The guide Owen is amazing!
Owen, our guide, was amazing! He explained everything about the park and the animals that live there. We managed to see every animal possible. We recommend going with him on the safari! He's also a safe driver.

An Unforgettable Safari in Nyerere & Ruaha
I had an amazing safari experience in both Nyerere National Park and Ruaha National Park.
One of the highlights of this trip was finally seeing African wild dogs, which I had dreamed of seeing for a very long time. I was incredibly fortunate to see them in both Nyerere and Ruaha, and each experience was completely different and unforgettable.
In Nyerere, I was able to see a pack of African wild dogs from surprisingly close range. Seeing these beautiful wild animals right in front of me was truly an incredible experience. After dreaming about seeing them for so long, being able to observe them so closely in their natural habitat became one of the most memorable moments of my entire trip.
Our guide in Nyerere, Maarufu, was absolutely wonderful. When I told him which animals I wanted to see, he understood exactly what I was hoping for and worked incredibly hard to find them. He was very kind and knowledgeable, and whenever we found an animal I had been hoping to see, he seemed just as excited and happy as we were. It was clear that he genuinely loves wildlife and wanted us to have the best possible safari experience.
In Ruaha, we were guided by Michael and Dickson. They were also extremely friendly, attentive, and dedicated to finding the animals we were hoping to see. They listened carefully to our requests and put a great deal of effort into searching for wildlife.
Ruaha itself offered a completely different experience from Nyerere. The dramatic landscape, with rocky terrain, hills, and rugged scenery, was absolutely spectacular. Driving through such breathtaking scenery while searching for wildlife was an experience in itself.
One of the most unforgettable moments was seeing a pack of African wild dogs running through this spectacular landscape. In Nyerere, I had the incredible experience of seeing my long-awaited African wild dogs from close range, while in Ruaha, I watched them running freely through a breathtaking wilderness. The two experiences were completely different, but both were unforgettable.
Nyerere has its own unique beauty, with vast open landscapes and beautiful waterways where many animals gather. Ruaha, on the other hand, has a much more rugged and dramatic landscape, with constantly changing scenery as you drive through the park.
I was amazed by how different the two parks were, even though both offered an incredible safari experience in Tanzania. Each park has its own character and unique attractions, and I am very glad that I had the opportunity to visit both.
I would like to give a special thank you to our three guides, Maarufu, Michael, and Dickson. Wildlife is unpredictable, and of course there is never any guarantee that you will see a particular animal. However, they understood exactly what I wanted to see and worked tirelessly to make those wishes come true. Thanks to their dedication, I was able to see the African wild dogs I had dreamed about in both parks.
I would also like to sincerely thank the tour operator who arranged this safari according to my personal wishes. Rather than simply putting together a standard itinerary, they took the time to understand what animals I wanted to see and what kind of safari experience I was looking for. I believe that this personalized planning was a major reason why the trip was so satisfying.
The combination of spectacular landscapes, incredible wildlife, and, most importantly, such kind and dedicated guides made this a truly unforgettable safari experience.
Thank you so much to Maarufu, Michael, Dickson, and the tour operator for making this trip so special.
If I have the opportunity to visit Tanzania again, I would be very happy to travel with you again.

It was incredible
The tour is highly recommended! The guides really make an effort to make sure you get to see as many animals as possible. They are very friendly and attentive, and they always try to stop at the best spots so you can see the animals up close. They also share interesting information and facts about the animals along the way. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this tour to others. David and Saloniki were our guides, it was very funny with them

It was incredible!
I had such a wonderful experience at the farm! Everything felt very relaxed and peaceful, and we were able to see all of the animals. The guides were absolutely amazing — so kind, friendly and attentive. They explained everything really well and were very informative, while always making sure that the animals were comfortable and not disturbed.
You could really tell that the animals’ well-being was their priority, which made the whole experience feel very respectful and special. I would definitely recommend this place to others and will happily tell people about this experience. It was truly a lovely experience!
The Name of the Guides are David and Saloniki. :)

With many options to pick from, go here for a personal touch.
The communication with the organizer is top notch. It can be difficult to tell what your day will be like if this is your first pne day safari, but good communication really helped.
Transfer service great. Clean, personal.
I would ask for Michael as your tour guide if at all possible. Throughout the day I got to observe other companies and tour guides and so many seemed distant (just there for the money?), which couldnt be further from my experience.
Save yourself the trouble and just go here and ask for Michael.

once in a lifetime adventure
We went on the safari with our guide Nuhu, and it was absolutely amazing! Nuhu was knowledgeable about every animal and really made an effort to show us as many as possible. He was also able to answer all our questions and took great care of us. We spent the whole day from morning till evening in the national park, and it was simply incredible. We managed to see four lions, two of them against the backdrop of a stunning sunset! We’ll never forget this day!
Staying at Camp Bastian was pleasant. There was something for everyone at the food and the camp was clean. The journey to Mikumi was okay to do, we were picked up after the ferry and taken to the train. The drive was long but okay, the only overwhelmed moment was at the ferry. Because as a foreigner it can be a bit stressful.
All in all we are very happy that we did this safari!!
