Wonderful honey moon safari experience
We have a really good time with Serengeti Smile. We especially appreciate our sales Erick and our guide Champion. For the initial communications, Erick is really responsive and professional. He answers all of our questions with good knowledge. For the Safari itself, we can see that Champion gone the extra mile for us to see more species and get closer. He is also professional with the animals and can share with us many interesting animal habits. Although there’s some unexpected situations with the hotel, Serengeti Smile helped us dedicatedly with that issue. We overall had a really good time.

Very professional sales and guide. A very memorable honey Moon.
1. Excellent sales Erick. He is the most professional and patient among all the operators we contacted. Always respond quickly and politely.
2. Excellent guide Champion. He has much knowledge of animals and is willing to help us catch a nearer photo of the animals. Also he is patient about finding them, we go back to lodges until sun goes down.

My smile never left throughout the trip with Serengeti Smile
Throughout the tour of Serengeti and Ngorongoro, guides Zakaria and Dominic were dedicated and friendly, and I especially enjoyed the detailed information about animals and culture. It was an unforgettable trip.

Tour with them was the best thing I've done this year!
Our tour guides were professional, experienced, kind and cool! They didn't think of themselves but always cared and helped clients. During 4 days of tour, they tried their best to give us chance to see as many animals as we can. Thank you for Zakaria and Dominic. You guys were best ever ;)
Besides guides, I also want to recommend Serengeti Smile mainly because it is so easy to communicate with them. When I either send mail or whatsapp message, I could get reply very quickly. It didn't take one day even though we are in different time zone!
And they were so proffesional about everything, and most of all, they are always willing to help us. As a foreigner, and a traveller, I really appreciated to their attitude! I am so moved.
Thanks to Serengeti Smile, my husband and I had a perfect, unforgettable honeymoon. Thanks!

Champion of Tour Guides
Excellent tour with the Champion of Safari Tour Guides. Champion was the Best!!!
Knowledgeable, focused, polite, great communicator, and all around great person are just a few words that describe this awesome tour guide. He spotted animals well before we saw them. He made sure we saw all the Big Five and most were spotted within the first 2 days of our 5 Day tour.
Serengeti Smiles is the tour company to go with and Champion is the tour guide to ask for!!!
Champion works very hard to get you great pictures and views
We enjoyed the safari very much, great weather, nice accommodations and food, and Champion was a very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. Appreciate that every seat had its own charging plug. Plenty of food and drink...great time. Thank you.

A fantastic honeymoon Safari
Highly recommend Serengeti Smile, they have been extremely adaptable to our requested wants for this holiday. The safari in Tanzania has been out of this world, and would recommend going just before the high season. Our safari Guide and vehicle were fantastic, and feel incredibly lucky to have seen more wildlife than imaginable.

Honeymoon: Easy organisation, good flexibility of itinerary/budget, excellent safari.
6 nights/7 days safari: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater.
Overall a fantastic safari. May was a good time of year: the rains had just finished, the hotels were quiet and there were fewer vehicles in the parks/around animals than during peak season.
Albert at Serengeti Smile was very happy to cater for our fussy requests, chopping and changing plans, hotels and flights to suit our exact wishes for our honeymoon.
We had a great guide, Zach, who was friendly, knowledgeable and a good man. We enjoyed learning about the animals and parks, but also the Tanzanian people and Kiswahili language, from him. He was a very good driver and keen to show us the best that Tanzanian Safari had to offer - we saw all of the big five, easily, thanks to him.
We changed the lodges to suit our budget. Marera Valley Lodge (3* - Tarangire/Lake Manyara) was good, with friendly staff, an intimate atmosphere and a good pool. Meliá Hotel (5* - Serengeti) was superb - the staff were fantastic and the food was delicious. But, the location would have been better suited for other times of year during the migration: ask your operators when is best. Serena Hotel (4* - Ngorongoro) was quite tired and the front of house staff were less friendly. The staff in the bars/restaurants were brilliant, though, with good evening activities - Masai music and acrobatics.
We explored a lot of Tanzania in a short period of time and it seemed to be a beautiful country with friendly people and a lot to offer. It was less touristy than Kenya, but the safari was just as good. I would recommend it highly as an East African experience and Serengeti Smile seemed a good company to use.
