The most memorable tour ever❤️
5/5

I would highly recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. From the very beginning, I was impressed by how professional and friendly everyone was. Months before our trip, the communication was excellent — our itinerary was customized exactly as we wanted, all costs were clearly explained, and we knew exactly what to expect upon arrival.

We spent 10 unforgettable days on safari, starting in Tarangire, through the Ngorongoro Crater, and finishing in Central and North Serengeti. Every lodge we stayed in was beautiful, spotless, and run by incredibly kind staff.

Our guide, Oscar, was simply amazing — passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely engaged. He not only shared fascinating insights about the wildlife but also told us so much about Tanzanian culture. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better guide ❤️

The lunches kept getting better every day, and the entire trip was perfectly organized. Everything ran smoothly and on time, yet there was always flexibility — if we wanted to leave earlier, later, or stop along the way, it was never a problem. The safari vehicle was reliable, cleaned daily, and super comfortable.

We saw all the animals we had hoped to — often from up close — and it truly felt like a dream come true. Thank you so much for making this trip so special. We will never forget it!❤️❤️

Best trip of our life with best guide, Willy!
5/5

We had an unforgettable honeymoon safari experience thanks to Soul of Tanzania and our amazing guide, Wilbard "Willy" Kivuyo. Our journey designer, Marta, helped us customize the level of accomodation for each stop, which allowed us to be specific with our preferences and cost, which was unique to Soul of Tanzania. We also appreciated the detailed itinerary that she created. One of the biggest things we were nervous about leading up to the safari, no matter which company we chose, was who our guide would end up being. If you're spending 7 days on the road with someone, you'd want it to be with a guide like Willy! He's a joy to be around and we appreciated his sense of humor and positive energy — he was somehow always upbeat even after hours of driving on bumpy roads and long travel days. We were grateful to have such an experienced guide. He's been doing this for years and guiding runs in his family. This meant Willy knew where to look for animals while also avoiding getting stuck behind other tour groups. He was always sharing interesting, fun facts and was flexible based on what we wanted to see/do. We saw all the animals we could have ever hoped for and it was a truly magical, life-changing experience! We made the choice to travel to the northern Serengeti in hopes of seeing the Great Migration. Without having to wait long we saw not one, but two incredible wildebeest crossings. Willy got us great viewing positions and it made the extra driving so worth it... just WOW!

We were also very satisfied with the accommodations. The staff, views, comfort, and cleanliness were second to none. We just wish we had more time at each lodge and that is the one thing we would've done differently. We pretty much stayed only one night in each lodge and it made for some long drives. Some of the travel times quoted in the itinerary were shorter than in reality, so that could be improved as it may have changed some of our travel decisions.

While this safari was definitely a splurge, we spent every second in awe and are so thankful to Willy, Soul of Tanzania, and each lodge for making it an unforgettable experience. We are fortunate to travel a lot and we both agreed that this was hands down our favorite trip ever, and one we won't soon forget!

TOP NOTCH 6-DAY SAFARI EXPERIENCE
5/5

6-day safari including Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti Central.

Very professional and efficient journey designer (Jose) helped tailoring this safari to our needs months before we landed in Tanzania. From selection of parks to lodges, to duration of stay in each place - all was discussed, we received insightful information and advice and were able to make this safari our exclusive trip, not a copy-paste of a brochure.

On the ground, everything was smooth and well organized making it a highly enjoyable experience. Needless to say we did see the Big 5 and more, and discovered a variety of ecosystems. Observing a leopard in a tree less than 5 meters away will stay in our memories and hearts forever - and this was just one of many magical moments.

When you spend 8 to 10 hours with your chauffeur/guide every day for 6 days in a row ... he'd better be good. Ours (Wilson) was outstanding: experienced, knowledgeable, flexible, open to conversation on Tanzanian culture ... a WOW factor for sure!

Nimali lodges in both Tarangire and central Serengeti are great premium choices, very comfy, excellent food.

In a nutshell, Soul of Tanzania know their turf, can be trusted, and definitely delivered on expectations for us (and we are quite demanding and used to luxury travel around the world)

Transparent, Flexible, Fantastic
5/5

It was a fantastic time! Everything was customised to our needs, from the time in each location, accommodation options, and our guide...everything. I especially appreciated how they conducted themselves during the sales process. I spoke with six companies, and I had the best feeling with Soul of Tanzania. Many other companies were limited to which accommodations they worked with, but SoT seemed very flexible. In fact, I accidentally booked a year ahead, and at the last minute, they reorganised the entire trip in only a day (during high season) to make it work. They were also very transparent in their pricing, which was great. I would highly recommend them.

Amazing 5 day safari in Tanzania
5/5

It was our honeymoon and we went on a private 5 day safari tour (just us and the guide in the car). Overall, we absolutely loved the experience!
Our guide, Denis Moshi, was truly amazing — always cheerful, available, and very attentive. The food was excellent, both lunches and dinners.

The first lodge was spectacular (Mawe Mawe Manyara Lodge), especially the room, which had a pool and an incredible view of the elephants. We also really liked the second accommodation (Enkirari Camp).
However, we do not recommend the third one. When you’re given a choice for Ngorongoro, don’t pick Embalakai — it’s located on top of a mountain with extremely strong winds, the tent makes a lot of noise shaking, and it’s impossible to sleep with all the banging!

We saw lots of animals and only missed the rhinoceros from the Big Five.
Four to five days seemed like the perfect length for a safari.

We’ve been recommending Soul of Tanzania to all our friends and family!
