An unforgettable 2026 Spring Festival holiday~~
We went to Tanzania for the Spring Festival in February 2026 and contacted Gilmag Safaris about half a year in advance. The contact person was Chinese, so the communication was very convenient and friendly, providing 100% sincerity and allowing us to confidently book this trip.
For 6 days and 5 nights, our guide Waziri was knowledgeable, diligent, and cautious. Every time he stopped the car, he talked about the plants, animals, and landforms here, making our trip more meaningful. He almost allowed us to see all the animals, which was really exciting. Every day was full of expectations and surprises.
I am very willing to recommend Gilmag to my friends around me. It has a high cost performance ratio and provides a full experience. I suggest that you try to leave early in the morning when camping. The probability of seeing feline animals in the morning will be much higher, and you may even see hunting!

Amazing experience
First of all, the communication through the whole journey was smoothly and pleasant. They arranged everything very well and planned my accommodation and agenda ahead, which was proved to be reasonable. Secondly, my guide Eric, he was amazing in terms of finding animals in the wild. He’s very familiar with all those national parks that I went. Finally in the hotels that we selected together were very nice and I was satisfying about the whole journey.

5 Stars for Gilmag Safari! Heartfelt Thanks to Gody and Felix
Our recent trip to Tanzania proved that the glowing 5-star reviews for Gilmag Safari are absolutely legitimate., from planning to execution.
Our local guide, Godlistens (Gody): Gody is a phenomenal, 5-star guide. He prioritized our safety while consistently positioning us for incredible, close-up wildlife views. As a bird enthusiast with still much to learn, I am impressed by his expertise; he is a walking offline Wikipedia who patiently answered all our repeated questions. Upon request, he also shared fascinating stories that gave us meaningful insights into Tanzania's beautiful culture and local customs.
Seamless Coordination by Felix: A huge shout-out to Felix for his exceptionally prompt responses during the planning stages and throughout the trip. He patiently addressed every minor detail we raised and even went the extra mile to coordinate a birthday cake and celebration for my friend.
Outstanding Accommodations: We spent most of our stay at Lemala Lodges, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The food, service, and overall comfort made us feel entirely welcome and safe. The outdoor showers were a spectacular highlight!
Tip for Future Travelers: If you do not fancy taking a dip in the water, we suggest skipping the Chemka Hotspring. While the scenery is beautiful, it is a very long drive, and the local guards can be overly pushy for tips.
Thank you, Gilmag Safari, for an extraordinary journey. We cannot recommend Gody and Felix highly enough!

an extraordinary experience
We choose Gilmag to arrange our graduation travel in Tanzania. During 8 days, we toured around Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti, enjoying amazing scenery we've never seen before. Our guide Eric is experienced in finding wildlife and handling emergencies, enabling us to see all Big Five. Besides, the accomodation is quite good, giving us nice sleep and delicious meals.

This is absolutely wonderful local tour agency! Our guide was incredibly professional, we enjoyed every single day of our 5-day itinerary and got to see all the wild animals we hoped to see. The camp we stayed at each night also had lovely surroundings, and all the staff members were so warm and welcoming. Next time I visit Tanzania, I will definitely book with this agency again!
