Bespoke, thoughtful and determined for us to have the best time!
Starting with the planning, Silas and Robert were incredibly helpful and helped produce about the dozen or so iterations of our tour. We started with a 'standard' tour but then added items we wanted to experience such as the migration and they worked to our budget, explaining why certain options would add more cost.
They were very responsive to my queries and provided all the details for me to make the deposit and payment via bank transfer.
The tour itself was incredible and it was a combination of a truly amazing guide who knew where to find the animals and was clearly very interested in the wildlife - thank you Edward! - and also the choice of accommodation which was wonderful!
Communication throughout was excellent, even informing me when Edward got held up for a passing official.

Excellent in every aspect!!!
The communicating before the tour was excellent. Silas gave us many options regarding hotels before we reach decision and nothing disappointed us. Our driver Edward was very professional and punctual and arranged everything in detail. On our arrival to Arusha one suitcase was lost and Silas helped us a lot Songs to relocate and finally get it back later on Zanzibar. The safari is an experience you should not miss. We saw everything and much more than expected. Thanks to the team!!!

Edward was awesome - knowledgeable, has a great sense of humour, and was attentive to all our needs
The tour was flawless from beginning end! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute from the game drives, the wonderful hot lunches, to our accommodations each night. Three days of different ecosystems were full of amazing experiences up close with wildlife and spectacular views. I would love to give my whole family this experience of a lifetime. Thanks, RO Scavenger for taking care of everything so beautifully!

Organized and awesome.
We had a three-day custom tour of Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Tarangire National Park. From start to finish, our guide, Edward, was kind, generous, and very, very knowledgeable. He also had a great sense of humour. The Farm of Dreams resort was beautiful and comfortable. We couldn’t ask for a better safari experience – thank you so much to RO Scavenger – Silas and Edward went above and beyond for us. Great value for the money.

Edward was patient and highly knowledgeable about the environment and wildlife
As someone who had never booked a trip through a tour operator before, I was hesitant—especially given how expensive these trips can be. But we were so fortunate to find such a great company. The booking process was smooth and easy, and Silas was incredibly knowledgeable, helping us organize the trip efficiently and save valuable time. Our guide Edward was patient, friendly, and deeply knowledgeable about the wildlife and environment. We always felt safe, and he made each moment in Tanzania engaging and memorable. We did a 5-day safari, and now my kids can’t stop telling everyone about the experience. The “pole pole” (slowly, slowly) pace was perfect for our family. We’re already planning to come back to visit the Maasai Mara and hope this same team can help us plan that trip in the near future.

RO scavenger is such an incredible company. Everyone is so kind, helpful, and thoughtful. We love it
Our Safari was such an incredible experience. Harry, our guide, is very knowledgeable about everything from animals to plants to birds. We ask a million questions and he always answers leading us to learn so much about safari and culture!
Everyday we were insanely close to animals and always the first or second car to the scene! It felt like we had all the beauty to ourselves. Lunches were amazing. I was thinking that we would be eating sandwiches everyday but I was wrong. Chicken, rice, sauces, pasta dishes, bread, fruit, desserts, and so much more exceeded my expectations.
Days were long but never seemed to be with excursions like horseback riding, game drives, night drives, hot air balloon. RO scavenger made this trip so amazing. I will think about this incredible experience everyday! Thank you!!

World Traveler - Best Experience Ever!
To celebrate my birthday, my daughter's engagement and my niece's graduation from University, I planned a trip to Africa!
Let me first start by saying, planning a Safari can be a daunting task. There are so many options to choose from, so much to see, and it is expensive to travel across the globe so you want to be sure you get the best value for your money. Trust me, it is not easy to navigate.
We wanted to capture as much as possible while in Tanzania and we packed our schedule with every opportunity!
I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years and have planned all of my family, personal and professional trips for as long as I can remember. I have OCD and micro manage every detail of a trip to ensure the best experience is had by everyone involved. I've planned trips to Russia, Greece, Australia, and the UK just to mention a few. I had never used a travel or tour company, never really needed to. This was the exception and I made the best decision ever!
From the first point of contact until the last hug goodbye it was a perfect experience, and I don't say that lightly. In the spirit of brevity I will only point out a few of the best features of the organization. Robert, Harry, Silas, Joshua and the entire team care! They are committed to ensuring everyone has an amazing experience. I was nervous about the pick up at the airport, don't be. They are standing at the door with a sign, cold beer and a smile waiting for us to arrive. The communication was outstanding, before, during and after the trip. I never had to call twice, or wait for a response more than a day. I changed our itinerary several times due to a variety or reasons, mostly my desire to stay in the best resorts, which was executed on perfectly. I added adventures along the way, horseback riding, a hot air ballon ride, a walking safari, it was all accommodated and with exceptional ease by the team.
RO set up special events at the resorts to celebrate our occasions, at every turn we were surprised and delighted with thoughtful touches.
Harry, our guide, was amazing. Always first or second on the scene to experience the animals first hand. Not only did we see the Big 5, we saw so much more thanks for Harry's expert eye and years of experience. He was so kind to us and treated us like family the whole time.
Breaks, meals and bathroom breaks were all exceptionally executed, even in the middle of the Serengeti.
I honestly can't say enough about RO. I have already started working on another adventure with them and have recommended them to all of my friends and family. They are flexible with your budget and have options in every price range just tell them what you want to see and let them work their magic.
Thanks RO, it was truly a trip of a lifetime!

Harry was exceptional, he knew all of the best spots and was so knowledgeable about the animals!
I had the time of my life!!!! Please book with Ro Scavenger Safaris!!!
This was mine and my family’s first experience in Africa and the Ro Scavenger team went so above and beyond to make sure every piece of the trip was perfect. They helped in every single detail we wanted to tweak and change during the planning process and we’re on the ball from Day 1. Joshua and Silas were great company and helped manage half of our parties flight delay, still managing to get us all to enjoy every activity we planned and keeping me entertained with a waterfall hike in the meantime. Then Harry, our guide, was immaculate. He answered every question we had about the culture, the animals, the plants, history, and everything in between. We were always one of the first on scene and even got to see all of The Big 5 in our first 4 days of being there!! I couldn’t speak more highly of this company and the experience we had!!!!!

Amazing team, that believe in customer satisfaction to make your dreams become reality.
Right from the start of our collaboration. Silas and Robert were instrumental in providing straight forward communication and details of our trip. Our 10 day safari was unique and tailored to us. This was uplifting as it was our 34rd wedding anniversary.
Our driver Edward was amazing. Edwards laughter, knowledge and great skills as a guide made for us to see all the animals on our list. The trip was well put together and our guide Edward put it over the top.
As mentioned the complete team of Ro Scavenger was amazing. We highly recommend the company for any tours. We will be back within 2 years and we will again be with Ro Scavenger.

Knowledgeable, thoughtful, and well versed in the full ecosystem that encompasses the park
I’ve been to Tarangire National Park a half dozen times, and this trip has easily been my favorite. It’s always a stunning place, but what made this visit stand out were the moments in between spotting elephants, giraffes, gazelles, lions, and more. Our guide, Joshua, brought the park to life with his deep knowledge of the ecology and ecosystem—turning every quiet stretch into an opportunity to learn something new about this dynamic landscape. His insights truly elevated an already incredible experience. I highly recommend Joshua and the team at Ro Scavenger for your next safari!
