Super
Hi Patrick and Lennox,
Sanyi and Min are here.
The trip we just had is unbelievable amazing. The things we saw, the service we got from our hotel personnel and the food prepared for us are met and even exceeded our initial expectation. We are so happy to have Mike, Isaack as our tour guides and drivers. They are so professional and very knowledgeable. In Kenya our car usually was the last vehicle drive on the road in the group. But Mike was very good at to find the best spot for us to observe the wild animals. Mike and Isaack are very patient to unswerving our questions and sometimes they even spelled the animals name to us. A big thank to Patrick. You arranged an extra city tour for us on the day we were leaving Arusha. Min and me don’t have a word to express our satisfaction for this trip. It is just super. If you have to ask an area can be improved I would say the condition of the hotel at third place we stayed in Kenya could be a little bit better. The food there are excellent, the cabin sleeping area are fine. The only thing can be better is the cabin shower area. It is a little bit wear and tear. Anyway, overall as whole trip we will give 10 out of 10 for its grade and we have no hesitation to recommend your company to our friends and our daughters if they plan go to Africa. Good luck to both of you.
Cheers,
Sanyi and Min

Amazing 5 day tour of Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro with an awesome safari team
What an amazing safari we had with safari soles. Irine was the perfect planner, giving us many thoughts and suggestions for the best itinerary for our party of 11, including kids from 7 to 16. She was incredibly patient and helpful, from the first time we had first contact, right through the entire process of selecting, booking and then actually being on safari. Nothing was too much effort.
Big thanks to our transfer guides Andrew, Baltazar, Erick and Chief for helping us to and from the airport and showing us some of the sights of Arusha.
As for the safari, what an incredible experience we had as we visited Tarangire, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater. Our guides Silas and Kennedy were awesome. Amazing knowledge, great company and managed to find us pretty much all we hoped to see. Apart from their choice of favourite football team (Chelsea 👎🏼) they were great - making sure we got into the best position when observing the rarer wildlife but always respectful of the animals. Even the long drives were brilliant and on the first day in the Serengeti we saw lions and cheetah up close, leopard, elephants, hyena and much more. They also waited patiently and used their knowledge to make sure we got into position to watch the migration over the Mara river. The safari camps were outstanding and sleeping so close to wild animals (while being kept perfectly safe by the camp staff) was an unbelievable experience.
Overall, a Serengeti safari is an incredible experience that we would recommend to everybody and you won’t find a better team than safari soles to plan and run your safari.
Thank you team

Amazing
We had a wonderful time on our safari by safari Soles. From the start, Furahini was very responsibe and helpful with all of my questions (which were many). Our guide Idriss was friendly, knowledgeable and we had a great time with him! We made amazing memories and this is a vacation we will not ever forget.

Very humble but experienced and lucky
Christian was very knowledgeable and helped us find every animal we were looking for. We had a close up view of the big 5 and we were also positioned perfectly in order to see the entire wildebeest river crossing from start to finish.

Quick and attentive to wants and priorities!
Our Safari Beach Vacation with Safari Soles was amazing and truly a trip of a lifetime due to our guide Ally Kimea! He went out of his way to ensure we saw everything we wanted and took time to educate us on animals and customs we have never seen/heard before. His knowledge and expertise is beyond the standard for tour guides. We got to see 4 out of the Big 5 and every extra animal on our list due to him. We even got to get up close with both lions and elephants. We were sad to move on to the beach and leave our expert guide but if possible would request him again and again! Thank you for the best safari trip Ally (kaka)!

Once in a lifetime!
Our safari with Safari Soles Tours was exceptional. From the start, Furahini was quick to answer every question and crafted a perfect itinerary. The highlight of our trip was our guide, Cornel. He truly deserves 10 stars. As first time visitors to Tanzania, we could not have asked for a better guide. He is knowledgeable about the wildlife, people, and cultures, while also being patient, friendly, and genuinely caring. A true “human GPS” of the Serengeti, Cornel made every moment memorable. We loved our experience and will request him again for future adventures in Tanzania.

Efficient, Responsible and Friendly!
The great migration safari has been a remarkable experience.
Our contact person, Irine was very efficient. She responded to our questions quickly and tailor made the plan for us that suited our budget. She ensured that all our accommodations were well arranged in advance.
Shout out to our guide Abdul, who is professional, knowledgable and friendly. He shared a lot of knowledge about different animals with us in details and introduced their habitats. When he saw some different animals that we have never seen before, he would stop and introduce. We truly learned a lot from him.
It’s lucky that we were able to see the river crossing and all the big cats and many other animals.
Abdul is also detailed minded that he had all the meal plans arranged in advance. He also asked about our food preference and discussed with the accommodation staff who’s responsible for the meals.
Our safari was overall a smooth and memorable one. Thank you Safari Soles!

Cornel was an expert and engaging guide whose enthusiasm and insight made our safari an unforgettabl
Our safari with Safari Soles was unforgettable, thanks to our guide, Cornel. He didn’t just point out the animals—he explained their behaviors and interactions in a way that made every sighting come alive, and watching the wildlife through his eyes gave us a whole new appreciation for nature. What made the trip even more special was that between game drives, he also shared stories about the local people and culture, adding such a meaningful layer to the trip beyond the safari itself. Cornel’s knowledge, warmth, and passion made the entire experience personal, memorable, and truly one of a kind. By the end, it felt less like we had a guide and more like we were traveling with a friend who truly loves what he does. We cannot recommend Safari Soles—and especially Cornel—highly enough.

Sensational, great people, great experience.
From the very beginning of planning Happiness at Safari Soles, was super comunicative, polite and was able to answer all of our thousands of questions. She put together a safari with exactly what we wanted to do and see and within our budget. We even had a change of the number of friends coming along and even that did not cause a problem. She just adjusted things and we recieved a new estimate that very day.
In regards to the guide, Junior was in our opinion SUPER. He was very aware of our interests and was extreamly eager to ensure we were able to do and see all that we had in mind. He was personable and informative, flexible and patient with us. We will be keeping in touch as we feel like we made a new friend in Junior.
As far as lodging goes. Even though in the estimate they sent us, there were photos of the lodging, it doesn't come close to reality. The reality is way better! We felt as if we were in luxury accomodations, but paying a mid range price. The food was absolutely amazing, no matter where we stayed. Even the picknics were not of the boxed kind (as I saw other companies provide), they were freshly cooked and portions enough to fill us and more. There is nothing like spreading the table cloth over the hood of the Range Rover and pulling out a full meal with wine and beer and eating under an acacia tree! Really memorable. In one of the tented camps we stayed at, our hardest decision was to either shower in the open air shower or to take a bath in the room with views overlooking the valley. Absolutely incredible.
At night, the tented camps are watched over by the Massai. Other companies, might employ different people but I found it great that they employed local people.

Very helpful and knowledgeable
Amazing experience. We got to see a lot of animals. Our guide Joseph was the best. He's is very knowledgeable about all the different animals in the park and made sure we saw all of them from close. He knew all the best spots for animal watching and knows Serengeti by heart. Highly recommend him for the best safari experience.
