Safari fun
It was nicely organized, we enjoyed the trip from start to finish. Serengeti safari game drive was the best experience. Ngorongoro crater was also very unique experience.

Amazing places
We took a 4 day/ 3 night safari to lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorogoro crater. The places are unbelievable! Our camp sites were good; very near our safari rides to Ngorogoro and Lake Manyara, and in the middle of Serengeti. The safari vehicle is comfortable and spacious. Freddy, our driver is a great one and was always aware of where to go to see the animals. Kalifah, our cook made sure we had tasty food when coming back from the safari. Our guides for Lake Manyara, Bernado and Erick, were very nice and informative; they are very knowledgeable about the surroundings.

Outstanding personal service, drivers and accommodations.
Thinking about a safari in Tanzania? We just got back. We had to make our reservations at the last minute, and couldn’t find anything affordable on the web. So we called a local contact (contacts are important in Tanzania) and he recommended Abraham Wilfread Shaidi with Shengena Tours.
What a blessing. Abraham immediately responded with three options ranging from backpacking to luxury hotels. Well to be honest, some of the hotels were not five stars by standards of spoiled travelers like ourselves, but they were clean, well equipped, and ingeniously designed with friendly, courteous, and incessantly helpful staff.
Naturally, we encountered some of the problems that experienced travelers consider normal in developing countries: e.g., trouble getting the deposit to Abraham, Abraham’s difficulties transferring our deposits to the game parks for our entrance fees, etc. Problems? Well, it’s not for nothing you hear Hakuna Matata—"no problem”—quite often in Tanzania, because for Abraham, there was no problem he could not solve.
He found us an excellent driver and guide—China, pronounced “Cheena”—who took us through four game parks, where he demonstrated an uncanny skill for spotting the famous “big five” (elephant, lion, water buffalo, rhino, and most elusive of all, leopard), along with an unlimited knowledge of flowers, trees, animal habits and habitats. He was good company as well.
Abraham met us at the airport, maintained contact throughout the trip, and accompanied us to the airport on our departure.
If you’re a novice traveler, you might worry about trust. Hakuna matata again. You can count on Abraham and his drivers to be absolutely good to their word—even if it involves being reimbursed for entrance fees you had to pay unexpectedly at some of the parks. You’re in good hands with Abraham.
In short, if we have a chance to return, Abraham will be our first call. 255-69-216 3280 on mobile line or WhatsApp. Email: info@shengenatravel.com.
Couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Absolute once in a lifetime Safari experience!
I decided to go for a 10 day safari on my own and hell I do not regret choosing this tour operator! As it was my 1st time safari, I had a little doubt and pressure going into the unknown. however, Stephen, Abraham and Elrie were fabulous in managing this safari inside out. Guide, China was very reliable and organised, always informed us with extra knowledge or stories of each animal through his vast experience, which he finds with excellent eyesight from afar; this made long hours of driving fun and interesting, if a case occurs that some customer may get bored of the magnificent endless grass view of Serengeti bedded with countless of wild animals.
For Tanzania, I was offically conracted for 5-day Safari (lake marnyara, Serengeti and ngorongoro crater), but due to a misunderstandings they were unable to find my group ( budget safari), therefore I stayed in Arusha one extra night, which was not in the itinerary. However, Abraham was quick to review the confusion and gave me a free upgrade to a luxury lodge for Serengeti and still gave me an extra one day of safari experience! Abraham was true to his words and very helpful in sorting out mistakes if arises.
I would highly recommend Shengena travel anytime for any occasion of safari experience!

One of the best experiences!
Me and my girlfriend had a 4 days Safari early December last year with Shengena Travel starting with Tarangire, 2 nights in Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and then back to Arusha to us we had good communications all the way, the driver guide we had was all experienced, knowledgable and new all the spots where to find the animals and we were lucky enough to spot all of the big five. We slept on all of the accomodations we requested and all I can say it was one of the best experiences me and my girlfriend had. We couldn't ask for more.

Great service
I had an amazing experience with Abraham and his team. They could find a package that was compatible to my budget and they checked on me everyday to see if I was fine. I thank them for the great service and professionalism! All the best from Germany!
