Professional, reliable, and passionate about creating unforgettable safari experiences.
An unforgettable experience that we will always carry in our hearts!
A heartfelt thank you to our guide, Erik, and our driver, Joshua, whose professionalism, kindness, great experience, and sense of humor made our journey through the incredible Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the majestic Serengeti truly unforgettable.
We were incredibly lucky to see the Big Five, but every moment of the safari was exciting thanks to the amazing variety of wildlife. We saw zebras, gazelles, elephants, hyenas, giraffes, vultures, hippos, rhinos, and many other animals living freely in their natural habitat. It was a breathtaking experience that left us speechless.
A special thank you also goes to Godian for the excellent organization and for always being available to answer all our questions, making us feel supported and well taken care of from our very first contact.
Tanzania gave us memories and emotions that will stay with us forever. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable adventure!

Easy to talk to and plan your personalised safari
My girlfriend and I have just had the most amazing safari in Tanzania visiting 3 amazing parks. We booked with Serengeti smile and they were easy to talk to and very helpful at helping plan the safari package we wanted. The 3 parks made each day a very fun different experience. Our guide/driver Nicholas couldn’t have been any better friendly, fun, knowledgeable and a good driver which can be hard on the difficult roads. He taught us a lot of great facts about all the animals but also the culture of the places and people. Thanks to his help we managed to see the big 5 and many other once in a lifetime sights. Couldn’t recommend booking with Serengeti Smile and our driving Nicholas highly enough as combined they made our trip unforgettable.
Experienced, responsive & professional
Our guide, Nicholas, really made our trip unforgettable. He knew all the parks extremely well and was focused on helping us find and spot our favourite animals. He had extensive knowledge of all the animals but also the locations we were visiting helping us learn whilst on the move. He was always patient whilst we watched and allowed us the time to take as many photos as we wanted. His experience and passion for wildlife played a huge role in helping us spot not only the big 5 but many more animals we thought would be impossible to see.
After a change in plan, we managed to book our first ever safari trip with Serengeti smile only a couple of weeks before our trip. They were accommodating and professional in organising our perfect trip taking into consideration everything we wanted to do and see. With it being our first safari we didn’t know what to expect but this experience couldn’t have been any better.
Thank you Nicholas and Serengeti smile for the best trip

Excellent service and high cost performance
Customer service replies via WeChat are a bit slow. The safari guide was very professional and we were able to spot many animals. Additional services like the lunchbox could enhance the experience. Overall, it was a very good travel experience.

A Trip We Will Never Forget
We recently went on a safari and chose Serengeti Smile after reading consistently excellent reviews across multiple platforms, including SafariBookings, Google, and TripAdvisor. With so many local operators available, the choice can feel overwhelming, but from our very first inquiry, Serengeti Smile stood out. Fredrick was incredibly responsive, professional, and informative throughout the entire planning process. He helped us put together a fantastic itinerary, answered all of our questions promptly, and stayed in touch until the day we arrived. It was also a pleasure meeting him in person. Thank you again, Fredrick, for making everything so smooth and stress-free.
The only aspect we were less happy about was an additional surcharge requested about a month before the trip due to fuel price changes. While we understand that operating costs can fluctuate, receiving this request so close to departure was somewhat unexpected.
For our safari, we were paired with Deo as our guide, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Deo was absolutely outstanding. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about wildlife and conservation. From the moment we started our journey, he made sure we were comfortable, informed, and enjoying every moment.
Deo had an incredible eye for spotting animals and seemed to find wildlife that many others would have easily missed. He took the time to explain animal behavior, ecosystems, and local culture, which added so much depth to the experience. His expertise, patience, and enthusiasm made every game drive exciting and educational.
One particularly memorable moment was when Deo imitated the calls of a baby wildebeest. A nearby family of spotted hyenas immediately heard the sounds, got up from where they were resting, and started walking toward us looking genuinely confused, as if they were trying to figure out where the lost wildebeest calf was. Watching them approach with that “wait… who called?” expression was both fascinating and hilarious, and a perfect example of how knowledgeable and entertaining Deo was throughout the trip.
He also made sure we had plenty of opportunities for amazing photos and always positioned the vehicle thoughtfully so we could get the best possible views. Thanks to him, we saw everything we had hoped for and much more.
Beyond being an exceptional guide, Deo is a genuinely kind and warm person. By the end of the trip, he felt more like a friend than just a guide. We will always remember the wonderful experiences and memories he helped create.
Thank you, Deo, and thank you, Serengeti Smile, for an unforgettable safari. We had an incredible time and truly appreciate everything you did for us.
