Expertly crafted safari and Zanzibar tour
5/5

When deciding which tour operator to use, I had narrowed down my choice to about six different tour operators - all of which were based in Tanzania. I chose to go with Savannah Explorers based upon the numerous five star reviews as well as the value that I felt I was getting for my money. Let me just say that I was not disappointed with my decision. I booked about a year in advance through Agustin who customized a 12-day safari/Zanzibar trip for me. He was always available to answer every question, provide great advice, and to put every concern to rest. Always responded to me within 24 hours.
When we landed in Kilimanjaro, our guide for the next 8 days, Juma, was there to greet us. Juma treated us like we were family. Such a great guide! Very knowledgeable about the behaviors of the animals and birds, and has a relentless spirit about him when it comes to finding the animals. He would talk with the other guides along the roads and listen to the radio chatter to hear which animals were being spotted and where, and then get us over there promptly so we could see. We drove over countless dirt roads in what seemed to be the middle of nowhere, but Juma knew his way around and always seems to know where to find the animals. I saw more animals than I had even hoped for. Many big cats, lions, leopard, cheetah, elephant, zebra, giraffe, wildebeest migrating across the Mara River, hippos, gazelle, monkeys, baboons, and so many more. Also, the hot air balloon was a great decision to add into our trip. Seeing the Serengeti from the air was such an experience.
I highly recommend Savannah Explorers. They are a first class tour operator. Ask for Juma! He will take excellent care of you.

Unforgettable safari with Elisha!
5/5

Our recent trip to Tanzania was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to the impeccable service and guidance provided by Elisha. From the moment we landed at Kilimanjaro Airport, Elisha was there to greet us with a sign bearing our name, making us feel welcomed and at ease.

**Efficient Use of Time and Cultural Insights**

On the first day, we efficiently traveled to Karatu, maximizing our time from the get-go. During the journey, Elisha shared fascinating insights about Tanzanian towns and culture, enriching our experience beyond just sightseeing.

**Exciting Wildlife Encounters**

Our second day took us through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area en route to the Serengeti. We were thrilled to see giraffes up close, a truly exhilarating experience. Elisha offered invaluable advice at a roadside shop, suggesting we avoid purchasing items at higher prices elsewhere.

At the Ngorongoro gate, we purchased an animal checklist, which became a cherished souvenir. It allowed us to track the animals we saw, learning their names in both English and Swahili. This added an educational layer to our adventure.

**Serengeti Wonders and Balloon Safari**

Entering the Serengeti, we were immediately greeted by the sight of two majestic male lions. This was just the beginning; we also encountered cheetahs, hippos, elephants, zebras, and leopards, each sighting more awe-inspiring than the last.

The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the early morning balloon ride. The serene dawn over the savannah, with gazelles and giraffes gracefully moving below, was breathtaking. Viewing the landscape and wildlife from above was a unique and unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Serengeti. The tour was organized through a company called Miracle Experience. Their professionalism was evident from the pilot's thorough and engaging demonstration, ensuring we felt safe and informed throughout the journey.

**A Memorable Guide**

Most importantly, Elisha, our tour guide, made this journey truly special. His profound knowledge of wildlife, personal stories, and insights into safari vehicles enriched our understanding and appreciation of Tanzania. We look forward to returning and would undoubtedly request Elisha as our guide again.

This trip was a perfect blend of adventure, education, and relaxation, all thanks to the exceptional service and experiences provided.

A knowledgeable and friendly person
5/5

I joined a 4-night, 5-day safari tour covering Tanzania's Ngorongoro National Park and Serengeti National Park. Our driver and tour guide was a man named Elisha. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the various animal species and their behaviors, and he skillfully exchanged information with other drivers to guide us to different locations. Thanks to him, we were able to see as many as 30 different species over four days, including lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, jackals, gazelles, and baboons. The hotels we stayed at were also wonderful, especially the Meliá Serengeti Lodge, where the food, service, rooms, and cleanliness were all top-notch.

Perfect organisation
5/5

Savannah Explorers is a very organised tour operator. We found ourselves very well from all points of view.
We visited three different parks during the safari: Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
The organization was excellent and we had no problems of any kind, in fact we lived a unique experience.
It was possible to observe many animals, much more than we imagined and very beautiful landscapes.
Perfect and very good also the picnic lunch.
The experience was beautiful also thanks to our guide Ibra who was always very attentive, patient, kind and gave us every explanation of what we were doing and seeing.
We highly recommend

Amazing experience
5/5

We recently returned from an unforgettable trip organized by Savannah Explorers, and we couldn't be more thrilled with our experience. Our journey began with a 5-day safari, followed by a trip to Zanzibar. It was truly the best trip of our lives.
From the very beginning, Micky was incredibly easy to communicate with. He was responsive, answering all our questions quickly and thoroughly, and he had a solution for every concern or problem that arose.
During the safari, we were fortunate to have Maulidy as our guide. He was nothing short of amazing—truly a professional in every sense of the word. His deep knowledge of the wildlife and local environment made each game drive an enriching experience. He was also incredibly friendly and attentive.
Lodges and hotels were comfortable and provided excellent service. The staff were warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with any needs we had.
