We had an amazing trip..it was fantastic
Our safari experience with Hekima Safaris in Kenya and Tanzania was truly outstanding. From the very beginning, the team showed excellent communication we received all the details on time, and everything was explained clearly, which gave us great confidence in our journey.
Throughout the trip, all the accommodations we booked were exactly as promised, which made the experience smooth and worry-free. Every lodge and camp met the expected standard, and the organization was excellent from start to finish.
The safari itself was incredible well-planned, full of adventure, and guided with professionalism and care. The wildlife encounters in Kenya and the breathtaking landscapes of Tanzania made it a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
We highly recommend Hekima Safaris for anyone planning a safari in East Africa. Their professionalism, clear communication, and dedication to delivering exactly what they promise make them the perfect choice.

Mind-blowing 🎉
Our 4-day safari with Hekima Safaris was an amazing adventure from start to finish. The team was professional, welcoming, and made us feel at home right away. Each day brought something new—from spotting the Big Five to enjoying breathtaking landscapes in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro.
The accommodations were comfortable, and spending a night in the middle of the savannah was an experience we’ll never forget. The meals were delicious, and everything was well organized, so we could just relax and enjoy every moment.
We are so grateful to Hekima Safaris for making our trip so special. We will cherish these memories forever and can’t wait to recommend them to friends and family!

Excellent indeed!
From the very first night, our experience with Hekima Safaris was unforgettable. We arrived and stayed overnight at Hekima House, which is truly amazing a beautiful home with a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel comfortable and relaxed right away.
We then enjoyed a 7-day safari adventure, guided by Aman and accompanied by Mopoo. Together, they made the perfect team: Aman drove with great skill and shared his knowledge, while Mopoo had a sharp eye for spotting animals. It was such a good balance, and they worked seamlessly to give us the best experience possible.
Throughout the safari, they did everything to make sure we were happy, safe, and able to see the wildlife in the best way. Sometimes while Aman focused on driving, Mopoo would be looking around carefully to spot the animals and it always paid off!
We truly felt taken care of, and we cannot recommend Hekima Safaris enough for anyone wanting a professional, friendly, and unforgettable safari in Tanzania and Kenya

Woooww, I couldnt imagine that
100% valuable.
Our driver/ guide is really the best you can have , for sure, he is more invested than any other driver in the parc, whenever he heard about an animal, he ran to find it, what a hunter !
Besides, our cooker (Barack) was equally invested, we were one of the rare to have a complete meal every time while the others had sandwiches.
The safari was organised according to our willing , we had a discount , and the flights included.
That was so perfect, I recommend it.

Amazing Ngorogoro experience
We had an amazing experience visiting ngorongoro with Hekima Safaris. Experienced guide who could tell a lot about the nature and animals. Next to this, we could sleep in their guest house and they even have a great cook.

Once Upon In Time In Tanzania
During the final week of September 2025, my wife and I joined my good friend’s family for the 9-day Migration River Crossing.
From the moment we signed up Safiness, our Hekima contact, was extremely helpful in providing all the information needed to prepare for our first adventure in the African continent. As a result, we felt assured, our excitement and confidence boosted as we waited for September to arrive.
The trip was wonderful and enjoyable: the Airbnb accommodation for Hekima Safari was really great, and we truly enjoyed meeting the people around their home and having drinks with them. It was safe, the guides (Faraki and Amani) were engaging as well as knowledgeable, and be prepared for some bumpy driving across the parks. Hekima put in considerable efforts to make it memorable for all of us. The mandatory briefing session at the end of each day was a great stress-reliever as it provided a dialogue regarding concerns and clarifications.
From the sprawling limestone-green craggy walls of Ngorongoro to the sheer vastness of Serengeti Park and eye-popping Mt. Kilimanjaro, the sights were breathtaking and stay with you forever. The highlight has to be the wildebeest crossings at the Mara River, often described as one of the greatest natural spectacles.For this spectacle, you just have to be there to take it all in with your senses, as no documentary or pictures can quite capture the tension, drama, and scale of the crossings.
However, for me, the Kodak moment was seeing the mighty hippos and pinkish flamingoes chilling in a breezy lake somewhere in the Ngorongoro crater zone. Under the gorgeous sunshine, the images were simply dazzling.
Day 6 was when I carelessly left my tablet on my bed at the lodge, and I wasn’t aware of it until Amani alerted me. Safiness said that they’d try to bring it to me at the airport just before departure and they did. They didn’t have to go all the way for a mistake I made, but they did. It demonstrates the integrity and commitment of Hekima to their clients, and that is deeply appreciated.
If you’re looking for magic in the animal kingdom, it doesn’t get better than this. Well-supported and organized, the trip was filled with “wow” moments as we observed birds and animals (Big 5, blue monkeys, cheetahs, hyenas, spiderman lizard, etc.) in their natural setting: living and playing side by side, resting, limping, TLC with their cubs, having a lonely walk, grazing, being aroused, crossing a dusty road, fighting, being chased, etc. A highly recommended program.

Epic Kilimanjaro & Safari Adventure Beyond Perfect!
words can't fully capture this once-in-a-lifetime journey with Hekima Safaris! From signing up to stepping off the mountain and into the safari, every single moment was flawless.
The Climb: Brutal but breathtaking. Our guides were absolute legends professional, encouraging, and laser-focused on safety. They pushed us just enough to conquer Uhuru Peak without ever feeling reckless. Standing on Africa's rooftop at sunrise? Pure magic. I'll never forget that overwhelming pride.
The Safari: Hands down the highlight! We saw the Big Five (multiple times!) plus cheetahs, giraffes, and elephant herds up close. The guides knew exactly where to find the action it felt like starring in a National Geographic special. The lodges? Stunning views, gourmet food, and total luxury after the trek.
The Team: mopoo and his crew handled everything logistics, gear, meals, transfers. Zero stress, just pure adventure. You can feel their passion in every detail.
If you're debating this combo, book it now. Perfect blend of challenge, wildlife, and relaxation. I'd do it again in a heartbeat

Beautiful memories
From start to finish, our tour with Hekima Safaris was organized incredibly well. We were welcomed on arrival in Arusha by Mopoo, who took us to our first hotel, and from that moment on we were in excellent hands.
Throughout our safari, Jackson looked after us with genuine care. The whole experience was magical — he made sure we were always comfortable and helped us tick off everything on our bucket list, including the Big Five. One thing we truly appreciated was the warm lunches every day. While many other groups were eating lunch boxes, we enjoyed delicious hot meals with pasta or rice after a long morning out in the parks. It made the experience feel so much more personal and premium.
Communication during the planning stage was perfect, and even once we reached Zanzibar, the Hekima office made sure all our transfers were arranged smoothly. With so many tour companies to choose from, we are genuinely happy that we chose Hekima Safaris. They were ethical, professional, and our guide was extremely knowledgeable.
We couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience. Highly recommended!

Our guide faraj was truly exceptional patient, knowledgeable, and always making sure we enjoyed every moment. Mopoo, who also accompanied us, was so friendly and attentive, making the trip even more enjoyable.
This was an experience of a lifetime, and I am deeply grateful.
