Amazing safaris!! Our tour guide couldn’t have been any better!!
Silas, our tour guide, was outstanding! Not only was he knowledgeable about all the animals but he spotted animals that others drove right past. Highly recommend!! It was amazing how close you can be to the animals.

Nice, quick reply
- [ ] It’s an impressive experience with our excellent guide Efraem
Solomon . He is very friendly, talkative, and professional, always managing to find the best viewing spot every time. We were lucky enough to encounter all kinds of animals we wanted to see every time, and he would patiently tell us the names of each animal. This is the most unforgettable experience I've ever had.

Amazing
Our trip in Tanzania was truly amazing! The whole journey went perfectly, and our guide Efra made it even more special. He was not only professional and knowledgeable about the wildlife, but also very kind, patient, and attentive to our needs. Thanks to him, we enjoyed every moment and learned so much. This experience was unforgettable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Unforgettable Tanzania Safari: Exceptional Service, Stellar Guide, and Pure Magic with Safari Soles!
Safari Soles was the company that responded the fastest after I cast my wide net of inquiries. Their customer service is excellent—they answered all my silly questions without hesitation.
They were also flexible, making adjustments based on my requests. The proposal they sent was beautifully designed, easy to read, and crystal clear!
The pricing was incredibly reasonable. I felt like the service, accommodations, food, and guide quality we received were all top-notch—far exceeding our expectations!
They’re totally trustworthy, and I’ll definitely recommend them to friends!
This trip was lucky enough to pair us with an outstanding Tanzanian guide named Mandela. He’s a calm, detail-oriented professional who not only has deep knowledge of wildlife and can accurately identify animals, but also understands their behaviors, migration patterns, and habitats inside out. This made it so easy for us to appreciate Tanzania’s diverse wildlife, especially during the animal migration tracking—his routes and standards were spot-on. On top of that, Mandela has great emergency handling skills, drives safely and steadily, and is highly skilled at operating the vehicle, creating a secure and comfortable safari environment where guest safety always comes first. This journey left us feeling incredibly joyful and enriched!
A huge thank you to Safari Soles for curating such a seamless and magical adventure—we couldn’t have asked for more. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone dreaming of exploring Tanzania’s wild wonders; they’re the perfect partner for an epic safari!

The safari was perfectly organized by a professional and reliable travel agency that took care of ev
We had an incredible 5-day safari in Tanzania and couldn’t be happier with the experience! Everything was perfectly organizedn. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and located in stunning surroundings that truly made us feel close to nature.
A special thanks goes to our guide, Thomas, who made the trip unforgettable. He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. His English was excellent, and he shared so much interesting information about the wildlife, landscapes, and local culture. We always felt safe and well taken care of.
I highly recommend this travel agency for anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and warm hospitality exceeded all our expectations. Thank you for the adventure of a lifetime!

Amazing safari experience
From the moment we enquired about the safari, everything was so easy – Irine took care of every detail and made the whole process stress-free.
But the real star of our trip was Floridi. Floridi, Floridi, Floridi – what a guide! He’s such a kind, funny, knowledgeable man and went above and beyond every single day to make sure we had the best experience. His animal-spotting skills are incredible – thanks to him we saw the Big 5 (which we know isn’t always easy!) plus so many other amazing animals.
We also loved chatting with him during the drives and hearing his funny stories about guiding and his life – it made the whole trip feel extra special.
If you’re booking a safari, do yourself a favor and ask for Floridi – he made this the trip of a lifetime!

