I highly recommend Vervet Safari Tours for safaris.
5/5

We are unconditionally impressed by the wonderful planning and execution of our trip by Vervet Safari Tours. We worked closely with Basili and he is a brilliant and wonderful person to work with. He displayed amazing patience as we changes our minds a lot, but in the end we had an itiernary that we were happy with.
This being our first time in Africa we did not know what to expect, but we are so happy with the outcome as it was flawless. The people are friendly and welcomed us everywhere we went, we also felt safe and in good hands.
The parks were awesome. We managed to visit 4 parks starting with Tarangire, the home of huge elephant herds, great baobabs and many animals along the Tarangire river, We also did Lake Manyara in a day and cannnot forget the tree climbing lions, huge baboob troupes and flamingos in the distant. When we came to Serengeti it was the mother of all safari places! We could not get enough of the park as there was something interesting at every turn.
Our safari could not have been that successful without the support from Martin our guide. He was outstaning as a guide and a careful driver too.
I highly recommend Vervet Safari Tours for safaris.

A Beautiful Once In a Lifetime Experience
5/5

We completed a 7 days safari that took us exploring Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro. We are very happy with Basili as her let us customize our trip to include a hot air balloon safari and a visit to the Hadzabe bushmen.

Our safari driver Musa was awesome. He is a professional and knowledgeable person who took our interests first and ensured that we were safe at all times, drove carefully in some not so sane roads, and also respectfully in the parks. He was so passionalte about his job that we fell in love with his way of doing things.
We stayed in some excellent places like Manyara Exclusive Lodge, Serengeti Wild Camp and Arusha Coffee Lodge.
I can sum it all up and say that it was a well planned and executed safari.
Thank you all for an incredible time.

I recommend this tour to anyone looking for adventure!
5/5

The tour with Vervet Safari Tours a great experience overall. Basili was the reason we had such a great trip, he did amazingly well in planning our trip and did an awesome job because it was flawless.
Our guide Momanyi kept things moving effortlessly, taking us to different wildlife scenes and would let us enjoy each stop and take as many photos as we wanted.

Tanzania itself is absolutely magical land filled with breathtaking landscapes, diverse wildlife species, amazing lodges and wonderful people. I recommend this tour to anyone looking for adventure!

Adventure on Safari
5/5

Our recent trip to Tanzania with Vervet Safari Tours was an incredible experience! We had been paired with guide Calistus from the start and he made the trip phenomenal. He was friendly knowldgeable and patient. He made it evident that his purpose was to keep us safe, comfortable and help us enjoy the trip. He was attentive to our sugestions and took them into consideration. We saw lots of different animals in the parks and I observed that Calistus was very respectful towards the animals and everyone. He made sure that the safri vehicle was clean, well stocked with water, refreshments, ensured that the recharging ports were working and generally everything was perfect. He would drive to nice, serene spots and set up for the picnic lunches.
The accommodations were top class and we loved it. The food and the tent rooms were a beautiful experience.
If you are looking for adventure then Tanzania with Vevet Safari Tours is the place to be.

Unforgettable Experience
5/5

Vervet Safari and Tours is an extremely great local operator to travel with in Tanzania and this comes from our actual experience with them last month.
Basili was very helpful when booking the trip and he was responsible for organizing everything for the trip.
We went to the parks with guide Fadhili and the time of our lives. The wildlife, the landscapes and the people made it such a memorable time.
We loved the Serengeti the best, there was the migration and some dreamy sunsets! Staying in tented camps in the middle of the bush was so cool as we could hear the animals noises as the roamed close by, but knowing that we were safe in the confines of the tent and there were guards patrolling the camp.
I highly recommend Vervet Safari and Tours for the unforgettable experience

Wonderful Safari
5/5

Our trip through Tanzania with Vervet Safari Tours was terrific. We visited Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in the 8 days we were on safari.
Planning the trip was easy as basili was professional and quick with the responses. In the end we created an itinerary that had all the activities that we wanted. Their charges were also reasonable.
Our guide Baraka deserves special commendation for being all rounded and so outstanding.
His presence made the trip better as he knew all th routes, about the animals and lots of insight about Tanzania. Everyday with him was a day well spent as he led us to new adventures.
All the lodges and tented camp that we were booked in were fabulous. They made us feel welcome, comfortable and had great food.
If I were to do this again, I would still go with Vervet Safari Tours.

A treat Fit For A King
5/5

Vervet Safari Tours hosted us to a perfect safari experience in Tanzania. We did a mix of wildlife and cultural safari with our guide Baraka and it was everything we wanted and much more.

Baraka was a waking encyclopaedia on the parks, people and Tanzania in general. He had detailed answers for our numerous questions and where he wasnt certain he would let us know. Being around him made the tour intresting and delightful.
The choice of lodge accomodations was worth the extra costs because we were treated like royalty.
I recommend Vervet Safari Tours as the real home of adventure.

Amazing Experience with a Fantastic Guide From a Reliable and Trusted Operator
5/5

We crafted our weeklong safari through Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro together with Basili who was available to guide and answer our numerous questions.
The highlight of our safari was in Serengeti where we experienced the great wildebeest migration with our guide Fadhili. He is the true defintation of a perfect all round guide. Always kind, professional and a walking encyclopedia on anything to do with conservation or nature. Game drives in the other parks were also rewarding with wonderful wildlife encounters. We are really happy with the lodgings that we were booked in along the trip circuit. We have created memories that will be with us for a long time.

Lovely Experience in Tanzania
5/5

We did six days with Vervet Safari Tours in Tanzania and the safari had everything that we had wished for. We were booked in beautiful lodgings like the delightful Manyara Exclusive Lodge on the shores of Lake Manyara and was frequented by zebras, giraffes and lots of antelopes. The other places were also nice and had great staff, amazing food and nice locations.
We did great game drives with our guide Baraka. If someone asks me who is the best guide in Tanzania, I will definitely say Baraka without any hesitation. Every turn brought us wildlife and he was rarely wrong about a trail. He is also a charming guy who made the trip a fun adventure. He was concerned for our safety and comfort at all times and freely shared his vast knowledge about the animals that we encountered. The icing on the cake was to find out that he is an avid birding enthusiast like we are making every view a lovely experience as we shared experiences.
We had an unforgettable experience in Tanzania with Baraka, which all goes back to Basili’s impeccable planning and support when we were booking the trip. He was readily available for us at all times and helped us craft an itinerary that suited us perfectly and the costs are very fair.

Reliable family owned business, offering authentic experience.
5/5

Vervet Safari is a familly owned business and we did sense that Basili and his team really care about their customers. We were provided with a plan of our safari, including the details of our accomodation before we made the final reservation. Everything went smoothly and according to plan, we stayed at amazing luxury camps in Serengeti Basili was a splendid driver and an excellent guide.
The Land Cruiser we had for our safari was rather dated, so some doors did not work, but since it was a private safari we did not mind, in fact it was fun to have an older car. Overall, it was great and we really felt we have made a good choice!
