Highly recommened Serengeti Smile. Thank you my sales Jeremiah and my guide Champion.
1. Firstly, i should really appreciate my sales Jeremiah. Because I have a lot of questions, he spent the whole week asking questions, and even answered my questions at night and on weekends. In addition, because email is not as convenient as chatting, he registered WeChat specifically for Chinese people, and all our communication was conducted through WeChat. He was very patient, professional and friendly to us. Highly recommended my sales Jeremiah
2. Secondly, I would like to thank my guide + driver Champion. He has eagle eyes and can spot animals quickly. He is very nice, professional and enthusiastic, and treats Chinese people the same way. It's a pity that we didn't see leopards this time, but we saw wildebeest crossing the lake in December, which was a rare and beautiful scene. Highly recommended my guide Champion
3. An unexpected situation occurred. On the first day, we arrived at Ngorongoro from Kilimanjaro Airport, but the car broke down in the evening. The next morning, we couldn't connect the guide at the agreed time, and we were very anxious because we couldn't make international calls and couldn't leave messages. Fortunately, after waiting for half an hour, they came up with a solution. In the morning, they asked other local guides to take us to safari, and then they would pick us up after changing to a new car. I hope the company can pay more attention to the condition of the vehicle. The car we changed later was not as new as the one on the first day, but fortunately, there were no problems during the journey.
4. Overall, the trip was very satisfactory. Although some unexpected situations occurred, Serengeti Smile still solved the problem in a timely manner, because it's an emergency . So I still strongly recommend my sales and guide and Serengeti Smile.

professional,reliable
Many thanks to our guide Evans, who was very professional, reliable and gave us a great safari experience. Road conditions are poor in the short rainy season, but Evans can handle any location skillfully, giving us good protection. Under his guidance, the first day in the Masai Mara to see lions, close to see elephants, giraffes.And also very lucky to see hyenas eating zebras, cheetah parent-child play and other scenes.
I am especially grateful to my consultant Daisy, who is not only extremely patient and conscientious, but also can feel her friendliness and sincerity in communication. Reply quickly, answer every question seriously, often take the initiative to follow up, and help us upgrade the hotel. At the beginning, I was very careful in choosing the destination, I finally chose super eagle because I see trustworthy from my communication with Daisy. In fact, super eagle did not disappoint our trust.
We had a budget plan with two days hotel and four days camp, the overall accommodation conditions are far beyond expectations, among which the Amboseli man jaro tented camp experience is excellent. Just situated at the entrance of the scenic area, and we can see Kilimanjaro snow mountain inside the camp.
At the end of the trip, driver from super eagle offered to take me to the airport, and the driver sincerely looked forward to our coming to Kenya once again in the future.
Overall, this safari was a perfect experience, thank you super eagle, recommend super eagle to all friends who want to come.

Accurate
Makini is the top choice for Safari Tours in Tanzania! We spent three days in Ngorongoro and Serengeti parks, everything was perfect, friendly staff, great cuisine, super skilled driver. We spotted the big five easily since our driver was also our guide. The price for a three days safari was reasonable as we stayed in public campsite which I strongly suggest! Nancy arranged everything at the best, satisfying our requests!Thanks for all! Jamboooo

Amazing Unbelievable Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater
I visited Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater with Godfrey and it was amazing!!!! He is very knowledgeable and he told us many interesting facts about different species. He was able to spotted animals which were far away. We were very lucky and we saw 5 cheatahs, 5leopards,5 rhino's, more than 60 lions,hienas, pumba, hundreds of elephants, giraffes, buffalo, thousands of zebras and wild beasts. Godfrey was very kind and always made sure that we had all we needed. This trip was amazing!!!!!!!! Our chef Richard was preparing for us very good meals (breakfests, dinners and lunches which we were taking with us). I was even upgraded the last 2 nights and I got a hotel instead of camping.All was well coordinated.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED- Super Safari Tour Guide!
Our awesome safari trip experience is made possible through the amazing Safari Soles team and its partners.
If you have an idea of what you want, communicate them when you are asking for a itinerary. Regina did not disappoint as she patiently prepared the "12 Day Tarangire, Manyara , serengeti & Ngorongoro crater" itinerary with several changes as we had different interests in our group of seven.
Their excellent service followed with Vivian for attending to our queries before and during the trip. This is very helpful as there will always be changes due to unexpected weather conditions when we were on the night safari. You can tell everyone tries their best to give us a wonderful experience and we greatly appreciated that.
The team and their partners exemplifies Tanzanian warm and hospitality and notable mentions to:
- Chief and Andrew for picking us, providing a fun coffee plantation experience, and teaching us the Jambo song!
- Isaac for being an amazing guide, super spotting and driving skills! He is a very kind and warm, and the trip was like we are travelling as friends on a road trip! We are very happy to have him on our last day to the curios market and airport transfer!
- Paulo, our guide for his careful guidance that brought us on an adventurous hike to the Engaresero waterfalls,
- Alex, our guide for introducing us to the Hadza and Datooga tribes.
Accommodation choices are best researched before finalizing the itinerary so as to manage expectations. Overall the accommodation is a mixed bag with the good and not so good. But Safari Soles are open to alternatives to their original proposed accommodation if you know what you want.

A truly memorable safari experience
We can’t praise Golden Africa highly enough for the communication in planning a tailor-made safari, the quality of service provided and the attention to detail at all stages of the journey.
The itinerary that they helped us to prepare was absolutely perfect, in terms of different habitats, wide range of animal and bird species, different types of accommodation and duration. The feeling of remoteness we felt in Moremi, Kala and Savuti was incredible and the addition of northern Chobe enabled us to see the amazing concentration of elephants and even wild dogs. There was absolutely the right amount of water at Vic Falls to see their impressive power, but also to see the bottom and the layout, which you cannot do later in the rainy season due to the excessive spray.
The time spent in the mobile camp was magical, the way they’ve designed the camp is perfect and the staff were super attentive. The expertise of our guide was second to none, we saw so much thanks to his sharp and experienced eyes and learned so much about the geography, wildlife, and even politics of the country! His empathy, tact and caring oversight were extraordinary.
Kala provided a great counterpoint and we enjoyed the location and the time on the waterways. Muchenge provided the opportunity to see the massive herds of elephants and even wild dogs.
We saw so much and there were so many highlights, but I guess the lion kill right under our noses, the ardvaak in daylight, the leopard in a tree with her kill and the wild dogs were up near the top. Not to mention the fact that we got engaged during the trip!
