excellent couldn't be better.
5/5

Excellent, from Evelyn to Sky our driver very professional, accommodating, always ready to answer our questions
and the last thing was that we had not seen the lions and he managed to show us the lions after communicating with various other drivers and made our day. I would recommend this to anyone who is thinking of booking a safari with Seven Wonders. Upon my request she had booked me in Tan Swiss Lodge, but unfortunately the trip advisor comments did not match our expectations. Packed lunch they gave us was disgusting, first day evening dinner was terrible, service was not unto par etc. very disappointing. Accommodation, well they crammed 3 beds into a room and didn't have space to move, or put our suitcases. AC didn't work the whole time we were there.

I would never go there again or recommend this place to anyone.

Thanks Evelyn and Sky.

Amazing Safari Experience!
5/5

Our time with Seven Wonders Safaris was excellent and a definite highlight on our trip to Tanzania! We did a 6-day lodge safari and our guide, George, had a lot of experience and passion for wildlife. I've been on a couple of other safaris and this one was definitely the best yet. I think that had a lot to do with George and his knowledge and love for what he does. Evelyn (our tour consultant) was also great in organizing the trip - she was very responsive to emails and when a couple of the original lodges were booked, she found other accommodations right away which were even better than expected. In doing research when planning the safari, there were a lot of European- and U.S.-based companies that charged a lot more for a similar (or not as nice) experience. I considered some of them since they offered credit card payment (which Seven Wonders does not), and I wasn't sure I wanted to send a wire transfer. But Evelyn is very trustworthy and the wire transfer went through without a hitch. I will definitely recommend this to any family and friends that make the journey to the quintessential safari destination of Northern Tanzania. And I definitely recommend this to whoever is reading this review!

Perfectly planned, wonderfully executed safari adventure
5/5

Seven Wonders Safari was amazing. We worked with Evelyn for several months as we tweaked our vacation plans. She was generous with her time and was very responsive to our changing requests and questions. She made the entire planning and booking process very easy, smooth and stress free. Evelyn had great suggestions and was awesome in planning an eight day adventure. The final trip she worked out for us was well orchestrated with each successive day being better than the previous ones. The accommodations were really nice that she set up and we loved the trip tremendously. Our guide for the trip was really amazing too, which is important when you are spending so much time together. His name was Living and he was extremely friendly and well spoken. His knowledge of all the animals, birds, local culture and African history really made the trip a learning vacation. We were a little sad when we left Evelyn and Living at the end of our trip as we had all become close friends. We look forward to working with them again and seeing them in the future.

Our awesome guide made the most of our time on safari.
4/5

Going with 7 Wonders Safari was a great decision. When comparing prices with other operators, the price at 7 Wonders were much lower and I am sure our service was on par with any other operator on the savannah. Evelyn, who helped us organize via email was helpful with all our requests and inquiries right up to the moment we arrived in Arusha. Very flexible, understanding and easy to work with.

Our guide George was 1st rate and had a plethora of knowledge about the flora and fauna we encountered. He definitely took our experience to another level with his experience and confidence. He also made sure we got to see the Big 5 safari sightings (Lion, Leopard, Rhino, Elephant and Cape Buffalo).

The vehicle was reliable and comfortable. The lodges which we stayed were 1st rate was well.

If we were to safari in this region again, our search would start with 7 Wonders Safari.

Exceptional service, fantastic trip AND great value for money!
5/5

A friend and I booked a six-day climb up Kilimanjaro as well as a six-day safari with Seven Wonders Safaris, and we were very pleased with every aspect of the vacation. From the organiser at Seven Wonders (the amazing Evelyn) to the mountain guide (the indefatigable Barroco) and safari guide (the all-knowledgeable George); the service we received was top class.

The climb up Kilimanjaro, through the Machame route, was well organised. The food prepared for us was good, and the tents and other equipment were good quality too. The guides and porters were both friendly and professional – I am certain that without their support and knowledge we would never have reached the top.

The safari was a unique experience, visiting four national parks: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our guide, George, demonstrated both academic knowledge and field experience, and has a great eye for spotting animals. We were lucky to see each of the Big Five several times as well as many more animals. George knew the answers to any questions we had about flora or fauna in the parks, and drove safely and competently.

At all times with Seven Wonders Safaris, we knew we were in good hands. Evelyn and her team took fantastic care of us. I would highly recommend the company to anyone looking to visit Tanzania!

we were on a 5 day safari trip, which was great. This was in may, and we were tenting, paid 830 usd each. Our guide Johnson was very professional and had a great eye, so we got to see the big five andTove much more. The food was really good too, thanks to our chef Raphael who cooked us breakfast lunch and dinner every day. We can truly recommand 7 wonder safaris.

5/5

I actually got hooked up with this company through another company in Kenya who proved to be disastrous but nonetheless this company was excellent and comparison. Even though a lot of what I received onto it was not what I was promised again through the manager of the original company who set me up with these guys, had a true budget camping Safari with no facilities been what I was looking for these guys did a great job. Becker the guide and Rafael the cook were friendly and efficient and provided excellent food and knowledge about the area and animals. I can't get over how good the food was really I was so impressed. Becker joined us every night at dinner and was so professional it was just great. If I shall return I will go straight to him for a tour as he was good.

I had a good time in Tanzania with this local agent. It locates in Arusha and knows very well about Safari and Mountain. They offer many plans which meets your budget so it is better to ask them first. I highly recommend this Agent.

A fine adventure at a reasonable rate.
4/5

the "budget" group safari that i joined through seven wonders easily met expectations. travel in kenya (nairobi to amboseli park) was arranged by michael of ancient wild safaris in nairobi; he provided a driver and cook who were courteous and knowledgeable. the trip into tanzania and the serengeti also included helpful guide and cook and was deftly organized by evelyn of seven wonders in arusha. as advertised, we camped at private and public sites. accommodations were rough-hewn but adequate, and attendants did the heavy lifting by preparing wholesome meals and comfortable sleeping arrangements. the wildlife was bodaciously abundant and the trackers knew where to find it. the safari was an edifying and memorable experience. however, because of some unpleasantness regarding gratuities for attendants, i recommend that safari organizers provide clear guidelines to clients and employees regarding these voluntary remunerations to avoid misunderstandings.

Amazing best value for money....Fantastic itinerary
5/5

Evelyn @ 7 wonders curated an amazing safari experience for us, we got to visit the ngorongoro crater and lake manyara and stayed in the most amazing hotels with views to die for! All this at a price that I think other tour operators can not beat! Plus the are a local Tanzanian run company which is a plus!!! I can not recommend their services enough. They are the best! We even booked with them for zanzibar and so far no disappointments!
