3. They arranged well for my birthday - Celebrations and Gifts.
4. Prices are also reasonable.
5. Northern Tanzania national parks are amazing which will take your breath away.
Bad Experience
Our initial guide driver KeiC spoiled the trip. He has big attitude problems since beginning. Our vehicle broke down multiple times in an easy path where hundreds of other vehicles passed, he didn’t even have any clue what to do next. Luckily other Safari drivers helped over and again. KaiC arranged some one who dropped us in wrong camp. Utter confusion.
For last 2 days they changed driver, but we lost previous time which is key in Safari. Substitute driver was better, Guide Abdul is average.
Do I recommend Rafiki Tembo
Yes, but they need to improve their selection of guide drivers because customers are spending so much money for this experience, can’t afford a driver guide like KaiC.

This experience will go down in my memory as one of the best!
Having never gone on a safari I really had no idea what I to expect but after the trip was over I was overwhelmed by it all. The personal attention to detail, the way things were so organized, the amount of broad knowledge that both guides shared with our group was so helpful.
We saw over 38 mammals and over a hundred different species of birds.
I also appreciated the respect the guides gave to the animals while at times there were several jeeps jockeying for position. Our guide was thoughtful to the animals while still getting close enough for great photo opportunities.
I always felt safe and assured that the day would be spectacular. We actually saw the BIG 5 the first couple of days of our 10 day experience. It was unforgettable!
Thank you Rafiki Tembo

A communicative, smooth and thoughtful operation.
Rafiki communicated all aspects of the tour in an upfront and professional manner. Accommodations and suggestions were made to our itinerary making the experience beyond our expectations. A ten day safari was made affordable and without question lodging was exemplary. Highly recommend Rafiki Tembo for your next adventure!

Disappointing Experience Due to Safety Concerns
Our safari experience raised serious safety concerns, including extremely aggressive driving on muddy roads and poor risk management. The situation became dangerous and forced us to interrupt the tour.
Handling afterward was disappointing, and communication lacked transparency.
Travelers should carefully consider safety standards and emergency response before booking.
