Very friendly, competent, hakuna matata with an eagles eye for finding animals
We felt always safe and secure. Pickup from the airport and transfer to was perfect. The guide (Gilbert) simply knows everything about the parks and the animals. Especially also about all sorts of birds. He loves his job and he is committed to preserving the beautiful nature of Tanzania. Obed and Gilbert also helped us with any special needs we had. For us this was the very first safari, but they helped us to overcome any fears we had. The jeep is a grand old lady, but perfect for safari. We enjoyed standing in the car, under the hood, safe from the sun, feeling the light breeze and watching for animals. The lodges we stayed in were spatious. beautiful, clean, served good food and helped us relax and prepare for the next day's adventures. We totally recommend!

Amazing!
We were a group of friends that spent a few days with Obed on Safari in Mikumi National Park.
Obed was very flexible and helpful at all times. He and the driver explained a lot of things on the tour and tried their best to make us see as many animals as possible.
We also visited a Maasai Village and a local village.
We really enjoyed our days with Obed!
If we come back in Tanzania we will definitely contact you again!
Thank you so much for all Obed!

THE BEAUTFULL OF OBAG AFRICA SAFARIES
Obag African Safaris is the best of tour Company I saw in Tanzania .
I really never see the Company like this.
The Guide (Ngunda) is very good , enough experience and full of explainations about the bush .He is strong , chaming and caring person .
Also he did what he promised before safari ,
Am sure I payed less than I get .
I saw all I wished to see , a lot of animals like Big group of Elephant and Lion as I wished.
I will not finish to explain about Obag but for sure this is my best Company and favourate in Tanzania .

Solid experience
What a great experience. We was looked after really well and all of our wants were met. Obed and Moody went the extra mile to make sure we were all happy all of the time. Obed has a lot of knowledge of the Safari and really understood the pace of the day. We went to Selous and Julius Nyerere National Park. Moody's driving skills were great and took us through the bumpy road as smooth as possible. We had a lot of laughs and gained a lot of knowledge with great people. Not only did we learn about Safari, we also learned about Tanzania culture and the way of life.
The river boat cruise along Rafiji River was timed perfectly for sun set. On the game drive we see way more animals than anticipated. We will definitely be using Obag Africa Safari again.

Customer oriented, positive and helpful
Wild safari was my dream!
First of all, I’d like to say that 2 days adventure is amazing. We saw many kinds of animals from a very close distance.
Secondly, Obed is a nice guy, who loves his job and he does everything for his guests to be satisfied. At the beginning we couldn’t see lions, but Obed did all his best to find them. Which adds him high points. I believe not all tour companies do it. Overall, he is very positive and helpful. We had not a nice experience with accommodation, but Obed was so kind to change it for us. We are very thankful!
In few words - this tour worths it’s money. I definitely recommend it.

Professional, punctual, very friendly, very patient with their clients
It was amazing, we have seen most of the animals described on the quotation. The tour started on time and we were also back on time, as a bonus the operators made us visit one of the local restaurants

Authentic, positive, knowledgeable and fun!
You will spend a lot of time with your guide so choose wisely. I'm so glad I did!! Obed and his team were amazing. I was super excited to go on the Safari even before I met them. Communication was super easy via WhatsApp, I was able to pay in advance using Wise (it's super convenient instead of paying cash and it's easy to use). I knew I could trust them because I saw only good reviews about them (I did a very thorough research online before choosing). I also made sure to know what was included before I paid. Obed came to pick us up at our hotel in Dar es Salaam, and he was on time (even in advance). We were introduced to our driver (Alphonse) and started to drive towards Mikumi. It's a 6-7 hours drive, so be ready, of course you can stop anytime if needed, but Obed and Alphonse knew the best spots to stop for bathroom and lunch/snacks. They also told us so much about Tanzania, the culture, their villages, the different tribes and way of life. It was amazing to learn so much. The landscape on the way is so beautiful, I'm so glad I could see all of that (and not only the city and Zanzibar). The mainland's country is definitely the best part of Tanzania. Then we arrived in Mikumi park, and right away from the highway, we were able to see Giraffes, Impalas, Baboons, Wild beasts, Elephants and more! I couldn't believe we were not even in the park yet and could see them!!
Obed and Alphonse are definitely pros, as they could see the animals very fast even from far away! I was very impressed. We then arrived to our lodge, OMG IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!! The food was excellent, the staff super amazing, we had a pool, and it was not crowded at all. It was paradise! We didn't want to go back to the city ever lol we had dinner with Obed, and start talking about our plans for the safari the next day, also chat about life in Tanzania. We woke up early the next day to have breakfast and start our safari trip (game drive). We got on the highway and then BAM!!!!!! A lioness on the highway, hunting an Impala! WOW!! I just couldn't believe it. Then we saw tons of giraffes, and finally arrived to the park gate. We had to fill out some quick form, and started the game drive. It was totally magical. Obed and Alphonse knew exactly where to find the animals, we saw EVERYTHING, and saw them very close! We even saw a young leopard, tons of zebras, elephants (we almost could touch them but of course DONT!), we saw lions 3 times, hippos, monkeys, impalas in the thousands, and so much much much more. I just didn't want to leave, but we were so blessed and we saw everything! After the game drive we went back to the lodge to relax and eat. Then we headed back to Dar es Salaam on day 3. On the way back we stopped a couple of times to drink coconut water, buy some veggies and fruits. It was super cool. We were so sad to leave Obed and Alphonse, but we really hope to see them again very soon as this will not be our last trip with them! Thanks again to Obag African Safari for such an amazing adventure! Thanks Obed!

Great experience!
As my previous comment got half lost, I would like to add that guys from that tour company were really nice and friendly and always on time which we highly appreciated. The way from Dar es Salaam was long but funny and they took good care of us offering water, soft drinks and snacks all the way. We had 3 days safari starting with river safari, next full day safari in Nyerere national park and on last day they took us back to the port so we could continue our vacation. I must say that due to the rainy weather, the driving itself was an experience, but our driver was very skilled on those roads and we felt always safe. I can highly recommend Obag African Safaris- it's the best you can find!

It was an amazing experience and we are lucky that we met a really kindly tour operator!
If you are planning to go to Tanzania, I definitely recommend that you choose Obag African Safaris.
From the moment you are picked up and dropped off after 3 days it is an incredibly well organized safari. All your wishes are taken into account. You are literally the boss of your own trip and you have 2 new friends who are helping you with everything. It is worth it and the price/quality ratio is also perfect. The accomodation where you will stay is clean and well organized. I could go on for a long time, but you have to go and experience it.
In short, thank you Obed. It was amazing and see you soon!
