Well organised and seamless. Always approachable and responsive
Tanzania trip review
We decided to do a Tanzania trip (safari + Zanzibar) for 14 days during the August period to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary. We started planning well in advance in December 2025.
I approached about 6 safari providers among which 2 of them were at very high range and 4 were comparatively of similar cost.
The main reason for me to choose See Endless was how responsive they were. Credit to Hatibu (representative / coordinator) who was extremely patient and approachable and responsive even during weekends and off hours.
We went backward and forth with about 20 iterations of the quote with different options of accommodations, with and without flight reservation to Zanzibar and also Zanzibar accommodation. That shows the level of patience with Hatibu. I however did similar iterations with other providers as well some of them were responsive and others lacked the communication.
We had the option to choose the best accommodation possible by comparing 3-4 hotels/camps for the 6 nights in Tanzania and zeroed in on 4 different lodges (2 of them had 2 nights).
Overall the recommendations provided including our own research proved worthy and seamless. No issues or concerns encountered ever during the entire process.
The deposit was paid in two instalments on my request and everything was confirmed in Jan. Feedback: The only small detail that could improve the booking process is that the kind of rooms per accommodation was not accurately provided, but a more general room type such as (2x standard room) for a family of 4 even though we got family rooms on most of our stay except one which had 2 rooms. As all other accommodation booking websites (like bookings, agoda or Expedia), it would help if the confirmation states what kind of room/suite per lodge/hotel is reserved. That would give the peace of mind to the guests considering this is a new country and experience especially travelling with 2 kids. That said, the accommodation booked was all as per request and of high standard and as expected. We are vegetarians and food was provided as requested. Absolutely no concerns with this. The agency can be trusted.
I ended up booking my own flight from Arusha to Zanzibar (in precision air) going against the recommendation/proposal of Hatibu and regretted as my flight was the only one delayed that day and we felt we should have stuck with the option provided by Hatibu (though we needed some extra bags allowance and found slightly cheaper rates). Likewise we booked our own Zanzibar accommodation as well to enable flexibility and slight cost difference.
However all transfers were arranged even though we had to take an earlier flight (due to Middle East situation ) and Hatibu accommodated all the transfers without any issues. All of their drivers were ahead of time.. I mean everyone and every time in the 14 days trip.
Safari Game Drives / Guide
The most important part of the trip is the game drive and we had an amazing guide Ezekiel. I can see everyone says that, but I’ll provide the highlights which makes him special:
Very courteous and friendly; extremely patient and kind; super knowledgeable about the entire area and he doesn’t even look at maps to cover the entire place which includes the 14k sq km Serengeti park. I still don’t get how he drives with confidence without any directions. He’s well connected and knows most of the other drivers (even from other companies). They connect and share a lot which is key for animal spotting.. a couple of times, even when we were ready to give up and go, he waited for a few more minutes to sight animals and this proved extremely valuable especially seeing the great migration which we were lucky to. He’s a great and safe driver - this is very important as you get to spend 6 days in his vehicle. He can spot animals without a binocular. We couldn’t even spot with it sometimes. That shows his experience. He provided answers to all the wildlife questions we had. Always ready ahead of time. You are in safe hands if you get Ezekiel as your guide. He’s a star!
Brief feedback on the lodges we stayed: (feedback not on See endless, but might help others choose)
Arusha - Under the shade lodge - Was overall ok and comfortable beds. We got a family suite with private pool which was great. The jacuzzis in both the toilets broke and flooded. They catered well with chapathi (and veg for lunch)
Manyara Best View lodge - Top notch except for the roads that lead to the lodge. Well organised and food was to the fine dining expectation. Great staff. Excellent pools and do spend time there if possible and include this in your itinerary. We stayed there 2 nights (one on day 2 and on day 5)
Serengeti sound of silence safari camp - Top notch and no complaints at all. Great food and facilities (considering they are in the middle of the forest). Even the WiFi works! Just blindly choose this and you’ll not be disappointed. We stayed there for 2 nights (day 2 and day 4).
Serengeti safari haven migration camp - Average. Food was average and also the water in the toilet was low. But since it was just one night, we were ok. Beds were good. If you get any other option, choose that. This feedback is only comparative to the other lodges which were exceptional.
Overall, I’d highly recommend See Endless based on my personal experience with Hatibu (representative) and Ezekiel (guide for the game drives).

An unforgettable safari experience from start to finish, with exceptional guidance, incredible wildl
We had an amazing safari experience from start to finish. The team supported us very well, including help with how to pay/visa tips, making everything easy and stress free.
Our guide Murshid was very good and made the safari truly special with his knowledge of wildlife and the Serengeti. We learned a lot about the Great Migration and the ecosystem.
We saw incredible wildlife, including many lions, the Great Migration, rhinos, leopards, and cheetahs. A highlight was witnessing lions successfully hunting a buffalo.
The lodges and camps were excellent, and the service was great throughout.
This was a dream experience, and we highly recommend this company\.

Great few days at the lakes!
We had a fabulous few days at the lakes with Robert as our superb tour guide. The experience was breathtaking especially being able to walk amongst giraffes and zebras and to visit a hippos bedroom! To see nature this close was incredible and Robert was brilliantly knowledgeable and eloquent about the environment and Kenya in general. A real anthropologist!

INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH MIKE. WE ARE SUPER PLEASED AND HAPPY WITH HIS SERVICE!
The value for the Money was worth every penny. Mike knows every trick of the book. He knows the roads and he is very experienced.
We could not recommend him enough. We managed to see many animals and he explain everything about them and their habitat.
