Surpassed every expectation!
We booked a 7 day safari in the higher-mid range, private, for 2 people. I will limit my review to the actual service Serengeti Wakanda provides, as they are obviously a Safari agency and some services (logistics, safari guide & game drives) they provide directly, others they use partners (acommodation).
Their service is very good, any logistics issue, any problem, and they try to fix and help out. They will be there ALL the way during your trip and they will not fail. Not once did we feel left out, and this is important.
The best part of their service is their amazing guides. We had the luck of getting Max, a very knowledgeable and fun person, who went way, way out of his way to deliver what was in our expectations and much, much more. We left with wonderful experiences we could've only have dreamt, all thanks to Max. The difference between having a worthy guide like him elevates the trip to an entirely new level. Believe me, the things we saw would not have been possible had Max not put all the work he put in.
I can only recommend Serengeti Wakanda. All my friends looking to plan a Safari are getting their direct number from me.
Thank you Wakanda.

Amazing safari experience!
I can strongly recommend serengeti wakanda to anyone looking for an amazing safari experience in Tanzania!
I did a 5 day safari including Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Everything was perfect. Bartho was very helpful organizing the safari for us, Andrew was the best guide ever and Dullah made us amazing food every day.
We saw all the animals, beautiful nature and stunning sunrises. Accomandation was great and felt safe.
Asante sana to the whole team! x

Great value and hassle-free experience
I’ve been dreaming of going on a safari forever and this trip exceeded my expectations! Went on a 5 day safari to 4 parks, so was able to see all that the region has to offer. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the animals and their whereabouts so we saw the big 5 and others in abundance. We had a cook with us who was very talented and the fresh meals were very large and much more appealing than the box lunches other groups had. Relaxing with a few beers around the campfire after a long day in the car was also very fun and unique to this tour. Bartho was very responsive and accommodating, which made this last minute trip for me possible. Being picked up from the airport and having lodging included before and after the trip was very convenient. Overall this trip was fantastic and I’m very glad I booked with Serengeti Wakanda!

Service-orientated, communicative, highly knowledgeable and kind
I have just completed an 11-day safari adventure with Serengeti Wakanda. It was undoubtedly the best holiday of my life and I cannot recommend this company enough.
The trip was for my 30th birthday and included 14 people. I sent inquiries to six tour companies with excellent customer reviews. I received custom itineraries from four of them and decided to go with Serengeti Wakanda based on the price, quality and depth of detail in the itinerary, and great responsiveness to follow up questions. Big thanks to Goodluck in the booking office for being a terrific planner and communicator!
From the moment we landed to the moment we took off, we felt well taken care of. Serengeti Wakanda coordinated transportation to/from the airport and a hotel in Arusha for the nights before and after the safari. They also selected and booked the camps where we stayed within the parks, all of which were fantastic.
Our guides (Andrew and Elli) picked us up from the hotel and remained with us for the duration of our experience, starting with a day trip to Materuni waterfalls and a chance to experience small scale coffee production in the nearby village. Over the course of the next 10 days, we visited Tarangire NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorogoro Conservation Area (Ndutu and Ngorogoro Crater), and Lake Manyara NP.
Andrew (Senior Guide) demonstrated a profound understanding of animal behavior, encyclopedic knowledge of everything we encountered, and a mental map of the parks that was truly remarkable. His 11 years of experience as a guide were evident. He correctly predicted animal movements to put us in position for some incredible shots before other jeeps (actually, specialized Toyota Landcruisers) which were competing for the best view. He was able to answer every question we had (and we had a lot) about the animals, environment, weather, and the cultures of Tanzania.
Elli (Junior Guide) brought a similarly impressive knowledge base and an infectious positivity which left us all feeling like he was a close friend by the end of the journey. His 7 years of experience as a guide ensured that no matter which jeep I rode in for the day (Andrew's or Elli's) I was sure to have a great experience.
I have never before been so impressed by the combination of professionalism and personability we experienced with our two guides and I would recommend them 100 times out of 100.
During our time in the parks we managed to see wildebeests and zebras in the (tens of) thousands on the Great Migration (during calving season in Southern Serengeti), the Big Five (lions, leopards, buffalos, rhinos, elephants), cheetahs, giraffes, gazelles, hyenas, jackals, baboons and dozens of other animals in some of the best protected natural spaces remaining on the planet. At the end of the trip, our group tallied over 60 different animals, many of which we saw in large numbers.
In addition to our fantastic guides, Serengeti Wakanda stood out from its competitors with its vehicles and the lunches they provided. We had newer model jeeps with outlets in each seat and they provided a Mi-Fi device to provide wi-fi if we wanted it. Perhaps the most evident differentiator though was lunch. While the vast majority of other groups were provided packed cold lunches (e.g. sandwiches), Serengeti Wakanda coordinated with our camps to have hot lunches (e.g. rice with chicken/beef, lentils) prepared in the morning and kept in insulated pots in the back of the jeep until lunch time. They kindly catered to vegetarians and allergies in the group and the food consistently exceeded our expectations.
This was a once in a lifetime trip and I am grateful to Serengeti Wakanda for exceptional planning and execution.

