3 day safari at the maasai mara. Mr. Daniel the tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable.
The safari was wonderful, lots of great memories were made. We were pleasantly surprised how everything was flawless from the pick up at the city centre to our destination and our journey back. The service was impeccable at sopa lodge which was suggested by zama expeditions. The tour guide Daniel was friendly, passionate and sensitive to our needs and wishes. We saw all the big 5 and even had a picnic at the game reserve under a tree, that was quite a treat. Overall my family had a good time and we enjoyed every moment of the safari.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Maria
So vast and as beautiful. A very bumpy ride to get there, but worth it! We saw so many lions, even babies. We saw a cheeta hunting. A lot of hippos and giraffes. It was amazing.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Maria
The most scenic and exciting route to go into the crater. All the animals live within the big crater, it has a Paradise feel to it. We saw so many wonderful animals here, even a rhino from some distance.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Maria
We went here on our last day and had luckily already seen everything we had hoped to see, because we only saw monkeys, a few impalas, zebras, elefants and two lions here.

Bounty beaches and amazing wildlife
My family and I (ages 2-66) had an amazing time in Tanzania.
Starting with a week on Zanzibar, we fell in love with both Stonetown to the West and the beautiful blue ocean and bounty beaches to the East.
We then flew to Arusha for a four day safari with Sopai, our incredible tour operator, with the best guide ever, Patrick. He seemed to have a 6th sense about finding animals - we literally saw everything we dreamed of! From chetas, lions and servals (yes, plural) to hippos, zebras and everything you hope to see while on safari.
We went to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and lake Manyara. All four places were very different and very scenic, and it was amazing to experience both the lush bush and jungles as well as the dry savannah, a true “African dream”.
We also really enjoyed the safari jeep with a functional fridge for cool beverages and the fact that you could charge multiple devices and cameras at the same time within the jeep!
To have the best experience though, it’s important to have patience and internalize the local motto of “hakuna matata” (i.e. relax, everything is going to be okay), bring a Mastercard for easier access to US Dollars and, when traveling with children, either require a child seat in advance or accept the lack there of (in any mode of transportation). All in all we had a wonderful trip with its people being as wonderful as the country itself!

Most beautiful country and home to the world wonder Serengeti
We were on a Great Migration Safari in Tanzania with Safarisolestours.com, a great tour operator in Tanzania, and had an amazing time in this beautiful country. Tanzania is incredibly diverse. There are savannahs, deserts, jungles, mountains and some of the most beautiful landscapes on the planet. Plus the unique experience of the great animal migration, which is truly unique in the Serengeti. Another highlight are the beautiful beaches and islands, such as Zanzibar, which invite you to relax. You can come back to Tanzania again and again and experience something new every time.

Great African Safari Adventure
Not just a Safari... An African adventure!!!
September 2024
If you are looking for"up close and personal" interactions with the"big five"and many more, then this Safari s for you, especially if you don't want to break the bank to pay for your trip!!!
From the beginning to the end, I was treated with respect... As an honored visitor! Dancing with my Masai brothers and doing a guided up-close walking tour only made the trip more special...
But the greatest adventures were the daily interactions with the wild animals! Close encounters with cheetahs, elephants, lions, giraffes and rhinos walking along with us and actually among our vehicles was amazing... We could have reached out and touched then except that would have been beyond dangerous!!!
Our overnight facilities contributed to the whole Safari experience... The camps were clean, well-organized and helped create the perfect Safari atmosphere.
What a great experience!
