A Life-changing Experience! 🇨🇦🇹🇿
Wow. What a life-changing trip!
First off - if you ever book with Safari Soles you are in great hands. Happiness helped arrange our custom itinerary, so that we could tackle all we wanted to for our 2 week honeymoon in Africa.
Next, we met our driver/guide, Raymond, who is truly one of a kind. From his great taste in music for the long car rides, to his unwavering commitment to making sure you achieve everything you want to on your safari, it truly does not get any better. From Day 1 we felt so comfortable and knew we made a friend for life.
We started off at Tarangire National Park where we had an amazing day driving around and seeing all of the wildlife the park has to offer. The next days, we made our way through by the Serengeti, where we stayed at 5-star accommodations (truly) and were treated incredibly by all of the staff. We ended off at the N'gorongoro Crater where we achieved our goal of seeing the Big 5 and MORE!
Everywhere we went was very clean, very accommodating, and went above our expectations.
Side note - if you're a picky eater like me, do not fret as there is a good selection of food for every meal, and the staff are more than willing to accommodate should you not like the menu set out.
This truly was a life-changing trip, and we can not say enough good things about all that were involved in the planning of our perfect honeymoon.
Thank you to Happiness, Innocent and Raymond for leaving a lasting impact on our lives with this trip of a lifetime!
Asante!

Unforgettable moment
We spent a truly timeless, unforgettable moment on this safari with our incredible guide, Jeremiah. The breathtaking scenery and the extraordinary encounters with wildlife made this experience truly special. We would like to thank Jeremiah for his patience and positive attitude throughout this unforgettable adventure. We will definitely be back! 🤩
Safari Soles Tour guide was not good
I booked a 4 day private tour with Safati Soles. I booked with Safari Soles because my booking agent was incredible itherwise i wouldve booked directly with the lodge. I was a solo female traveler and this was my first BIG solo trip. I stayed at Lemala Impingo Ridge. The camp was beautiful and the staff was awesome. I enjoyed everything besides my tour guide with safari lodge. His name was Godlisten. This was not my first safari trip so I had something to compare it to. Your tour guide will make or break a safari trip and Godlisten was awful. The next morning I did a video with Godlisten to share on my YouTube with how he received his name. I decided not to post anythung regarding Gidlisten as it was not a good experience. Here Is everything I did not like about Godlisten as my tour guide
1) I was told he would be waiting on me upon my arrival in Arusha at the airport. As a solo female in a foreign area I want my ride to be readily available when I arrive and waiting. Godlisten was not standing out with my name. I waited 2 to 3 minutes once I received my bag as Godlisten had been sitting in the car.
2) On the way to Lemala Ridge Reseve we stopped for lunch. This picnic area was very crowded with tourist and kids on field trips. I advised Godlisten we could sit in the truck and have lunch. I personally do not being around alot of people. Godlisten was determined for us to eat at the picnic table after I stated we could eat in the truck. We walked to several different tables with him hoping someone was getting up from the table. He finally found a table and proceeded to set the lunch on the table. I told Godlisten I do not like being around alot of people. He stated that's good to know but still insisted we eat at the picnic table. He sat the food on the table and I ask was salt and pepper provided. He said we have salt and no pepper I told him wonderful. I proceeded to put salt on MY food on MY plate and he told me I needed to taste it first. I salted some of MY other food on MY plate and he says oh so you like salt. I had no response for Godlisten about MY food. I proceeded to eat my food even though it was not enjoyable with all these people and kids running. After eating I immediately told Godlisten I'm going to the truck to sit and put on bug spray. Godlisten did not listen to anything I said and did everything his way. It would have been better if Godlisten would have given me options on where to eat
2) Godlisten is the tour guide so as the customer I assume he is the expert. On a game drive the windows were down and the top was open. The jeep started to swarm with tsete flies. I stated I was just bitten and he then proceeded to close the jeep and turn on air. A good tour guide would've advised the customer (me) about the tsete flies in the area and asked me if I wanted air or the top open. Godlisten once again did things his way and as a result I was bitten and fighting flies in the enclosed jeep the entire time with air on. I was exhausted from fighting flies and no longer wanted to continue and asked him to return me back to the lodge.
I advisef Gidlisten several times I did not want to see any snakes. On this same game drive he tells me to look there is a small snake. Why would he do this??
3) The very next day I had a scheduled balloon ride that I cancelled and no longer wanted to go on. I called the reserve and told them I no longer need a wakeup call I cancelled the balloon. Godlisten called me from the reserve to ask why did I cancel. I told him I no longer want to do the balloon ride. We hung up. Godlisten then sent me a WhatsApp message asking if I was okay. He knew I had a bad experience from the tsete flies the day prior. I told him I was fine. The next day I see Godlisten to go on a game drive he is still asking me why did I cancel the balloon. I advised Godlisten we already discussed I advised I was fine please stop asking me the same question.
4) My departure morning Godlisten advised it would take an hour to get out of the park from the lodge. We were out in 30 minutes as Godlisten was speeding out of the lodge on the rough roads. We were going 50, 60 and sometimes 70 kil per his dashboard through the National Park. Godlisten advised the lodge gave him breakfast and to let him know when I wanted the breakfast. After so long riding I advised I needed to use the restroom. He advised it would be about 15 minutes and we could eat breakfast. We stopped I used the restroom and he has breakfast sitting out at a table that was at the rest stop. I got my breakfast and went to the car. It was cold and rainy. He went to the restroom came back and saw me eating in jeep. He asked me was it too cold outside. Once again Godlisten was determined to do things his was and not ask the customer (me). I proceeded to eat in the car and he came back to the car. It would've been nice for Godlisten to ask me where I would like to eat MY breakfast. I did not want to have my breakfast in the rain and cold and I was not.
After arriving at the airport Godlisten thanked me for choosing Safari Soles and apologized for my safari. He knew it was nor a good experience.
You pay too much money to have a tour guide thats inconsiderate of your wants and needs on your trip. Godlisten did not ask me one time what i wanted nor did he listen to anything I told him. My trip was ALL ABOUT HIM!
Godlisten did the exact opposite of everything I wanted the entire trip.

Great animals, great fun, great guide!
Had the best time on safari with our guide, Christian. He had great knowledge of the area and the animals, asked us what we wanted to see each day and travelled accordingly. He had great energy and humour and we felt like he was part of our group not just a driver/guide. We saw all the animals our group wanted to see and more.
We were also well fed with food and refreshments each day as part of our package.
Would recommend Christian and Safari Sole Tours to anybody!

Wonderful Experience!!
Had an amazing experience with Safari Soles. This was our first safari & their sales specialist Neema was very helpful & understanding. She tailored our package to our needs, gave us reasonable quotes & was very patient in every aspect of safari decision making. Their process is very transparent & one gets proper documentation after every phase. Guest experience team was equally great. & was very proactive to respond to our queries. Lastly & most important our guide Abrazack was abs great. He had knack for details, ensured we are well taken care of, explained us everything in detail & made our experience just wow !!
Thanks team, you guys were GREAT ! 😊
