Once-in-a-lifetime experience
We had an absolutely unforgettable honeymoon safari with Termite Tour Travel, and we couldn’t recommend them more. From the very beginning, communication was excellent, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. Our 5-day safari to Tarangire, two days in the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater was perfectly organized, with amazing accommodations that felt truly special for a honeymoon.
Our guide, Eli, truly made the experience exceptional. His knowledge was outstanding, and he went out of his way to look specifically for the animals we loved spotting most—leopards, lions, and cheetahs. Thanks to him, we were lucky enough to see the Big Five as well as many other incredible animals. The safari was very flexible: Eli always stopped when we wanted to explore something else or allowed us to spend more time watching animals whenever we wished.
The food throughout the trip was excellent, including an incredible bush lunch in the Serengeti, surrounded by breathtaking scenery—an experience we’ll never forget. The safari truck was new, comfortable, and well equipped with all kinds of drinks and even WiFi.
Our last day was perfectly filled with cultural activities before heading to the airport, which was a wonderful way to end the journey. One of the most memorable moments of the entire trip was the hot air balloon flight with Nyssa—absolutely incredible and without a doubt one of the highlights of our honeymoon safari. Termite Tour Travel truly went above and beyond to create a flawless, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
A thoughtful operator that makes a complex safari feel effortless and unforgettable
If you are looking for a safari that feels comfortable, luxurious, and truly special, Termite Tours is wonderful.
I didn’t really know what to expect when we arrived, since my daughter planned everything, but from the moment we landed, I felt relaxed and well cared for. The Meliá hotels and the luxury tented lodges were absolutely beautiful — I loved being surrounded by nature while still feeling completely comfortable.
Elly, our driver, was incredibly kind and attentive. He was always smiling, always patient, and made sure everyone felt at ease each day. When I wasn’t feeling well one day, Elly took such good care of me — he made sure we picked up medication right away and refused to take any money. That meant more to me than I can easily explain.
I am vegetarian, and all of my dietary needs were handled perfectly everywhere we stayed, which allowed me to relax and truly enjoy the experience.
One of my favorite moments of the entire trip was the hot air balloon safari on January 1. Floating quietly over the landscape and starting the year that way was incredibly special and something I will never forget. Seeing elephants in Lake Manyara and the wildlife in the Serengeti were also unforgettable.
Budda captured beautiful photos of both the animals and our family, and I’m so grateful we have those memories forever. We’ve traveled together through Europe and Asia, but this was the best trip we’ve ever taken as a family. I only wish we had more time — a week went by far too quickly.
They handled every detail so well that we could relax and just enjoy the animals and the landscape
Our family spent a week on safari with Termite Tours visiting Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti.
I’ll be honest — my wife and I didn’t really know what we were getting into since our daughter planned the entire trip. After experiencing it, I can say this was the best vacation we’ve taken together. We’ve traveled extensively through Europe and Asia, but this was on another level.
Everything was well organized and ran smoothly. Elly was our driver for the week and did an excellent job — punctual, knowledgeable, and easy to spend long days with. We were in a safari vehicle that was extremely comfortable and in great condition, which made a big difference given how much time you spend driving. It felt solid, well maintained, and clearly set up for long days in the parks.
The wildlife was incredible. In Ngorongoro, we saw thousands of zebras spread across the crater, and in the Serengeti, the sheer number of animals was remarkable. The Meliá hotels and the tented lodges were excellent, and one unexpected highlight was getting to do spear throwing with local Maasai arranged through one of the lodges.
Budda’s photography was also a standout — both the wildlife shots and the family photos are something we’ll always have. Looking back, the only downside is that one week wasn’t enough. After traveling the world, this trip stands out as my favorite, and Termite Tours deserves a lot of credit for that.
An incredibly well-run safari with expert guides who get you to the right place at the right time
f you want a safari that feels easy and full of surprises, Termite Tours does a great job.
We spent a week traveling through Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti, and the entire trip felt effortless. Once we met Elly, it was clear we didn’t need to think about logistics — he handled everything calmly and smoothly.
What stood out most to me were the unexpected moments. Even when we thought the day was winding down, something would happen. On the way to catch our bush plane out of the Serengeti, Elly turned the drive into what he called an “airport safari,” and we ended up with our final cheetah sighting of the trip — easily my favorite moment.
We also came across a hippo pool one day that completely caught me off guard. I didn’t expect it to be such a highlight, but somehow hippos ended up being my favorite animal of the trip (sorry giraffe).
Nothing felt rushed or staged. Elly made everything feel natural, and Termite made the entire experience feel simple in the best way.
Seamless planning, exceptional guides, and incredible wildlife sightings from start to finish.
If you are looking for an amazing safari experience in Tanzania, Termite Tours is it.
My family and I spent a week with Termite Tours visiting Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti. I worked with Termite for almost a year planning this trip, and that experience really set them apart. I never had to do my own research — they kept me informed, walked me through options, and helped me choose what actually made sense for our family and for a luxury safari. It always felt thoughtful and tailored.
Once we landed, everything was seamless. Benji met us at the airport, got us settled, and introduced us to Elly. From that point on, I never worried about timing, transfers, or plans — everything just worked.
The wildlife sightings were unforgettable. In the Serengeti, we saw seas of wildebeest, lion prides, and a cheetah hunting gazelles in real time. In Lake Manyara, we were surrounded by elephants so close that the moment felt quiet and surreal.
Elly was always on time, always smiling, and exceptional at reading where to go. Budda joined us as a photographer and captured incredible images of both the animals and our family — photos we’ll truly cherish forever.
At the end of the trip, Termite also helped me arrange for us to continue on to Zanzibar, where we spent two perfect days on the ocean unwinding after the safari. It was the ideal way to end an already unforgettable experience.
