Fantastic communication, Great tour guide and and unforgettable experience!
5/5

We had an unforgettable week exploring Tanzania National Parks with Topy Tours!

From the start the communication was excellent, Jackson replied within minutes every time! The booking system was easy and the website showed great choice of Safari’s! The transfer between hotel and airport was flawless and very easy.

The accommodation was fantastic! The best we’ve stayed in! Our favourite was the Moyo tented camp! A must if you’re visiting the Serengeti! All the hotels and lodges were unbelievable. The Gran Melia in Arusha was fabulous as well, a perfect start and end to our safari. Escarpment Lodge had amazing views and pool, very much recommend. The Serena Lodge was also great, the view over the Crater was unreal and we even saw elephants through our binoculars!

All the staff at the hotels, camps and lodges were very welcoming and attentive. They made us feel at home! Lucy at the Escarpment Lodge was the best!

The food in all of the accommodation was some of the best we’ve had! The Gran Melia even has its own vegetable garden and coffee plantation! The packed lunches each day were very tasty and filling!

The national parks were excellent. Our favourite was the Serengeti, we saw 4 of the big 5 here with the final 1 spotted in the Ngorongoro crater. The best experience ever!

Our tour guide Ibrahim, was fantastic! He made it his mission to get us to see the big 5 and without him this wouldn’t have happened. He was very knowledgable and would always point out matters of interest and explain what they were or how they worked. Even on the drive through Arusha to the National parks! He organised a meeting of a local Masai village, where we met locals and had a tour. We loved the vehicle and the fact we were able to stand up through the popped roof, this made better viewing of the animals! In total we saw over 40 species… and that’s not including the amazing birds we saw! So many wonderful eagles!

Our absolute highlight was when Ibrahim drove us to see a leopard! A moment we will never forget and haven’t stopped talking about! Thank you Ibrahim for a wonderful week Safari… we won’t miss the African massage of the roads though!

Highly recommend booking with Topy Tours! The only thing I would change is that we didn’t book for longer!

Ben was the perfect tour guide, incredibly knowledgeable and made the week as fun as possible!
5/5

This safari was everything we could have hoped for! Our tour guide Ben knew just where to look for each animal, had a deep wealth of knowledge about the country, the savanah, and the wildlife that lived there, and made the days so enjoyable with his stories and conversation. The accommodations were all stunning as well, with the Gran Melia and the Escarpment being our favorites. Jackson from Topy Tours was very responsive with any questions we had before arrival as well. We would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone heading to Tanzania and the Serengeti! Thanks again for a wonderful week, you guys really made sure our honeymoon was a trip we will never forget!

Topy Tours is a gold-standard operator that delivers a seamless, high-quality safari experience wher
5/5

After looking into many different operators, we settled on Topy Tours for our 6-day safari, and it was an excellent decision!

We want to give a special thanks to Jackson for his incredible attention and for organizing the entire tour so perfectly. He was professional and responsive from the very beginning, ensuring that every detail was taken care of. Thanks to his planning, everything was exactly as agreed upon, with no surprises or hidden costs. It was a very smooth and reliable process.

We also want to thank Assad, who was our guide on the first day and gave us a great start to the trip. Our guide for the rest of the journey, Joseph, was also fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and professional, doing a great job of helping us spot the Big Five and making sure we enjoyed every moment out in the savanna.

The hotels were another major highlight—they were absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations. It was a pleasure to stay in such lovely accommodations after each day of adventure.

We highly recommend Topy Tours, Jackson, Assad, and Joseph for anyone looking for a well-organized and high-quality safari experience!

We had a fantastic time
4/5

Topy Tours is a reliabel organisation. They offer different tours in Tanzania. We booked a tour to Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro crater, Serengetti NP and Lake Manyara. Because of the rain Lake Manyara wasn't possible to visit. Topy Tours offered another good option: Mto wa Mbu Bike Tour - Cultural Cycling Experience. This was really nice.
Topy Tours is very quick in answering questions, they had a really good itinerary for a good price.
We had guide Ben for the Safari. He was a great guy as person. He spotted many animals for us. That made our Safari very special.

