An Amazing Safari
In July 2026, we booked a 7-day private safari through Reinie at Travel with Deo Safaris. It turned out to be an unforgettable experience.
A detailed itinerary had been prepared for the seven days, but Reinie had already explained to us beforehand that the itinerary could still changle depending on the movements of the animals. In fact, just two days before our departure, some accommodations were changed and the itinerary was adjusted to give us the best and most unforgettable experience possible.
Our itinerary included visits to Tarangire, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, with a hot-air balloon ride in between.
After our flight to Tanzania, our driver picked us up at the airport and took us to our hotel. It was a lovely hotel, although it was a shame we only stayed there for one night.
The following morning, we were picked up by Steven, our dedicated driver and guide for the next seven days. And I can honestly say: he was an absolutely fantastic driver and guide.
While driving, Steven took plenty of time to tell us all about the animals we saw and the incredible landscapes around us. There was also plenty of time for laughter and jokes. Steven truly made sure that we created some of the most special memories of our safari.
Our overnight stays at the migration camps were unforgettable. We were welcomed with so much warmth and kindness and were incredibly well looked after. It was a truly special experience. Sleeping out on the savannah was definitely something we would not have wanted to miss.
After seven days of safari, we ended our holiday with a few days in Zanzibar. It gave us the perfect opportunity to relax and look back on our amazing safari while staying at a wonderful resort.
This holiday was made even more special thanks to Deo Travel, who arranged and planned everything for us. We were completely taken care of and all we had to do was relax and enjoy every moment.
Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience!

Great safari
A 2-Day Magical Escape from Zanzibar – Absolutely Unforgettable! We booked a quick 2 days, 1 night fly-in safari to Nyerere National Park from Zanzibar, and it exceeded every single expectation. If you think two days aren’t enough to experience the true African wild, this trip will prove you wrong! From the moment our bush plane landed at the Mtemere Airstrip, we were immersed in another world. After landing we met our guide and started the game drive, our guide tracked down a pride of lions resting under an acacia tree, followed by huge herds of giraffes, zebras, and elephants. Because Nyerere is so vast and beautifully uncrowded, we were the only jeep there—a beautifully private, authentic experience.The absolute highlight of the trip, however, was the boat safari on the spectacular Rufiji River, drifting quietly alongside hundreds of pods of grunting hippos and massive crocodiles sunning on the sandbanks and the Maasai village. We stayed at Selous River Lodge, the view was stunning and got our meals from the restaurant lodge which we loved.

Great Safari Experience
I had an amazing 2-day safari in Nyerere National Park, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. I was the only guest in the safari vehicle, which made the trip feel very personal. My driver and guide took such great care of me the entire time—they were friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure I was having the best experience.
I was also incredibly lucky to see so many amazing animals, and every game drive was exciting. A huge thank you for making this trip so special. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Tanzania!
Best Thanks to Jihan and Mpogo ! :)

He was friendly and informative!
This was amazing! Travel with Deo Safaris communicated well leading up to the safari making sure everything ran smoothly. The flight to the mainland was quick. We were able to see a lot of animals including lions up close! Monkeys climbed onto our truck which was a great photo opp. Lunch was provided and it was delicious. The only thing I would suggest is updating the trucks because the bolts came off our tire, but our tour guide quickly problem solved and ensured that we finished the safari safely. 10/10 recommend overall.
Fantastic organization, excellent guides, and an unforgettable safari experience.
We had an amazing one-day safari in Mikumi with four friends and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. The communication before the trip was clear and professional, and everything was organized perfectly from start to finish. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife, making the day both exciting and informative. We were lucky to see a wide variety of animals, which made the safari truly memorable. The service exceeded our expectations, the team was always punctual and reliable, and we felt that the experience offered excellent value for money. We highly recommend this tour operator to anyone looking for a fantastic safari experience in Tanzania.

Fantastic experience
We have just had an amazing 2 days with these guys as part of a 2 week zanzibar holiday.
Flew to Tanzania and met at the airport.
Straight out on a 7 hour safari in open land rover through some tough terrain which the vehicle and driver managed without issue.
We were fortunate with the weather and with the guides extensive knowledge, we manage to see virtually everything we had hoped to. Lions, elephants including baby's, zebras, Impala, hippos, crocodiles, buffalo, wild dogs, various monkeys, baboons and lots of birds. All in their natural habitat and free but we managed to get up close
We stayed in a chalet safari Lodge and today had a 2 hour river cruise / safari followed by a 2 hour visit to a traditional massi village.
Great staff, wel organised great knowledge and a fantastic experience all round.
Highly recommended

Excellent 3 Day Safari
A really great Safari in Nyerere National park. Deo was able to customise this trip for us to add an extra game drive and an extra night and I texted him each evening about the plans for the next day and he was always very responsive. The accommodation and food was great and the guides were all really friendly and informative. I visited 6 other national parks on my trip and this one was the best experience because of the the service provided by the guides. In particular Joseph was amazing. Very knowledgeable and relaxed and a very good jeep driver which was very useful for the rainy season. We saw loads of amazing wildlife on the trip and I would definitely recommend to anyone considering.

My safari tour was amazing and i made memories that last for a lifetime!
I went on a 3 Day trip on the 9th, 10th and 11th of March. The flight from Zanzibar to Tanzania was smooth. From the airstrip i went to the Slow Leopard Lodge. The arrival there was super friendly and the service was amazing. All the food en drinks where super fresh. You could ask for everything! The first day was a game drive and i was in great hands of the driver Goodluck. He was amazing behind the wheel, what a driver! And my guide Shukran has an answer on all your questions about wildlife! The second day was a trip on the river that also was an amazing experience with all the animals you see there and the beautiful nature that surrounds you. The third was also a game drive and again with Shukran and Goodluck. Those 2 are amazing! Also special thanks to Deo and Reinie for arranging a mindblowing 3 day trip! Everything was taken care of really good and everything you want to do, even if it is extra, is open to discussion. Thank you all so much for the memory of a lifetime.
