders of Tanzania's remarkable national parks. We were fortunate to have an exceptional guide, Ali Hassan, and our journey allowed us to witness four of the "Big Five" animals while exploring some incredible destinations.
Our adventure began in Arusha, where we were warmly welcomed and prepared for an unforgettable journey. Our first destination was Tarangire National Park on the first day, and it left us in awe of the diverse wildlife and beautiful landscapes. Our comfortable lodge provided the perfect base to relax after a day of adventure.
On the second day, we found ourselves at the renowned Ngorongoro National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The day was filled with thrilling wildlife encounters and stunning vistas, including a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater. Our guide's extensive knowledge and passion for conservation enhanced our experience as we witnessed lions, elephants, buffalos, and giraffes in their natural habitat.
Our final day was equally captivating as we explored a coffee plantation and reveled in the beauty of a magnificent waterfall. Learning about the local coffee production and tasting freshly brewed coffee was a treat for our senses. The visit to the waterfall provided a refreshing and picturesque end to our safari adventure.
Throughout our journey, our guide's dedication to making our safari special was truly commendable. The game drives were a highlight, offering unforgettable wildlife encounters during their most active times. The evenings spent by the campfire, filled with stories and stargazing, added a magical touch to our adventure.
Our group also had the privilege of engaging with the Maasai community and learning about their traditions, which was a humbling cultural experience. This safari offered the perfect blend of adventure and cultural immersion.
In summary, our safari was a remarkable journey that allowed our group of five to connect with Africa's wilderness. Outstanding guides, incredible wildlife, and comfortable lodgings at each destination made it an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this safari to anyone looking for an adventure that renews your appreciation for nature and the diversity of Africa. It's a trip that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
