Made my first safari trip unforgettable!
5/5

Super satisfied with Serengeti Smile’s service and hospitality! Very flexible and accommodating with our requests. Saw the big 5 during my first safari trip, and migration! Tour guide knows all the spots! Would only go with this tour company for our next Tanzania safari trips!

An Excellent Choice Highly Recommend
5/5

We contacted about 30 local tour operators and ultimately chose Serengeti Smile, which proved to be an excellent decision. During the initial communication, we received professional advice and prompt, positive responses. Throughout the trip, the guide Deo was highly responsible and skilled at spotting animals, allowing us to see many wildlife species while providing detailed explanations. We also encountered several Serengeti Smile vehicles along the way, indicating their extensive fleet and experienced guides. Highly recommended as a local tour operator.

Professional and considerate
5/5

They provided quote based on our customized itinerary and break down detail of it, which is trustworthy. Also have Kenya partner so that we wouldn’t have to worry about the boarder transport. Our guide Deo was very professional, considerate and friendly. He could find all kinds of animals and drive us to the best place for photos. Saw all potential activities of animals of the season, nothing to regret for the trip!

amazing safari experiences
5/5

This safari experiences was amazing. I’d like to thank for our guide, PIUS. He was very kind, his knowledge and experience are excellent. In this 5 days, we were able to see the big 5s. In addition, we had several chances to see lions and leopards. This was outstanding.
We recommend it to everyone who has an interest in safari.

We saw all the animals we wanted to see! Great safari tour!
5/5

My husband and I enjoyed our 5 days safari tour. The destinations were Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, Ndutu and Lake Manyara National Park.
Serengeti National Park was not included.
Our wonderful guide, Pius, found all the BIG 5 (lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo, and elephant).
Thanks Pius for a safe and exciting trip.

The best operator there is!
5/5

The overall experience was everything we hoped for and so much more. It was very well organised and an experience we will cherish for a long time!

Booking process & communications:
Throughout the entire process, the response rate was very fast. Furthermore, all requests for individual adjustments were picked up immediately.
Also, the pick up at JRO airport went seamless, despite arriving at 2.30am on January 1st. Moreover, all accommodations were booked in advance and everyone was prepared for our stay. Overall, the organization of the trip was extremely well done.

Tour & guide:
Starting our tour at the Mataruni waterfalls including roasting our own coffee and enjoying delicious local food was a wonderful experience with two highly professional guides.

The Safari in the Tarangire NP, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, and Lake Manyara were truly incredible. Our highly skilled guide located all the animals (lions, elephants, cheetahs, rhinos and many more) and made sure we got the best view all the time. Thank you very much Libe!

Another highlight was the hot air balloon ride, watching the Serengeti from the sky during sunrise. A truly amazing experience. Despite being operated by a third party provider, the organization by Serengeti Smile was seamless.

Overall, we really enjoyed our Safari with Serengeti Smile. Assante San for the incredible trip! We would definitely book again.

Champion was really polite and know everything about the animals.
5/5

When we arrived our tourguide (Champion) waited for us. We give every day fresh water and cola in the clean car. The 3 days programm was incredible interesting and exhausted as well, we saw a lot and we have luck with Champion!
He told lot of interesting thing from the animals. So we highly recommended him. My 10 years old son was with us and he paid attention for him although. He gave telescope as well. It was a big help.

Everything was fine. We were on a 3-day safari. The sequence of programs was good, the accommodation was great and our guide was great (detailed above) (his name is Champion). We made the reservation with them via email and whatsapp. Real good value for money!

Good value private tour for a family of five
4/5

We went on a 4-Day Tarangire, south Serengeti & Ngorongoro safari. We saw the big five and more. The amount of elephants in Tarangire was truly amazing.
We loved it. Maybe we should have added a day, to be able to cover central Serengeti, if we were to do anything differently.
