The dream came true
5/5

A fantastic trip all together! I contacted several tour agencies and i choose Hekima Safaris as they were very helpful and flexible when it came to organising the trip. They were very prompt in answering all my questions which was very important as i was planning the trip in a hurry.Our guide Ema was very respectful of the animals and at the same time made alot of effort to find all the animals we wanted to see

Hekima will make sure you'll have an unforgettable experience!
The Jeep for safari is very comfortable . Our guide Emanuel brought us to beautiful places and knew exactly what we wanted to do and see!
If you wish to get the safari of your dreams, I would recommend Hekima to make your dreams come true!

Hop to see you guys again

I recommend the Hekima Safaris agency
5/5

I confirm the positive testimonials of the Hekima Safaris Ltd office that organized a two-week trip to Uganda for us. The main attractions were - Bwindi, National Parks - Queen Elizabeth, Lake Mburo, Murchision and Kibale Forest. Apart from the exotic nature, it was an extraordinary experience to visit the local village and several places "off the beaten track". Due to covid, the plan had to be changed during the stay in Uganda (some attractions were closed by the Ugandan government). However, this did not significantly affect the attractiveness of the trip, because the organization was at the highest level and the organizer quickly rebuilt the places and replaced the previously planned attractions with others. Thus, we did not feel any covid inconveniences. The organizer even planned a coronavirus test for us, which is required by the airlines. She made an appointment with the whole group in advance so as not to waste our time. Extra service - I recommend it!

Brilliant personal service
5/5

I had an amazing safari with Hekima, from the minute I contacted them to ask for quotes until after the safari was over, they were brilliant.
During the planning they answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly, and despite the limitations of tourism in December 2021 they made sure the safari went ahead as planned, even adjusting it to align with my flight times!

The lodges and camps were great, and the guide made huge efforts to get us sightings of all the “Big 5”.

If you are looking for a company that gives 100% to truly personal service, look no further

Mind-blowing safari - it was life time adventure :)
5/5

Me and my wife decided to choose Hekima as our tour operator for safari we had May this year. It was our first trip to Africa so we searched info from a lot of internet tips, blogs and forums to get our idea of what safari should be. Since January when I contacted Hekima I was asking a lot of questions and modifying plan at least couple of times.
I must say they were super patient with everything, professional and fast in providing answers but what is more they were simply friendly.
I never felt ignored and since moment we started to communicate by social media they have for me as much time as I needed.
After arriving Arusha, since day one, we felt extra cared. We choose option of 6 days safari with extra activity around Moshi and extended it with two days in Arusha.
The only thing I can say about sleeping at luxury camping is that... They are truly LUXURY and we have never expected it in such a way.
Our guide (Juma it was) was a blast. He is said to be experienced guide and I truly had this impression that he was faster that other drivers to spot animals and he presented this kind of intuition to spot animals before other jeeps arrived which felt quite cool.
Our cookers did great job, especially that my wife is vegan and in not so many countries it is easy for her to find food satisfactory. Marcus - the main chief - went beyond our expectations.
I can say a good word as well about Team in Hekima House - it was more local experience, after safari, gave us some taste of what 'real Tanzania is' as we were happy to join with other hostel guests for local party.
I m still highly impressed of all the work put in order to creat this all for us. For sure, I wish we can be back one day to Tanzania (thinking about mountain now) and with full responsibility I can recommend Hekima as company to organize such holiday for anybody - it is totally worthy to experience!

Everything we wanted
5/5

Our guide, Ezekiel, was amazing and he catered to exactly what we wanted. When we said we wanted red bananas, he stopped and got some that day. He also brought us to a tribal village to visit when we said it sounded interesting. When we said we wanted to go shopping at a local place, he brought us to a great one. He is also one of the best guides around, and knew where all of the animals were hiding/ sleeping. Other guides looked up to him and asked him for help when their trucks broke down and asked where the elusive jaguars were. We were so lucky to have him!

Great service! Good places to stay, safe and friendly for a solo traveler
5/5

Jackson and Eli are great. They gave me a good price for my safari tour that combined Tanzania and Kenya. I was a solo traveler but Eli joined me in my trip to Kenya to make sure I was staying in nice places. He was great companion. We visited many places and I always felt safe and in a well-organized tour. In Tanzania, Jackson made his best to accommodate to my needs under some unexpected events happening. He made sure I was happy with my itinerary and with service.

GREAT!
5/5

We did a 15 days private safari starting from Kilimanjaro Aiport, Tanzania going through Tanzanian and Kenya National parks and ending up our trip at Jomo Kenyatta International aiport in Nairobi. A company guide Emanuel came all the way from Arusha to greet us at the airport. We went to Tarangire ,Lake Manyara ,Ngorongoro and Serengeti, than we flew from Soronera central Serengeti to Arusha aiport . We had few Days rest with cultural program and City tour. Everything was organized by Hekima team and we had really Great local experience. We also did short trek around mount Kilimanjaro and visit local Chaga tribe . Then we crossed border to Kenya to Amboseli Park. Hotels choice and arrangement was excellent. Our guide in Tanzania was Emmanuel who was very knowledgeable and friendly. The guide for Kenya was Ken who we heared is new guide for Hekima, he is young, but is very passionate and did great job for us. All the staff is friendly and gives The holiday a personal touch. Overall the prices are good and the service is super PROFESSIONAL and friendly. As well, we were warned before that companies in East Africa sell clients between each other (This was different story with Hekima) all The service was operated by Hekima 100 % that i belive was Great advantage as they stayed in Touch with us and directly made sure that everything was Perfect :)
