Excellent 5-day Safari trip with Samora explorers
5/5

We have had the pleasure of going on a 5-day Safari trip in Tanzania with Samora explorers and we can't recommend them enough!

From first contact with Samora explorers via email we were met with a friendly, professional and helpful attitude. We got to customize the itinerary to best fit our schedule and according to our preferences, always receiving response to any questions in a timely manner.

On the Safari we went to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and lake Manyara with our awesome and knowledgeable guide Bernard. Thanks to him we got to see a lot of animals including the big 5. He was always taking care of us and making sure we had a good time.

We also had our own chef(!) Elibariki with us during the whole trip who prepared delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. Even for lunch during the safari he prepared proper hot meals, unlike some other groups we saw that got lunch boxes with sandwiches and chips.

This has been one of the most amazing trips of our lives and it would not have been the same without Bernard and Elibariki! Once again, we really recommend Samora explorers for safari trips in Tanzania.

Better than we could have hoped for!
5/5

Emidy at Samora Explorers provided the trip of a lifetime! This Safari exceeded all expectations. Not only did we see the Big 5, I love reptiles and got to see a crocodile and python as well. We cannot wait to return with our kids and do a longer trip so that we can continue learning and enjoying with Emidy. Already recommending to our friends.

Hi Garrett,

It makes us incredibly happy to know that your safari turned out to be even better than you had hoped for!

Having the chance to see the Big Five, along with a crocodile and python, must have made the adventure even more exciting — especially as someone who loves reptiles.

We are particularly touched that you are already thinking about coming back with your children for a longer safari. Knowing that you would choose Emidy again to continue discovering and learning about Tanzania is a wonderful compliment.

Thank you for spreading the word about Samora Explorers. We cannot wait to welcome your family back and create more special memories together.

Tanzania will always have another wild adventure waiting for you. Karibu tena!

Perfect 7-day journey up Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route with Samora Explorers
5/5

My mother and I did a 7 day trek up Mt Kilimanjaro via the Lemosho route, and when we got down to the gate on our last day, I wanted to turn around and go right back up. It was an amazing trip, and the Samora team was fabulous. The other people in our group cancelled at the last minute so it was only the two of us, and the guides and porters made us feel like royalty. Seeing groups with other companies, I was so grateful that our guides, Gadiel and Felix, were so patient and relaxed with us, and the porters were all so kind and happy. It felt like a great group of friends. Gadiel and Felix shared a lot of knowledge with us about the mountain, the plants and animals, and the people who make these treks possible. They were conscientious about our health and safety and made sure to check in constantly about how we were handling the altitude. We both felt a little rough at different points, and they took care of us and made sure we got to the summit healthy and happy. We were blown away at the fresh meals prepared by the chef, Elibariki, and had more than we could possibly eat. They were all flexible and patient with us, and treated my mother so sweet. My only regret was that we could not stay longer!

Hi Alyssa,

Your review truly made us smile! ❤️ Knowing that you and your mother reached the summit of Kilimanjaro feeling healthy and happy, and that you were already wishing you could turn around and climb again, is incredibly special.

A huge thank you for recognizing Gadiel, Felix, Elibariki and our wonderful porters. Their patience, care and attention to your safety, especially during the challenging moments with altitude, are exactly what we want every guest to experience.

We are also so pleased that you enjoyed the fresh meals and the knowledge shared about the mountain, its nature and the local people. It sounds like our team became more than just a trekking crew — they became part of your adventure and your memories.

Thank you for choosing Samora Explorers for such an important journey with your mother. We are honoured to have been part of it.

The summit may be behind you, but Kilimanjaro will always be waiting for your next adventure. Karibu tena!

5/5

Wow! The Safari was really amazing! The guide was very friendly, attentive and good. Also the food was very delicious!!!
The price-performance ratio is in comparison to other Safaris very good! We did the Safari as a family but both kids are over 18, so sitting all day in the Safari-car wasn’t a problem:) Also the tour operator and the tour guide checked on us often so we felt like we are in very good hands. The german of them is also very good!!!

Amazing expirience that we can really recommend.

Extraordinary experience we‘ll never forget with the best team - highly recommended!
5/5

From the moment we got in touch with Iddy we knew we had made the right choice. Iddy responded super fast to our emails and was never tired to answer any question we had. We booked a private 6 day camping tour to Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro, Lake Manyara. Payment ahead went very smoothly and reliable.

The trip was perfectly tailored to our needs and of our two sons (aged 8&11) who loved every minute of it. Our guide Erick never got bored of the endless question of our kids and surprised us with his extensive knowledge in perfect English and German. Our chef Albarick cooked up amazing food on a camping stove - always a highlight at breakfast, lunch or dinner time. Thank you both for making this trip so special for us.

We saw the big 5 in the Serengeti in one day! Thank you Erick for your knowledge of the area and your unbelievable eagle eyes :-) We can highly recommend a trip with Samora Explorers and have already recommended the company to anyone who asks us about the trip!

Hi Andrea,

What a wonderful review to receive! We are so happy to hear that your 6-day family camping safari was everything you hoped for and that your two sons enjoyed every moment of the adventure.

It is especially lovely to know that Erick had the patience to answer all those questions from your young explorers while sharing his knowledge in both English and German. And seeing the Big Five in a single day in the Serengeti is certainly a memory your family will never forget! 🦁🐘🦏

A special thank you as well for recognizing Albarick and his amazing cooking. Fresh meals prepared at camp can make such a difference, and we are delighted that breakfast, lunch and dinner became highlights of your days.

We truly appreciate your trust in Samora Explorers, from the planning and payment process through to the safari itself. Thank you for recommending us so warmly to others!

Karibu tena Tanzania — we would love to welcome your family back for another unforgettable adventure!
