Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Idy
Descending into the Ngorongoro Crater is mind-blowing! It’s the world's biggest unbroken volcanic bowl, and because it's enclosed, it holds thousands of animals in one spot. You get gorgeous scenery and a fantastic chance to see the large mammals in a single game drive.

Tanzania delivers an unforgettable safari filled with abundant wildlife and the Great Migration.
Visiting Tanzania during the peak month of July is a major investment, but it completely delivers on its promise for wildlife enthusiasts. Catching the Big Five and witnessing the awe-inspiring Great Migration were the main purposes of my trip, and seeing those dramatic river crossings in person made every bit of the planning worthwhile. While July does bring larger crowds and higher tour fees, the payoff in wildlife density is unmatched.
Beyond the animals, Tanzania pleasantly surprised me with its comfort and hospitality. I was initially concerned about logistics and sanitation, but I was relieved to find bidets widely available in the restrooms. The culinary experience was equally impressive: our camp chef prepared fresh, hot, and nutritious meals daily - featuring eggs, oatmeal, fresh vegetables and fruits, and even unexpected treats like pork bacon. Coupled with the genuinely friendly and welcoming nature of the local people, every moment in the field and at camp felt safe, comfortable, and deeply enriching.
Awesome!
We had such a fantastic experience! Christine and Julius were amazing guides! They made our trip the best ever! Their service was top notch. When one of our selected accommodations wasn’t to our liking, they not only helped us find another option but also helped clean one of the rooms so we could settle in as quickly as possible. Rwanda is amazing and Naleyo made our time there fantastic!

A great safari experience for a family
It was an incredible experience, enjoyable for children and adults. The tour operator provided a comfortable accommodation, in a large and clean room, with a lot of facilities included; the game drive perfectly suited our expectations and the guide was a qualified professional.
Prices they offered wireless very competitive compared to other tour operators.

Perfect from start to finish!
Literal perfection from start to finish! Look no further and book with Safari Soles!
Planning: Janeth made planning and booking our trip a breeze. She listened to what we were hoping to see and what our budget constraints were and then created the perfect, tailor made itinerary for us! She was also there to answer all of our questions leading up to the trip, giving us true peace of mind.
Arrival: Chief met us with a smile at the airport and made us feel immediately at home. He also took us on a complementary tour of Arusha the next day and we had the best time together!
Safari: Ally was our guide for the 5 day safari portion of our trip and he was incredible! He was so informative and fun and he showed us more wildlife than we ever imagined being able to see!
Accommodations: Every single one of the lodges, camps and hotels Safari Soles arranged for us to stay in were absolutely beautiful. From the friendly and helpful staff, to the grounds, to the rooms, to the food - every single one deserves 5 stars!

Unforgettable Mountain Gorilla Encounter in Bwindi – A Dream Come True!
Our Mountain Gorilla safari in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park was the highlight of our trip to East Africa — truly a bucket-list experience that surpassed all expectations. Trekking through the dense rainforest and spending an unforgettable hour with a family of wild mountain gorillas was incredibly moving. Watching the silverback, playful juveniles, and mothers with babies up close felt magical and deeply humbling. The park guides and trackers were outstanding: knowledgeable, safety-conscious, and passionate about conservation, which made the encounter even more meaningful.
Our driver, Godfrey, played a huge role in making the whole journey smooth and enjoyable. He safely handled the long round-trip drive from Kigali to Bwindi and back, sharing interesting stories along the way. On our final morning, despite heavy traffic in Kigali, Godfrey expertly navigated the roads and ensured we arrived at the airport well on time. His reliability, professionalism, and friendly attitude added greatly to the trip. He is the guy!
If you’re considering a gorilla trek in Uganda, go for it — Bwindi delivers an awe-inspiring, well-organized experience you’ll never forget.
Would you recommend this to a friend? Absolutely yes!
Value for money? Worth every penny!

What an experience we had!
We had Peter as our guide and we couldn't be happier. He was very knowledgeable on wildlife, and he knew where to look for the animals we didn't see yet. We totally recommend his service as he is attentive, caring, and made sure we were satisfied during our safari.

I highly don't recommend vivid adventure safari
Hanington was very disrespectful and kept demanding more money on different occasions than what we expected. The trip was terrible and I highly don't recommend anyone to have an adventure with this guy with what we passed through. Definitely No !
He must learn how to speak to people... It's a problem because he sees everyone who stays abroad to have money and take advantage because we are in your country .

A very serious and helpful tour operator
We left requests to "let's wander Tanzania" and received a proposal that was absolutely perfect for us. We visited the Serengeti Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire and got to see most of the animals with very good stories about each type of animal. We also rode a hot air balloon which was an unforgettable experience "recommended" We had very good help before planning the trip because we could write to Christian Mabula and get advice and answers to our questions that we had very quickly. Really recommend lets wander Tanzania it can't get better.
