ZAMUNDA SAFARI IS THE BEST
Wow!we had the most wonderful time on our 4-day safari from Zanzibar. We were greeted at every turn with friendly staff and all of our Tented lodge options were perfect. Morgan was our guide and he went above and beyond to make sure that we were able to see all of the animals on our trip as well as so many unique experiences. He was very kind and made us feel comfortable and safe. I highly suggest using Felix and taking your time to enjoy all that Tanzania has to offer!

Very bad experience with Zamunda Tours & Safaris
We, a couple in our late 20s, would like to give our honest feedback on Zamunda Tours & Safaris.
First of all, we've only given positive feedback so far, but unfortunately, that doesn't apply to Zamunda Tours & Safaris.
Furthermore, we've experienced safaris before.
After paying a deposit of 25% of the quoted price, the service generally left a lot to be desired, specifically delayed responses (several days, previously immediate response).
Our safari began with an airport transfer in Zanzibar.
Our hotel there was near Makunduchi.
We were picked up by a taxi driver.
It was repeatedly discussed and firmly agreed with Zamunda Tours & Safaris that our luggage, which we didn't want to take with us on safari, would remain in Makunduchi and, after the safari, would be taken to our next hotel in Kendwa, including us.
Fortunately, the taxi driver informed us that if we left our luggage in Makunduchi, we would be taken from the airport to Makunduchi after the safari ended and then to our new hotel in Kendwa, even though we had arranged something completely different with Zamunda Tours & Safaris.
Since we didn't want to do that, as it would have involved a 4.5-hour drive after the flight, the taxi driver offered to take our luggage and store it at his home.
The next point of criticism concerns the pickup at the airport in Arusha.
Every safari company was there on time with a name sign upon arrival, except for Zamunda Tours & Safaris.
But that wasn't the only thing:
We were told on WhatsApp that Zamunda Tours & Safaris would be there.
A guide from another company eventually called and, since there was no response on the other line, passed the call on to us. I didn't receive a response either.
Zamunda Tours & Safaris finally showed up a few minutes later, and the remaining 75% was paid.
The offer advertises that the game drive begins immediately upon arrival and lasts until the evening.
We define a game drive as a drive in a national park with possible sightings of free-roaming and wild animals.
The first two hours involved driving on a highway, so it had little to do with a game drive.
In Tarangire National Park, we had a net game drive time of 3.5 hours, meaning it didn't last until the evening.
That evening, the next surprise came:
We had booked a lodge with a pool, but we ended up staying in a much cheaper lodge without a pool.
The next day, we were supposed to be on a game drive from morning to afternoon.
However, here too, our net game drive time was shorter (to be precise: four hours). This net time is still quite good, though, because we left the lodge as early as possible at our request.
The experiences in the two parks (Tarangire & Ngorongoro) were, of course, unique, but we would recommend everyone to book and take this trip with a different provider.
Zamunda Tours & Safaris also received this feedback personally, but all they offered was an apology and a lack of understanding at first.
Not to mention a small compensation, which would have been the least we could have done (downgrading our accommodation without being informed).

Perfect organization great safari
We had an absolutely amazing time on our safari in Tanzania with Zamunda tours! Saw so many animals and our guide Morgan was brilliant, really knowledgeable and great at finding the best spots to see all the animals.
The lodges was all great and the staff were very welcoming. Efficient organisation for flights from ZANZIBAR, airport transfers and accommodation managing different people on different schedules.

Great 4 day safari experience
My girlfriend and I had an unforgettable safari experience and Zanzibar beach holiday ! Willy, our guide, was great—very knowledgeable, engaging, and impressively skilled at spotting wildlife even from afar.
The lodges exceeded our expectations: nestled in breathtaking surroundings, it offered a perfect blend of comfort and immersion in nature.
The staff were warm and attentive, and the chef went above and beyond to accommodate our dietary needs. We can’t recommend this safari and Zamunda tours highly enough—it was the adventure of a lifetime!

The best 2 day safari from zanzibar including domestic flights
We did a two day safari starting from Zanzibar covering Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangeri
National park. We had two lovely days spotting a lot of animals including the big five in a very short period of time. We will recommend the safari with Zamunda tours to oir friends. Our guide, Willy, was very professional and we would recommend him to our friends and family.

Great 3 day safari from Zanzibar !
Zamunda tours has a very smooth operation! The airport pick up and drop offs are a huge help, and all the staff at Zamunda tours are lovely people! The chef we had during our safari (Ali) made quality food every day & night. Our tour guide Morgan was an absolute outstanding!
He made sure we are all on the same page, and was a master in getting us into the right spots to see the animals. You’re very lucky if you have Morgan as your guide! All n all the perfect safari trip ever

🦒 JUST WOW 👌
Amazing and unique 4 day safari from Zanzibar experience. Everything very well organized, the safari jeep was very comfortable, clean and every seat has a separate charger if you want to charge your phone and camera. Our driver Willy very experienced guide with very good knowledge about the animals and the country. The Tented lodge experience it's very safe, and the food couldn't be better, very delicious.

Wonderful safari experience including flights from Zanzibar
I am so grateful that we found Zamunda tours. Ester assisted us plan our trip and answered my dozens of emails with patience and clarity. SHe assisted me every step of the way and calmed my nerves about all of the unknowns. The trip itself was perfection. Our local guides/excursions, our main safari guide Morgan, and the lodges were fabulous. Our flight to Zanzibar was altered, and Ester guided us through that process with ease. It was nice to have someone readily available while we were in Tanzania. We had the tour that we wanted-safari, culture, and relaxation by the Zanzibar beach. We were impressed with this company every step of the way. I will recommend this company to all my family and friends

Spectacular well run safari
Salim got everything well planned and organised for us and it all ran smoothly, but the real hero was our tour guide William. He was very skilled with his wildlife knowledge but also radio network and friend network. He found for us everything we could hope to see in 4 days - thanks. Our trainee David was also coming on exceptionally well and will soon be a full guide in his own right. Ask for these guys to be tour guides if you can. 😀
