Excellent organization. Perfect guides, very attentive to our well-being and very professional.
Rafiki Tembo Tour completely adapted to our requests and provided us with invaluable advice before our arrival. The team there was wonderful and incredibly attentive. We stayed at Figtree Lodge, which was ideally located for visiting the three sites we wanted to see (Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara). Our itinerary was perfectly suited to our needs, as we were traveling with our 8-year-old son. The vehicle for viewing the animals and nature was very comfortable, and we wanted for nothing, as everything had been thought of. The food (both at the lodge and on safari) was the best we experienced during our entire trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. And all of this came at a perfect price. We are incredibly grateful for this exceptional safari, which we will never forget.

Amazing safari trip
Everything with Rafiki Tembo Tours was perfect. Manager Lowassa and his team are amazing people who took care of us and made our safari tour amazing in every aspect… accomodation, transport, driver, game driving away from crowds.
Also helped us a lot with domestic airline delays (stay away from Precision air!!)
Thank you!!

I would recommend your organisation to everybody who goes on a safari trip your amazin.
It was a beautifull once in a lifetime experience and everybody should do it. I saw the most beautifull animals and environment. Our guide was the best! Eric is a fantastic guy. He took the time to explain every about the animals and other things. He is a very considerated man and was taking the time so that we could get beautifull picture.
If you go on a safari i would reccomend Eric absolutely. He survived 3 days with me and my friends. We laughed a lot.. so thank you for everything and if i ever come back we hope we will go on a trip with Eric again.

Amazing!
We had a three-day safari with Eric. It was fantastic. Eric told us so much about the area and the animals that live there. It was a truly unforgettable experience.

Good Operator, Yet need Correct Guide
Good Points
1. All mid range accomodation they arranged are very good.
2. Best payment terms - I paid more than 80% just day before starting of Safari.
3. They arranged well for my birthday - Celebrations and Gifts.
4. Prices are also reasonable.
5. Northern Tanzania national parks are amazing which will take your breath away.
Bad Experience
Our initial guide driver KeiC spoiled the trip. He has big attitude problems since beginning. Our vehicle broke down multiple times in an easy path where hundreds of other vehicles passed, he didn’t even have any clue what to do next. Luckily other Safari drivers helped over and again. KaiC arranged some one who dropped us in wrong camp. Utter confusion.
For last 2 days they changed driver, but we lost previous time which is key in Safari. Substitute driver was better, Guide Abdul is average.
Do I recommend Rafiki Tembo
Yes, but they need to improve their selection of guide drivers because customers are spending so much money for this experience, can’t afford a driver guide like KaiC.
