An absolutely unforgettable safari in Tanzania with Serengeti Smile!
5/5

We just returned from an extraordinary safari and wholeheartedly recommend this agency. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish.

We visited Tarangire, the Serengeti South and North, and the Ngorongoro Crater (4 days / 3 nights).

A huge thank you to our French-speaking guide, Nixon (xuxu), who was simply exceptional. Charming, extremely knowledgeable, and passionate, he made our trip truly magical. Thanks to him, we saw an incredible number of animals and learned so much about Tanzania and its wildlife.

Even when we had a few minor mechanical issues with the vehicle, the team responded immediately and were always incredibly attentive. We felt supported and completely confident throughout the entire trip.

Another major plus: the lodges and hotels selected were absolutely superb. Each stop was a real pleasure and added even more magic to the experience.

If you're going to Tanzania, we highly recommend Serengeti Smile. An experience we'll never forget!

Absolutely adored my experience today at Pilanesberg. We were so lucky with the weather and the animals we got to see and Martin made the experience so enjoyable. Was so knowledgeable about all the fauna and flora and kept the day so fun always with a smile on his face.

Warm & loving , great hospitality
5/5

We booked with Simbaland because Mariam is very responsive and attentive to our special request. We learned that SimbaLand is also a local Tanzanian company which we are very glad to support the local.

We had a memorable honeymoon safari despite several challenges. Due to bad weather and poor road condition, we were stuck in Serengeti for a day but our tour guide - Panda and tour operator - Mariam did their very best to find an alternative way for us to continue with our safari journey. The accommodation arranged were very good , they arranged different type of lodges/tent for us to have different type of experience. We really love it!

They also gave us a surprise on our last day in Arusha which made us felt warm and loving.

We had 7 days and 6 nights of fun between Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Ndutu and Lake Manyara. Sleeping in fantastic tented camps and lodges with Kelvin, the best guide and driver ever. Elizabeth was super friendly and chose for us the best itinerary.
Super Recommended.

Excellent Guide Caleb – An Unforgettable Safari Experience!
5/5

Caleb is an incredibly knowledgeable guide with a deep understanding of both wildlife and local culture. During our game drives, he patiently shared fascinating facts about animals and insights into local customs, making every moment informative and engaging.

On safari, he is energetic and exceptionally observant—with eyes like a hawk, he always spots hidden wildlife long before anyone else. He also has a great sense of humor, keeping the trip lively and fun throughout. Traveling with him never gets boring, and you’ll easily become great friends.

Friendly and well-connected, Caleb knows nearly all the local guides and staff. He often receives real-time updates on animal locations via radio, helping us secure the best viewing spots. Whenever minor vehicle issues arose, he resolved them quickly, ensuring our schedule stayed on track. He speaks basic Chinese and is very patient, making communication smooth even if your English is not perfect.

A great guide makes all the difference to a trip. Thank you, Caleb, for providing my family and me with an unforgettable and joyful safari experience. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

Professional and exciting experience
5/5

I really loved the enthusiasm and the whole experience with the safari. We got to see the big five and got to know a lot about the animals in Tanzania. The communication with the guides were very good, and we were very happy with the activities, food and company. The people were reliable and I recommend everyone to have the safari tour with Utukufu Travels and Adventures.

The valentine's staycation in Naivasha was lovely. We got to enjoy a romantic ride in Hell's Gate National Park. February is low season, so we got to enjoy the low hotel prices at Naivasha. The team at lambwe untamed safaris walifanya kazi mzuri sana.
