Our Safari Soles tour operator was absolutely exceptional
Our Tanzania safari was truly a dream come true for my wife and I, my brother in law and sister in law. From the very beginning, the communication with our tour operator was excellent. They were always responsive, helpful, and made us feel comfortable knowing everything was being taken care of. Throughout the entire trip, the service was outstanding, and our guide (Kennedy) was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely cared about making our experience special. Everything was organized and reliable, and we felt the trip was an incredible value for the money. The safari itself was beyond anything we could have imagined—you must add the hot air balloon ride as it another world drifting above the Serengeti. The wildlife, the scenery, the people, and the experiences will stay with us for the rest of our lives. We have traveled to many amazing places, but this safari was truly one of the most unforgettable adventures we have ever shared. We would highly recommend this Safari Soles to anyone looking to experience the magic of Tanzania!

I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone visiting Tanzania.
I had an amazing experience on my 5-day safari in Tanzania, visiting the incredible Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. The whole trip was beautiful, well-organized, and exceeded my expectations.
From the very beginning, the staff were extremely helpful, friendly, and responsive. During the booking process, they provided me with a very clear and well-organized itinerary, so I always knew what to expect each day.
One of the highlights was our accommodation. In Ngorongoro, we stayed right on the rim of the crater, with incredible views over the crater. In the Serengeti, we stayed in camps/lodges right in the middle of the reserve, surrounded by nature and wildlife. Being so close to the animals made the experience feel truly authentic and unforgettable.
The safari days were full days, giving us plenty of time to explore and look for wildlife. Our driver was excellent—very professional, kind, and cooperative. He genuinely did his best to help us see as many animals as possible and had great knowledge of the wildlife and the areas we visited.
The lodges also included all meals—breakfast, lunch, and dinner—which made everything very convenient and stress-free. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and I felt very well taken care of throughout the entire trip.

Wonderful experience at Masai Mara
Our tour with Safari Soles at Masai Mara went well. Samuel (Sammy) was a wonderful driver and made our game drive an unforgettable experience. We nanaged to see 4 out of the Big 5, missing out on the rhino as we didn't make it in time during the morning. Nonetheless, Sammy did his very best to let us see as much as we could during the full day game drive including catching a sleeping cheetah and wildebeest crossing the river.
The hotel La Maison Rovale was decent with amazing views. I accidently left a set of headphones at the hotel and Vanessa our tour planner, helped arrange for its delivery back to Nairobi without much hassle. Overall, we had a good experience and would recommend.

The perfect experience
We didn’t have a lot of time, and we had a teenager with us, so we needed an exciting and fun experience where we felt the full
Safari experience in only a few days. Safari Soles and our tour guide Abu made it all happen. He knew where and when to have the best animal sightings and we always were able to get incredibly close to everything. We were celebrating our 21 anniversary when we were there and when Abu found out he made it incredibly special with a gorgeous sunset experience, and a delicious cake at both Masek Lake Lodge and Safari Tanagire. When you are in a car all day with a stranger it’s great when they make it enjoyable and fun and know exactly when to entertain and guide us and when to let us just experience the beauty of everything. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

A dream safari that exceeded every expectation , unforgettable from start to finish!
Our safari was an incredible adventure and exceeded all of our expectations by far. Safari Soles truly made our dream safari come true and gave us countless unforgettable moments and memories that we will cherish forever.
From the very beginning, the entire trip was perfectly organized, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy every single moment. We were especially happy to have an excellent German-speaking guide, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable and personal.
We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better guide and driver. Their knowledge, experience, friendliness, and dedication made our safari truly special. We always felt well taken care of, and they went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience.
The food during our safari was another wonderful surprise. The meals were delicious and far exceeded anything we had expected. The same goes for our accommodations – every place we stayed was beautiful, comfortable, and carefully selected, making the entire journey even more memorable.
This safari was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and something we will never forget. From the incredible wildlife and breathtaking landscapes to the outstanding organization and wonderful people who accompanied us along the way, everything was simply perfect.
We wholeheartedly recommend Safari Soles to anyone dreaming of an unforgettable safari experience. If we ever have the chance to go on another safari, we would choose Safari Soles again without hesitation.
Thank you for turning our dream safari into reality and for giving us memories that will stay with us forever! 🦁🌍❤️

