5/5

We had an incredible safari experience in Tanzania! Although our trip was relatively short, it was packed with amazing wildlife, beautiful scenery, and unforgettable moments. Our guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Seeing the animals in their natural environment was something our family will never forget. Tanzania is truly a special place, and we only wish we had more time. Highly recommend!

Excellent Adventure & Great Value
5/5

I received 3 competitive quotes via Safaribookings.com and after careful review I selected RO Scavengers. I chose them based on the selected itinerary and the quality of the camps that were featured and competitive pricing offered. Correspondence via e-mail was easy, and despite the time difference, all responses were very timely.

This trip was perfect for my grandson and I to enjoy unforgettable wildlife experiences. He is 15 and it was his first big trip out of the country and wow did it open his eyes to the world. His favorite animal is the Lion and we saw plenty. The itinerary was laid out carefully, such that each day got better and better. Day 1 at Tarangire we saw a Leopard and tons of other wildlife (elephants, giraffe, monkeys, etc.) Day 2 at Lake Manyara we saw more monkeys, Elephants up close, flamingos, plenty of other animals and beautiful scenery. Day 3 was primarily a transfer day but we got into Serengeti NP late in the afternoon and saw a few female lionesses with a cub perched upon a rock. Things really picked up on Day 4 in Serengeti where we saw Cheetahs, Lions, Hippos, and so much more. Day 5 was the absolute highlight in Ngorongora Crater, 5 minutes into our drive we saw 3 Rhinos! A few minutes later 3 large Male lions! We were up close and personal with everything include Ostrich, Zebra, Wildebeest, and so much more.

My wife and I had previously gone on a luxury safari in South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe, so I was a little uncertain how I would enjoy going with this more modestly priced mid-range safari. I was pleasantly surprised! On our previous experience we were shuffled from camp to camp by transfer drivers, at each camp put on shared game drive vehicles with 2-3 other couples. On this safari it was a private experience with the same Land Cruiser and Driver/Guide for the full 5 days. Our guide was knowledgeable, kind, friendly, and caring. Each camp was excellent, with good food and various amenities. 2 of our camps had swimming pools and monkeys running around. Another camp offered a sundowner cocktail hour and had zebras in the camp. We even got massages at one camp! All camps had power and WiFi. That was luxury enough for us!

I had an amazing experience with Safari Line Defender Tours. From the moment I made my booking until the end of the safari, everything was well organized and professionally handled. The team was friendly, responsive, and always willing to help.

The guides were knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about wildlife, making every game drive both exciting and educational. The itinerary was well planned, transportation was comfortable, and the accommodations exceeded my expectations.

What impressed me most was their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring every guest had a memorable experience. I felt safe, welcomed, and well taken care of throughout the trip.

I highly recommend Safari Line Defender Tours to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable safari experience in Kenya. Thank you for creating wonderful memories that will last a lifetime! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a wonderful experience with Tembea Discoveries Tours and Travel. From the planning stage until the end of our trip, David Manza and the team were professional, responsive, friendly, and very accommodating. Everything was well organized, and they made our family feel safe and well cared for throughout the journey.

As this was our first visit to Kenya and our first time in Africa, they made the experience truly memorable. We highly recommend Tembea Discoveries to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy travel company in Kenya. Thank you for the beautiful memories!

Cradle Tour
5/5

Rudzani was friendly and prompt to pick us up. The two destinations - The Wonder Cave and Maropeng visitors centre are must sees in the area - especially for anyone with an interest in geology, palentology or anthropology - and even if you don't now, you might have by the end of the tour. The drive there and back felt safe and was interesting driving past Pretoria.

Very professional and came up with the best accommodation options
5/5

We visited Tanzania in July 2026, as a group of nine people for a 7-day safari.

We had an amazing time with the best guides, Emmanuel and Tony. They were always cheerful and helpful, providing a lot of useful information during the trip. They were also willing to adjust the schedule according to our needs and were very professional in general. We really hope they get the reward they deserve for the incredible job they do!

Our operator ensured that everything was well-organized in advance and chose the best options for us at a reasonable price. The package covered everything: accommodation (including some nice tented camps), food, snacks, drinks and of course the safari itself.

Spectacular experience! Special thanks to our driver Amani Mahanga!
5/5

I made the 4 days safari, Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, it was incredible! Absolutely worthy to stay in lodges, way more comfortable than the public camping that have no electricity and poor showers/toilets facilities. Amani our driver was amazing. So skillful and efficient, get as to see all the animals we expected to see, we were also very lucky to find them all. And some from very close! He always respectful of the rules, and always with a smile.
I payed u$s1350 and I think it was great value for that money.
The only thing I can call is that the car was a bit old, very noicy and not so clean. A better more newer car would have made the experience even better.

(I will not recommend this for small kids. It can be tiring so many hours a day of driving)

Beyond our expectations - Such a great experience!
5/5

It’s been a week since we came back from our trip, and we still can’t get over it. What a fantastic local safari company!

From the very first time I requested information, Mike was incredibly fast, attentive, and helpful. He listened to our requirements and helped us customise our 10-day trip exactly the way we wanted.

Ezequiel was waiting for us at Arusha airport and made sure we arrived at the hotel in time for dinner, even though our flight arrived late. Matar was also great, picking us up and dropping us off at Zanzibar airport. Both of them were extremely friendly, kind, and helpful throughout our journey.

A huge thank you to Bernard, our partner in crime during the safari. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible, including the Big Five and the Great Migration — such an unforgettable experience. Some days he drove for many hours to ensure we reached our next hotel before sunset, always making us feel comfortable and well looked after. He made us feel like friends, not just tourists or clients. We shared so many laughs and conversations with him, and we truly felt that he cared about making our trip unforgettable.
We felt so at ease with him, and we were genuinely sad when our safari came to an end. We are still missing him!

Thank you to the whole team for making this trip such a special and unforgettable experience.

It was a tour that met my expectations.
5/5

The tour itself was good. Our guide did a great job driving from different angles so we could enjoy better views during the safari. He also remembered our request in advance and made sure we had comfortable seats, which we really appreciated. There was also drinking water and charging ports available in the vehicle, which was very convenient. Thank you for your thoughtful service.

One small suggestion is that a bit more communication during the tour would make the experience even better. Since many visitors hope to see the Big Five, a little more explanation would be nice.

I’m currently traveling around the world and have joined many tours in remote places. Separate from your company, I feel that Masai Mara itself has become a very commercialized tourist destination, but the overall system still has room for improvement. At the lodge, there was no hot water, and we were simply told to shower the next day without any alternative. At the buffet restaurant where we stopped, there was no food available for quite a while, so we had to wait before we could eat. During the safari, several jeeps also blocked the animals’ path. Also... I don’t think I would recommend visiting the Maasai village.
I hope the overall quality of the Masai Mara continues to improve. Also I wish your company continued success.
