Professional and trustworthy tour operator and guide
The experience with Loveness and John was fabulous - worth every penny. My friend and I did a 4 day private mid-range tour with 3 days in Serengeti and Ngorogoro on the last day.
Mountain Warriors is a company that ensures high standards for their services. We got quotations with the exact same itinerary and accommodation arrangements from other companies, and Mountain Warrior's price was higher. However, Loveness did not lower the price in order to get our business but rather insisted the service quality - which was worth it!
For instance, our flights were at 5 pm and we asked if it's possible to catch the flight on the last day. Loveness was very honest and said that it's impossible, as we would not have the full experience, while other companies just said yes. Loveness was so right. You do not want to leave early with Ngorogoro. I was sad to leave the extremely beautiful place even after the full tour.
Our guide John attended to our needs, very knowledgeable with animals and plants, patient with answering our questions, and the most important of all - we saw every animal we wanted to see including all the big 5! I liked that John listens to our desires and went for the animals that we liked. He made sure we were in good angles to take good photos and even reminded us to have our cameras ready early multiple times. I find him very considerate.
Other than John being extremely professional and experienced, you can tell the company really pay attention on ensuring quality. We had hot lunch almost day. The only day we had to eat a lunch box because we were in the middle of Serengeti - there's chicken, curry, and rice. John also had the car checked every night to make sure of the security.
All in all, I highly recommend Mountain Warriors. If their quotation is slightly higher than others - it's because of their insistence on quality. If you want the animal experience to be tailored to your needs and have many questions about the big nature, you request for John. You will not be disappointed .

Amazing Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater Safari Experience
My friend and I had an amazing safari with Mountain Warriors. We did a 4D3N safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and our guide was John.
On the booking experience:
Loveness was our first point of contact through the booking process and we cannot say better things about working with her. She is kind, professional and honest from the start and we appreciated her explanations and flexibility to make our itinerary what we wanted. Most safari itineraries start with a night near the Tarangire National Park, but we wanted to skip this and maximize our time in Serengeti. Loveness was very accommodating to this request and helped us plan out our perfect trip. I highly recommend her and thank her so much for making the planning process so easy!
On the actual safari experience:
John was such a great guide and highly recommend anyone looking to book with Mountain Warriors request him as your guide! He is an extremely very safe driver (we saw many other guides just recklessly drive through those rough roads!) and super knowledgeable. He made sure to give us the best experience possible and we were able to see the entire Big 5! In total, we saw 44 lions, 4 cheetah, 1 leopard, 1 rhino, countless elephants and other classic safari wildlife. He was a great companion over our 4 days and made sure we were safe, happy and comfortable. He cleaned the car every night and made sure we had water and drinks throughout the game drives.
On the Mountain Warriors experience:
When you're booking a safari, it can be overwhelming to know which company to go with so let me tell you why Mountain Warriors should be your top choice:
1. They value quality and standards: While other safari companies may want to cut corners to gain as much profit as possible, Mountain Warriors ensures a quality experience and high standards. When we asked Loveness for discount, she kindly explained to us that she cannot lower the price to ensure quality and high standards which we really appreciated the honesty and her explanation.
2. Their guides are safe and well trained: John was highly knowledgable and extremely professional throughout the whole trip. He was so prepared and we really enjoyed spending time with him!
3. Meals and Accommodations exceeded our expectations: The accommodations were comfortable, clean and very good quality and service. For meals, we had hot lunches almost every day, where other companies had only box lunches on the road. This made a huge difference for us and we really appreciated the extra mile Mountain Warriors went for the meals.
Overall professional and exceeded our expectations! Going on a safari is a serious investment, but rest assured that going with Mountain Warriors will ensure a comfortable, fulfilling and fun safari. I cannot recommend them enough and I will never forget my time with them! If I have the opportunity to come back to Tanzania again I will not hesitate to book with Mountain Warriors again.

