Superb package and service
6-Day Comfort Safari
The variety of locations and length of experience was just perfect. The accommodation on the Safari was outstanding - we felt truly spoilt, even felt like it could have been our honeymoon.
Communication with Anna and Emma in the Sunset office was excellent thanks.
‘This is our message to Rama after the Safari and shows clearly how we felt:’
“Thank you again for a lifetime of amazing memories. You are such a professional and should be proud of yourself. You managed to be happy first thing every day, dressed impeccably, with the Landcruiser cleaned inside and out. Filled it with fuel at some point. You resolved as if by magic the vehicle problems - horn tooting with every bump, the battery being flat and limped it back into Arusha with it threatening to cut out and with a bolt in the tyre! And all this was outside of what was long long days of driving! And not forgetting the room mate waking you up at 5.30 to help rescue him from being stuck in the mud.
Your driving was calm, always considerate to our comfort and smooth (well, as much as could be but we appreciated the African Massages 🤣).
How you managed to always be in the right place at the right time for us to experience all these amazing wild
Animals - and so up close and personal. Giraffes and Elephants we could almost reach out and touch. Lions - older males, young males and females so relaxed and one male in a tree! An Impala give birth and we witnessed the newborn take her first staggering steps. A Leopard - well, a tail at least 🤣. Rhino! All the big five and lots of birds. That’s to name a few. We have learnt so much from you with your unending knowledge of these animals and much, much more about Tanzanian culture and living.
You are a true credit to Sunset Safaris and I hope they appreciate that and reward you accordingly! “

A very efficient company to deal with who provided and excellent value for money safari.
When we first started to plan a safari for our honeymoon we were a bit overwhelmed by the sheer number of different companies offering what seemed to be very similar packages.
First impressions count for a lot when faced with lots of options. We initially went with Sunset Safaris because they were very prompt with coming up with a full itinerary and rough price guide. The other companies either simply copied and pasted example tours from their websites or took a long time in getting back to us.
Anna was very efficient from the outset, she was excellent at responding quickly and happy to make as many changes as required right up until we departed. We felt reassured by this level of professionalism.
Our trip itself was wonderful. Our vehicle was comfortable (very important as you do spend a lot of time in the car) and Sele, our local guide, was very conscientious when it came to keeping it clean. All of the accommodation was great and exactly what we had been hoping for. Sele was knowledgeable without being overbearing and was happy to stop whenever we asked him to for photos, even if it meant arriving later than planned to scheduled stops. We now realise that safari days are very long hours for the driver, so very much appreciate Sele spending 8 days away from his family with us. He always had a smile on his face and was always on time for every meeting!
Overall we had an amazing 2 week holiday, Sunset Safaris organised the entire trip for us, including finishing the holiday with a few day on Zanzibar - which was also great. We're delighted we chose them. Fantastic value for money too!

Knowledgable tour guide Adam w a PhD background, and 50% of their profit goes towards local charity
Good value for money, excellent tour guide and lovely campsites. The hotels in Arusha is basic but is good enough but u can always pay more for five star accommodation. The company has a charity mission behind it, 50% goes towards local charity for AIDS patient, women w mutilated genitals, orphans and the tribal people. Knowledgable tour guide w PhD background and knows all kinds of wild life in the safari. Our tour guy Adam is a soft gentle man who also do not smoke and very clean. I like this coz I don’t know drivers who always smoke

Very organized, well planned honeymoon
We did the 11 day tour back in november for our honeymoon and we had an amazing time! Booking the tour was very easy, communication was very smooth and the hotels booked were top notch! Loved the hospitality! Our driver Adam took very good care of us. We learned so much from him, was very helpful and went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed the trip till the very last day. Thank you so much for everything. I would book again in the future.

Faultless !
Given the wide choice of safari companies available we were very fortunate to have found and used Sunset Adventures. From the initial email to saying goodbye to our Guide (Sele) everything was faultless.
The initial communications with Emma & Anna were excellent - all queries were clearly and promptly responded to without any 'hard sell' pressures.
We chose the 6 day safari that took us through Tarangire; Lake Manyara; Serengeti and Norongoro.
Sele couldnt have been better, taking us to areas where we eventually spotted all of the Big 5 and all of the lesser known Ugly 5. As part of our trip we took the opportunity to do two additional extra walking trips, well worth doing as the park rangers were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic we learnt so much.
Accommodation wise, we stayed at Marera Valley Lodge; Eileen Trees Inn; Serengeti Wildebeest Camp and Ngorongoro Wild Camp - all faultless, The 2 tented camps were surreal, listening to the wild animals during the night will never be forgotten.
Sele was very receptive to our needs, nothing was too much trouble.
Picking the right safari company is crucial to your enjoyment, we can certainly recommend Sunset Adventure and Sele.

The tour operator was amazing, their communication was clear and they organised everything perfectly
Our experience with Sunset Adventure Safari was simply perfect. From the very first contact everything went smooth. Emma and Anna from te Sunset Adventure Safari team were quick and clear in their responses. They put together a trip for us that we could never have imagined ourselves. And to all our questions and changes and even more questions and even stupid questions, their response was always friendly and down to business.
The trip itself was a dream. The accommodations where we stayed were beautiful (if you have the opportunity to spend the night in a tent: absolutely do it!), the places we visited were breathtaking, the wildlife was impressive, and the bit of bad luck we had with the airline (a suitcase did not come with us on the flight) was solved for us by Sunset Adventure Safari: without us having to worry any further, our suitcase was taken care of.
We would also like to give a special salute to our guide Abrahman. What a fantastic guide he is! He is cheerful, energetic and smart, with an enormous amount of knowledge and a clear love for his profession. We have no idea if you can choose your own guide, but if so, choose Abrahman.
Most incredible experience
we had a wonderful experience with our family. Everything was arranged down to the last detail

Fantastic, flexible and creative
I had the pleasure of experiencing the Sunset Safari with our guide Sele, accompanied by four other adventurers. This unforgettable trip took us to the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater and gave us two unforgettable days in the Serengeti and again in Ngorongoro.
Sele, our dedicated guide, made this trip special. His patience and enthusiasm were infectious, and his excellent command of English helped us fully understand the beauty of nature and wildlife. He tailored our experience perfectly to our interests and needs.
The safari car was also well maintained, and on subsequent days it was spick and span again for a fresh day of adventure.
This trip was truly a fantastic experience that we will never forget. Seeing the majestic Ngorongoro and the endless Serengeti plains will be forever etched in our memories, thanks to Sele and the entire Sunset Safari team. A sincere recommendation for anyone who wants to explore Tanzania in a unique and unforgettable way.
