Reviews
Extremely patient, detail-oriented and friendly.
We just finished an incredible 7-day trip through the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater with Shenga Safaris, and the entire experience was outstanding. From the very start, our operator, Kelvin, was incredibly friendly and super responsive, making the booking and planning completely seamless. Our guide, William, was fantastic—he kept us laughing with his great sense of humor and had an amazing eye for spotting the big animals. Overall, it was a flawless experience and we highly recommend them!

Great people, great accommodations, great food, and most importantly fantastic wildlife sightings!
We went on a safari with Shenga early this may. We were greeted at the airport by kelvin (one of the owners) and Eli (the tour guide. Everything from start to finish on this safari was perfect. From the jeep to the lodges, to the animals we got to see. Eli, our guide, really made our trip. He was so funny and so knowledgeable and really made this an unforgettable expirence. I highly recommend requesting Eli. We saw just about everything we wanted to see. 30 plus lions, some of them just 5 feet away. 5 cheetahs also just a few feet away and so much more. What an experience!
Best Experience I could have dreamed of!
After looking around at various companies, I chose Shanga tours and had an incredible experience. They answer questions quickly, were very organized and professional, and provided the most amount of Safari days (5days) at the lowest price compared to other companies, which only offered 4 days of safari at the same price or higher. They even upgraded us to a nicer lodge at no extra charge. Ellie, our tour guide, was exceptional! He was charismatic, knowledgeable, flexible, and so fun. He genuinely cared that we enjoyed our experience and managed to get us only a few feet away from lionesses, hippos, elephants and their babies, male lions, cheetahs, zebras, wildabeests, etc, etc. you HAVE to choose Shanga tours you won’t be disappointed!!! Thank you Kelvin and Ellie for everything!
A very well educated and smart person that was able to explain any questions we had in detail.
Shenga tours is a great tour service especially when it comes to price. It was very affordable and the experiences had during the tours are ones that I will not forget. I highly recommend anybody to book a tour through Shenga no matter the budget size. Kelvin (one of the owners ) is a very kind and caring person along with our guide Elli. Elli made sure we had fun no matter what we were doing and by the end of the trip became more of a friend than a guide.

Exceptional
I contacted a range of different tour operators for my safari to the Serengeti and to the Ngorongoro Crater. Shenga Tours immediately stood out from the others in the way that they responded quickly and comprehensively and always went the extra mile to respond fully to questions and to provide valuable advice.
Nothing was too much trouble and I was made to feel like I was Shenga's special customer with the degree of attention that was provided. All of the accommodation that we discussed and agreed on lived up to - and exceeded my expectations and the safari itself was an wonderful experience with an excellent driver / guide, who was a great source of information and was expert in tracking down a huge range of animals - including the 'big five'.
Special mention goes to Kelvin who was meticulous in every detail and supported me all the way in my safari plans. He was a total pleasure to deal with and I cannot thank him enough for all his hard work and care. He met me on arrival and escorted me when I left for the airport at the end. He was fundamental in making my safari the huge success that it was. With the current travel problems caused by the situation in the Middle East, Kelvin helped resolve any issues and concerns that arose due to events outside his control. I had to stay an additional night in Tanzania due to flight disruptions and Kelvin immediately stepped in and made hotel arrangements for me accordingly.
I honestly would recommend Shenga Tours and Safaris to anyone who wants a safari organised with peace of mind. It was excellent value for money and I enjoyed every minute.

Great 2day Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari
I spontaneously decided to include a safari while visiting Zanzibar. Kelvin from Shenga office did a great job, he organized everything: transfer to Zanzibar airport, flights, whole safari topics as well as our way back to Zanzibar.
William, our guide & driver, was excellent, too. In our private jeep, we saw a lot of animals: elephants, giraffes, lions, zebras, and so many more.
Thumbs up, we really enjoyed our trip! Asante sana!!

Amazing Experience, Highly Recommend
We were a bit apprehensive about booking because there weren’t many reviews and it was a newer operator but we are so glad that didn’t stop us from booking. Kelvin and his team are professional and quick to respond to any and all questions. Coordinated all of our flights and transfers and was available via WhatsApp for anything we needed. We are so happy we went with Shenga, we felt like we were with family. George, our driver and guide, was the real star of the trip. He was knowledgeable and very adaptable to the needs of the group. We felt incredibly safe during the bush camping, and he was a lot of fun. He was determined to help us see the big five, and we were lucky enough to see them on our 4 day safari. We were on our honeymoon, but opted for the shared tour to meet other travellers and everyone in our group was lovely! The chef who travelled with us was great and the food was local and delicious, he was able to cater to someone in our group with a fish allergy. Would highly highly recommend!!!
