Amazing safari and tour experience
Choosing Soul of Tanzania was a great decision and that was evident through each part of the journey. The communications were prompt right from day 1 and remained the same right until the end of our journey. The service, hotels, food, and our guide were all exceptional! A large part the credit for our good experience goes to our guide, Amani. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful; he made sure that we got everything we wanted and really exceeded our expectations! Would certainly recommend this company for a visit to Tanzania.

So far with Miguel from Soul of Tanzania
Miguel from 'Soul of Tanzania' took over after we booked with other company, and they diverted us to this company as they had some issues within their own company, we were completely confused and uncertain. Miguel ensured we are taken care of and smoothened the whole process until now.
I am pretty sure our safari is going to be excellent and looking forward as we are assigned with 'Benedict' and hoping to have good unforgettable moments of life time. I will write review once the Safari is done however, I wanted to say that they have height of patience to handle our questions and are not only after getting business done.

Excellent tour operator - my trip became more than I could have ever imagined!
I did an 8 day Kilimanjaro-trekking (we made it to Uhuru peak), 5 day-safari and 4 day stay at Zanzibar, all arranged and overseen by Soul of Tanzania. Most of my contact was with Iris who was always very professional and made great recommendations from the beginning to the end. Zanzibar is a bit generic though (all-inclusive luxury hotels are essentially the same wherever in the world you are), but the safari and the trekking are both memories for life. The accomodation that Soul of Tanzania had picked for us (3 different camps: Pakulala in Ngorongoro, Chaka Chaka Kiota in Serengeti and Nimali in Tarangire) were mindblowing. In particular, Nimali was something not of this world. Luxury in all respects, and at night, just before sunset, large hordes of elephants and buffaloes came to the camp to drink water from the trench that Nimali Camp has made for them there. They were all standing like 5 meters from the pool, in total like 40 elephants and almost the same amount of buffaoes! Wow.

Best safari company and a trip will we never forget!
Soul of Tanzania is the only company to consider if you visit Tanzania! Everything exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Dominic, was excellent! He is extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, environment, and culture of this wonderful country. The company recommended camps were all unique and exceptional. The lunches were amazing with local foods and wine rather than the boxed lunches. People were jealous when they saw our set-up. I can't say enough about our time in Tanzania and am so thankful that we chose Soul of Africa. Request Dominic as your guide for sure!
Amazing experience! 5 Star Guide (Herman), Service, and Trip
From the beginning process of booking the trip all the way to the actual safari, we got treated with VIP service. The team is extremely experienced, professional, and thoughtful. They really pay attention to your needs and customize the trip accordingly.
Special shout-out to your guide Herman. The trip would not have been the same without him. We highly, highly recommend using him for your next safari adventure! He is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable, very friendly, engaging and entertaining, respectful of the animals, and plans the trip around your preferences. He is also amazing at spotting animals- we were able to see all of the Big 5. We honestly could not have asked for anyone better. He truly made our experience even more memorable and we now have a friend for life.
Also, while on the trip we got to enjoy hot lunches, which is unique to only a few of the safari companies. All the equipment provided to us was state-of-the art, and the vehicle we used was extremely comfortable, spacious, and very well maintained. During our safari, we also stayed at a mixture of camps and luxury lodges, all of which Soul booked for us. We very pleased with all of the selections and would definitely stay at them again.
Overall, I highly recommend using Soul of Tanzania for your next vacation. Though they are a relatively new company, the service, accommodations, itinerary, and guides are all 5 star. We could not have asked for a more organized or enjoyable trip, so we will definitely be using them again. The whole team really made the trip as incredible as it was.

Beyond all expectations - couldn't be better!
Soul of Tanzania made our trip unforgettable and beyond all expectations. The highlight was our guide, Ben, who made our journey so unique. His knowledge and his passion about the wildlife is impressive and he has a great personality. He was always looking for the hidden gems and very often managed to show us truly private meetings with the animals and not just the often very crowded seeings, since many places are very filled with cars from other companies. Oh, let's not forget about his coffee!!(Asanti Sana, Kaka!).
A differential is that they provide hot lunch, with local homemade food, wine and juice during the safari all served in metal plates so we made almost no trash in our meals (while all the other companies offer lunch boxes).
The car (a Land Cruiser for 6 people) was new and very well maintained. The organization, from the beginning to the end, was really good. We are so grateful for everything we lived during these 10 day safari journey.

Pius is the best guide ever! Amazing safari
Everything five stars. Amazing lunches in the wild, we had this amazing guide called Pius who could magically feel where the animals would be. Really nice car. All the big5 and even a hunt. Only 4 days safari and we saw everything. Magical experience. Communication was top notch too.
The best park is Serengeti, than Ngorongoro. Tarangire so so but beautiful. Cheers

Brilliant guide, great experience - we never expected to see so much
We recently had a 7-day safari with Soul of Tanzania and it was a really great experience.
Our guide, Herman, was helpful, knowledgeable, and was obviously passionate about his work. He had an amazing talent for spotting animals, and we got to see some rare species that other guides missed.
Everything about the trip - food, accommodation, the vehicle - was of a high quality. The hot lunches were a great feature as well. Communications with the company were easy, and a representative came to meet us in Arusha.
I would definitely recommend Soul of Tanzania, and Herman, to anyone planning a safari in the region.

The hotels were very nice and confortable with views breath taking! Iris thank you very much!
