This is the best tour company I have ever worked with.
This was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. Mike is the front office was a pleasure to work with. He not only arranged a fantastic Safari but also made sure the accommodations we wanted were within our price point and wonderful as well as arranged flights within Tanzania and worked to secure our reservation on Zanzibar. He went above and beyond and was patient and courteous with me. He handled the questions I had from my group of 26 people effortlessly. We what’s up video called or chatted whenever it was necessary and he always responded expeditiously. The safari itself was fabulous. Imani (also company owner) came out in the field to lead our group of four vehicles over a four day tour. Our group ranged in ages from 12-77. Everyone felt well taken care of and had a wonderful time. Everyone thought their driver was the best:) This was an incredible value for the money spent. I traveled all over the world and arranged trips for large groups of friends and family and I can’t say enough about this company. You will be m excellent hands.

Luxury in the Serengeti and beyond
Imani Excursions did a great job. They took care of our every need, predicting what we would need and listening to our desires. They treated us like royalty, not letting us lift a finger. They were super informative throughout the safari. I learned so much from them. Their passion for the job shined through every minute of the way. We were a large group, over 20. This meant a lot of herding cats. The guides did this with grace and were polite in their efforts to keep us on schedule. I hope they were able to enjoy themselves as well.

Spectacular, beyond expectations
Our Tanzania safari with Imani Excursions was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, Imani and his team greeted us with such warmth and even surprised us with a thoughtful welcome gift, which set the stage for a fantastic trip.
Our guide, Muddy, was outstanding—highly professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and always attentive. His expertise helped us spot an amazing variety of animals, from elephants to cheetahs, making every game drive unforgettable. The itinerary was well-planned, blending thrilling safari drives with a memorable hike led by our guide Joshua, who was friendly, skilled, and full of great insights.
The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was delicious, with plenty of local flavors that added to the experience. To top it all off, Imani went above and beyond by treating us to a fantastic local BBQ for our farewell, completely on his own dime—a gesture that made us feel truly appreciated.
I wholeheartedly recommend Imani Excursions for anyone looking for a well-organized, memorable safari in Tanzania!

Both David and Julius were fantastic. Extremely polite and accommodating.
Upon arrival, we were greeted with drinks and goodies. If you are planning to go there book with these guys. They have great knowledge of all the animals and take you to all the great places. It was a trip of a lifetime and this company made it even better. Book with them…. You won’t be disappointed.

Imani Excursions gave us the experience of a lifetime!!
Beginning with our greeting at the airport, Imani Excursions did not disappointment through the entire trip. The owner, Imani himself came out to give us a big welcoming. Our tour guides David and Julius were always cheerful, very knowledge about the areas we visited and the animals we encountered. They knew where to find the animals. I'm still in disbelief about the heart pounding encounters we had with the animals. We came away learning about the animals, the culture and were even taught a little Swahili. Thank you David and Julius!! This is definitely something my family and especially our kids will never forget because of you.
Our accommodations were beautiful staying at Manyara's Secret and the Lahia Luxury Tent Lodge. Manyara's Secret was right on the lake with your own individual private pools. The food was delicious and staff were very welcoming and attentive. The whole place was gorgeous. In Lahia, other than the zip up walls you wouldn't even think you were in a tent. The rooms were large, huge bed and overlooked the Serengeti with the two sinks and toilet inside your tent. There was a beautiful private outdoor shower attached to your room. Animals came right up to the lodge. It was incredible walking through zebras on the way to dinner.
There are many tour companies in Tanzania. You should not hesitate in booking with Imani and his staff. You can tell that they love their jobs and are in awe with us encountering the animals even after many years of giving tours. This translated to an incredible and unforgettable experience for us. Imani Excursions made us fall in love with Tanzania and if we ever get back there we will definitely book with them again.

Best trip ever!
Taking a trip to Africa is one of the biggest trips you will take in your life so you want it to go well. When I started the journey I researched so many different safaris and read so many reviews. I kept coming back to Imani Excursions. My only draw back was that they didn’t have a lot of reviews. The reviews they did have were good so I decided to book them. I was nervous not knowing if this is a company I could trust. I can honestly tell you that you will not go wrong booking Imani Excursions. Mike was always quick to respond to all my emails about questions I had about the trip before we arrived. When we arrived we were greeted at the airport with drinks, snacks, gift, and music. What a welcome! Our safari guides Julie’s and David were with us throughout the entire trip. We felt 100% safe and were taken care of well. Imani greeted us at the airport and followed us to our first accommodation to Make sure check it went well. The accommodations we stayed at were absolutely beautiful! At Manyaras secret we had a four bedroom villa with a private full sized swimming pool. The safaris were amazing! We saw so much wildlife and up close. We saw the big 5 and much much more. We saw a lion pack of 7 with babies and all hunting baboons. Elephants rushed in trumpets and all to rescue the baboons. It looked like something you would see at Universal Studios but it was real. We have traveled all over the world and this trip is now our favorite. Look no further and book Imani Excursions. They will give you an amazing trip and take care of you well.

Simply excellent!
Wow, we don’t even know where to begin to describe how wonderful Imani Excursions is. From the very first moment, right down to the last, they’ve been nothing but amazing. The Sales team was so responsive and helpful in helping us curate the best safari & Zanzibar experience to suit our wishes. They answered all of our questions and went out of their way to make suggestions that ended up enhancing our trip.
Next, our driver. We learned so much from him, and he made our wish of seeing a cheetah come true. Actually, he found us four (4!!!) cheetahs, one of which was still a baby. It was honestly a dream.
There are truly not enough words to praise Imani Excursions. Hopefully we’ll be fortunate enough in the future to visit Tanzania again, and when we do, we will absolutely book with them again!
