ASK FOR GERRY! HE’S AWESOME! HE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND AND MADE THIS AN AWESOME TRIP OF A LIFETIME!
There were so many Safari options to choose from but I’m sure this one is absolutely one of the best! Not only did we see some of the most amazing animals on the planet and some of the most beautiful landscapes, the people were what really made the trip for us. Our tour guide, Gerry, was phenomenal! He was extremely informative and did everything in his power to go above and beyond in every single aspect. I highly recommend Savannah Explorers and highly recommend you ask for him to be your tour guide! We feel very blessed and are going back home with our hearts and minds full of some awesome memories. Special shout out to Albert in the sales office also!

Professional and knowledgeable team
Brighton helped us plan our dream tour through listening to our wishes and providing great recommendations. We went for a private personalised trip combining safari, a day-trip hiking Kilimanjaro, and local tours of Arusha and Moshi. Our tour guide, Nickson, was extremely knowledgable, friendly and overall a great guide. We compared several different safari providers, and Savannah provided the best value for money in our view. Would highly recommend.

Exceeded expectations.
We loved the personal service we received from Savannah Explorers. Everything went off exactly as planned and our guide was excellent and so knowledgeable about wildlife and the geography of the Serengeti, the Ngorogoro Crater, the Lake Manyara and the the Tarangire Reserves.

Savannah Explorers as organiser as well as its tour guides did more than an excellent job.
Because of Corona we had 3 years time to prepare our once-a-life tour across the Tanzania National Parks, and Albert from sales depratment at Savannah Explorers was a very helpful partner in this. We decided to make a private tour - only my wife and me, guided now by Novatus, who was very well-versed (with respect to animals, places, routes and driving), and supported by the translator James who helped my wife to understand. We were able to react flexibly to all situations during the 12 day safari across the Tarangire, Serengeti (West, Nord, Central), Ngorongoro and Arusha NP. This also includes the change (for free!) from visiting a second time Trangire NP into Arusha NP - we had to "fill up" an additional day (comp. to our plan) because of a postponement by the airline. And in combination with them, Savannah Explorers had changed also the accommodation for 2 night into a lyxary lodge - even for free. Thanks a lot!
By the way, the prize of this adventure was not low (airfare had to be added) - but in comparison to booking with a German travel agency, SE won by far.
We experienced spectacular "face-to-face" encounters to all kind of game - e. g. 5 m close to a lion family guzzling a warthog. And my dream of watching the river crossing by the huge herds of wildebeasts became reality - thanks planning 2 overnight stays at the Mara river, actually several times.
It was not only the encounter with the animals, but also viewing the landscapes - from dry veld (Serengeti) via crater form (Ngorongoro) to jungle (Arusha NP) what excited us, day by day anew. And finally, all the accommodations, adapted to the respective areas, chossen by Savannah Explorers enthused us.
It is our deeply recommended tip to book a private safari with Savannah Explorers directly.

The Perfect Host!
Right from the start we knew we were in good hands when Savannah Explorers enthusiastically prepared an itinerary for us and sent us a web link of our bespoke tour of North Tanzania that showed us the details of our itinerary including the hotels, lodges and campsites we would be staying at and daily activities. They were always on hand to answer our questions and accommodate any changes we needed to make.
We spent a total of 11 nights exploring Arusha, Karatu, Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro, central and north Serengeti and Lake Natron with our guide Modi who is hands down the best tour guide ever. We were especially struck by Modi’s knowledge of Tanzania; its peoples, culture flora and fauna and his respect and thoughtful consideration of us, other tour drivers and of the environment and wildlife itself.
Tanzanian food and hospitality is world class and I highly recommend both visiting this country and letting Savannah Explorers host you.
