Thank you for leaving us unforgettable memories in a lifetime
Dendea Safari provided us the best price for 2 persons' Kilimanjaro hiking and Safari trip in 8 days. Sudi the owner of Dendea Safari is reliable, responsive and very kind person who organized every detail of the trip for us. Our Safari guide Iddy is very experienced and nice, thanks to him we were able to see all the animals we wanted to see. It was really an amazing and unforgettable experience, I am happy I chose Dendea Safari.

An unforgettable adventure seamlessly organized from start to finish
We were a group of eight traveling together. Since we had paid our deposit well in advance, we naturally felt a little anxious before the trip started. However, the second we arrived, we realized all our worries were completely unnecessary.
The owner of Denda Safari is a super honest, down-to-earth middle-aged gentleman who made us feel completely secure and well taken care of from day one. Every single detail of our itinerary was flawlessly organized.
Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife. The accommodations, meals, and transport all exceeded our expectations. Everything was seamless, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment without any stress.
If you are looking for a trustworthy, genuine, and top-tier safari operator, I whole-heartedly recommend Denda Safari!

Wonderful experience
Sudi is a reliable guide with 20 years of experience. He knows how to find animals and secure the best locations. He is friendly, not talkative (to me it’s a plus) but quite knowledgeable - he recognizes every animal and is well-trained to understand their behaviors. Both hotels he chose (Golden Safari Camp & Karatu Villas Lodge) were very nice. We saw almost everything even the rarest ones. It was an unforgettable experience. I’d def recommend Dendea.

Best local tour operators and the best travel
Dendea's arrangements were incredibly thorough, offering the best value for money among all the local tour operators.
Before the trip, Dendea paid close attention to our needs, patiently answering our questions for three months.
During the trip, we saw many animals and witnessed spectacular sights. For example, we saw numerous prides of lions, elephants, zebras, and wildebeest, as well as newborn elephant calves, buffalo, and many other baby animals. Dendea's eyesight was superb; he could spot animals from a great distance and learn about their habits. In addition, we saw rare animals such as blue sheep, rock hares, and caracals.
Furthermore, Dendea's service was excellent. They resolved various issues for us during the trip, and the vehicle was well-equipped, with mobile Wi-Fi, fly swatters, and a refrigerator.
The meals and accommodations were also very satisfactory. We had lunchboxes and hot meals to choose from. Our accommodations were excellent; we could live next to animals, with hippos and rabbits grazing at night, and we could even hear lions roaring nearby – we truly made the most of our budget.
In conclusion, I was very fortunate to meet Dendea, whose perfect arrangements gave us an unparalleled life experience!

Excellent safari experience with knowledgeable guides
We had an amazing safari experience with Dendea Safaris. Communication before the trip was smooth and professional, and everything was well organized from start to finish.
Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and worked hard to help us find wildlife. We were fortunate to see a wide variety of animals, including lions, hyenas, elephants, giraffes, and many others. The guide was also very patient and happy to answer our questions about the animals and the ecosystem.
The vehicle was comfortable, the accommodations were great, and the overall itinerary was well planned. We always felt safe and well taken care of throughout the trip.
If you are looking for a reliable safari operator in Tanzania, we would highly recommend Dendea Safaris. It was truly a memorable experience for our family.

Journey of surprises and happiness
This trip was our honeymoon. After extensive online comparisons we chose Dendea Safari, and it proved to be the right decision. Our eight-day itinerary included Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu and the Ngorongoro Crater. We had close-up encounters with many animals, such as lions, cheetahs, leopards and rhinos, capturing unforgettable photos.
Sudi was our guide—a highly professional local expert. In addition to arranging safari activities, he also took us to explore the cities of Arusha and Karatu, visited Maasai markets, and helped us find a currency exchange with favorable rates. The vehicle was stocked with ice water, cola and snacks. He even thoughtfully prepared a bottle of wine for our honeymoon. He also brought along a Chinese guidebook on African wildlife, which greatly enhanced our journey and helped us learn about many new animals.
Of course, the journey wasn’t without its challenges. My husband fell ill with gastroenteritis midway. As February and March are the rainy season in Tanzania, the slippery roads led to encounters with heavy floods, multiple vehicle stucks, and even getting lost during camp relocations. Fortunately, thanks to Sudi’s extensive experience, all difficulties were smoothly resolved. We are both deeply grateful to him.
I am more than happy to recommend Dendea Safari to anyone planning a safari here. After all, surprises and unexpected moments are part of the journey—embrace and enjoy them!

An absolutely perfect trip！
I booked my trip to Tanzania with Dendea a year in advance for this February. They provided an excellent itinerary at a fair price, and managed to secure hotels that are usually very hard to reserve. When the sunset cocktail activity was cancelled, they refunded us without any hassle.
Our guide Walter was fantastic—he could spot so many animals, was caring and kind, and even helped other guides. In the end, we saw all of the Big Five.
Highly recommended!
