Excellent experience with a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide
5/5

Compared to other safari tours the price from Destiny Explorers seemed reasonable. Our tour guide Noel was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the many wild animals we saw during our safari expedition. Overall everyone in our group of 6 people had a fantastic safari experience.

An incredible experience with a wonderful guide.
5/5

Our tour was an incredible experience. We saw amazing animals, landscapes, and met amazing people. We loved every place we went to. The gems that stand out was Ngorongoro Crater (one of the most stunning places we have ever been to) and to our surprise, the visit to the Lake Eyasi and the Hadzabe tribe. We were able to learn about their culture and see how, despite the pressures of modernization, they continue to follow their old traditions. We even accompanied them on their hunt! Amazing. Our driver, Bonny, was a great resource during the tour. We had many interesting conversations with him as he taught us about the locations we were visiting, various cultures, and our questions. He also took very good care of us during the drive and at each of the lodgings, making sure we had everything we needed. During the drive itself over the sometimes rought terrain, he was well prepared and clearly an expert at taking care of the jeep and we never had any problems with the vehicle (although we did see quite a few!). In short, I would highly recommend both this tour and Destiny Explorers!

5/5

We used Destiny Explorer for our guide/driver during our five day Safari package experience. It was a private tour mother-daughter trip. We covered, Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Highlands, Lake Eyasi and Lake Manyqra. We thoroughly enjoyed the mixed events which included game drives and the walking safaris. The additional cultural experience with the Hadzabe and Tonga tribes completed our unique and memorable 5-day experience in Tanzania. Our driver Bonniface, was the consummate professional: a thoughtful, experienced and knowledgeable driver and guide, he enlightened us not just about the wild mammals in the Safari but also the unique birds in the Savannah and in the Ngorongoro crater. We also had many great conversations with Bonni over meals on the culture and people of Tanzania. Last but not least we appreciated Bonni maintaining the jeep in great working and clean condition; especially when we passed a few vehicles with issues during our 5-day experience.

I highly encourage the Africa experience in Tanzania for everyone, and strongly recommend Bonniface and Destiny Explorer for your trip!! We did a lot of research and this tour operator is one of the most affordable and you will definitely get the bang for your buck.

Compassionate and caretaking
5/5

I'm dreaming of a canoeing safari for a whole year now, so this was something special - but all my expectations were met.

The communication was good from the beginning. Unfortunately the date had to be postponed due to unstable weather, but Issa, the owner of the company, explained everything to me so I felt in good hands.

When finally the day arrived, he and Tom, the guide, picked me up early and we went to Lake Manyara for a game drive. Both, Tom and Issa, are really enthusiastic and funny guys, so we had a great time. When we met other clients spring the game drive, Issa always asked about their safari, he was really interested in all of his clients.

I'm not just interested in seeing the Big Five, so Tom also was looking for other animals. He knew and explained a lot, I appreciated it a lot.

Finally there was the canoeing safari. It was really hot that day but still the two guides managed to show us a hippo. We got life jackets and instructions what to do and not to do, so I felt safe during the whole trip and free to enjoy.

I had a great safari with Issa and Tom and with the guides from the canoeing.

Very professional
4/5

The guide came to the hotel the day before the hike to Check the gear.

7 people accompanied me during the hike and the whole Crew was always very friendly and helpful.

The food was for every meal very delicious and met my vegetarian requirement.

Only negative part is, that i booked 8 days, but was only 7 days ...

Hello Ju,

Was a pleasure having you in Tanzania and take you to the roof top of Africa.
We always strive to deliver the best adventure experience to our clients.

Our professional Mountain guide and crew did their best to make sure to made it to Uhuru Peak. After the discussion with them it's where you decided to descend straight to Moshi although we paid the park for 8 days.

It's happens sometimes after the summit some climbers don't need to continue stay up the mountain and after they confirm to leave then our guides and the mountain crew will be in-charge of taking them down.
We are sorry for anything that was not appropriate on your hand and we will make sure this doesn't happen again to our future.
Thank you so much for booking your Kilimanjaro climb with Destiny Explorers.
Kindest regards,
Issa

Amazing experience, great tour guide
5/5

We went on a 3 day safari. Our absolute highlight was Ngorongoro Crater. Beautiful landscape and lots of animals - lions, elephants, rhinos, hyenas, flamingos, zebras, wilderbeasts and much more. Our tour guide Erasto was full of experience and stories about the wildlife. He was great and an absolute professional. We can absolutely recommend this tour operator.
