A travel organization that excels in personal attention, excellent service and a perfect georg
What a fantastic experience we had with Zohar African Safari! We chose Nyerere National Park and Ruaha National Park for our safari, and from the first contact until the moment we were back home, everything was arranged perfectly.
The service was truly amazing. Everything was organized down to the last detail, allowing us to simply enjoy this unforgettable trip. What makes Zohar truly special to us is the personal approach. You don't feel like a customer, but truly welcome. The team is available 24/7, and if there is anything you need or you have a question, it is addressed immediately.
An extra thank you to Lilian and her amazing team: Jackie, Rachel, and Meshack. Your dedication, friendliness, and prompt assistance made our trip even better. It was incredibly reassuring to know that someone was always available and thinking along with us.
We look back on this safari with immense pleasure and would recommend Zohar African Safari to everyone without any hesitation. Thank you for this unforgettable experience – hopefully until next time!

Fantastic company that is very detailed and helpful.
Zohar African Safaris delivered a trip of a lifetime. Lillian runs a very detailed company. Solomon and Nathan were fantastic guides. Lunch one day with zebras, and the next lunch was with giraffes. On the safari, we saw all the big five animals and more. The balloon ride was incredible. When our flight got canceled, Lillian let us stay in a bedroom in her business. I highly recommend booking with Zohar African Safari.

An adventure we'll never forget!
We were recommended Zohar African Safaris by colleagues, and they exceeded all our expectations! This safari was absolutely breathtaking and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
From our very first contact until the end of our trip, communication with Zohar was smooth, easy, and professional. Every member of the team was incredibly attentive, and we felt comfortable, well looked after, and safe throughout the entire journey.
We visited Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. The absolute highlight was that, thanks to our exceptional guide Solomon, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five as well as the incredible Mara River crossing.
Solomon was simply outstanding. He was always friendly, calm, and incredibly professional. His knowledge of wildlife and nature was truly impressive. What amazed us most was his ability to spot even the best-hidden animals in the bush while driving. Time and time again, we found ourselves wondering how he had managed to see them at all—his experience and exceptionally trained eye are truly remarkable.
Everything else was equally excellent. The food was delicious, and the lodges were beautiful, comfortable, and carefully selected.
We would also like to highlight the exceptional service provided by Zohar African Safaris. Throughout the safari, we were surprised with thoughtful little gifts to celebrate our honeymoon and my birthday. At the end of our trip, we even received lovely farewell gifts—a truly heartwarming gesture that made our unforgettable journey even more special.
A huge thank you to Solomon and the entire Zohar African Safaris team! If you're looking for a perfectly organized safari with an outstanding guide, exceptional service, and unforgettable wildlife experiences, this is the company to choose. We would happily travel with Zohar African Safaris again and highly recommend them to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania!
Outstanding service, informative guides, animals everywhere…so many lions!
Lilian customized a multi-location safari for us that perfectly blended the exciting Big 5 Serengeti plains and its countless animals with the tranquility of the Rufiji River beauty … we still saw hundreds of animals but we were completely isolated from any other people on our boating, walking and night drives. She coordinated all flights and took care of the details so we could enjoy beautiful Tanzania with no worries. The Guides, Nathan and Solomon (Serengeti) and Ernest (Sand Rivers, Rufiji) were all very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. We felt safe and cared for.

