Safari trip with great guides/drivers
This review is for Omary who wasn’t my guide for the safari but was my driver back to Arusha on my final day of the safari. He was polite and gregarious with a great sense of humour and was a great driver to end the trip with.

Best safari!
Me and my girlfriend booked our safari and zanzibar beach holiday with serengeti smile and we couldnt have asked for a better experience. Baraka was great when organising the trip and always responded to my whatsapp and emails promptly. We needed to make a late change and add an extra day due to our return flight being cancelled by the airline and this was quickly added on with no issues. We had George as our safari guide and we couldn't have asked for better! He was extremely knowledgeable both about all the animals we see plus tanzania in general. He helped us see all the big 5 plus two river crossings! George was also a pleasure to spend time with and he made our safari a trip of a lifetime! All the hotels and tented camps that we stayed at were excellent and again we couldn't have asked for better. Our transfers in Zanzibar were always on time with no issues. The whole trip ran extremely smoothly, i highly recommend serengeti smile and will definitely be using them again myself.

Wondeful Experience!
We had an amazing experience doing a 9 day journey with See Endless Adventures.
We visited Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongo Crater with Kindu and Geraldy as our driver/guide. Then we went to Mto wa Mbu town for a cultural tour with Priska as our guide. Finally, we took some days on Zanzibar Island... All our guides were extremely kind, fun, and knowledgeable. Everything was incredible!!!
The tour was fantastic in every way exploring unforgettable places and it was a lovely personal touch to meet Hamis on our arrival who provide all the necessary details. The hot lunches were one of the highlights of our tour and all accommodations were exceptional. Justin was very helpful since the beginning to personalize our tour and responded all our questions. We had the best time of our lives!
We would certainly recommend this company... Asante Sana!!

unforgettable wildlife experience
We booked the safari on relatively short notice, but from the very first interaction, Meru Slopes made us feel well taken care of. Our inquiry was handled promptly, and they were very accommodating to our wishes and our (student-friendly) budget. Daniel was an outstanding safari guide! With over 20 years of experience, he shared a wealth of knowledge, offering insightful explanations and fascinating stories throughout the journey. Despite the bumpy roads of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, we always felt completely safe with him.
Accompanying us was the amazing chef, Johana, who treated us to the most delicious Tanzanian cuisine for three days straight. Every meal was a delight, and we’re already dreaming of getting our hands on those recipes! The itinerary was perfectly organized, making the most of our time – we saw an incredible variety of wildlife and had two unforgettable nights camping under the stars. Even while being surrounded by the wilderness, we always felt secure and well looked after.
The care didn't stop at the end of the safari: Herrmann ensured a smooth and comfortable transfer from Arusha to Kilimanjaro Airport. The entire experience was seamless from start to finish, with great service and personal attention every step of the way. We can wholeheartedly recommend the safari tour with Daniel and Johana – it was truly an experience of a lifetime!

Wonderful experience
It was an amazing experience. Was at Nairobi National Park on 8th/04/2024 and the experience is still memorable. The animals i saw were the real ones.... not the ones i see in pictures, movies and diagrams. am yet to meet someone who has ever touched the neck of a giraffe, let alone its thigh.... This thing is really loooooooong. best experience was our great driver. patient, accurate and punctual.... no mistakes. the drive was BEAUTIFUL....

Very responsible, punctual and reliable
Because I was an alone girl it was very important for me to join a trustable group and after searching many safaris I decided to contact this group. From the very first they were cooperative and helpful and they led me step by step to get online visa and check my flights with me. After arriving to the airport they came and picked me and went to the office and I saw the office and very welcoming staff 🙃.
And my safari started with other people from other countries like Spain, USA and Germany. I loved our group and especially our driver Muses that was a great driver, very polite and responsible and he tried his best that we could see many animals from the very near to the car. I spent 8 days safari and saw many beautiful places in Kenya and even I spent 2 nights beside the beach in mombasa and I can say Kenya is paradise and the people who live there are from heaven ❤️
Don't miss visiting Kenya and don't miss this nice , professional and reliable group 👏 👍

8 day safari / big migration
Going to Serengeti to see the wildlife was my childhoods dream. We just came back from this, one of a lifetime, epic safari. Our guide Innocent was the best ever. He listened very well what we expected from this trip and then just made it all happen. He was able to find the big 5, the ugly 5 and the beautiful 5. But not only that, we had thrilling experiences, like lionesses attacking wildebeest, attacking rhinos, we had to save a cheetah with het babies from 3 lions and we saw the big migration, but not just once, multiple times, and one of those was a crossing from over 2 or 3000 wildebeest, soooo emotional !!! Innocent speaks English and French perfectly. He's the best ! 😍 Zuria put our itinerary together. She did a great job ! Everything was perfectly organised 👍
We came back with our eyes and hearts full ! We definitely recommend Safari Soles but even more our guide Innocent Richard Mushi

Perfect organization, competent, friendly and fast
Making a safari trip to Africa was our wish for a long time. When we started to realize it, we first contacted several agencies in Europe (where we live). In addition we checked the offers by agencies in Botswana. Based on feedback by other customers, we chose Savanna Safaris and Tours. Soon we discovered that they are much more knowledgeable and responsive compared to agencies in Europe.
Our contact was Emmelyn, who answered very competently and friendly our mails within hours. She helped us to organize a perfect trip in following lodges: Saguni Safari, Jumbo Junction, Camp Savuti, Cresta Resort and Insika Lodge. Each of them is in a different part of Botswana (with different animals and vegetation to observe). Insika is in Victoria Falls. All lodges offered very comfortable accommodation, perfect staff and guides, very good food. We took small planes to travel between lodges in order to avoid driving on bumpy roads.
Emmelyn, thank you in the name of all four members of our group for enabling this fantastic vacation.

Very professional and reliable, transparent communication, and respectful to the animals
We enjoyed a 8-day trip with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions and saw not only the Big 5 but a lot of other animals and the beautiful nature. Everything worked as described, incl. payment, hotel reservations and airport transfers. There were some changes regarding the hotels but we were actively informed before our trip started and the alternative hotels were even better than the initial ones. Really appreciated the transparency.
If James is your driver, you are lucky. He is very experienced and respectful to the animals.
If we go back to Tanzania, we will definitely book another tour with Tanzania Roadside Expeditions.

Excellent service during a perfect safari - reliable company
We had a five days safari in Masaai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Park Amboseli and another four days in Tanzania, all booked together.
From the first minutes we felt that we were in good hands.
We received all the necessary information from our reliable contacts David and Susan.
They always replied quickly to our questions, organized everything for us, gave us good ideas and always asked for feedback of our satisfaction.
I strongly recommend them to everyone who search for a holiday without surprices!
