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

Well organized, available for any need and amazing tour organization among different parks
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.

An Unforgettable Serengeti Migration Safari – Truly Beyond Our Expectations
We’ve just returned from an incredible 8-day migration calving safari through the Serengeti, Ndutu, Tarangire, and Ngorongoro, and honestly, it was one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.
Right from the start, Aiswarya, who helped us with the booking, was fantastic. She took the time to arrange a detailed call with my wife and me, patiently walking us through the itinerary, accommodations, and all the logistics. Her clear explanations, transparency, and quick responses gave us complete peace of mind even before we arrived in Tanzania.
Once the safari began, our experience was taken to a whole new level by our guide, Basheer. He was exceptional in every way. His deep knowledge of wildlife behavior, the national parks, and the terrain—along with his strong connections with other guides—meant we were always in the right place at the right time. Thanks to him, we witnessed moments we never imagined we’d see in real life: Lions mating, making a kill, and sharing it with their cubs, A heart-pounding cheetah hunt, Driving side by side with a leopard calmly walking through the bush, Massive herds of buffalo and elephants enjoying mud baths, Hippos seen up close and even a rare rhino sighting
The safari vehicle itself was extremely comfortable, which made the long game drives enjoyable for our entire family. Despite the muddy, rough, and often challenging roads inside the parks, Basheer handled everything with total confidence and calmness. We always felt safe. His professionalism really stood out. He made sure we boarded into a clean vehicle every single day, which says a lot about his attention to detail.
Throughout the trip, we felt well taken care of. The accommodations and food exceeded our expectations, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The entire journey was seamless, well organized, and very family-friendly.
If you’re thinking about a safari in Tanzania, we truly cannot recommend this team enough. Aiswarya’s thoughtful planning and Basheer’s outstanding guiding and driving turned this trip into a once-in-a-lifetime adventure filled with unforgettable memories. We would happily choose them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an authentic, well-executed safari experience.

Thank you Tom for an amazing trip
We had an incredible 10-day safari in Tanzania with Wakanda Safari Tour, and we cannot thank our guide Tom Sifu (Tom) enough. Tom is an exceptional guide and a truly wonderful human being — very spiritual, deeply connected to nature, and incredibly knowledgeable. He always knew where to go, how to spot the best wildlife moments, and how to position us to fully experience and capture them. Thanks to him, every day felt special and meaningful. This safari exceeded all our expectations, and Tom made it unforgettable.
Amazing safari and overall experience
Our safari with Tom and Wakanda Tours exceeded all expectations. Tom was fantastic—attentive, flexible, and always one step ahead. He truly took our wishes to heart and found the most incredible spots and viewpoints. Extremely knowledgeable, he also shared amazing, in-depth conversations with us about wildlife, culture, and life itself. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

From the Serengeti to Kilimanjaro – Seamless Adventure, Professional Expert Guide and True Integrity
We recently returned from a dual-adventure trip to Tanzania over Christmas ’25 — a last‑minute plan that combined a Serengeti safari with a Mt. Kilimanjaro trek. Our group grew from two to four, including a couple in their 70s with specific constraints, making coordination especially complex and tricky.
Coordination & Planning
Organizing this trip was a marathon, with more than 10 iterations before the itinerary was finalized. Through it all, Aishwarya was exceptional. Responsive, patient, and always “on the ball,” she navigated shifting group sizes, banking/payment delays, and logistical hurdles with calm professionalism. Her patience, persistence and clarity kept the trip on track when everyone’s patience was wearing thin.
Serengeti Safari – Guided by Elia
If you book this trip, ask for Elia. He is a phenomenal guide — sharp, grounded, and blessed with vision sharper than the predators themselves. He spotted a lion in a tree from 500m away, visible to us only through binoculars.
Elia is “flexible like water,” adapting to every request with humor and confidence. His integrity is equally remarkable: when his personal binoculars went missing, he politely declined our offer to replace them. Beyond wildlife expertise, his attentiveness to safety — even in bustling market areas — gave us complete peace of mind. A true gentleman and a legend.
Mt. Kilimanjaro Trek
The mountain leg was equally rewarding. Our guide was a powerhouse of fitness and knowledge, leading us confidently to the 4,000m+ altitude. His insights into local flora, fauna, and route intricacies transformed the climb into an educational journey as much as a physical challenge.
Summary
This operator delivers both luxury wildlife viewing, comfortable tents and demanding mountain trekking with world‑class professionalism. From sensitive family logistics to high‑altitude adventure, they turn complex plans into seamless, unforgettable memories. Highly recommended.

Exceptional Service and Unforgettable Experiences: A memorable holiday
From the very first inquiry, the communication was prompt, detailed, and incredibly helpful. The value for money was outstanding, services were flawless; every transfer, activity, and lodge booking was perfectly coordinated. Most importantly, they were utterly reliable, creating a trip where we felt completely safe and cared for, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the breathtaking beauty of Tanzania without a single worry.
Special thanks to our guide Zephania with his dedication that made our trip unforgettable. His knowledge is exceptional and we learnt so much during the tour itself.
In additional, Aishwarya’s organisation and follow up right from my enquiry and booking of the tour, during the tour and post tour give us the assurance and care beyond our expectation. Thank you Aishwarya
