Unforgettable Safari Trip
5/5

After researching tons of safari operators we settled on booking with topy tours and it certainly did not disappoint!

We were assigned Ben as our wonderful guide and quite frankly he made our whole safari experience unforgettable and mesmerising!!

His knowledge of the safari and his attention to details were really appreciated. He went over and beyond to ensure we saw the big five and even suggested a few tweaks to our itinerary to maximise our safari experience. Our successful trip was all down to him!

We made a slight adjustment to the tail end of our trip and we had a bit of agro with the logistics from Jackson but luckily after a lot of back and fourth this was sorted. Word of advice to future travellers is to make sure everything is in writing so that you have proof of what was requested and so the quote is accurate and they don't try to increase the price after what was agreed.

We are happy we booked with Topy tours because we got the superstar Ben as our guide and would not hesitate to recommend them for your safari trip, you'll be in a very safe and capable pair of hands with him!

5/5

Jackson the tour operator greeted us after we arrived in Arusha, a very warm greeting! The next day Joseph our tour guide picked us up, there were 7 of us, some of our friends from NY had never been to Africa before! We enjoyed our selves so much! Saw 14 lions, a cheetah, leopard, all the Big 5 and then some. It was truly amazing! You must book with Topy!

organized, timely, responsive, and providing a quality experience
5/5

In late November 2025, a nine-day private tour for my husband and me, was provided by Topy Tours in Arusha, Tanzania. From the initial contact with Jackson at Topy Tours, communication was prompt, all questions answered completely, and prices stated. The tour was outlined and the proposed itinerary experienced.
Our guide, Joseph, was patient, knowledgeable, accommodating, and willingly answered questions about culture, politics, ecology, landscape formation, and many other topics. He quickly understood our desires and made suggestions to customize the tour for us. His knowledge and demeanor were outstanding.
The wildlife encountered ranged from cheetahs, leopards, lions, and elephants to warthogs and leopard tortoises. We are interested in birds. Joseph found and helped identify numerous species.
The Topy Tour safari took us to a wide variety of landscapes with few other tourists and a great abundance of wildlife. The size of one mixed herd of wildebeests and zebras filled our view.
We have no hesitation recommending services provided by Topy Tours.

An organization that thinks along with you and offers the trip that suits your needs
5/5

We were offered a safari trip for 12 days, according to our specific wishes and ideas. Jackson made good suggestions taking into account what we were expecting to see and we happily accepted them. He also listened to questions regarding the photography wishes and took out some chairs of the jeep so that we had lots of space to stand freely and store our equipment. Our guide Joseph was the very best guide you can wish for. When I got unfortunately ill, he not only took very good care of us, he also adapted the schedule and activities without any complaint or problem, even at moments that was kind of challenging. He knew everything about nature, the animals and culture and shared all his knowledge with us. Always with a smile and good spirit. Because of his skills, we saw so much wild life, even very close by and he listened very well to our specific wishes regarding photography. Joseph is a very good driver, took good care of the car and we felt very safe. Starting as just our professional guide and ending our trip as a real friend, leaving us even a bit emotional after being together for so many days. Asante sana!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Topy Tours
5/5

We were recommended Topy Tours, and we couldn’t be more grateful for it. From our very first message with Jackson, we felt we were in the best hands. He listened to us carefully, guided us with patience, and made sure our safari became everything we had dreamed of. He also took care of us from the moment we landed until the day we left.

Our safari was short, but thanks to our guide Joseph, a truly wonderful person with a genuine passion for what he does, it felt absolutely perfect. His dedication meant we didn’t need more days at all — we saw every single animal we hoped for, including the Big Five!

This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will stay with us forever.

We wholeheartedly recommend Topy Tours!!

Amazing 7-day safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours
5/5

We went on a 7-day private safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours for our honeymoon and had an amazing experience. Everything was organized perfectly beforehand. Our guide, Ben, went above and beyond to exceed our expactions. He spoke English perfectly, knew all the details about flora and fauna and had such a sharp vision that he spotted animals from a very far distance. More than once, other guides asked him for help because they couldn't spot the animals themselves. The hotels and lodges were beautiful and the service in every single one of them was excellent. I 100% recommend a safari tour with Quagga Topy Tours.

Brilliant Ben successfully listened to all we wanted and enhanced the experience beyond expectation!
5/5

Starting with finding the right package, Jackson was so quick to respond and helpful. Arriving at the Airport, Andrew was such a cheerful sight to welcome us and get us safely to our hotel. THEN the piece de resistance (crowning glory) was our safari guide Ben. He was so cheerful, knowledgeable and most importantly he listened to what WE wanted from the safari. He worked so hard and made such an effort to deliver what we asked and MORE! Accommodations were all very good and what we expected. The vehicle was well kept and perfect for the Tanzanian “massage” roads. All the viewings were so exceptional, from the birds, our focus, to the magnificent beobabs, fabulous wildebeasts with zebras, to the magnificent large cats. We saw it all and not just in the distance but up close and personal. Our first day walking safari in Arusha led by Michael was most informative and thrilling to be walking amongst the buffalo, giraffes and viewing the waterfall. Thank you all at Topy you really did make our dreams a reality.
HIGHLY APPRECIATED AND RECOMMENDED. Hakuna Matata.
