9-Day Tanzania Safari Adventure - Wild Serenity Safaris - 4,5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⯪
✅ Pros / Overall Experience (in chronological order)
Arusha city & local driver (from Gasper) – the driver provided in Arusha (city transfers only, before the safari) was a big plus. He took us everywhere we wanted to go around the city and always made sure we felt safe.
Waterfalls, Kilimanjaro foothills & coffee plantation – the waterfall itself is a nice addition, but combined with the coffee plantation visit it made for a truly great and well-organized day. We strongly recommend choosing the plantation tour.
Safari experience & wildlife – we saw almost all animals from the Big Five (except the rhino). Lions extremely close to the car (walking right next to it!), lots of zebras, elephants, leopards, giraffes, cheetahs, hippos, as well as many other animals, monkeys, and countless bird species.
Safari driver Adrian (from Gasper) – very professional and knowledgeable. He answered all our questions, reacted quickly to radio information about animal sightings, and made sure we reached the right places fast to see as much wildlife as possible. He truly tried to show us as much as he could.
Food during the safari – meals were well organized and good, especially considering safari conditions.
Accommodation – lodges were generally very good for African standards, clean and comfortable.
❌ Cons
Communication with the organizer – information about the plan for the next day was often provided too late, sometimes only after 10:00 PM. Because of this, we couldn’t order breakfast for a specific time, as we didn’t know whether departure would be at 5:00 AM or 9:00 AM.
Shortened safari day (Ngorongoro Crater) – one safari day was partially lost. We spent only about 3 hours in the crater and were back at the hotel around 2:00 PM, because part of the group had to be driven to the airport. This should have been split into two separate groups: those leaving and those continuing the safari.
Rhino sightings – seeing a rhino is very difficult and requires a lot of luck.
💡 Tips
Always ask in advance whether the organizer plans to shorten a safari day due to airport transfers.
Check the distance between accommodations and national parks — sometimes the drive can take 1–1.5 hours one way. Choosing something closer can save a lot of time.
Staying inside the safari park (especially Serengeti) is absolutely worth it. We highly recommend booking at least one night there — sunrise over the Serengeti feels like a scene from The Lion King 🦁🌅
⭐ Overall Recommendation – 8-Day Trip
We highly recommend an 8-day itinerary, which felt perfectly balanced and not rushed:
Day 1 – Exploring Arusha
Day 2 – Waterfalls, Mount Kilimanjaro foothills & coffee plantation
Days 3–4 – Serengeti National Park
Day 5 – Ngorongoro Crater
Day 6 – Tarangire National Park
Day 7 – Lake Manyara
This plan allows you to experience different parks, landscapes, and wildlife without feeling rushed.

Transfer provided to game reservation in Pilanesburg. Excellent service
The drivers were punctual and very efficient in the transfers. It was safe and comfortable and both drivers(Isaac and Ben) were very excellent. I'll recommend Africa Moja highly for activities, transfers and tours in South Africa

A once in a lifetime experience!
If you are so lucky to get Patrick as your safari guide, you will have one of the best experiences of your life. He is kind, welcoming, and focused on how he can make your trip the as memorable as possible. I can’t recommend him enough.

Beautiful time
We saw the Big Five!
We were on a private 8-day safari, and it was an amazing experience. The communication with Eli was top-notchhe answered very quickly, and I had a lot of questions which he always responded to kindly 😊
We had Amani as our guide, and he was great. We saw the Big Five by day 3. We were also lucky enough to witness a hunt—a cheetah that killed a Thomson’s gazelle. We saw many cheetahs with cubs, lions with 2-month-old cubs, a leopard with cubs, and much more.
Hekima Safaris did a great job. I can highly recommend them for your safari—everything was excellent from start to finish 💯💯
I also want to thank Safines. I wanted to buy a safari hat on the way from Arusha to Tarangire, and he made it happen. Many thanks, Safines!

Best Local Company - 8 Days lemosho Route
We completed the 8-day Lemosho Route in mid-October this year, and the entire experience was truly one of the most incredible adventures we have ever had.
The route itself is breathtaking, with beautiful views of Mount Kilimanjaro throughout the journey, feeling closer and closer with each passing day. However, the most special part of the trip was the people who made it all possible.
The Nafika Tours team, Inocent, Efata, Anold, and everyone involved, exceeded all our expectations. Their constant smiles, singing, and genuine care made the expedition unforgettable.
They always ensured we were well-rested, feeling good, staying hydrated, and supported every step of the way, all the way to the summit and safely back down.
With their excellent care, three freshly cooked meals a day, snacks during the hikes, carefully chosen camping spots, daily medical checks, and an atmosphere full of positive energy, we never doubted that we would reach the summit. It was clear that they truly love the mountain and take great pride in their work.
By the end of the 8 days, it felt like we had gained a family, and we are deeply grateful for this unforgettable experience.

Great guide taking us to see the wonders of three of Tanzania's beautiful parks
Communication with See Endless ahead of the tour was good; very quick to respond. They should have told us that older USD were not accepted, but that was the only downside of the trip.
Once on the tour, Boazie was a great guide taking us to the wonders of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater. We were never rushed to move on but also never held up either.
Stayed in three great places, with the camp in the Serengeti (intimate camp seronera) the particular highlight, waking up to seeing zebra, giraffe and other animals outside the tent).
Food was always good, and had plenty of water provided throughout.
Would thoroughly recommend.

Beautiful safari tour
Went on the 6 days safari budget tour. We enjoyed it a lot. Saw many animals and completed the Big 5. The waterfall and coffee tour on the last day was worth it too. We can recommend booking with them.

Amazing Experience
Our guide Benson was the key for our amazing experience, his cheerful personality, his excellent driving skills, his knowledge of the parks and wildlife made our five days Safari a great memory. Benson’s ability to predict the animals’ next move enabled us to arrive at the perfect spot for a closer look at the animals, we were amazed and impressed, and how lucky we were, best holiday ever.
We will definitely come back.
