They go the extra mile to give you an unforgettable experience.
Prompt pick up. Tried to make sure all of us got to see our favorite animal. Since we were in different areas we could see animals at varied heights and doing various activities. Lunch was very good. Stand outs for the day - 2 young male lions, monitor lizard and the watering hole.

Short but sweet stay
I was in Dar es Salaam for a volunteer medical mission and decided to go on a short, 2 night excusing to Zanzibar. I contacted Tanzania Choice safaris because they were recommended by the organization I was volunteering with and they put together an excellent itinerary based on what I told them I wanted to do. At the last minute I asked if I could switch one of my " activities" from hiking to snorkeling as it was so hot and my guide did this seemingly effortlessly. It was a bit uncomfortable for me to be treated so individually; I assumed other people would be getting picked up at the airport besides just me. I assumed more people would be snorkeling besides just me, but this tour company prides itself on individual attention. My guide was great. I'm sorry I can't remember his name but it's been a year. Also, my hotel was out of this world amazing. This was a top notch company with top notch guides

Efficient and professional
First time in Africa and the experience was splendid. Abdul being the tour guide as well as the sole driver the entire time did a great job for a newcomer like me. In those 3 days that I was here, he provided me with Rwanda and Uganda’s history backdrop and local tips throughout. He made sure that everything is taken care of, from trekking to food to accommodation, so everything sailed smoothly. Any concerns or questions, he was able to address and resolve quickly. Overall wonderful experience and looking forward to my next time in Africa!

The majesty of Kruger gloriously experienced!
I’m here to sing the praises of Lambs Senior Casper, a most stellar Mo’Afrika guide who showed us the wonders of Kruger National Park. His vast experience and knowledge was on display from start to finish. He taught us so much and was on it for wildlife sighting. He was fun and engaging. Thank you so much Lambs and Mo’Afrika!

The Steve crafts memorable journeys with ease and expertise.
Steve communication was great prior to the trip. He was very accommodating and flexible on time/dates and tour options. He met us on the first day with our driver, Kevin. The safari was everything and more than I could have hoped for. We saw the big five. The driver had great communication and was a very skilled driver. He easily navigated situations that looked impossible. He listened constantly to the radio and took us to all the highlight events. I recommend bringing a giant bag of candy for the kids in the area. The Masai village tour was very interesting. Thank you, Mimsoft safaris.

Unforgettable 5-Day Safari with Serengeti Luxury Safaris
We recently wrapped up a five-day adventure with Serengeti Luxury Safaris, exploring Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. It was an incredible journey from start to finish, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything went.

The Guides: Asad & Noel
Asad (Safari Guide)
Knowledge & Experience: With over 11 years of guiding safaris, Asad’s expertise truly shone. He knew exactly where to find animals and was able to answer every question—no matter how detailed or childlike our curiosity got.
Friendly & Flexible: From ensuring we had enough breaks to letting us sleep in and pick us up later when needed, he made sure we felt relaxed and comfortable. By the end, we felt like we were on a trip with a friend rather than just a guide.
Wildlife Highlights: We saw elephants up-close, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, black rhinos (from a distance), baboons, and of course, the mesmerizing migration of zebras and wildebeests.
Noel (Coordinator)
Warm & Accommodating: The moment we spoke with Noel on the phone, we felt at ease. He explained every detail of the trip thoroughly and ensured a smooth process from inquiry to departure.
Flexible Payment: We appreciated only having to pay a 10% deposit upfront. This was especially reassuring since we’d been scammed in the past. Being allowed to pay the remainder after the first day of our safari eased our worries.
Genuine Care: Every interaction felt personal, not transactional. Noel was respectful, kind, and totally understood our concerns. His friendliness really set a positive tone for the entire trip.
Great Value: The price was fantastic considering how much we got in return—expert guidance, seamless logistics, and top-notch accommodations.

Lodges & Camps
Kankari Lodge
Beautiful rooms, excellent restaurant, and multi-course dinners that blew us away. We stayed here before heading to Tarangire and again at the end—both stays were absolutely delightful.
Shu’hudia Camp
Surpassed our expectations: incredibly cozy, well-equipped tents, and food that rivaled high-end city restaurants. The staff’s friendliness contributed to a warm and lively atmosphere.
Mbalakai Camp
Near Ngorongoro, Mbalakai Camp offered spacious rooms and an amazing shower—some of the most comfortable lodge accommodations we’ve experienced. We also enjoyed dancing with the staff and appreciated their warm hospitality.

Extra Touches
Maasai Village Visit: Though not originally on our itinerary, Asad helped arrange this visit since we had extra time. It turned out to be a meaningful cultural experience we won’t soon forget.
Logistics & Comfort: From daily schedules to transport and meal stops, everything was perfectly organized. We never had to worry about a thing.
Memorable Wildlife Sightings: While we didn’t get the close-up lion encounter we’d hoped for, we understand that wildlife is unpredictable—no one can control nature! Still, we saw so many other incredible animals that we’re more than satisfied.

Final Thoughts
Our overall experience with Serengeti Luxury Safaris was outstanding—definitely a 10/10. Between Asad’s deep knowledge and friendly attitude, Noel’s accommodating nature and transparent communication, and the breathtaking lodges, we felt we received exceptional value for the price we paid. We wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti Luxury Safaris to anyone seeking an amazing safari adventure in Tanzania.
Would we do it again? Absolutely. And we’d call Noel and Asad without hesitation.

Smith is the best
Smith was an incredible tour guide - traveling with him made everything easy.

Awesome Safari Trip from planning to the very end
I had contacted many safari companies for our 10 days private Kenya Safari Trip and finally chose Explorers Wild Adventures based on their quick response, good price and very good reviews from the past customers. Johann answered all my questions honestly and gave clear instructions about money transfer from US. We upgraded to 4x4 and it was very comfortable even during long rides. We chose mid range hotels. They were mostly Sentrim chain hotels and were all pretty good. Our driver/guide David showed up on time to pick us up at our Nairobi AirBnB. He was punctual every day, clearly communicated every day program, had a great positive attitude and was eager to share his knowledge about animals and Kenya. We learnt so much about animal behavior, Kenyan politics and culture from him. Of the 2 optional tours that we did, Masai village tour was good but the lake Naivasha boat ride and nature walk was too expensive at $60 pp. We could have totally skipped it as we saw multiple hippos, giraffes, zebras in very close range with in our hotel (Lake Naivasha Country Club) that night.
Over all I highly recommend Explorers Wild Adventures. They are professional, work well together, did not mess up any reservations and really strive to earn and keep your business. You will be very pleased if you book with them.
