Thank you very much to Whistling Travel for providing this trip for the three of us. It was a very successful trip!
Thank you to Michael for providing us with perfect service throughout our 10-day trip! He thoughtfully prepared snacks and water for us, and most importantly, relied on his extensive experience and knowledge to help us find the animals—cheetahs, leopards, lions, and all sorts of other small creatures. Thank you, Michael! (Sometimes we couldn't understand him, but he was incredibly attentive and patient, explaining things to us time and time again.)

Amazing Safari experience with Whistling Travel
We are so lucky to have Whistling Travel as our guide to do Safari in Tanzania. Boss Alex is very consideration for arranging all the things. And we have recerved roses as gift for our honey moon from him when we arrived airport, which is sooo surprising. Our guide Simon is also a surprise. He is so responsible and has extensive experined in safari. He shared a lot stories and past experience on how to find annimals and what are their living habits, always laugh in the Jeep. And every night we made wishes on what animals we wanna see for next day, and Simon always make it come true!! We are so grateful and lucky to have them as our guide in honey moon, everything is exciting and smooth. We hope to see them again in the near future.

Wonderful trip in Serengeti
Highly recommend this company. Our guide, Baraka, was professional and experienced in animal tracking. The flexible tour plan designed by Alex aligned with animal migration patterns. They also knew Chinese animal names like "Jiaoma" (wildebeest 角馬) and "Tuoniao" (ostrich 鴕鳥), which was very helpful for non-English speakers. Highly recommended!

We had 5-star safari experience with whistling travel.
We had 5-star safari experience with whistling travel and strongly recommend our guide Calvin, who is considerate and professional.
1. Calvin is really a specialist all kinds of animals. He is able to tell the name of small birds from meters away, explain habits of every animal we saw, predict animals‘ behaviors accurately, and find the most suitable position for us to take photos.
2. During our 7-day safari, we started early at 630 in the morning to see more animals, and Calvin was always right there waiting for us once we finished our breakfast. He cleaned the jeep everyday and prepared snacks and drinks to ensure our comfortable experience.
3. We also want to thank Alex and Xiaoxiao to help prepare for our travel as we had an urgent plan change from September to May. They dealed with the change in a high professional way and got everything ready in just a few days.
We really appreciate for Whistling Travel’s work and will definitely choose them again when we are back next time.

This safari operator in East Africa gets five out of five stars
I'm so lucky to have Xiaoxiao, Boss Alex, and Gabriel. Our safari trip in Tanzania was amazing and impressive. Xiaoxiao is like 24/7 customer service. She responds quickly, and she is an excellent planner. We are very happy with the itinerary. Alex checked that everything was okay every day, which made us so touched. Our guide, Gabriel, is young, passionate, experienced, and professional. He has good eyesight for spotting animals. We saw everything we wanted. Also, we were grateful for the welcome flowers, snacks, soft drinks, and wine. Thanks again to the Whistling Team.

Everything about this trip went way beyond our expectations!"😆
On the first day after landing, our guide and the safari company owner greeted us at the airport. They went above and beyond to accommodate our requests – helping buy local SIM cards, fixing our room's weak WiFi, taking us to explore vibrant markets, and introducing authentic local dishes. During game drives, our guide frequently checked on our comfort while demonstrating impressive driving skills. He expertly tracked animal footprints, allowing us to spot lion cubs, rhinos, and other wildlife we'd hoped to see. I’d 100% choose this team again for future African adventures! Can’t wait for you all to experience Africa’s wonders too! 😊

enjoy the process. Safe and satisfied
The determining factors for a trip to Tanzania are the hotels and the guides. The hotels booked by the local travel agency were all confirmed without any changes, except for the Heritage Camp, which was really terrible and deserves a complaint, but I was satisfied with the other hotels. The boss also helped to arrange bean bags in advance, saving the trouble of carrying them. I met a very good guide named Michael, whose presence made the African journey shine. He has high driving skills: ensuring the car doesn't overturn in the rain and doesn't get stuck in the mud. He drives steadily, fast when it should be fast, and slow when it should be slow.
Good interpersonal skills: he can find out where the animals are in the park in the first place through the radio or by calling friends or brothers on the road.
Rich knowledge of animals: he can accurately introduce each animal and its habits, the reasons for animal behavior, and more advanced, he can know the names of various birds.
Stable emotions: he doesn't get angry while driving, is patient in speech, and discusses strategies with tourists when encountering problems. He has rich experience (more than 8 years), loves the guide work, and speaks fluent English.
On a rainy day, when the car was stuck in the grass while watching a lion group, he became a commander, directing the vehicles to move, covering the lion's sight, providing private tools, and helping two cars to break through the lion's encirclement. He is tall, disciplined, and strong, running every day, especially good at taking care of people. The happiest time every day is not watching animals, but chatting with him, exchanging a lot of information about the local customs of each other's countries, understanding his personal emotional life, and finally getting more and more familiar, even measuring his MBTI. A trip, in fact, whether you can see animals or not is secondary, connecting with the local customs and culture is the most impressive. And Michael did it, giving us a very good impression of the country of Tanzania. I hope to see him again in the future.
