RO scavenger is such an incredible company. Everyone is so kind, helpful, and thoughtful. We love it
Our Safari was such an incredible experience. Harry, our guide, is very knowledgeable about everything from animals to plants to birds. We ask a million questions and he always answers leading us to learn so much about safari and culture!
Everyday we were insanely close to animals and always the first or second car to the scene! It felt like we had all the beauty to ourselves. Lunches were amazing. I was thinking that we would be eating sandwiches everyday but I was wrong. Chicken, rice, sauces, pasta dishes, bread, fruit, desserts, and so much more exceeded my expectations.
Days were long but never seemed to be with excursions like horseback riding, game drives, night drives, hot air balloon. RO scavenger made this trip so amazing. I will think about this incredible experience everyday! Thank you!!

World Traveler - Best Experience Ever!
To celebrate my birthday, my daughter's engagement and my niece's graduation from University, I planned a trip to Africa!
Let me first start by saying, planning a Safari can be a daunting task. There are so many options to choose from, so much to see, and it is expensive to travel across the globe so you want to be sure you get the best value for your money. Trust me, it is not easy to navigate.
We wanted to capture as much as possible while in Tanzania and we packed our schedule with every opportunity!
I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years and have planned all of my family, personal and professional trips for as long as I can remember. I have OCD and micro manage every detail of a trip to ensure the best experience is had by everyone involved. I've planned trips to Russia, Greece, Australia, and the UK just to mention a few. I had never used a travel or tour company, never really needed to. This was the exception and I made the best decision ever!
From the first point of contact until the last hug goodbye it was a perfect experience, and I don't say that lightly. In the spirit of brevity I will only point out a few of the best features of the organization. Robert, Harry, Silas, Joshua and the entire team care! They are committed to ensuring everyone has an amazing experience. I was nervous about the pick up at the airport, don't be. They are standing at the door with a sign, cold beer and a smile waiting for us to arrive. The communication was outstanding, before, during and after the trip. I never had to call twice, or wait for a response more than a day. I changed our itinerary several times due to a variety or reasons, mostly my desire to stay in the best resorts, which was executed on perfectly. I added adventures along the way, horseback riding, a hot air ballon ride, a walking safari, it was all accommodated and with exceptional ease by the team.
RO set up special events at the resorts to celebrate our occasions, at every turn we were surprised and delighted with thoughtful touches.
Harry, our guide, was amazing. Always first or second on the scene to experience the animals first hand. Not only did we see the Big 5, we saw so much more thanks for Harry's expert eye and years of experience. He was so kind to us and treated us like family the whole time.
Breaks, meals and bathroom breaks were all exceptionally executed, even in the middle of the Serengeti.
I honestly can't say enough about RO. I have already started working on another adventure with them and have recommended them to all of my friends and family. They are flexible with your budget and have options in every price range just tell them what you want to see and let them work their magic.
Thanks RO, it was truly a trip of a lifetime!

Harry was exceptional, he knew all of the best spots and was so knowledgeable about the animals!
I had the time of my life!!!! Please book with Ro Scavenger Safaris!!!
This was mine and my family’s first experience in Africa and the Ro Scavenger team went so above and beyond to make sure every piece of the trip was perfect. They helped in every single detail we wanted to tweak and change during the planning process and we’re on the ball from Day 1. Joshua and Silas were great company and helped manage half of our parties flight delay, still managing to get us all to enjoy every activity we planned and keeping me entertained with a waterfall hike in the meantime. Then Harry, our guide, was immaculate. He answered every question we had about the culture, the animals, the plants, history, and everything in between. We were always one of the first on scene and even got to see all of The Big 5 in our first 4 days of being there!! I couldn’t speak more highly of this company and the experience we had!!!!!

Amazing team, that believe in customer satisfaction to make your dreams become reality.
Right from the start of our collaboration. Silas and Robert were instrumental in providing straight forward communication and details of our trip. Our 10 day safari was unique and tailored to us. This was uplifting as it was our 34rd wedding anniversary.
Our driver Edward was amazing. Edwards laughter, knowledge and great skills as a guide made for us to see all the animals on our list. The trip was well put together and our guide Edward put it over the top.
As mentioned the complete team of Ro Scavenger was amazing. We highly recommend the company for any tours. We will be back within 2 years and we will again be with Ro Scavenger.

