It was amazing!
Halfway June (2021) we started looking for a company to plan and book a safari with to enjoy everything Tanzania has to offer. We came across Sunset Adventures Safari and never regretted it. The safari itself was wonderful, especially how good and easily it was arranged. We could communicate in Dutch with Emma, which was really helpful to let exactly know what we wanted and expected. But the safari was beyond our expectations. The communication was quickly as well, Emma responded always very fast with good and clear ideas. Furthermore planning the safari was really comfortable and flexible, since the safari was personalized as much as possible. Also with planning the safari we did not have any trouble with the Covid-19 situation, because the cancellation policy was really flexible. We started with the first nights at the same locations and with comfortable beds, since we just came from the Kilimanjaro (also organized by Sunset Adventures Safari), this idea was advised by Emma. After all we had the most amazing safari possible thanks to Emma, our great guide Omary and excellent cook Isak. We therefore advise everyone who books a safari at Sunset Adventures Safari to ask for Omaray and Isak, you will not regret it! Omary was excellent at spotting the animals even at great distance. Furthermore he had a lot to tell about every animal, from lions to hornbills he always had something interesting to tell about them. Besides his knowledge about the animals he always had a funny joke prepared as well, he has a great sense of humor. Additionally Isak made delicious meals for us just with one gas burner. He is also very passionate about his cooking by telling exactly what he made and how he made it. It is great to see how happy he is when he comes to you with again another amazing meal.

Sunset Adventure Safari arranged a perfect 5 day safari tour.
We started from Arusha for the 5 Day Safari with our driver Omary to Tarangire National Park through the Maasai region. In the park we saw a lot of Maasai boys who were busy with cattle herding. In the park the landscape was fantastic, with lots of big baobabtrees and the typical umbrella acacia. Thanks to the sharp eye and the knowledge of Omary we saw lots of animals like lions, a group of elephants in front of the car, lots of giraffes, zebras, gnoes…
The Lake Manyara National Park was very special, driving along the border of the lake, through the forest to the hot springs. Again we saw a lot of elephants, giraffes and baboons. Some were playing on the hood of our car. Omary was never in a hurry. He took time to observe the animals and gave us a lot of opportunities to take pictures and video’s. He was an excellent driver with lots of humor: could’nt be better.
The Serengeti and Lake Ngorongoro were very different because of the yellow dry landscape with also lots of animals like zebras, gazelles, gnoes, buffalos,baboons… We were very lucky because we encountered 3 leopards eating there prey in a tree, 3 male lions passing our car to rest under a tree nearby, a cheeta preparing to hunt and a big group of hippos. The views were fantastic even with clouded weather that day.
On our way back to Arusha we wanted to make a visit to a Maasai village. We were welcomed by a group of dansers; we visited the school were children from 3 to 8 were singing to us andwe were invited to see a Maasai house. Very interesting to see how they live.
The lunches we got every day were very tastefull on a nice spot. The lodges were perfect, nice people and very tasty food. Even in the tented camp where it was not allowed to go outside by night, because of the wild animals in the surrounding. Therefore without hesitation we highly recommend this trip and driver.
Sunset Adventure Safari made a perfect arrangement for a very good price. Thanks a lot.

efficient
Our guide, Solomon, was very punctual and thanks to his guiding experience we were able to enjoy the sight of very rare animals, including lions and their cubs, cheetas and also their cubs and an amazing encounter with a leopard. The jeep was spacious, very comfortable and the game rides were unforgettable.
The lodges and the tents we had were also of very high standards, the food was excellent and served in copious quantities and all the accomodation staff was very welcoming.
However, we wouldn't recommend the "tree top canope walk" which was charged 30 USD per person and consisted in a 450m walk during which we saw a couple of monkeys (there are literally hundreds of them in the regular game ride happening in the national parc).

Posted on Oct 18, 2021Thank you so much for your review. We are happy to read you enjoyed the safari so much.
I just wanted to give feedback on the treetop walk. We don't offer this in our standard packages but at your request we have added this to the booking. Sorry to hear you were disappointed in this activity.
Kind regards, Sunset Adventure team

Provided memories for a lifetime!
We contacted three companies here on SafariBookings and choose Sunset due to price and their itinarary. We had really good communications with the company from the very beginning. Excellent English in every email and the possibility to transfer the deposit and final amount to a European bank (saving us a lot in exchange rates).
Our guide was punctual and knew a lot about the animals and parks. He seemed to know every guide, park ranger and employee at all of our stops, making us feel welcome and safe. He was also really good a finding the animals we wanted to see.
Our vehicle was old and did not seem as comfy as the others in the parks, however this was not really an issue for us - it was very authentic - but watch out for the hard brakes!! ;)
All in all, we had the adventure of a lifetime. Everything we hoped for - and more! And at a very reasonable price.

Personal and very well organized
We did a safari with Sunset Adventure Safari in October with departure from Arusha. They picked us up exactly on time and we had a well prepared good English speaking driverguide. We only had time for two parks, Tarangire N.P. and Lake Manyara N.P. , but they can offer a lot of different combinations. We also did a citytour in Arusha with them, it gives you an "easy landing" in town because they show you the most important spots! And we were lucky to see the tree-climbing lions, soo beautiful!
Communication with them was very quick and flexible. Next time we certainly would choose Sunset Adventure Safari again!
personal aproach and great guidance before and during the safari tour.
From the moment we were gathering info about a possible safari trip untill the end it was great. Good advice about the different possibilities, lovely guides and cook, Sele and Isack, and safe driving.
We had a four days safari, including camping on public campsides where the animals literally grased around the tents at night. Sele, the guide took all the time and was a safe driver and pleasant company just like Isack who joined us as the cook.
Unfortunately due to circumstances one of our group was not able to come. Even during the safari, Emma, the operator, managed to refund all the charges of entree fees.
Love to come back.

Touroperator with a personal approach combined with, flexibility, experience and knowledge!
We went on a 3-day safaritrip to Tarangire N.P., Lake Mayara N.P. and the Ngorongorocrater. It was just an amazing experience! We had a good English speaking driverguide telling us a lot about the wildlife. We stayed in a nice accommodation with a spacious room, good facilities and food. Good value for money! If we have an opportunity to go again, we certainly will book our safari at Sunset Adventure Safari!