Absolutely perfect from start to finish
If you're wondering which company to choose for your safari in Tanzania, you can stop searching—this is the one!
From our very first contact, everything was handled with exceptional professionalism and genuine care. Planning the trip was incredibly easy thanks to Jackline, who always replied unbelievably fast, answered every question in detail, and was happy to help with anything we needed. Before our trip, we received comprehensive information about what to pack, what to expect, and how to prepare. It made us feel confident and well-prepared before we even arrived in Tanzania.
Every single detail of our safari was perfectly organized. The itinerary flowed seamlessly, all logistics were taken care of, and the accommodations were absolutely perfect for us. Each lodge and camp had its own unique atmosphere, and it was clear that they had been carefully selected to create an unforgettable experience.
The absolute highlight of our trip, however, was our guide, Solomon. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better guide. His knowledge of wildlife, ecosystems, and animal behavior was simply outstanding. Every drive was fascinating because he always had something interesting to share, explaining not only what we were seeing but also why animals behaved the way they did.
What impressed us the most was his incredible ability to spot wildlife. We were constantly amazed when he noticed animals that seemed completely invisible to us—even from a great distance! Thanks to his experience and sharp eye, we had countless unforgettable sightings that we would have almost certainly missed otherwise.
Beyond his expertise, Solomon created such a wonderful atmosphere throughout the trip. He was kind, patient, professional, and had a great sense of humor. We never felt rushed, he always made sure we were comfortable, and it was obvious that he genuinely cared about giving us the best possible safari experience. By the end of the trip, it felt like we were traveling with a friend rather than just a guide.
This safari exceeded every expectation we had. Everything was thoughtfully planned, perfectly executed, and completely stress-free from beginning to end. It's rare to find a company that combines such excellent organization with such warm, personal service.
A huge thank you to the entire team—and especially to Solomon—for making this such an incredible adventure. We would recommend Zohar to anyone without a second thought!

The best choice for an unforgettable authentic personalised experience!
The most amazing safari trip ever
I chose Zohar African Safaris for our honeymoon because they promised a personalised touch and an authentic experience and they definitely delivered! I would highly recommend booking with this world class company.
Responsive and helpful
From the outset, I was impressed with their quick, helpful communication during the booking process. This responsiveness continued throughout the trip, starting with an introductory briefing by the delightful owner, Lilian Kramer. We decided to change one of our activities on the verge of the trip and we were presented with additional options tailored to our desires.
Superb Organisation, Special Touches
Every aspect of the trip was well planned from the length of time and ideal locations in Arusha, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro, the cultural visit to the Masai village on the way back to Arusha, the luxurious accommodations, delicious meals, and special touches. I was delighted with the handwritten notes congratulating us on our marriage, the rose petals adorning the room, the personalised wine and water bottles to name a few. The sundowner was spectacular and the thoughtfulness of framing a picture of this special memory has preserved the moment forever.
Knowledgeable, Personable Guide
Our guide, Nathan, made our trip fun, informative, and memorable. Everyone we interacted with at Zohar was wonderful, but we spent the most time with Nathan and were delighted that he stayed with us throughout the trip as we developed an easy rapport. His humour and wealth of knowledge made him ideal for us, and we were delighted with his dedication to our enjoyment. We particularly enjoyed observing a lion pride set out on a hunt and then finding them successful the next morning, seeing a cheetah take down a gazelle, and seeing 6 rhinos as well as elephant families. He sought out the animals we were most interested in and supplemented his own expertise with written materials. He was a perfect guide and made our trip superb.
Luxurious Accommodations and Easy Transfers
We stayed in the Arusha Coffee Lodge, Serengeti Plains Camp, and Gibbs Farm. Each accommodation has its own special features and they were all wonderfully comfortable. Zohar has partnered with exceptional providers and we were particularly impressed with the tranquility at the Serengeti Plains Camp. Zohar arranged all transfers from the start of the trip to our departure at JRO airport so we did not have to think of anything which allowed us to switch off and connect with nature. I also appreciated the opportunity to have a shower at the Zohar office upon our return to Arusha for our departure flight after a long day.
Know before you go
It is worth wearing layers as the mornings can be cold but the place warms up during the day. The blankets in the jeep are very useful and I used a hair tie to secure mine like a cape. Pack an easily accessible change of clothes so that you can freshen up at the office before getting on your flight.
Best tour ever!
Our safari with Zohar was fantastic! We traveled to Tanzania in February 2026 and everything couldn’t have been better or gone smoother. Lilian and her team created a great itinerary and was very easy to communicate with before, during and after our trip. Our guide, Solomon, had a keen sense of where to find animals and could interpret what was going on by watching other animals. For example, just by looking at the zebras, Solomon knew they were watching something and then we would find that something, like a cheetah or lion. Solomon also made sure we had the best views of everything! The accommodations were fun and comfortable. The meals at the lodges and out on safari were delicious. It was amazing to be eating lunch with giraffes walking by out in the middle of the bush! I could go on and on about our wonderful Zohar safari! We would go back in a heartbeat! Worth every penny!
