An amazing safari with Nyasi Adventure!
5/5

We would highly recommend Nyasi Adventure for any Tanzanian safari. We booked a 3-day/2-night safari to Selous Game Reserve and it was absolutely amazing. Robert and Gaston were with us the whole time on our private safari. They picked us up at our hotel in Dar es Salaam and drove us to Selous where we stayed at the Kinga Lodge. The Kinga Lodge is an amazing place with wonderful rooms, staff, food, and views. Even before our trip we knew we made the right decision to go with Nyasi Adventure based on their responsiveness and thoroughness. We were able to customize our safari how we wanted and Robert was fantastic with providing options. We were provided a full itinerary for all three days of our safari before we left for Tanzania so there were no surprises; from what time we would get started each day, to what we would be doing, to what meals would be provided. Once we started our safari we were not disappointed. On our first day Kinga Lodge provided an evening boat safari where we saw hippos, baboons, crocodiles, and plenty of birds. The next day Robert and Gaston then took us on a day-long safari in Selous Game Reserve where we saw lions, an elephant, giraffes, impalas, kudu, wildebeest, hippos, zebras, and many more. Gaston did an amazing job driving and talking to the other guides to find out where animals had been spotted that day to make sure we saw as much as possible. He is an incredible guide with a wealth of knowledge about the local flora and fauna, and he got us closer than I ever thought I would be to some of these animals. On the last day we took a wonderfully educational and entertaining walking safari with some local guides before Robert and Gaston drove us back to Dar es Salaam. We could not be happier with our safari and our decision to book with Nyasi Adventure. If you're going to do a safari in Tanzania, book it with Nyasi Adventure.

Excellent Safari Adventure!
5/5

I would highly recommend this company for your adventures in Tanzania. My family and I went on the Selous Game Reserve Safari and we had the best time of our lives! Robert and Gueston were amazing tour guides. We learned so much from them and had a lot of fun. I cannot say enough good things about this company! They exceeded all of our expectations! Thank you Nyasi Adventures for an unforgettable trip!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Nyasi Adventures
5/5

Our experience with the team at Nyasi Adventures was amazing! Our group of four did a 3 day, 2 night private safari of Selous Game Reserve with a lovely stay at Selous Kinga Lodge. Robert did a fabulous job of organizing the safari for us and Gaston made sure we could safely but closely view and take lots of pictures of the animals we saw. When organizing our safari, Robert was very prompt and responsive to our requests and made sure the trip ran smoothly. We were provided a full itinerary for every day of the trip well before our safari so we could make it as customizable as we wanted. Robert and Gaston picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel. During our trip were able to have a variety of experiences including a boat tour on the Rufiji River, a full day driving safari of Selous, and a walking tour of the area. We saw lots of animals including, but not limited to, lions, giraffes, an elephant, water buffalo, zebras, wilderbeast, etc. and were able to visit and experience local places to eat both to and from Selous from Dar Es Salaam. I would highly recommend booking a safari with Nyasi Adventures based on our experience and the professionalism of the team. If you are looking for a safari adventure Nyasi Adventures is the way to go. Many thanks to Robert, Gaston, and the team for our unforgettable Tanzania experience!

Friendly and Knowledgeable Tour Guide
5/5

Davis was an excellent driver and tour guide. He drove us to Mikumi from Dar Es Salaam and was careful and cautious. My mother came with us and she was comfortable even though the driving in Dar Es Salaam was making her nervous. When we arrived, Davis ensured we could see as many animals as possible. He was knowledgeable about the animals and made the trip enjoyable.

5/5

Davis is amazing. He is passionate about his job and very professional. He is a good communicator, patient and also "charming". We had an amazing time with him and he really passed our expectations. We loved his company throughout the Safari. And yes we Sam a number of Simbas (lions) with him.

I cant wait to go back on a safari with him.

Excellent trip safari with Robert and Gaston
5/5

We did a safari with Robert and Gaston, they arrived on time, we even got a call in our hotel room to confirm the time he was planning on picking us up.
We drove 6 hours in a comfortable 4x4, they planned a car seat for my son of 2 years and half, he slept like a baby.

1st day: lunch in a restaurant overlooking the park, we could eat watching buffaloes, impalas and wildebeest then sunny safari ...
Robert and Gaston explained to us how animals lived.

they are very kind and available

I recommend Nyasi Adventure and I thank them

A magnificent safari in the Ngorongoro crater
5/5

Many thanks to Robert for organizing our African adventure. The children were delighted with the trip.
Special thanks to our guide to driver Davis. Two days of accompanying us and solving all the problems. One of them, for example, was a bridge washed away at night to Arusha airport. We were able to fully appreciate the skill of Davis and the willingness of his jeep to solve our problem :) - the crossing of the river. Thanks guys!

Splendid Safari - Tarangire/Ngorongoro
5/5

The team at Nyasi Adventure provided gave us a safari trip to remember! Being an operator made of local guides, Robert and his team arranged the perfect itinerary based on the length of our stay and our safari goals. We trusted their judgment and recommendations and we are so glad we did because the trip exceeded our already grand expectations. The safari jeep was incredibly comfortable and the accommodations they picked for us was world class. Davis (our driver/guide) ensured our safety throughout our journey and did an incredible job getting us in perfect positions to see the unforgettable African wildlife. We have recommended Nyasi Adventure to all of our family and friends and are already looking forward to going back for another visit with them. Thank you, Nyasi!

Fantastic safari operator, great communication, helpful with planning
5/5

I have only fantastic things to say about Nyasi Adventure! While planning our trip, we were overwhelmed with all of the options (where to visit, how long to stay, getting around inside the country), and the guys at Nyasi helped us out with everything before we even got there. They planned our flights inside, they gave us honest opinions on where we should go based on the time we had and what we wanted to see, booked our lodging, and took away the guesswork of planning. Specifically, we emailed them (and several other operators) about going to the Serengeti, and while the other operators said "sounds good, here's the price", Nyasi asked why we wanted to go to the Serengeti, then said they could make that happen, but also gave us other options that fit what we were looking for that better matched our timeline. They were quick to respond to our (tons of) emails, and overall very easy to work with. They let us make the decisions we cared about, and handled the rest perfectly.

When we actually got there, they were wonderful - every suggestion they had made for our trip was perfect. The communication between everyone was great too - we had indicated over email we wanted to see elephants, and our guides were made aware of that and made sure to spend some extra time when we came across some. I can't imagine a better safari experience, we saw everything I was hoping to see - elephants, lions, giraffes, hippos, even a blank rhino. Our guides were funny, courteous, and super helpful - I had a mobility issue on the trip that made getting around a little more difficult than normal, but it wasn't an issue at all. When we finished our tours for the day, we discussed what we were thinking for the next day, so we could change plans based on how we were feeling and what we wanted to see.

When we finished our safari we did hang around in Tanzania a bit more, but when we were concerned about having too much time at the airport before flying home, Nyasi set up a hotel for us, and even picked us up from the airport to take us to the hotel for our layover. We actually arrived an hour early, and thought we were going to have to wait for our ride, but he knew someone at the airport who called when we landed early, and we waited a total of 5 minutes. This is way above and beyond what I expected from a safari company, but it took all the stress out of our trip. In addition to the fantastic experience we had with them, it was nice to support a small business that was started and owned by locals. We've already started talking about our next vacation here, hoping to bring some friends and family, and will definitely book with Nyasi again!
