Flexibility of service, great safari, value for money
We received a quote for the safari we selected and for the days we needed. The value us similar to the one we found online. The info provided is accurate, most of the information needed is in the document of the quote. Payment can be done by revolut or bank transfer. Sometimes the exchange of information is slow, either by email or whatsapp, but it arrives. There was a small issue when we paid by bank transfer. The company said it was missing 10 dollars, even tough it was transferred. This was the negative point we found, because I never saw a proof of the amount they received from my bank transfer. Swahili Paradise offered us to stay in their hostel in Arusha by 15 dollars a night with breakfast. It is an ok place, but in a slum, which means to arrive and leave from there only by car. No chance to buy anything around to eat and we hardly had electricity while we were there. Despite we booked the night before and after the safari, we decided to stay in the city center when we returned from the safari, as it is too much remote and we needed dinner. In that case we did not ask for the 15 dollars back. Still, in the day the safari started, we had transport arranged by Swahili Paradise to take us to the meeting point. The safari was amazing. As far as I understand they booked it to another company - Arunga. Our guide was spectacular - Ali or the Serengeti master as he says. He knew everything about Serengeti and Ngorongo. This is the experience I will take with me. But when we book the safari we don't know these details regarding who takes us.

Bad organisation
Sorry but I wasn’t that happy with how the safari went .. Everyday another jeep with another driver and other peoples, the planning changed totally from day 1 without any communication or plan. I slept on other campsites then my planning said, every morning I had to search by myself to my driver and nobody knew anything. Everyday we left very late (also not on the planning). And my driver forgot to pick me up at lake manyara to Serengeti so I’m not that happy

They did a good follow up.
I did not do the safari directly with them. I was redirected to Suricatas. So I cannot say much about Swahili Paradise.

A Brilliant Start to the New Year!
I had an absolute blast on the safari. It was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life!
Steve and Mary picked me up from the airport and it was perfectly organized and smooth sailing. Any hiccups were easily dealt with.
I'm a solo traveler and thought there would be a group on these dates, but the group changed their plans. I paid extra for the private tour and it was worth it!! I had the van to myself and Steve was a lot of fun and added so much to the trip with his good sense of humor and professionalism. It was like going with a good friend who knows where the animals are and a lot about their nature.
I like camping and stayed in the budget camp. I enjoyed it and spent New Year's Eve around the camp fire with other local and international travelers.
Luck was on our side and we saw so many amazing animals. I'm filled with gratitude. It was the perfect way to start the year!

Our experience with Swahili Paradise Tour was next - transfer to the mainland and Zanzibar were ok
- Safarii 2 days share with other people : good experience , the driver was awesome , the food from ngorongoro under any criticism (boxed ), to the tarangirwas ok
- accommodation taken at the grandra view lodge through them the price and very good conditions
- Kilimanjaro tour came with a car robbery of not fit 4 people in it. After I contacted Jimmy, they came in a car. The two waterfalls that had to be seen was just one, the table arranged at a restaurant was good
- Stone town tour was ok but one we discussed initially and we had to pay extra.
-Generally an ok experience

Very good experience with the agency. .A big thank you to guide Philippe for his availability
Very good experience with the agency. We had taken the 4-day safari package. A big thank you to guide Philippe for his availability, his good vibes and his search for animal spots. We were able to do the big five of the animals. incredible photos and magical moments.

Exciting, organized has all facilities and above all booking procedures were the simplest
Well it wouldn't be an exaggeration that we were not going to Tanzania if we haven't found Swahili paradise tours. The communication before was very helpful and simple the salesman was very keen to find us the best deals in time.
We went for 3 days safari with a nice group at Serengeti and Nugorongoro national parks .During the trip all logistics were ready, food was AWESOME . Car was comfortable with enough space for everyone we could even sleep sometimes however the harsh road, most importantly the driver and tour guide were very alert and communicating with other groups to find the big five animals in the great Serengeti national park.
There were always a good space everyday for lunch with clean toilets.
At the end of each day there were that semi safe space in the middle of the park with an indoor space to dine and fire ring where we had a nice chance to meet other groups and I won't even explain how adventurous and exciting was sleeping in the tents while hearing animals eating grass peacefully around you.
Overall I really loved the whole safari experience and Swahili paradise tours made it all easier and fun.

Úžasná starostlivost o své klienty!!
S touto společností jsme absolovovali jednou Safari do Mikumi, jednou Stone Town a Spice tour. Také jsme je využívali na různé transfery místo běžného taxi. Oceňuji velice seriózní přístup a plnění dohodnutých podmínek (časových i finannčních). V případě neočekávanýcb problémů měli k nám až nadstandardní přístup. Auto s řidičem bylo vždy čisté, klimatizované a bezproblémové. Vřele DOPORUČUJEME!!!
