This was a fantastic safari experience with Zara Tours
Glamping with Zara Tanzania Adventures was an incredible experience. We encountered wildebeest, zebras, monkeys, and even elephants in some of the places we stayed, such as the Serengeti Wild Camp located right in the heart of the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Wild Camp, which boasts a breathtaking view of the Great Rift Valley. Our guide, Bright, was outstanding. He was familiar with all the trails, water sources, scenic overlooks, and hidden locations where we wouldn't miss seeing the animals. He went above and beyond to locate all the species we were eager to see. We are extremely pleased that we included a visit to the Bushmen tribe living near Lake Eyasi, as it was truly captivating. The biking tour around Mto Wambu was also very engaging. This was a fantastic safari experience with Zara Tours.

We loved it.
The safari with guide Clinton from Zara is definitely the highlight of an unforgettable summer. Everything was well planned with just the right amount of game drives, extra activities, nice lodges, and a cultural infusion of Maasai and Bushmen visits.
We saw lots of different animals in the parks ranging from elephants, lions, giraffes, buffalo, hyenas, and many other animal species.
The Serengeti is very beautiful, and the landscapes are just awe-inspiring. With Clinton with us, he knew all the places where we could see the animals we couldn't miss. We also went to Manyara and Ngorongoro, but those visits were only for a day, unlike the 4 days we spent exploring the Serengeti.

I highly recommend Zara Tours for safaris in Tanzania.
We had an unforgettable experience in Tanzania organized by Zara Tours. We went with an outstanding guide Juma, through Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. These parks were rich in diverse wildlife species, and we had the opportunity to see the Big 5, the Great Wildebeest Migration, and many other wildlife species. Some of the safari highlights included a pack of hyenas chasing a lion from its buffalo kill and eventually stealing it. Jacob was an exceptional and trustworthy guide, and he made the trip truly remarkable for incredible wildlife encounters and visits to the Maasai and Hadzabe tribes. I highly recommend Zara Tanzania.

An Unforgettable Safari Journey in Tanzania.
We've booked 8 days, safari in Tanzania with Zara Tours and it proved to be a well organized and memorable trip worthy of praise and appreciation. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Manyara with guide Seif, who tirelessly searched for animals in the parks. He even contacted other drivers through the car radio to get us to interesting sites. We saw an astounding number of lions, elephants, giraffes, antelope and the thousands of wildebeest in their annual migration. The lodges, where we were booked in, were perfect resting points, with some located right in the middle of Serengeti, Ngorongoro and close to Tarangire. We are so happy with Zara Tours for this unforgettable journey.

Absolutely Perfect
Our safari to Tanzania's Serengeti, Manyara, and Ngorongoro was a very fun and enjoyable adventure. I have no hesitations in recommending Zara Tanzania Adventure to everyone visiting Tanzania for a safari.
We were paired with an incredible guide, Shaban, who charmed us with his vast knowledge of nature, intelligence, and wit. Every day in the parks brought us unforgettable wildlife encounters. We saw all the Big Five plus a multitude of many other animals. It was a fun trip that took us through a mix of habitats, including the Ngorongoro highlands, which get quite chilly in the evenings, so make sure to include warm clothes.
We are absolutely happy with everything about our trip. It was perfect.

Once in a lifetime experience
Our guide Shaban was amazing; he knew all about the animals we encountered and could answer any questions we had about them. We were also impressed by his careful and skilled driving, which kept my family safe on the roads where some crazy driving was happening.
We had many wildlife sightings, including a rare sighting of mating lions, a troop of wild dogs, and a huge cobra slithering across the road. We were lucky enough to see the great migration on three separate occasions.
We are also very happy with Shaban's extra care during lunch, where he would find a lovely spot and set up the table and chairs, then continue to serve us lunch.
The stay in Tented Camps and Lodges completed the adventure, as their services are excellent while still preserving the feeling of adventure. Everyone deserves to experience a safari adventure with such a wonderful host at least once in their lifetime!

A Perfect Tanzanian Safari
This weeklong safari tour of Tanzania's Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro was incredible and surprisingly affordable, given the level of comfort and luxury at the lodges and camps where we stayed.
Our driver was excellent and skilled at tracking and finding animals. We managed to see all of the Big Five and even found ourselves in the midst of the great wildebeest migration in the Serengeti. We loved the lodges, and the Serengeti Safari Lodge is still fresh in our minds, with its lovely rooms, pool, food, and spa massages providing the ultimate relaxation after the game drives. We also enjoyed our stays at the other lodges, and everything was enchanting.
I happily recommend Zara Tours for safaris

Engaging and Fun Tanzania Safari
We had an outstanding safari experience in Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti with our guide Jonathan from Zara Tours. Jonathan was knowledgeable, attentive, and went above and beyond to provide us with fantastic experiences during our game drives, locating all the animals we were eager to see and answering all of our questions. He made the journey engaging and fun, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The food at all the accommodations was superb, and the lodges were located in stunning settings.
I wholeheartedly commend Zara Tanzania Adventures for their dedication and performance.

Flawless Safari
We expected our safari with Zara Tours to be great, but it was way better than we expected. We chose Zara Tours because of the many great reviews and indeed words do not do justice to the actual experiences. Our guide Tarimo was incredibly amazing. His vast knowledge of the parks and expertise in tracking wild game greatly enhanced our experience. We saw lots of wild animals including lions, elephants, giraffes, antelopes, warthogs, flamingos, hyenas, wildebeest, zebras, monkeys and many stunning landscapes. We are totally happy with Zara Tours for catering to all our needs and giving us a perfect experience.
