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!

Living the dream in Tanzania
5/5

Basili and his team did a fantastic job showing us the wonders of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Zanzibar. His ability to find animals in the bush is fantastic, there was never a dull moment. The hotels, lodges, and tent camps he booked us with were always very nice. When things didn't go as planned, Basili and his team worked hard to quickly put things back on track. Tanzania is a beautiful place to experience the nature and people of Africa.

Professional agency, wonderful people and unforgettable experience
5/5

We did a 6 days safari with Vervet Safari Tours and it was just perfect. Everything was well organized and professional. The staff is friendly and helpful. Our guide was amazing. We learned a lot of things about the animals, the nature, the Massaï and African cultures. The lodges were very nice and the food really good. The people in the lodges were also very kind and attentive. The car was spacious and well equipped. We had a great experience that we will never forget. We thanks a lot Basili, Yohana and their partners for this wonderful time. We highly recommend this agency and we wish them all the best. Tunapenda sana Vervet Safari Tours

Best experience ever!
5/5

Vervet Safari is a professional organization with a lot of knowhow. The communication with Basili was very clear. We had a year delay because of COVID-19. No problem and change plans was OK for them. We booked a 8-day safari trip to Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater. Our driver Moses was waiting at the airport and give us a warm welcome. Moses knows a lot about all the animals, landscapes and the country. Our chef Edwin makes good food and after a long gamedrive he welcomes you with a smile. Our best memory? The leopard with his meat in a tree. Amazing!
Thanks for everything and see you next time guys.

Vervet Safari : Checked the list of every African experience we could have asked to see and do!
5/5

Vervet customized our visit to see all the sights we wanted and added other experiences to make Africa feel as welcoming as coming home. We always had wonderful accommodations, food, transportation and knowledgeable guides. The challenges of traveling during COVID testing requirements were handled efficiently- no small feat. We highly recommend Vervet.

safari with Vervet safari is Superb

My wife and I were provided a guide by Vervet Safaris Safaris for our week-long safari and couldn't be happier with the service from beginning to end. Everything on our trip was wonderful. Our guide, Basil, was friendly, hospitable, knowledgeable, and accommodating. His 12 years…

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.
