A delightful Safrai in Tanzania
5/5

The young entrepreneurs who run the company has been diligent with their prior arrival communication and the arrival and departure arrangement has been made with personal attention. Bartho and Carlson are very accommendating with questions and requests, ie binoculars and Coca Cola. I also leaned a lot about Tanzania from chatting with them as they are very open to share information of their country.
As a solo traveler, it has been difficult in getting a Safrai booking so I was very pleased to join two other solo travelers and a couple. Our guide Anward has over 20 years experience. His knowledge and passion of the parks and wildlife coupled with his sense of humour which made our long driving journey enjoyable. The public camping facilities are basic but adequate.

I could recommend Bartho and Carlson for others who are looking to do Safrai in Tanzania. They are equally professional and personable and their arrangement is reliable.

Great Safari experience with Wakada tour
5/5

l have contacted Wakanda tour via their WhatsApp number mentioned in their internet page. l immediately received information about the whole package.
Bartho and Carlson both are very friendly and taking care persons. They helped me with all my queries and took care of a smoot nice Safari experience. Carlson and Bartho have helped me with arranging my flight and Bartho has drove me to the airport and made sure l get my flight.

l have taken the budged one for 6 days. l met great people from Canada and from Europe during the Safari. People around you makes the experience much better.
we started at Tarangire, then Manyara, Serengeti and finally Ngorongoro. All different experience and different wild lifes.
l liked Serengeti most since we also stayed in tented camp in the middle of wild life.
we have been taken care very well by our cook and our guide. Our guide, Dougles, was very experienced guide and gave us many information about wild life and also about Tanzania and its cultural life.
l surely advise Wakanda tour to everyone for a great Safari experience.

THE BIG 4!! Can't ask for much more than that!!
5/5

Carlson and Bartho are the guys running Wakanda. They could not have been nicer and more helpfull. From arranging  (and included in the safari price) accomodation (night before and night after) , picking me up at the airport (such a relief not having to think about that one!) helpfull tips before I set off, everything!! In all fairness I didn't have a great budget, and it was 22h and I was trying to go on safari the next morning, and they still managed everything perfectly for me!!!
Six of us set off in a jeep, we all had window seats, which doesn't really matter because all the jeeps have hatch tops, so the minute you see something everyone is standing anyway.  Bottled water was included in the price (which isn't the norm, so keep an eye out).
I had chosen 1 day in Tarangire, 3 in the Serengueti and 1 in Ngorongoro. We did 1 night at a lodge and 3 were in camp sites, which was great because of wild life walking around at night.
It's all super safe, our guide knew where to go and we saw more animals than we could of ever asked for.
Carlson and Bartho kept in contact with me, which is kind of impossible, but when we passed through the gates of the parks we got a few mins of wifi and a message from them. And of course they were there to receive me on arrival.
As a tip, defo bring binoculars (or rent there), always use local currency when travelling, but I think in this case it's best to travel with us dollars for the payment of the safari  (they will apply the correct and up to date exchange rate) (and not old bills, best with recent date on bills). Everything else we payed in shillings.
Wakanga have a load of different options for different budgets. You get what you pay for and I always ask people not to try and haggle prices way down, since the park fees are high, and the team has to be payed.
I would suggest to contact Carlson and Bartho for any queries, because they are just so lovely they will help you with anything they can!!!
Good luck travellers!!!

Unbelievable!
5/5

Everything was awesome. The city tour, the waterfalls in the Meru Park, the one-day safari in Ngorongoro and the accommodation. A luxury service with backpacker budget! Definitely I recommend them! Don't hesitate!

Unforgettable Safari Adventure in Tanzania
My recent safari tour through Tanzania's Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire National Parks was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the experience was seamless and immersive, thanks to the impeccable service provided by the tour company.
First and foremost, the choice of accommodations surpassed all expectations. The camps and lodges nestled within the heart of these pristine landscapes offered not only comfort but also an authentic connection to the wilderness. Each evening, as we gathered around the campfire, the sounds of the African night enveloped us, creating an ambiance that will stay with me forever.
A significant highlight of our journey was our guide, Andrew. His expertise and passion for the land and its inhabitants were evident from the start. Andrew's knowledge of the parks' ecosystems, coupled with his keen eye for wildlife, ensured that every moment spent on safari was filled with excitement and discovery. His ability to communicate clearly and efficiently kept our group organized and engaged throughout the adventure.
Moreover, the tour company's commitment to excellent communication was evident at every turn. From the initial booking process to our departure, communication channels remained open and responsive. Any questions or concerns were promptly addressed, allowing us to focus solely on the awe-inspiring experiences unfolding before us.
In conclusion, my safari tour through Tanzania was a journey of a lifetime, made possible by the exceptional service provided by the tour company, the unparalleled beauty of the national parks, and the expertise of our guide, Andrew. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone seeking an adventure that combines luxury, exploration, and a profound connection to nature.
Thank you to everyone involved for creating memories that will last a lifetime.

We were lucky to book our tour with this operator: value for money, quick responses during the planning stage and friendly people and comfortable Land Rover jeep with a cooler of goodies.

An amazing and seamless experience from the beginning to the end of the whole process.
5/5

Serengeti Wakanda ensured we had a trip of a lifetime. The whole experience was seamless from beginning to end - Starting with the quote process and having all my questions answered, I was impressed with the promptness of the responses from Aishwarya and her collaboration to make the tour customized to our needs; continuing to a relaxing and seamless tour; and ending with a very thoughtful personalized gifts and it has been a very good experience from beginning to end. Our tour took us to Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro (staying the majority of the time at Serengeti). An important factor to making a safari trip great is the tour guide. We were incredibly lucky to have Bashir as our guide! He knew the lay of the parks so well and had a deep understanding of animal patterns and behavior (which meant he knew where to take the jeep next, or tell us what to patiently watch out for!). He was also very persistent, which enabled us to see various animals. We stayed at some of the best locations during our trip including Sametu Camp in Serengeti (which was in the heard of the park) and Lion’s Paw in Ngorongoro. Serengeti Wakanda exceeded our expectations in every way!

Outstanding experience with serengeti wakanda tours
5/5

We have just had the most amazing 3 day safari with serengeti wakanda tours and our guide Bashir.
Everything ran smoothly from the start. The communication I had with Bartho was brilliant, he answered all my questions and put my mind at ease about everything.
We got picked up from our hotel in zanzibar and taken to the airport for our flight over to arusha. There we were met by Bashir who was super friendly and informative throughout.
We opted for doing a 3 day tour visiting 3 different national parks. Tarangiri, Ngorongoro and lake manyara. All 3 were very special in there own way. We got to see so many animals and Bashir never rushed us. During the day we were provided with a very tasty hot lunch and there was plenty of water, coke, beer and wine in the jeep.
At the end of both days we stayed at Marera view Lodge. It was so beautiful, the room was enormous and they grew their own produce on site which tated delicious. We also had an eagle owl spend the evenings near by which we took great enjoyment watching.
Overall I could not recommend serengeti wakanda tours enough, they really have given us some very special memories.
