An experience of a lifetime!
Our experience with Serengeti Wakanda was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we first made contact, Norbelt and the team was responsive, friendly, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted out of our safari and crafted an itinerary that was personalised, seamless, and absolutely unforgettable.
Throughout the entire trip, their communication was excellent. We always felt supported and informed, whether it was pre-trip updates, daily check-ins during our safari, or thoughtful touches along the way. They truly went above and beyond—not just in terms of service, but in how much they genuinely cared about making our experience special.
Our guide Isaya was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, passionate, and made every game drive an adventure. We saw so much more than we could have dreamed of, all while learning about the wildlife and landscapes from someone who clearly loves what they do.
The lodges they chose were stunning, comfortable, and perfectly located, with staff that made us feel at home from day one.
What stood out the most was the level of personal attention we received. Nothing felt rushed or generic. From start to finish, we felt like we were in the best hands —and we were.
There were so many incredible moments on our safari that it’s genuinely hard to pick just a few highlights. Every day brought something new and awe-inspiring. That said, a few memories will stay with us forever—like watching a lioness calling her cubs and them running to catch her, seeing a hyena feed and spotting hyena cubs peeking out from their den, even spotting a cheetah after its hunt. We also had some breathtaking close encounters, including elephants crossing the road just meters from our vehicle, giraffes grazing right beside us, and even lions walking along the same track we were on. The proximity to these magnificent animals, all in their natural habitat, was both humbling and exhilarating. Moments like these are what make this experience truly unforgettable.
We wholeheartedly recommend Serengeti Wakanda to anyone considering a safari in Tanzania. This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and we’re already planning to return with them and hoping for Isaya as our guide. If you’re looking for a safari company that is professional, passionate, and truly dedicated to their guests, look no further.

Very knowledgeable, respectful and professional
We booked a luxury safari of six days with Wakanda. Our tour guide was Bashir and there are no words to thank him for his amazing job. He was very knowledgeable on where the animals were and their behaviors. His planning of times and schedule helped us see, not just the big five but so many more animals. He was friendly and very professional the entire time. While in the safari he told us interesting facts about the animals and the parks. I felt safe the entire trip as Bashir always made sure we felt comfortable with the locations, rest areas and while seeing the wild animals. My experience in the safari will be an unforgettable one. The food was very good specially the food made by Dula. All of the Wakanda team is amazing and I recommend this experience. Thank you again Wakanda team and Bashir!!

An Unforgettable Tanzanian Safari – Thanks to Bashir, Duala, and Goodluck
We recently completed a 7-day safari through Tanzania, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime – made exceptional by the wonderful team behind it: Bashir, our incredible safari guide; Duala, talented cook; and Goodluck, our helpful and responsive sales representative.
Our journey took us from Arusha to the Western Serengeti, across Central and Eastern Serengeti, down to the majestic Ngorongoro Crater, and finally back to Arusha. Each location brought unforgettable sights and experiences, and we are deeply grateful to the team who made it all possible.
Bashir, our guide, was nothing short of amazing. His fluent English, deep knowledge of wildlife, plants, ecosystems, and local cultures, and his intuitive understanding of the land made every game drive a fascinating adventure. He knew exactly where to take us to find the animals we most wanted to see and always made sure we were comfortable, informed, and never rushed. His professionalism, patience, and friendly demeanor truly elevated the entire experience – we felt we were in the best possible hands throughout the trip.
Thanks to Bashir, Duala, and Goodluck, we will go home with memories we will truly cherish forever. Their dedication, hard work, and care turned this safari into something far beyond what we could have hoped for.
If you’re considering a safari in Tanzania, we cannot recommend this team highly enough. You’ll be in expert hands – and you’ll come away with the experience of a lifetime.
Andrew & Serengeti Wakanda are THE BEST!
This safari with Serengeti Wakanda was outstanding in every way. Our guide Andrew was a pro—he found us lions, cubs, a rhino (!), and even a hidden leopard in Serengeti. He kept the vehicle clean, well-stocked, and always went out of his way to help other guides on the road. A true team player.
We stayed at Marera Lodge, Signature Serengeti, and Masek Lodge—each one was excellent. The food was incredible, especially for us vegetarians. And a Father’s Day cake surprise at Signature Camp was a really sweet gesture.
The early morning game drives, the balloon safari, the sightings, and the warm service made this trip truly special. We also got to meet other Wakanda guides and were amazed by how much joy and unity there was in the team.
If you want a professional, well-organized safari with heart, Serengeti Wakanda is the way to go.

