Exceeded all expectations in every way!
We have only rave reviews for Passionate Guides! Othuman was our incredible guide through 4 parks in 6 days. He was knowledgeable, experienced, chock full of information, and fun. The accommodations were clean, large, beautiful, and in perfect locations. Beatues communicated well with us and planning the trip was simple on our end. Passionately Guides is definitely the best company to use for this trip of a lifetime!

Thrilled I chose Passionate Guides
From the moment I started communicating with Beatus I knew he was the right guide for us! He was incredibly responsive, helpful with my never ending questions and determined to personalize our itinerary down to the smallest detail. He suggested tented lodges that were in our price range and customized the most efficient itinerary.
He took care of every single detail so it was effortless on our part.
It was obvious how well respected Beatus is in the circle of safari companies, other guides, and with the lodges.
His knowledge was off the charts, he was fun, kind, and so dedicated to personalize the trip for us. We started as clients and ended as friends.
I will be highly recommending
Passionate Guides to all my friends and family

Tanzania safari made memorable by passionate guides. Michael and mpole.❤️
Our 10-day trip through Tanzania and Zanzibar with Passionate Guides Tanzania was absolutely phenomenal. Traveling as two couples, every detail was flawlessly organized, making the journey smooth, enjoyable, and completely stress-free.
Our tour manager, Michael, ensured everything ran seamlessly, from transfers to accommodations, taking care of all logistics so we could fully enjoy the experience. Our guide and driver, Benny Mpole, was outstanding — knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about wildlife. Exploring Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater with Benny was unforgettable. The safari vehicle was top-notch, spacious, and perfect for long game drives, providing excellent comfort and unobstructed views for photography and wildlife spotting.
The lodges and camps were exceptional — comfortable, beautifully located, and offering wonderful hospitality. Our stay in Zanzibar was equally amazing, with pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and well-curated cultural experiences providing the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.
What made the trip truly memorable was the personal touch and dedication of the entire team. We always felt safe, cared for, and genuinely welcomed throughout.
We wholeheartedly recommend Passionate Guides Tanzania, Benny, and Michael to anyone planning a safari or holiday in Tanzania. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we cannot thank them enough for creating such lasting memories.

Beyond the excellent safari was the experience of being catered so attentively
We just spent nine days having our minds blown every day. After the first day at Tarangire our camera already had 600 animal photos. The trip would have been great and we could have just called it a success.
But then….. after the first night in our tented camp we woke up to rustling and opened our tent flap to see a family of twelve elephants had come to see us, literally waving their trunks in greeting.
That type of experience happened EVERY SINGLE day. I cannot say enough praise about Passionate Guides and how Beatus was able to plan this whole experience for our family. In addition to an incredible set of safari days we also took time in Arusha to experience a bit of local culture including getting the best fade haircut a white man might ever experience by going to Beatus's own barber). We also did a 10 mile hike at Kilimanjaro.
Passionate Guides, under his leadership, goes to sleep after you have crashed, wakes up before you to prep supplies for the day, and then spends all day listening to your desires and making sure they get realized. We kept giving new challenges, "that was great but now we would like to see...." and then somehow within 24 hours Beatus kept working it in. We saw more than 120 different species of animals during our trip -and- a wildebeest river crossing to cap it all off.
We simply have never been treated more kindly and attentively than our time with Passionate Guides. Thank you Beatus.

Out Of Hundreds To Pick From, We Got The Best!
From our first contact with Catherine Edwards to our final farewell from Beatus the owner, it was a perfect experience! My wife and I booked simultaneous adventures with Passionate Guides. A seven day climb of Kilimanjaro for Me and a seven day Serengeti safari for Lynn. Never have I received so much attention on a successful mountain climb! And the safari far surpassed my wifes expectations! Can you say cats, cats and more cats?
And when it comes to the climb be sure to ask for Keddy Nathanael! He, the five porters and cook make you want to come back and do it again! And indeed, we are already considering coming back in 2026 for another safari. BUT, only with PASSIONATE GUIDES!
They specialize in private safaris and mountain climbs for your own personal group. So even if you are only a "group" of one, as me on the climb and my wife on the safari, don't cheat yourself trying to save money by going with an international group of 10 or more. Treat yourself to the special attention you will receive for your own personal group! Their passion creates an unforgettable experience for you and yours!
Thanks again Passionate Guides! We are already passing the word to all our friends. Consider no other!

They are an enthusiastic, patient and energetic team
It’s our best decision to choose Passionate Guides to be tour operator. They suggested that we spend more time in Tanzania instead of Kenya.So we spent five days in Kenya and seven days in Tanzania.
Everything is perfect, foods, accommodation, tour guide. Ndutu is the best place for elderly people since you can have dinner in lodge and take a nap ,then continue your safari.
I don’t have a word to describe Serengeti, that’s a place you have to go.
We enjoy every moment of the trip.Africa,we will come back to see you.

Determined to please
Communication was prompt, clear and helpful with Passionate Guides. Helen bent over backwards to provide an itinerary that worked for us. We loved having our own guide and Athuman did a great job for us. Beatus, the company‘s owner inspired confidence and also was a joy to talk with during our transfer to the Kenyan border.
