Cosmo is the best tour guide!!! ❤️
5/5

We went on a four day lodge safari with cosmo as our brilliant tour guide. He was super friendly and he helped us see lots of amazing animals. With the great help of Cosmo's eyes we did not only see the big five but also a lepard. The lodges were simple but nice and provided anything we needed to enjoy our safari. We highly recommend Cosmo as a tour guide and Wourld Tour Safari as a operator.

4-Night Camping Safari
5/5

The camping safari was excellent and was able to see all the animals up close. Also being able to camp in the national parks was great! Our driver Melik was superb at spotting animals

Excellent safari experience
5/5

First, the company (World Tour and safaris) was very responsive, and was very helpful when we consulted about issues such as accommodation, pick-up service and price adjustments.

Second, the tour has been very comprehensive to cover many rewarding sight-seeing spots like Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti park. The safari times were also very flexible as long as we discussed with the tour guide. We also visited the walking trail with a brief history of Serengeti and it was very rewarding.

Most importantly, the safari guide has been very welcoming and friendly. He was willing to answer any question, and was very flexible in terms of meeting and ending times. He also knew the places inside out, thus our trip has been very targeted and very lucky to have seen a lot of wildlife.

We highly recommend this safari service to anyone who is looking for a fruitful safari trip!

Amazing Safari!!
5/5

My girlfriend and I joined "World Tours & Safaris Tanzania" for our first Safari, 4-Day Amazing Tanzania Safari Experience, and it was simply incredible!

Even though we have got a bit nervous at the very beginning, but Richard could still work it out by promptly replying our emails and clearly stated all the details. When we arrived getting off from a 4-hour delayed bus, the pick-up has already been arranged, without the need to wander for our hostel at dusk.

And our driver/guide and cook were both outclassed! Horace, was just amazing, always spotting animals way before we could, even after half-day driver, and without him, we might not be able to spot all "The Big 5" in just 4 days. And our cook was great too! we just love all the food he made, especially the veggie soup, and everything was prepared when we just finished our game-drive.

I could not recommend you guys enough!!

4/5

World tours will probably be the cheapest deal you will get online - though AC cars and water coolers could be a possible addition they could add. We may have had a few issues with hotel choices and Richard's manner.. more due to miscommunication than anything else.. but overall our safari from tarangire to ngorongoro to serengeti was truly memorable all thanks to our guide, driver and friend Horace.. He went to all ends to ensure we saw all animals of choice, and would want to take us further even when we were tired, with a smiling OK to supplement it!
He would spot animals way before we did, treated us as friends, and helped make it a trip of a lifetime!

5/5

We took 4-days Safari (Manyara,Serengheti, Ngorongoro) with World Tour Safari and are very happy that we choose them. First of all I would like to thank our guide Mr. Osman - very professional guide who told us a lot of interesting things and with whose help we succeded to see BIG 5! Our safari (transfer, excursions, food) was well organized, all problems that appeared were quickly solved, so we recommend this company and especially our guide Mr. Osman))

Thank you for wonderful experience in Tanzania !!
5/5

We reserved 8days(30th Dec - 7th Jan) mid-range class tour by e-mailing to Mr.Richard.

Frankly speaking, at first we felt a little nervous,as it was first time to send such a big money through web.(of course it was fully securited web site tough)
We sent 50% first on booking and the rest of 50% was sent a few weeks before departure but anyway total 100% advance payment was required before departure.
Richard answered very quickly all of our questions, he updated all the situation right on time and the process was very smooth!
As many people say on this site, Richard works very quickly and that makes us relieved surely.
(Thanks for it Richard !! :D)

About tours itself,
Our driver(Mr.Horace) was very nice and professional guide and drive safety always.(That's why sometimes we feel asleep in the car...sorry! :D)
He accompanies us for 8 days always including a Happy new year !!
He was punctual always and knew a lot of things about animals,trees,birds etc.... and shared all the knowledge with us.
What is more he tought us what it is about Tanzania(culture,people,language,life,problem etc...) and that made our trips even special as it is always nice to know about the country itself.(in additional to main purpose which is Safari)

During the trip we faced flat tyre 2 times unfortunately(as expected !?) but no wonder as the road is very rough.
But Mr.Horace fixed it very smooth and quickly and it was no problem at all.(it was even good experience as a part of our journey)

We strongly recommend this company and the driver Mr.Horace especially.
Please enjoy it and von voyage !!!

Very bad experience with this company
1/5

Very unhappy with Richard Kilonzo and his Safari company:
We booked a 7- day Safari with Richard Kilonzo. To start with, we arranged that somebody from his company would pick us up at the bus station and take us to our hotel; nobody came. Someone from the bus station that didn' t work for him took us to his office. The entrance to the office is embarrasing, full of mud and puddles. He showed himself very friendly the very first day. Not like that the last day when we came back from Safari, that hardly had time to speak to us.
We were supposed to spend a full day driving in Ngoron- goro crater, from 06.00 a.m. until late in the afternoon, as it was written in the planing that he had sent to us when booking the Safari.
Our surprise was that the night before going into the crater he told us that it was not possible to spend the whole day. We could only be inside the crater for 4 hours (from 06.00 until 10.00 a.m.) and then we had to go out of the Park. The problem was that he should have paid one more day fees for us (we were four people in the jeep) in the crater, but he did not. He told us that "laws have changed lately" and he could not do anything, so if we wanted to stay more time in the crater, we should pay the extra- charge. If you look in the Official Website of the Parks, since so many years, the entrance- fee is paid for a 24- hour stay; if you want to stay longer, you have to pay another entrance. He lied to us. So after all, we could not be in Ngoron- goro crater for longer, which is one of the best Parks in Tanzania.
Moreover, the last two nights we were supposed to sleep in Tarangire campsite. He tried to convince us to sleep everywhere else, telling me that in that campsite there was no water (I do not know why), but finally, after my insistence, we slept there.. with hot- water showers. The last day or the Safari we were supposed to have a morning- drive game in Tarangire before coming back to Arusha, and what we really did was to have breakfast in the campsite and inmediately come back to the city; no game driving our last day of Safari, as it was written in our initial planning. He told us that we didn' t ask for the driving that morning... Why have I to ask about something I have already paid and it was included in the Safari plan??
Another german couple came with us for 4 days in the Safari. Richard changed their plans almost everyday, even every 2-3 hours sometimes the planning changed...
I would not recommend at all this company for a Safari in Tanzania. You cannot trust this man absolutely. He sold us a Safari that we haven´ t really done. I strongly recommend every tourist to look for another better and more reliable choice.

Great safari: well organized ad flexible
5/5

We had a great experience with World Tours & Safaris Tanzania.
In the process of choosing out operator, communication was friendly, fast and very clear. On arrival everything was well arranged and guide Stanley + chef Sokofo contributed to a safari we will never forget.
Campsites were good, would recommend 100%.
