Amazing experience and people
5/5

We went on a three day safari to Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater.
The guide, Obeni, made sure our experience was amazing, sharing his knowledge about the wildlife and making sure we had a great time.
The cooks made sure to give us a good taste of local food which was also very nice !
Overall, the organization of the trip was flawless, with enough time in both parks to spot all the animals we wanted to and even stop to observe them.
Would definitely recommend !!

An unforgettable 5 day Safari experience with GoMakini
5/5

We had an amazing 5-day safari with Go Makini, visiting the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park. The entire experience was fantastic, from the incredible wildlife encounters to the beautiful landscapes.

Our guide, Rickie, was excellent! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife, making the whole journey even more special. We learned so much and had the opportunity to see incredible animals in their natural habitat.

The accommodations were also very good, comfortable, and well organized, making each day of the safari even more enjoyable.

We highly recommend Go Makini to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. Thank you to Rickie and the whole team for an unforgettable experience and memories that will last a lifetime! 🐘🦁❤️

Really great days with Raymon :)
5/5

In August my girlfriend and I had a five days/four nights safari (Tarangiere, Serengeti, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara). We had a brilliant time! All the time, before the booking, after it and while we are on safari the communication was always polite, helpfull and with fast replies. The whole tour had a very good reliability. From the pick up at airport (for free!) till every morning: The drivers were always on time - a characteristic which is not so common in tanzania. Our guide raymon was great too! All in all I would recommend the tour definitly to everybody and when I turn back to Tanzania, I will turn back to Makini!

Reliable and knowledgeable
5/5

A reliable agency with a good selection of hotels. The car was fantastic, as was our driver, Adrian—a cheerful guy who would stop wherever and for as long as we wanted, and who was there to assist us every step of the way. I believe that the driver, the vehicle, and the hotels are crucial to the overall experience. Thank you, sincerely!

5/5

We had an amazing safari experience in Tanzania with Adrian as our guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and passionate about wildlife. He made sure we had the best possible experience, helping us spot amazing animals and sharing fascinating information about their behavior and the beautiful landscapes.

Adrian went above and beyond to make our safari unforgettable. His patience, attention to detail, and enthusiasm made every game drive special. We felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the entire trip.

We highly recommend our guide Adrian to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. He truly made our experience exceptional, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you, Adrian, for creating memories that will last a lifetime!

Local company with perfect execution and great & kind guide
5/5

We had a 7 day / 6 night safari with Makini and it was amazing! From the planning and customizing based on our requests and feedback, to the communication, to the actual safari. Simon (nicknamed "Safari Monster") was an amazing guide and driver: super knowledgeable, funny, well connected with other drivers and guides. He managed to find the perfect spots for watching the animals while taking into account our wishes. He was polite, knowledgeable about the animals but also the history and culture of Tanzania. Being a hobby wildlife photographer, he sent us his amazing close-ups of the animals. I could write a whole essay about our 7 days but let me summarize: about 1,000 pictures per day, 60 distinct types of animals, 7 water crossings, endless number of lions close up, 2 cheetas, 2 leopards, cheetah and lion cubs, 1 bouquet of roses, 2 bottles of (sparkling wine), 3 cakes (it was our honeymoon). The lodges were amazing as well, very comfortable (huge bed, electricity, warm water, etc.)

Amazing!
5/5

The guide is the most important part of any safari, and we were fortunate to have an absolutely wonderful one! Juma was exceptional throughout the trip, always ready with answers to our questions. His driving skills were excellent, especially on the rugged roads of the Serengeti, and his patience and professionalism made the entire experience even more enjoyable. We were lucky enough to spot all of the Big Five and even witness the incredible river crossings!

A special thanks to Lissa as well for patiently answering all our questions before the trip and ensuring everything was clear and well organised. Communication was transparent, smooth, and reassuring from start to finish.

Highly recommend this team to anyone planning a safari! They truly made our experience unforgettable.
