Great experience, the best service!
5/5

Maybe they dont have many reviews in the internet but they really exists! (we were afraid of it;)) check their # on the instagram! We were on 3 days safari in Mikumi NP and stayed in camp bastian which has pool and beautiful garden. The food was great, you can choose from few options of dishes. Very clean cottages. Everything was perfect organized, we started and finished in ferry terminal in dar es salam. we don’t need to looking for Asna, she found us;) Our guide Endrick was very nice and knew every animal we spot. And he has also good eye to find animals which was far far away. He knows when to ride and when to stop and give us time to feel the atmosphere of the place. Don’t hesitate if you want to go with them, you got more than you think you paid for;)

Great
5/5

First, we were worry regarding the price and what we will get, and then we were more than satisfy about it. Asna is a great organisator and reliable, she answered quickly to all my request. She welcomed us in person. Juma the driver from the taxi was great, and Endrick our guide for the safari is a great guide, really compétent and friendly. The lodge is fantastic, view on the river, with the hippo at few meter. Our private chef, Rachidi make us great meal, Wine and water included and the lunch box was really good.
I recommand to all, it's a great value regarding the price of it, it's defenatly worth it and the team is more than friendly and professional. Thanks all

Very professionally and customer friendly Service. Amazing experience!
5/5

Hello,
we were lucky to book a 3 day Mikumi park safari with a Endric as a Guide. We were picked up from the airport , much earlier as it was written in the offer, because our plane came in the night. With no extra charge for it. From the very beginning and every day we were surprised about the high quality of service and the punctuality which we did not expect to have in Africa. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable. we lived in the cottage, the whole house with separated bath (hot water) and toilet , terrace only for us). Endric , our guide, is a very professional and responsible guide, who treat the nature with a big respect. He loves his job and it was a big big please to have him. He speaks good english and could share with us his knowledge about the animal world. Firstly, in our travel life, somebody tried to make our tour and every hour of it the best one. Moreover, Endric is not only a professional guide (He spotted some animals from the distance, even when we came closer we could not see anything firstly, every time it was our admiring of his skills!), nice person, he was even like a friend for us in that 3 days. He knew when to explain us something and when to let us space for our own conversation or just calm for enjoying. You know, sometimes guides are talking with no stop, that you have a had ache at the end of the day. With Endric it was extremely good balanced.
We have nothing to complain at all, we would like only to wish everything the best to Selous Explorer Company and especially Endric (BIG THANKS for everything). It was amazing. Nothing could be better. We warmly recommend this tour.

Dreams come true!!!

Best regards,
Kateryna & Vladi

Amazing 3-day safari in the Selous Game Reserve
5/5

We had an amazing experience with Selous Explorer, more specifically with our guide Nestor and our cooker Rashidi. Thank Asna for answering my emails because there were many . Everything was perfect, Nestor is a master in finding animals (we even saw a leopard !) and Rashidi cooks really delicious meals. The car is comfortable, there is always cold water during the activities and the team is very kind. They do everything for you in order to have a perfect safari. We highly recommand Selous Explorer for doing safaris, considering the fact that they have the best quality-price ratio.
Thank you million times Nestor, Rashidi and Asna ! You have made our holidays unforgettable.

Best regards,
Alexandra & David

Awsome trip with the best compagny !!!
5/5

We were a group of four people, we had opted for the formula 3 days 2 nights in camp which is enough to fully enjoy the experience.
The camp was comfortable : tween size bed, shower and hot water ...
The experience was unforgettable, the first day we went on a boat safari to see hypopotamuses, crocodiles and different types of birds.
We spent the second day at the Selous game reserve where we had the opportunity to see several animals giraffes, zebras, lions, elephants and so on, with a very friendly, motivated driver who made us discover the reserve. The experience ended with a very informative walking safari.
The staff was extremely friendly, always attentive, the cook concocted us succulent dishes !
Thank u Selous Explorer (Asna, Nestor & Rashidi) !!

Fantastic company, Fantastic Safari
5/5

I very rarely write reviews but on this occasion I thought it appropriate. I have never been on a Safari before and didn’t know what on earth I was doing when I was booking, there are so many options and I didn’t know where to start.
We emailed Norbert and he was very prompt with his replies, we didn’t need to exchange money until we were collected for the Safari, which was reassuring as other companies wanted 50% deposit.
We were picked up on time from our Hotel, I was a pain and didn’t have USD (I thought I could get them from an ATM in Dar which I couldn’t). Our tour guide (forgive me I have forgotten his name) was absolutely wonderful and drove me to a bank and waited for over and hour for me to sort out some USD’s.
The Safari was relaxing, we chose when we wanted to be collected each day (3 day Mikumi Safari), he knew a lot about the animals and we found ourselves seeing some really fantastic sights! Elephants meters in front of us, lions mating and much more.
I was really thankful that we booked through Selous!
We stayed in the TanSeiss accommodation which was also great.
Thanks for a wonderful first safari experience.

Excellent Safari, excellent value for money
5/5

We did a 5-day safari to Mikumi and Selous. From the moment I sent the first inquiry about the safari, everything went smooth. Norbert replied really fast to my emails and messages on whatsapp and was always willing to answer questions about our trip and also helped us with booking domestic flights tickets for our trip to Zanzibar afterwards.
The first day of the safari, our guide was there on time to pick us up. Throughout the trip he has been very helpful and arranged everything according plan. He was very familiar with the area and shared his knowledge and experience about Tanzania, the areas we visited in particular and all the animals we saw.
The hotel and camp we stayed were relatively basic, but clean and all things we needed were there (and for us part of our safari experience as well). The food that was served was overall of good quality.
Definitely recommend people to use Selous Explorer for their safari in Tanzania!

3 days in the reserve of Selous, the dream! The accommodation at the top (lodge), exceptional service, meals and service at the top. The safari will remain unforgettable, the animals were superb (just the lions who did not want to show themselves), fantastic! Thank you very much
