One of the best experience in our life!
5/5

We did a 6 day camping safari with another couple who also happened to be from Canada too. OMG! I still dream about it sometimes!
Bartho, the owner was so attentive to details, he delivered everything he promised, from the first time we met him at the airport his personality was so amazing, he would tell us a lot of stories about Tanzania, the next day we had a town trip with him in Arusha and he would make sure we got a “rafiki price” and not a “mzungu price” in the markets and shops as he was bargaining really hard for the souvenirs we bought.
During the safari, Mood our guide had a lot of knowledge for the flora and fauna in the parks and he was so charming and funny. He always knew when to find the animals and most of the time we were always alone avoiding other crowded safari jeeps during the game drives. The camping equipment were new, sleeping bags were perfect and Dullah, the cook was really amazing, he cooked us a variety of delicious meals which was accompanied with a bottle of wine.
All in all everything was perfect and we would never ask for more!

Thank you WAKANDA for this breathtaking experience!

Highly recommend them!

5/5

Went on a 3 days tour to ngorongoro and Serengeti.
The driver gave us great angles of the animals. The price was the cheapest you can find including transportation, accommodation , and wine/beer in the safari.
Totally recommend!!

Memorable 4 days safari!
5/5

We are two Canadian volunteers working in Zanzibar and we got recommanded the 4 days Safaris with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris by our fellow volunteers.

Wow!!! Our experience was memorable. We saw so many animals, it seems like our guide knew were they were hiding! Massive packs of wild animals, big cats protecting their babies against hyena, cheetahs climbing on our jeep, a lovely lion wedding and roaring lions around our tents at night was more then we expected. We lived incredible moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

All of that was possible because of the professionalism of Serengeti Wakanda. The communications before the trip were fast and clear. The staff did the extra mile to pick us up after our landing. Everything they planed was respected and we even got more! With Mood as a guide and Meshark as our cook, we were fully satisfied and we laughed quite a lot. We received valuable information on the animals and the wild life in general. We had plenty of food and drinks for the entire 4 days.

Barto and Carlson, the owners, are running this business with great enthousiasm and a tremendous love for the animals. To the whole team of Serengeti Wakanda, we are thankful and we absolutely recommanded this tour operator to anyone who wants a reliable, unforgettable and entertaining safari.

Asante sana warafiki!

Wakanda team is just amazing!
5/5

Contacting Wakanda was easier compared to other companies that we were in contact with while comparing safaris, but we decided to stick with them as they were always fast to reply to our emails and answering all our questions with even more details and of course their offer was more appealing.
Then Bartho, the man in charge of our breathtaking experience, picked us up from the airport. Our plane was delayed for 4 hours but he was still there waiting for us with a big smile. We were so impressed with his English. He told us a lot about the country and the culture of the people in Tanzania. He took me and my girlfriend to try the local dish in Arusha town and it was so delicious.
During safari, Mood the guide was also very friendly to us and he knew when to talk and when not. He had a lot of knowledge about the animals, birds and trees in the parks. It was always exciting every day. Our chef Dullah prepared delicious vegetarian meals for us and there was always plenty of food, wine, juice, water, beers.
During our 6 day camping safari. Bartho offered 2 nights out of the 5 nights of camping to sleep in a lodge which was out of the itinerary and we were so grateful for that.
We would never forget these guys, Ahsante sana!

I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND WAKANDA!!

Great Safari!
5/5

I really at a great experience. The safari was incredible, our guide was perfect. We knew nearly everything. The food and the camps we stay were amazing. Also regardless of the safari, the agency has supported me and made everything possible. Doesn't matter if it was to buy a sim-card, habe a good day trip, help with bus booking etc.

I can only recommend Booking with them. There is really nothing bad I could say about my stay or their service.

