Great experience
4/5

Overall, I really enjoyed the safari. It was a whole new experience. We got close to the animals, which was amazing. The nature in both Serengeti and Ngorongoro is crazy beautiful. It is absolutely worth the trip. Our driver, Victor, was a great driver. I felt safe in the car at all times. He also had a lot of knowledge about the animals and the surroundings. He could answer any question, and learned us a lot of facts which I loved!
The first day was however a bit messy. The transfertime to Serengeti took way longer than it was supposed to, according to misunderstandings or poor planning. But apart from that, I am really happy with this experience. I would 100% recommend.

Amazing Safari Experience with Outstanding Guide John, Despite Minor Issues
4/5

We had a fantastic safari experience overall and would happily recommend this tour operator.

From the very beginning, communication during the planning process was easy, efficient, and professional. All our questions were answered promptly, making the booking process smooth and stress-free. Throughout our journey, we encountered friendly and helpful staff who genuinely cared about making our trip enjoyable.

The safari itself was an unforgettable experience. A special thank you goes to our guide, John, who was truly exceptional. His knowledge of wildlife, nature, and the local environment was outstanding. He always went above and beyond to maximize our wildlife sightings and put tremendous effort into helping us spot as many animals as possible. Thanks to him, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, but he also made sure to introduce us to the “Ugly Five” and the “Small Five,” which added a lot of depth and fun to the experience. His passion and dedication were evident every day.

We would also like to highlight the staff at the lodges, who were extremely friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout our stay. Their hospitality made us feel very comfortable and well cared for.

There were, however, a couple of issues that prevented this from being a perfect experience. One of the reasons we chose this operator was that the quotation clearly stated that the safari was all-inclusive, including food and drinks such as water, non-alcoholic beverages, beer, and wine. During the trip, we learned that this mainly referred to water and some Coca-Cola available in the vehicle. While beer and wine were technically available, the cooling box was not functioning, so the drinks were warm and therefore not particularly appealing during lunch breaks. In the lodges for breakfast and dinner only drinking water is included. We believe the inclusions should be communicated more clearly to avoid misunderstandings.

We also booked airport transfers. The arrival transfer worked perfectly, but on our return journey the driver was more than 15 minutes late. The receptionist proactively helped by making several phone calls, and shortly afterwards another driver arrived to take us to Kilimanjaro Airport. During the ride, we learned that this replacement transfer was arranged through a different company. After a brief discussion on the phone, Mountain Warriors handled the situation and covered the additional costs once they realized their driver was significantly delayed and that waiting any longer could have made boarding our flight very stressful.

Despite these minor issues, the overall experience was excellent. The quality of the safari, the friendliness of the staff, and especially John’s outstanding guiding made this a memorable and rewarding adventure.

An amazing experience !
4/5

We went on a 3 days joining safari with Mountain Warriors. First we met Rehema who was really kind and available for our demand at a late time. Rehema wanted to put us with an other group with an other company but we didn’t wanted so she arranged all the stuff for us to go with Mountain Warriors. The morning, we met Kefas, our guide, and Ali, our chef. They were really kind! Kefas is an incredible guide who bring us as close as possible from the animals. It was amazing. The Ali’s food was also really good. The camps where we slept were great.
We had a little issue with the car at the beginning but Kefas solved really fast in vue of the situation on the road.
Anyway, the experience was unbelievable thanks to Kefas, Ali and Rehema!

We were happy with the operator, Rehema was very helpful and always accessible over the phone/what's app, when we needed her.
One of the drivers was not too engaged, Jessie. The other one, Kissamo, was perfect, he told us a lot and was spotting animals before we see them. We had an amazing 2 days safari trip to the crater and one of the parks. The crator is must go, we highly recommend.

4/5

We went on a two day safari in March to Tarangire and Ngorongoro and had the best time almost seeing all of the big five! Our guide was sharing interesting facts about every animal we have seen and we also managed to see at least all of the ugly five. Funny guide, would recommend. All in all, great experience and fair price in comparison to others!

Great safari experience
4/5

The pros: Overall safari was a great experience. We were able to see many animals throughout the serengeti, ngorogoro crater, and tarangire national park. The accommodation booked was also fantastic and of high quality. Rehema was always quick to respond to any questions we had on whatsapp and was very responsive.

Improvements: Some of the planning leading up to the safari could have been better. We had a hiccup with our accommodation bookings (which the company ultimately helped us resolve). We ended up staying at different places than originally planned but they were just as nice, if not better. Briefing and timing of briefing meeting was also a bit confusing leading up to our departure. Nothing major but a few small things to improve.

Thanks for a great time!

The communication with the two drivers was very good. The tour itself was not cheap but the price was lower than the competitors. Plus they made a very good choice of Hotels and Camps.

Unforgettable 3-Day Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Mecky
4/5

Our 3-day safari experience in Serengeti and Ngorongoro was nothing short of magical. The landscapes were breathtaking, the wildlife encounters surreal, and our accommodations exceeded expectations with their comfort, stunning views, and warm hospitality.

While we did face some initial misunderstandings with the safari company regarding logistics, our guide, Mecky, truly turned things around. From the moment we met him, his humor, kindness, and deep knowledge about the animals and the ecosystem put us at ease. Mecky not only ensured we had an incredible wildlife experience but also made every moment enjoyable with his stories and positive energy.

The Serengeti delivered iconic scenes of lions lounging in the sun, elephants strolling majestically, and endless herds of wildebeest crossing the plains. Ngorongoro Crater, on the other hand, felt like stepping into a lost world – an awe-inspiring concentration of animals surrounded by dramatic crater walls.

Despite the initial hiccup, this safari became an unforgettable adventure, largely thanks to Mecky’s dedication and charisma. We wholeheartedly recommend this experience – just make sure you have someone like Mecky by your side!

The safari was very beautiful and intense, the guide was kind and the landscapes and animals seen were unforgettable. The only flaw of the Tour Operator was that they changed the accommodations after booking the tour