A perfect way to make your Tanzania experience
5/5

If you want a fantastic time in Tanzania, with of course an safari experience you should book with Topy tours.
Booking, replying, info was good to find. A good price/quality balance.
We travelled the last week with Ben(endict) and was really so good.
Fine (safe) driver, guide and person, with lots off know-how about all the parks, routes and animals.
When we were stil looking for animals, he already spotted them from far away.
Also very fine is that Ben has a natural way off how he must park the (great, well maintained, clean, provisied with cold drinks) car.
In the most perfect positions, he placed the car, so we could make great pictures from the animals.
For Some drivers it can be challeging where to stop, but Ben made it seem easy.
Because off Ben we have seen the big five!
We have seen almost 50 lions, 15 cheeta’s, so many birds, more then 10 rhino’s, so much zebra and wildebeast. And a fantastic all alone spot with a leopard in a tree, so close by!
Ben also gave us so much information about the animals.
Topy tours with our guide Ben made our safari so memorable, and I am my husband greatfull hè has found Topy tours online.
When we come back to Tanzania, because iT is so beautifull, we definelity book with Topy tours again, and hopefully Ben could en our guide again and show us the different parks Tanzania has to offer.
Topy tours picked is up from the airport, and from beginning to the end it was fantastic. We travelled in the wet season, and Ben made sure we never goten stock somewere. His driving capacity gives you trust and a way that you can sit down and just relaxe from all the beautifully things Tanzania has to offer. You can feel he has got your back and he shows you the animal and good spots.

Absolutely the Best in the Business, this was our 2nd trip with Jackson, Ben + team!!
5/5

Being the 2nd trip with Topy (1st Dec 2024), this time was even better. While we saw abundant wildlife, several sightings of the “shy rhinos” was the the most exiting. This time we requested the same guide Ben (who seems to have additional set of eyes on the back of his head) who has an amazing knack for spotting animals in unusual places.

Our friends, a couple from the States had the misfortune of being airborne when the attacks on Iran began, resulting in their flight turning back to USA. Being absolutely determined to make it for the safari planned a year in advance, they immediately rebooked via alternative route to reach JRO a day late. Jackson went out of his way to ensure our friends joined us a day into our safari (we did Ngorongoro the first day) and also adjusted the programme to cover Ngorongoro on return from Serengeti.

Our friends and us (3 couples) were absolutely thrilled with the experience and sincerely thank Jackson, Ben, Andrew + team for a memorable safari.

Most likely go back to Topy for a “Migration Tour”.

Brilliant Ben successfully listened to all we wanted and enhanced the experience beyond expectation!
5/5

Starting with finding the right package, Jackson was so quick to respond and helpful. Arriving at the Airport, Andrew was such a cheerful sight to welcome us and get us safely to our hotel. THEN the piece de resistance (crowning glory) was our safari guide Ben. He was so cheerful, knowledgeable and most importantly he listened to what WE wanted from the safari. He worked so hard and made such an effort to deliver what we asked and MORE! Accommodations were all very good and what we expected. The vehicle was well kept and perfect for the Tanzanian “massage” roads. All the viewings were so exceptional, from the birds, our focus, to the magnificent beobabs, fabulous wildebeasts with zebras, to the magnificent large cats. We saw it all and not just in the distance but up close and personal. Our first day walking safari in Arusha led by Michael was most informative and thrilling to be walking amongst the buffalo, giraffes and viewing the waterfall. Thank you all at Topy you really did make our dreams a reality.
HIGHLY APPRECIATED AND RECOMMENDED. Hakuna Matata.

Amazing 7-day safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours
5/5

We went on a 7-day private safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours for our honeymoon and had an amazing experience. Everything was organized perfectly beforehand. Our guide, Ben, went above and beyond to exceed our expactions. He spoke English perfectly, knew all the details about flora and fauna and had such a sharp vision that he spotted animals from a very far distance. More than once, other guides asked him for help because they couldn't spot the animals themselves. The hotels and lodges were beautiful and the service in every single one of them was excellent. I 100% recommend a safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Topy Tours
5/5

We were recommended Topy Tours, and we couldn’t be more grateful for it. From our very first message with Jackson, we felt we were in the best hands. He listened to us carefully, guided us with patience, and made sure our safari became everything we had dreamed of. He also took care of us from the moment we landed until the day we left.

Our safari was short, but thanks to our guide Joseph, a truly wonderful person with a genuine passion for what he does, it felt absolutely perfect. His dedication meant we didn’t need more days at all — we saw every single animal we hoped for, including the Big Five!

This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will stay with us forever.

We wholeheartedly recommend Topy Tours!!
