The tour operator was very helpful and eager to provide us a posivite safari experience.
4/5

We had a lovely and life-changing safari experience with Tanzania Pilgrimage Safaris. I felt like I was in a National Geographic documentary observing the animals in their natural habitat. Our guide and driver was eager to share his knowledge about the fauna and flora we were encountering. He made sure we would have a positive experience in collaboration with our safari consultant, with whom we were in contact anytime we needed anything.
A very positive fact that I would like to mention is that when I forgot a gift at one of the lodges of the park and when I realised it we were already heading out of the park, the managing team back at Arusha made every effort to find and transfer the gift back Arusha (where we were heading to) on time. This was a precious moment for me as I didn't lose the beautiful object I had bought as a souvenir and it is not a given that everyone could have done for me.
In general, the tour operator made sure that everything was rolling smoothly for us. Also, when an accommodation happened to be overbooked they managed to find us another lodge, which happpened to be super luxurious, which we were not expecting of course.
This was a shared safari with 4 more people apart from my friend and I, and it turned out very fun and comfortable.
I recommend the Tanzania Pilgrimage Safaris. Our guide and driver tried to take us everywhere and see all the animals possible. Final point is the selection of lodges within Serengeti park, which were an experience by themselves and really very nice and cute.

Incredible safari, great tour company and good communications
5/5

After extensive research and consideration, I decided to go on my first-ever safari with Pilgrimage Safaris in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and I have no regrets. From the very beginning, the communication with Nowatus was fantastic. He was extremely helpful and always made sure to organize the best tour for me. Nowatus is a kind and trustworthy person, and I had the chance to get to know him a bit better during a ride to Moshi right after my safari. I'm happy to support him through my booking, knowing the money is going to good hands, which was important to me before booking my safari.

I opted for a budget camping safari, and it was an incredibly thrilling experience. I was fortunate enough to see all of the Big 5, which is not always guaranteed. Our guide, Zuma, was undoubtedly one of the best guides in Tanzania and made sure that we had a truly unique experience. As a solo traveler, it was important for me to be part of a great group, and Nowatus did an excellent job placing me with an international group that grew very close over the three days. We had so much fun together, and I'm grateful to have shared this unique experience with them.

Novatus, was a wonderful curator very experienced and ensured I would have an incredible safari experience, From airport pick-up to drop-off he was present, organized and attentive, his selection in accommodations exceeded my expectations, as a solo female traveller from Canada he ensured I felt safe at all times. And I’m grateful for the wonderful safari experience and memories he was able to provide for me. Definitely recommend booking your safari with pilgrim safari’s

Great service and professionalism | 4-day Safari
5/5

Very competent staff and available to answer all our questions before and during the safari (over 30 emails exchanged with Novatus!). They had the best proposition among the four Safari agencies I was in contact with. We were welcomed by Seith and Novatus who showed us around Arusha the day before our departure. Our driver Mariki was also very competent and experienced, and we were lucky enough to see all the animals we expected to see! The accommodations were all very good, and the food provided for lunch on Safari days was excellent every time. I can only highly recommend Tanzania Pilgrimage Safari.
