Attentive, Professional and Adaptable organization that puts your safety first above all.
5/5

What an experience to remember. Our driver (Nova) had numerous years of experience and you can definitely tell with the knowledge he had about the wildlife in Tanzania. We had loads of questions and he was able to answer all of them. Even when he didn't know the information or ander off the top of his head, he had loads of books ready to refresh his memory and teach us as well. Our experience was a collaborative approach, we asked our driver what he needs from us to ensure the best time possible, he mentioned that all we need is patience and flexibility. With these two principles in mind, we got the most out of our experience. Seeing beautiful animals, both flaura and fauna and even some predator action. All in all, it was one for the books and would highly recommend Serengeti Wildlife for your safari trip!

Extremely professional and went the extra mile at all times.
5/5

Definitely one of the best safaris I’ve ever done, I have done multiple in Tanzania and this was truly so special and well organised. The organisers went the extra mile to care for us and answered questions 24/7 before and during the trip and made us feel very special. I went with an 18 years old girl on her first trip outside of Europe and even she felt safe and well looked after during the whole trip. Specially our driver Nova did an amazing job. Thanks so much for this unforgettable experience. Definitely recommend.

wonderful experience
5/5

An unforgettable family experience!
We had an absolutely amazing family safari experience in the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. Everything was perfectly organized, and we were lucky enough to see the Big Five, which was a truly magical moment for both adults and children. A huge thank you to John, whose communication was always clear, reassuring, and professional. He was always available and very attentive to our needs, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We leave with incredible memories and highly recommend this adventure!

Excellent, personalized safari trip for our family of 4, highlight includes viewing ALL big 5
5/5

While finalizing the tour operator we had several options and quotes. Our criteria was to go with a local operator (to support them) at the same time who can provide us personalized and more immersive tour ensuring we learn and experience local culture, flora and fauna. Now that the safari is complete, highly recommend John and his Sercar Serengeti Wildlife Safaris, we couldn't have asked for more.

John and his team were extremely accessible right from the time we sent the inquiry to welcoming us in Tanzania to following up during each day of the safari till the send off from Tanzania. Our safari included Serengeti, Ndutu (calving), Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Manyara.

All the accommodations were booked as expected tailoring it for our family of 4 (sometimes with connected rooms)

Our guide, Emmanuel was a local Maasai with deep knowledge of the local culture, flora and fauna and helped us find, view ALL big 5s. Other highlights include, viewing Cerval, a nocturnal cat few times, viewing Cheetah and cubs in Ndutu, hard to find Rhino in Ngorongoro

We also had strict vegetarian diet preference which was handled by John and his team every day and each of the accommodations.

Great service and flexible schedule
5/5

I booked both 6-day Kilimanjaro Machame route and 5-day Safari with the company and it turned out to be a great experience.

I acclimated well in Kilimanjaro and communicated with the guide Ami to descend one day in advance. They helped adjust the route and added one more day of city tour in Arusha without additional fee except for accommodation.

They assigned a guide Sam (for the city part) and it was one of my favourite parts in the full journey to explore the city, which proved to be a great balance between natural scenes and local culture.

The safari was more tiring than I expected to drive on the bumped road. However, the guide Ali was very experienced, like other guides, they all have over ten years of experience, so he could always spotted the animals in distance. He found a serval in Serengeti and it’s a rare experience.

Overall, the trip with Serengeti wildlife safari was a nice and correct choice.

The best safari experience I could imagine
5/5

So after sending many quotes to alot of companies I decided to go with this company owned by John. The quote looked great but what would await me was even better. Because of the high season some of the accomodations where not available so we had other ones than that we saw on the quote, but they where much better. For the safari we had experienced guides and we where lucky to see the big 5 in 5 days of safari. The guides had a lot of knowledge about flora and founa and also about history and geography, so every question someone asked would be answerd, and they even liked being asked questions because it challenges them to think.

Overall I would really reccomend booking here if you want a unforgettable safari

Once-in-a-lifetime experience — perfectly organized from start to finish
5/5

We didn’t know Serengeti Safari Wildlife at all before booking, but from the very first moment, they gave us total peace of mind. We were in direct contact with John, the owner, who was always available, responsive and offered unmatched flexibility in everything: from dates, routes, accommodations, and even last-minute changes during the trip.

We booked a private luxury safari through them — and I can honestly say it was significantly more affordable than going through any European agency. The whole experience was perfectly tailored to us.

Our driver and guide, Godson, was simply outstanding. He knew every corner of Tanzania like the back of his hand and always managed to find the best spots to observe wildlife, even in the most remote areas. His driving, tracking skills and warm personality made the entire journey even more memorable — a solid 10/10.

The agency also organized our Mount Kilimanjaro climb, and once again, everything was handled with the same level of flexibility and professionalism. We chose a 6-day trek and were supported by a fantastic 13-person crew, including:
• 2 amazing guides (special thanks to Ami, our lead guide — highly skilled, encouraging and kind),
• A summit guide, chef (the food was unbelievably good every day),
• Assistant and several porters who made us feel completely safe and supported the entire way.

We are not experienced trekkers, but thanks to the team’s careful pacing, encouragement and care, we reached the summit comfortably and without any major issues. They truly helped us push beyond our limits in a way that still felt manageable and enjoyable.

As we were on our honeymoon, they surprised us with thoughtful gifts, including personalized T-shirts and even a celebratory cake. It was a lovely touch that made us feel special and appreciated.

To top it all off, the agency even arranged a charter flight for us from the northern Serengeti back to Arusha — seamless and perfectly handled.

In summary, if you’re looking for a local, trustworthy, flexible and highly professional team, Serengeti Safari Wildlife is a hidden gem. We couldn’t be happier with the service and the memories we now carry for life.

We recommend them 100%, and would book with them again in a heartbeat

Excellent! Very professional and organized with great safari guides!
5/5

This was the trip of a lifetime and we owe it all to John! From the moment we touched down in Kilimanjaro, John had someone pick us up at the airport and drive us to our hotel in Arusha. The next morning we headed to the Serengeti and had an excellent safari guide, Emmanuel. He is Maasai and knew so much about everything! The nature, the history and the animals. He could spot an animal from a mile away which helped us see all the big five and so much more! We felt safe with our guide and he was always happy and pleasant. We did a luxury safari and the accommodations were excellent, great food and service. They sent us off on game drives everyday with a delicious lunch which our guide set up for us. From the Serengeti, we went on to Ngorongoro Crater which was amazing! On the way our guide stopped to show us sites, tell us about the history, let us take photos and found a clean, nice bathroom for us to use within 20 minutes of us asking for a bathroom break. We then drove back to Kilimanjaro for our flight to Zanzibar. John also had a driver pick us up in Zanzibar and take us to our hotel for the night in Stone Town and then picked us up again the next morning to take us to our second hotel farther north in Nungwi Beach. The whole trip was amazing and John is very professional, friendly and trustworthy. He listened to our every need and made it happen! We would not have been able to navigate this amazing trip to Tanzania without him. He had everything planned and organized and did an excellent job. We learned so much on this trip and saw so many amazing things! I definitely plan to come back to Tanzania and my first call will be to John at Serengeti Wildlife Safaris. During the whole trip he was just a phone call or text away to help or answer any question we had. It was like having a good friend in Tanzania that was ready to help with whatever you need. Highly recommend!
