It was a wonderful series of events with our excellent guide Basil. Serengeti is one of the most beautiful places on the world. I definitely recommend Basil for the visitors, he is resourcefully, very positive and kind. He is everything we were looking for.

Vervet Safaris Marvelous Adventure Kilimanjaro trek 8days Lemosho route
5/5

My experience with Vervet Safaris with their hikers for 7 day Kilimanjaro trek (Lemosho route) and a 8 days safari in Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Team which escorted us on Kilimanjaro was so amazing. They were very professional and good at their job. Porters have been incredibly fast at carrying and packing. The cook managed to make a different and tasty meal every day in those conditions. With their support I managed to get to the top with our guide toward summit and porters. They were very cheerful all the way while I was getting tired near the top. My mother was also climbing and she reached the top though she had lots of health complications. With their help it was "piece of cake". I'm very happy that I had such a great company with during this unique experience.

After Kilimanjaro we continued our trip with a safari. We got the best guide Basil who managed to locate and show us all animals you expect to see and more. He is very smart and I learned a lot of interesting information from him. My favorite part of the trip was visiting Serengeti and overnight stay at a very safe camp and we were attended with great care.

Overall, this trip was unforgettable and i would recommend Vervet Safaris without hesitation

Great experience in Tanzania
5/5

We had a great month in Tanzania with my GF thanks to Vervet Safari. Basili, the onwer, offered us a great trip planification and everything worked perfectly. We started with a 5 days trip in Kilimanjaro, then a 12 days Tour in Tanzania (Arusha, Tarangire, Manyara, Lake Natron, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Eyasi) and a week in Zanzibar. Our Kilimanjaro team was great with Fredy and Fridays like guids and our tour with Yohana and David across the parks was just excellent. Asante Sana Vervet!

Choose a local outfit - go with Vervet Safari Tours
5/5

Local outfit based in Arusha with a professional and knowledgeable staff.
My wife and I just completed an 8-day safari with them that was 1 .5 years in the making due to covid-19. During that time I was in contact with the owner Basili as we rescheduled the trip 3 times and shuffled our dates, accommodations and activities.
All our communication was either by email or whatsapp and Basili was prompt to respond to my questions and queries.
A guide can make or break a safari, Vervet Safrari Tours made it a great safari for us by providing Barazza a very competent and knowledgeable guide. Heck this guy is a naturalist, knowledgeable in plants, birds, animal species and behaviors. He was very good at spotting wildlife that we can't even see with binoculars. Barazza was an awesome guide who take care of our safety and well-being during the whole trip. Many thanks to Vervet Safari for an unforgettable experience.

Safari Adventure
5/5

My 3 friends and I went on a 4-days safari with Basili the owner of Vervet Safari Tours a very professional local tour operator with many years’ experience of planning and executing safaris in Tanzania. We had selected Vervet Safari from the other companies because they had great reviews and Basili was quick to understand what we wanted and also gave us the most reasonable price.
We saw a wide array of animals ranging from; lions, elephants, buffaloes, a leopard, cheetahs, hyenas and zebras.
We are very happy to have been hosted and are sending all our friends your way.

Superb Trip to Tanzania
5/5

We are very impressed by the Vervet Safari Tours team for organizing a relaxed luxurious trip filled with exciting adventurous experiences in Tanzania’s Serengeti, Ngorngoro and Lake Manyara National Parks. There was so much to see in the 6 days of tour, every day out incredible guide Basili took us to a different location for African jungle excitement.
We were booked at 4 different hotels, 3 inside the parks and 1 in Arusha. We loved them all because they try very hard to make us happy and server us well.
They sanitize the rooms, handles and gave us masks to wear. We were the only ones on the vehicle.
We hope to come back sometime in the future.

Splendid 9 Days Family Vacation
5/5

My family started our Tanzania trip with Vervet Tours from our hotel in Arusha with Melkior as our guide. We had an extremely wonderful time: 1 day in Lake Manyara where we did the board walkway in the morning and nice game drive in the afternoon, 5 days exploring different parts of Serengeti National Park, game drives, hippos pool and balloon safari, 2 days in Ngorongoro Conservation Area, we did the famous Ngorongoro crater visit, Maasai boma visit and local elementary school.
We saw lots of animals including all the big 5, birds, and breathtaking scenery. Of special mention are the beautiful and friendly people we met in Tanzania who made our trip worthwhile.
We would love to do another visit soon.

So exciting that 10 days were not enough
5/5

Correspondence with Basili the director of Vervet Tours was smooth and informative. He answered our numerous questions and together we created an awesome itinerary 1 month before our trip.
Every aspect of our trip was well planned. James our guide was exceptional during the trip, always on time in the Toyota 4x4 Cruiser well cleaned ready for the day’s adventure. He knew where to go for great wildlife encounters, we saw more animals took better photos than we expected. Our accommodations were something else, very relaxing, tasty meals in most of the establishments and courteous staff.
My wife and I agree that the 10 days in Tanzania passed very fast. We have already started making plans for another trip.
Asante sana. We hope to see you soon
