Amazin Experience! Thanks to Bashir - Fadhlili and Salimu
5/5

A dream thanks to Safari by Z - Bashir, Fadhlili and Salimu
Review of Safari By Z
Reviewed 2 days ago from mobile
We spent 6 fantastic days with friends from Safari by Z.
Bashir meticulously organized the trip for us.
The fantastic Fadhlili (an expert driver) who is always able to take unique roads, allowing us to find ourselves alone in fantastic situations, and the legendary Salimu (an excellent guide who speaks Italian) who with his knowledge of the territory helped us discover all the secrets of the animals seen in the savannah, turned it into magic.
With them we visited the Tarangire park, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro conservation area and the very famous Serengeti!
Thanks to them we were able to see all the BIG FIVE! And above all the very rare Leopard a few meters away from us in the Ngorongoro (a unique and rare sighting).
The strong point of the two guides is their sensitivity towards animals! Never a risky maneuver (like others do), never any disturbing actions and above all PASSION FOR YOUR JOB!
The reason why we saw so many animals is that the guides wanted to see them first! The guide on a safari is the most important thing!
We will forever thank SAFARI BY Z - Bashir, Fadhlili and Salimu for this unique and unrepeatable experience!
Asante sana!
Mattia and Cristina - from Italy

A Safari Beyond Compare: Thanks to Bashir and Fadhil from the reliable Safari by Z
5/5

We had an incredible Safari experience with Safari by Z, and it was largely due to the outstanding efforts of Bashir and Fadhil. Bashir meticulously followed the entire travel plan, leaving no room for error. His organizational skills ensured that every aspect of our safari was well - coordinated, from the moment we set out until we returned.

Fadhil, our guide and safari driver, was truly a gem. His driving skills were top - notch. Even on the rough and bumpy terrains, which are often humorously referred to as the "African Massage," he managed to navigate with such finesse that the ride was remarkably smooth. This made our long hours in the vehicle not only bearable but also quite comfortable.

What truly set Fadhil apart was his unwavering dedication to showing us the best of the wildlife. His sharp eyes and in - depth knowledge of the animals' habitats and behaviors meant that we were able to spot all the magnificent creatures we had hoped to see. He found the perfect vantage points, allowing us to observe these amazing animals in their natural environment, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

We wholeheartedly recommend Safari by Z, especially with Bashir handling the travel plan and Fadhil as the guide and driver, to anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable safari adventure. This safari was beyond our expectations, and we are extremely grateful for the seamless experience.

Excellent
5/5

Our safari experience with Safari by Z and the exceptional guide, Fadhili, was absolutely unforgettable! Fadhili’s incredible expertise and “eagle eyes” made the trip extraordinary, as he could spot animals from impressive distances. His deep knowledge of wildlife behavior and life in the wild enriched our experience tremendously.

We were amazed by how many animals we saw in just three days—lions, cheetahs, and elephants, all up close! It far exceeded our expectations, and we are truly grateful for such a remarkable experience. Fadhili’s driving skills in the comfortable and safe Land Rover added to the overall enjoyment of the trip.

If we return to Tanzania for another safari, we would undoubtedly choose Safari by Z again, with Fadhili as our guide. Highly recommended!

5/5

Amazing Safari! We can highly recommend Safari by Z and guide Fadhili! Also the booking agent Elia who arranged the trip, everything was well planed and he kept contact via whatsapp during the whole safari which felt very reassuring. Thanks to the fenomenal guide Fadhili who made this trip unforgettable! With ”eagle -eyes” he spotted animals from a far distance. He is a true talent and learned us a lot about the animals behavior and life in the wild. We didn't expect to see so many animals in just 3 days of safari, and were very greatful to see so many lions, cheetahs and elephants up close. Fadhili drove a Land rover which was very nice , felt comfortable and safe! If we going back to Tanzania for safari in the future we would definitely choose Safari by Z with guide Fadhili again.

EXCLUSIVITY AND WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE WITH THE BEST SAFARI EXPERTS
5/5

My husband and I have spent 6 days of Safari with Safari by Z visiting Tarangire, Manyara lake, Ngorongoro and Serengeti and it has been absolutely amazing.
Our guide Fadhili has been exceptional, we have seen all the animals, Rhino, Cheetah and Lion's mums with their cubs, and part of the migration.
We have been amazed and impressed with his professionalism, intensive knowledge and kindness. We have learned a lot about wildlife, culture and traditions. Thank you so much Fadhili for making this trip unique and unforgettable, you are the best!
We travelled in a Land Rover, very comfortable, always very clean inside and outside, with cold drinks and everything that you need to enjoy the experience.
The organization of Safari by Z has been perfect, they arranged everything so well, that we just had to relax and enjoy.
We have stayed on different Camps chosen by Safari by Z, and all of them have been amazing, clean, beautiful, with lovely staff and very tasty food.
This Safari has exceeded our expectations, and we are extremely grateful to Baraka and Fadhili for this magic trip.
I strongly recommend Safari By Z for and outstanding Safari experience.

Safari by Z - Tented Luxury and the Ultimate Tanzanian Adventure!
5/5

Our October 2024 safari with Safari by Z was an unforgettable adventure, blending rugged wildlife experiences with luxurious comfort. From the very start, Elia ensured every detail was planned perfectly, and our guide, Fadhili, turned the trip into a dream safari!

The magic began with the endless plains of the Serengeti, where Fadhili expertly guided us to see the “Big 5” and beyond. Not only did we witness lions in action and a leopard with a fresh kill, but we also spotted the elusive black rhino, bringing our wildlife tally to the “Big 7.” Fadhili was a master at finding even the hardest-to-spot animals and birds—his sharp eyes and deep understanding of the environment made each day a success. We were briefed every evening on the plan for the next day, and everything was organized seamlessly, allowing us to just relax and enjoy the ride.

While we were out in the wild, Safari by Z made sure we never sacrificed comfort. Staying at Mbuzi Mawe Tented Lodge and Nyumbani Serengeti Camp gave us the perfect blend of “tented luxury.” We had all the thrills of “roughing it” in the heart of nature, but with hot showers, gourmet meals, and cozy tents that made us feel right at home. Despite being in the wilderness, we felt incredibly safe throughout the entire trip, thanks to the careful planning and attention to detail by the Safari by Z team.

The experience continued into the Ngorongoro Crater, where the breathtaking views and dense wildlife felt like stepping into another world. Tarangire National Park was equally spectacular, with herds of elephants moving gracefully among the ancient baobab trees.

Fadhili’s knowledge and passion for Tanzania’s wildlife made the trip exceptional, and every moment—from the action-packed game drives to our relaxing evenings under the stars—was perfectly orchestrated by Safari by Z. If you’re dreaming of an authentic safari without sacrificing comfort, this is the team to make it happen!

Perfect Safari with the Best Guide Fadhili and Safari by Z
5/5

We had an absolutely unforgettable safari experience with Fadhili from Safari by Z. From start to finish, Fadhili was an outstanding guide—attentive, caring, and incredibly patient. He has amazing driving skills, making the bumpy tracks, aka the African Massage to be smooth and unnoticeable, which made our journey comfortable and enjoyable. But most importantly, Fadhili’s dedication to ensuring we saw every animal was remarkable! Thanks to his keen eye and expertise, we saw all the wildlife we hoped for from the best vantage points, something we’ll cherish forever. We cannot recommend Fadhili and Safari by Z enough for anyone looking for the ultimate safari adventure. This trip exceeded all our expectations!
A special thanks to Elya, who helped organize and plan our perfect safari. His patience and attention to detail ensured that everything ran smoothly, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable.
