Personalized & Customized!
Joe and Asili Explorer is a local safari operator with a vast knowledge of all the national parks in Tanzania - particularly the Serengeti.
Asili has one car, which means that you will have a very private, personalized, and customized tour that suits exactly the kind of safari you and your loved ones or friends want. When you book with Asili, you can be assured that you're getting one-on-one attention to detail.
While inside the park, we observed other tours where the cars were full of random samplings of people. Can you imagine having to share such an expensive vacation with strangers who have different priorities for what they want to do/see? It would be very stressful and not as amazing.
What you get with Asili is a local guide and driver who has developed and maintained personal relationships with the various lodges, tented camps, park staff, and restaurateurs all over the country of Tanzania. If you choose Tanzania for your safari, you should choose Asili.
Joe is very friendly, knowledgeable, and prepared for multiple contingencies. He comes prepared with lots of water, medicine, and even provides coffee and wine options for those interested - he brings his own wine glasses and coffee mugs. His business is a family business, and at the end of the tour, my wife and I were invited over to his home to share a meal with his lovely wife and children. That's the kind of experience you'll get with Asili: personal, customized, caring, friendly.
You can't go wrong (unless you choose a different tour company).

Safari Infinity 9 Day Safari
Safari Infinity is excellent for so many reasons. I began with 10 companies, narrowed it down to 3 and chose Safari Infinity. The company is based in Tanzania and created by a guide, Simon Kombe, and is wife, Lucia who met him as her guide when she went on safari! They travel the camps and know each of their upsides and downsides. They treat their guides well which makes for happy guides. Lucia answered every question and went on to give me additional information and suggestions to look into. Out of all the companies I started with, Lucia remained polite, patient, and without judgment and I could “hear” the excitement in her responses. She was quick to respond to emails, and there were many! The trip was truly privately customized!
We were met by our visa specialist right off the plane and whisked through the process then met our driver who took us straight to our hotel. We gave ourselves a day in Arusha just in case there were any flight issues. Our guide met us that day and we visited The Tanzanite Experience and The Cultural Heritage Museum, then we went to a local restaurant for lunch. Lucia and Simon, along with their toddler, Emma, met us there; they are a wonderful family!
The next day Kelly picked us up an we began our safari. The vehicle was amazing – spacious, clean, comfortable with extra pillows on the seat and back/neck pillows. My husband has neck issues and I have back issues and Lucia also included 2 extra pillows which was a great help as well. Additionally, I noticed that the first two windows behind the driver were panoramic and open top to bottom, rather than to the side-to-side which is a smaller opening. The larger opening made taking photos easier as well as allowing the breeze of fresh air in. There was a cooler filled with drinks, binoculars for each of us, a charging station, pockets to put everyday items in, and bean bags for camera support. The top opened so that we could stand up for excellent views and picture taking while shading us from the sun.
We specifically asked for Kelly Matemu as our guide. Wow – an exceptional human being; committed, enthusiastic, patient, persistent, warm, friendly, funny and brilliant in his knowledge of wildlife behavior! I believe a guide and make your safari exceptional and Kelly went above an beyond. It takes cooperation though – listen to your guide, wait for those special moments and stick around to absorb the animal behavior. Kelly knew each of the parks well; where to go to see specific animals – many off the well-traveled path. His ability to predict animal behavior was spot on which allowed us to see the animals in action. And, he also found the perfect picnic spots.
We visited Tarangire National Park, The Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and Central and Northern Serengeti. We stayed at Oliver’s Camp, Lemala Ngorongoro, Kiota Camp, and Lemala Kuria Hills. If you have specific questions – email me: [email protected]
This was a trip of a lifetime. From booking the tour to our safari with Kelly, the experience with Safari Infinity was clean, clear, smooth and exceptional.

Fantastic, very well looked after!
We were very pleased with this company and Giada in particular who has been amazing! She was so patient with us while going through all the various options in order to plan our trip. Her insights were invaluable in making the right choices of were to stay and things to do. Even when we had to make last minute changes to the itinerary due to flight delays or changing our tours due to weather conditions, Giada was available even after hours or weekends to help with everything we needed! She was truly fantastic and we had an amazing time throughout the whole trip. Everything went smoothly and she was there to help with changes when needed. Strongly recommended!!
