The best time ever
We just finished the most wonderful 5 days safari with Topi Tours. If we could give it 10 stars, we would - totally exceded our expectations.
We flew into Seronera and spent 2 nights in Serengeti at Moyo Lodge. Beautiful accomodation and hosts. Buffalo and Lions roaming outside at night was amazing. Food and drink delicious. It was my birthday and the team brought our a cake and got the lodge into dancing mode. We then spent a night in Ngorogoro at Serene lodge (loved the bar, live music, and view of the cráter), and then a night at Escarpment Lodge (surely the best view from any pool in Africa) and Tarangire NP.
But the highlight through all of this was our incredible guide, and new friend, Ben. We could not have imagined someone more knowledgeable, attentive, caring (both to us and the animals) and funny. He helped us spot the big 5 (including two leopard sightings!), and the elusive rhino in Ngorogoro. Ben has such a detailed insight into the parks, the history, the animals, the people - it seemed there was no question too big or small that he wouldn’t provide a thoughtful answer to. Thank you, Ben!
We chose Topi based on price, lodges and other positive reviews. So glad we did. Also very happy to have chosen a smaller independent operator. Would recommend topi and Ben to anyone considering a Tanzania safari.

The most beautiful experience ever
An unforgettable journey among animals and beautiful landscapes, little to say other than to have this experience.
Special thanks to Topy Tours for their organization, and especially to Michael and Patson, who made this vacation perfect.
Stays at the Gran Melia Arusha are out of this world, an incredible luxury.

Our guide Ben make the tour memorable
Was a memorable experience, we was on a tour with our guide Ben, a person who really loves what he do. Also we learned a lot with him about the animals, the country, the places that we visited… it makes the experience memorable.
Regarding our plan the accomadations, price for money and planning was fenomenal, if we have to chance something we will do 1 more day at Serengueti instead of Lake Manyara, although for a first Safari experience was also nice.

Well organized operator and experienced tour guides
The course is organized very good.
With had 3 unforgettable safari days with our guide Ben, we couldn‘t have a better guide then him. Due his fascination for his job also we got excited and learned so many instreasting things about the parks, the animals, the culture and the country.
Everyday was filled with laughter, intresting stories, adventure and happy faces. We recommend a safari tour to everyone, it‘s an experience for life and it‘s worth every minute you spend out in the parks.
Our days passed by so fast, like Ben said: good things always pass by fast.

Great operator with clear communication throughout
Our safari with Topy Tours was an absolutely incredible experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our exceptional driver and guide, Ossi. He truly made our trip unforgettable. Ossi's expertise was remarkable; he navigated us to all the best animal sightings while expertly avoiding the crowds. His deep knowledge and enthusiastic answers to all our questions made each day a new learning adventure.
Beyond the amazing game drives, the lodges we stayed at were incredible and the hospitality was superb. Every place we stayed had breathtaking views, which made our downtime just as magical as our time in the jeep. We couldn't recommend Topy Tours highly enough, they exceeded all of our expectations!

Amazing experience, would 100% reccomend
Contact prior to the tour with Jackson was good! Everything arranged beforehand and he was very flexible in ensuring the whole experience was tailored for our needs.
During our 5 day safari our guide Ben made sure we were always comfortable and explained everything about all the wildlife, he could answer a the questions we had!
The guide was very experienced and knew everything about the wildlife and surroundings. Ben also adjusted the timing and routes based on our desires and to ensure we got the best sightings.
All the accommodations exceeded our expectations, very comfortable and with amazing food.
Thank you team Topy, we had the time of our lives!! And we will definitely come back!

Perfect and easy.
We did a safari tour with this agency last august and was incredible!! We were 6 people and all was fantastic. Jackson was so very nice and reliable from the start of the trip. It's not easy to organize such a long trip miles away, and he is completely available and responds very quickly to any questions. Payments were very flexible. The hotels were absolutely amazing. The price was very good and very reasonable. Everyone who went agreed that it was the best trip of our lives, thanks in part to the organization. Finally, our guide, Hajji, was incredible. He was very respectful of the animals and very experienced, having worked in the sector for 10 years and knowing every national park inside out. In short, a highly recommended experience. Thank you Topy Tours!!!

Way beyond amazing!
Our safari with Topy Tours was way beyond amazing! Huge thanks especially to our guide Amour who has been such a wonderful guide, animal-tracker, driver, and story-teller - all at once! Thanks to Amour's eagle eyes and outstanding tracking skills, we saw all big five and many more species in amazing settings. For instance, we saw a cheetah mum with her cubs feeding on a fresh prey, lions hunting buffalos and gnus, and breastfeeding lion cubs. Amour also had a plenty of exciting stories to share so the time spent on roads passed by very quickly. We also felt very safe with him on the unpredictable dirty roads and in the middle of national parks where he knew exactly the do's and don'ts for an enjoyable and safe safari.
Moreover, communication with Jackson was very smooth from the beginning. The initial offer was very professional and offered a great value for money, including an amazing hotel selection, ranging from small boutique hotels and lodges to bigger ones, but all very well chosen. Jackson's offer was also one of the rare ones including Gran Melia in Arusha, the best hotel in town.
Finally, we were very happy to be able to go with Topy Tours as a local SME tour operator as opposed to big foreign travel agencies.

An unforgettable Safari experience thanks to the high-end service provided and our amazing guide Ben
Professionalism and reliability of the tour operator from the very first to the very last day! Thanks to our guide Ben, we were able to experience the safari in all its authenticity and uniqueness. We were fortunate to have by our side a guide who is truly passionate about his work and able to share with us his love for nature and wildlife. The lodges we stayed in fully reflected our expectations in terms of service quality and the kindness of the staff. Everything was simply perfect and unforgettable.
