Outstanding Safari!
We wanted to do something really special for our honeymoon and decided on a safari in Tanzania. Although we made this decision rather quickly, finding a suitable safari operator took a lot of time. There are so many operators, they all seem similar, and it was difficult to find any real differences between them.
So we said: we want a local company that knows the area really well, is committed to animal welfare, and keeps our money in the country rather than sending it abroad to someone else. In the end, we decided on Safari Soles, and luckily we made the right decision.
Communication with Irine (via email and later via WhatsApp) was relaxed and friendly from the start, and we felt very well taken care of. She understood our needs and wishes very well and put together our perfect tour after more than 10 variations.
Eric picked us up from the airport in Arusha on the first day and gave us an interesting tour of the city. We then spent the remaining six days on safari with our guide Chris, and it was absolutely fantastic! Chris went to so much trouble, had an answer to all our questions, and has such a good sense of where certain animals are likely to be found. Thanks to him, we saw two leopards, lots of lion prides, and hyenas, and he was even the first of all the other guides to spot a distant rhino on our day in Ngorongoro Crater. He also kept asking us how we were doing, responded to our needs, and showed us at least ten times as many animals as we had planned to see. That was crazy and so amazing!
We couldn't have asked for a better guide than Chris! He's just a really really cool guy and we had the best time with him. Asante sana, Chris!!
We would also like to thank the entire Safari Soles team for their dedication and support when we were stuck at our accommodation during the riots surrounding the elections in Arusha, as our flight was canceled. This showed us how much Safari Soles cares about its customers (even in difficult times).
Thank you all for this wonderful and special trip, which will always remain in our hearts.

Unique experience
We had a wonderful experience in the Serengeti and Ngorogoro parks, beautiful camps equipped with everything we needed. Our guide, Kennedy, was impeccable and extremely kind, knowledgeable, and attentive.

Exceptional hospitality
An absolutely amazing experience. Dickson was our driver and he was very approachable and professional. He was Very respectful, knowledgeable and made us feel very safe throughout our incredible holiday experience. I would recommend Safari Soles 100%. From start to finish with all the booking. Thanks you Diana. This was made very easy and quick and precise communication. We felt listened to and everything we wanted from our trip was expertly organised. The hotels and tented camps were perfect, we couldn’t have asked for more.
During our whole trip we had breakfast, lunch and dinner organised by Safari Soles. This was done to a very high standard and also included free drinks all day in the vehicle.
The hospitality from Safari Soles was exceptional.

An amazing, unforgettable safari experience!
We had the most incredible safari experience with Safari Soles in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro and I cannot recommend them highly enough!
From the very beginning, the booking process was seamless. Irine went above and beyond to tailor the safari exactly to our preferences, and her communication was outstanding throughout. She made everything feel effortless and ensured we were fully prepared and excited for the trip.
Our guide, Cheddy, truly made the experience unforgettable. He was absolutely fantastic - warm, friendly, hilarious, and incredibly knowledgeable about all the wildlife in the area. Spending a few days with him was an absolute pleasure, and his passion for what he does really enhanced every moment of the safari.
The safari jeep was comfortable and thoughtfully stocked with plenty of water, drinks, and snacks, which made the long drives enjoyable. The picnic lunches were also delicious and added a lovely touch to each day.
Overall, this was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that we will never forget. If you’re considering a safari, look no further — Safari Soles will give you an experience beyond anything you could imagine!

SEAMLESS!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Safari Experience!
My husband Adi and I have just returned from a truly fantastic safari with Safari Soles, and everything was absolutely seamless from start to finish.
We arrived into Nairobi and were picked up and driven into Tanzania to begin our 6-day safari with our wonderful guide, Dickson. The food was fantastic, the accommodation superb, and we were lucky enough to see all the amazing animals — we ticked them all off our list! Dickson was excellent at positioning us for the best views and photo opportunities.
Communication both before and during the trip was outstanding, and we felt completely taken care of throughout. We also added on the Balloon Safari, Night Drive, and Masai Village visit — all of which were well worth doing and added even more magic to an already incredible experience.
An exceptional trip from start to finish — highly recommended!

Our seven-day safari with Safari Soles was absolutely wonderful. Everything was well organized, and we felt safe and welcome from the very beginning.
Our guide Dickson was friendly, patient, and knew so much about the animals. Thanks to him, we experienced so many beautiful moments – lions, elephants, giraffes, and stunning landscapes.
The lodges were cozy and clean, and every evening we could enjoy the sounds of nature around us.
It was an unforgettable trip, and we’re very grateful for this time with Safari Soles and Lutch.

SAIMON was hard working, knowledgeable, super helpful, professional, and fun.
We loved the NE Serengeti the best. We saw 30 different animals (not including birds). Our guide SAIMON really made the trip special for us. Safari Soles was great to work with and accommodated many changes. If you are short on time I recommend the Ngorongoro Crater as it is easy to see lots of wildlife but it is busy lots of jeeps

Dynamic, relaxed, funny, friendly and experienced
We did a 5-day safari with Safari Soles and it was honestly one of the best things we’ve ever done. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and every day felt like an adventure. The places were amazing, but what really made the difference were the people.
There are many safari companies in Tanzania, and in all of them you’ll see the animals and the parks. But what really matters is how they take care of you and how they make you feel. When something goes wrong, that’s when you see who truly cares. Safari Soles were always kind, honest and ready to help. They really made us feel safe and welcome from the start.
A huge thank you to Boniface, who helped us plan everything. He was always available and answered every message so quickly and kindly. It really felt like he cared about us.
And also to Chris, our amazing guide. What a joy to travel with him. He knows so much about every animal and every part of the parks, and he shared it all with such passion. He was always smiling, always making sure we were happy and having fun. We learned so much from him.
We also thank Eric, who picked us up in Arusha and showed us around the local markets. Everyone we met was so warm and genuine.
We couldn’t recommend Safari Soles more. They really go above and beyond, and we’ll never forget this experience.

The perfect experience
We had the best experience. Dickson was a great guide who was very knowledgeable about all national parks, their inhabitants and the sourindings. He even spoke German which made communication very easy for us. We saw everything we hoped for and more. Also the accomodations which Safari Soles provided were perfect, close to nature and with very friendly staff. Long story short it was a 10/10 trip for us and we would always do it the same way. Thank you very much Safari Soles and especially Dickson for this great experience that we will never forget

Professional Company, Great guide!
Our safari in Tanzania with Safari Soles was nothing short of magical, and we owe so much of that to our incredible guide, Oscar.
The entire process with Safari Soles was exceptionally smooth. From our initial inquiries to crafting the final itinerary, their team was attentive and made planning a breeze. All the logistics were handled flawlessly; our pickups were always on time, and every transfer was perfectly coordinated, allowing us to completely immerse ourselves in the adventure without any worries.
The true heart of our journey through the Serengeti was Oscar. His depth of knowledge is astounding. He possesses an intimate understanding of the ecosystem and was constantly sharing fascinating details about the wildlife we encountered. It was his genuine enthusiasm and open willingness to educate us that truly elevated the experience. Oscar has a remarkable talent for spotting animals from afar and an even greater talent for making you feel connected to the wild heart of Tanzania. We left not just with photos, but with a profound appreciation for the Serengeti. We wholeheartedly recommend Safari Soles and insist you ask for Oscar!
