Fantastic Safari Experience in Tanzania with Active Wonders Safaris
We booked our East Africa trip through Imara Africa Safaris, and the Tanzania portion was organized by their partner, Active Wonders Safaris. It was an unforgettable experience filled with adventure, incredible wildlife, and genuine hospitality.
Our guide, Amiri (goes by the name Cheena), was absolutely exceptional — knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about wildlife and conservation. He had an amazing eye for spotting animals and made every game drive exciting and educational. His sense of humor made the long drives and full days in the parks truly enjoyable.
At one point, our vehicle broke down due to rough road conditions (just one of many in the Serengeti) — a reminder of how unpredictable the African terrain can be. Cheena handled the situation so well and made sure our trip doesn’t get compromised beyond a minor inconvenience. Another reminder of why having a great tour guide is a very critical component. Just a note, it is very common for vehicle breakdown to happen due to the road conditions in Serengeti and definitely you can’t blame the tour operator.
We were impressed by the team’s organization, communication, and genuine care throughout the journey. From tented camp in the middle of the Serengeti to breathtaking wildlife sightings (a few lion prides and live Cheetah hunt to name a few) in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, every moment was well planned and memorable. Their professionalism, flexibility, and personal touch made this an experience we’ll never forget.
