Reviews
Spectacular, unforgettable safari experience with the best tour guide I could have ever asked for.
Our safari with Ombeni was absolutely phenomenal. He is an incredibly attentive guide, he was always making sure we were comfortable and happy. Importantly .. as a driver, he was excellent.. safe, smooth, and respectful of all of our requests, whether that meant staying longer at a location or changing the scheduled departure or return time. Again, his driving was excellent and compared to how I saw some of the other guides driving.. I felt very safe and never worried. We were even able to fall asleep at times when traveling between areas because of how comfortable we were with his driving.
He knew all the spots to take us and had incredibly good vision.. able to see a Rhino in tall grass without binoculars from 500+ feet, or see a lion in a tree, he found it all. He also knows quite literally every species of animal including every bird by name and was able to identify them and teach us fun facts about each.
I also need to mention what really stood out was his warm and genuine personality. And every. Single. Person. seemed to know him! We were constantly seeing people wave and smile at him, and he always returned the gesture, even stopping to offer help to anyone pulled over on the side of the road in need of assistance.
His experience and knowledge on top of his professionalism and kindness made our trip unforgettable. If I could give 20 out of 10 stars, I would. I wholeheartedly recommend Ombeni to anyone planning a safari.

Most inspiring and incredible adventure our family has ever experienced
From our first visit with Ombeni to arrange this incredible experience til the day we sadly left the Kilamanjaro airport to return to Wisconsin , our family of 18 was amazed. It wasn’t just all the animals we saw, it was
Ombeni, his AWESOME
TEAM that toured us and tended to our needs for our Tanzania visit. It was the people of his village, the young people at his school. The people at every lodge and camp were so welcoming. We could go on and on but I’ll just say this entire experience warmed our hearts and was life changing for each of us. It was
a vacation adventure we will fondly remember and talk about always .
