Dream comes true
We were travelling with our German-speaking driver Ernesto. It was so incredibly special! Ernesto always had his eyes open and knew so much about the animals. That was great and he made this safari something very special for us. Bianca laid the foundation for it and put together this trip according to our wishes. So we ended up directly in the Serengeti to be a part of the great animal migration. The fact that we then went on a hike into the Empakaai Crater after 3 days of game driving was also particularly heart-warming. In Tarangire National Park we were able to say goodbye to almost all of the animals again before Ernesto drove us to the super beautiful Kaliwa Lodge at the foot of Kilimanjaro. There we went on an incredibly enriching hike with Omega through banana-coffee-avocado-mango... plantations and roasted and brewed coffee ourselves with Mama Johann. It was great here too, what we were able to learn from Omega. Bianca put together a safari tour for us that couldn't have been better. It was a dream come true for us and we happily landed back in Germany with many wonderful experiences. Thank you for everything!

Great trip for a good price
I planned a 13 day safari with them for me and my cousin. Adam was our driver and guide and did a very good job. We stayed in Confort level tented camps and found them to be quite nice. Food was generally very good not great. I had expressed interest in some specific camps and they surprised us by getting us in at final moment. Our Landcruiser was brand new so in excellent condition. Most everything went off without a hitch some that did not were quickly resolved to our satisfaction.

Exceeded our expectations!
We were able to customize our trip through Stephen, who was wonderful to deal with. There were 5 of us, two couples and a single. All from the U.S. We did a seven day tour of the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. We asked our guide, Muro, to show us an authentic native village. He found one and we toured it. It was not on our planned schedule but it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. We could not of have asked for a better guide than Muro. This was the third trip to Africa for our group, and we felt he was the best guide we ever had. There were no river crossings happening for a couple of weeks prior to us arriving. The first day we were out on the Serengeti there were nearly a hundred Landcruisers driving around, following herds of wildebeest hoping for a crossing. Nearly all left by late in the afternoon. We stayed late because we were staying in the nearby Tukaone tent camp. Muro made the right call and we and only 4 other Landcruisers were there when a herd crossed. We drove up to the edge of the Mara river and had a front row seat. Crocodiles took about 5 wildebeest as we watched and filmed. We also twice saw lions mating!
We can't say enough about Muro. He was a very safe driver, and fun to be with. He pulled two other Landcruisers out, and a lot of the other guides would stop him and ask him for advice. He said he has been doing this for 18 years, and it was easy to see the respect the other guides had for him. He was very knowledgable and would point out all the different species. He pointed out over 50 species of birds and animals. We enjoyed having him be a part of our evening meal.
We stayed in the Tukaone tent camp and the Heritage tent camp. Each for 3 days. They were very comfortable, having flushable toilets and showers in every tent. The food was good and everyone in both camps were very pleasant and attentive. Stephen at Bestday took care of having us picked up and dropped off at the airport, and had us stay at the Tulia on our first day in and our last day out. We did not see rhino's, but everyone in our group had seen them before. We also know how difficult it is becoming to see them. Other than that, the trip could not have been better. Thanks again to Stephen and Muro.

Amazing experience!
My husband and I spent an amazing two days on the Northern Circuit Safari with Serengeti Clarity. The entire experience was a breeze – from the initial conversation with Frank to the two days on safari with Inocent.
Inocent was extremely knowledgeable and personable and went above and beyond to make our experience a memorable one. The two days were filled with animal sightings and even though we've been on various safaris before, the sightings were incredible.
We would love to plan another visit and will use Serengeti Clarity for any future travels to Tanzania. 5 Stars!

Unforgettable African Trip Thanks to Exceptional Service"
Thank you for making our honeymoon in Africa so special! Dominic and Francois were extremely professional and provided us with all the advice we needed. Francois, in particular, was very experienced and ensured we saw all the animals we hoped to see. Highly recommend!

Caring, knowledgeable, does what it takes to provide an excellent, safe, unique experience.
I recently returned from a fabulous Safari in Tanzania with 11 old friends and family. Our travel agent and friend had put together a 12 day sojourn and tapped a local Safari company, Oreteti Tours (www.oretetisafari.com), to make it happen. It was a huge success. We visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, the Serengeti and of course saw breathtaking wildlife. We also met members of local tribes, which was a welcome and unexpected addition to the usual safari itinerary. Our diverse group, ages 9 to 82, all came away feeling that it was an incredible, once in a lifetime trip.
Oreteti is a well known and highly rated Safari Tour Company. Its owner, Joseph, Masai by birth, took personal interest in our little group and spent time with us, relating stories of his unique upbringing. He selected boutique hotels and migration camps for us that were extremely hospitable, ultra clean, and very attentive to our many needs. Our guides/drivers, Renaldo and Raymond, were very knowledgeable about the animals and also shared insights into the culture of Tanzania. They were uniquely gifted in spotting animals (Renaldo, please forgive us for questioning the presence of that leopard in the tree!). And, of course, they were hyper vigilant as to our safety at all times. Yes, we saw all the major animals. Yes, we saw the wildebeest migration on two separate days and from several different animals. We are back now, and I am missing the great beasts, and the people of Tanzania, and our guides!

We had the experience of a lifetime!
From the moment we arrived everything went entirely according to plan. We were kept advised at all times as to the daily schedule. Pick ups were always on time. The guides were amazingly knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of the land and we saw upward of 20 different animals and birds.
Our tour started in Victoria Falls and ended in Maun and at all times our guides made sure we were safe and secure.
This is an incredibly well run family operation that provided us with excellent value for money. We have no hesitation in recommending Sekanka Travel and Tours to others planning a safari in Botswana
