Excellent service
My friends and I had the most amazing trip in Tanzania. We were 7 of us, traveling to Tanzania for the first time. We had 11 days bush to beach adventure, and it was the best experience ever.
Everything was planned to perfection. We will be coming back soon

Amazing safari in Tanzania
Our eyes, our minds, our hearts have been changed forever after a safari in Tanzania. We had an experience of a lifetime and I have Mary and Gilbert to thank. They worked with us every step of the way in planning an itinerary, reserving hotels, and even the cultural tours that we were very interested in. The guide Hamza was awesome!!! Very knowledgeable about the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti and very patient. He found the Big 5 for us and we were up close and personal with these beautiful creatures. I can wait to return to Tanzania and my next safari!!!
I would highly recommend this safari company if you are planning a trip to Tanzania.

Pure Professionalism and Empathy guides
We booked this trip in 2019 and looked so much forward to it but unfortunately, we postponed because of Covid-19 and finally travelled in 2021. I wanted to share with you how professional Gilmag Safaris handled everything from booking to the postponement of this trip. They were very quick in responding to every question I had. From booking to tours end, we were very impressed with the level of professionalism and attention to detail. As I had never booked a guided tour before, I read all the reviews of the various tour groups, but ultimately chose Gilmag Safaris because of the private tour option for our family group of young children and great reviews. Maguke gave us suggestions that proved invaluable and she was a pleasure to work with. It was an amazing experience and more than what I paid for with Gilmag Safaris. Everything I wanted to see and photograph were covered, especially our trip to Lake Eyasi was an eye opener about the Hadzabe people and Datoga tribe! Our tour guide Gilbert went above and beyond to make sure that everything that we wanted was shown as planned. Those wonderful sunset picnics in Serengeti at a riverbank were exceptional. Gilbert’s knowledge of the area was seemingly endless, answering all kinds of questions and imparting a wealth of information. When experiencing such breathtaking and awe-inspiring sights, your mind wanders to all kinds of topics, of which Gilbert was happy to participate in. This trip was INCREDIBLE! I cannot overstate how happy we were with the trip overall, but especially with our tour guide, Gilbert. Shout out to Gilbert, Maguke and the team!!!
Great experience, fair pricing and excellent services.
Timely and effective communication, excellent services definitely live up to their expectations.

5 Star Safari
We had great pleasure travelling with Gilmag Safaris. Our trip was customized by Lillian. She was very responsive and efficient. Upon arrival in Tanzania, we were met by Mary and guide Nickson. Thereafter, we drove to Arusha and stayed at Gran Melia, a true gem in Tanzania.
We loved our 5 star accommodation and food was excellent everywhere. The safari itself was awesome and unforgettable. We visited Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Finally we flew to Zanzibar from Arusha. Every logistics was perfectly organized and planned.
Thank you Gilmag safaris for this trip of a lifetime, very memorable. We are planning to be back and will definitely book with you again.

Five Star With Gilmag Safaris
Gilmag Safaris were very helpful in planning our safari, giving us advice on where to stay, where to go. Mary was very well organized from start to end. She made our whole adventure very comfortable. We wanted a private safari and it came with a clean 4X4 Land Cruiser.
Our guide Nickson was very interesting and knowledgeable. Our favourite place was Ndutu. We saw lots of young wildebeests being born.
If anyone is looking for a Safari company in Tanzania, then choose Gilmag Safaris. We highly recommend their excellent service.

Once in a lifetime experience
Gilbert was our tour guide for the most memorable 10 days of our lives.
Gilbert was an amazing guide, super professional and such a lovely guy and was one of the best drivers we have ever had. We have to navigate some extremely treacherous roads and his handling of the vehicle was outstanding.
His English is also fantastic and his knowledge and experience was second to none. I can’t wait to come back.
Great experience and service
Great time. Great service.
There are over 1000 (maybe 2000) safari tour groups to chose from which made it stressful and time consuming to pick one for us. I'm so glad we landed on Glimag and, if lucky to return, would go straight back to this company.
Mary, the point person in planning your trip, provided incredibly fast responses to all inquiries and detailed itinerary. I felt absolutely confident that she had things organized.
We did a 3 night, 4 day safari and they successfully packed in many sites: Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, lake Manyara. Our driver was Nickson who was wonderful, attentive to our needs and totally reliable. He knew his way around all the sites and was clearly connected with all the other drivers in the park so could quickly zoom in on rare animal sightings. Staying at Eileen's Tree Inn and our tented camp also were great choices for my family of 4.

Trustworthy and competent, Gilmag Safari did an excellent job, and our guide Nickson was the best!
I found Gilmag Safari through this website. Given their high score and several reviews by satisfied customers, decided to contact them. Through our communications, they remained professional and competent. Everything worked out without a glitch and everyone in our small group was very satisfied. Our guide Nickson deserves a special thanks for his skills, stamina, as well as his friendliness.

Best Business Trip
Four of my friends and i visited Tanzania with Gilmag Safaris. Mary and her crew offered us the most incredible trip one can ever dream of. We started with a climb of Kilimanjaro. Gilmag has some of the best mountain guides and porters. We all reached the peak and were awarded with achievement certificates.
After a successful climb, we began our 7 days safari which was equally enjoyable. Ngorongoro crater was awesome. We saw lots of animals, including the rare black rhino. Serengeti was just breathtaking, with millions of wildebeests and large prides of lions. Our guide, Gilbert was the best. With his help, we managed to see all the big 5.
Thank you so much Gilmag for making our dream a reality. It took us years to save up for this trip and you made it worthwhile. We give you 7*..
