Amazing safari, unforgettable experience, trustworthy and ambitious company and good value for money
Our private safari with Rhino Explorer was a very exciting and unforgettable experience. We planned the safari with Daniel, the manager of Rhino Explorer. All our questions were answered immediately. Daniel provided helpful information and assisted our preparations. He really cares for his customers. We (2 adults and one teenager) spent 8 days / 7 night in the Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater area. Everything went to our satisfaction and worked as it was planned (pick up from the airport, hotel accomodations and the safari itself).
With David we had an exellent driver and guide. He has a comprehensive knowledge about fauna and flora and he has very sharp eyes. He always sighted the animals before us, although he was driving the car. We liked his humour and we had good and interesting conversations in the evenings. Also our chef was exellent. He provided us with delicious meals througout the safari.
The landscapes, animals, impressions and memories we will never forget. We saw the big five apart from many other animals. The most exciting highlight was thegreat migration of the wildebeest and zebras. You can get an impression of our experiences by watching the short movie of our son (https://youtu.be/cqBxKS4XWPk).

Great balance between price and quality!
It was amazing! It's really hard to find a good service for a proper amount of money. Rhino Explorers are just young company but they provided really good safari! They were very polite. They provided 2 nights in Arusha as a gratis, the hotel was perfect! Peter - the guide - was polite, neat, calm, responsible, with a good sense of humor and fluent English, he has a lot of knowledges about nature and animals and everything about local life. We did the best for that amount of money! The safari car was really spacious and comfortable. One little comment that lunches could be better. But in common, I will definitely reccomend their team! Daniel - safari manager and Peter - the advanced guide and a professional driver. Thank you guys!

Truly passionate company with excellent service
Daniel, the head of the company and my key contact has been extremely helpful to plan our safari up to each and every detail. His advices and expertise in the subject made the journey perfectly scheduled and excellent service made the experience with the company unforgetable.
This is trustworthy and highly recommended company.
Not only the company has exceeded the expectations but really caring approach made us fall in love with Tanzania and its people. It was the first time in Africa for all the group of 6 people and the expectations were controversial. Daniel and his team treated us as friends rather than a distant customers.
I would also like to say special thanks to our guide and driver Peter. His profound knowledge of wildlife and animals habits allowed us to know so many new things! It is also important to note that his experience helped us to enjoy the road, despite the fact one day it was raining cats and dogs and the road was flooded. We had not got stuck however we've seen many jeeps blocked and stuck in the mud and people had to push the cars out. Peter really knows the roads and the way to drive in any extreme situations and locations.
I am really happy we chose Rhino Explorers and would recommend it to everyone!

Safari camping tour
We are a couple and went on a 5 day safari - 3 nights camping. We were accompanied by four other people in the car + driver and cook (knowing that we spend a lot of time in it, the place was a bit limited). The safari was definitely worth it, we saw all the animals of the "Lion King" as in this movie. We were amazed every day!
Regarding camping, it is very basic and the facilities are rudimentary. The kitchen was not always up to standard (sometimes not enough, the lunches to be absolutely reviewed and the nonchalance of the cook). The guide is obviously more of a driver than an experienced guide but he was very kind and attentive.
Overall we enjoyed Safari for everything we discovered, nights spent in the savannah with the starry sky and beautiful encounters.
Good value for money.

Amazing safari experience with Rhino explorer tours and safaris
1) The communication with tour guide via email and whatsapp was excellent
2) The driver and chef were very friendly. The driver/ guide was very punctual and helpful.
3) We spotted a lot of animals in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our safari was very interesting.
4) The stay at Venice hotel was very good. It is a comfortable hotel with good food for breakfast and dinner. Some of the staff at Venice hotel reception were very unfriendly. We were quite shocked to see them working in the service sector ( reception) but this could be the culture at Tanzania and their reaction towards foreigners. The restaurant staff at the hotel were however very friendly.
5) the 6 seater Toyota Land-cruiser was very comfortable for our safari, with adequate space for our luggage
6) Special mention to Chef who made sure we had healthy vegetarian food. Chef always served the food hot and fresh. The soup and pop-korn he served were very tasty
7) Sleeping bags were provided by the safari organizer
8) Overall a very good safari. I would highly recommend this trip for everyone.

Great Safari experience!
I booked my Safari at Rhino explorers and got a fantastic Safari experience. Pick up from the airport, 2 nights in the hotel and 4 days Safari, I enjoyed a lot! Daniel was warmly welcoming me and organized everything. Because I was in my own, the first day I met my group and we could start the adventure in Serengeti. Our driver and Cook were really kind and made our stay quite comfortable. During nights some of the animals surrounded the tents which was exciting and a complete new experience. The meals were always yummy and water was for free. Our guide told us many things about the animals and parks and we could see a lot. So in total it was a great experience and I would recommend Rhino explorers to my friends.

An Attentive, Customer friendly and Excellent service
The owner of the company really did his best to offer a professional service. The guide, he hired, gave us clear and useful information about the flora and fauna and animals of the national parks. It was a very attentive service beause the engine was stopped while taking photos and was a superb experience to stay quite in nature. These things made a quality difference!
(The company I had before did not pay attention to this at all. We were rushed through the national park..., the ). (it is really annoying when the drivers keep moving the car, or never ask for whether you are ready, and finishe taking photos).
The accommodation was also great, up to the standard. Even when I asked for a better deal for an extra day in a national park I was offered a good deal since it was a low season. I did appreciate this customer friendly attitude. The food was fine, water was provided abundantly.
I felt that this service matched the quality of the West. I warmly recommmend this budget safari to everyone.

Phantastic
It was a great experience, the service of the tour Operator was fabulous, our tour guide Ziggi simply the best: very experienced and super helpful. Our cook Hazid was so nice and provided us with amazing food. The camping was an adventure, the group small and very easy. I would definitely do it anytime again and can only recommend it.
