Excellent!
5/5

We had our tour organised through Soul of Tanzania’s sister company, Spirit of Kenya, but part of our trip included a few days in Tanzania, exploring the Serengeti NP, the Ngorongo Crater and Tarangire NP. Our guide during those days was Walter - we thought he was fabulous, very friendly and knowledgable. Coming off a few long days in Kenya’s Maasai Mara NP, Walter was easygoing and adapted to our requests to have a couple of shorter days so that we could catch up on sleep (and laundry - everything we had was dusty!). Overall, we found the service to be top notch - an easy handover at the border point; comfortable vehicle; and excellent game drives with plenty of animal spotting. We would definitely recommend both Soul of Tanzania and Spirit of Kenya - organising the trip was a breeze, all our accommodations were beautiful, and the overall trip was a joy. Team - thank you / karibou from the bottom of our hearts.

Unforgettable 6 day safari in Tanzania
5/5

Our safari was organized by Hugo and he was absolutely great to work with. My husband and I had the trip of a lifetime; everything went perfectly. We are so happy we went with SoT when booking, and even more thankful to have had an amazing tour guide, Simon! Not only was he knowledgeable and so passionate about his job, he made it such an enjoyable experience for us and we hope to have another trip in the future!

Unforgettable experience
5/5

I would strongly recommend this company !

Two of us took 4days private tour to Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro , and it was wonderful experience.

First of all, our Safari guide Fidelis was so professional and perfect.
Everywhere he found many animals including Big Five and he had excellent knowledge about all kinds of animals. He explained us about their lifestyle, membership of family , relationships with other animals and etc. .all the time.
Also , once he found animals, always he drove us to the best position for watching and taking pictures of them .
He took us to the place where thousands wildebeests all carrying babies. On the other hand , sometimes he showed us the dead bodies that were eaten by carnivores. From those experiences , we could see not only animals but also destiny of nature’s lives closely .
We saw not only his love for animals but also his respect for circle of nature. We think, those his attitude has enriched our safari tour.

Lunch time was also excellent. We enjoyed delicious hot meals with wine in nature each day.

At the end, we say thank you very much for our personal coordinator Filipa at the office.
Since we reached this tour company at first time, we made contact with him constantly and he was always so helpful, answered for each of our questions clearly.
Then, we could start our first time safari tour without any worries. Our tour went so smooth and punctually.

“ Soul of Tanzania “ is the excellent company.

A memorable and fulfilling experience!
5/5

Me and my husband booked via SoT for 4 days safari - Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.

From start to finish, SoT were extremely efficient and professional. We had a easy process throughout and cannot thank the team enough for this memorable experience. Firstly, we would like to say thank you to Sandy for being patient with us over email, making the booking process smooth and convenient and answering all of our questions. The information provided at time of booking was thorough and informative.

We had an amazing time on our Safari - Emmanuel, our guide, was accommodating, hospitable and charismatic which helped with our long drives through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The information he gave us about all the different animals, birds and plants were insightful and interesting. Emmanuel was very patient, being mindful by switching off the engine whilst we were taking photos and allowing us to have as much time we needed wherever we wanted. He was also very optimistic and made so much effort to ensure we could see as much as we could on our few days with him.

Our favourite part of the Safari was the Serengeti - we understand we came at a time where there were not as many animals as the peak season, but still managed to see everything (except the rare leopard!). We managed to see elephants in abundance, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, lions, giraffes, a cheetah and many others!

Thank you to all involved at SoT, you made our 1st wedding anniversary trip one to remember.

Amazing and unforgettable experience
5/5

It was our first safari, not even in our best dreams did we think it could be like this. Our guide Piuc was the one made it possible. He was attentive to all the details to make us have an unforgettable experience. He have seen the big five in the first 24 hours! That was really amazing. We saw almost all the animals really close to the car.
We are very grateful to the company for how we designed the trip together.
And again another mention for our guide who made sure everything was awesome.

The Guide truly makes the Safari
5/5

This was our first Safari, so before arriving we made a list of the top animals we wanted to see. We never for a second dreamed that our guide Omary would find us every single one! He drove all over to find us a leopard in the Serengeti and found us one, hanging out in a tree. At Ngorongoro Crater, he found us not one, not two, but SEVEN rhinos! He was kind, attentive, communicated well and made sure we were happy at every turn. He truly made our Safari great. Having him as our guide was a stroke of luck, and I would not hesitate to request him for our next Safari. I highly recommend Soul of Tanzania and Omary.

Incredible once in a lifetime experience
5/5

We had an amazing experience traveling to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara. The crater is how you describe heaven. Absolutely breathtaking scenery and so much wildlife. Our guide was incredible and definitely made our trip all that it was.

Wonderful Experience, Amazing Guide, Great & Professional Service
5/5

My wife and me just came back from the most wonderful Safari/Honeymoon with the Soul of Tanzania. We spent 9 days in the northern part of Tanzani (Tarangire NP, Manyara Lake NP, Ngorongoro CA, Serengeti NP) and 5 days on the island of Pemba (Zanzibar Archipelago). We couldn't be happier with the services provided by the operator, from all the advice and help when booking our trip (special thanks to Sandy), to the actual Safari part and relaxing stay on the island.

We had a wonderful experience with our guide. Arnold is so knowledgeable about the country's history, its wildlife of course and the multitude of plants and landscapes, and his is so loving, kind, funny, and thoughtful. We literally couldn't have dreamed a better guide and way to get to know the wonders and welcoming nature of the country. We were so fortunate (thanks to his talents!) to see so many animals and birds: from the very rare Oryx, to leopards, rhinoceros, cheetahs, black-backed jackal, serval, full prides of lions, bat-eared foxes, hyenas, crocodiles, elephants and buffalos, the great migration (!), and so many others. Thank you so much Arnold!

We would absolutely recommend the Soul of Tanzania to friends & family, and anyone considering a trip to Tanzania. And if it's possible at all, we would particularly recommend Arnold as a guide (although I'm sure all their staff is wonderful).

Thank you for everything!

5/5

From the start Marta helped us plan the perfect safari for our schedule and expectations, with every detail. When we arrived everything was prepared, everything went smoothly which contributed to a joyful experience. The driver Fidelis had over 17 years of experience and put a lot of effort to make the safari unforgettable. Overall the end we ended up seeing every animal we wanted and more than we ever expected, it was truly awesome and incomparable.

Wonderful safari with the best guide ever
5/5

This is not the first time I have been on safari in Africa, although it is my first time in Tanzania. I turned to your company on the recommendation of my mother, who used your services in 2019, with excellent recommendations and, in fact, did not disappoint at all, I am extremely happy.

I would also like to express my immense satisfaction with the guide that was assigned to us and my travel companions, Mr. Lawrence Mosha. He is an incredible person, incredibly polite, competent, knowledgeable and calm. A man like few others, it was a real pleasure not only to have him as a guide but also to get to know him. Thanks to him, I'm sure our safari was unforgettable, we even get to see all of the big five!!

Thank you very much.

Raha jipe mwenyewe. Asante sana, Lawrence.
