A truly unforgettable experience!! 🤩
5/5

The safari tour organized by Sunset Adventure is by far one of the best and most exciting experiences we have ever had!
We knew it would be a fun and unique trip, but our expectations were definitely exceeded.
The national parks we visited were Arusha NP, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, while the last day we visited the villages of 2 local indigenous tribes near Lake Eyasi.
Our guide MARK was THE BEST!!! 😃 You can tell he loves his job and puts a lot of passion in what he does. He was always perfectly on time, very kind, respectful, helpful, patient, friendly and ready to answer all of our questions. He gave us lots of information on the surroundings, the wildlife, the animals and their habits, local culture and fun facts on everything we were seeing. He's an expert guide and he could spot animals from miles away, to then drive us really close in order to observe them at just a few meters' distance. At each sighting Mark knew exactly where to stop so we could get the best view, knowing in which directions the animals would move: they would often walk right towards us and come really really close to our vehicle!
Mark really did his best to find and show us all the wildlife we were wishing to see, and he definitely succeeded! We never would have expected to see all of the following animals, and almost all of them were really close up 🤩😍😃: lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, buffalos, hyenas, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos, warthogs, jackals, vultures, eagles, wild cats, mongoose, ostriches, numerous species of antilopes and gazzelles, waterbucks, flamingoes, many types of exotic birds, baboons, many species of monkeys, wildebeests, etc.
Many of the animals had babies or cubs, and the most touching and exciting sighting of all was a mother cheetah who had just killed an antilope and was letting her little cub eat it 😍
The vehicle was fully equipped with a pop-up roof, water bottles, charging sockets, radio communication, books for wildlife identification, many pockets, 2 spare tires (one of which we used) and really fun to ride on.
All the lodges we stayed in were really nice and comfortable, and the 3 nights we spent in the tented camps in the national parks were thrilling, with the nocturnal wildlife noises adding to the excitement. Each day we were given breakfast, an abundant pack lunch and dinner.
Overall we had an awesome time and we're extremely satisfied. We just left and we're already missing everything!
We highly recommend Sunset Adventure Safari, you won't be disappointed 👍🏻

Sunset Adventure Safari - deserves its top rating!
We, a group of four, thoroughly enjoyed our 14-day Northern Parks safari tour in Tanzania combined with a holiday on Zanzibar Island.
From the moment we arrived, we were cared for and watched over for our every need.
Everything was well organized, communication was easy: Emma and Anna promptly answered all our questions via email and WhatsApp.
I cannot say enough about our experience with the company.
Special shout out to our guide, Sele! One of the best!! We saw everything we expected to see, including the Big Five and much more thanks to Sele.
We enjoyed his company very much. He was very professional and knowledgeable, a careful driver.
Friendly and calm, with a great sense of humor, very sociable, always smiling. He saw the savannah well and found animals and birds that we would never have noticed.
In the morning the car was always clean and ready to go. He even stayed at the airport to ensure we were on our way to Zanzibar.
The accommodations were all fabulous and the food was great. Drinking water was always provided both by the driver and in the lodges. Our favorites - Heart and Soul Lodge and Ngorongoro Wild Camp. We wish to stay a little longer!
The transfer from Arusha to Zanzibar was also well organized. Dhaw Resort resort is small and cozy, very clean, and right on the beach so we could enjoy the ocean view from the bar :). This was a great place for us to relax before long flights home.
Thank you to the entire Sunset Adventure staff that made our safari an experience of a lifetime!!

A Safari tour we will never forget!
5/5

We had an amazing experience! Our tour guide was full of knowledge about the animals, nature and culture. Everything was well organised and we could come with preferences about when to start in the morning, which was convenient.

Great Safari Family Experience
5/5

Our family of six (kids ranging from ages 10 to 17) and my wife's parents had a wonderful experience with Sunset. Our guides, Sele and Adam, did an excellent job delivering the trip of a lifetime while balancing the various needs of our family as we visited the north parks of Tanzania! They even arranged, in response to our very last minute request, for us to attend a local church service on Sunday morning. The wildlife and natural places were amazing and our experiences with the local culture were rewarding.

Amazing family safari
5/5

It was our first safari as family in Africa so we really wanted everything to be well arranged. From the first moment we started communicating with Sunset we felt like we were in safe hands. Emma answered all questions (and we had a lot :-). Also she helped us to find the right safari itinerary for our children who don't like to sit in the car all day. We needed some other activities as well, like a bike tour. The safari was well organised, the lodges were all amazing. Especially Hear & Soul Lodge. The kids loved swimming there in the afternoon. Our guide Adam took good care of us. Every day we discussed our schedule, he was very flexible. We want to thank the entire Sunset team for a great safari. Me, my wife and kids will never forget!

5/5

I don’t even know where to start!
Every single part of our contact with Sunset has been amazing.
Nothing was too much trouble for Emma and Anna (despite my many questions!) and our safari was perfectly designed to meet our needs. We had told the team it was our honeymoon and we got such lovely treatment (and room decor!) at each lodge/camp because of this.
Our tour guide Rama was WONDERFUL. He was so much fun to be around, kind, caring and SO knowledgeable. He was able to spot things from miles away and I swear he has super powers! He made my dreams come true finding not 1 but 2 leopards in the Serengeti! He really is an asset to Sunset. Asante sana Rama!

Each day was as memorable as the last and each location so different.

We can’t wait to book our next adventure with the sunset team. And wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to all our friends & family.

Asante sana
This is baadaye not kwaheri!!

Great wildlife experience in Tansania
5/5

We booked a 6 day Safari including Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu and Ngorngoro. Our guide Sele was great company and more than fulfilled our expectations of the Safari.
Everything was perfectly organised and we were able to see the great migration in Ndutu, and the abundant wildlife in the Serengeti and Ngoro-Ngoro with lions, cheetahs, buffaloes, giraffes, hippos, rhinos. Definitely highly recommended.

5/5

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! “
