Tanzania Safari with David and Lomo - An Unforgettable Experience!
5/5

My wife and I recently had the privilege of experiencing a private safari in Tanzania with David as our guide and driver, booked through the fantastic Lomo travel agency. From the very beginning, David and Lomo exceeded our expectations in every way.

Wildlife Expertise:
David's knowledge of Tanzanian wildlife was truly impressive. He was able to identify every animal we saw, from the majestic lions to the elusive shy creatures. He not only named them but also shared fascinating details about their behavior and habitat, making the entire experience incredibly educational.

Master of the Terrain:
David's driving skills were exceptional. He navigated the challenging terrain with ease and always prioritized our safety and comfort. He even went above and beyond by assisting other drivers who got stuck in muddy patches - a true testament to his helpful nature and experience.

Exceptional Service:
David's attentiveness and dedication to our enjoyment were unmatched. He was always available to answer our questions, ensured we had the best possible views for photos, and even went the extra mile to secure the best tables at picnic locations, setting them up for us to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Animal Spotting Genius:
David's ability to spot animals, even those well-camouflaged or far away on the vast plains, was uncanny. He expertly positioned the jeep to give us the best possible views, allowing us to capture stunning photos and create unforgettable memories.

Flexible and Accommodating:
While we had a well-planned itinerary, David was more than happy to accommodate our spontaneous request to visit a Masaai tribe. He seamlessly integrated this visit into our day without affecting our schedule, making the experience even more enriching.

Highly Recommended Guide and Travel Agency:
This private safari with David was an absolute highlight of our trip to Tanzania. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience and would highly recommend David to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely kind guide.

Five stars out of five for David!

A big thumbs up to Lomo as well! Their planning for the trip was perfect. They also booked the perfect spot in Zanzibar for the last 4 days of our trip to relax at the beach. Hellen from Lomo was incredibly prompt and helpful when we asked for an unplanned Stonetown tour. She hooked us up with a fantastic local Zanzibar guide for a half-day trip.

We would absolutely recommend both David and Lomo for an unforgettable Tanzanian adventure!

Responsive, efficient, friendly and very knowledgeable
5/5

We were looking specifically for an operator who was Tanzanian, and knowledgeable. We have spent a lot of time in the bush in Southern Africa, so knew what we were looking for.
From the very first email, Erasto, Hellen and the team were amazingly responsive, and took a lot of time to tailor their responses to our specific requests.
We told them we were interested in birds and photography. They allocated Adam to us as our guide/driver. Adam is probably the most knowledgeable bird guide we have come across in our travels, and has a keen interest in photography (and a camera to match!). A perfect fit for what we were looking for.
We can only give Lomo the highest praise - they know the business, they are extremely responsive and will tailor your safari to what you specify your interests are.

No Need to Look Further Just Call Lomo
5/5

I am a biologist with a Ph.D. in conservation biology. So, I know a few things about our ecosystems and wildlife. I was blown away by our guide (Adam) and his knowledge. He relayed many interesting facts to our group and truly understands many of the intricacies between the wildlife and their environment. This greatly increased the value of our expedition. We weren't just checking animals off our list, we were fully engaged. Adam and the entire LOMO team took great care of us. From refreshments upon arrival at the airport, onto safari, and taking us back to the airport, we were never wanting for anything more. We were completely taken care of. The trip was a once in a lifetime experience. But now I'm ready to do it again. When I do, it will be with LOMO. There are other choices for sure. But from what I observed while on safari, LOMO stood out. They work with you on options, they communicate well, and they provide an exceptional experience.

