Great value for money
Overall the safari was quite reasonably priced and good value for money, despite not being the cheapest.
They are easily contactable via email or WhatsApp and they respond quickly.
The safari operators they sub-contracted to for Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro were professional and experienced. Accommodation and food during the safaris depend on the campsite and will be pretty much the same regardless of operator.
Their Arusha based tours were alright, decent but nothing spectacular. The Arusha hotel they put me in had a good location, but the food was below average.

Customer centric and care taking safari tour operator. Easy to reach at any time and very flexible.
We travelled as a family of four for totally 7 days with Ngekewa. Over the last half year we had several exchanges with Ngekewa and could find a very suitable itinerary with Safary, Biking, Hiking etc. The organization was very good and especially the hired safari driver was an absolute asset in this whole time.
During the Safari we had daily messages from Ngekewa if everything is alright and if we need anything. We felt very much taken care of which is a kind of good feeling while spending a lot of time in the wilderness.
The hotel, lodge choices were good. Unfortunately 2 of our booked lodges, one in the Ngorongoro area and one at the lake Manyara were changed last minute without any pre-warning before arriving to Tanzania. This was a bit of a disappointment as both lodges would have been surrounded by wildlife and we had the potential of having wild animals in the camp. Nonetheless Ngekewa was organizing very good alternatives and we did not miss anything.
Overall - If you are keen for a non-standard, non-mass-tourism experience with a lot of flexibility and excellent customer care. —> this is you tour operator!

Excellent
The tour was great and our tour guide, William made our trip so memorable, he was an absolute gem, so informative, knowledgeable and kind! Just slightly disappointed that we missed visiting the foothills of Kilimanjaro eventhough our group was ready on time as per the tour operator. Other than that, great experience and would recommend.

Life changing trip
We booked through Ngekewa and had an incredible experience. We got very lucky and witnessed a river crossing (they knew this was important to us). The operator Sarah was very responsive and patient with my constant questions. She was happy to fulfill all of our requests. Thanks again!

Great budget safari
I booked this safari with my boyfriend. We did a 5 day tour through Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. This was an incredible experience. We did camping and were very happy with the price. The vehicle, tour guide and food was all perfect. We also added the Materuni waterfall and coffee tour which was nice but a bit of long drive. Overall was an amazing trip.

raw a d unforgettable safari experience friendly and professional
Our guide was absolutely amazing — full of wisdom, knowledge, and incredibly attentive to every little detail. He spoke *perfect French*, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable and easy to follow from start to finish.
The car was a bit old at first glance, but once we hit the road, we understood why — the adventure tracks are real! Even a one-year-old car would show signs of the journey here.
Ngorongoro Crater was absolutely *breathtaking*. Standing up through the special high roof and taking in the views as we drove was a highlight on its own — such a small detail, but it made a huge difference and added to the thrill of the entire journey.
The food throughout the tour was *incredible*. We chose one of the more affordable packages, so we stayed in simple lodges, but they were way above our expectations — *all* of them had swimming pools, which was such a treat after long days on the road. For the price we paid, the quality of accommodation really surprised us in the best way.
We spent two nights in the Serengeti — one at Nyani Campsite, which is open to self-drive tours as well. It was *the* experience. Sleeping in a tent out in the bush, with guards keeping watch and the sounds of nature around us, was both a little scary and completely unforgettable. That night under the stars, waking up to the sunrise in the wild, is something we’ll always remember.
The next lodge in the Serengeti wasn’t luxurious, but it was big, clean, and had a pool again. Perfect after a day of game drives. The company also had a photographer with us, capturing moments along the way — a lovely extra touch.
Every meal was delicious, and honestly, we don’t know what else to say except *thank you*. This wasn’t just a holiday — it was a real adventure. Peaceful, wild, and something we’ll carry with us forever

Top-notch tour operator with exceptional services and expert guides ensuring a great safari.
Tanzania is a land of wonders, and my recent safari with Ngekewa Tours and Safaris truly encapsulated that magic. From the moment our adventure began, every detail was meticulously planned, always on time, with an exceptionally knowledgeable and engaging tour guide who brought every landscape to life.
Exploring the Ngorongoro Conservation Area was nothing short of breathtaking. The vast, untouched vistas and the vibrant array of wildlife made every moment feel like a scene from a nature documentary. The sheer beauty of the conservation area left me spellbound, and it was clear that every aspect of the trip was designed to offer an immersive, unforgettable experience.
Overall, this safari was a perfect blend of professional service and raw natural beauty. For anyone looking to experience Tanzania in its most authentic form, I highly recommend setting off on a journey with Ngekewa Tours and Safaris you won't be disappointed!
