Simply Amazing!
We booked our Safari trip with a Singapore tour operator and Shadow of Africa is the African partner tour operator.
Both our Kenya and Tanzania safaris were simply amazing and beyond expectations. Everything was almost perfect. The lodgings, the food, game drives and the spectacular wildebeest crossings were fantastic and better that we could expect !!
We were lucky to view all big 5, many wildlife and the wonderful wildebeests and zebras crossing Masai Mara river. Our guides, Amos at Kenya and Loma at Tanzania were very knowledgable, kind, friendly and professional. The lodgings and meals were also decent.
Thank you, Shadows of Africa for providing a wonderful, safe experience and helped us to realise our dream holiday. All the best!
Safe and wonderful!
This is a review written for our wonderful guide, Dickson.
My family and I value safety before all things. Dickson was one of the safest drivers we had ever encountered. He always drove carefully and paid extra attention to my mum who had a bad back. He also made sure the car was safe to drive at all times. Our car never broke down during our journey and it saved us a lot of time and trouble.
Dickson was also highly knowledgeable about animals. He was always able to explain the interesting facts about the animals to us, which made our trip a lot more insightful. He was experienced in finding the animals and we were able to see a great deal.
We also appreciate Dickson’s politeness and kindness (he brought my power bank which I forgot in the car to our hotel the day after we said goodbye and even gave us a lift to the town centre to run some errands). We really enjoyed our safari trip with Dickson from Shadows of Africa and we won’t hesitate to recommend our guide and his company to anyone who intends to go on a safe and enjoyable safari trip.

Amazing trip !!!
Our Safari was amazing !! Everything was perfect. The lodging, the food, all the organization !!! It was fantastic and better that we could expect !!
Also, we were lucky and we saw all the famous animals and even more. Our guide was very kind and profesionnal, funny and friendly !!! The lodging and the food, we were like kings...
Thank you, Shadows of Africa, for all your organization. It's a great company. They offer a great service to their clients, and good communications to make the planning as perfect as they can to fillfull ours expectations.
They helped us a lot to realize a dream trip, and we appreciated very much. That worth the cost.
Can't imagine anyone doing it better than Shadows of Africa
From the start of communications (about 6 months before we left on a two-week trip to Tanzania) to the busy weeks just before we left, to everything that we experienced while we were there, and the follow-up afterward, Shadows of Africa exceeded our expectations and then some. We bounced all over the country while we were there, did the normal safari things up north in addition to some very off-the-beaten-path locations elsewhere, and everything was done and handled in a top-notch manner. Our rep (Jake) and our tour guide (Fred) were consummate professionals and we couldn't have asked for any better. We're going back next year, and we're working with Shadows of Africa, period.

Simply Amazing!!!!!
Shadows exceeded all expectations. Our guide Edwin was amazing, cautious & adventurous at the same time. Very keen eye & sense of where to be & when - we saw and experienced much, much more than we expected, the Big 5, a Masai village, Tented Camp experience was incredible. All lodging, food & service were excellent. Shadows was very responsive & all the logistics worked like clockwork. Highly recommend Shadows for this hopefully more than once in a lifetime experience.
Excellent trip
Went with my wife and we really had a good time. We were able to see all the big five. The guide was very friendly.

Couldn't have been better
We took a three day safari in Tanzania and everything went as well as it could go. Starting, before the trip, with the affordable prices, the flexibility in designing a program fitted to our interests and the very detailed information and directions or preparing the trip. Once in Arusha, we found a very warm reception. Natasha, the owner, met us twice (both before and after the safari). The safari itself was perfect, exactly as planned. Additionally, Natasha helped one of us with an unexpected issue, fully unrelated to the safari (an entrance visa to the UAE) in a very efficient way, which resulted in substantial savings. I wholeheartedly recommend Shadows of Africa.

Could not be better
I went alone with my teenage son and had the most wonderful experience. From the beginning of the booking process all the way to the last detail, Shadows of Africa managed all in a very serious and professional manner. It was my first but definitely not last safari thanks to the outstanding job of the company.
The safari could not be better, we saw more than we ever expected and answered felt safe and taking care of. Thanks to all the team both in the USA and in Tanzania

Nothing but praise for Shadows of Africa
I have nothing but praise for Shadows of Africa. Our safari with Shadows of Africa was flawlessly planned and executed. In all respects, it surpassed our high expectations.
Credit for the success of our safari must go to the capable professionals that planned and conducted our tour of Tanzania. Jake and Stacy answered our emails promptly, asked the right questions, and assembled an itinerary that conformed to all of our requests. The accommodations they booked took us from beautiful lodges and deluxe rooms to tented camps without a glitch or disappointment. Our meals were good, and often excellent. We received excellent service, which was usually delivered with a smile. All of our nights were delightful. We savored magical, panoramic views and intimate wildlife encounters while enjoying the amenities of modern life.
Our Shadows tour guide, Bashiru, was exceptional. He planned our game drives and used his remarkable talents to provide us with magnificent wildlife viewing. By working hard and remaining personable throughout the many hours we spent together, Bashiru allowed us to enjoy every moment of our safari to the fullest extent possible.
I will always feel indebted to Shadows of Africa for giving us 10 spectacular days in Tanzania, and I am happy to recommend Shadows of Africa to those who read this post. They earned my high praise.