Amazing company!
We had a wonderful time with Mountain warriors. The communication was excellent, as was our tour guide. Everything on the day itself went smoothly and everyone at the company did their best to ensure we had an amazing and relaxing experience. Also, the lunch included was very good. Would certainly recommend!

An amazing experience
We spent 3 incredible days with our guide John, who made sure to make our safari exceptional. He was at our service throughout the stay and allowed us to see many animals including more than 40 lions!! Thank you to Mountains Warriors for organizing this tour! Everything was perfect from the planning of our trip with Rehema, to the accommodations on site! Shuhudi Serengeti Camp and Marera Valley Lodge were up to our expectations! We recommend this agency 1000% !!

Amazing 3-day safari - Food - Cleanliness - Big 5
I did a 3-day safari (Serengeti and Ngorongoro) with Mountain Warriors.
At first, I was a bit worried because it was just the end of the rainy season, and I thought we might not see the Big 5. But our guide, John, was amazing! He did everything he could to help us find all of the Big 5, and even more.
We saw over 40 lions, a rhinoceros, some cheetahs, buffalos, a leopard, giraffes, elephants, and many other animals!
John was very kind and informative. We learned a lot from him, and we also shared some good laughs together!
I was also worried about the food because I have serious digestive issues (IBS and chronic gastritis). But Mountain Warriors made sure all the restaurants knew about my dietary restrictions, and they always prepared meals just the way I needed. I had zero digestive problems during the trip, which felt like a miracle! I'm usually very sensitive to food, and I had a crisis right before traveling.
I was also quite anxious about cleanliness and insects, since I have a low immune system and worry more than most about these things. But honestly, everything was great. The hotels Mountain Warriors chose were clean and very comfortable.
It was a wonderful experience! ✨

Sociable, Accommodating, and Knowledgeable Guide
A work associate and I are in Tanzania for a month and we wanted to do a two-day safari over the weekend. Our guide was Victor, who was absolutely amazing. He was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, going above and beyond to give us a comfortable and exciting experience. He found out we were political science students doing research in Dar es Salaam and was willing to talk about our research interests and give us some insights on local political and cultural perspectives. I believe they told us he had been working as a guide with Mountain Warriors for 6 years, and that experience really pulled through during our trip. Even If we encountered any hiccups along the way, Victor was prepared and handled everything like a pro. The whole team is exceptionally friendly, and the main office served as a great break point after our safari while we waited for our bus. Overall I have major respect for the whole crew, not to mention the safari itself. We went to Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire park, both of which had exceptional biodiversity and beautiful sights. Victor let us indulge in the sights and we didn’t feel rushed at all, he checked in very frequently with us to make sure we were comfortable and felt well informed about all of the areas and animals we encountered. And, when we fell asleep on the ride back, he very gently gave us updates when needed. I would stroooongly recommend to anyone looking for a great safari experience.

Well organized and always reachable for questions
We had the most incredible two-day safari experience, and it was made absolutely perfect by our amazing guide, Victor. From the moment we were picked up at the hotel, everything was seamless and well-organized. Victor welcomed us with a warm smile and immediately made us feel comfortable and excited for the adventure ahead.
Our first stop was Tarangire National Park, where Victor gave us a special welcome and introduced us to the landscape and its unique wildlife. His knowledge is simply extraordinary—he knew everything about every animal we encountered, from elephants and lions to even small birds. He didn’t just list facts; he told fascinating stories, explained behaviors, and made every sighting feel meaningful.
After an exciting day, we stayed overnight at Eileen’s Trees Inn, a charming lodge surrounded by nature. It was quite cold at night, but the atmosphere and setting were beautiful, and the staff made sure we were comfortable.
On the second day, we explored the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. Again, Victor welcomed us with insights about the crater’s formation and the unique ecosystem inside. Every moment with him felt like a lesson from a true expert who genuinely loves what he does.
At the end of our journey, we were brought back to the hotel, feeling enriched, inspired, and deeply grateful. Victor’s professionalism, passion, and kindness turned a great safari into an unforgettable one. If you’re planning a safari, we couldn’t recommend this tour—and especially Victor—highly enough!
