Phenomenal Experience With Guide Shaban
Shaban, our guide, was fantastic, and he did a phenomenal job guiding us through the four parks that we visited. We saw many different animals, including the Big Five and the Ugly Five. We also went on a hot air balloon ride, which was so cool. We witnessed the Great Migration in northern Serengeti as the animals made the precarious river crossing, which is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The accommodations organized were awesome and lived up to our expectations of fun and glamping in the luxury tented camps. I highly recommend Zara Tours.

Climbing Kilimanjaro with Zara Tours Successfully
I recently traveled to Tanzania to attempt summitting Mt Kilimanjaro with Zara Tours. Pickup was timely and Springlands Hotel was clean, with comfortable beds and a delicious breakfast. The climb was challenging but extremely rewarding. The weather was great at this time of year, with clear skies throughout the trek. Our crew gave us exceptional support and truly enhanced the trip with their passion and care. The food by Calisto, our chef, was outstanding; we enjoyed an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables every day. Bonnie and Musa were outstanding as guides, helping us safely navigate challenging moments, like the summit night. I would highly recommend Zara Tours to anyone seeking excellent service on Kilimanjaro.

Exploring Northen Tanzania's Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Zara Tours
We had a wonderful safari tour in Northern Tanzania. We had lots of fun as we explored the beautiful parks. We were assigned guide Moses and he was very knowledgeable about the animals, habitats, and culture, and he freely shared this information with us. He taught us so much about Tanzania and he enriched the experience a lot. We opted for the middle-level comfort accommodations and they were better than we had anticipated. The lodges were great hospitality spots with comfortable rooms, great food, and wonderful staff. Our picks are the Highview Hotel and Ikoma Wild Camp. These two places stood out for excellence. I highly recommend Zara Tanzania.

Incredible Safari Experience to Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, and Ngorongoro
I still can't find the correct words to express how incredible the safari experience to Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, and Ngorongoro Conservation was. A huge vote of thanks to Zara Tours for the excellent planning and execution with finesse and class. We wanted to stay in luxury lodges, and we got that; beautiful properties in magical locations like the Serengeti Safari Lodge, Ngorongoro Safari Lodge, and Highview Hotel, which were spectacular. Our guide Mushi led us to numerous encounters with different wildlife because the parks were so beautiful. There is nothing like being a few yards from a huge elephant or lion; you find the hairs at the nape of the neck standing up spasmodically. I'm really grateful to Zayina, who put everything together and kept in close contact with updates and answers to our many questions. We will definitely return for another visit.

Fun Safari Adventure in Africa
The recently concluded safari was an unforgettable experience. Our driver and tour guide, Manu, was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, patient, and a great conversationalist. Every one of our questions was answered thoroughly. He made our time in the safari vehicle both enjoyable and educational. We were pleased with the choice of accommodations that Zayina proposed for the tour. They were excellent, with some located right inside the national parks. We enjoyed the adventurous feeling of sleeping under canvas in the bush, accompanied by exceptionally good service. I hope we can return for another visit soon.

Phenomenal Safari Trip
My family had a fantastic safari experience in Serengeti, Tarangire, Manyara, and Ngorongoro. The hospitality from our hosts at Zara Tanzania was exceptional throughout the trip. We traveled in a robust 4x4 vehicle, enjoyed luxurious accommodations, and were fortunate to have been accompanied by Musa, a skilled driver and guide. We encountered many wild animals of various species. We had a wonderful time, and it provided great value for the money.
An Unforgettable Adventure
After extensive research on the various operators conducting safaris, we decided to embark on our safari with Zara Tours. We had Joseph as our guide, and he stood out with his enthusiasm for wildlife, his keen ability to spot animals from afar, and his exceptional talent for predicting their behavior. His patience, respect, and constant care made us feel safe and fully engaged in the experience. Joseph transformed our safari into an unforgettable adventure.
