Wonderful Safari
We were hesitant to book with Toilo Safari at first because it seemed like a new and small company. However, after reading a few excellent reviews, we decided to trust them and give them a chance and we’re so glad we did.
From the beginning, Julius was incredibly kind, responsive, and helped us plan a fantastic safari. He personally picked us up from the airport and made sure everything was well organized. Our guide, Khaleed, was outstanding. His knowledge of wildlife and his ability to spot animals were amazing. Thanks to him, we saw so many animals and had an unforgettable safari experience.
The food throughout the trip was excellent, and we especially loved trying the delicious local dishes like ugali amd pilau. Every part of the safari exceeded our expectations.
Based on the exceptional service we received, we highly recommend them. They are professional, reliable, and offer excellent value for money. We would definitely book with them again.

Life changing safari experience - Highly recommend Daniel Mbise
Just finished an incredible 10-day safari in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Daniel Mbise was the most knowledgeable and experienced guide we could have asked for. He taught us so much about the wildlife, local culture, and history. His spotting skills on our game drives were amazing, we saw multiple lions, leopards, cheetahs and even a rhino! As a photographer, I was especially grateful that Daniel was very patient and helped me to get the best angles for shots.
The entire trip was very well planned by Meru Slopes. Kelvin was super responsive and answered my many questions and fully customized the itinerary to fit exactly what we wanted. The accommodations felt luxurious, the food was excellent, and we got to see pretty much everything on our bucket list. I highly recommend booking with Meru Slopes and asking for Daniel Mbise!

Great value!
Our journey with safehands was perfect! From Ngorongoro Safari to hiking Materuni village in Moshi. Friendly, professional and very helpful all the way. Will definitely be back for more adventures with them.

Courteous and fun giving excellent info and the best at finding hidden gems
They were absolutely brilliant—from meeting us at the border to organizing safaris, waterfall excursions, hot springs, and cultural experiences around Kilimanjaro. Extremely courteous and highly knowledgeable, they even went out of their way to find a unique restaurant serving exceptional gazelle meat. Highly recommended for their outstanding service and expertise.

Magical Trip in Tanzania
I recently had the incredible pleasure of exploring Tanzania with Safehands Safaris, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire trip was flawlessly organized, professionally managed, and truly unforgettable.
Our itinerary covered some of the most stunning highlights of the region. Witnessing the breathtaking wildlife of the Ngorongoro Crater was a dream come true, made even better by our guide’s deep knowledge and ability to spot animals we would have surely missed on our own. Beyond the safari, the cultural experience at Materuni Village and the refreshing hike to the waterfall provided a wonderful look into local life and nature, while relaxing in the turquoise waters of the Chemka Hot Springs was the perfect way to unwind.
The logistics were seamless, and we felt well-cared for throughout our entire journey. We stayed in a great selection of accommodations across Karatu, Moshi, and Arusha, all of which provided the comfort we needed after our daily adventures.
If you are looking for a tour operator that combines professionalism, local expertise, and a genuine passion for showcasing the beauty of Tanzania, look no further than Safehands Safaris. They made this trip one of the highlights of my year!

Amazing experience
Great experience overall! The tour was well organized, and I really enjoyed getting to experience the local culture. My favorite parts were visiting the village and the hike, both were unforgettable and gave us a chance to see the area from a different perspective. The guides were friendly and made the whole experience enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a mix of adventure and authentic local experiences.

Helpful and friendly
I'd rate my experience overall as about 4.5 so rounding up. Given the chance, I would book the trip again as it was great at a very good price compared to the other quotes I received.
We booked a 12 day safari for my two kids (10 & 9) and I which covered Samburu, Ol Pejeta, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Hell's gate.
Overall we were happy with camp selection which included Samburu Intrepids (our least favorite), Maisha Sweetwaters (our favorite), Mara Intrepids, and Lake Naivasha Sopa. See my Google reviews of each for more details.
Our guide was Charles and he did a great job driving and finding us all the animals (we saw the big five and lots more). He was good with the kids and very accommodating.
Henry helped us book the trip and was helpful in answering questions and making adjustments to the plan. Overall communication before and during the trip was fine.
The one thing I would change, and that I would have been willing to pay a bit more for, would be a vehicle with a better suspension. The one we were in was pretty rough and you felt every bump which there are so many. One day we took a balloon safari and got picked up in a similar model vehicle but the suspension was so much better and made the bumps much gentler. Additionally the drive between Ol Pajeta to Masai Mara was very long (over 11 hours) and bumpy. Having a nicer vehicle would have made it more pleasant but I would consider booking flights for this one transit.

Understanding, friendly and honest
The game drives were exceptional, with incredible opportunities to see a wide variety of wildlife in their natural habitat. Watching the vast Serengeti plains come alive with animals was truly breathtaking, and our guide was knowledgeable, professional, and eager to share fascinating insights about the wildlife and ecosystem.

Exceptional
We just got back from our first 10 day Kenya Safari and we couldn’t be happier. From the moment we contacted James from Sunny Creek Safari, they’ve shown impeccable customer service. During the one year period before the Safari we had to change our plans, requirements and schedule several times and James has been accommodating all our requests and provided us with recommendations and suggestions to customize our Safari for our needs.
Our safari was an unforgettable experience, largely thanks to our exceptional guide, John, From start to finish, the level of communication was top-notch, ensuring we always knew what to expect. His respect for both the wildlife and our family made us feel safe and well-cared for. Being curious tourists, and given it’s our first time in the country, we asked so many questions throughout those 10 days and John’s knowledge and compassion about wildlife, culture and Kenya in general showed through all his answers.
We can’t wait to go back to Kenya again and would highly recommend Sunny Creek Safari and John as your tour guide if you are planning your trip to Kenya anytime soon.
