The tour operator was genuinely trustworthy, and the driver was reliable and highly skilled.
I booked my trip through WeChat with their customer service team, and the communication throughout was smooth and enjoyable. Once I arrived in Tanzania, I was fortunate to be assigned an incredibly experienced driver and guide named Benald.
Benald was not only highly professional in tracking wildlife, but also very patient and committed. During our visit to the Mara River crossing, he took us to four different locations, waiting with us for nearly four hours — thanks to his expertise and persistence, we witnessed the dramatic wildebeest crossing, something many other tourists missed due to lack of patience. We were lucky enough to see the tail end of a second crossing later on, and during our final attempt, we only had to wait five minutes before another large group of wildebeest crossed right in front of us.
He also found us an ideal spot to observe lions for an entire afternoon, managing to secure a prime viewing location despite the high demand and pressure. Throughout the trip, Benald was incredibly hardworking, respectful, and calm. With him by our side, we didn’t have to worry about a thing. His experience, patience, and dedication made our safari unforgettable.
👉 Highly recommend requesting Benald as your driver and guide — his professionalism and passion make all the difference!
I wholeheartedly recommend Whistling Travel for anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Thoughtful customer service, professional tour guides, and reasonable itinerary arrangements
1.They have a dedicated Chinese-speaking sales named Yuanyuan, who is highly professional in aspects such as itinerary planning, reminder of precautions, and emergency response.
2.Albert is an extremely professional safari guide. He has received specialized training in knowledge about various animal species, enabling him to identify different types of animals promptly and quickly find the corresponding explanations in the animal handbook. He has incredibly "Eagle eyes" which allow him to spot well-hidden animals in the distance, such as cheetahs. Additionally, he has an extensive network of friends which help obtain useful information from other guides in real time, helping us catch sight of the Big Five and the "Crossing of the Mara River".
3.The itinerary arrangement for Zanzibar is also excellent. The local guide, Deco, is a wonderful person. He graduated from one of the top three universities in Tanzania and has unique insights into the local culture and history. Highly recommended.

Perfect trip
Starting from March to October, both before and during the trip, the boss and customer service responded very quickly. The guide Albert was also very nice, professional, humorous, and up-to-date with WeChat, which was very convenient to contact. Highly recommended

A very memorable safari trip
After comparing dozens of travel agencies, Whistling Travel stood out for its efficient customer service and seamless communication. Our guide Edson proved to be a reliable and experienced professional, skilled at spotting wildlife and securing optimal camera angles while providing detailed explanations. While the overall accommodations were excellent with top-notch services, the two-night camp stay in northern Serengeti felt more challenging. However, the daily safari experience was so exhilarating that we could simply collapse into bed after each day's adventure. I would recommend this agency to fellow travelers.

Good reaction, good guide and value for money
1. They have Chinese sales named Yuanyuan, that if you could not communicate well in English, this agency is a good choice.
2. The guide Albert, we like him very much, he majored in Wild Animals Management in university, 9 years guide experience and he is really knowledgeable and smart! We really recommend him!
3. In Zanzibar, the hotel made wrong reservation, the company owner Alex coordinate quickly, but we really don’t like the Zanzibar hotel- Reef and Beach Zanzibar, it’s bad!!! Don’t book it!
