Fantastic operator! True value for money, exciting program and very experienced and friendly staff.
We booked the 3-day safari tour in Nyerere National Park and it exceeded all of our expectations. The communication before our trip already was great, we received answers to any questions or changes in our plans within minutes.
The trip itself was absolutely unforgettable. The biggest plus would be that we had a private safari with just the 3 of us, not having to share transport or accommodation with a big group of other tourists - which made it more special and easier to move. The trip from Dar Es Salaam to the national park was already enjoyable, driving through the country with our experienced and fun guide Aberi who could tell us everything about Tanzania, culture and nature in specific. The lodge was incredible, offering us separate cabins with much space, privacy and comfort. The meals in the lodge were also great and their staff very friendly.
The itinerary was well curated - offering boat safari one afternoon, game drive the next day, closing off with a bush walk on the final day. I also liked the fact we could adjust the planning somewhat to our liking as we had a private safari.
Aberi knew a lot about the park and the animals, trees and plants. Because of his experience it didn't take long before we saw hippo's, lions, elephants and giraffe's and we managed to come really close. We all felt really safe because we were in the hands of people who work in these parks for many years and we were always accompanied by rangers or a guide.
All in all, would highly recommend to anyone traveling there!

Amazing four-day safari with Camp Lilac, featuring unforgettable wildlife encounters
Our four-day adventure with Camp Lilac Safari was simply unforgettable! We explored the stunning landscapes of Mikumi National Park and even had a day of invigorating hiking in the Udzungwa Mountains National Park. The experience was elevated by incredibly friendly and knowledgeable guides who made us feel truly cared for every step of the way. From the awe-inspiring wildlife encounters to the breathtaking natural scenery, every moment was a delight. I would highly recommend Camp Lilac Safari to anyone looking for a well-organized safari experience with flawless communication.

Flawless service from start to finish—an unforgettable experience with great care
From start to finish, the communication with Camp Lilac Mikumi Safaris was excellent. We never felt alone during the entire experience, as everything was perfectly planned down to the smallest detail—from the airport pickup to the resort arrangements and the selection of knowledgeable and friendly guides.
One of the highlights was the visit to the Maasai village, which was both authentic and deeply enriching. The value for money was outstanding; while others pay the same price for just a one-day trip from Zanzibar, we were pampered throughout the entire experience.
From the first contact, Isaya made me feel completely at ease. I had no hesitation in paying the initial deposit, as their reliability was evident from the start. I can wholeheartedly recommend this tour operator for a seamless and memorable safari adventure!

Perfect organization + Safari
Everything was perfect from the start!
Isaya was in constant contact with me, first by email, then by WhatsApp. We were picked up from the hotel and had lunch on the way. We arrived in Mikumi, where our competent and friendly 2 safari guides were already waiting. We set off straight away and we were extremely lucky in just half a day. We were able to see a leopard, lion, elephant, buffalo, giraffe, zebra.
Special praise again to Isaya, he does a perfect job, is very communicative and interested. He also told us a lot about Tanzania and his own life path. Unfortunately our flight to Zanzibar was cancelled, we then had to make the ferry, here too he helped us get the tickets, for which we were really grateful, as it is just a huge chaos here and you have to look after your things very carefully. Super organised

Wonderful trip
With my friend we spend 3 days with the two best guides of Tanzania. Our Driver, Idris knows the spots perfectly to find animals, He comes up close to allow us to take the best pictures. Obviously he is a good driver but he knows also all animals and gives many facts (fun, original and little-known) on them. Our second guide, Stefano, find many animals for us but he knows also all the stories about them, why they eat this plant, why they live here etc
Our two guides were so kind, friendly and professional. If you want to live an unforgettable experience you are in the right place and in good hands!
I just want to say Thank you to my two amazing guides, Idris and Stefano for these 3 days, I Will remember this trip for the rest of my Life.

There are not enough positive adjectives to describe our experience with Camp Lilac
From the first contact through the last portion of our trip to Mikumi, every detail was perfect. Booking was way, we created a trip that allowed us to do all the things we wanted. We took a night game drive, we stayed inside the park, we took a day game drive and need with a flight to Zanzibar.
The communication throughout was timely and correct. The drivers and guide were professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The pricing was fair and reasonable.
Based on our experience , we highly recommend Camp Lilac

I highly recommend Safari with this travel agency. Our guide Isaya did a perfect job. We saw a lion! Something fabulous. He told us a lot about the life of animals and the life of people in Tanzania. we also visited a Maasai village. Worth the experience. We had accommodation at Camp Bastien. clean, tasty meals, swimming pool. Transfer from the airport and to the ferry included in the price. Unlimited number of soft drinks. wonderful experience. I recommend Safari with Camp Lilac Mikumi to everyone.

Couldn't expect a better service
Great service, they took us from the airport, provided decent place to sleep and eat 3x day during the 3 day stay and dropped off at the ferry.
First day after the transit to mikumi included visiting a Maasai Village, the second was full day at the safari and the 3rd transportation to the ferry.
Our guide Isaya was very professional with wide knowledge about safari and animals, also the difficult travel in harsh environmental conditions felt very safe and comfortable. The car they used to transport us from the airport was big and very comfortable, the 2nd one used at the safari was off-road Nissan Patrol.
Good value for money.
