Landpilot Simon was the best!
5/5

Our 5-day safari in Tanzania was an amazing experience!

Each day delivered unforgettable wildlife moments, from watching lions laze in the grass to seeing elephants. The landscapes were breathtaking and constantly changing, and the pacing of the itinerary felt just right—packed with highlights but never rushed.

A huge part of what made this trip so special was Simon, our tour guide. His knowledge of the parks, animals, and local culture was exceptional. Simon had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife and always made sure we were in the right place at the right time. Beyond that, he was thoughtful, patient, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone felt comfortable and got the most out of the experience.

The accommodations were comfortable and well chosen, the food was consistently good, and the logistics were seamless. It was clear a lot of care went into planning every detail.

This safari exceeded all expectations. If you’re dreaming of an authentic, well-run African safari with a guide who truly elevates the experience, this 5-day journey—especially with Simon leading the way—is an easy recommendation.

Best Safari experience with Simon
5/5

We did a 5-day Safari, our Tour Guide Simon was the best. We saw really a lot of wild animals, all the big five on a Single day. Simon explained us all things to know about the Country, Culture, People, animals, safari. The lodges were very clean and served good food. Totally recommend.

Unforgettable Safari with Simon – 5 Days of Pure Excellence!
5/5

Our 5-day safari in Tanzania with Simon (the landpilot) was absolutely outstanding. Simon is not just a driver – he is a wildlife spotter, entertainer, problem solver, and safari expert all in one.

The service was top-notch from start to finish: always punctual, always in a great mood, and somehow always one step ahead of what we needed. Whether it was lions, elephants, or the perfect viewing spot, Simon found them all. We are pretty sure the animals know him personally.

On top of that, there was a lot of fun along the way – great conversations, plenty of laughter, and the feeling of traveling with a friend rather than a standard tour guide. At the same time, Simon took excellent care of us, making sure we felt safe, comfortable, and well looked after at all times.

Lifetime experience
5/5

We had a great 5 day Trip with Simon - the best Tour Guide! Everything was amazing, Simon was a Perfect Driver and very attentive. He answered all our questions and we even saw the Big Five. Also the hotels were great, and the organization before too - we had many changes during planning and they fulfilled all our wishes. There are so many tour operators, we got so many offerts- but we chose Serengeti Silence and it was the best choice, especially with Simon. Thank you for everything.

5/5

Last week we returned from a safari that included Tarangire, the southern part of the Serengeti National Park (Ngutu) (the great migration there in January), and Ngorongoro. My husband and I traveled through the tour operator Serengeti Silence. The guys tailored the tour to our needs and were great. It was a fantastic vacation! Everything was organized perfectly, starting with the prompt provision of information and answers to our questions (they answered even after hours, early in the morning and at night), and the excellent teamwork throughout all four days. Everything was well thought out, precise, and well-informed. I'd especially like to mention the work of our guide, Pius, a very considerate, knowledgeable, and friendly person; we thoroughly enjoyed our conversation! He went out of his way to make our vacation unforgettable, finding the best views and spots, and even organizing picnic lunches in special, picturesque places. :) We saw all the animals, even a mother cheetah with her cubs. :) The hotels they selected were a special treat. I'd never stayed in a camp hotel before, but Serengeti Classic View Migration Camp - Ndutu was a delightful discovery! High-quality plumbing and linens, hot water, and a stylish interior, all in a large two-section tent. Even the tent floor is wooden, like parquet, and all the joints are hand-finished so that not a single bug can get through. The cook cooks deliciously, all the food is fresh, and in the evenings we enjoy sitting around the campfire with wine. The camp staff is incredibly warm, they made us feel like family.

The icing on the cake is the perfect balance of price and quality! If you're still deciding, you don't have to look any further – this tour operator has exactly what you're looking for.

The driver was very responsible, had excellent driving skills, and went to great lengths to help us find animals. There were no hidden costs. The trip was very enjoyable, and we saw the animals we most wanted to see: 🐘🦒🦁🐆🦏🦛🦬... Tanzania is a very beautiful country, well worth a visit, and I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

The driver was very responsible and worked hard to help us find the animals, leaving us with no regrets and allowing us to see many wild animals. The accommodations were beautiful, the itinerary was perfectly arranged, and we wanted to stay longer. He's a trustworthy driver. There were no hidden costs; we'll definitely come back next time.

Excellent experience
5/5

In December 2025, we had a wonderful, tailor-made safari experience, visiting three national parks: Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. Each of the three different locations offered a unique experience. We also managed to spot the Big Five. The organization was quick and smooth, and the accommodation (Eileen's Trees Inn) was clean and nice. Champion is an excellent tour guide, showing us many interesting things, and he is friendly and speak English well.
