Beautiful safari in 3 different parks
We had a wonderful trip with Serengeti Wakanda. Our guide Zephania showed us the best of the parks we vistited (Tarrangire, Ngorongo crater and lake Mayara) and he made our safari an incredible experience. Comunicatiion with Serengeti Wakande went smoothly befor and during our trip. Would recomend.

Amazing Kili & Safari! Saw the Big 5. Top team & service. Thanks Serengeti Wakanda!
Unforgettable Experience in Tanzania: Kilimanjaro and Safari!
We just returned from an 8-day Lemosho route trek and a 5-day safari with Serengeti Wakanda, and we only have words of gratitude.
Kilimanjaro:
We were a team of 12 led by Godwin and Joseph. They were exceptional guides: kind, helpful, and always looking out for us. The 7 days leading up to the summit were a great experience, but their help on summit night was crucial to reaching the top—it was a truly emotional moment.
The logistics were flawless: the food was delicious and plentiful every day. They provided water for washing and drinking (we used purification tablets for safety), and the -10°C sleeping bags kept us very warm and comfortable.
Safari:
Our guide was Julius, a true local who speaks Spanish, which was great for asking questions. He is an expert driver; he navigated difficult terrain with total confidence and ease. He knows the land like the back of his house! Thanks to him, we saw so many animals, including the Big Five.
A special mention to Lucia, who organized the trip perfectly and checked in on us every single day. Thank you to the entire team for taking such good care of us. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable luxury safari experience with exceptional guides, breathtaking wildlife encounters,
We booked a 4-day safari with 2 travel days, during which we were also offered an Arusha city tour, something we truly appreciated. During the city tour, our driver Fabian guided us and did an excellent job providing insight into Arusha as a city, its culture, different neighborhoods, and its history. The conversations along the way were both informative and very pleasant.
Safari Day 1: Tarangire National Park
Our first safari day took place in Tarangire National Park, known as the home of elephants. It was an incredible introduction to the safari experience, with large herds of elephants and beautiful landscapes that immediately set the tone for the journey.
Safari Day 2: Ngorongoro to Ndutu and Serengeti
On the second day, we passed through the Ngorongoro area on our way to Ndutu before entering the Serengeti. This day truly highlighted our guide Tom’s exceptional knowledge. He decided on a detour based on recent animal movements, and it paid off enormously. Along with many other animals, we saw cheetahs and a large number of lions, all thanks to Tom’s ability to adapt the route to real-time conditions.
Safari Day 3: Serengeti National Park
The third safari day was spent entirely in the Serengeti. Here we saw many lions, two leopards, and even the beginning of the Great Migration. Witnessing this natural spectacle was an unforgettable experience and a highlight of the trip.
Safari Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater
Our final safari day took us down into the Ngorongoro Crater. This day allowed us to complete the Big Five, as we were fortunate enough to spot 6 of the approximately 36 rhinos living in the crater. Seeing these rare animals in such a unique environment was an incredible way to end the safari.
We chose the luxury accommodations and can highly recommend all of them. The rooms were amazing, very clean, and the food was excellent everywhere we stayed. Night one was at Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge, night two at Signature Serengeti Luxury Tented Safari Camp, and night three at Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge. While all were outstanding, Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge truly stood out with its breathtaking views, where we even saw antelopes directly from our balcony.
During the trip, one of us unfortunately became ill, but our guide Tom and our Wakanda team contact Gwen handled the situation quickly and professionally. Throughout the entire journey, we felt safe, well taken care of, and experienced excellent communication.
On the final day, our flight departed on the same day as our last safari. The transition from our guide Tom to our driver Jackson was smooth and well organized. Jackson drove us to the airport and even patiently waited for the clouds to clear so we could catch a glimpse of “The Shy Mountain,” Mount Kilimanjaro.
We can strongly recommend Wakanda and all the amazing staff we met along the way. This was truly an unforgettable experience.

Wakanda is an excellent agency.
I booked a safari with Wakanda Tours and I was extremely satisfied with the entire experience. The communication before and during the trip was excellent, everything was perfectly organized, and our guide was outstanding – knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional. The overall package exceeded my expectations and made the safari truly unforgettable. I can highly recommend Wakanda Tours and would definitely book with them again.

Amazing 7days safari
We took a 7-day safari tour with Wakanda and it was fantastic. Gwen patiently organized the trip and all our transfers, listening to all our requests. Throughout the trip, she always made sure everything was going smoothly. She was truly superb. We can only thank Benedict, our guide. He accompanied us throughout the safari, passionately explaining every detail we requested. We found him to be extremely knowledgeable and available to answer all our questions. He knows the entire Serengeti by heart, and thanks to this, he allowed us to see so many animals (especially cats). If you go on a safari with Wakanda, ask for Benedict. He made us feel at home, and it was incredibly beautiful to see his passion for safaris and his respect for nature and animals. The meals were also exceptional; they surprised us greatly. Chef Moses cooked every meal for us exceptionally well. excellent breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Thank you wakanda for all