David and Isidore: a top team !
5/5

5 day safari in Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro for our 6 children, my husband and myself. Great welcome at the airport, David and Isodore were great guides, spoke French very well. They constantly adapt, set the table at lunch, are very attentive and are efficient! We changed lodges mid-safari, they adapted without difficulty. David has a great knowledge of the flora and fauna, anticipates a lot of questions and everything is always “cool”

No FOMO with LOMO. You guys are the best. I will always chose you guys.
5/5

I got an amazing opportunity to do a field school at AKU with other students through SFU and safaris were part of the field school. It was the most wonderful experience of my life which went beyond my expectations with LOMO. They are the best people. They took care of everything. The food was always amazing. All the safaris were an awe-inspiring journey that surpassed all expectations. It was my first safari ever. I felt safe during my walking safari at Arusha National Park. Our driver Alan answered all our questions. From the moment we saw Leopard in Tarangire NP, it was amazing. Leopard is rarely seen but it became possible because of LOMO. Visiting Ngorongoro conservation area, was a dream. I saw all kinds of wildlife. Watching Lioness with her four cubs was a perfect ending. I felt like I was in a family. They made sure all our needs were met. From food to charging phones. Everyone was friendly and funny. Witnessing Martial Eagle with the prey was just amazing at the Lake Manyara NP. At the end of the safari, we got to see the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes, which made me realize that life can be lived simply and there are people out there who live in harmony with nature and wildlife. Each day brought new surprises with majestic giraffes, elusive leopards, and powerful lions making every moment alive. The warm hospitality of the LOMO staff and their commitment to their cause for supporting less privileged added a meaningful layer to our journey. I would love to revisit Tanzania and go on safaris with LOMO and I recommend LOMO to everyone. They are the best. I appreciate Erasto, Alan,David, Adam and Abi for taking care of us.

Informative, friendly and a pleasure to be with.
5/5

I went on Safari with Lomo with a group of students from SFU University on a field school. We had multiple experiences which included Arusha National Park, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Lake Manyara National Park, and visited the Hadzabe (Hadza) as well as the Datoga Indigenous Communities. Our guides Alan, David, Adam, Abi and Erasto were all amazing in their own ways! But in common, they were all extremely informative and made the experience so enjoyable! We started off the trip at Arusha National Park which was supposed to be one of the less magnificent parks yet still left me in awe with a gorgeous walking safari and and an exhilarating game drive where we saw giraffe's, monkey's, water buffalo's, and a white baboon! Then in Tarangire we saw so many elephants! Along with many types of impala's, birds, a lot of zebra's and a Leopard! Ngorongoro Conservation Area was one of the most amazing places I have ever seen. We saw almost every animal including 8 lions and their cubs who were quite close to the car. If you are a bird lover there was such a large variety at Ngorongoro. In Lake Manyara we weren't expecting to see too much aside from the beautiful trees but we still saw so many birds including a Martial Eagle with his prey along with tons of Elephants extremely close to the car having mud baths! Lastly the Hadzabe and Datoga communities gave such a rich cultural experience understanding how these communities function today which is extremely similar to the way they lived in the past. On top of everything; the food provided was amazing, the cars were luxurious with power and wifi, and the accommodation was fantastic. Thank you Lomo for a life changing trip!

Lomo is the BEST! This team is seriously amazing, I had the time of my life with Erasto and David taking great care of our group on our 4 day safari experience. The care and attention to detail was some of the best hospitality I have experienced. At every turn my needs were taken care of, and they were checking in on us to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The guides are all knowledgeable and educated on the local ecology; I was asking lots of questions about the animals and was given a thoughtful answer every time. I can't wait to come back.... maybe a honeymoon?! If you are considering Lomo, you should definitely go for them.

Once In A Lifetime Experience with LOMO Safari Great People Working For A Great Cause
5/5

I’ve had the pleasure to spend my time in Arusha with LOMO Tanzania Safari. In just 4 days they have brought me to sights that I’ve only seen on National Geographic, and the experience is still not over! They planned our trips to Arusha NP, Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro NP, Lake Manyrara NP and Lake Eyasi with lunch accommodation, beverages and more. Coming from California, Tanzania is a long way from home but I truly feel like family with the LOMO crew. It’s one thing to go on a safari and witness the awes of the natural world but it’s another thing to do it with people that you feel comfortable and connected to. Without LOMO I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to see leopards, giraffes, lions, hyenas, hippos, rhinos, buffaloes, wildebeest, warthogs, baboons, monkeys, elephants, vulture, eagles, lizards and more birds that I could possibly count. This has truly been a once in a lifetime experience and I owe a lot of it to LOMO! Special shout-out to Erasto, Allen and Abby!!!