Exceptional Tanzania Safari Experience A Trip to Remember!
Our recent Tanzania safari was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to the incredible team that made every moment special. From the moment we inquired about the tour, Mr. Good Luck ensured a seamless booking process with his prompt responses and excellent organization. His attention to detail made the entire trip stress-free and enjoyable.
A special thank you to our tour guide, Mr. Bashir, whose expertise and deep knowledge of the wildlife made our safari truly unforgettable. His fine skills in spotting animals, from the elusive big cats to the majestic elephants, ensured that we experienced the very best of Tanzania’s breathtaking wilderness.
And what’s a great adventure without great food? Mr. Dulah, the best chef, treated us to warm, delicious meals every day, making sure we were well-fed and energized throughout our journey. His culinary skills added an extra layer of comfort to our trip.
Traveling with my wife and children, I was initially concerned about the challenges of a safari, but the entire team went above and beyond to make our experience comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. The hospitality, organization, and warmth we received made this trip truly unforgettable.
I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone looking for a well-planned, exciting, and family-friendly adventure. Thank you once again to Mr. Good Luck, Mr. Bashir, and Mr. Dulah for making this a once-in-a-lifetime journey.

An unforgettable journey!
For our first trip to Tanzania, we chose Serengeti Wakanda, after reading the countless positive reviews and seeing the availability shown right from the start by our correspondent Beatrice.
Well, what can I say, this trip was incredible, made perfect and unforgettable by Edward, our wonderful guide. The latter speaks English very well, was always very helpful, cheerful, ready to laugh with us, to answer our countless questions with kindness and professionalism. He was able to make us live this experience in the best possible way, satisfying our every desire (He also took us to visit a Masai village, local markets and to a structure where they explained to us how typical Tanzanian stones are extracted and worked).
Not to be taken for granted, he is very good and expert at driving on particularly bumpy and muddy roads, he knows every map and timing by heart and during the safaris he always gave his all to let us see as many animals as possible up close… he even helped a driver stuck in the mud, because as he taught us what really matters is: Hakuna Matata!
Safaris in Tanzania are really worth it (it's not our first experience in Africa, but this one is worth gold!), as is traveling with Wakanda: beautiful facilities, spectacular food (they have omnivorous and also vegetarian and vegan options) prepared by the staff chefs (even for picnics), jeeps that are always clean and fully equipped with water, always fresh drinks, Wifi and sockets... what more could you ask for?
We carry Edward, Serengeti Wakanda and all of Tanzania in our hearts... so much so that we will return in August!
Ahsante sana Tanzania, Jambo Jambo!

A fantastic company that looked after every aspect of our tour from start to end.
We have just returned from a 4-day safari booked with Serengeti Wakanda and we really cannot rate them highly enough. From booking, they kept in touch and up-to-date with the travel plan, from collecting us from our hotel in Zanzibar through to our guide meeting us in Tanzania. The tour was faultless and the quality of the accommodation exceptional, especially the Signature Serengeti Luxury Tented camp. The camp itself was beautifully built and very sympathetic to the environment, predominantly powered by solar. But it was the fantastic staff that really made it such a fabulous stay. The camp provided our picnics for two days of our safari tours and it was very good food. Wakanda arranged a balloon safari for us, which is an incredible extra and a real bonus of the whole trip. But the aspect that made our tour so enjoyable was out fantastic guide, Landolin, who had such a depth of knowledge of the animals, and history of the region, we felt we were learning so much with every conversation. He clearly cared a great deal and had a great deal of pride for his work. Thank you to all the team - it was a fantastic trip with memories that we will treasure for a long time to come.

Experience of a lifetime
We start our review with a big thank you to Serengeti Wakanda Safari Tours. That was the most amazing experience. This company is very reliable. Booking the tour was very easy with Aishwarya as she is very courteous, pleasant and patient. She accommodated our needs and booked the best lodging with great food and nice staff. She assigned an awesome guide/driver Felix. Felix made sure we see all the Big 5, see the migration and taught us how each animal survives in the wild and more. Felix ensured that our experience was memorable. He let us know the plan for the day. He always asked what we would like to see or do so he could tailor the days plan for us. He makes sure the picnic breakfast and lunch was warm and we enjoyed the variety of food. He constantly checks if we are comfortable and if there was anything else we need before we rest for the night. Felix is a Big 5: Funny, knowledgeable, good driver, has good eyesight and just an amazing person. Shoutout to him, Aishwarya and the rest of the Serengeti Wakanda Safari tours staff. We highly recommend this company.

Unforgettable!
From beginning to end Serengeti Wakanda made our safari trip an unforgettable experience. Communicating with Ushma was easy as we began to plan for our trip. She rearranged our itinerary and provided tips on how to get the most out of our budget and time frame. Our guide Felix was not only an expert on finding the animals (and birds!) but provided such wonderful insight and information about Tanzania’s beautiful country and culture. He started out as our guide but at the end of 5 days became our Rafiki who we will never forget! If you plan on budget camping make sure to bring your appetite because our chef prepared breakfast lunch and dinners fresh, and so much of it! Thank you to Serengeti Wakanda for all your hard work and kindness, we can’t wait to see you again!
