Excellent experience, knowledgeable and friendly
5/5

Jacob and Freddy have been terrific! From the beginning Jacob was prompt in accommodating and developing an itinerary that worked for our group. He went above and beyond to schedule our COVID19 testing with a local doctor before our departure.

Freddy was our safari guide and driver and was with us during the entire stay. He understood what animals we wished to see and worked hard to spot them. He was great company and very knowledgeable about the culture, animals, plants and may other questions we asked during our trip together.

We highly recommend using Smile with us travel and would use them again.

5/5

Great price, great communication from the beginning which really put us at ease. And questions were answered promptly and any problems we had were resolved and talked through. We would do another trip again through Jacob as he made the whole process great and Freddy was an excellent driver and guide.

Very well customized tour
5/5

I have asked for a private, customized tour in selous national park. Within a few hours a get very fair priced offer for a 4 day safari from Jacob. He is the owner of smile with us tours.
The driver and guide (Kassim) was waiting at Dar Es Salaam airport and picked me up for driving to the national park. First he helped me by getting a local sim card and changing money. While driving to the lodge he has given me a lot of informations about Tanzania. If I have asked him questions a could give me always a good answers.
By driving he gave me good tips for more customizing my tour. So we have changed the plan of the tour a bit. A have made a cultural village tour, a boat safari, a bush walk and a national park drive. Every experience has been great.
The Africa Safari Lodge is a very pleasant lodge with spacious rooms, good food, very friendly staff and a nice pool.
Thank you Jacob for organizing this tour.
Thank you Kassim for driving me so safe and respectful, for giving so many good informations and for your funny jokes. you have given an unforgettable experience.

Great Safari time with Smile With Us Tours !
5/5

I went for a private 3-person safari with these guys and we all loved it! Before it started I have asked Jacob many questions and we arranged everything as we wanted (4 days from Mwanza to Arusha). Our driver was Bern and the cook was Edward. Both of these guys were doing their best to make our safari a lifetime adventure and they did it. Bern is a very experienced driver who knows Serengeti like his own pocket and Edward was a real Chef cooking delicious food. Many thanks for both o you guys!
Please remember that Safari is not a ZOO and you can't control animals. But if you have an experienced driver then he will know how where to go - Bern is one of them.
Thank you very much for the lovely trip!

Wonderful 1Day Nyerere/Selous Safari from Zanzibar
5/5

Jacob and his team at Smile with Us organized for us one of the most memorable experiences we have ever had, and they did it with just two days notice! If you come to Zanzibar please do not miss out on doing this safari with them. The animals in the wild, and the beautiful scenery will forever be part of our memories. We saw so many animals thanks for our wonderful guide Ramadhani! Jacob was even able to accommodate my wife's dietary restrictions. More importantly the whole process was seamless! They take care of everything, you just walk to your hotel reception and they pick you up and bring you back. Amazing experience!!! Once in a lifetime! Asante Sana Jacob and Ramadhani!!

Super!
5/5

Great service and value for money. The communication was fast and easy on WhatsApp. Payment was done safely online. The driver of the game drive, Salum, was great and we felt very safe. He showed us lots of animals and was great with our 6 year old daughter. We also loved the bush walk, which was great entertainment! Just keep in mind that cash is the only method of payment wile at the safari camp. Luckily Jacob was able to help us with that as well. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we highly recommend Smile with us tours!

The most beautiful safari with the kindest tour guide who could have imagined!
5/5

My best friend and I did the 3 day Safari tour in Nyerere National Park last march. Even though it's supposed to be the beginning of rain season we were really lucky with the whole trip and the weather. The advantage of the rainy season is that nature was reaaally green and we were pretty much the only tourists in the whole national park. Our tour guide Mr Msese was very kind, who tried everything to make our safari trip as beautiful and comfortable as possible. He was really the most warm-hearted and caring guide we could have asked for - just like the whole team of the camp. The camp itself is so beautiful and with so much love and attention to every detail. The food was also very good and they did everything to make our stay as nice and comfortable as possible.

Thank you again Smile With Us Tours Africa - for the most beautiful safari trip we could have imagined!! We definitely will be back some day.
100% recommandation!
