High Neck Safaris was an awesome experience!
5/5

High Neck Safaris was excellent to work with. The experience was great, from the initial contact, through tour planning and all the way through top the final day of the safari. Our guide was Silva- he was an EXCELLENT guide. Very personable, easy going and very knowledgeable. Silva knew exactly where to go for us to see so many different species. He had an innate sense of where we needed to be at different time to see different things- whether it was upclose encounters with lions or being there at just the right time to watch the wildebeest river crossing, Silva always seemed to know where we need to be at the right time.
All of the overnight lodging locations were great, and the food was great also. The box lunches became a little monotonous as the trip went on- but beyond that all of the places we stayed and food were good.
I can't say enough good things about Silva- he was such a wonderful guide. After spending 8 days with Silva, I and the rest of our group now consider him a friend. Hopefully that will explain how much we appreciated his knowledge and enjoyed our time with him.

Yikes, it was SO GOOD!
5/5

We were delighted to see all the wild life in the area. BUT, without our guide, we would see much fewer wild life. SILVER drives and SEES animals with such speed that is like he arranges the wildlife for us. A real expert. We really appreciate him and his knowledge.
Also, we feel very safe with his driving.
Lastly, he fits in with our group very well and was very friendly.
Thank you!

Well organized, personable and enjoyable trip
5/5

We booked a private five day safari experience with Highneck, starting at Tarangire, going through Ngonongoro and Central Serengeti and ending at Northern Serengeti for the migration river crossings, flying out of Kogatende airstrip to Zanzibar. We had a great time and our guide Edward was a very personable and knowledgeable guide! We saw the river crossings twice thanks to his knowledge as well as so many other rare and beautiful animals, and learned a lot about Tanzania and the region. The price was very fair and cheaper than other offers, well worth it. I can definitely recommend others to book with Zakaria and High Neck / Edward. Cheers!

Fantastic guide, great value for money
5/5

We had a lovely smooth experience working with Anna. She gave us an extremely reasonable price to do a one day Ngorongoro safari. Frank was also an awesome guide, knowing exactly where to go to find all the animals and telling us a lot about the history, geography, and culture of Tanzania. Definitely recommend to anyone else looking for a reliable tour operator. They provided water and lunch for us as well.

Mambo Mazuri (all is good) - Most incredible safari experience
5/5

High Neck Safaris offered us an incredible safari experience. It was our first visit to Africa. We received all necessary information on time, and Octavian (our contact person) made sure, that the safari was customized to all our wishes. He answered to all our questions quickly. Everything was well organized, especially the transfer from the airport worked well, our driver was already waiting for us.
Our safari began in the morning in Arusha with meeting our guide Edward. He welcomed us with a friendly smile, and we already had a good feeling since the beginning. During our safari (7 days overall, 5 days out in the national parks), we were able to see every animal we could have wished for. Edward showed us incredible places, that were far away from the masses. He cared about everything and fulfilled all our needs and wishes. We learned a lot about the wildlife as well as the Tanzanian culture and people. We are very thankful for every minute, and enjoyed it to the best. Leaving Serengeti and Ngorongoro in the end of our trip was quite hard, because of its beauty and the great experience. To put it in a nutshell, we highly recommend High Neck Safaris to everyone!

Asante sana! Hakuna matata! (Thank you very very much!)

Professional and Meticulous
5/5

We selected Highneck Safaris among several local tour operators, as they provided a custom proposal that perfectly matched our needs. Communication was excellent both before and during the trip. Our driver, Edward, was not only a very good driver but also a knowledgeable guide. He took us beyond the standard tourist routes, showing us alternative paths where we could experience nature and wildlife without crowds or other vehicles. Considering our mid-to-high budget, the lodges and food were overall very good. We highly recommend this young yet professional tour operator.

Exceptional Five-Day Safari Experience in Tanzania
5/5

We had an amazing five-day safari experience in Tanzania, and the entire trip was perfectly organized. From start to finish, everything was carefully checked and planned in the best possible way.

The hotels were very comfortable, and all the meals were delicious. It was clear that every detail was thoughtfully considered to ensure a smooth and unforgettable experience.

A special highlight goes to our guide, Mr. Edward. He was extremely professional, attentive, and knowledgeable, guided us with great care, shared valuable insights about the country, wildlife, and local culture. His dedication truly made this safari a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