Knowledgeable, thoughtful, and well versed in the full ecosystem that encompasses the park
I’ve been to Tarangire National Park a half dozen times, and this trip has easily been my favorite. It’s always a stunning place, but what made this visit stand out were the moments in between spotting elephants, giraffes, gazelles, lions, and more. Our guide, Joshua, brought the park to life with his deep knowledge of the ecology and ecosystem—turning every quiet stretch into an opportunity to learn something new about this dynamic landscape. His insights truly elevated an already incredible experience. I highly recommend Joshua and the team at Ro Scavenger for your next safari!

Thank you again for recommending Joshua and the entire Ro Scavenger Safaris team. We’re grateful for your trust and hope to welcome you back on another unforgettable adventure in the near future!

Unforgettable experience!
Edward took us on the most incredible 8-day safari across several national parks in Tanzania. He is not only highly fluent in English but also knowledgeable, caring, and passionate about wildlife. He always put our safety first and ensured we were comfortable, happy, and had the best possible chance to see wildlife from the best angles — which we absolutely did. His patience and professionalism made every drive both educational and fascinating. We spotted animals I never thought I’d see up close — we saw the Big Five and even a baby leopard!
The team was incredibly professional and responsive right from the initial booking. They answered all my questions promptly, provided helpful information, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I always felt well-informed and looked after.
In terms of value for money, this experience truly delivered. From quality guiding and beautiful lodges to seamless logistics and thoughtful personal touches, every dollar felt well spent. I’ve done a fair bit of travel, and this was genuinely one of the most worthwhile trips I’ve ever taken.
If you’re looking for a well organised, trustworthy, and enriching safari experience, I wholeheartedly recommend this one. I’ll definitely be back in the future!

Once in a lifetime trip with a one of a kind company that made the experience the most amazing ever
Hands down the best experience with could have possibly had. It started with phenomenal communication through email roughly 15 months prior to our trip which was to be a safari in Tanzania for 9 days followed by 3 days on the island of Zanxibar. This was for my 72-year-old father is at his his dream vacation and my twin brother and I went with him. Both Robert and Silas in the office were incredible in regards to listening to what we wanted out of the trip and scheduling exactly that. They got back to us within 24 hours during the week and even within that amount of time on weekends most times. They were open, honest and upfront about the entire process. They work with us diligently to make a trip to the locations that we wanted to see as well as sitting up accommodations in places that we want to stay including tent camps and other facilities. When plans would change on our part they were very gracious and accommodating to all of our changes. They help answer all questions and set up a seamless arrival into Tanzania. We were met by the representative, Victor, who end up being our tour guide for the 9 days in Tanzania. We could not have had a better tour guide as Victor was very knowledgeable, extremely nice, had a great sense of humor and new all of the locations of fine the most animals. We were lucky enough to see the big 5 including 3 Leopard's and a baby Leopard. We also saw all of the other animals that we could have possibly imagine as well as crocodile, lines and a honeymoon meeting.
All of the meals that we had at the hotels and picnic lunches on the safari were amazing.
When we were done with the safari and were being taken to the Arusha airport to be flown to Zanzibar we were met by Robert, the owner, and Silas from the office to follow-up with us as well as make sure that we have made it through airport security and had everything planned for the next like of a trip.
When we arrivedin Zanzibar we were met by a representative as well. The tembo house in Stone town as well as dream of Zanzibar was set up for us this places to stay and were amazing. We had a guided tour of Stone town which was incredible. We then changed our plans to just hang out on the beach for a day and a half which they accommodated well for us. We then went on a spice to her that they set up last-minute as well for us prior to flying home which was again amazing.
Hands down I would recommend this company to anyone. The price was very reasonable, the accommodations for incredible, our guide Victor was the best you could possibly have and made the trip even more memorable, the office staff and owner were incredible to work with and I honestly have nothing negative to see about our trip at all.
Thank you
