Absolutely the best experience
5/5

I like to travel internationally and I am always looking for something new and exciting. About 2 years ago I decided to go on Safari so started planning. I researched companies in Tanzania and found Savannah Explorers. From the beginning the whole experience was top notch. This was complicated trip as I was leading a group of 28 people. Savannah Explorers executed the trip flawlessly. The entire experience from the day they picked us up to the day they dropped us at the airport was excellent. As one can imagine, running a trip with 28 people presents its own set of issues. In two years I sent and received over 500 emails working on this trip. The folks at Savannah met the challenge and never made it seem like I was being a bother. The choice of lodges and camps were perfect for our group. That being said, the actually safari was astounding. We say all of the big 5 including a fairly close encounter with a Rhino. Our group had 4 guide/drivers and although my experience was with Abyia, who was excellent, all of the other vehicles had equally glowing reviews of their guides/drivers. I rarely write reviews on trips. I think that people tend to write about the things they do not like but I have zero negative comments about this operation

Gerry is one of the most knowledgeable and helpful people I've met. Great sense of humor.
5/5

I can't overstate how wonderful this experience was. From the communication ahead of our bookings through to the end of our trip, savannah explorers was an excellent company to work with. Their team was super knowledgeable and helpful, fielding LOTS of emails and accommodating all of our requests and needs.

Gerry, our driver, was particularly wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the local area and wildlife, had a great sense of humor, and was exceedingly patient and helpful. Highly recommended all around.

We got to see everything that we were expecting to and more and the well tailored schedule made traveling to our different destinations a breeze. If you're going on a safari, definitely go with Savannah Explorers. Ask for Gerry!

An amazing experience!
5/5

I spent moments that I never imagined: an experience beyond my expectations, an unique safari!
My guide, Nasoro, was amazing. He was an ideal trip mate, with an in-depth knowledge of animals and their habitats, who also explained to me many uses and habits of Tanzania and its people: safe and prudent driving even in the most adventurous moments.
Savanna Explorers planned excellent accommodation in high-level structures and an unforgettable experience in the Serengeti Park.

Our group of 14 had 3 drivers- Paul, Timba, and Jackson. Each driver exceeded all expectations
5/5

Our group of 14 shared three drivers during our tour, Timba, Jackson, and Paul. We thoroughly enjoyed their professionalism, kindness, and patience as we had 6 kids on our group. They were courteous and thoughtful in listening to feedback and preferences.

Accommodations varied and we preferred some over others. We didn’t clarify a specific budget per night, which could have helped set expectations. As well, researching the accommodations.

Now that our trip is over, I would suggest spending more time in Central Serengeti, we only spent on day/ night. I could have done two.

Overall, an incredible experience that I really feel was made extra special by our tour guides.

An amazing week!

We had an unforgettable time and enjoyed every minute of our safari. Our guide Daniel was awesome. His knowledge about the animals and the whole wildlife is amazing. He drove us safely around throughout the whole trip. Everything was superbly planned and organised by Savannah Explorers. The accommodations were fantastic.
Thanks for a 5-star holiday.

A very well prepared guide

Thomas of the Savannah Explorer company is a knowledgeable and knowledgeable guide. He has extensive knowledge of all 3 parks we visited. His preparation and availability allowed us to see practically all the animals in the parks. Highly recommended. Very lucky whoever finds him as a guide.

Unique experience !
5/5

Well done to the entire Savannah Explorer team, who were very professional, and especially to Alex, our consultant with whom we organized this trip to the 3 parks (Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara). It was unforgettable, you just let yourself be guided and enjoy this wonderful country. Our Babou guide (exceptional!) in the parks was perfect, giving us lots of information about his country and speaking good French. Thanks again Alex, Conrad and Babou.
