Excellent lifetime experience
Before we go, Iddy was kindly to reply all of our questions, even the silly one. He really made sure that the trip was to become what we wanted.
And our guide Reggie was amazing, he rather than an experienced driver,also got the incredible ability to spot animals ,that we can able to see the big 5, and witness cheetah, lion hunting . It will become my lifetime memory. Overall he’s a funny and kindness to share the culture of Tanzania, teaching us the local language.
Reggie really makes our safari an unforgettable experience and I would highly recommend him to be your guide!
Thank you to Iddy and Reggie for making our safari trip Incredible!

It’s my first time go to safari
This was my inaugural journey to Africa, and I couldn’t have asked for a more seamless experience thanks to Samora explorers. I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Iddy and Reggie for their outstanding service. Iddy was incredibly responsive, addressing every query I had about the itinerary with thorough and timely replies.
As for Reggie, our safari guide, his expertise and attentiveness truly elevated the entire adventure. His deep knowledge of the wilderness ensured we encountered the most sought-after wildlife—including the legendary Big Five. What impressed me most was his ability to personalize our route based on our interests while prioritizing our safety with clear, helpful guidance.
Beyond the game drives, Reggie’s warmth and hospitality shone through during our evening meals together, where he shared fascinating stories about Africa’s rich culture and way of life. This trip has left me with unforgettable memories, and I’ll undoubtedly return to explore more of this magnificent continent—with Samora explorers as my first choice.

Samora explorers has provided me with a comfortable experience.
This is my first time to Africa, and Samora explorers has provided me with a comfortable experience. I would especially like to thank Iddy and Reggie. Whenever we had questions about the itinerary, Iddy always responded promptly and provided detailed answers. Reggie, our safari guide for this trip, took great care of us and made the experience truly wonderful. His extensive experience allowed him to consistently locate the animals we wanted to see—thanks to him, we were able to spot the Big Five of Africa. He is also very attentive, always tailoring the travel route to our needs and reminding us of important precautions during the safari, which made us feel very safe. In the evenings, he would always join us for dinner and share insights about local African life and culture. I will definitely return to Africa for another trip and choose Samora explorers as my guide again.

Awesome operator makes dreams come true.
Samora Explorers is an awesome tour operator. They are doing the best for their customers and made our safari magical. All the time we needed something before or during the safari, Iddy answered immediatly. He really looks at his customerd and only wants the best for them. We got an amazing safari and our guide did a great job. Even if we had any questions or needed help he was there. He did everything to make our safari awesome. Samora did a great job and we will tell all our friends about that. I can only recommend them and love it to think about this safari. Just magical.

Lifetime nature experience
The whole safari was a great experience but beyond that, profesionalism of Samora was remarkable since even before we arrived Tanzania they managed to help us with our visa process.. thanks Iddy. During the safari, every place was outstanding... Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara... We saw everything or almost... leopards did not want to visit!!! Other than that, lions several times and in full action, bufalos, cheetah, impalas, gazelles, hipos, crocodiles, eagles, vultures, hyenas, jackals, flamingos, giraffes, zebras, antilopes, monkeys, baboons, turtles, lisaards, many other birds, rhyno, ostriches... All 4 accommodation were excellent but I highly recommend Harmony camp if you really want to experience real wild... it's amazing to weak up at 7am and see 100mts away from your tend 2 giraffes walking and eating so close to you. Nothing of that could be so amazing without our knowledgeable, flexible and friendly guide, Regi. He made this safari unforgettable for the 3 of us.

Excellent!
A 6-day safari with Samora Explorers allowed us to explore the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We traveled with Adrian - an excellent driver and a great guide. Thanks to his involvement, we saw the entire African Big Five! Adrian probably knows all the animals living in Tanzania! He knew the name of every bird, even the smallest one! The organization was excellent, the camps we stayed in were atmospheric, clean, friendly, and the food was excellent. We could stop the car at any time to admire the views and immortalize them in photos. Special thanks should go to Iddy, responsible for e-mail contact and clarifying all doubts before arriving in Tanzania, and Abeid, manager at Samora River Lodge, for whom everything is like HAKUNA MATATA :) Thank you!

Amazing Value and Experience
My wife and I has the absolute best experience with Samora Explorers! Our amazing guide Reggie was nothing short of the perfect person to accompany you on a safari. From his friendliness, knowledge of animals, and incredible ability to spot animals, he made our trip a truly unique experience.
Because of Reggie we were able to witness a rare lion hunt. He also found a male and female lion mating just outside the Serengeti hidden in the grass. Time after time, Reggie continued to spot animals all over the place. We saw so many lions in unique positions and exhibiting different behaviors. He was able to show us a Rhino in the Ngorongoro crater, and even Vultures tearing into a Zebra carcass. Reggie really went above and beyond to make our safari an unforgettable experience and I would recommend him to anybody in a heart beat! Truly a great guide.
You'll find a lot of other overpriced tour companies offering the same package at triple the price. Samora Explorers offered us luxury to mid-level accommodation where we were served 3 course meals for much cheaper than all these other European based companies. They are a local company that actually cares about their employees. So much so that while everyone around us has these sad looking box lunches, we had fresh hot meals and had a bush picnic everyday.
Overall, I highly recommend Samora Explorers. They are a great tour company with great guides and I can guarantee that you will not regret booking with them.
Thank you to Iddy and Reggie for making our safari trip unforgettable.

3 day africa adventure
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a three-day private safari in Tanzania, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, this journey was meticulously planned, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the natural wonders of this breathtaking country.
Reggie was really kind and had a good knowledge for the landscape and of course the animals we get to see during our 3-day trip! Can only recommend this to everyone else!

The best travel experience we’ve ever had!
We had an incredible safari experience with Samora Explorers and our absolutely awesome guide, Reggie!
We did the 6-day Best of Northern Tanzania Safari. From the beginning, Iddy was responsive, helpful and very accommodating with our booking. We had some slight date and accommodation changes, which he dealt with quickly and easily. The itinerary was so well crafted, we wished we were there for even longer. Given how much the package includes, it was fantastic value for money - basically everything is included, and all you have to pay for on top is a (very well deserved) tip for your guide, tips for staff at the accommodation you stay at, and any souvenirs you want to buy. The accommodations, service and food were also incredible.
Reggie was everything you could hope for in a guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, funny, great at finding the animals and helped us see all we wanted to see in just the first couple of days. We got great views of lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, buffalo, hippos, giraffes, hyena, a serval, and even six (!!!) rhinos (and so much more)! He answered all our questions on wildlife, the environment and Tanzanian culture - and on top of that kept us laughing all day! We are so grateful to have had such a wonderful guide and could not have had a better time.
Samora has helped us fall in love with Africa, and we’re definitely looking for our next chance to go back to Tanzania, of course with Reggie and Samora!