Excellent attention
Our tour guide Eliis was amazing! We really enjoyed the company while on the road and he was teaching us about his culture and language. He was patient and helped us look and take pictures of all the animals especially elefants (my favorite). He also ensured my food was correct because I have gluten intolerance and he also kept my medicine cold as needed. He was very proactive and I didn't even had to remind him. He was funny and with a great energy. He also thought us a lot about the animals. Overall my inner happy kid is very happy about the whole experience.

Wonderful honeymoon-safari with Safari Soles and brilliant guide Dickson
On August 2026 we had a wonderful honeymoon safari with Safari Soles and our guide Dickson. The safari was a private tour of 11 days, most time in the Serengeti in different camps. The organisation of the tour was perfect, our car was excellent and Dickson, our guide, was brilliant. We had fantastic sightings and Dickson did always his best to make our tour perfect. It was a fantastic once in a lifetime experience, but we definitely want to come back.
We would every time book again our tour with Safari Soles and can recommend the company a lot. Also we would love to do a next tour with Dickson again, because of he was a brilliant guide and also good German speaking. Sorry for our bad English….

An unforgettable first safari in Kenya
We had a truly memorable trip with Safari Soles and couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our first safari in Kenya.
Ruth helped us plan our safari in Kenya, and she was incredibly helpful and patient throughout the entire process. She answered all of our questions, gave thoughtful suggestions, and worked with us to design an itinerary that felt perfect for what we wanted to see and experience.
Our guide, Sam, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, passionate about wildlife, fun to spend time with, and clearly loves what he does. We saw an incredible variety of animals, including all of the Big Five. What really stood out was Sam’s ability to read animal behavior and anticipate what they might do next. He was often thinking ahead and positioning us in a great spot for the next movement or sighting. He also shared a lot of interesting fun facts about the animals that made the experience even more enjoyable.
Overall, we had an amazing first safari experience and would highly recommend both Ruth and Sam to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Amazing guide and great logistics
Our guide, Eli, was an incredible guide, he was knowledgeable, funny, and warm. He paid a lot of attention to detail, he went the extra mile with all of our requests, he made beautiful videos and took great photos. He also shared interesting cultural facts. And he knew where to go to see the best of all the parks. We saw countless cats, all big 5, and many other animals. He was very patient with us, and he taught us lots of Kiswahili. We couldn’t be happier with this experience.

Outstanding professional
I had been planning this family trip for about two months, wanting to give my children, aged 11 and 13, a different and unforgettable experience. After receiving many offers, I eventually decided to work with Safari Soles, mainly because of the prompt and excellent communication with Hawa Thomas, who organised our five-day trip down to the smallest detail, exactly according to what I had asked for. She followed everything I told her I wanted this adventure to include and created the best possible itinerary based on both our wishes and our budget.
Our journey then began with our guide, Elli. There are simply no words to describe everything we saw and experienced, but what I really want to highlight is that Elli made an enormous difference to the whole experience. I won’t even talk about the animals, the crossing, and all the incredible things you can see in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Instead, I want to talk about Elli’s safe driving and the way he made even the most challenging roads feel completely manageable. My son, who generally gets carsick quite easily, never had a problem during the trip.
I also want to mention the way Elli patiently explained everything to the children and answered all their questions about the animals, the jokes and laughter we shared throughout the journey, and, of course, the dancing! He is an absolutely incredible person: kind, cheerful, positive, funny, and 100% professional.
My children are already waiting for him to come to Athens so they can be his guides this time!!!
Elli, you were so much more than we ever expected to find in a guide, and I truly hope that all your drivers are as wonderful as he is. Congratulations to the whole team!!!!
