Thank you Issa &Team for an unforgettable holiday with wonderful people and many special highlights!
5/5

The 3 of us had planned a 4-day trekking up Mt. Meru plus a 5-day Safari in Northern Tanzania. We inquired to several tour operators including Destiny Explorers. Issa´s feedback was very fast, and the suggested route / accomodations / destinations exactly matched what we had imagined. The price quote & itinerary were detailed, easy to understand and transparent. Overall, Destiny Explorer´s offer was the most attractive. From the beginning of our contact, communication was excellent. Every e-mail was answered very quickly, every question and concern attended to. Payment transactions all went smoothly. And Issa also gave us advice when we seemed to have delays with our visas.
At Arusha, we were warmly welcomed by our mountain team of 8 (including guides, cook, porters...) & Nico, to start our Mt. Meru challenge. Our guides Elly & Livin are just unique - we had so much fun with them, they were always good for a joke, they motivated and supported us at every step of the hike. Mt. Meru is more challenging than we had expected, but thanks to them we made it ! Our chef Ramadhan provided us with excellent dining (a LOT of food!). The whole team is just great : Elia the "waiter", and our porters who have such a hard job, yet are always cheerful and smiling (Emanuel, John, Wilhard & Jonas). Cheers to all of you and a big THANK YOU for making this possible and such a memorable experience for us! From the next day onward, we were in good hands with our cheerful and caring Safari Guide Nico, who took us to Tarangire NP, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Transition was very smoth, transport all taken care of.
Thanks to Nico´s expertise, we got to see everything that Tanzania´s wildlife has to offer. Nico really went out of his way to make our trip comfortable, enjoyable and smooth and always had advice on any question. We had such a great time with him and will miss him dearly - cheers & big THANK YOU, Nico, for making this such an eventful and unforgettable safari! Saying good bye to ALL of you was sad ! All we can add as a conclusion is, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND DESTINY EXPLORERS ! Thank you, Issa for the good organization, Thank you, Nico, Elly, Livin, Ramadhan, Eliah, Emanuel, John, Wilhard & Jonas ! I am sure we will be back some time soon & if any of our friends plan a trip to Tanzania, we will send them to your care :-)
With warm greetings from Austria to Tanzania - Michaela, Susanne & Timo. HAKUNA MATATA always !

Perfect, big 5 check!
5/5

Together with my boyfriend, we did the 6-day safari. We had David as our driver, a kind and friendly man. He made sure we spotted both the rhino (from a distance) and the leopard, which are both hard to find in the wild. The accommodations were good, especially the tented camp in the Serengeti — it was beautiful. Lovely surroundings. Definitely recommended if you want to book an unforgettable safari.

Tom was knowledgeable and very accommodating in every way.
5/5

We utilized safari bookings to choose Destiny Explorers. My wife and I were very happy with the whole process from start to finish. Everything was laid out perfectly to compare apples to apples from various companies. Issa- the owner was very knowledgeable and kind to answer all of our questions. We chose a 9 day safari which included 3 days of cultural tours with the local people. I found Destiny Explorers to be the best value with quick answers, most five star reviews and a legitimate quality website. I can't say enough good things about this company and our guide. It truly was a trip of a lifetime we will be forever grateful.

Outstanding
5/5

From the moment we stepped of the plane to beginning our adventure in Tanzania, every moment was incredible. Our guide Sabas went above and beyond all expectations. He was friendly, professional and had incredible knowledge about all the animals we encountered. We saw all of the big 5, the highlight being a cheetah mother and 4 cubs with a fresh kill. I could not recommend Issa and destiny explorers enough.

Absolutely amazing
5/5

Destiny Explorer was a real discovery: despite having a small misunderstanding when it came to managing the Spanish guide, the problem was quickly resolved and we were able to count on a fabulous and experienced driver and a young and enthusiastic translator who knew the terrain. With these premises, each day of the Safari was a true adventure, especially in the Serengeti, where we were from sunrise to sunset discovering every corner of this natural wonder. Wonderful and incredible experience, unforgettable for all those who love animals in their natural habitat.

Our experience with Destiny Explores has been just perfect. We visited most of the northern parks and we could see lots of animals and have been hosted in amazing accommodations! Our guide Pascal was very friendly, available and an incredible driver!

Unforgettable 4-Day Safari Adventure in Tanzania
5/5

We recently returned from an unforgettable 4-day safari through Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, and I can confidently say it was the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and much of that credit goes to our incredible guide, Baraka.

From the moment we met him, Baraka’s warmth, professionalism, and passion for wildlife made us feel instantly at ease. He has an extraordinary depth of knowledge about the animals, landscapes, and culture of Tanzania. Every sighting came alive thanks to his storytelling and insights—from the smallest bird to the great herds of wildebeest.

Serengeti National Park: The vast plains were everything I dreamed of and more. We witnessed lions lounging under acacia trees, a cheetah sprinting across the savannah, and elephants gracefully moving in family herds. Baraka always seemed to know exactly where to go for the best sightings, while still respecting the animals and the environment.

Ngorongoro Crater: A breathtaking natural wonder. Descending into the crater felt like entering another world, where wildlife roams in abundance. We saw rhinos, zebras, flamingos, and countless other animals, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the crater walls.

Lake Manyara: Though smaller than the other parks, it was full of surprises. The lush greenery and birdlife were incredible, and we were lucky enough to see a female elephant and her baby.

What made this safari so special was not only the beauty of the parks but the way Baraka guided us through them. He was patient, attentive, and always eager to answer questions. His driving skills were excellent, and he made sure we were comfortable, safe, and well taken care of throughout the journey.

Every day was filled with excitement, yet also with a sense of peace and connection to nature. The accommodations, meals, and logistics were seamless, but it was Baraka’s dedication and enthusiasm that turned a great safari into an extraordinary one.

If you are planning a safari in Tanzania, I cannot recommend both the itinerary and Baraka enough. This was an adventure I will cherish forever, and I left with not only amazing photos and memories but also a deep appreciation for the wildlife and people of Tanzania.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) – Absolutely unforgettable!
