An unforgettable journey: thank you Elli, Action, and Safari Soles!
We had an unforgettable 4-day journey in Tanzania, flying into Arusha and then exploring Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Words are simply not enough to thank Safari Soles and, above all, our extraordinary guide Elli and chef Action.On a human level, Elli was absolutely wonderful: from the moment he picked us up at the airport, he took care of us every single second and shared his incredible enthusiasm, making our experience so happy. Knowing the environment perfectly, he tracked down all the animals for us and always positioned the vehicle from the absolute best perspectives, giving us breathtaking sightings and passing on a visceral passion for nature. Beyond showing us unique landscapes, Elli truly made us fall in love with Tanzania and its people.An immense thank you also goes to Action for delighting us with his extraordinary cooking. You gave us the most beautiful experience of our lives. Thank you forever!

Best guidance
Safari trip has always been one of my dreams since I’m a child.
when I booked with Safari Soles I had big expectations and customer service was amazing in the preparation and organisation of the trip but what has made this Safari the best experience in my life so far was our guide Elli: his empathy, his smile, his experience and skills, his professionalism and preparation were much above the expectations. He made my dream come true.
I’m coming back to Italy not only with Africa in my heart but also with a new friend. I’ll definitely recommend Safari Soles and Elli to all my contacts who already asked me.
Big thanks to Elli, our chef Action and all Safari Soles team.
Unforgettable moments

An unforgettable, perfectly organized safari with unmatched warmth and hospitality.
We have just returned from a fantastic 14-day safari through Kenya and Tanzania, organized by Safari Soles. We specifically wanted our trip organized and handled by a local travel agency, and thanks to the many positive reviews, we chose Safari Soles. Wonderfully organized from start to finish!
It all started with the patient guidance of Julieth, who put together no less than 17 proposals for us. Transferring payment to an unfamiliar company is always a bit nerve-wracking at first, but our trust was strong. For the 7 days in Kenya, Safari Soles partners with a Kenyan operator, Native Afrika Voyages (also very good!). The remaining 7 days were handled directly by Safari Soles.
I want to thank our driver, guide, and wealth of knowledge, Estomih, for his patience, expertise, and safe driving. Everyone in the parks knows Estomih, and Estomih knows every route in the parks. He went above and beyond to show us the true beauty of Tanzania. His enthusiasm and willingness to go the extra mile were incredible. Mambo Vipi, Estomih!
Safari Soles manages several accommodations inside the parks. We stayed at a migration camp as well as a permanent tented camp (both in the Serengeti). The organization was top-notch. Nothing was too much trouble, and the staff were exceptionally friendly.
Our daughter turned 18 during our stay at the migration camp, and we celebrated her birthday there. They organized a sundowner with drinks and bites, and the chef baked a cake for her. Songs were sung, and she felt truly celebrated. It is a birthday she will not soon forget. This perfectly illustrates just how hospitable the team at Safari Soles is.
All the booked accommodations exceeded our expectations. I am usually not a big fan of buffet food, but there was a wide variety of dishes and dietary requirements were well accommodated. The food was delicious every single day. All in all, it was a fantastic trip that was wonderfully organized and executed. I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

Elias took total care of us: highly safety-focused, deeply knowledgeable, and truly passionate!
Our Serengeti safari with Safari Soles was hands-down a 10/10 experience, perfectly organized from start to finish! From our initial pickup to the final drop-off, every single detail was handled seamlessly.
A special shoutout to our incredible guide, Elias—he made this trip truly unforgettable. Elias took care of us every step of the way with endless patience, amazing warmth, and captivating stories about the wildlife and culture. Beyond his deep knowledge and sharp eye for spotting animals, what stood out most was how safe we felt with him at all times. He is a skilled, calm, and deeply attentive guide.
If you are planning a trip to Tanzania, book with Safari Soles and definitely ask for Elias! Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime.

Wonderful family safari with Safari Soles
We had a wonderful 3-day Maasai Mara safari with Safari Soles and were very happy with the whole experience.
From the planning stage, Ruth was extremely helpful, responsive and professional. She patiently answered all our questions, helped us resolve issues quickly, and made sure everything was well arranged before our trip. We also really appreciated the complimentary upgrade of our accommodation, which was a very nice surprise and made our stay even more enjoyable.
Our driver-guide Paul was professional, experienced and responsible throughout the safari. He worked hard to find wildlife for us and even arranged for a knowledgeable local guide to join us in the Mara, which really helped with spotting animals and understanding the area.
We saw an amazing variety of wildlife, including lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and many others. The overall game-drive experience was excellent.
One of the highlights was the beautiful sundowner experience in the Maasai Mara — a perfect way to end an unforgettable day on the savannah.
Overall, everything from the planning and communication to the accommodation, vehicle, guiding and safari experience was handled very professionally. A special thank you to Ruth and Paul for taking such good care of our family.
We would happily recommend Safari Soles to families planning a Maasai Mara safari.

Flawless from start to finish—highly recommend Safari Soles!
We truly couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience. From our initial planning conversations—filled with excellent recommendations—to the actual trek, everything was seamless.
Our vehicle was practically brand new, fully equipped, and spotlessly cleaned by our team every single morning. A massive highlight was the food: while other operators provided basic, premade picnic boxes, Safari Soles arranged freshly cooked lunches from our accommodations to enjoy right in the middle of the parks.
Every lodge selected was fantastic, and the staff everywhere were incredibly attentive. Furthermore, the final quote was 100% accurate with zero hidden fees. Our driver and guide were respectful of the wildlife and exceptionally knowledgeable. We learned so much and will never forget this trip.
Don't hesitate to book with Safari Soles—their team will not disappoint!
