A journey that touched our hearts – truly unforgettable
5/5

Our safari in Tanzania was so much more than a trip – it was a deeply moving experience that fascinated us, touched us emotionally, and will stay with us forever. Even now, we look back on these days with gratitude, awe, and a big smile on our faces.

The 5-day safari through Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara was absolutely breathtaking. Each park had its own unique character and beauty. Seeing these incredible animals in their natural habitat – free, wild and unfiltered – was something words can hardly describe. Every game drive felt special, every sighting like a gift. It was raw, real and unbelievably beautiful.

But one of the most special parts of this journey has a name: Richard.
Our guide was truly exceptional. His warm personality, great sense of humor and incredibly extensive knowledge about wildlife, nature and Tanzania made this safari extraordinary. You could feel his deep love for his job in every single moment – and that passion was absolutely contagious. We laughed a lot, learned so much and felt completely taken care of the entire time.

When our luggage did not arrive upon arrival, Richard immediately took responsibility for the situation and helped us in the most supportive and caring way imaginable. He stayed calm, reassured us and did everything he could to assist us – far beyond what one could expect. We are incredibly grateful for that.

When our time together came to an end, we were honestly very sad. Saying goodbye to Richard was not easy at all. In such a short time, you really grow close – and that connection, along with these memories, will stay with us forever.

The organization Nkollo Safari Tours also deserves the highest praise. From the very beginning, communication was excellent. Mercy was absolutely outstanding – always reachable, incredibly kind and attentive. She regularly checked in with us, asked how we were doing, if everything was okay, and took care of any concerns we had. You don’t feel like a customer – you feel genuinely cared for.

The accommodations were mostly fantastic.
The first hotel, Njiro Climax, wasn’t entirely to our taste, but that is probably a matter of personal preference.
Eileen’s Trees Inn was wonderful – delicious food, extremely friendly and attentive staff, beautiful and clean rooms, and a lovely property overall.
The overnight stays in the camps inside the national parks were an absolutely unforgettable experience. Both Tukaone Hembe Camp and Safari Haven Migration Camp completely exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, the food was excellent, and sleeping in these unique tents in the middle of nature was simply magical. We never expected to enjoy it this much – it was authentic, peaceful and truly special.
Our final night at Njiro Legacy was also a great experience and a perfect way to end the trip.

The 6th day, including the Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour, and hot springs, was beautiful and very interesting. Looking back, however, we would personally recommend doing this tour at the beginning of the trip. After the intense and unforgettable safari experiences, we almost wished we had added another safari day instead. The hot springs themselves are visually stunning, but the atmosphere there felt a bit uncomfortable at times, as we felt watched and frequently approached. Perhaps we were just unlucky that day – but we wanted to mention it honestly.

The Maasai village visit is something we personally would not book again. While the people were friendly and you do get a small insight into their culture, our group was intentionally separated during the visit, and the sales pressure afterward felt uncomfortable and unauthentic. The aggressive selling and the way money was handled left us with a strange feeling. For us, it is not a must-do if we were to give recommendations.

That being said, none of this takes away from the safari itself.
The safari days were absolutely once-in-a-lifetime experiences. The wildlife, the landscapes, the emotions, the laughter – these memories will stay with us forever.

A heartfelt thank you to Richard, Mercy, and Nkollo Safari Tours for creating a journey that we will carry in our hearts for the rest of our lives. If you are considering a safari in Tanzania: book it – and book it exactly like this.

Awesome experience
5/5

Awesome experience with Nkollo tours and Derick as our tour guide.
Me and my family had a 4 days safari with Nkollo tours last week and everything was perfect.
The highlight of the tour was our guide Derick, during the 2 days of safari in Nautu region he showed us all the possible big cats and animals.
It was impressive to see leopards, cheetahs with cubs, lions and hunting scenes in few hours in the park.
Everything was organized at the perfection and with high professionalism with high level lodges, I suggest to choose this local company for your vacation and ask for Derick as your guide.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Incredibly attentive, professional, and kind
5/5

You’d be crazy to book with anyone else. I’ve traveled a lot - and quite a bit through Africa - and Nkollo is one of my best experiences. Genuinely.

From the beginning, Mercy was quick to respond and point me in the right direction. She answered all my questions and made sure all the payments and invoices were clear as well.

John was our guide and was exceptional. He took us to the best spots, was so friendly and professional. Importantly, for those who want an authentic and responsible guide, he respects nature. When other companies went illegally off path - cutting animals’ ability to hunt or stressing them - he found the best spots AND respected the animals and nature. This is so important for the experience and for the continued viability of these incredible parks.

And they are Tanzanian owned! You can’t go wrong! BOOK BOOK BOOK!

unforgettable 4-day safari in the Serengeti with Nkollo Tours & Safaris
5/5

We had an unforgettable 4-day safari in the Serengeti with Nkollo Tours & Safaris. Our guide, Emmanuel, was simply amazing—a charming, calm, and patient guy who answered every single question we had. His professional knowledge of the wildlife and nature made the experience truly special. We felt in good hands the entire time. Highly recommended!"

Amazing Safari
5/5

Our safari (4 days/3 nights Tarangire-Serengeti-Ngorongoro) was carefully planned by Mercy based on all our requests. To be honest, we really liked their program.
The accommodations they chose for us were of a good standard and the service offered was in line with our travel philosophy... We want to have the right level of comfort, but without going overboard.
The facilities gave us the right mix of hospitality, service, and food, and the tented camp was a fantastic experience.
Goody, our guide, although young, is very reliable and an excellent driver.
Our Jeep perfectly meets our standards of comfort.
