Reliable, knowledgeable, attentive, friendly
It was such an easy pleasurable experience dealing with Ryan. He took the time to get to know what our requirements were and suggested an itinerary that suited us perfectly. Accommodation was top class and the ground transportation did not miss a beat. Most memorable family holiday ever

Kelvin was very professional, knowledgeable, personable, and the best we could have had!
When my wife and I thought about going on a safari to the Serengeti, we had this idea of what that would be based on research, but what Safari Soles delivered far exceeded anything we could have ever imagined! From the beginning, this company was top tier. Upon emailing them, I received an itinerary within 24 hours from Jamal Mwakilembe. This itinerary was based on the information I provided them, but anything I wanted to edit, they worked with me to form the perfect itinerary for the time we were there. Jamal provided information on all things we would need to travel to Tanzania including travel visas, packing tips, information on the Safari, what to expect, and images/videos of safaris that had just ended. Upon arrival, they had a driver waiting for us at the airport to make our transfer to Arusha seamless!
The night of arrival, we had a customer support representative, Catherine, reach out to us to introduce herself and ensure we had everything we needed. Throughout the trip, she was extremely responsive (within minutes) for any questions we had.
As for the safari itself, words cannot express how incredible it was! Our guide, Kelvin Mbise, was the best guide we could have possibly gotten. We did a private safari so it was my wife and I with Kelvin the entire time. Kelvin explained everything that was Tanzania specifically Arusha, each park we went to, the different tribes, and provided information on everything we asked him. Once we hit the parks, Kelvin knew every single spot to take us to in order to maximize our experience. Put it this way, we really only had 3 days to fit Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro in and Kelvin found a way to allow us to see The Big Five, and also three brother cheetahs, unlimited zebras, elephants, hippos, giraffes, hyenas, wildebeests, a crocodile, and several other animals. When I say he found these animals, we were within a few feet of the majority including a mother lion and her cub just after a hunt. Kelvin ensured we had all the photos we wanted and more information on this than we could have imagined! Each day, Kelvin had lunch for us in a picnic area that had an incredible view. He had our vehicle stocked with water, soda, juice, beer and wine each day and was willing to stop anywhere along the way for restroom breaks.
The accommodations each night well exceeded expectations and the food was outstanding. There were either bonfires or shows each night after dinner and the staff was very friendly.
If you’re looking for an experience you will never forget, go with Safari Soles! Also, request Kelvin as your guide. Trust me, you won’t regret it!

Vibrant, friendly, beautiful country
A superb mini safari with Gatsio Safaris to Murchison Falls which included a Nile Cruise and visit to the Ziwa Rhino sanctuary.
Not very crowded and a wonderful array of wildlife in the park. Beautiful Lodge at Pakuba Safari Lodge

Great customer service and knowledgeable staff.
The staff were very reliable, knowledgeable and excellent
Great customer service from the airport to the hotels and lodges. Myriad Travel made My trip smooth and very enjoyable. Their prices too are very friendly. My memories of my stay in Kenya are still fresh. Thanks Myriad Travel.
Expert, conscientious, attentive, generous and confident.
Fuhara understood immediately the sort of tour we needed on a very hot day. Timing was meticulous and organisation was without fuss. The young men who assisted us to get through borders without any issues, visit David Livingstone Museum, drop us off at Royal Livinstone hotel for lunch and lead us on a splendid walking tour of Victoria Falls NP at the right time just as the evening was approaching and the rainbows came and went! Highly recommend their efficiency and friendly service.

Dreamlike Tanzania
We were met at Kilimanjaro Airport by our guide and driver, Alex. He immediately impressed us with his friendly manner and excellent German skills. The tour took us to Karatu, Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, and on to the Serengeti. Alex always made every effort to fulfill our wishes. We highly recommend Alex for a trip of this kind.

Exceeded our expectations wonderfully.
Carefully carried around Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli by a great driver and guide Sammy. Esther who organised the safari, laid on treats and surprises for us as it was our 40th wedding anniversary. She kept in touch and the trip was wonderful. Simply outstanding.
