Once in a lifetime magical experience with Simbaland!
Simbaland was the perfect choice for our honeymoon safari experience in Tanzania! It was our first time planning a trip to that side of the world and our tour coordinator - Heavenlight could not have been more helpful! She explained all options and cleared all doubts patiently, and made the booking process seamless. After arriving in Tanzania, we got everything that was discussed and beyond. From airport pickup to daily meals and the safari itself, everything was perfect with our guide Ali. Saw more lions than we could count! 100% recommend booking with Simbaland for a truly magical experience! We will be back :)

Very helpful and professional
We really enjoyed going on safari with Simbaland Magic tours! Maria had booked a perfect route for us and our guide Faustin were so happy, helpful and fun to be with. We have seen so many cool animals and learned a lot. A truly experience!

Experience driver for any terrain is key to a safe safari experience!
Our driver was very experienced he knew everyone and the ways around the roads and parks. We had a safe driving experience with Penda who has 16 years experience as a guide. You can ask him anything and he will have your answers but not too chatty at the same time which we appreciated during our long rides. Sometimes you just want to pass out and sleep or watch your shows with the headphones on right?
Penda actively looked for animals through the game drives. He never pushed to finish, rather the opposite. Most of the time we told him we can finish. He just wanted to make sure we saw a lot each day! He has killer eye sights too so follow what he says he sees and you’ll see the furthest thing. You can rely on him in everything from knowing the directions of the parks, knowledge of the animals, to how to maneuver the roads and keeping us and the car safe as we saw a lot of other Safari jeeps break down on the sides of the roads. He seems extremely helpful to others as well which shows the close knit good network of guides in this Safari community, always helping each other! I wasn’t worried at all because I knew others would help us too if our car broke down. We finished our 4 days in one piece and he accommodated us to the airport which we had a tight schedule to catch and safely arriving and sending us off.
From communication to then settling with the lodging that I wanted in the end, there must have been tons of adjustments and revisions the team had to do for me. I appreciate it very much! Thank you Mariam and her team and everyone who had the biggest smiles to greet us on Xmas day! Very hardworking team.
Even though we had previous Safari experiences in other African countries, this was an unforgettable experience. Simbaland made a lot of flexibility for us and Penda made us a pleasant journey. Thank you and highly recommend !
Awesome safari guide
We are writing to wholeheartedly recommend John Menri, a safari driver and guide with Simbaland Magic Tours. John was an exceptional part of our safari experience, and his professionalism, knowledge, and calm demeanor made our time in the bush truly unforgettable and ‘the trip of a lifetime.’
From the moment we set out each day, John demonstrated remarkable wildlife knowledge and tracking skills. He consistently anticipated animal movements, read tracks with precision, and knew exactly where to position the vehicle to give us the best—and safest—viewing and photo taking opportunities. Thanks to his expertise, we saw wildlife encounters we would have otherwise missed, including several animals that are notoriously difficult to find. Example: one time we pulled over slowly while other safari vehicles whizzed by, and John pointed out quietly - "There's a leopard in that tree. See? There."
John was also incredibly adaptable. He listened closely to our interests and priorities for each outing and tailored our drives accordingly. Whether we wanted to focus on predators, birdlife, or simply enjoy a slower, more scenic route, he made sure the experience matched our expectations while still maximizing our chances for memorable sightings.
Perhaps most importantly, John maintained a calm, attentive, and friendly presence throughout our journey. He's an interesting, intelligent person. When you spend several days in a bouncy, dusty vehicle with someone it helps that they are someone you can have an interesting conversation with.

A special thanks to Maria, who prepared our entire program with great attention to detail. She was always supportive, responsive, and made sure every part of our trip was well arranged.
We also want to appreciate our guide, who was an outstanding driver and a very knowledgeable guide. He made our safari safe, enjoyable, and unforgettable.
