The best way to Safari in Serengeti is with Musa.
5/5

Musa is well organised, very kind, friendly, trustworthy, in short - amazing and a true gentleman.
He has extensive knowledge about the flora and fauna and that makes the safari so much more interesting.

We decided on a last minute safari trip to Tanzania and did not have a massive 'private safari budget'. The big safari companies were offering us bus and van group tours for the budget. Having a bit of safari experience, my first preference will always be private safaris. So i kept researching and that is when I stumbled upon Roam Serengeti Safari.

We contacted Musa with a long list of demands including staying inside the reserve on a budget, and a private 5-6 day tour.
He actually customised the tour and made it possible, down to the last detail in literally 2 days.

It was actually a too good to be true moment and we could not believe how lucky we got until the trip actually began.

Every trip we take from now on to Tanzania or Kenya for a safari will only be with Musa and Roam Serengeti Safaris. Why look elsewhere when you already have the best.

Roam Serengeti is the best
5/5

Mussa is fantastic, I can't emphasize this point enough. His knowledge of most every aspect of the environments through which his safaris travel is truly vast, but what sets him apart is his attention to the little details which arise, both within and beyond the safari's boundaries. As I planned our holiday, he assisted me in various ways not directly related to our safari; his help was given without hesitation, his advice was always well conceived, and I know our experience was far better for it. Leading up to our arrival, communication was available both via WhatsApp (with a bit of preplanning) and email, and his willingness to open various channels for communication, as well as his straightforward manner, soon dispelled some concerns which had arisen while attempting to correspond with other, less forthright operators. We camped in the Serengeti, which I highly recommend, not least for the addition to our small party of Puce (sp?), a camp chef of rare abilities; his fish curry was perhaps the best dish of our entire time in Tanzania. The cultural activities are recommended, but if you want to experience a true hunt you must be prepared for a full day which begins before daybreak. Later departures will be more of a hike which roam less far from the Hadzabe village (still well worth it, but far less likely to result in much beyond perhaps a bird). I can hardly believe, having begun the long process of sorting photos, what an extraordinary whirlwind of distinctive moments our short time with Mussa offered. Thank you, Mussa, more than I could ever convey.

International adventure!
5/5

Mussa, from day 1, was very responsive and accommodating! He’s responsibly priced and very trust worthy. I told him what type of experience We’d like and he gave us exactly that!! For those considering a safari should choose Roam Serengeti Safaris! As some general information Mussa owns the company, as well as, attends on safari when he can. Know that he may use a different guide other than himself. One of our guides Isaack was so wonderful and fun and very Knowledgeable! Ask for Isaack when you book! Also our chef, Paul was fantastic and entertaining and of course gave us great food! The zucchini soup was my favorite! I went with my friend and we were two females traveling together in Tanzania; Mussa and his company made us feel safe and well taken care of the entire trip! I’ll definitely be back to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro with Mussa, Isaack, and Paul with Roam Serengeti Safaris!

Fantastic, knowledgeable and amazing experience!
5/5

I met Mussa after doing a one week safari in the Serengeti and surrounding area. The experience was truly amazing! But Mussa made it all the better. He knew the ins and outs of the area, was so caring of the environment and the animals and was extremely knowledgeable about the park, the land and everything in between. We could not have asked for a better guide to share this experience. He helped negotiate prices for local goods and visits to the Masai. He was always concerned for our safety and wanted to ensure we had the best experience possible. I will absolutely do another safari with Mussa and Roam Serengeti Safaris!!

