Friendly and responsible staff
We had a great safari experience with Kihindo Tours. Drivers picked us up on time whether it was a hotel or a train station. Guides were knowledgeable and helpful. Nuhu and Saloniki are well-experienced guides who had answers to all our questions during our game drives in Mikumi National Park. We saw all the wild animals except leopards, which are pretty hard to find. My husband and I are thankful for the amazing trip we had.

Wonderful experience in tanzania
We chose mountain warriors for our safari in the northern circuit of Tanzania (5 days, lodge) and it has been a really nice experience!
Kefas, our guide, explained us everything we saw, in a precisely manner, never being intrusive and we really appreciate the passion he puts on his work.
Also, the lodge where we stayed were all above the expectations!

Richard is a rockstar!
This review is only for Richard’s awesomeness. Before we came for the safari, little did we know how it all works. The experience of a tourist on a safari will be completely dependent on who your driver+guide is and we got the best of the lot, Richard. He is a Masai and knows the area at the back of his hand. He has answers to everything and solutions to every problem. He never rushes when the view is good and always chases the animal routes to get you the best photograph. He is always on time and makes sure you are on time too so that you enjoy your trip to the fullest. We are so happy that our first time in East Africa was made memorable by Richard’s presence. He is great and I cannot recommend him enough!!!
Thank you Richard ♥️♥️

The best way to experience Tanzania
Six & Seven tours will provide everything you need to have an incredible time in Tanzania, and more. Their guides are smart, supportive and knowledgeable about the region. Whether you want to visit nearby national parks, climb one of Africa’s tallest mountains or just learn about the history and culture of Tanzania - Six & Seven tours will make it happen. After volunteering with them several years ago, I returned to visit and to spend time in Arusha. During my most recent trip, I spent a couple days volunteering at the Centre and nearby Yakini school living at the house with a few other volunteers. It is a unique way to experience Tanzania, living in a home with the ammenities and privacy you would expect in a standard accommodation, but with the company and conversation with locals you won’t get anywhere else. Plus, you will get the chance to learn about life in Arusha through the experience of the students and staff at the Yakini school. To top it off, you will enjoy the most incredible food made fresh everyday by their most talented chef.
I then geared up for a 3-day hike of Mt. Meru. The head guide made sure I had all the appropriate gear, that I was comfortable on the mountain and helped me improve my Swahili! The food during the trek was some of the best food I’d eaten in the entire 10 weeks I spent in Africa. Having hiked Kilimanjaro previously, I was very impressed with the experience that Six & Seven Tours provided for me during my trip. I highly recommend this organization, and can’t speak more highly of David and his family and what they have to offer those coming to visit their homeland. Thank you again.

It’s amazing experience in Tanzania, very close to wild animals and nature world.
Our guider George is an experienced and kind-hearted tour guide. Under his guidance, our past seven-day trip was full of surprises and wonderful moments. We witnessed the wildebeest crossing, a lion pride with nine cubs playing together, elephants fighting, and cheetahs hunting. Highly recommend visiting Tanzania with George as your guide—he will definitely bring you amazing experiences!

Beautiful country. Great for Safari
My only disappointment comes from the specific tour/safari operator who didn’t meet my expectations

The most amazing experience! Thankyou!
Our experience with 6 & 7 tours was incredible. We stayed with David in Arusha, helped out with the local schools he supports, climbed kili, and did a safari tour. Firstly, thankyou, this was a trip of a lifetime and it was organized perfectly by 6 & 7 tours. The tour guides were great, Hope, Goodluck and David were fantastic, they made us feel safe, organized everything, were accommodating and communicated well. The safari was superb, the 4 x 4 vehicle was clean and well maintained, the safari experience was unforgettable!!!! We went to Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, Seregenti, Tarangire, i cannot recommend this tour itinerary enough! We saw all the animals, watching lionesses hunting in the serengeti.....Amazing! Thankyou 6 & 7 tours!

Amazing drivers made for a great safari!
Landsmen was the company that handled all the arrangements for a photography class safari we went on in late August/early September this year. The accommodations arranged were quite nice with great staff and good food.
The drivers, however, were the best part of the safari (well, except for the animals). They handled the rutted and dirt roads like the pros they are but more importantly, they knew the animals and could spot them so quickly. And they knew a lot about photography, or at least what the photographers in the group would want (that golden hour light, for example). They would move to get new or better angles. I am not a photographer but I got to see a LOT of animals and spend time with them.
They also called the situation perfectly when we were waiting to see a crossing during the Great Migration – we watched most of the vehicles waiting leave and our drivers just passed out lunches to us and told us to be patient – the animals started crossing a few minutes later.
The safari trip also included canoeing on Lake Maryana, meeting with a couple of tribal families (different tribes and lifestyles) and a hot air balloon ride. We were very happy with the trip.
Landsmen also arranged a Rwandan Gorilla Trek for my husband and me – great driver/guide in Rwanda, a wonderful lodge to stay near the trek location and a very nice place to stay in Kigali. Overall, we would happily work with them again.

Attentive and responsive
My partner and I really enjoyed our 10 day trip in Kenya! This was our first safari, so we weren’t exactly sure what to expect. Lencer communicated with me off and on for weeks. She would answer my messages within minutes. I told her exactly what we wanted in our price range. Due to the last minute booking, we had to change several hotels. We were very happy with the hotel changes. She scheduled every little detail for us. The timing was great and we felt comfortable and not rushed. At the very last minute she set up a driver to take us to the Giraffe Center before our flight home.
Johnathon was our guide for the safari portion of the trip. He listened to what we were interested in and made sure to find the best locations. He was familiar with the animals and taught us about wildlife along the way. He was always on time and worked with our schedule. My partner and I love cats and Johnathon made it the main focus of our trip. We saw a pride of lions, a leopard eating a hyena and 3 separate cheetahs all in one day. We were lucky to see the big 5 and every single day we saw something very special.

Most amazing adventure!
This is our second safari with Savannah explorers, and this one was equally memorable. In January the Serengeti was greener, but during this drier season there were drier conditions, but we saw so many more animals- probably 100 lions, cheetahs, hyenas, leopards, the wildebeest migration, and everything else. Our guide, Juma, was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to create the very best experience for us. The accommodations were all spectacular and comfortable. Staff at each site were so kind and helpful. We are already planning our next trip.
