Awesome safari experience
We did a safari after climbing Kilimanjaro and our experience with Lappet Faced Safaris was just outstanding in every way. The Melia lodge we stayed in were wonderful and in beautiful/unique settings. Our guide, Gabriel was terrific and had amazing vision to spot animals very far away. . . then expertly positioned our vehicle to see them up close!

Phenomenal Safari Experience
Lappet faced safari provided an excellent safari for the two of us. It was very well planned. Communication with Francisco was excellent. He was very accommodating in terms of arranging payment, which I was worried about due to Covid. The company is very reliable and excellent. The driver Gabriel was truly exceptional, he was always in the right place and time to see all the animals. We saw cheetahs, a black rhino, lions, a leopard, giraffes, hippos including baby hippos and many more. We also saw a family of around 70 elephants including baby elephants and we were the only car surrounded by all the elephants crossing the road! Gabriel also arranged an excellent plan to see sunrise and breakfast with a view in Serengeti Np. Gabriel is an excellent driver, clearly very experienced, kind and easy going. Although we visited several parks which were far away, Gabriel is a very reliable and good driver who got us places quickly and safely. We previously did a safari in Kenya, however, the one in Tanzania with Lappet Faced Safaris was much better.

Unforgettable Experience
This lifetime trip was my graduation gift from my mother and Lappet Faced Safaris facilitated our Safari experience between Kenya and Tanzania to make our trip memorable and unforgettable. Our 6 days Kenya’s “Masai Mara” guide Joseph was very professional. Joseph was punctual, experienced, knowledgeable, friendly and an excellent driver. Thank you to Joseph, My mother and I learned to be patient and wait for the right moment to see the behavior on animals in their habitat. We saw and learn a lot about animals in their environment. Our trip was incredible. We can highly recommend Joseph as a tour guide and Lappet Faced Safaris as a reputable company.

They are the big five of Safari tours
We had a wonderful time during our safari Tour with lappet faced safaris! We didn‘t know what to expect since this would be our first experience but our expectations weren‘t just fulfilled but exceeded!
We were warmly welcomed by Fransisco and our Tour Guide Gabriel and were always looked after. When there was a Problem he could help us immediately and was very professional. The communication was very uncomplicated and he responded very quickly!
Gabriel is an excellent and well experienced Guide. We were brought to the best Spots to see all the animlas, the beautiful landscape and some spectacular sunrises. He was incredible spotting the animals from very far distances so that we were very lucky to see all the Big five and many more!
He is a good driver and we felt very safe during the whole time. He even speaks fluent german and knows all the German names of the animals which was great. We learned a lot about the wildlife, the Environment and the area.
The food during our trip which was cooked by our friendly cook was also very delicious.
We had an outstanding experience during our five days and it felt like saying goodbye to Friends when we were leaving.
We will keep it in very good memory and hope to Return one day!
Couldn’t recommend more!

Best safari ever! We just loved it!
As students with low budget we were not sure if we should really invest the money - retrospectively it was the best decision we could have made! We were warmly welcomed at the airport und felt so safe an well looked-after all the time we were extremely sad when we had to leave. All in all, there is not a single thing to criticize, everthing went smoothly and our expectations were exceeded. The food was fantastic (and a lot), and our guide tried really hard to show us the big five (which he managed thanks to his experience in finding the best spots and his sharp eyes). We learned so much, not only about the animals but also about the country and culture. Our guide was very competent, fluent in german and very nice- we will definetely try to come back!

Amazing safari - big recommendation
We had such a wonderful time with Lappet Faced Safari and were completely happy with our choice. The organisation and the airport pickup went super easy and they are very reliable. Gabriel, our guide, was speaking German which was fantastic. Their knowledge was impressive and it felt like an all-inclusive trip because every detail was organised. All in all I can recommend Francisco and his team warmly to everyone who plans to do a safari in Tanzania.

Expectations exceeded
Everything was great. Communication with Francisco/ lappet faced safaris was fast and uncomplicated, we got a really good prize and all went smoothly. Pick up at the airport was good, we got a very warm welcome. We were taken good care of before and during the Safari. It was very well planed and thought through but at the same time our Guide always found a way to make it the best possible experience for our group. We saw so many animals in this impressive landscape thanks to our skilled and sharpeyed guide. Also nice was that our Guide Gabriel could speak german and english, he has a good knowledge of the wildlife, nature and life in Tanzania, so we learned a lot and had really interesting conversations. And after experiencing so much during the day we could relax in the evenings and enjoy very delicious freshly cooked food, prepared by our cook.
This Safari exceeded all my expectations.
In the end I can say, it felt more like traveling with friends than just doing a safari tour and it was really sad to say good bye. It's safe to say I would love to come back!
Extremely exceeded our expectations
My wife and I, had a great time of 8/9 days trip with lappet faced safaris to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and it was a great experience to speak the truth! Noel was an excellent and experienced guide loaded with a lots of knowledge of the wildlife and understood the total culture of the region. He continuously explained us everything we wanted to know about the region and the wildlife. He also knew where to find animals all the time he was asked. As a person he was a really great travel companion in a trip like that. We saw the Big 5 and a lot of other amazing animals and very diverse landscapes. The accommodation on the trip was excellent, especially the Into Wild Africa Tented Camp in Serengeti where we slept in the national park itself, had a luxurious tent, great food and very friendly staffs.

Once in a lifetime experience
We did a safari tour of 8 days including Serengeti with Noel. We really enjoyed our trip. Noel made it a great experience for us. He explained all about the animals and the nature. You could really feel the passion he has concerning the nature. He answered every question we had in detail. Furthermore he was always motivated to show us as much as possible and we had a lot of fun with him. We can really recommend lappet faced safari- especially with Noel
