The best experience ever
Our experience in Tanzania was truly incredible, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Mbwana.
From the very beginning, Mbwana was incredibly attentive, caring and protective, always making sure we were comfortable and safe, but never intrusive. He was flexible with everything, always on time, professional and genuinely went above and beyond to make our trip special.
We felt completely looked after throughout the entire journey, and his kindness, knowledge and positive energy made the experience even more unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would absolutely recommend Mbwana to anyone visiting Tanzania. 🐘❤️
A big thank you as well to Mountain Warriors for the excellent organisation and for taking such great care of us throughout the trip. Everything was handled with so much attention and professionalism.
Thank you, Mbwana and Mountain Warriors, for an unforgettable Tanzanian adventure! 🇹🇿✨

Magical Experience
I had already been to Kenya for a safari and I came back with my wife now expecting a similar experience in Tanzania. However, it has completely exceeded my expectations.
We have seen all big 5 many times and more. Lions eating and hunting, leopards resting, cheetahs… We have enjoyed every second of these 4 days around the serengeti, and it was also thanks to our amazing guide Mbwana. He has been always polite, resolutive, highly proactive, extremely friendly and we have learned a lot with him. Always with a smiley face even after long 7h drives around the dusty plains. 10/10 - we will recommend Mountain Warriors to all our friends

Helena arranged the tour to meet all our wishes for the trip, really helpful.

A Grand Dream Dashed
Exploring the Serengeti is a rare opportunity—a once-in-a-lifetime experience for anyone. I am writing this review in the hope that no one else falls victim to the same experience I did.
The consultation with the Mountain Warriors staff was prompt and courteous. However, the guide they assigned to us was the problem. Now that the trip is over, I am more convinced than ever that the quality of the guide is the single most important factor in a safari tour. Let me be clear: the guide provided by Mountain Warriors was the absolute worst.
He caused trouble right from day one. He disregarded our itinerary; despite the fact that we had already paid for specific accommodations, he tried to take us to a completely different, unsuitable place. Even though we were in the middle of the savanna with a poor signal, I managed to contact the Mountain Warriors staff to challenge this. Yet, he insisted on taking us to that strange location anyway. It was only after we lodged a strong protest that he finally drove us to our originally scheduled accommodation.
On the second day, during our game drive in Central Serengeti, we failed to see a *single* predator—this in an area known for having the highest concentration of predators. It was a disaster. The guide did not use any radio communication equipment provided in the vehicle. He seemed unable to communicate with the other guides at all. He only interacted with other guides when they stopped a passing vehicle to ask for directions; in other words, he was completely unfamiliar with the geography of the Serengeti.
The worst incident occurred during a game drive in Ngorongoro. Using binoculars, I spotted a spot in the distance where a multitude of vehicles had created a traffic jam. I used my camera’s 100x zoom to capture the scene and showed it to him, saying, "Something is happening over there; let's go." He dismissed it, claiming, "They’re just looking at flamingos." I was dumbfounded. Would so many cars really gather just to see flamingos, which are abundant everywhere? It didn't take long to confirm I was right. After constantly seeing common animals like zebras and wildebeests, we happened to pass by "that spot." And what was happening there? A pride of lions had hunted an antelope and was feeding on the carcass! We had missed not only the hunt itself but also the precious moment of the mother lion feeding her cubs.
What more is there to say? The fact that the guide wasn't fluent in English wasn't even the main issue. The real problem was encountering such an unprofessional and negligent guide on what was supposed to be a once-in-a-lifetime safari tour—one we had paid a hefty price for. This falls entirely on Mountain Warriors. Throughout the trip—which we had embarked on with such high expectations—we felt nothing but displeasure and disappointment; my wife even ended up crying in the vehicle.
I could never recommend this company. Even a refund wouldn't heal the hurt my family suffered.

A Perfect Trip
We went on a seven-day safari tour visiting Tarangire, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. Our guide, Innocent, was professional and friendly, while Helena from the sales team was quick to respond and effectively resolved any issues.
