Very smooth safari experience from planning to the last day
We booked a 7 days / 6 nights safari in Whistling and had an amazing experience.
They have Chinese-speaking customer service, and the planning process was super smooth. The team was very responsive and customized a great-value itinerary based on our needs. The whole safari was truly eye-opening.
Huge shout-out to our guide Albert—friendly, knowledgeable, funny, and extremely professional. He knows the parks, roads, and wildlife inside out, always arrived early, and kept the vehicle spotless. Every day there were cold drinks, bottled water, and snacks waiting for us.
The food and accommodations were excellent, and customer service checked in with us daily.
Special thanks to Alex for helping us track our delayed luggage and arranging (for free!) a small flight to deliver it to us in the Serengeti. That really saved our trip.
Big thanks to the whole team for making this safari so smooth and memorable.
Highly recommended!🌍🦁

An amazing Safari trip
Our guide Joseph is an awesome guy with good humor. He gave us the most amazing experience on Safari. The food was great for Chinese stomachs. We had lunch boxes on the way every day with 3-4 dishes, fruits and beverages which were very satisfying. Lodges and camps were comfortable and the scenery was unique in Africa. Joseph brought us to see big fives many times. We even saw the hunting of a leopard twice. Overall, it was a memorable and meaningful trip. I would give 10 out of 10.

This travel agency is extremely thoughtful and reliable.
Once we set off, their customer service would check in with us every night to ask about our day and gather feedback on the guide. Our guide Godwin was also highly attentive—he catered to our needs while keeping an appropriate distance. The hotels arranged were perfectly suited to our itinerary. Since our main focus was wildlife viewing, they didn’t book overly luxurious hotels that we wouldn’t have had the chance to fully enjoy. As for the price, we didn’t really compare between many agencies, so can’t comment on that.

Whistling Travel Delivers Perfect Safari Experiences in Tanzania.
There is a Chinese-speaking customer service team, and the pre-trip communication went smoothly. The recommended hotels and tented camps fully met our requirements. Our guide Michael was extremely professional—he managed to locate all the animals we wanted to see. He was also very attentive, kept the vehicle clean at all times, and always paid close attention to our needs.

Unforgettable Safari Experience — Thanks to the Outstanding Guide Michael Ismael
This Safari experience was absolutely perfect and far exceeded all my expectations. It was truly great value for money and a flawless journey from start to finish. All of this wonderful experience is mainly thanks to our outstanding guide, MICHAEL ISMAEL.
MICHAEL is an extremely caring, attentive, and responsible guide. From the very beginning to the end of the trip, he took excellent care of us and always put our needs first. He knew exactly where and when to go, allowing us to see an incredible variety of wildlife — we were fortunate enough to see almost all the animals we hoped for. It is very clear that he has a deep love for this land and wildlife, along with extensive professional experience.
What truly surprised and touched me was that MICHAEL could explain all the animals and related knowledge in Chinese, and his explanations were clear, professional, and engaging. This is incredibly rare and made the entire Safari experience much more meaningful and immersive. His knowledge is impressive, and no matter what questions we asked, he answered patiently and accurately, always doing his best to meet our needs. Throughout the journey, we felt completely safe and confident in him.
Beyond his professionalism, MICHAEL is genuine, friendly, and reliable, making the whole trip relaxed and enjoyable. He is not only an excellent guide but also feels like a trustworthy friend.
And I have to add — he is probably the most handsome Safari guide I’ve ever seen, professional and charismatic.
If you are still deciding which Safari company to choose, this company is absolutely trustworthy and highly recommended. And please don’t forget to choose MICHAEL ISMAEL as your guide.
He will turn your Safari into not just a trip, but a beautiful memory you will treasure forever.
Highly recommended! Five-star review, with heartfelt thanks!

I will give all my best word to this trip and to Whistling
Traveling with Whistling Travel in Tanzania was honestly way beyond our expectations.
We’re two girls visiting Africa for the first time, and many things felt unfamiliar at the beginning. But the Whistling team—especially Crystal, Alex, and our guide Didas—took amazing care of us from start to finish. We felt safe, relaxed, and genuinely well looked after the whole time.
Crystal was always responsive, thoughtful, and patient when helping us before and during the trip. Alex made sure everything on safari was well prepared—drinks, snacks, meals, and all the little details that really make a difference.
And most importantly, our Guide Didas!!
Didas truly made this trip unforgettable. He picked us up at the airport late at night and drove us to Moshi. Both of us get carsick very easily, but he drove extremely smoothly, slowed down for every speed bump, and made sure we were comfortable at all times.
On safari, Didas was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. Thanks to his “eagle eyes” and strong communication network, we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, cheetahs with cubs, leopards, and so much more. He always knew where to go and when to wait.
What we appreciated even more was how much he shared beyond wildlife—local life, culture, education, housing, and even teaching us some Swahili and Maasai words. He’s patient, funny, calm, kind, and very genuine. You can really feel how much he loves his job and his country.
We visited Chemka Hot Springs, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Central Serengeti, and Ndutu. Whistling prepared safari beers, cold drinks (yes, with a cooler!), unlimited water, local snacks, and hot hamper meals every day. Everything was well organized and thoughtful.
Highlights included a night safari, a walking safari with rangers and Maasai guides, watching lion cubs practice hunting, hearing lions roar and hyenas laugh at night, and getting incredibly close to wildlife in the Serengeti. Every day felt special.
Leaving Tanzania was really hard—and saying goodbye to Didas even harder.
We really recommend Whistling Travel, Didas, Crystal, and Alex enough. If you’re thinking about Tanzania, just book with them. You’ll be in very good hands.

Our guide was incredibly experienced and responsible! With reasonable pricing, this tour offered gre
We are utterly thrilled with every aspect of our safari! Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and responsible—he could locate any animal we wished to see almost instantly. The daily itinerary was perfectly paced. We spotted nearly every species on the African wildlife checklist provided to us. Each lodge was uniquely charming, especially the glamorous 'glamping' tent where we fell asleep to the sounds of the wild. The surprise honeymoon arrangement was the most thoughtful touch, making every day absolutely perfect. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

excellent
Didas had eyes as sharp as an eagle's, and he was the first to spot the leopard and the black rhinoceros. On our final day of departure, we encountered chaos due to the presidential election. Didas and Alex stayed with us until we entered the airport, and we could truly feel their sense of responsibility.
