great experience
Due to the good reviews and also the fair price, my husband and I decided to go on a one-day safari to Nyerere National Park with Shammah Wonders Safari. We opted for the private tour and it was perfect. Immediately after booking, I was contacted via WhatsApp and then kept up to date. We really liked that. We flew from Zanzibar directly to the park by plane. We were met there by our tour guide Elly and we immediately liked him very much. Elly did everything he could to ensure that we saw as many animals as possible and always drove very close to the animals so that we could admire them in peace. He also told us lots of interesting facts about the animals. You can tell that he really loves his job. We had a really great day with Elly and have fond memories of this safari. We can therefore only recommend the tour. We also recommend booking the private version, as you get a lot out of it and the safari is also customised and you stay with your favourite animals for a long time.

Safari in rain season
We did a safari in rain season (mid of april). We decided to do the tour really in a short term. But the company worked really fast and everything what we liked to do was possible. With our guide Patrick we had a perfect guy! He was a really kindly person, perfect in animial and bird knowing and a top driver. And he has to be a good driver in that extremly road conditions. We felt always save with him! Thanks for this unforgettable Safari to the team and especially thanks for Patrick! Best guide we ever had.

Fantastic safari tour with our kids
Although I was a bit reluctant about booking a safari tour online, I am more than happy that I asked Shammah Wonders for a quote. Right after asking for some information, the communication with Justine was fluent through WhatsApp and email. He answered all of our questions promptly and gave good input for the rest of our trip. I compared with several other companies and the price offer was really good. After checking some references, we booked 5 days Mikumi/Udzungwa/Nyerere and it was fantastic! Justine and our guide Matata arrived early and from that moment, me and my family (kids 7&10) felt very comfortable with the guide. During our trip flexibility was needed, since the rain came early and in huge volume. This made our tour even more remarkable and still the wildlife and the landscape kept impressing us. Our guide was very experienced and answered any question, about the tour, the flora and fauna, life in Tanzania, everything! Also Justine was still available to answer questions about the tour.
Was everything fantastic? Almost! The boat trip and bushwalk in Nyerere/Selous was not meeting our expectations. But this was due the weather and our interpretation. And maybe we are spoilt after staying in Chobe, Botswana, a few years ago.
Don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions or doubts! For Dutch readers, I can provide you a link to our Polarsteps diary.

Great experience - 1 day Selous from Zanzinar
We took a full-day safari from Zanzibar. It was amazing! The perfect way to spend a day and have a bit of adventure during a relaxing holiday in Zanzibar. The communication with Justine was perfect. We exchanged a lot of emails and even via WhatsApp. He helped us with all preparations. The driver was at our hotel and took us to the airport From there we took 30 min and the Game drive started immediately.
I really recommend this experience. We saw all the animals possible except Leopards and Rinos! The lunch was very tasty and its location was amazing! At the end of the day, we got back to Zanzibar directly to our hotel!
This is a lifetime experience which I recommend to everyone that travels to Zanzibar!

Fabulous experience with young kids of 7 and 5
The experience was excellent from the quality of the car (amazingly comfortable Land Cruiser ) and most importantly the excellent experience provided by our Guide Elly !!! He has been awesome with us and our 2 kids aged 7 and 5 - he explained the wild life rules, the local traditions, helped us connect with the the Masai and local communities and schools : He went above and beyond to make this safari an unforgettable experience and his experience and determination has allowed us to see some incredible animals and live a unique experience !! Definitely recommended.

An amazing experience!
This was absolutely the highlight of our holiday: our driver there really knows everything about all wildlife, speaks excellent English so we could understand all stories and explanations about all the animals.
Hè knew the perfect places to spot the elephants, impalas, pumbas, lions, zebras, wildebeasts, giraffes, crocodiles, buffalos, hippos, really we saw them all!!! What an experience!
I can highly recommend it! It's absolutely worth the money!

Really great service, guide and tour at Nyerere/Selous National park!
We did a 4 day trip to Nyerere/Selous National Park which has been an awesome experience!
To let you know from the beginning why we give 4 instead of 5 stars: This is "only" because of the car which made some troubles. But Shammah Wonders guides of this park should use another/ a new one by now! :)
The rest was really great. Starting from planning the trip and communication with Justin: This happened via Mail and WhatsApp. Shammah Wonders was very flexible and we could extend the offered 3 day trip to a 4 day trip with one more day of Game Drive. Also some spontaneous changes on site have been arranged. We flew in from Zanzibar. Pick-Ups and flight worked smoothly. The camp was nice, elephants and warthogs visited us in the camp. Our guide Eric was excellent and fun! We saw the Big 5 (except Rhinos, which don't exist in the park) and there wasn't a question he could not answer about animal and wild life.
Personally, we would skip the programme items village tour and walking safari the next time and focus on game drive and boat safari. But all in all a fantastic trip and incredible experience. Nyerere National Park and Shammah Wonders are recommendable! Asante sana!

Wonderful experience
We went on a 2 day trip to Nyerere National Park. It was an amazing experience. Our guide had a lot of knowledge about the park and the animals. The communication with Justine was excellent When we had any questions we were able to reach Justine 7 days a week. Whether it was early in the morning or late in the evening we always got a quick response back. Since we had such a good experience we also decided to book a trip with Shammah Wonder Safari to Stone Town and Mnemba Island.

Amazing Safari in Nyerere with Shammah, Justin and El Hakeem
We had an amazing safari experience with Shammah Wonders! Justin did an excellent job of organizing the safari for us. He was very responsive and extremely patient in accommodating our customization requests until we came with the perfect plan. Our guide El Hakeem was just amazing. With a bachelor degree in wild life management, he's an expert in the fauna and flora of East Africa. He made our safari unforgettable with his enthusiasm, easy going attitude and patience with all our requests. He has so much experience as a safari guide and I can't recommend him enough.
We did a 4 days safari with two game drives, a boat tour, a bush walk and a bunch of other activities. We were so lucky to spot most animals on our first game drive which was one of the most memorable days of our lives. El Hakeem was so good in tracking animals and going off-trail to spot them. Those amazing off-trail escapades were really the highlight of the safari! But the rest was all great, from the two lodges we stayed in to the picnic meals during our game drives. I can't recommend enough Shammah, Justin and El Hakeem.