Kelvin was very professional, knowledgeable, personable, and the best we could have had!
When my wife and I thought about going on a safari to the Serengeti, we had this idea of what that would be based on research, but what Safari Soles delivered far exceeded anything we could have ever imagined! From the beginning, this company was top tier. Upon emailing them, I received an itinerary within 24 hours from Jamal Mwakilembe. This itinerary was based on the information I provided them, but anything I wanted to edit, they worked with me to form the perfect itinerary for the time we were there. Jamal provided information on all things we would need to travel to Tanzania including travel visas, packing tips, information on the Safari, what to expect, and images/videos of safaris that had just ended. Upon arrival, they had a driver waiting for us at the airport to make our transfer to Arusha seamless!
The night of arrival, we had a customer support representative, Catherine, reach out to us to introduce herself and ensure we had everything we needed. Throughout the trip, she was extremely responsive (within minutes) for any questions we had.
As for the safari itself, words cannot express how incredible it was! Our guide, Kelvin Mbise, was the best guide we could have possibly gotten. We did a private safari so it was my wife and I with Kelvin the entire time. Kelvin explained everything that was Tanzania specifically Arusha, each park we went to, the different tribes, and provided information on everything we asked him. Once we hit the parks, Kelvin knew every single spot to take us to in order to maximize our experience. Put it this way, we really only had 3 days to fit Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro in and Kelvin found a way to allow us to see The Big Five, and also three brother cheetahs, unlimited zebras, elephants, hippos, giraffes, hyenas, wildebeests, a crocodile, and several other animals. When I say he found these animals, we were within a few feet of the majority including a mother lion and her cub just after a hunt. Kelvin ensured we had all the photos we wanted and more information on this than we could have imagined! Each day, Kelvin had lunch for us in a picnic area that had an incredible view. He had our vehicle stocked with water, soda, juice, beer and wine each day and was willing to stop anywhere along the way for restroom breaks.
The accommodations each night well exceeded expectations and the food was outstanding. There were either bonfires or shows each night after dinner and the staff was very friendly.
If you’re looking for an experience you will never forget, go with Safari Soles! Also, request Kelvin as your guide. Trust me, you won’t regret it!

Amazing safari!
There are so many safari agencies, and we’re so grateful we went for safari soles.
Our tour operator Patrick planned the perfect trip for us. He was very knowledgeable and optimized so many things for us, answered carefully each question and giving us so many advice.
Our guide Jonathan was very experienced and it showed. He was really passionate about making our experience the best it could be, always attentive and thoughtful. He was also very respectful of the animals and of other cars.
The pickup from the airport by Chief was also an amazing surprise, he taught us so many things about Tanzania from the start.
Overall everything was well orchestrated, and everyone was super nice and reactive.

Great provider. If you look nowhere else, you won't be disappointed
We had a custom 6-day safari with the great migration and an extension in Zanzibar organized by Renatus, curated by Jackson and guided by Ernest. Safari Soles is a great team, extremely responsive, prompt and reassuring.
Thanks to Ella McKendrick, we received estimates from a handful of companies, but Safari Soles always stood out by being the quickest to respond, the most flexible, the most transparent and the leading edge on value for money. Our decision process was laborious because we knew we would probably only get on go at a safari, but Safari Soles was always the most patient and helpful with us, and this carried through the entire safari.
Our guide was Ernest who we would ask for again if we went back, and who we highly recommend. We developed deep trust in Ernest's instincts, but also his manner. He was always patient with us, knowledgeable, prepared, punctual and extremely friendly. Ernest always kept us informed about what was going on and why we were going where we were going, and he never tired of our constant questions. It was a pleasure to share that time with him and we consider him a friend.
All our accommodations worked exactly as they were explained to us. We didn't have to worry about anything but showing up. All our questions during the trip were promptly answered by Jackson and the staff at the office, and everything was clear.

3 person private Safari Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Tarangire - Fantastic
7 days of amazing Safari. We got the chance to see the great migration, lions, leopards, cheetahs and so many other animals, more than we could dream of. Our amazing guide Simon was really an expert, he could sense where the animals were long before we could see them. You could really tell he knew where the different animals had their habitats and had patience to wait when (especially the leopards) were hiding.
We like our accommodations, both the tented camps and the bungalows. They were all well equipped and the personal was very helpful and friendly.
We would happily repeat the experience again.
