Very professional, caring and safe travel agency
We spent 7 days in Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Volcano, Serengeti and Tarangirre
Our driver guide was very professional, kept an eye on our mood, took us to find many animals, and had a very special birthday
Our hotels are very distinctive and the food is fresh and delicious every day.
Tanzania left me a very good impression and a very happy trip.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a great trip and enjoyed seeing the animals, especially the elephants! They truly are magnificent. Your happiness means a lot to us, and we look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon! Safe travels! 😊
A once in a lifetime experience.
We traveled for four days spending two nights in Serengeti, one night near NGORONGORO and one day in Tarangire. The communication to organise our trip was really great and quick. The team answered all our questions made us several offers until we found the perfect route for us. The safari it self was just overwhelming, also because of our great guide, Edward. He took great care of us and made sure we get to see all the different animals. It was our honeymoon but we didn’t communicate it with the team. Anyhow they just knew it and surprised us with a banner on our safari car and we got also surprised in all accommodations we were. The camp in Serengeti was a once in a life time experience. The nights were so amazing hearing all animals outside. If you want to go to Serengeti sleep in the camp! All in all it was the best trip we ever made! Big thanks to the amazing team! We will recommend it to anyone!

Hard working & good communication
Right from the beginning, the whole RO team was very active and responsive in planning the schedules and itinerary. They also considered & accommodated various requests that we made along side the basic plan (eg, type of accommodation, vegetarian food, vehicle modification, interaction with guides, experts etc). They were very prompt in replying to our queries. This helped us to plan things in a better way. Prices were very competitive and the whole RO team was committed to cater to our requirements.
They are definitely a company to go with.
The areas they can improve is to gain more maturity in estimation of timings, road conditions and distances between destinations. Sometimes it becomes too much for the day and excessive rush & stress. They also need to improve their assessment of properties and should make sure that the customer is not made to suffer for the lack of homework & evaluation of camps and properties by RO. The customer should get enough time for a bit of relaxation, peaceful dinners and a bit of leisure.
Definitely recommend RO but make sure that the chosen properties (camps, hotels) are well assessed before you confirm.

We could not be happier. First rate company and experience from the planning to the amazing safari.
Quite simply our experience with Ro Scavenger Safaris was amazing from beginning to end.
I sought quotes from 8 companies for a moderate budget. The dates we were looking at were in mid October which is a good time to visit, a little less expensive yet before the rainy season.
Ro Scavenger had excellent reviews, was the most reasonable and was a local company, which was important to us. And so I began a conversation with Silas who listened to our desires and concerns and planned our 8 day safari. He is knowledgeable and his responses were always prompt and helpful and he modified our original plan to accommodate changes for hotels and to add a night in the north Serengeti to hopefully see the tail end of the migration. A risk but we were lucky. The final itinerary included Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti for 3 nights, and Ngorongoro. We were in three hotels and four tents camps. We loved the tent camps which were quite luxurious, with comfortable beds, and really added to the experience. I was also pleasantly surprised when I realized we were getting a private safari - great value for the price. A much better deal than the one a friend purchased through an overseas tour group with six people per jeep.
The safari more than lived up to our expectations and for this we give thanks and a special shout out to our driver and guide, Michael. Michael went out of his way to ensure we were well looked after and our experience was memorable. He was friendly, knowledgeable and kind. We saw so much and learned so much from him. Eight hours in a range rover simply flew by. During our safari, we saw herds of animals up close, witnessed a lioness chase a warthog, wildebeast migrate across the river and a crocodile drown one.
Finally, even though we were on a moderate budget, the accommodations, hotels and tents, were excellent as was the food, which was usually a buffet. The vehicle was well-maintained and comfortable.
