Lawrence was amazing. I definitely would recommend Lawrence to be your personal guide. He knew the space he knew the area he knew where to take us. He was an excellent driver. He spoke English well and got along with all of our people in the party.

Wonderful Safari Experience with a Few Helpful Notes
Overall, we had a wonderful time on safari in Tanzania. Moria Tours was punctual and even picked us up partway from Serval Wildlife, which was very convenient. The drivers were incredibly kind and took the time to teach us some Swahili phrases, which was both helpful and a beautiful insight into the culture.
We truly enjoyed learning how to make coffee at Materuni Falls—it was a memorable and enriching experience. That evening, we stayed at Charity Hall Hotel. While it was clean and functional, it felt more like a budget hotel and was not our favorite. In the future, we would likely pay closer attention to the hotel selections provided.
On day two, our early-morning hot air balloon experience was absolutely amazing. Although the transfer driver from the hotel to the balloon launch site arrived late, he did his best to get us there as quickly as possible. The hot air balloon experience with Miracle was breathtaking. Because there were so few guests, we were actually the only ones in the balloon, which made it extra special. We saw elephants, lions, and many other animals. The captain was extremely knowledgeable, and the entire team worked seamlessly together. The breakfast afterward was beautifully prepared, clean, and thoughtfully organized.
The driver who transferred us to Tarangire Safari was also very knowledgeable, which added to the experience. One suggestion we would offer is clearer communication about how many people will be in the safari Land Cruiser. We have long legs, and being seated in the back with a full vehicle was quite uncomfortable and, at times, painful. In the future, limiting the vehicle to four or five guests might greatly improve comfort.
Another helpful improvement would be providing advance information about luggage limits in the Land Cruiser. We were not aware that we could not bring all of our bags, which caused some last-minute coordination and stress.
Our Ngorongoro experience the following day was also very nice. The drivers were friendly and knowledgeable, and the other passengers were lively and fun. Our only note was regarding the secondary hotel, which did not have air conditioning. This was particularly difficult for my husband, as the heat made the stay uncomfortable.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience seeing so many incredible animals and exploring Tanzania. With clearer communication around vehicle space, luggage limits, and hotel amenities, the experience could be even better for future guests.

Amazing Experience!
We had an amazing three-day safari in Tanzania. Everything was very well organized, making the experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. Our guide, Joseph, was fantastic—knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about what he does. He made sure we saw incredible wildlife and truly enhanced the entire experience. We would highly recommend this safari and especially Joseph as a guide!

Great trip with Franklin!
Lulu Safari helped arrange a private trip for us and we had a wonderful 8 days with our guide Franklin. We started in Rwanda and ended in Uganda and there were so many highlights! We loved gorilla trekking and seeing all the animals on safari. Lulu Safari and Franklin took care of everything and the trip was seamless. We would book with them again if we are able to return to Uganda.

Review about Murchison Falls National Park by Gareth Hughes
Vast savanna but not jam packed full of birds - maybe there could have been a better couple of spots for our guide to take us to

Review about Lake Mburo National Park by Gareth Hughes
Great place but didnt spend enough time here and didn't even see the lake! Had a night drive but seeing that I was wandering around the hotel with my binoculars, it would have been nice for someone to tell me about the nightjars that roost there but I did not find out until we were leaving for the airport!
