Great and professional service
Did two tours - Soweto half day and Pilanesberg full day. Both were well organized, tour guided went the extra mile to fulfill your wishes.
Check carefully the pickup times, this might vary.
A little tip is highly appreciated.
Overall great value for money.

Trip of a lifetime
The best way of experiencing Tanzania’s wonders. If you want a friendly, caring and impeccable kind of service, Easy Travel is the way to go! Our guide Gilbert did not rest until we saw everything we hoped to see and more, with consistent passion and professionalism. Him and his team, Edward, Santaely and Harry are the best guides ever and they are what made the trip special. Thank you all for the wonderful memories. Tutaonana!

Wonderful!
We traveled as a family of 3 for two weeks in Uganda and Tanzania. Our private guides Donald in Uganda and Joseph in Tanzania went above and beyond to provide our family with an excellent experience. It was hands off and Lush provided great accommodations and beautiful daily itineraries which included Gorilla trekking in Bwindi, QE park, beautiful Kazinga channel cruise, chimp sanctuary in Lake Victoria tour, Beautiful Serengeti, and Ngorongoro area. Highly recommend

A dream come true!
Soul of Tanzania delivered a perfect and unforgettable “trip of a lifetime” for us. I have been dreaming of going on safari in the Serengeti since I was a little girl and had very high expectations for this trip, all of which were exceeded. Soul of Tanzania quickly stood out as the company we should book with because they had prompt replies, a friendly demeanor, and higher level of customer service and detail than any of the other companies we were in communication with.
Our journey designer, Marta, was incredibly patient with us while crafting the vacation of our dreams and answering all our questions. To say I’m a planner is an understatement… our first contact with SOT was well over 18 months before our actual trip and Marta honestly must have answered a million questions!
We decided on a one-week northern circuit safari with a beach extension in Zanzibar. We started in Tarangire, went to the Serengeti next, and ended at the Ngorongoro Crater. Our guide, Francis, was a perfect fit for us, and did everything he could to ensure we were having a great time and were well taken care of. He is personable, cheerful, and very knowledgeable. It was clear he genuinely loves his job and was committed to making the trip special for us. Each morning we would be greeted with a high-five or a hug, and at the end of day he would review the plan for the following day so we would know what to expect. As someone who normally coordinates vacations and trips, I felt completely at ease and confident in Francis handling all the logistics once we arrived and was able to completely relax and unplug without worrying about anything. The sights were beautiful, the animals were abundant, and the entire experience was like a dream.
The accommodations we selected for the trip were all incredible and top notch! Arusha Villa Karamu Coffee Estate, Tarangire Nimali Camp, Melia Serengeti, Karibu Lions Paw, and Melia Zanzibar.
THANK YOU, FRANCIS AND MARTA!!! We are forever grateful to you both and look forward to our paths crossing again in the future.

Astounding
From start to finish I have had excellent communication and all questions answered efficiently leaving me with no doubts about the company.Lulu put together a package appropriate for my needs swiftly and ensured I was completely happy with it.The safari experience itself-truly unforgettable.I experienced Tanzanian hospitality from start to finish.Our guides both Iddy and Joseph were so knowledgable,spotted animals quickly and kept our groups spirits up.They were always smiling and truly made us feel like family.If that wasn’t enough we had a wonderful chef Bago who cooked us 3 meals a day which were so tasty and wholesome.I saw many other tourists eating cold lunches from food boxes whereas we got a warm freshly cooked lunch daily.The entire 7 day safari experience was worth every penny.I also want to mention Alan who picked me up from the airport and instantly made me feel at home.Also Kelvin who introduced me to Arusha and the markets. Geoffrey the main man came to meet us after our safari and made us feel once again like part of the Go Makini family.I came away feeling so deeply fulfilled and happy that I’d seen all the wildlife I wanted to see and of course blessed for the care I’d received.I can’t thank you enough Go Makini,your all truly amazing!

Sunnycreek Safaris offers a professional service of the highest quality.
From the beginning of my contact with Maureen at Sunnycreek Safaris I was put at ease. She responded quickly to my emails, and answered all of my questions. I travelled as a female by myself, and I can honestly recommend Sunnycreek Safaris to anyone who is considering traveling solo. You will be in safe hands, and experience Kenya and all that it has to offer to the full! Thank you for such an amazing experience!!! Charles, our guide was also extremely professional. He answered any questions we had of the wildlife or area, and he was accommodating of everyone who was on the safari. He is a very good driver and you will be in safe hands with him as your guide!

Everything was perfect
We really had a great experience with Going Green Safari. The communication before the tour was fast and reliable. We had a kind and flexible driver who took us safely to Mikumi and back. We had great experiences in the Maasai Village, the game drive and in Udzungwa Mountains. We highly recommend this 4-days tour to orhers. We are a family of 5 (three teenagers).

Just perfect!
Unforgettable.
I started asking for different quotes from various companies and, beyond the very well adjusted price, I chose Chalema (Joel) because of the customer service. He gave us his advice as a good expert in the area. We had read on the internet to go to Manyara and, with our 5 days of Safari, Joel told us that it was better to go to Tarangire, both for the time and for what we were looking for. It was a wise move to listen to him. He helped us with all the doubts and the management of the safari itself. He also helped us with flights from Arusha to Zanzibar, as well as various Zanzibar contacts in case we had any problems.
Once we arrived, Praygod, our guide, picked us up and we started the trip. We were very lucky because he drives phenomenally, he has experience in safaris and knows the animals very well (he explained the details of all the animals perfectly, such as the way they relate to each other, their curiosities, their food) and above all, his good attitude and positivity. He speaks English and French perfectly, it's a luxury.
On the other hand, we chose camping and not a lodge and it was the best choice because Erick came with us to cook. For us this was a very important part of the experience since we had a certain respect for the food that we could find. This cook is something out of the ordinary, we miss his food very much, the affection, the humility and the values he transmits, without a doubt ask Joel to put Erick as cook for you, it will be the best decision you can make.
They have definitely made my first safari such a spectacular experience that I am looking forward to repeating.
Asante sana Joel, Praygod na Erick :)
