A Truly Life-Changing Safari with Oldbeast Vacations
I am so deeply grateful that I booked my trip with Oldbeast Vacations. I was traveling alone to Tanzania and felt quite nervous at first, especially because I have type 1 diabetes and specific medical needs. I needed to keep my insulin cold throughout the day and have access to fridges in the lodges.
Mwanne was incredibly proactive and caring. She arranged a cooler with a temperature gauge in the safari vehicle so I could always ensure my insulin stayed cold. She also contacted each lodge in advance to inform them about my dietary restrictions. Thanks to her attention and kindness, I felt completely safe and supported the entire time.
Beyond that, Mwanne was exceptionally kind, responsive, and flexible. I had many questions during the planning process, and she patiently adjusted the itinerary to fit my needs perfectly.
We also had the best and kindest driver, Jolis. He was so much more than just a driver — though he’s an excellent one! He’s an outstanding animal spotter with a great eye for wildlife. We even saw an entire family of lions resting in a tree in Tarangire, and we had the sighting all to ourselves.
Both Mwanne and Jolis radiate such positive energy. They are funny, open, patient, and truly wonderful to be around. Even during full-day game drives, I was never bored for a single moment. While other vehicles were chasing radio calls and crowding around sightings, we relied on instinct and timing — and it paid off. We saw **all** the animals, including around seven serval cats!
One of the most special moments was witnessing a Maasai tradition near the Ngorongoro Crater — a beautiful, rare, and deeply moving experience.
Overall, I truly believe I had the best possible trip. I felt safe, cared for, and incredibly lucky. I will forever be grateful to Mwanne and Jolis for giving me such a meaningful and unforgettable adventure.

A trip to Kenya and Tanzania that I will never forget
This safari trip was truly extraordinary. From the very beginning, we received invaluable support from our travel consultant, Baraka. We spent over a week discussing the itinerary and hotel arrangements, and he patiently prepared seven different versions of the itinerary until every detail was perfect. His dedication was admirable.
When other travel agencies told me that the Lion Mountain Hotel in Sarowa was fully booked, Baraka confidently said he could get us a room—and he did. His reliability, hard work, and professionalism made our entire trip incredibly reassuring.
A heartfelt thank you to Oldbeast Vacations for making this trip so smooth, well-organized, and unforgettable.
Our guides in Tanzania, Champion and Dominic, were simply outstanding; words can hardly describe how admirable they were. Having already seen the "Big Five" in Kenya, we hoped to witness something even more special this time—hunting animals, spectacular river migrations, and the rare black rhinoceros. They not only strived to achieve these goals but exceeded all our expectations. Every day felt like watching a fantastic wildlife documentary unfold before our eyes. What moved us even more was that while guiding us through the sightseeing, they also continuously taught us. They didn't just point out the animals' presence; they helped us understand them—their behavior, survival instincts, history, and many details we would never have known before. In just a few days, we learned more about wildlife than we would in a lifetime. Their enthusiasm, professionalism, and love for nature deeply touched us.
However, what touched us most was not only their talent as guides, but also their sincerity. They were more than just guides; they became our friends. Their laughter, kindness, dedication, and genuine care made this journey so warm and unforgettable.
Champion and Dominic, our gratitude is beyond words. The memories you gave us will forever remain in our hearts. Africa changed our lives, and a large part of that is thanks to you. We truly love you, our friends forever. We hope to meet you again someday.
If you also dream of a safari trip filled with emotion, wonder, learning, and genuine connection, choose Oldbeast Vacations. This will be a journey that will stay with you forever.
With heartfelt gratitude, we say: Thank you.