Serengeti Wakanda and Andrew are the best of the best
If you don’t book your safari with Serengeti Wakanda, you are making a mistake. We knew any company could take us to the parks and show us the animals, but when it came to deciding which company, we picked Wakanda because of how good the service was from just our initial email. Goodluck was our first point of contact and he answered anything and everything with a lot of thought and detail. He helped us plan our 8 day Honeymoon trip around the different parks and visit to the nearby tribes, and at the end of it all, we can easily say everything was exceptional. The great customer service didn’t end with Goodluck. Our first night we did tented camping, Wakanda provided our own private chef to cook us dinner, breakfast, and prepared lunch at the campsite. This was completely unexpected and felt very personalized to our trip. Then we came to learn that each and every one of our lunches were a hot meal prepared by the lodges you book, while most other companies provide meal boxes with sandwiches. The company also notified each lodge we stayed at that it was our honeymoon, and we were sang to and given gifts from the lodges as a congratulations. This company definetly goes out of their way to make your trip as best as it can be.
Additionally, our trip would not have been as amazing as it was if it wasn’t for our tour guide Andrew. On top of being a kind person with a great personality, he knew everything there had to do with all the parks and animals. He told us you could drop him anywhere in the Serengeti and within five minutes he’d know where he was, and I 100% believe him. During our trip he would have colleagues radio to him who got lost and asked for guidance. When our jeep found a leopard, he was able to pinpoint the location to others. When it came to one of our last game drives, two guides decided to follow us to a far part of the park because Andrew knew it had better chances to see the big cats, and on our way we found a cheetah eating its catch and then a pride of lions with cubs. No company should ever guarantee you to see all the animals because of how unpredictable it can be, but with Wakanda and Andrew, you will have an amazing time with the best chance to see everything you wanted to see.

Professional, friendly, and knowledgeable
Wow, our safari experience was absolutely incredible! My husband and I went for our honeymoon, and we were already super excited about the trip. But guess what? It was even better than we imagined!
First of all, everyone we met in mainland was incredibly friendly and helpful. Joshua picked us up from the airport, and our guide, Andrew, was just amazing! He was the best! So much so that other guides would tell us we were with the legend or even ask to follow us because they didn’t know their way as well as Andrew.
Andrew’s expertise and knowledge were truly impressive. He knew exactly where to look, and with a little bit of luck, we even spotted the big five! We saw lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and 3 RHINOS! And there were so many other amazing animals too, like wildebeest, zebras, pumbas, beautiful cheetahs, giraffes, and more.
Andrew was also incredibly knowledgeable and would take the time to answer any questions we had. He explained everything and why things were a certain way or why animals did certain things. For example, I learned that cats use their whiskers to sense whether their prey has died before starting eating.
The lodges we stayed in at the Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro were also great. Our tented camps were especially close to nature and had delicious food. We could hear hyenas, buffalos, and lions nearby, which was so cool.
We also decided to camp for one night at the Tarangire, and the company arranged everything for us. We had our own private chef, and he made all our meals, which were delicious!
This was our first time doing a safari, and it was an experience that changed our brain chemistry. We went to Zanzibar after the safari, and for the first time ever, we were sad to go to a beach. Not only was this a bucket list experience, but it turned out to be an amazing, truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. Imagine, we came in January and we got to see thousands of Wildebeest and Zebras moving south to the Serengeti— that was simply the most beautiful thing to see.
Oh, and before I forget, Wakanda was also fantastic! After researching multiple companies and chatting with them, we chose Wakanda because we had the pleasure of speaking with Good Luck, who was incredibly friendly, approachable, and worked with us to make our dream trip a reality.
Therefore, if you are decided whether to book with Wakanda or not, I would HIGHLY suggest you do (and ask for Andrew to be your guide). Although this trip is a once-in-a-lifetime trip, we surely hope we come back in a few years.

Exceptional Big 5 safari. Amazing lodges & Witson is an incredible guide!
Our experience with Serengeti Wakanda was exceptional from start to finish. Goodluck was incredibly patient during the planning phase, working closely with us to craft the perfect luxury itinerary.
The true standout was our guide, Witson. He made us feel relaxed and at ease from Day 1. As someone who easily gets car sick, I was incredibly impressed by his driving - his style was so smooth and superb that I didn't feel sick once! His expertise is unmatched; he found the Big 5 within six days, including rare sightings like a lion mating ritual and a leopard with its kill. Witson’s kindness and deep knowledge truly made the trip.
The luxury accommodations were superb, particularly Nyuki Migration Camp, which exceeded all expectations. We would book with Serengeti Wakanda again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to everyone. We strongly encourage you to request Witson as your guide for the best possible experience!

The best holiday ever
We went for a 12 days private safari in tented camps with Wakanda, everything has been perfect: the activities, the animals and the food! We had the best holiday ever, perfect organisation and communication since the custom plan of the trip with Beatrice. We felt secure and very well taken care of by our two new friends, our amazing guide Abu and our professor chef Dullah. They made our holiday ever better, with a very strong knowledge of their work and their great personalities, we had so many good laugh together. So if you are still in doubt, don't think it twice and go with Wakanda! Elena and Fabio

The Safari tour was great. Wakanda tour Operator was really good on organizing a last minute your of 6 days during the christmas break period.
The guide, Lukas, was amazing since he made us whatch all the different animals living in the savana, was always kind and available for any need. In addition, he explained a lot of things regarding the wild animals and local tanzanian habits making this Experience unique. I really reccomend Lukas as a guide being also really friendly and funny.