A Truly Heartfelt Safari – Beyond Our Expectations
We just returned from the most memorable safari with Serengeti Wakanda, and I can say without hesitation—it was the trip of a lifetime.
From the start, our tour consultant was extremely responsive and helpful, not only answering all our questions but also giving us advice on what to expect, what to pack, and even what to wear for the balloon safari! It gave us peace of mind before arriving.
Our guide Andrew was simply phenomenal. His knowledge of wildlife, ecosystems, and animal behavior was on another level. He spotted a leopard lounging in a tree from an unbelievable distance and shared so many interesting facts over dinner each night. His passion for wildlife made every game drive exciting and educational.
Being vegetarian, we were a bit unsure about the food options—but wow, were we impressed! Every lodge—Marera Mountain View Lodge, Signature Serengeti Camp, and Masek Lodge—offered delicious and creative vegetarian meals. We were truly well-fed and cared for.
A special highlight: we celebrated Father’s Day at Signature Camp, and they surprised us with a beautiful cake. It was such a thoughtful gesture that touched our hearts.
We were lucky to see a wide variety of wildlife: lions with cubs, elephants with calves, the Great Migration, even a rhino in Serengeti, which was a huge surprise! Our early morning game drives were filled with magic—and the balloon safari was absolutely breathtaking.
Our vehicle was clean, comfortable, and always stocked with water, wine, and beer—such a nice touch. We even witnessed Andrew assist other guides whose vehicles were stuck or broken down. It was heartwarming to see that level of camaraderie.
We also met other guides from the Wakanda team along the way, and the sense of family and unity among them was so clear. It’s no surprise that the entire trip felt warm, genuine, and incredibly well organized.
Highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda—for their professionalism, kindness, and passion. You won’t just go on a safari—you’ll feel like part of their extended family.

Bashir is good natured, knowledgeable, and hospitable.
Words really cannot do this trip justice. Irene was so helpful in coordinating the trip and answered all questions promptly. We were able to see so many animals and birds. Our guide Bashir was so thoughtful and an expert on locating animals (patience is key). Luckily on our trip we were able to see the big five, lions, elephants, buffalo, rhinos, and a leopard in less than 24 hours. The lodging was clean and the hotel staff was very attentive. Bashir was so knowledgeable it was like watching a nature documentary. I would 100 percent recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Irene and Bashir!

Great life experience, very professional and reliable
Starting with finding the right package, Goodluck was very helpful to assist us finding the right Safari for us. We went through many interactions, varying budget, destinations etc. He was extremely patience and very responsive. I was normally texting him in the evening when I had time, and he was always ready to respond. When I compared it to other options I had I thought it was among the best priced.
The journey itself was a life experience. This was my second Tanzanian safari, this time I brought my parents (their first time) and I was hoping they had an unforgettable experience…. I think it was a success !
My parents were looking forward to seeing wild animals for the first time, but also in learning more about the culture(s) in Tanzania. Our guide, Francis, a Maasai himself was very prepared, knowledgable and always ready to reply to our, often times, unusual questions. We always felt safe and taken care of. Traveling with my parents meant that I wanted to have a predictable, easy going, and feeling safe journey. He delivered.
…and the cherry in the cake was definitely the food. Dula our chef cooked 3 delicious and abundant meals a day. He is an excellent chef that is obviously passionate about cooking. Not only taste, but also visual presentation and very found of making you feel like in fancy restaurant, while you’re actually camping :) We had asked to have local dishes. He delivered.

Great Safari Experience
We had a private tour with Serengeti Wakanda Tours covering waterfalls hiking, coffee plantatiom visit, Safari in Tarangiri, Serengeti and the Crater. The company was super responsive to all our needs and requests. The trip was very well planned, all the accomodations were great and our guide Andrew was super knowledgable and experienced. He was able to find us a lot of great animal sightings. His timing and planning was always great. And he was very friendly and kind. Overall I really recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours to anyone that is willing to make a Safari Tour.

Brilliant family safari from start to finish- form putting together a perfect itinerary that hit our or goals and budget, to flawless execution and logistics (permits, hotels, pick ups etc)… but what made it really unforgettable was our amazing guide, Godson, who is not only an expert and passionate about his field, but brings true warmth and friendship to the experience.
