Exceptional Safari experience 💚
From start to finish, our first safari with this company was absolutely amazing. Communications were smooth and clear from the very beginning, and Malik was with us throughout the trip, making sure everything ran seamlessly and that we had the best possible experience! :)
Our guide, Nick, was truly exceptional. He was knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about wildlife, explaining everything we saw in detail and making sure we experienced as much as possible while respecting the animals’ natural behavior. The rest of the Selous Kinga Lodge team was equally attentive, preparing us with water, snacks, and lunch packs during our drives, ensuring we were comfortable and well taken care of at all times.
On the first day, we went on a stunning boat safari. We cruised along the river, enjoyed a glass of wine, and watched the sunset from a beautiful sandbank. It was peaceful, breathtaking, and unforgettable. The second day was a bush safari game drive, and we loved every second. Nick guided us thoughtfully, ensuring we saw as much as possible without disturbing the animals, and the team had everything prepared so we could fully enjoy the day. On the third day, we went on a savannah game drive followed by a swim in natural hot springs from a volcano. The water was naturally hot, which made the experience unique and memorable. I accidentally left my watch at the hot springs, and Nick kindly offered to turn back, even though it would have taken us hours. We decided not to, but we were very touched by his willingness to go the extra mile. On the last day, we went on a walking bush safari with another guide, which was a peaceful and immersive way to end the adventure. At the end, Nick and Malik accompanied us all the way to the landing strip and saw us off to the plane. It was truly a thoughtful and personal farewell that perfectly capped our unforgettable experience.
Value for money was excellent: Everything was thoughtfully organized, safe, and well-executed. This was our first safari, and it has completely inspired us. We now want to do more safaris and experience even more of Africa’s incredible wildlife. Throughout the trip, we felt that the entire team went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Their kindness, professionalism, and passion made us feel safe, welcome, and truly cared for.
We cannot recommend this company highly enough. Their professionalism, warmth, and dedication made our first safari truly unforgettable. The memories we made with Nick, Malik, and the rest of the team will stay with us forever, and we would return in a heartbeat!

it’s a 10 out of 10
We spent three nights at Selous Kinga Lodge as part of a four-day safari, and it was truly an unforgettable experience, not only because of the extraordinary beauty of Nyerere National Park and the safari itself, but also thanks to the warm and caring service provided by our guides.
We arrived from Dar es Salaam by car and returned by plane. After trying both options, we definitely recommend flying in both directions. Flying is much more comfortable and saves a lot of time and energy, even if it comes at a higher cost.
A special thank you goes to our guides, Nick and Maliki, who accompanied us throughout all the safaris. They were knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely passionate about the park and its wildlife. The entire safari was conducted safely and respectfully, without disturbing the animals - we especially appreciated their choice not to get too close.
For us, it’s a 10 out of 10! We highly recommend Stan Safaris and will definitely return!
