High quality safari trip provider to see the best spots in Tanzania
Firstly, we spent quite a bit of time reviewing and messaging various safari companies. But the moment we spoke to Jane at Brilliant Safari we knew we were in safe hands.
The company is young relative to other providers hence they have fewer reviews, but don't let that put you off at all.
Their professionalism, communication, quality of their vehicles and the guide we had were superb. I have done quite a lot of safari trips before but they arranged this trip perfectly.
They also added some really nice touches to the trip like giving us matching safari hats to commence, providing plenty of snacks and a cool box full of water and soft drinks that lasted us throughout the trip.
Gabriel, our guide, was hugely experienced and very knowledgeable. We felt like we were in safe hands straight away and he seemed to understand behavioural aspects of the animal's in such a way that we stayed for longer in certain situations to catch more action.
The communication with Jane was excellent throughout and they even dropped us back at Kilimanjaro airport to help us on our flight out of Tanzania.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY FOR YOUR SAFARI ADVENTURE. THEY WERE SIMPLY AMAZING.

A great safari well fitted for us and with a great guide !
We were 3 French friends coming to Tanzania and we were hesitating between several safari companies just a few days before beginning our trip. The responsiveness of Jane and the program she proposed us made us choose Brillant Adventures and Safaris and we definitely don't regret it !!
We chose the 5 days program, including Tarangire Park, Manyara Lake, Serengeti Park and Ngorongoro Crater and it was perfect for us ! The night spent inside the Serengeti Park was very impressive ! During the 5 days, we saw a lot of different animals, and especially the big 5 !! Our guide, Pascal, was great ! He speaks English and French so it was really convenient for us. He was very nice and we could feel that he has been a safari guide for several years.
So thanks again to Jane and Pascal, it will be an experience we won't forget !!

Brilliant Adventures & Safaris really delivered a brilliant holidays to my family!
I picked this tour operator because I liked them since the start: the way they dealt with me was always welcoming, professional, responsive and not at all pushy. I felt they were embracing my excitement for the trip, they were always patient with all my queries and the exchanges were just right: not too many not too little. Never I felt I doubt them and since my arrival I really liked the way they accompanied us through the journey. Our guide, Joshua, was a good driver, a great animal guide and a pleasant person to spend all day with during four amazing days.
The package we paid was money well spent and with only compliments for the tour operator, the staff and the planning.
Having described all the good in the organization, I will end by saying that Tanzania is an awesome place with awesome people living in. The beauty of the land is breathtaking and seeing such a diversity of wild animals is a dream came true.
Thank you Julieth and Joshua for all your hard work in enabling us having a perfect holidays.
Kudos!

Can't be better, excellent experience , awesome Guide, great hotels and awesome hospitality!!!
I am very glad we found this company. Since the very beginning Julieth , the first person we had contact with was very good, explained every thing in details and gave some good options. All of them were very good. Our Guide, Joshua, was just great! We did a five day Safari trough Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti He didn't just drove us around, he new a lot of the parks , history , the environment , animal behaviors and great histories about the animals . Beyond that he was very polite, attentive and didn't rest until he showed us the big 5 and a lot more. An unstoppable guy. The car was very comfortable ( for an off road for sure), very clean and cold beverages, water and snacks in the car. During the Safari we had good lunch at great places. The experience sleeping in tends inside the park was just great. If you are thinking to do a Safari in Tanzania, those are the guys!!!!

A great tour operator
Brilliant Safaris organized a perfect 6-day safari for us. It started with the booking, where Julieth was so reactive and helpful and spent several days going through various changes for us. We were given a great level of information to help us with the choice of lodges and trip schedule. Then, from the moment we arrived to Kilimandjaro, we were taken in charge by our amazing guide, Joshua. He really made our safari perfect. Joshua is so nice, extremely knowledgeable, a great driver, knows everyone in Serengeti and was always able to find the best wild life scenes for us. The tour was organized for 2 people, and we were in a super comfortable jeep, with much more leg space than in the other jeeps we were seeing during the game drives. Value for money was super competitive. We will absolutely go with Brilliant Safaris again if we ever go back to Tanzania.

Reliable travel agent who perfectly organized our successful three week tour.
Brilliant Safaris professionally arranged a private three week tour visiting Selous (Nyerere), Mikumi, Serengeti (migration), Ngorongoro and Tarangire. We are two serious amateur photographers and experienced travellers. The trip was perfectly organized. Our very friendly driver guides (one for the South, Hassan, another for the North, Gabriel) perfectly understood our specific needs. They were patient, flexible and very knowledgeable about the terrain and wildlife. They always knew where to find what we were looking for. The person responsible at Brilliant (Jane) was reachable each time when needed and responsive, in daily contact with the driver guides. The lodges and camps (mid-range, according to our request) were well chosen, nice and comfortable and the car was well adapted for photography. The price of the trip was reasonable considering the benefits, reliability and service. We will certainly choose Brilliant Safaris again when we return to Tanzania. I can only recommend.

Amazing!
Brilliant adventures and Safaris gave us an incredible experience. Julieth was very professional and accomodating and provided us a seamless itinerary based on our requests. My sister and I booked a 6 day safari and we couldn't be happier with chosing this company. From the lovely accomodations, airport pick-up and drop-off, and our guide it was truly well-planned. Osbert, our safari guide, was amazing! He went above and beyond with everything and had a wealth of knowledge. You could tell he has a passion for wildlife. Please don't hesitate on choosing them for your safari experience!

Unforgettable safari
From the first email with Jane, Brilliant Adventures and Safaris could not have been more helpful. Jane was very responsive and helped us to plan a holiday exactly to our needs, being incredibly flexible to our changing flight times and ensuring that we would get the most out of our time on safari. Jane was also able to help with booking flights, accommodation, transfers and tours on Zanzibar which was an added bonus. Our safari itself was amazing, our guide Bony was very exprienced and knowledgable as well as being great company, he was very flexible and adapted to our preferences as well as making many recommendations to ensure we had the best time and saw as many animals as possible. The safari vehicle was fabulous with a roof which could be removed for better viewing and a fridge with cold drinks and snacks. The accommodation was all very comfortable and the food was delicious, including our lunches each day on safari. We had a truly unforgettable time and would love to return one day. I cannot thank Jane and Bony enough for everything they did for us and would highly recommend Brilliant Adventures and Safaris to anyone considering a holiday in Tanzania

Our guide Bony was friendly, knowledgeable, and did everything possible to make our trip the most memorable and fantastic trip ever! Each day was an adventure and the safari lunches provided were top class also!

Very professional, friendly, easy to communicate with & quick to respond to emails.
My husband and I went on safari to Tanzania in February 2023 for our honeymoon. We booked directly with Brilliant Adventures and Safaris. We were a little nervous booking directly and not booking through a travel agent, however, we were delighted with their service, and would highly recommend them. Our tour guide Joshua was friendly, professionally and very knowledgeable, and we had the most wonderful safari that we could wish for.
Brilliant Adventures and Safaris were great to deal with, they were very welcoming and made our trip very special. We would not hesitate to recommend Brilliant Adventures and Safaris.
