Excellent value and super attentive and friendly service!
The best part about using Ozon Light tours is you will be getting a local Tanzanian tour operator. Not a huge conglomerate. More of the money you pay will stay with the locals and support them and their economy. Deus was our our coordinator and he was available almost 24/7 to answer our questions. This was from the time of booking, and throughout our stay. We booked a 7 day hike to Kilimanjaro as well as a 4 day safari and a day trip visiting local indigenous tribes. The cost of two weeks with Ozon was less than the cost of a 7 day Kili hike we were quoted from a third party American contractor.
And with Ozon, we were not a number! My friend and I had a dedicated team of ten men, led by Joseph Minja, to escort us to the top of Kilimanjaro. They were professional, super friendly, and made my friend and I feel safe and cared for throughout our trek. They more than anticipated our needs and did it all with a smile and a lot of love. The team of ten became friends and family during our time together. Our chef Zuberi cooked us three delicious meals a day, and our server Adam tended to us from wake-up to bedtime in the evening. Joseph and Joshua were our guides and they made sure we safe every day on the mountain. We had so many laughs and truly became friends. On summit night my travel companion came down with altitude sickness and was not able to continue. Joseph escorted my friend back down to safety and I continued on with Joshua and our summit porter Samuel. It was a night I will never forget.
After the culmination of our Kili trek, we said goodbye to our climbing team and were greeted by our safari guide Dicklack. This guy knows safari! He promised us the Big 5 and he delivered! He made the most of every day we had visiting the Tangarire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti National Parks. I also had a day in the Lake Eyasi area where we picked up another guide and translator Tom, who brought me into the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes. Do this experience if you can, you will not forget it! It was onne of the most amazing experiences of my life being able to see and interact with these wonderful people and learn about their way of life.
Go with Ozon! Support a local company and be able to FULLY experience Tanzania and it's wonderful people.
Attentive
Our trip was organized by Deus and he was very attentive to our needs, questions, and changes. He arranged the Kilimanjaro trek and the safaris thereafter. All the details were arranged with experienced guides. Our trekking team made us feel welcomed and part of the team. Our safari guide was also knowledgeable and fiercely located our favorite animals, as well as every animal, possible. The trip was amazing! The cost of the trip was reasonable considering what needs to be done for each trek and safari. It was an amazing trip!!
Experienced and diligent
We did the 4-5 day safari tour starting in Arusha, to Tarangire the first day, Serengeti the second / third day, and Ngorongoro crater the last day.
Silver was our guide and did a wonderful job handling all logistics as well as being an experienced and informed guide on all the animals. He was extremely punctual and spent a lot of time figuring out where some of the harder to find animals were.
Thanks to his efforts, we were able to spot some cheetahs (mother and cubs) which were really hard to find. We also saw some rhinos in the distance. We saw all the other main animals too - lots of elephants, lions, zebras, antelopes, giraffes, hyenas, hippos, interesting birds, etc. We spent quite a while trying to find a leopard in the trees but that eluded us. But there were plenty of other animals that we were very satisfied with all that we saw. We were close enough to many animals that it was easy to capture them on a phone camera. I did have an entry level telephoto lens camera with me (55-210mm) and that served this type of safari perfectly. We also took a more scenic / back route through the Maasai villages and Silver explained a lot of their customs.
All the accommodations and food was fantastic, the staff all very helpful. Even the camp accommodations in the park were very comfortable with running water and electricity.
Overall, it was an amazing experience. Would highly recommend this tour and our guide.

An Unforgettable Safari!
the entire experience of our safari with Ozon Light Tours was flawless from start to finish. I booked our tour six months in advance, and right from the beginning, the agency was incredibly transparent and trustworthy. Planning a trip so far ahead can be stressful, but their excellent communication put us completely at ease.
The logistics were perfect, and they selected excellent hotels for us. Having a comfortable, high-quality place to get a great night's sleep between the days on the Serengeti or Ngorongoro or Tarangire made a massive difference in our trip.
Our guide, Elijah, truly made the safari an absolute dream. He proved to be an exceptional driver—incredibly safe, careful, and responsible on every terrain. His tracking skills are unmatched; it felt like he always knew exactly where the wildlife would be, always positioning us perfectly for the best possible views of leopards, rhinos, lions, and more. Beyond that, Elijah is a wealth of knowledge. He was incredibly proactive, constantly sharing fascinating insights about the animals and local culture.
From the office staff to the field, Ozon Light Tours operates at the highest level. Do yourself a favor and ask for Elijah. They truly earned this 5-star review!