Amazing experience
5/5

It was great pleasure to spend vacations with Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris. They usually respond to e-mails in less than 24 hours. From my arrival to Tanzania, when I met Carlson (my contact person), up to the very end I felt safe and very comfortable. They took care about everything. During the safari cook was preparing tasty meals. Everything was in line with earlier declarations. After 6 days of safari, before flight to home, I had one day in Arusha. Carlson provided for me EXTRA, ABSOLUTELY FREE CITY TOUR with very friendly and talkative guide. We visited local markets, ate local food on street and drove cheap motorcycle taxis. I strongly recommend Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris!

Magical experience, amazing service
5/5

We had a magical safari for 5 days with our great driver and cook Mood and Meschek. The attention and the service given by them under the lead of Barto was really a good experience. The communication with them about what to expect and how does the safari works was always clear an honest.
We were on a budget camping safari, were was nothing luxurious but as close to the nature as possible and was totally worth it. I highly recommend wakand tours if you are planning to come to Tanzania.
They are a new, young company with great service.
Let's support young entrepreneurs like Barto and Carson!

Thanks for the unforgettable expericen Wakanda tours!

Great Safari - exceeded expectations
5/5

This organization is very professional, but still very agile in the way they communicate and arrange things to your needs. From the beginning the communication was clear and fast. The safari (+ hotel, pick-up, etc) was all what it promised to be. If you go for a camping safari, bring some warm clothes as the altitude makes it chilly. Do not expect a lot of luxury on the campsite, which to us was only a plus as it was still very close to nature (zebra's directly behind our tents).
We can very much recommend this safari and Wakanda!

Amazing safari and wonderful experience with WAKANDA TOURS!
5/5

A friend and I booked the 4-day Camping Safari with the Serengeti Wakanda Team. From the first moment of contact we felt in good hands. Bartho, one of the company owners, answered all our questions immediately and was very friendly.
During the safari Trip, everything was well organised. We had everything what we need: good camping equipment, binoculars, plenty of drinks and food. No wish remained open.
Our guide Costa was able to convince with his expertise of the nature and wildlife in the national parks. He would also brief us every night after dinner on what the plan will be the next day of safari. But not only this, we also learned a lot of the culture and the people of Tanzania from him. He also had a good sense of humour, always making jokes which made our trip even more fun.
Our chef Dennis prepared every day delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner and took care that we had enough of everything.
At the first day of the Safari, my friend got sick. Costa and Bartho brought her to a doctor inside the serengeti and the whole crew took care of her. They were able to handle this situation perfectly. Thanks for this again!
All in all i would say that it was a perfect Safari Trip with amazing people and experiences. I definitely recommend the Serengeti Wakanda Team

Unbelievable experience
5/5

We booked a private safari for 5 days by Bartho (Serengeti, ngorongoro, lake Manyara, and Arusha) Direct from the start I felt very comfortable. Many companies, which I asked for an individual offer, didn’t listen or rejected my request or offered my an another one for much more money. Bartho has listened and offered everything like I wanted and made it possible. I could choose whatever I wanted and also change this very flexibel. All my questions were responded very quickly and kind. At the end we got an unbelievable tour with Malisa as our guide and driver. We had everything we need, water, wine, lunchboxes and place for charging our cameras and smartphones. Malisa has entertained us in very right way, he knew at what time it is better just to enjoy and not to talk and when was time for discussions. He explained everything about the parks, animals, birds and flowers with a huge knowledge. We also got a lot information about the culture and people in Tanzania. We had a lot of fun, because of Malisas humour and laughed a lot. He is a very experienced guy, but we didn’t have that feeling that he sees the parks every day and this is just business for him. He was highly motivated and also impressed as we were, but for us it was a first time and for Malisa this is a 10000 time. We saw a lot of boring guides in on other companies, So this is a huge difference here. We could share our passion for animals with our guide and highly appreciated that Malisa were very “right in his mindset” regarding the animals. He was respectful to them, and we were happy to see the animals in a free nature. Other companies were not so respectful they were hunting the lion on the road with their cars, very sad to see. In total - thanks a lot Bartho & Melisa for this great experience. We will keep this in our hearts!
