Perfect Safari
I chose Savannah Explores for our 10 days trip to Tanzania, and I’m someone who really cares about details. About six months in advance, I contacted more than 30 agencies on Safari Bookings, compared them carefully, and went through multiple rounds of questions and discussions. By the time I booked, I already had a good understanding of safaris. Savannah Explores still managed to exceed my expectations.
First of all, a big thank you to our consultant Agustin. Agustin was extremely helpful from the start. He understood our needs, adjusted the itinerary quickly, and gave great suggestions. Driving from Ngorongoro to Serengeti instead of flying turned out to be a highlight. We saw huge numbers of zebras and wildebeests, plus lions, cheetahs, and even a serval cat. When we had a last-minute change in group size, he also helped coordinate with lodges and minimized our losses.
Then we met our guide, Gerald, or Gerry. Honestly, I would give him a 10/10 without hesitation. He is warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. During drives, he constantly shared knowledge about wildlife and local culture, and even quizzed us in a fun way to see if we remembered what we learned. Later, even the guide at Asilia Namiri Camp complimented us and said Gerald must be a great teacher. Professionally, he is outstanding. His driving skills are excellent, and his ability to spot animals is incredible, almost like having built in binoculars. What looked like a tiny dot to us, he could immediately identify. In the Ngorongoro Crater, he managed to show us seven rhinos in one day, which we know is already very lucky.
More importantly, Gerald taught us something beyond just seeing animals. He showed us that safari is not about ticking off the lists or rushing for photos, but about patience and truly experiencing the wildlife. He never rushed us and was always willing to stay out late just so we could enjoy the moment a bit longer.
Thank you, Gerald, for your dedication, your quiet sense of responsibility. You made this safari truly special. My brother and his wife will be visiting Tanzania at the end of June, and I have already recommended Gerald to them. I am sure he will create another unforgettable experience.
Thank you Savannah Explores for respecting and truly caring about your clients. You gave us a perfect safari trip. See you again in Tanzania.

Very perfect Sarari tour！Perfect guide Isaac！
Savannah is a very good travel agency — it offers competitive prices, also has WeChat customer service for Chinese tourists, and has a great team of guides. Isaac is an excellent guide: friendly, reliable, hardworking, and a very steady driver. He understood our needs, and we are truly grateful that with his help we saw so many animals — three leopards, ten rhinos, as well as many lions and cheetahs. We basically saw almost every animal! We really wish Isaac all the best in his future work, and we hope you will be our guide again the next time we come to Tanzania.
