Wildlife experience with the right amount of adventure
Adam was simply a fantastic guide! He always went out of his way to give us the best possible insights, and his knowledge of nature was truly impressive to us. The nature experience we were able to enjoy here was breathtaking from start to finish. The chef who accompanied us also deserves nothing but praise. His food was delicious, and his friendly demeanor was very pleasant.
We were also very satisfied with the accommodations (considering the price). There’s just one thing I’d like to point out: the first campsite in Serengeti Park doesn’t quite meet the standards that tourists who don’t camp often might expect. It was sufficient for us, but I can imagine there are better options for a little more money. I’d also suggest increasing the portion sizes a bit—since if it had been a larger group of guys, there certainly wouldn’t have been enough.
The Simba Campsite, on the other hand, was very good.

Not a Good Experience - Was a bad experience
This situation are bad because:
- the jeep was old, and full of problems, and unfit for the safari, as it turned out.
On the very first day, the starter motor stopped working, and the jeep could only be pushed... it broke down in the Serengeti park, and it doesn't seem to me that the guide made the best decision, leaving us in the middle of the park to close it. Fortunately, another driver from the Leopardo company noticed the situation and took us to the entrance/exit gate.
The jeep should have been replaced immediately, but it wasn't.
It was partially replaced during the third day. To top it all off, on the last day, the lights went out at night in the middle of the road, leaving us tourists stranded on our way back to Arusha. We were helped by the Maasai people, and a replacement vehicle was provided to take us to Arusha.
This situation had several consequences, as we arrived very late, around midnight, in Arusha and Moshi, when we were supposed to arrive in the late afternoon.
In short, regrettable situations that were unnecessary and ended up making the safari experience a rather unpleasant memory. Only the idea of some good parks in Africa remains.
On the other hand, the first and only lodge we stayed in was not the one that was planned in the program.
I regret this whole situation and the inconveniences caused, as it did not correspond to what was contracted and what I paid for.
Obviously I'm in Europe, obviously Tanzania is in Africa... I don't know if I'll return to Tanzania, but with this experience, I certainly won't recommend your services to my friends here in Europe

Excellent guide and tour
I have been twice on safari with Abuu in Tarangire, the Ngorongoro crater and in Serengeti.
He knows where to find the animals in the parks, and looks for the best areas to avoid other vehicles and still spot a lot of animals,
Great safaris and he organises tours to fit all budgets - and is very reliable and replies quickly to mails and whats apps.

Wonderful, Amazing, Breathtaking
We spent 8 wonderful days in Tanzania with Abuu, and the experience was truly unforgettable.
From the moment we arrived, Abuu made us feel welcome and cared for. He handled every detail with professionalism, kindness, and genuine passion. His love for Tanzania, its wildlife, and its people was evident throughout our journey and made it even more special.
The safari was fantastic, with breathtaking landscapes and unforgettable wildlife encounters. What stood out most, however, was Abuu. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, always with a smile and remarkable hospitality.
Thank you, Abuu, for your dedication, friendship, and care throughout these 8 days. We leave Tanzania with wonderful memories and wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable safari experience.

Program not respected and very rude guide
Unfortunately we did not have Abu as a guide but Ruben.
This guide was not attentive at all, did not explain much to us, was speedy all the time and did not respect the program despite our multiple attempts to communicate with him.
Very disappointed.
He was so rude that no one wanted to tip him at the end...

Very rude and disrespectful guide
Very rude and disrespectful guide
The guide did not respect the schedule and made us leave later than planned every day.
We were supposed to spend 2 full days in Serengeti and that turned into 2 short half days (the agency saved a day's pass on our backs)
He didn't want to stop when we wanted and barely answered our questions
Fortunately the cook was very nice!

Profesionalizm and pasion
When I think about Abuu's Tanzania Tours, the first thing that comes to my mind is profesionalizm. Starting from Abuu himself who was very responsive and answered a lot of our questions before even our safari started (not all of them conected to safari), came to pick us up from the airport and later after the trip to ask about our experience. Then our amazing guide Mbwana who was very knowledgeable and patient to answer all our questions (we had them so many!). He is a man who is very pasionate about his job. Ending up on our chef Atman who cooked so delicious meals and what was the most important for me - he was preparing for breakfast one of the best crepes I have ever eaten!

Very commited people doing the best they can
When I was a child and saw "The lion King" the first time, I was dreaming to see all of those animals in reality. I was reading a lot about Serengeti and the last week my dream came true.
It was one of the best experiences in my life. We're so close to wild nature. We could admire mammals and birds, trees and lakes. Our guide, Mbwana, told us a lot about all of the animals we saw and replied every question we asked. Even these stupid ones ;) I still admire he's huge knowledge. He's very outgoing and nice person. We were joking and he helped us in everything. Anyway he's a good driver as well :D
Our cook, Athmani, was preparing the gorgeous food during the days of safari. We fell in love in he's pancakes! But everything was really tasty and we were full after every meal :D
It was great adventure to go through the national parks, look for the animals, sleep in tents and admire the milky was above our heads during the night.
I highly recommend these people, cause they can organize the best safari in your life!