Soul-Stirring Safari and Victoria Falls Journey
My recent journey with Oldbeast Vacations was more than just a trip it was an experience that touched my heart and awakened my spirit. From the very first message exchanged, I could feel their dedication, warmth, and passion. Their communication was quick, clear, and personal. Every question was met with patience and care, making me feel supported and excited long before the adventure even began.
From the moment the tour started, I knew I was in the hands of people who truly love what they do. The guides did not just share information, they told stories, shared laughs, and opened a window into the soul of the places we visited. They guided us seamlessly through the Botswana border crossing and did it with such ease and confidence that we simply enjoyed the moment without a single worry.
Their passion was contagious. Exploring the Chobe River felt magical not only because of its beauty, but because of the way it was presented to us, with pride, respect, and genuine love for nature and culture. I found myself not just seeing the landscape, but feeling connected to it.
What amazed me most was the value. The level of professionalism, care, and extraordinary experiences we received far exceeded the cost. Oldbeast Vacations offers something rare these days tours designed with heart, not just profit.
Their reliability gave me peace of mind. Every detail, every transfer, every timing was handled with precision. There was no confusion, no stress, just pure excitement and ease. That allowed me to be fully present in every moment, living the adventure instead of worrying about it.
And what an adventure it was. Cruising along the Chobe River at sunset, watching wildlife in their natural world, feeling the vibration of Victoria Falls, and breathing in the wild, open air it was not just sightseeing, it was soul-filling. Every moment felt like a gift.
This was more than a tour. These were memories stitched into my heart. This was laughter, amazement, discovery, peace, and gratitude all woven together into one unforgettable journey.
If you’re searching for a travel experience that moves you, inspires you, and stays with you long after you return home, choose Oldbeast Vacations. They don’t just show you a destination they let you feel it.
Thank you for an adventure I will carry with me forever.

A Honeymoon Safari We Will Never Forget
Our guide was Bernard, and he truly made this trip unforgettable. We came to Tanzania for our honeymoon, visiting Ngorongoro and the Serengeti, and we were incredibly lucky to witness the Big 5. It was a dream come true.
Bernard speaks excellent English and his knowledge is amazing. Every question we asked was met with insight, passion, and fascinating details. He didn’t just show us wildlife, he taught us about animals, nature, Tanzanian culture and so many incredible curiosities we will always remember. It was like traveling with someone who genuinely loves what he does, and that made every moment even more special.
We recommend this company with full confidence. The service was punctual, professional, efficient and incredibly supportive from start to finish. We felt safe, cared for, and valued throughout the entire journey.
We will absolutely return for more safaris with this company, and we will proudly recommend them to everyone we know.
Thank you for giving us memories of a lifetime, and a very special thank you and warm hug to Bernard.

A Safari to Remember: Our Unforgettable Journey with Charles
We are beyond grateful for our incredible safari guide, Charles. From the very moment we met him, his warmth, kindness, and genuine care made us feel instantly welcomed. Charles isn’t just a guide; he’s a master of the wild. His unmatched skill in spotting and tracking wildlife turned every moment into a breathtaking discovery.
Thanks to his deep understanding of animal behavior, habitats, and movement patterns, we witnessed rare, magical encounters that most others would only dream of seeing. He could detect the smallest rustle or glimpse of an animal through dense bush, far beyond what anyone else could notice, and his interpretations of tracks brought us closer to the heart of nature than we ever imagined.
But Charles’s knowledge extended far beyond wildlife. He shared the richness of the local cultures, the history, the geography, the languages, and the unique way of life of the people he calls home. Every day, we felt completely safe, knowing he guided us with care and respect for the animals, all while positioning us perfectly for unforgettable views.
Charles’s dedication didn’t stop with the safari. Even after a 12+ hour drive back to Arusha, he made sure we were checked in and our luggage was properly tagged for our flight from Kogatende to Zanzibar. Beyond the game drives, the moments we shared meals together allowed us to connect with him personally; his stories, his laughter, and his spirit made this experience profoundly human as well as wild.
Charles isn’t just a safari guide; he’s a memory maker, a storyteller, and a guardian of the wilderness. Because of him, our safari became a once-in-a-lifetime journey we will carry in our hearts forever. We wholeheartedly recommend Oldbeast Vacations and especially Charles to friends, family, and anyone lucky enough to seek the magic of Africa.
Thank you, Charles, from the bottom of our hearts, from your Canadian friends!
