Savannah Explorers provides an unforgettable experience.
5/5

After researching many tour companies, we chose Savannah Explorers and we are so glad we did. We spent 5 days on safari in Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti National Park. Our guide, Isaac, was an excellent driver, was very knowledgable, and spoke excellent English. He said we were "lucky" but we know we saw the Big 5 and many of Tanzania's beautiful creatures because of him. He answered all of our questions, was patient in waiting on us when we weren't quite ready to leave a place where we were watching the wildlife or were simply relaxing while having our lunch in the bush. Savannah Explorers booked amazing accommodations for our evenings after safari and for our time in Zanzibar. They made arrangements for our walking safari in Tarangire National Park and for the most amazing hot air ballon safari in northern Serengeti. The itinerary was planned out well, and a flight from Seronera Air Strip to Nungwi Beach on Zanzibar was a great experience. We can't say enough about the people there- our trip planner, Sultan, our driver, Isaac, all of the hosts and servers, the pilot of the hot air balloon, the Masaai, the beautiful children- they were so welcoming and kind to us. The people we met, the wildlife we saw, everything we experienced was made possible by Savannah Explorers. They made our first safari trip unforgettable.

Micky was responsive at all questions! Dennis was a great safari driver!
5/5

Micky was the person I contacted from the very beginning throughout the whole safari process and he was always responsive to my questions, in time and detailed which help me to be fully prepared for the trip. Dennis was the driver picked us up in Nairobi and throughout the whole Masai Mara Kenya safari joruney, He is a Masai and knowledgeable about safari animals, Masai culture, and can answer almost any question about the Safari in Kenya. He was always on time and tried all his best to get what the clients want to see. We saw ALL 4 Big 5 in Masai Mara, and Black Rhino in Ngorongoro Crater.

The GOAT
5/5

Ismail was the best driver and tour guide. He was knowledgeable, patient and friendly.

We were able to see the big 5 game by following his advise. Great work and thank you for leaving the group satisfied.

Excellent tour!!
5/5

We went on safari from Sept 28th - Oct 1st with Nickson and it was amazing! We loved having the quiet calm of our own truck. Nickson was a knowledgeable guide, and excellent driver! We saw so many animals and learnt so much, it was once in a lifetime. Thank you!

Really reliable for the total journey
4/5

Overall it is a good experience for the first time to Africa, all journey safe and sound without problems, the guide is a time management master equipped with all the animal knowledge. We have learned a lot throughout the journey.
Could be better if the guide is more aggressive for finding animals and lead the exploring part. Make the game drive as a real game and involve all the client joining in the exploring part

Fantastic
5/5

Our safari went far above anything we ever dreamed possible. Our AMAZING GUIDE Suma was well spoken and extremely knowledgeable on all things Africa ie animals, plants, history and the National Parks in general. Mix in his wit and humor and we had so much fun! The safari hit all the hot spots we were hoping to see and more. We had multiple lodging locations that differed in many ways and we fully embraced these differences. Our travel advisor Mickey was so easy to work with band dealt with our changes seamlessly.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND Savannah Explorers!!!

A memorable experience for life
5/5

This was our first time in Tanzania and our first safari and it was the best experience in our life. We have ever dreamed of seeing all these animals in their natural habitat, but if you standing in front of them, it is so much more than a holiday experience. I have planned our individual safari with Mickey and the Communication went great. Daniel was our tour guide on the safari and he did his best to give us the best safari experience. He is very fluent in English and also in German, so we could talk with each other the whole time. He tried everything to give us the best view of the animals in the national parks and also has known very good photo spots. We liked him very much.
The accommodations were the best, we ever had. We had a lodge in the Serengeti with the best view in the world. We absolutely recommend the Orangi River Luxury Lodge, we have never met so kind stuff memebers before.

Most amazing adventure!
5/5

This is our second safari with Savannah explorers, and this one was equally memorable. In January the Serengeti was greener, but during this drier season there were drier conditions, but we saw so many more animals- probably 100 lions, cheetahs, hyenas, leopards, the wildebeest migration, and everything else. Our guide, Juma, was so knowledgeable and went above and beyond to create the very best experience for us. The accommodations were all spectacular and comfortable. Staff at each site were so kind and helpful. We are already planning our next trip.
