Excellent Tour provider, great guide, we always felt safe and had such a good time
5/5

We got this tour provider by recommendation and went for 4 days game drive safari. Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. The German speaking guide Freddy was excellent, had a great knowledge about Tanzania, the animals, the history, etc. - just amazing. Most relevant is to have a safe driver and a well maintained car, we saw so many others having trouble, but our guide took really care, cleaned and checked the car every day.
Again, excellent experience with fantastic view on amazing animals, we were so close to them and could observe them perfectly. Big thank you to Francesco for the organisation and a 100% recommendation from us for Lappet Faced Safari!!

Noel was an expert tour guide and everyone should do an African safari at least once.
5/5

The entire African safari was amazing. Everything we saw repeatedly pointed us back to recognizing God's glory and the wonder of his creation. Noel was so knowledgeable and had a book with each of the animal's name and photos to help us understand what we were seeing. He was able to find animals in hard to find places and we were able to see all of the Big Five. I am a vegetarian and all of the lodges were able to accommodate my diet, which was great. I highly recommend that everyone do an African safari at least once in their lifetime. Lappet Faced Safaris is an excellent company to meet all of your needs on an African safari.

Very Expert in Safari
5/5

Lappet Faced Safari left a very good impression on me about Safari. When discussing the itinerary, Francisco responded very promptly and provided a lot of useful suggestions; during the entire trip, there were no extra costs or extra services. During this trip, we are very grateful to our guide Mike, who worked tirelessly to help us find animals and introduced various animal knowledge, making us have a very enjoyable trip; we also booked a ride from Arusha to Kilimanjaro For the airport shuttle bus, thank you to Noel for his superb driving skills; and thank you to Francisco for helping us book a fruit lunchbox in advance so that we did not go hungry. We were very satisfied with this trip.

Unforgettable Safari
5/5

Completed safari in September 2019 with 2 other females. Our guide Amani was so nice & knowledgeable. We called him the animal whisperer because we’d say we wanted to see an animal & the next thing we’d know we’d be looking at one or more! We saw everything we wanted too, great food, & loved our Serengeti camp stay! We also enjoyed learned about the Maasai culture & visiting a village. The owner Francisco also got us 2 bottles of wine & was very responsive & cared about the quality of our stay!
I loved everything about Tanzania! I would definitely safari again with Lappet Faced Safaris

Great safari with lappet faced safari
5/5

We did an 8 day safari with lappet faced safari that was excellent. We went to 5 national parks where we saw an amazing array of wildlife including about 10 lions, 5 cheetahs, a leopard, thousands of gazelles, antelope, zebras, wildebeest, 100s of elephants and hippos, lots of giraffes and countless birds. Gabriel was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and would stop whenever we asked him to but we really didn't need to ask as he was in constant contact with other guides in the area and would shoot off to wherever the wildlife was.The places we stayed varied quite a bit but that was dependent on what we decided. You can really spend whatever you want as you decide your level of stay.I highly recommend lappet faced safari as they were very responsive at every level

A vacation like no other, excellent organization and wonderful tour guide.
5/5

Beautiful safari, saw the big 5 and many others. Accomodations were excellent. Our tour guide Godbless was a wealth of information. Being on a private safari gave us some flexibility we really enjoyed. We always had time to stop and take as much time as we wanted to take pictures . Everything was planned out well and our tour went smoothly from start to finish.

Amazing! Experience of a lifetime
5/5

Our safari adventure was truly amazing. We got into the heart of spectacular Tanzania: Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara. The animals were all around us. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery and came home with fabulous memories and photographs. Our guide was knowledgeable and accommodating. He spotted animals across the wild plains and anticipated our every need. It could not have been a better week!

Francisco, our tour operator, was always very responsive to any communication that was sent over the
5/5

There were absolutely no surprises on this trip. Everything went very smoothly as planned. From the moment we arrived in Tanzania and until we boarded our plane to return home, our tour operator was readily available and ensured we were well care for. Even the first night, our tour operator made sure that the hotel would have a late dinner for us as our flight didn't arrive until 10:00 p.m. Our accommodations we're very comfortable and equaled the quality as presented in a brochure. The lodges had beautiful grounds, roomy accommodations and wonderful meals.
Our guide was wonderful and very responsive to our needs. Additionally, it was important to him that we had a great experience. I loved the fact that he always prepared us for the next day's game plan. The game drives were wonderful; but in addition, loved the cultural aspect as well. Meeting the Maasai, Hadzabe and the Datoga tribes was one of the major highlights of the trip. Especially, the opportunity to go hunting with the Hadzabe tribe. It is something not to be missed.
As for the value of this trip, I must say it was very reasonably priced. I really felt we got our money's worth.
I usually read tour reviews of other travelers but typically do not write any myself. However, I chose to this time because I was very pleased with the communication planning the trip as well as the trip itself....got to see the BIG 5!!!

Wonderful Trip
5/5

I just got back from our trip last week and cannot say enough about the wonderful experience we had. Francisco planned a wonderful trip and our guide Godbless was a wealth of information. I will keep singing their praises to every traveler I meet. A trip to Tanzania makes my other travel pale in comparison. Thank you Lappet Faced Safaris for a great adventure
