Once in a lifetime experience!
5/5

We booked a trip to Tanzania for January 2020, with the main objective to go in a safari. After reading the reviews, we concluded that the best option was Wakanda Safari with the "5 days budget safari trip", so we would have enough time to enjoy the parks.
We landed in Arusha city one day before the trip start and Bartho, the owner of the company, picked us up from the airport. We spent the first night at Arusha tourist inn, which is a nice accomodation for every tourist in transit. During the trip we slept 2 night in a budget lodge and 2 nights camping (what an experince!!! My personal favourite was the night spend in Ngorongoro, the view was the best!)
The next day we met our driver Jackson and our chef Dulla. We traveled with 4 more people in the car: a smart belgian, a cool american and 2 nice swedes.
Our guide-driver Jackson knew the best places to spot animals, even the rarest ones such as cheetas and leopards; he was trully amazing as he saw the animals from far distance, without binocculars!! He explained a lot of interesting things about wildlife so the whole car ride was a pleasure. He gave us the time to admire the animals and the surroundings without rushing. Besides being an excelent driver, Jsckson did his best to spot the Big 5, so a big thank you to him! Also, a nice surprise for us was that it was baby season :).
Unlike other tourists who were eating sandwiches, we always had tasty cooked food( rice, meat, vegetables). Dulla is an amazing chef, we loved his dishes and appreciate his efforts as we always had at least one main dish and always dessert and fresh fruits. Imagine cooking pie and fresh bread in the middle of the park, fantastic!
Last but no least, Bartho was very responsive and helpful. He went with us to exchange money and gave us nice tips about where to eat ( try Kitamu coffe, it was Bartho's recoomandation and it's a really nice place with good food.You should try the fresh smoothies!) and what to do in the 2 days spend in Arusha. He also gave us a ride back to the airport and even helped us renting a car for Zanzibar.
If you don't know what to choose, we highly recommend Wakanda Safari! The team is amazing and you will surely have an amazing experince.
Thank you guys for everything!

Perfect Safari
5/5

I had a game-drive in January 2021. With a friend of mine, we visited Lake Manyare, Tarangire and Ngorongoro. All three parks are very different, can’t even say which of them I liked the most. Nature was terrific!
That was an amazing experience! All was good. Accommodation - simple but clean. Food was extremely delicious. Our cook Abdullah indulged us with fine dishes every day. How he could manage all of those even pastry with a quite limited recourse that is a mystery for me. Safari car with a pop-up roof was very convenient, they envisage even sockets there. They provided us with unlimited bottled water; we had also beer and wine. Our driver Malisa was an experienced guide. Educated us a lot about wildlife as well as taught us some Swahili and explained the traditions and life of locals. He was very helpful, attentive, proactive and friendly. Due to him, we had really great time. Many thanks!
Cannot but say I was pleasantly surprised with Serengeti Wakanda Tours’ punctuality, professionalism and cordiality. When in Africa again, for sure I will choose you guys for my new game-drive ))

Manyara, Tarangire, NgoroNgoro 3 days tour
5/5

Me and my friend took a safari with Wakanda on Jan. 25-27, 2021. I was afraid safari planning would be the most difficult part of the trip in terms of planning and communication but it wasn't the case. Well, it took me some time looking thought the numerous tour agencies but whoever is reading this - lucky you - search no further, you've found the best one ;)
In all the seriousness, the service of Wakanda tours is outstanding, communication is easy and straightforward, all your answers are answered and needs are tended to.
Our tour guide Malisa gave us a "brief university course" about the the land and wildlife :)). He also the best at spotting wild life and probably is extremely lucky )) we've been able to see some really rare sightings. The cook Abdulla is a magician, the food was always top notch, provided we had some gluten free people and vegetarian, he made various delicious dishes that satisfied everyone's needs.

Highly recommended!!
P.S. Bring some extra money, nobody would demand tips from you, but trust me, you would love to express your thanks!

Great Value Safari
5/5

Highly recommend Serengeti Wakanda tours for your upcoming Safari! For a budget safari, it was very high quality, and I can't see the additional cost of a different operator being worth the increase. Our tour guide (Andrew) was very knowledgeable of the animals and the parks, and we wouldn't have spotted 1/2 of the animals without his experience.

Amazingly professional, knowledgeable and affordable
5/5

I couldn’t have expected more for a “budget safari” as it in no way felt like one. It beat my every expectation by far. Bartho was always quick to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Malissa was our driver and made us feel like family, we absolutely loved him. This is the company I will forever recommend to anyone wanting to take a safari trip.

the safari to Serengeti and Norongoro was a dream that came true thanks to Bartho who organized it perfectly well and who made sure that the trip was carried out according to schedule and without any problems. Our guide Malisa is an extraordinary guide and driver who took us on the safari and explained and made it easy for us to enjoy the depth of the fauna and flora, and provided us with protection and security throughout the trip, and Abdulla our cook Chef cooked all the days an excellent meal, with desserts and cakes and above all he prepared hot handmade bread every day. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM AS I ASSURE YOU THAT BY BEING WITH THEM THEY WILL ALSO REALIZE YOUR DREAMS OF ENJOYING A WONDERFUL SAFARI. I AM SO GRATEFUL WITH ALL MY HEART MALISA, BARTHO AND ABDULLA THEY HAVE MADE MY DREAM COMES TRUE
