Great Safari, absolute worth it
We have been on a safari Tour for 5-6 days with top selected Tours, and it has been an amazing Experience. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Ndutu and Serengeti.
First the booking and planning was easy, quick answers, they try to organize everything to your liking and are trusworthy.
The safari tour is private, and John our Safari guide did a really good job. He tried to make everything possible, considered different interests and was real helpful and obliging. On top we saw so many animals, over 50 lions for example and had great views over the landscape.
The lodges wich have been booked were extraordinary, with real good service and super nice atmosphere. Just a little exception was the hotel in Arusha (tulip), wich was still fine.
So all in all we can totally recommend a tour with top selected and also with John! All the best to you and thank you again.

Always on time and very professional. He had great energy and kept the mood positive and fun throughout the trip.
Even though it rained a lot and the car got muddy every day, he made sure it was always clean and ready.

An Unforgettable Safari Adventure in Tanzania
Our safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti was truly one of the most amazing travel experiences we’ve ever had. Everything was very well organized, which made the whole journey stress-free.
The planning of the safari was excellent. Each day felt perfectly balanced — full of adventure but never rushed.
The accommodations were also great: comfortable, and located in beautiful natural settings. My personal love is staying in tented camp-lodge Tukaone Serengeti camp surrounded by the African savannah! It made the experience absolutely special! Waking up to the sounds of nature and watching the sunset over the plains is something I’ll remember for a long time.
A big part of why this safari was so special was our driver-guide, John. He was fantastic! Not only is he a very skilled driver (which is important on some of the park roads!) If anything unexpected came up, he handled it easily and always found a solution.
He also has an incredible eye for wildlife. Time after time he managed to spot animals that we would have completely missed on our own — lions resting in the tall grass, a leopard hidden in a tree, even rhinos far away in the distance.
Thanks to his skills — and a bit of luck — we managed to see the entire Big Five. That alone would have made the trip unforgettable. But we also had fun spotting the famous “Ugly Five”, which made the experience even more unique.
So, if you want to have the safari of your dreams, then with John as your driver you will on heaven!
Each park had its own atmosphere:
the massive baobab trees and huge elephant herds in Tarangire, the perfect place to see elephants - just an arm's length away!
the breathtaking views and dense wildlife in the Ngorongoro Crater. An unique park in the crater of an ancient volcano. Absolutely stunning views from above and a multitude of wild animals living their lives in a relatively small area, all the while allowing people to gaze upon them with rapt attention.
and the endless plains of the Serengeti - Oh, this is my personal crush! - filled with animals everywhere you look.
Words and descriptions are powerless here – the Serengeti simply has to be seen!
Overall, the safari exceeded our expectations — great organization, comfortable places to stay, incredible wildlife, and a truly excellent guide. We’re very grateful for this experience and would absolutely recommend it to anyone who dreams of seeing Tanzania’s amazing national parks. It was a trip we’ll never forget. 🐘🦁🌅

Our tourguide Jackson was amazing! Great stays, good lunch, well prepared.
It was amazing! We saw so many animals including the big 5! Jackson told us a lot about the animals, the parks and the Masai. The places we stayed in the parks were unbelievable. Beautiful locations, great people, good food and very clean.

Professional, Spanish-speaking safari experts, Daniel and John made it unforgettable.
Tanzania truly exceeded every expectation. Spending a full week exploring the parks was simply unreal. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five, and not from far away — lions resting just meters from the vehicle, a leopard crossing right in front of us, cheetahs out in the open. It honestly felt like being inside a wildlife documentary. The photos are incredible, but the real magic is the emotion you feel in the moment.
A huge part of this experience was thanks to our guides, John and Daniel. Their knowledge, timing, and instinct are on another level. They always seemed to know exactly where to go and how to position the vehicle for the best possible view. You never feel rushed — they make sure you truly experience each sighting.
Daniel speaking fluent Spanish made everything even more special for us. He didn’t just point out animals; he explained the history, culture, ecosystems, and local traditions throughout the journey. We came for a safari, but we left with a deep understanding of Tanzania and its way of life.
What we appreciated most was their respect — for nature, for the animals, and for us as guests. Nothing felt forced or intrusive. The entire trip felt responsible, authentic, and thoughtfully organized.
The food was consistently excellent, the lodges were comfortable and beautifully selected, and the overall service was professional yet very personal.
This wasn’t just a trip — it was a life experience. The kind you talk about for years and carry with you forever.
We would absolutely do it again, even with children. Experiencing nature at its purest like this is something everyone should live at least once.
Huge thanks to Daniel, John, Jackson, and Top Selected Tours for making it unforgettable.

