Unreliable and disappointing
We had safari with dancing simba booking through another agency. Unfortunately our experience went really bad and we can't suggest this agency. Not because we didn't see animals, we have been lucky with that. But out of 5 days of safari, we actually did just 3: one day was completely lost because they didn't organise well the different pick-ups of customers; the other day the car broke down, after having shown malfunction at the very beginning and the agency didn't substitute it.
Not only, they were always late, every morning so we couldn't do any early morning safari, always started afte 8:30am.
And the worst thing? They didn't reimburse any of the costs, neither partially. They take risk on customer shoulder, completely without respect, not treating you as you were doing a one a lifetime tour. They waste your time, money and patience.
Avoid going with them.

Great safari and Kilimanjaro expedition
We booked a safari with Dancing Simba Safaris (DSS) and everything went according to plan thanks to Lucy, the organiser, and John, a fantastic guide. We really enjoyed Lake Manyara, N'gorongoro, The Serengeti and Arusha National Park. DSS is a fantastic and realiable tour operator, the service they offer is valuable and 100% recommended.

An unforgettable safari in Tanzania thanks to Dancing Simba
After eight unforgettable days on safari in Tanzania, we can honestly say that this was one of the best weeks of our lives, and Dancing Simba played a huge part in making it so special.
From the very first contact, everything was incredibly smooth. Communication was fast, efficient, and always friendly. They customized the itinerary to fit all of our requests and preferences, showing great flexibility and professionalism throughout the planning process. On top of that, their prices were extremely competitive compared to other companies we considered.
The entire trip was flawlessly organized. Every lodge and hotel exceeded our expectations, not only because of the quality and locations but also because of the warmth and kindness of the staff. It was clear that Dancing Simba carefully selects its accommodations and truly knows Tanzania inside out.
Our guide, John, deserves a special mention. Quite simply, we could not have asked for a better guide. His knowledge of wildlife, animal behavior, and the national parks was outstanding, but what made him truly exceptional was his personality. He was an excellent driver, a fantastic guide, and above all, a wonderful travel companion. He was always attentive to our needs, especially those of our daughters, showing incredible kindness and empathy every single day.
One of the highlights of the trip was spending three days in the Serengeti, staying in an amazing accommodation right in the heart of the park. We would also like to highlight the night game drive in Lake Manyara, organized by Dancing Simba with another specialized guide. It was an unforgettable experience where we saw an incredible variety of animals, including some species that are not commonly spotted in that area.
Everything about this safari exceeded our expectations: the itinerary, the accommodations, the wildlife sightings, the organization, and the personal attention we received throughout the journey.
We would also strongly encourage travelers to consider booking with local Tanzanian companies like Dancing Simba. By doing so, the money stays in Tanzania and directly supports local families, workers, and business owners. For us, that made the experience even more meaningful.
We recommend Dancing Simba 100%. If we ever return to Tanzania for another safari, there is no doubt that we will choose them again.

Amazing first safari experience
We had an incredible 6-day safari experience and would highly recommend this company. Our guide John was extremely knowledgeable about the parks and always made a special effort to spot the animals we hoped to see. His driving was impeccable, and he shared so many fascinating facts about the wildlife throughout the trip.
The food was delicious, and the chef brought such a fun atmosphere with his great sense of humor. The itinerary was very well planned, and the landscapes were absolutely breathtaking every single day.
What stood out the most was how much they cared about our comfort and overall experience. Communication with the team was always easy, and they were quick to answer all of our questions before and during the safari.
Overall, this was an unforgettable adventure, and we would not hesitate to travel with them again.
