A Wild Dream Come True in the Heart of Tanzania
5/5

I recently had the absolute pleasure of embarking on a four day safari adventure with Oldbeast Vacations, exploring the breathtaking landscapes of the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire. From the very beginning until the final goodbye, this journey exceeded every expectation I had. From the very reasonable price to the overall quality of the experience, everything was simply outstanding.

Our driver and guide, Max, was truly one of the highlights of the entire safari. He was an incredibly smooth and confident driver, but even more impressive was his deep knowledge of wildlife, nature, and the ecosystems we explored. Every game drive felt educational and exciting at the same time. His sense of humor kept our spirits high, and his passion for what he does made each day even more enjoyable.

The accommodations were nothing short of extraordinary. We stayed in truly unreal locations, surrounded by raw nature and wildlife. Being so close to elephants and buffaloes in their natural habitat was something I never imagined experiencing so intimately. At night, the sounds of the African wilderness filled the air, creating an atmosphere that was both thrilling and peaceful. Despite being so close to nature, we always felt completely safe and well taken care of.

The food was another unforgettable part of the journey. Every single meal was delicious and beautifully prepared, showcasing the best of Tanzanian flavors. Our chef was incredibly talented, kind, and accommodating, always making sure everyone was happy and well fed. His passion for cooking turned every meal into a highlight of the day. A true legend.

Overall, this safari with Oldbeast Vacations was truly a once in a lifetime experience that I will cherish forever. If you are planning a trip to Tanzania and want an authentic, well organized, and unforgettable safari, I cannot recommend Oldbeast Vacations enough. This is an adventure you will never forget.

A Reliable and Wonderful Travel Partner – JourneyMark Tours
5/5

I would like to share my wonderful journey with JourneyMark Tours, starting from the very first day I connected with their team—especially **Tess**. She was truly outstanding and extremely responsive throughout the entire trip planning process, right up to the day I arrived in Kenya. Every query I had was addressed promptly and clearly, which gave me great confidence and peace of mind.

**David**, the director himself, is an incredibly kind, helpful, and intelligent person. From the very beginning, he felt like a close friend to me and my wife. From our first destination at **Amboseli National Park** to the final leg of our journey in Masai Mara, David went above and beyond to give us the best possible safari experience.

He genuinely tried his best to help us spot the "Big Five", and thanks to his expertise, we were able to see an incredible variety of wildlife and birds, including lions, cheetahs, elephants, white and black rhinos, Cape buffalo, black-striped jackals, hyenas, bushbucks, impalas, warthogs, zebras, giraffes, hippos, wildebeests, baboons, Egyptian geese, secretary birds, ostriches, flamingos, pelicans, grey crowned cranes, egrets, grey herons, southern hornbills, and many more. Special thanks to David for patiently reminding us of all these names!

David is also a fantastic photographer and helped us capture countless beautiful pictures together, making our memories even more special. I must also mention the "sundowners experience"—having wine under the open sky in the heart of Masai Mara was simply magical.

Many thanks to the JourneyMark team for making this trip truly unforgettable. I will cherish these memories forever.

Grand Adventure
5/5



Juma was hands down one of the best tour guides we have ever had. From the moment we started the safari, he felt like part of our crew (there were seven of us), and his energy was absolutely amazing. He knew all the right spots, made the entire experience very smooth, and kept the vibe fun and comfortable throughout the trip.

The vehicle was spotless, and juma showed up every day looking sharp and fully ready for adventure. His bright and vibrant attitude was truly contagious. He went above and beyond to make sure we were completely satisfied, helping us spot so many beautiful animals including an unforgettable leopard sighting. That moment was pure magic and happened only because Juma knew exactly how to track and get us there.

If you are looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, fun, and genuinely a joy to be around, Juma is your guy. He made this safari experience unforgettable for all

Nice experience.
3/5

I was on vacation in Ethiopia from the 19th to the 25th of July 2025, even though it was a short break, I personally had a wonderful time. I booked East Africa Tour for a beautiful experience. Mr Beki had me discovered some of the nice places. I had a nice Tour around Addis-Abeba and visited some of the iconic places. I visited Wanchie and I was soo impressed of the beauty of the place. I tasted some of the nice, delicious traditional dishes, I had a nice experience with the East Africa Tour.

A well-structured tour with a great driver
5/5

+ Communication was clear, all questions were answered promptly, Ton is very responsive. The driver Mahmud was fantastic - the ride to the park was very smooth, on the safari itself he was attentive and very good at spotting animals & providing explanations. We also liked that he quickly noticed that we are rather "calm" explorers and provided us with a lot of personal space; at the same time, he was always making sure our needs are met.
- The car was a bit dusty, particularly the seats; however, we acknowledge that it might be hard to keep it in shape each tour due to the amount of sand that gets in; the day-plan could have an approximate hourly plan for orientation

Great value
5/5

I book last minute for a holiday safari. He pulled together a nice package for us. Plus as residents of Kenya, he didn’t try to gouge us on pricing! He just made a long term client of us by offering great value and great packages. Happy to find out he does safaris in other countries too!

Morningstar is a guarantee of quality and reliability
5/5

This was my second safari with Morningstar. The first one was in Kenya, and when I decided to visit Tanzania, I immediately chose them again because of how easy the booking process is, their prompt responses, and their clear and efficient communication.
Once again, everything was organized to perfection. The tented camps and hotels were located in stunning places, the experiences were truly unique and will stay with me for a lifetime, also the 4x4 vehicle was in perfect condition.
I must say that my guide Jackson was absolutely outstanding. He was always attentive to our needs, promptly answering all of our questions and making us feel like an integral part of Tanzania and its breathtaking landscapes. Furthermore, our guide was always punctual, drove the vehicle with great skill, and ensured that we felt completely safe at all times. The vehicle was always well-maintained as well. Additionally, our guide was a delightful person to chat with, sharing the beauty of their country with passion and knowledge.

Amazing, highly recommend
5/5



We did a 6-day safari tour with Hekima and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Our tour guide Juma went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. His deep knowledge of wildlife, positive attitude, and great sense of humor created an amazing vibe within the group from day one. Thanks to him, we were lucky to see all of the Big Five and even witness the great wildebeest migration in Northern Serengeti.

A special mention goes to Chef Baraka, who did an excellent job preparing three delicious meals every day. The food was consistently fresh, tasty, and well presented. My partner celebrated her birthday during the trip, and Chef Baraka went out of his way to bake her a cake and organize a small celebration, which made the moment incredibly special and memorable.

Hekima is a very well-organized company. Everything was arranged with great attention to detail, and communication between the office, guides, drivers, and chefs was excellent. While small itinerary changes can sometimes happen, everything was handled professionally and smoothly, ensuring the experience remained enjoyable and stress-free.

Overall, we felt well taken care of from start to finish. We highly recommend Hekima to anyone looking for a professional, warm, and unforgettable safari experience in Tanzania.
