It was simply wonderful, exciting, and fun.
The Safehands guides were all very dedicated to making the most of the tour and ensuring we saw as many animals as possible. The itinerary—starting with Tarangire, then Ngorongoro, followed by two days in the Serengeti, and finally Lake Manyara—was perfect for us; we were able to spot a huge number of animals right away in Tarangire before the long journey to the Serengeti began. In the Serengeti, we experienced both a sunset and a sunrise, complete with spectacular skies, wildlife, and even hot-air balloons on the horizon. There was always plenty of food and drink, catering to everyone’s tastes—from meat dishes to vegetarian options. The accommodations were also ideally located, placing us right in the heart of the action. Everyone was incredibly warm and helpful, always up for a friendly chat. The Fig Tree Lodge Camp stood out for its warmth and charm; guests are greeted with a lovely song-and-dance performance upon arrival and receive a friendly welcome from the head chef in the evening. All in all, it was a truly wonderful and unforgettable trip. While not everything was absolutely perfect, that isn't necessary on a journey involving camping in the African savanna. A huge thank you to the team for making this happen day after day and for always staying "pole pole" (relaxed and unhurried), even when hitches occurred. Hakuna Matata.

Good communication and great value
We did the 4 day safari tour to serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire including flights from and back to Zanzibar. It was very well organised and the communication was good. They managed to show us all of the Big Five and a lot of other animals too. For the nights we had 1 luxury tent, 1 tented camp where you could hear the zebras chewing and 1 lodge. All of them met our expectations.

Well organized safari, we saw a lot of animals (the big 5)
We really enjoyed our adventure. We booked a 4-day safari with Safehandz Safaris and are very satisfied. The 4-day trip was just right for us. We saw the entire Big Five. We spent two days in the Serengeti, one day in the Ngorongoro Crater, and one day in Tarangire National Park. The cook who prepared our meals during the trip made the most delicious dishes—thank you, Timo. We would recommend this to everyone.

Above expectations
The communication was very excellent before the trip and even after the trip has finished. The operator insured we have arrived safely. Tindos made sure I had a good tour at Arusha in my free morning by taking me freely to visit the cultural art centre and exchanging great information about the Safari and the country. It was very lovely.

Fast and good communication, well organized, a great organization.
We booked a 5-day budget group camping safari directly through Safehands via the internet, including return flights to and from Zanzibar for our family (my wife, our 19-year-old daughter, our 17-year-old son, and myself). We were able to choose the exact travel dates, and communication with Safehands, especially Santos, was excellent from start to finish.
When we arrived in Arusha, we were met by a Safehands representative and taken by taxi to the meeting point, where we joined the other participants in a 4x4 safari vehicle. As is common with group safaris, our group was combined with another tour operator. Fortunately, we had a fantastic group, which made the experience even more enjoyable for everyone.
Unfortunately, after the first day I became ill and decided to stay behind alone after our first night at the campsite. Thankfully, I felt much better the following day, but the challenge was how to rejoin the group. By then they were already deep in the Serengeti, a very long distance away. On the afternoon of the third day, Safehands managed to arrange a private 4x4 transfer to the Ngorongoro campsite (for an additional fee), allowing me to reunite with my family. Sadly, this meant I missed the Serengeti.
I really appreciated the way Safehands helped and supported me during this difficult situation. My family thoroughly enjoyed the Serengeti safari, even though the vehicle broke down a few times. That was simply part of the adventure and can happen with other companies as well, since many safari vehicles are older and the road conditions are extremely rough, with countless bumps and potholes.
The final two safari days, when I was able to join again, were fantastic and went smoothly without any further problems. After the safari, Safehands also arranged our transfer back to the airport.
Overall, we were very satisfied. We had a wonderful safari experience, were happy to leave a generous tip, and would like to thank Safehands for organizing such a memorable trip. Thank you, Safehands, for this amazing safari!
