The Wilde-Best Tour Guide and an Awesome Safari Experience: Thank You, Lindo Travels!
I don't usually write reviews, but I had to make an exception for our incredible tour guide, Stephan. He completely wowed me with his professionalism and expertise during our safari with Lindo Travels.
The first thing that stood out about Stephan was how well-prepared he was. Lindo Travels takes great care in maintaining and checking their vehicles and equipment. Additionally, Stephan had such an in-depth knowledge of the vehicle that he was even assisting tour guides from other companies whose cars had broken down.
What also sets Stephan apart is his remarkable ability to navigate the parks. These parks are vast, but he never used a map and always got us to where we needed to go on time. His skills didn’t stop there—his talent for spotting animals was amazing, and his extensive knowledge of each one we saw made the experience both fun and informative. Let's be honest—we go on safaris to see the animals, and my family and I weren't the best at spotting them ourselves. Stephan's keen eye and insights made all the difference.
Lastly, I was thoroughly impressed by Stephan’s sense of caution. He perfectly balanced being adventurous while also ensuring our safety. He never put us, or let us put ourselves, in any situation that could cause harm to us or the animals.
Stephan's expertise, and the preparedness of Lindo Travels created a safe environment where we, as tourists, never once worried about anything and could focus entirely on having fun. And fun we had—an absolute blast! If you're considering a safari, I highly recommend Stephan and Lindo Travels.

Best Local Tour Operator I Have Ever Worked With!
Five stars is not enought to convey how amazing our expierence was! Stephan himself was our guide and the entire process from start to finish was hassel free, organized, and amazing! Stephan was so great at helping us define the best safari itinerary based on our time constraints, what we wanted to see, and budget. As soon as we agreed to what we wanted, Lindo Travel did all our accomodation booking and even helped us with booking internal bush flights. Stephan was so communicative, friendly, informative, and professional the entire time. We saw so many animals, and Stephan had so much information on each of them! He got us the best accomodations and really took care to understand everything we wanted and tailor the schedule to that, make sure we felt comfortable and safe, and make sure we saw as much as we could! I can't recommend Lindo Travels enough, and we will be booking with them in the future for sure!

Tour of a lifetime -affordable, well organized and overall perfect.
We did a 9 day Safari with Lindo Travel and Tours. Stephan, who is the owner was our tour guide as well. We were a family of four, and we visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, central and northern Serengeti. From the time I started planning this trip, I had excellent suggestions and communications from Stephen and his team. Expectations were clear and prices were reasonable. When the safari started, everything went beautifully. We saw many other companies lost in the Serengeti, vehicle problems and accidents. We felt very safe with Stephen, who frequently helped these folks who were lost. In all of the 9 days, I didn’t see Stephen using a single map as he drove us all over the different parks on unmarked off roads. He hails from a Masai tribe and knows the Serengeti, the animals, birds and plant life like the back of his hand – he is a wealth of information. Lindo travel helped us get good deals, arranged all our internal flights and was very reasonable (as safaris go ) as compared to international tour companies. I would trust Stephen and his team unconditionally to do your Safari – I assure you, your family will have a wonderful time , and all will go smoothly. He is also great company, and our adult kids, my husband and I enjoyed our time together very much. We also saw the big five, herds of animals migrating and pretty much every animal we were supposed to see – overall it was an unforgettable experience.

Personalized and professional services with an amazing team of personnel
Just got back a few days ago from a wonderful and incredible trip to Tanzania that really could not have been possible without Stephan’s help throughout the planning process and also while we were on the ground. From accommodations, transfers, safari and additional tours, the team at Lindo were helpful and our hectic itinerary go off without a single hitch.
Special thanks to Toma, our guide/driver for our safari tours at Tarangire and Ngorongoro, for keeping us on the roads between Arusha and Moshi. But especially for his eagle eyes that spotted many of the rare sights, like leopards and black rhinos.
I’d also like to thank Stephan for his amazing service and personal touch. Also thankful that he arranged for a dinner of Nyama Choma when we had arrived past that hours of operations at one of our hotel’s kitchen. That was a scrumptious meal of goat and chicken.
Do not hesitate to reach out to Lindo Travels for your next East African tour! From Nungwi, Stone Town, Dar Es Salaam, Kilimanjaro and beyond, they do it right!
Asante sana, Team Lindo!

Dedicated to give client best experience
Stephan helped to arrange our tours hotel booking and transportation to and from the airport. For Zanzibar he recommended Nungwi Beach in addition to Stone Town which we loved. For our two day safari tour he arranged for the excellent tour operator Toma who had eagle eyes and spotted elusive animals such as the black rhino (twice) at Ngorongoro Crater before the other companies tour guides saw it..Toma drove us 5 hours in the dark back to Moshi despite very congested traffic and made sure we got to the next hotel safely. At Moshi Stephan was very hospitable and ate dinner with us until very late to make sure we had a great time. I highly recommend Lindo Tours for your East African travels!!!

Magical, memorable,wonderful safari experience!
stephan our guide communicated excellently by emailfrom the start.we wanted a four night camping safari and Stephen planned this skilfully, ensuring that we had everything fitted in as hoped, visiting the Serengeti and Tagahira national parks and ngorongoro crater.he was so committed to finding us 'the big five'and did exactly that, and more.stephan was very knowledgeable about the wildlife but also the local customs and tribes. He was courteous throughout-and good fun! And with the best camp cook ever-Idi, we felt that even though we'd chosen budget camping, we had five * treatment. Thank you so much
Fun 1-Day Tour!
My husband and I had an excellent time on our tour with Stephan and Emmanuel. Stephan made us feel comfortable, safe, and secure from start to finish. Emmanuel is a very knowledgeable, funny, and welcoming guide. Overall they were both fun and great at anticipating our needs throughout the tour; at one point Emmanuel found a walking stick and offered it to me without me having to ask (and it really came in handy!). Stephan also offered to drive us to a restaurant in the event our hotel's kitchen was closed for the night. I'd definitely tour with Lindo Travel again!

A wonderful trip with an excellent company!!!
We contacted Lindo Travel Co. Ltd and we've got immediately an answer. We had no idea what we should visit and see in Tanzania. But Lindo Travel Co. Ltd organized and prepared a wonderful and individually trip for us. The guide Stephan is very competent and for him it was important that we feel comfortable about doing the trip. He was always kind and very funny. Besides he knew every tree and animal we saw. He managed the whole trip, so we just could enjoy it.
He brought us to ngorongoro, mount Kilimanjaro, Tarangire and etc. It was a great experience! Furthermore he gave us some insider tips, so he showed us some places where tourists normally don't go to. So we got to know some special places but also the culture and people of Tanzania. It was a special trip! We noticed that Stephan loves his country and for him it's important to show the beauty and the special features of his Tanzania! We will never forget this trip and we hope to come back and meet him again! Thanks for being our fantastic guide!