Our guide, Mussa was very knowledgeable about all the animals and gave us a great tour!
5/5

Our guide, Mussa welcomed us upon arrival, listened to our requests, and customized the tour for us- he was absolutely wonderful. He is unbelievably knowledgeable about the animals, and he shared that knowledge with us. What struck me most is what a conservationist he is- he has so much respect for the land and the wild things in it. I trusted Mussa from early on and felt very safe with him- he knew how close we could get while staying safe and respecting the animals. This company did not disappoint, and when i go back for safari again with my son, I will use this same company.

an excellent choice with Mussa
5/5

in 2019 with my wife we visited during 1 week the parks of tarangire (2days) serengeti (4days) and ngorongoro (1day) and also the tribes near lake Eyasi. Mussa the owner of Roamserengeti safaris was our driver and guide.this experience was so fantastic if I compare with other african countries visited that I decide to come back with my 2 sons (adults) 1 more time
I contact Mussa again and we planned this trip for 9 days in sept-oct 2023 (3 days Tarangire, 2 days north Serengeti, we entered Serengeti at Klein's gate in the north after visiting lake Natron, 3 days central Serengeti and 1 day Ngorongoro crater
We decide as 4 years ago to sleep in tents in public campsites excepted 1 night in self contained tent near Mara river
With Mussa was a very good cook who prepared 3 meals per day for us and set tents.we took breakfast very early and dinner in the campsite and lunch in a picnic area in the parc, tents were big with good and thick matresses,we could charge batteries in the car.We saw from 6AM to 6 PM so many animals, especially big cats
Mussa with his experience put his car in the best position to take pictures and anytime took the best decision for everything
I defintively recommand Mussa for an experience in the tanzanian Parcs,he drives also very well and adapt himself to what you want to see. We discuss together in english.

A life changing trip!
5/5

Mussa was the guide recommended by other military families in my husband's US Navy unit during his year-long deployment to Djibouti to serve on a task force in 2007. The spouses in the unit would fly to Tanzania to meet their husbands on leave and go on safari. Mussa became the guide that all the military couples wanted to use because he was totally trustworthy, reliable, professional, and extremely knowledgable.

We met Mussa at the Kilimanjaro airport and our adventure began! For a week, he was our personal guide for amazing overnights at Whistling Thorn tented camp, luxury coffee plantations, Taringare,Ngorogoro Crater, and the Serengeti. Mussa was so skilled at finding the best sights and relaying his knowledge of the animals, terrain, and culture.

My husband and I knew we would come back to Tanzania one day, but only if Mussa would be our guide. He is a good man with a beautiful family and we have remained friends. Don't risk not knowing who your guide will be. Hire Mussa and have peace of mind that you will have an amazing trip with honest pricing.

Service was excellent!
5/5

Mussa Rajabu is the owner of this company. I went on Safari with him years ago and can’t imagine going on Safari without him. So when I took my family to see the great migration, Mussa was my first choice! He arranged an 8 day Safari in four parks. The lodges and tented camps were great and his k owl edge of the area was excellent. He even helped us locate a place to get COVID tested in the middle of the Serengeti so we could fly back to the US.

He loves animals and is extremely knowledgeable about the parks and the animals. We traveled with two kids which meant stopping early to enjoy the lodge and the swimming pool. I can’t imagine going on Safari without him. You will not be disappointed.

Perfect 5 day safari with Roam Serengeti
5/5

We had a great 5 day safari in February with Roam Serengeti - I can highly recommend to choose them for your Serengeti adventure!

We found Roam Serengeti by looking at good-rated safari operators on Tripadvisor. Communication with Mussa was great, he responded always within a few hours. Mussa created a nice 5-day tour for us and also recommended to integrate the southern Serengeti due to the Great Migration there at this time of the year. Our schedule was: 1 day Tarangire, 3 days Serengeti, 1 day Ngorongoro crater. He always made sure that all questions or requests from our side were considered. After booking, we made a prepayment and then decided to pay the whole amount upfront to reduce cash while traveling. Worked perfectly.

Our actual guide was Lyimo and we couldn't think of a better one. He was very experienced (10+ years of experience), knows the area and wildlife very well, was a safe driver and made always sure that we have a great time.

Whenever we come back, we would always ask again for Lyimo and for sure book once more with Roam Serengeti.
