Had the most amazing experience because of the most amazing guide!!
First of all the communication with Marry was really good , she answered very fast to all my questions.
I had the most amazing experience , we such a amazing group and a GREAT guide 'Micky'.
He went out of his way to see the animals we wanted, he had such a lovely vibe, one of my favorite people i met while in Tanzania. I don't think there is a better guide for a safari, he could see the animals from faaaaaar away. That was amazing. We all got allong so good so that made the 4 day safari unforgettable.
Saw the big 5, had the best time of my life!!

Fantastic experience! I can really recommend to make an unforgettable vacation
Mary arranged everything for me months in advance with great communication via WhatsApp. We only had to pay a tiny deposit before we arrived which was reassuring. Our driver/guide was called Barton and was brilliant and soo smiley! The luxury accommodation was incredible with animals walking around next to the lodge.
Unforgettable experience!

Knowledgeable and friendly and charismatic with a warm and inviting demeanor. We loved Barton!
This was my first time visiting Tanzania and I am so grateful that I booked my safari with African Culture Adventures. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable of the wildlife and culture and was always able to answer our questions with a smile on his face. He made me feel very safe while maintaining the sense of adventure that I was looking for. Additionally, this is a Tanzanian owned company which I found to be particularly meaningful for me as a guest.
Ten out of ten would recommend booking with African Culture Adventures.

Absolutely prepared for anything and everything!
This tour group was amazing. Mary was a fantastic coordinator and was able to help me with everything from booking to esims to visa questions and beyond! Barton, our guide, was so knowledgeable and got us to every single animal we were hoping to see!!
I literally didn’t have to worry about anything and loved every second of the trip!!
Also this provider definitely provides the best value for price. I thought every penny spent was worth the adventure we had.

Fantastic beginning to end
Mary was a superstar beginning to end! She listened to what we wanted from our trip and organized it without fault, including coming to meet us at the end to make sure everything had gone smoothly.
Mary responded within a matter of hours to emails and explained everything which meant the trip went really well.
The best thing to do is have a think about what you want from your trip and communicate that to Mary and she will be able to build a schedule that suits you.

Brilliant
The Serengeti National Park in Tanzania is a jewel of the African wilderness, renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, diverse wildlife, and the legendary Great Migration. My recent safari experience in the Serengeti was nothing short of spectacular, especially in terms of spotting the "Big 5"—lions, leopards, rhinoceroses, elephants, and buffaloes.
### Arrival and First Impressions
Upon arriving at the Serengeti, the vastness of the savannah was awe-inspiring. The golden grasslands stretched endlessly, dotted with acacia trees and the occasional kopje (rocky outcrop) that provided stunning views of the surroundings. The air was filled with the sounds of wildlife, setting the perfect stage for an unforgettable adventure.
### The Big 5 Experience
1. **Lions**: Our first sighting was a pride of lions lounging under a shady tree. Watching these majestic animals interact was surreal. The cubs played while the adults kept a watchful eye on their surroundings. The guide shared fascinating insights into their behavior and social structure.
2. **Leopards**: Spotting a leopard in the wild can be challenging, but our guide’s sharp eyes led us to one resting on a tree branch, draped elegantly over a thick limb. Its spotted coat blended perfectly with the dappled sunlight, a moment to cherish.
3. **Rhinoceroses**: Although rhinos are not as commonly seen in the Serengeti compared to other parks, we were fortunate to encounter a few in the Ngorongoro Crater area, which is adjacent to the Serengeti.
4. **Elephants**: The herds of elephants were a highlight of our safari. We observed them interacting as family units, playing and protecting their young. Witnessing these intelligent animals in their natural habitat was something I will never forget.
5. **Buffaloes**: Large herds of African buffalo were often seen grazing across the plains, their massive horns and formidable presence making them an impressive sight. Our guide explained their social structures and the vital role they play in the ecosystem.
### Other Wildlife Encounters
In addition to the Big 5, the Serengeti is home to an incredible variety of wildlife. We encountered giraffes, zebras, hippos, and numerous species of birds. The sheer abundance of life made each game drive an exhilarating adventure. One evening, we witnessed a breathtaking sunset over the savannah, with silhouettes of wildlife against a vibrant orange sky.
### Conclusion
My safari in the Serengeti was a remarkable experience that exceeded all expectations. The opportunity to see the Big 5 in their natural habitat, combined with the stunning landscapes and rich biodiversity, made this trip one for the books. I left feeling a deeper appreciation for wildlife conservation and the beauty of our planet. Whether you're a seasoned safari-goer or a first-timer, the Serengeti offers an authentic, magical experience that is not to be missed, at a price that can’t be beaten anywhere.

supported, helpful and friendly
I was very satisfied. The food and the organization were perfect.
The guide did his best to show the animals without stressing them, chasing them or putting them under pressure. He made a very good job.
I would deduct one point for the information provided before booking.
We asked if there was a fence around the campsite. The answer was yes.
However, there was no fence around any of the campsites.
Otherwise everything worked very well. The guide ensured safety.

Very reliable agency and great experience
I just finished our first Safari, and it went great. We had communication with the agency every time we need via whatsapp, they advise us very well for the tour and the activities, the food was good and the guides very kind and reliables.
They put in the price also the internal flights we needed for transfer, so great organization and good quality of service.
Personally, I would reccomend.
