5-day safari tour
We had a smooth 5-day safari trip around the main Tanzanian national parks. Issa is always available for support via what’s app and by e-mail, and the communication is efficient. He managed to organise the trip according to our wishes and necessities, with a high degree of flexibility. The guide, Peter, is a dedicated young professional driver who did its best to accomplish our wishes. We appreciated most of the accommodations, especially the ones in the Serengeti national park. We highly recommend a safari with Destiny if you wish to explore the Tanzanian nature!

Great service and wonderful experience
We had a wonderful safari with our experienced guide, Gilbert. We managed to see all the animals, including big cats. Gilbert was very helpful and we enjoyed his company.
Thank you!

Awesome experience with an excellent driver
Awesome experience! Anaeli has been fantastic! We had 4 days (3 nights) safari in all the 4 parks and the driver (Anaeli) has been fantastic! We have seen all the big 5, thanks to good luck but also thanks to a very experienced guide! Moreover, Issa has been amazing in setting up the Safari, excellent communication!

Excellent local tour operator - Tom is the most knowlegable and funny person - unforgettable memory
I am very glad that we have chosen Destiny Explorers for our 5 days / 4 nights Safari in Northern Tanzania. It is a local business which was relevant for our decision. Communication was great, Issa answered all our questions in advance and we totally got what we paid for - and so much more.
The organization was easy, the tour wisely chosen and the accomondation Issa chose were all great - friendly staff, very clean and good food & company.
Tom, our guide for the five days was very knowledgable with perfect English and open-minded - we were such a good match right from the beginning and couldn't have hoped for more! He just knows everything about nature, culture and animals and all there is to know in the National Parks and we have had many good conversations and laughter; Tom just never got tired of our million questions! He is also an excellent driver and we never felt unsafe or anything in the car. We have had the most fascinating, interesting and funny days on our safari thanks to Tom!

Everything was perfect!
The experience was excellent from start to finish. We did a 6-day safari, with "game drives" every day. Our driver and guide were amazing, doing everything possible to help us see as many animals as possible, and in the best way. We opted for the MidRange package, and everything was very good. The food was good, and every day the hotels prepared our lunch in individual kits, even for us vegetarians, there were good options. The hotels also exceeded our expectations. We paid $1,450 per person, plus a $40 fee for the advance deposit transfer. It is definitely a company you can trust.

Beautiful safari experience
Beautiful safari experience in a wonderful land. Excellent guide, the only thing to improve is the fact that the lodges indicated in the guide have been changed, without informing us. For the rest we recommend everything!

Allen was the best
We had a nice time in this safari have seen all of the animals, some of them have been sleeping. The Serengeti was amazing and if i would a safari again i would stay 4 nights in Serengeti. The jeep was really old and i can understand that it is not easy to have new ones, but this particular one was really bad! All the drivers drive like crazy through the area as the distances are really too long. The owner Issa is a nice young fellow who knows the business in and out!!!

My first safari couldn't have been more perfect
It had always been a dream of mine, since childhood, to go on a safari in Africa, and I had the opportunity to do so in July 2024. We planned our safari for the months when the wildebeest migration takes place, and it was perfect from beginning to end. When we first contacted Destiny, we were looking for a 6-day mid-range private safari for 4 people, and the company adapted exactly to our needs with great value for money. The communication with Issa was excellent—always flexible, responding quickly, and being honest about everything. Our driver, Erastu, was the ultimate expert; he knew exactly where the animals were, and he was wonderful with us—always friendly, cheerful, and accommodating.
Thank you, Destiny and Erastu, for making our dream come true and exceeding our expectations. We will definitely return and go on another safari with Erastu, but this time all the way to Lake Mara to see the wildebeest crossing the water.

Excellent
We had an amazing experience with Destiny Explorer.
We choosed them for a 7days Safari and for trekking on Mt. Meru and couldn’t be happier of our choice.
Issa organized everything for us taking into account all our requests. Communication with him has been fluid and efficient.
Our guides Gilbert and Houssein accompained us during the safari of a lifetime: they were very competent, ironic, supportive and funny. In a perfect english they explained everything we needed to know about animals and nature and shared stories and opinions. We felt like they were long term friends and enjoyed their company.
All accomodations satisfied our expectations and food was good and various.
Peter has been our guide during trekking on Mt. Meru. With huge patience he supported us all the way up to the peak of the mountain with a positive and encouraging attitude. We will always be thankful to him for giving us the chance of living one of the best experiences or our lives: see the sunrise behind mt. Kili. A big thanks also to the rest of the crew. Accomodations were not as good as we expected, but this is not imputable to Destiny Explorers as the two lodges are the only ones available on the way up and the rangers should take better care of them.
We would really reccomend Destiny Explorers for two reasons:
- it is founded and owned by local people and responsible travel should always support local realities
- it provides a top quality service with an excellent quality/price ratio.
Thank you!!!!

Pleasant, communicative and nice
Communication was fast and good, every question, request was answered quickly. We went on a safari with Joseph which was very pleasant.
We found plenty of lions everywhere we went - this alone is an unforgettable and recommended experience.
The accommodations were excellent.