It was absolutely amazing!
Our 5-day safari was absolutely amazing! Everything was perfect from beginning to end.
A special thank you to our guide, Elijah, who made this experience even more memorable. He was always kind, attentive, helpful, and fun to be around. He shared so much knowledge about the animals, the local culture, and many interesting facts along the way, which made every game drive even more enjoyable.
Everything went exactly as planned, and we didn’t have any problems during the trip. The hotels were very good, the food was great, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations.
I highly recommend this safari to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure. Thank you for such an incredible experience!

Amazing experience
We booked with this local agency because we support local companies and thought we would have a really pure adventure. It was just like that, and even better than we expected.
We went through all four safari areas, and we saw a lot of wild animals, big 5 and many more. It was such a great experience to roam all over the place seeing animals and wildlife. The acommodation places given to us were all very good, confortable, authentic and food was great too!
Our guide Dennis was very kind and knew all about the wildlife, people's ways of life in Tanzania and their tribes.
Also transfers and transport were on point all the time. Confortable and very punctual.
We cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you so much for making our honeymoon an unforgettable memory.

Our tour operator was kind, responsive, helpful, and willing to do anything for us.
I cannot recommend Ozon Light Tours enough. From the very beginning, they were very responsive and willing to do anything to make our trip perfect. My husband and I went for our honeymoon, and we are so happy we did. They made the trip completely stress free. We chose the bush to beach package. We wanted to make a few changes to the package to make the trip perfect, and they were so willing and eager to help with this. Anytime I had a question or needed to talk to someone before and during the trip, they responded immediately. Every place we stayed at was clean, safe, and luxurious.
Denis was our safari tour guide, and he was the best! We are so lucky to have spent our trip with him. He was extremely knowledgeable about everything from the animals to the plants to the parks. He also was very funny and made us feel comfortable the entire trip. We will miss him dearly.
Our time in Zanzibar at the Z Hotel was amazing! Everything about that place was perfect. The service was great, the staff were wonderful, and the food was amazing. There were security guards at all entry points at all times to help make us feel extra safe.
If you are considering Ozon Light Tours to help plan your trip, do it! We could not have had a better honeymoon all thanks to them. We would 100% book this trip again!

Excellent
Honestly one of the best decisions we made for our honeymoon! From the very first contact, Deus made planning our trip effortless. He answered all our questions and arranged everything perfectly, so we arrived with zero stress.
The safari itself was 7 incredible days across four parks: Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Each one was different and breathtaking in its own way, and the wildlife we encountered was beyond anything we’d imagined.
So much of that magic came down to our guide, Augustino. He’s knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely kind. He knew we were celebrating our honeymoon and went above and beyond to make it special: he decorated the car with a photo of us, even had our picture on our drinks, and treated us to a sunset I still can’t stop thinking about.
We were also really impressed with where we stayed. Every lodge was comfortable and welcoming, and the food was really good.
If you want a safari that feels personal and unforgettable, Ozon Light Tours is the one to book. Thank you to Augustino, Deus, and the whole team for giving us memories we’ll cherish for a lifetime!
Elijah = Great Guide!
Elijah was a great guide for our 7 day safari. He was incredible at spotting faraway animals that we couldn't see, giving detailed expalanations and facts for all the animals, and making sure we ticked off everything that we wanted. We managed to see all of the Big 5 which we were so happy about, and didn't have anything on our list that we didn't see by the end of it! He even went above and beyond when we forgot some of our items in another car one day, and managed to get them back to us which we were so appreciative of. We would 100% recommend Elijah at Ozon Light to anyone looking to do a safari.
Perfect Safari Trip with Thoughtful Service & Professional Team
I highly recommend Ozon Light Tours for your Tanzania safari trip.
The communication before departure was smooth, the team confirmed our pickup time clearly and responded to my messages promptly. Our driver Dickluck is very experienced, familiar with all national parks, humorous and skilled at finding wild animals for us.
All arrangements were reliable and on schedule, the vehicle was clean and comfortable. The overall service is thoughtful and professional, with good value for money. We had an amazing wildlife experience and will choose this operator again for future trips.
