Beautiful 10-days safari But special attention to the car is definitely necessary
4/5

Beautiful 10-day safari with Destiny Explorers

We arrived in Arusha 2 days before the elections and wanted to leave as soon as possible due to the expected unrest. Destiny Explorers and Issa Hamisi were very helpful and put together a safari trip within half a day that exactly met our wishes.
We opted for a 10-day private tour with 9 nights.

It was absolutely a great trip and everything was very well arranged. Compliments for this all the more because everything was so short in advance and there were major internet problems nationwide.

Our guide and driver, David, was very friendly and knowledgeable.
He had the car completely under control, even though it was very old and worn out.
The 4-wheel drive no longer seems suitable for this kind of safari. It has a worn-out interior; the cooling and brake systems (leaks) were faulty, which made us finally feel unsafe despite our excellent driver.

The lodges where we stayed were of good quality and the food was fine.

The payment of our trip was quite difficult.
We booked on the spot, this also had to be paid on the spot. Online with credit card or directly via our bank was not possible due to missing IBAN number of the Tanzanian bank. Finally paid via Revolut which we have been working on for about three days because these kinds of amounts are extreme checks. Received scam warnings which caused a lot of unnecessary stress.

So a number of points of attention for this fairly young organization.

Furthermore, an absolutely great trip!

Amazing
5/5

We went on a week safari with Destiny Explorers in Tanzania back in August. This was the best experience we’ve ever had. The guide was super nice and explained to us a lot of things about the animals, their culture, etc.

We went to some different national parks and were able to see the big five!

The roads are long, but it’s worth every single km.

About the accomodation, this company has a really good price compared to others and the hotels/lodges were fantastic every day. Clean, nice and the people there was really caring.

You can’t miss sleeping in a camp inside the Serengeti!

6 day safari with Destiny Explorers
4/5

Amazing 6-Day Safari with Destiny Explorers

Destiny Explorers and Issa Hamisi were very cooperative and put together a safari trip exactly according to our wishes.
We chose a 6-day tour with 5 overnight stays.

We had already spent four days in Stone Town, Zanzibar, and flew from there to Arusha.
Destiny arranged a nice hotel for us in Arusha, where we met a representative from Destiny Explorers to settle the payment details.
We stayed overnight, and the next morning we were picked up after breakfast — our adventure had begun!

First of all, we have to say this was an absolutely fantastic trip.
What incredible wildlife Tanzania’s national parks have to offer!
Serengeti and Ngorongoro gave us memories for a lifetime.

Our guide and driver, David, was very pleasant and knowledgeable.
What he didn’t know about nature and wildlife wasn’t worth knowing.
He also had full control of the vehicle, even though it was a bit old and worn.

Our Land Cruiser could definitely have been better maintained — the wipers, starter motor, and brakes were not in perfect condition, and the rear seat belts were missing.
Still, the car did its job well, and David handled it perfectly.

We truly think the trip was amazing, and we highly recommend that anyone planning a safari includes Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
The lodges we stayed at were of good standard, and the food was excellent.
We chose a private tour, meaning we had the car and guide entirely to ourselves.

When it comes to payment, there’s one thing worth mentioning:
One-third of the total cost was paid electronically as a deposit when we booked the trip.
However, what we found quite challenging was that the remaining balance had to be paid in cash, in USD or EUR.
For us Europeans, this is unusual — and getting hold of that much foreign currency can be difficult.
In Norway, where we come from, it’s no longer possible to withdraw foreign currency directly from a bank.
You have to use ATMs with poor exchange rates or expensive services like Loomis, and there are also strict withdrawal limits due to anti–money laundering rules.
Had we known how difficult this would be, we would probably have chosen a company that allowed full electronic payment.

That being said, we absolutely loved this tour, and we’re sure Destiny Explorers will sort out the payment matter.

A fantastic plan for a trip of a lifetime!
5/5

We had an amazing time on our 10-day safari with Destiny Explorers. From the initial quote until our trip commenced, Issa was quick to respond to any questions or requests we had. Our guide Nico greeted us with a warm smile that rarely left his face as he expertly drove us to all that we wanted to see, all while educating us on the wildlife and cultures we were experiencing for the first time. We’ve travelled a lot on a modest budget, and all of our lodgings either met expectations or far exceeded them. We would 100% book this again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Destiny Explorers to handle your once-in-a-lifetime Tanzanian adventure!
