Excellent safari trip!!
Me and my boyfriend took a 7 day safari trip and we were more than happy to have booked our trip with Savannah Explorer! The agency sent a detailed itenerary, explaining places we were going to visit and locations. They were responsible and punctual!
On the other hand, our guide Ismail was the best. He was patient with us, explained a lot about african culture, had very deep knowledge about wildlife animals and answered all of our questions. Ismail is also really passionate about finding animals in the parks, once he had a hint he would follow persistently until found! What we also loved about him is that he was a very careful driver, making sure we felt comfortable in the bumpy roads of Tanzania.
The tour itself is amazing, going through 4 national parks we had the chance to see the Big 5 amongst many other animals. We were happy also money wise. The places we stayed were all really great sorrounded with amazing nature, the best and unique experience was staying in the Serengeti Kifaru tents in the heart of Serengeti park. Hearing animals while being inside the tent was exciting!
In general this was an excellent experience, the wildlife is amazing to see but how you experience it depends a lot on your tour guide. And I would definitely recommend to choose Ismail as a guide from Savannah Explorer!

Incredible experience with a fantastic guide, Isaac!
We had the chance of making a Safari tour with Isaac, fully fluent Italian speaker and super nice and Gentle. He has spent Hours and Hours in deeply describing su the nature and the animals. Isaac has gone in “secret places” to find hidden animals, extremely good experience!

Adventure and emotions in Tanzania
We spent a week with Suma, from Savannah Explorer, who accompanied us to the most famous parks in Tanzania: Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Manyara, and the famous Serengeti. Every day was a discovery, nature, smiling people, the boundless prairies, the muddy streets of the villages, the Maasai tribes and above all the animals, from the funniest to the most elegant, those always seen only on TV, caught in their home , so real and majestic. A unique experience. We found the organization excellent and our guide Suma, friendly and helpful, relaxed even on the most impassable roads, gave us great peace of mind. We felt pampered and always safe. We left Tanzania with tears in our eyes

Samwel Mangulai ~ An EXCEPTIONAL GUIDE!
We had only a few days on Safari in Tanzania, and hoped to witness sightings of the Wildebeest Migration. Samwel’s knowledge and expertise WOWED us. We were able to get up close and personal with a number of spectacular Wildebeest encounters. One had thousands of them running right alongside and crossing behind our vehicle. We also got fabulous close sightings of giraffe, lions, hippos, water buffalo, cheetahs, zebras, crocodiles and many beautiful and colorful birds. These included: Grey Crowned Crane, Maribou Stork, Secretary Bird, Superb Starling, Ostrich, Lilac Breasted Roller, African Fish Eagle, and Kori Bustard among them.
Samwel was able to give us great information on all of the animals we were so fortunate to see…His ability as an experienced guide allowed it to happen! Thank you, Samwel, for an EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME!!! Your kindness, professionalism, courtesy, and knowledge will forever be remembered and cherished!

A knowledgeable and friendly person
I joined a 4-night, 5-day safari tour covering Tanzania's Ngorongoro National Park and Serengeti National Park. Our driver and tour guide was a man named Elisha. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the various animal species and their behaviors, and he skillfully exchanged information with other drivers to guide us to different locations. Thanks to him, we were able to see as many as 30 different species over four days, including lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, jackals, gazelles, and baboons. The hotels we stayed at were also wonderful, especially the Meliá Serengeti Lodge, where the food, service, rooms, and cleanliness were all top-notch.

Unforgettable safari with Elisha!
Our recent trip to Tanzania was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the impeccable service and guidance provided by Elisha. From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport, Elisha was there to greet us with a sign bearing our name, making us feel welcomed and at ease.
**Efficient Use of Time and Cultural Insights**
On the first day, we efficiently traveled to Karatu, maximizing our time from the get-go. During the journey, Elisha shared fascinating insights about Tanzanian towns and culture, enriching our experience beyond just sightseeing.
**Exciting Wildlife Encounters**
Our second day took us through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area en route to the Serengeti. We were thrilled to see giraffes up close, a truly exhilarating experience. Elisha offered invaluable advice at a roadside shop, suggesting we avoid purchasing items at higher prices elsewhere.
At the Ngorongoro gate, we purchased an animal checklist, which became a cherished souvenir. It allowed us to track the animals we saw, learning their names in both English and Swahili. This added an educational layer to our adventure.
**Serengeti Wonders and Balloon Safari**
Entering the Serengeti, we were immediately greeted by the sight of two majestic male lions. This was just the beginning; we also encountered cheetahs, hippos, elephants, zebras, and leopards, each sighting more awe-inspiring than the last.
The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the early morning balloon ride. The serene dawn over the savannah, with gazelles and giraffes gracefully moving below, was breathtaking. Viewing the landscape and wildlife from above was a unique and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Serengeti. The tour was organized through a company called Miracle Experience. Their professionalism was evident from the pilot's thorough and engaging demonstration, ensuring we felt safe and informed throughout the journey.
**A Memorable Guide**
Most importantly, Elisha, our tour guide, made this journey truly special. His profound knowledge of wildlife, personal stories, and insights into safari vehicles enriched our understanding and appreciation of Tanzania. We look forward to returning and would undoubtedly request Elisha as our guide again.
This trip was a perfect blend of adventure, education, and relaxation, all thanks to the exceptional service and experiences provided.
