Mansoor was caring, kind and strongly motivated!
My recent safari with Mansoor was nothing short of extraordinary. Set in the heart of the Tanzanian wilderness, the journey was a mesmerizing exploration of nature's beauty. The parks were hardy visited - unlike the Serengeti or the Ngorongoro...
Our knowledgeable guide ensured close encounters with the lots of wild animals, allowing us to witness lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and lots more in their natural habitat.
If you're in search of an inspiring journey through the wild, this safari with African Pangolin Safari is the ideal choice.

very professional operator and excellent driver
We did a 4-day safari between the Mikuni and Selous parks
We had a great time with the operator in organizing the tour, which included long car transfers (unfortunately it was not possible to go from Mikuni directly to Selous but it was always necessary to base ourselves in Dar).
The agency guide, Yunus, was very kind and professional and very good at spotting animals. Also due to the season, we didn't see much wildlife at Selous, but the landscape and the tour we were given still thrilled us.
Decent lodge accommodation and very competitive prices.

Reliable, friendly and very professional with a lot of expertise
My partner and I had the pleasure of embarking on a 6-day private safari adventure in Tanzania, exploring the incredible wildlife and landscapes of Mikumi National Park, Ruaha National Park, and Udzwunga National Park with African Pangolin Safaris. What made this experience truly exceptional was our outstanding guide, Mansoor. His expertise was great. With his ability to spot animals, we had a chance of seeing elephants, lions, giraffes, buffalos and many others. We even saw leopards on for days in a row, which is really rare. He also gave us interesting background information on the country, people, culture and wildlife in general.
We drove in a nice and really new Toyota Landcruiser, the perfect safari car. Food was included and tasted good, we had a fridge in the car so there was cooled water all the time. you can book different levels of accommodation depending on your budget. we chose basic accommodation and the rooms were okay, mosquito nets were always included.
The above mentioned national parks are really worth a visit as they are less crowded then the northern counterparts (Serengeti for example). We liked Ruaha NP best even though it takes a lot of time to get from A to B in Tanzania. The roads were good but there are lots of trucks on the road. Udzwunga NP is good for hiking, we did a 14km circuit- there are even possibilities of hiking for multiple days.
So if you want to explore Tanzania’s wildlife and you are looking for a nice, friendly and reliable tour operator we warmly recommend to choose African Pangolin Safaris.

African Pangolin Safaris Team are Amazing, Knowlegeable, Professional, Detail, Organizing
The whole team –Tour guides/drivers (Mansoor, Victor, Lazaro) did an amazing job (detail, organize, and very professional) and special thanks to our awesome driver /tour guide Victor. Victor has magically eyesight (an eagle eye) to spot the animals and is extremely knowledgeable of wildlife habitat. This very experience team of African Pangolin Safaris (tour guides/ drivers) target the areas of the park that have greatest concentration of games.
In Northern Serengeti, we had witness one of the world’s greatest natural spectacles: the annual migration in full swing with spectacular river crossings, an adrenaline-pumping spectacle you’ll never forget.
Beyond the migration, I’ve had plenty of other magic moments such as spying a pride of lions feasting on a kill, watching Hyenas fight over scavenged leftovers, waking up in the middle of the night and unzipping my tent to see hundred eyes of wildebeests
We also saw a male lion with his beautiful big mane blowing in the wind.
We will never forget this Safari and definitely we will be back. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.

A MUST GO ONCE IN A LIFETIME EXPERIENCE!!!
JAMBO!!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! we did the 10 Days Safari Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara NP, Serengeti NP and Ngorongoro Crater – Private Safari Tour. SOOO worth it!!! We saw all Big 5 and 6 if you include the Cheetah! Mansoor, Victor and Lasaro were all fantastic guides. If i could give 11 stars i absolutely would!!! We had 3 land cruisers (16 pax), and Victor (Group Ooone) was our driver/tour guide. Total Ace and he knew so much about the wildlife (birds and animals), culture, histories. We called him Carrot Eyes b/c he can spot animals from such a major distance and pointed out animals to us to capture photos/videos. Truly an unforgettable experience. We saw the hunt and after kill, and many many animals so upclose, i could have prolly stuck my arm out the window and pet a lion or two. Victor ensured that we got an experience we would never forget. I plan to take another tour in the future, and would definitely recommend African Pangolin Safaris. ASANTE SANA VICTOR, MANSOOR AND LASARO FOR TAKING CARE OF OUR GROUP SO WELL AND WE ARE SO BLESSED THAT WE SAW ALL BIG 5 AND HAD SUCH AN UNFORGETTABLE AND AMAZING EXPERIENCE.

Our experience in the southern circuit of Tanzania was far beyond expectations!
I had a wonderful experience in the south of Tanzania visiting 3 National Parks (including the first two largest parks of Tanzania) + the Isimila archeological site. From the very beggining African Pangolin Safaris proved to be an extremely professional and dedicated company. The booking process was very easy and our guide, Mansoor Mohamed, was probably the best guide I could ask for: extremely kind, with a lot of common sense and a very pleasant man to be around with. He can provide you with a huge amount of information about the african wildlife and I assure you he will give his best to make your safari the most beautiful experience of your life. I can’t wait untill we will meet again for another great adventure into the bush.

Best safari experience in Tanzania
We had a great time. Our driver YUNUS was very kind and nice. He made our experience as a couple unique. Enterprising in research, but at the same time extremely respectful of nature and animals. Impeccable organization and correctness compared to what was anticipated. The result was above expectations!

Professional and Respectful
The tour operator Mansoor was very professional right from the beginning. He walked me the entire reservation, provided me with answers to my questions promptly and he made sure we got exactly what we were looking for despite making our reservations last minute. Our tour guide aka driver Mr Superman was the best. He was very professional, respectful and knowledgeable of animals. He went above and beyond and made every efforts to drive us all day to ensure we see all animals especially the BIG 4. I will highly recommend this company and huge THANK YOU TO YOU MANSOOR AND MR MICHAEL.
