Zephania was an exceptional guide who made our 4-day safari unforgettable by always going the extra
We had the pleasure of spending 4 incredible days with our safari guide, Zephania, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one, he went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible safari. He always knew the best spots, positioned us perfectly for wildlife sightings, and worked tirelessly to give us unforgettable moments.
His knowledge of the wildlife and the parks was outstanding, and his passion for what he does truly showed. He was patient, friendly, professional, and always made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip.
The hotels throughout the safari were also excellent—comfortable, well chosen, and with great service, making the whole experience even more enjoyable.
Thanks to Zephania, our safari exceeded all expectations. If you’re lucky enough to have him as your guide, you’re in for an amazing experience. Highly, highly recommended!

What really stood out was how knowledgeable Zephania is.
We spent 5 amazing days on safari with Zephania, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. From day one, he was friendly, easy to talk to, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves.
What really stood out was how knowledgeable Zephania is. Every time we spotted an animal, he had something interesting to explain about its behavior, habitat, or the little details we would have completely missed on our own. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
He was also incredibly patient. He never rushed us, always stopped whenever we wanted to take photos, answered all of our questions, and made sure we had the best possible views. Thanks to his experience and sharp eyes, we saw so much wildlife that we definitely would have missed otherwise.
After five days together, it honestly felt like we were exploring Tanzania with a friend rather than just a safari guide. Zephania worked hard every single day to give us the best experience possible, and it really showed.
Thank you, Zephania, for making our trip so memorable. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, I couldn’t recommend him more. He’ll make your experience one you’ll never forget.

Faboulous, Professional Tour Operator
We had a fantastic 6-day safari to Tarangire , Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris. To us, it was important to get deeper into Tarangire and Serengeti to get away from the crowds and Beatrice organized the Tour to make our wish come true. Our excellent guide Zephania made sure we saw Lots and Lots of wildlife and also beautiful landscapes and we slept in luxurious, close-to-nature tented camps inside the parks in Tarangire safari Haven and Lala Salama in the Serengeti. We felt that we got really good value for the Money and Everything was Professional, reliable and exactly the way we had planned.
Excellent Family African Safari

7-Day Northern Circuit Safari + Cultural Experience
We are a family of 4 from California 2 adults and 2 teenagers, ages 13 & 16, and this was truly the trip of a lifetime. After a lot of research, we chose Serengeti Wakanda, and they exceeded our expectations from beginning to end. The price is also cheaper than what we budgeted for, so we did some extra stay and upgrade.

❤️ Final Thoughts
This safari exceeded every expectation we had. The wildlife, landscapes, accommodations, food, organization, and cultural experiences all came together to create unforgettable memories for our family.
If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda. They were responsive, organized, honest, and took care of every detail from the moment we arrived until the day we left.
A special thank you to Bashir, whose knowledge, experience, and passion made every game drive exciting and unforgettable. We saw an incredible variety of wildlife, and many of those sightings were possible because of his expertise.
If we ever return to Tanzania, we would absolutely book with Serengeti Wakanda again.
Tip for future travelers: If your budget allows, add one extra night in the Serengeti—you won’t regret it!
