Malaki was the perfect guide for us!
5/5

My mom and I had the joy of going on a 5-day safari with Malaki last fall through Tarangire, Ngorongoro crater, and the Serengeti. He was a perfect match for us - responsive to our needs and interests, incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and parks, very professional, warm and friendly. He helped us spot all the animals on our wishlist, with lots of up close encounters. It was very magical, and the trip of a lifetime!

I went on a safari adventure with Malaki. He is an outstanding guide, dedicated to every detail. The organization was at the highest level. He truly went above and beyond to give us the trip of a lifetime! I wholeheartedly recommend him to everyone! Traveling with Malaki is a life-changing experience, something you will remember forever for the adventure, great new friends, and the knowledge you gain. Malaki doesn’t just guide you through a safari he creates an experience that stays with you long after the trip is over! šŸ˜

Absolutely amazing, kind, cooperative, compassionate and made us feel at home right from the start
5/5

We were a family of 4, 2 adults abd 2 teenagers, who planned our family holiday with Malaki Tours, for Tanzania from 9th June 2025 to 13th June 2025! Malaki was so professional and punctual from the beginning. Our driver and guide Jerry was so nice and knowledgeable! He had so much trivia throughout our travels. He was very obliging and understood our family unit and requirements perfectly to accomplish what we wanted our holiday to turn out to be! Malaki upgraded us on the first night to such a gorgeous hotel and our beginning itself was full of smiles. The trip was the most memorable family holiday we have ever had only because everything was looked after for us in detail and with a smile! Thankyou Malakiā™„ļø

Malaki is knowledgeable and goes above and beyond for his guests!
5/5

Our family of 10 just returned from Tanzania to celebrate my mother’s 86th birthday! The experience we had was absolutely indescribable! What made it even more special was our guide, Malaki! He made us feel so welcome, taught us so much about the Maasai culture, the wildlife and the overall African landscape. His knowledge of everything was spectacular and his genuine kindess made our entire family feel so welcome! He felt like ā€œfamilyā€ after only a few days. I would highly recommend Malaki’s services as an expert guide to anyone looking for someone who goes above and beyond for his guests!

Malaki gave us a once in a lifetime experience, everything we had hoped for and more!
5/5

We truly could not have been in better hands than with Malaki as our guide through Tanzania. Traveling from Serengeti, Ngorogoro crater and Tarangire national park, Malaki ensured we had the fullest experience. We were 10 people across 2 jeeps ages 80 down to age 12. Malaki didn't just drive us from place to place, he brought Tanzania alive for us. He was incredibly knowledgeable, gracious, warm-- and not to mention, full of humor, effortlessly managing logistics while enriching every game drive and cultural experience with context and insight. If you are looking for an expert and a person you can relax and put your trust in, Malaki is your guide!

An A+ safari guide who brightens every day
5/5

Our 4-person Tanzania adventure with Malaki of Malaki Safaris was beyond expectations. Malaki’s combination of professionalism, warmth, knowledge, passion, and cultural connection made the trip phenomenal. Our itinerary took us to Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Empakai, Lake Natron, and Central and Southern Serengeti. Every place awed us with the wildlife and scenery, and we enjoyed staying at a variety of lodges and tented camps, all in beautiful settings. We also spent 2 days hiking with local Maasai guides who taught us about some of their traditions and current realities facing pastoral people in Tanzania. Malaki is a skillful, responsive communicator, so trip planning was enjoyable rather than stressful. He provided suggestions, and he customized our safari according to preferences we expressed. Many Tanzania safari itineraries are similar, but it’s the guide who makes the biggest difference. Malaki is from a rural Maasai village, and he pursued his formal education in cities. He knows Tanzania’s landscapes, wildlife, and cultures from lived experience, and he truly loves sharing all of it. Our group had a particular interest in birds, and Malaki eagerly brushed up on his already impressive birding repertoire. When we had questions, Malaki usually had answers, and he often came back later with more information. He has stellar abilities maneuvering the jeep to maximize views and photo opportunities, and he manages to do so without ticking off other drivers. When one of our group members stayed on in Tanzania to do solo travel, Malaki continued to check in on him, occasionally arranging lodging or transfers as a courtesy. It’s not essential that one has a guide who you befriend and hope to see again, but with Malaki we got the best of both worlds, an A+ safari and a talented guide who brightened every day.

Malaki is the ā€œreal dealā€. Maasai, born living his life on this land. Spectacular guide!
5/5

A trip of a lifetime! We wanted a wildlife safari trip and experienced all that and even more. Malakiā€˜s intimate knowledge of the land, starting in childhood as a Maasai pastoralist in the Ngorongoro region gave him first-hand knowledge of every living thing throughout Tanzania. Later in life, he sought higher education that earned him certificates in guiding, tourism and all wildlife knowledge. We went on a private, two person moderately Price trip, which was more ā€œbang for our buckā€ than we ever dreamed of. He is well-known in the circle of guides and in affluent Safari camps (based on confirmation of previous employers.)
I promise you will not be disappointed. Malaki will do whatever it takes to ensure your trip is your dream a lifetime.
