Excellent, attentive and with a good heart.
Five tourists from Latvia went on a two-day safari to Mikumi National Park with Safari Moja Matata. The adventure was surreal. We saw elephants, antelopes, water buffalo, zebras, giraffes up close. So that we could see lions up close, Matata did everything to make our dream come true. Matata is very tolerant and has a good heart. We highly recommend Safari Moja Matata.

Excellent
Richard our driver provided excellent services to us, spanning from being a skilled tour guide and so explaining the contextual background of everything we saw on the safari, to being considerate with the travellers and planning out everything meticulously. I would rate this trip 5/5, and recommend Richard to accompany and guide your trip.

Great Two Week Safari
We had a wonderful time with our guide/driver, Richard, and Safari Moja Matata. We booked a personalised two-week trip in Tanzania that incorporated the northern safari circuit alongside some more unusual destinations, including Rubondo Island and the Mahale Mountains, to see chimpanzees.
We couldn't have asked for better wildlife experiences. We had some incredible sightings, including serval, cheetah, plenty of leopards, and even an aardwolf.
A guide/driver, Richard, really added to our trip. He was a lovely, happy, accommodating man, and we thoroughly enjoyed his company. He was as enthusiastic and interested in all the wildlife as we were and did a great job driving the safari vehicle and ensuring good views both by eye and for photography. He was ethical and easy-going, a perfect combination.
Thank you to Safari Moja Matata and to Richard for a great trip.
All the best from Martin and Will.

Helpful ,caring and tried his hardest to let us get the full experience
I went on a 4 day safari with a group of 7 friends
Amazing value for money, we got the full safari experience without spending too much money. The communication was good, driver picked us up when planned and during our safari our guide talked through the entire itinerary. We saw most animals we wanted to see, and our guide tried his hardest to see the lions and leopards. All in all it was an amazing, unforgettable experience and I would recommend it to everyone.
Amazing guide
Leopard is a truly wonderful person. We spent four days on safari with him in Nyerere National Park, and everything was absolutely amazing.
We were a group of four adults and four children, and he was attentive to everyone's needs. He is kind, helpful, and the perfect safari guide—far beyond anything we could have expected.
From our very first contact while we were still in Italy, I knew he was someone special and the right person to choose.
Thanks to him, we managed to see all the animals in the park. Even though we were already running very late to leave the park, he turned back because he had been told where a leopard had been spotted. He did it just to make our children happy, and that meant so much to us.
I highly recommend him because he is truly one of a kind. Even though our children don't speak English fluently, they became very attached to him.
Thank you for everything, Leo!

Unforgettable Safary
We had an unforgettable 4-day safari! We were a group of **4 adults and 4 children**, and our guide was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to everyone, especially the kids. He made them feel comfortable and involved throughout the entire experience.
We were lucky enough to see so many amazing animals, including a **leopard**, which was definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
Our guide was always friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. More than that, he made us feel like we were on safari with a friend, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable and authentic.
Everything was perfectly organized, the landscapes were breathtaking, and we will cherish these memories forever. If you're looking for an unforgettable safari with an outstanding guide, we highly recommend it. **A truly top-class experience!**

Perfectly organized safari with a great guide!!

Die Tour wurde von Leopard perfekt organisiert, insbesondere wurde auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und diese sinnvoll durch Vorschläge ergänzt oder angepasst, etwa durch den Besuch eines Masai-Dorfes oder die Anpassung der route, um übermäßige Fahrzeiwn zu vermeiden. Wir besuchten Nyerere, Mikumi und Udzungwa. Dabei wurde auch auf Änderungswünsche eingegangen, sodass auch spontanen Interessen nachgegangen werden konnte, zum Beispiel eine Walking-Safari anstelle einer klassischen Driving-Safari an einem der 7 Tage. Unser Guide Sebastian war ebenfalls super. Wir konnten gute Gespräche führen, sehr gut über die Tierwelt lernen und auch kulturell in das Land eingeführt. Zudem waren die Fahrten angenehm und alle Safaris durchweg spektakulär und von großem Respekt der Natur gegenüber gekennzeichnet.
Das positive Bild erstreckt sich weiter auf alle Personen zu denen wir in den Unterkünften, Restaurants und weiteren Aktivitäten Kontakt hatten. Wir haben die Budget Variante gewählt und würden dies wieder tun, da dadurch das eintauchen in die lokalen Kulturen besonders gut möglich war. Alle Zimmer und Mahlzeiten waren dabei durchweg gut.
Alles in allem eine sehr schöne und empfehlenswerte Safari!
The tour was perfectly organized by Leopard. In particular, they catered closely to our wishes, thoughtfully complementing and adjusting them with great suggestions—such as visiting a Maasai village or tweaking the route to avoid excessive driving times. We visited Nyerere, Mikumi, and Udzungwa. They were also very flexible with changes, allowing us to pursue spontaneous interests, like opting for a walking safari instead of a classic game drive on one of the 7 days.
Our guide, Sebastian, was also fantastic. We had great conversations, learned a lot about the wildlife, and received a wonderful introduction to the local culture. In addition, the drives were pleasant, and all the safaris were consistently spectacular and marked by deep respect for nature.
This positive impression extended to everyone we encountered at the accommodations, restaurants, and during other activities. We chose the budget option and would gladly do so again, as it made immersing ourselves in the local culture especially easy. All the rooms and meals were consistently good.
All in all, a wonderful safari that we highly recommend!
