Perfect Safari
5/5

We went on a 6-day safari in Tanzania as a family with a 6-year-old child. Our experience with Wakanda was excellent.
The exceptional service began with our first contact with the company, where they designed our itinerary, meeting all our needs and providing us with the best options.
Goodluck's pre-trip support was crucial in creating our itinerary and answering all our numerous questions.
And what can we say about the safari? It was one of the best experiences of our lives, and it was certainly made so great by our guide Bashir. Bashir was impeccable, a person with admirable experience, mastering the less-traveled routes and the locations where the most exotic animals were located, and his charisma with our daughter created a pleasant and fun atmosphere. Seeing the Big Five is a very difficult task, as it depends on many variables, and in our case, we were very lucky to see them all, largely due to the experience of our guide Bashir, who was tireless and skilled in putting us in the best position to spot the animals. He's also a big-hearted person who captivated and engaged our daughter every day of the safari.

The safari car we took was comfortable and new, and we had cold drinks available at all times.

One of Wakanda's specialties was the lunch meal. While most companies provide a paper box with food on disposable plates and cutlery, Wakanda provided all our food on porcelain plates and metal cutlery, and the food was prepared in metal pans and prepared fresh according to our preferences.

They were attentive to every detail at all times to provide us with an excellent safari.

We highly recommend Wakanda and have no doubt that it was the best choice we made for an incredible experience in Tanzania. Thank you, Wakanda, and especially Bashir and Goodluck, for the incredible experience.

Amazing Tour Guide and Once in a Lifetime Experience!
5/5

I want to start off by saying thank you to Max for a wonderful trip. Visiting 44 countries, Tanzania has definitely been the best experience. As a tour guide, Max has been brilliant and very consistently bringing us great adventures. He does what a normal tour guide does, but he goes above and beyond for his job and has so many highlights as a tour guide.

Max is very passionate. Through how he talks about the animals and the environment, I can tell that he loves this place and the organisms in it. He cares about protecting Serengeti and leaving the wildlife wild. I remember him stopping a newer tour guide on the road just to remind him not to litter. He is also knowledgeable and incredibly smart. When juggling driving and talking at the same time, Max can tell what an animal is from meters away, before anyone else can. When asking him what an animal is, max is quick and can give facts off the top of his head.

In the end we saw hyenas, lions, flamingos, zebras, elephants, wildebeests, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos and hippos just to name a few.

Max also always makes sure that as a family, we are comfortable with our hotel. When there was a yearly controlled wildfire in the backyard of one of our camps, Max drove back and stayed with us until we felt safe enough for him to leave again. He is a flexible person and will try to the best of his abilities to make a trip as comfortable as possible.

The food everyday was packed in metal lunch boxes along with complimentary drinks, and lunch was pretty tasty. The lunch table and the chairs were very sturdy and lunch was comfortable.

I loved talking to Max and learning about his family and the various traditions of Tanzania. He gave me a glance into real life living in a tribe and how Tanzania society functions. I wish I had more time to talk to him, he seems like he has many many stories to tell.

Special thanks to Beatrice for working hard to make this the best trip possible. Sheppard was great at replying fast and responded to every single question and concern my family and I had.

I will be recommending Serengeti Wakanda to friends especially Max as a tour guide. Lots of love from China and I will definitely be visiting again soon. Thank you so much Max!

The best safari experience I could ever have - Highly recommended
5/5

After a lot of research, we chose to do our safari in the Serengeti with Wakanda Tours and Safari — and it was the best decision we could’ve made!

Right from the start, during the quote and planning phase, Goodluck (more than just a salesperson) helped us design an itinerary that would make the most of our time on safari. When we arrived in Arusha — after a delayed bus ride from Nairobi — the Wakanda team, especially our driver Joshua, not only picked us up but also took us to lunch, helped us get coffee, exchange money, and supported us with everything we needed upon arrival in Tanzania. Ben, the company manager, gave us a full briefing for the days ahead.

Our guide, Willy, was simply outstanding! Incredibly experienced and deeply knowledgeable, he guided us through the savannah for five days, showing us an astonishing number and variety of animals — far more than I ever imagined possible in such a short time. What truly set Willy apart was his passion for wildlife, his sharp eye for spotting animals from a distance, and his remarkable ability to predict their movements. Patient, respectful, and always in good spirits, he made us feel safe, inspired, and fully immersed in the experience. Willy didn’t just lead our safari — he made it unforgettable.

And then there was Dula, our personal chef, who completely won us over! Always cheerful and attentive, he prepared the most delicious meals imaginable — without a doubt, one of the highlights of the trip.

I’m so grateful to the entire Wakanda team for making this dream come true. I wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone!

Perfection exists and it is called Serengeti Wakanda!
5/5

The best choice we could have ever made! In booking the itinerary and accommodations, we were constantly supported by a girl named Aishwarya who helped, advised and accommodated all our requests to make sure we had the best experience possible. Until the safari where we were guided by ZEPHA, a guy from Arusha who speaks Italian. Thanks to Zepha and his experience, friendliness and knowledge the safari was unforgettable. He explained us a lot of things about Tanzania, the parks and the animals. We also managed to see as many animals as we could. The best vacation of my life. Wakanda Forever!

5/5

My boyfriend and I went on a 5-day private safari to the parks in Tanzania and everything was perfect.
Our guide Zepha was very knowledgeable, he explained a lot about the places we visited and the animals we saw, he knows all the parks very well and thanks to him we managed to see all the animals there.
The accommodation chosen by the agency was also beautiful and very impressive.

Amazing Safari experience
5/5

Together with my wife we chose 6 day mid-range private Safari tour (Tarangire -> Manyara -> Serengeti -> Ngorogoro).
Everything was perectly organized since our arrival on the airport, where a taxi driver waited for us and took us to Arusha in a hotel.
Throughtout the whole trip, all food, accomodations and nature were just perfect!
We really want to thank our guide Jimmy, who has extensive knowledge about wildlife and Tanzania history/culture and is very pleasent to have a conversation with him and crack some jokes! :)
Also big thanks to our Safari organiser Aishwayra who supported us in all of our questions before our arrival!

Asante sana!

5/5

Had a great time on our recent African Safari with Serengeti Wakanda Tours. Our contact person Sabrina was so helpful and always replied to questions very quickly. I knew we were in good hands. Our guide Benedict did a good job keeping us on schedule as we took a 5 day tour through the Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro National Parks. Benedict is very knowledgeable and is a pro at spotting animals. We experienced several exciting close-up encounters as herds of elephants and giraffes crossed the road around our vehicle. We would recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours to anyone wanting an exciting and informative Safari.

Words cant desribe how amazing our 3 day Safari was!
Wakanda Tours and our Guide Max is excellent, trying their best to see animals from best spot.
We have been sitting among Elephant, Gnu and Zebra groups, 1 meter away from them!!

The car is the best among the old Toyotas we had a LandRover, unlimited drinks, wifi, powersocket, dining table with chairs, we had lunch whereever we wanted, we literally ate 10meters away from an Elephant!!! Amazing memories, best team ever, grateful for Max! 5*
Private car for only the two of us!!
