Forthcoming, time keeping, fun, excellence.
Safari 56 makes everything safari feel great - I've loved all the hiking experiences I've done with them. They are detailed oriented, and nothing is ever forgotten. Loved the experience, and I will go on more hikes and safaris with them.

Amazing Experiences!
Ontime pickup, amazing drivers and guides. The hiking experience is one to die for especially the scheduled groups.

A spellbinding experience made by the experts on the Safari team
I booked Safari 56 after my Tanzanian friend saw the strong endorsement on their Facebook page. I needed to do a 3 day safari in between my stints in Dar and in Zanzibar. I wasn’t disappointed. I had a briefing by Allen and Kenneth the day before and then was picked up by Habib the morning afterwards. We spent a great day driving through Ngorogoro, then to Serengeti and then back through Ngorogoro. Our guide Habib was excellent. He was invariably the most keen sighted and first on the scene for a special moment. I told him I dreamt of seeing a leopard and he duly found two for me that very day. One on a rock and another up a tree with a gazelle as prey. Habib experienced numerous difficulties outride his control during the trip (a flat tire, getting stuck in a muddy pothole and finally a broken brake) but was basically unflappable throughout. He combined all the qualities you need in a good teacher or guide, both deep knowledge of his craft (in this case the flora and fauna of Tanzania) - and trust me, we all bombarded him with questions constantly! But also, you need passion, and it was clear how much Habib loves the animals and treasures his ability to show people the pride of Tanzania. It was his first safari since lockdown and he told us how much it meant to him to be out there again. We saw all the Big Five even a rhinoceros albeit at some distance out. But it was the guide and his cook Peter - who cooked gourmet food under the most challenging conditions - who really made the trip great. The whole experience was very positive. And most importantly it is a fraction of the price of some other safaris I was quoted. I would recommend Safari56 unreservedly. Chris

The best safari organizers in Tanzania
I can totally recommend Safari 56 and Akida personally for organizing any safari in Tanzania. Thanks to Akida our 3 days safari in Mikumi park was an unforgettable experience. Everything was so well planned that all we had to do is just enjoy every day! If I ever go back to Tanzania, I wouldn’t trust the organization of safari to anyone else but Akida and his team!
Thank you one more time and warmest greetings from Russia.

Getaways from the city’s hustle and bustle!
I’ve travelled with Safari56 twice and both times the experience surpassed my expectations.
Akida puts his heart into organizing each tour and makes it a point to give it a personal touch. He is constantly on the look for areas of improvement and this comes out in his subsequent trips. Whether you have dietary preferences or traveling with someone at extremes of age, Akida will not only have you covered but also well entertained.
Not to forget, he won’t let you miss out on an experience. You’ll be pushed such that you’ll regret if you missed out.
Definitely recommend!

Amazing tour, awesome people, beautiful experience and ethical and honest business owner.
I booked my safari only a few days before. They were able to accommodate us on short notice, and everyone I encountered was kind and friendly. The car was a newer car with a reclining back seat for the 2 hour drive to to the park. We were given food and water along the way. Our guide never left us expect for sleeping. Everything went according to plan. Except my payment, I did a bank transfer and my bank really messed up in sending the money. So I made a second payment on my credit card to rightfully pay for the safari...well my bank transfer arrived 90 days later to Safari 56 and the owner quickly contacted me and transferred the money back to me!! Its always great to know there are ethical businesses

Awesomeness!!! Safari56 knows how to make each trip eventful and fun for everyone
I have used Safari56 numerous times for other hikes. The most recent one to Lushoto.
Pre travel they are great at keeping you updated logistics as well as things you might need for the trip. Building up the anticipation.
I especially enjoy that they know how to keep time and are specific about picking up points and security.
The Lushoto trip was a great example of good organisation and mobilization.
Safari56 true talent lies in turning groups of random strangers into friends. Fun events that keeps everyone engaged and the hikes are done at each persona pace so you don't feel pressured to keep up.