Top Selected Tours and guides John & Dani made it effortless—we saw the Big Five thanks to them.
If you’re thinking about doing a safari in Tanzania, stop searching — this is it. After one week on safari in Tanzania, we can only say one thing: SPECTACULAR.
We’ve seen absolutely everything, including the Big Five — and incredibly close. Lions just a few meters away, leopards, cheetahs… moments that felt like they were straight out of a documentary. We captured amazing photos and videos, but honestly, the best part isn’t that — it’s the feeling of witnessing it live.
Our guides, John and Daniel, were key to making everything so perfect. If you book with Top Selected Tours, you have to ask to go with them. They know exactly where to go at the right time, they know the precise spots where the animals are, and they position the vehicle perfectly so you get the best possible view and can fully enjoy every moment.
Something that was especially important for us: Daniel speaks perfect Spanish, and throughout the entire trip he explained not only what we were seeing, but also the cultural, historical, and natural background of each place. We learned so much about Tanzania — its traditions, its wildlife, its way of life. It’s not just a safari; it’s truly understanding the place you’re visiting.
They completely adapt to you, and they have deep respect for the ecosystem and the animals — and you can feel that. At no point does it feel like anything is being forced. Everything flows naturally and responsibly.
The food was excellent every single day, the service was warm and highly professional, and the accommodations were very well chosen and extremely comfortable.
Without exaggeration, this has been one of the best experiences of our lives. It’s the kind of trip that leaves a mark on you forever — the kind that stays in your heart.
And the best part is that it’s an experience we would absolutely do even with children. Seeing nature in its purest state in this paradise is something everyone should experience at least once in their life.
We will definitely repeat.
Thank you, Daniel.
Thank you, John.
Thank you, Jackson.
Thank you, Top Selected Tours!

very good
I highly recommend Top Selected Tours. They truly deserve the "Top" title. I selected them from over a dozen local tour agencies. Our guide, Jackson, is an outstanding one with 16 years of experience. He is an experienced driver, so even if it rained, our vehicle would not get stuck. During the trip, Jackson helped two stuck vehicles and one with a flat tire. During our 8 days and 7 nights, we saw the Big Five of Africa, witnessed lion mating, and many baby lions. They were so cute. Jackson's rich experience made our trip perfect. He always found the best photo spots and was knowledgeable, sharing a lot of information with us. His eyesight was excellent, spotting animals from a distance. He was like a man with a built-in telescope. The accommodation and itinerary were very well arranged, allowing us to see all the animals we wanted. The price was also very reasonable. I don't know how he did it, but for the same itinerary and accommodation, Top offered me the most reasonable price. The communication before the trip was also very smooth. I highly recommend them to everyone. If you come for a safari, please choose them! They will give you a wonderful experience.

Fantastic
The travel agency and the guide were absolutely, positively, incredibly amazing!
The guide's eyes were seriously superhuman. On the last day, when we were looking for rhinos in the crater, they were extremely far away. We eventually needed binoculars and had to focus for a while just to see them, but he could spot them precisely! He truly has eagle eyes—a man with built-in binoculars!
Moreover, the guide was very friendly. He patiently communicated with me even though my English isn't great, and he even helped me look up corresponding introductions in the Chinese "Wildlife Handbook."
Highly recommended!

An unforgettable adventure!
We had an amazing Safari in Tanzania! The landscapes were stunning, and the wildlife was incredible. The absolute highlight was watching a pride of lions feasting on a fresh kill just metres from our vehicle – such a raw and powerful sight. We were also lucky enough to spot a rare black rhino in the Ngorongoro Crater. An experience we will never forget! Highly recommended.
