Absolutely Incredible Safari Experience with Oldbeast Vacations!
Oldbeast Vacations was absolutely amazing, and our guide Hari was outstanding. I cannot recommend them enough!
After getting quotes from at least seven different companies, Oldbeast Vacations stood out as the most responsive and best value. The booking process was seamless, Mwana was so communicative and helpful over WhatsApp, making everything super easy.
The safari itself exceeded all expectations. In just four days, we saw over 20 lions, a cheetah with three cubs, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and even a rhino in the distance. Hari ensured we had ample time with the animals, repositioning the vehicle for perfect photos and sharing his binoculars with us for a closer look. His spotting skills were unreal—he even noticed a “spotted thick-knee” bird while driving!
Hari spoke excellent English, was warm, fun, professional, and always made sure we were comfortable, even offering toilet breaks at every opportunity. His navigation skills were equally impressive—he never needed a map and always knew exactly where to go.
The vehicle was clean and well-equipped with a fridge full of water, soft drinks, wine, and beer, plus charging ports and drink holders. The Nikon binoculars were a great touch for wildlife viewing.
The accommodations were great, especially Serengeti Luxury Camping. All our lodgings were clean, welcoming, and accommodating to my vegan diet.
We did the 4-day mid-range tour, which was wonderful, though I’d recommend staying longer in the Serengeti if you can—one night didn’t feel like enough. Even in mid-May, which is shoulder season, we saw so many animals and enjoyed the less-crowded parks. Ngorongoro Crater was especially stunning with fields of yellow flowers.
Honestly, I can’t fault a single thing about this trip. It was the safari of a lifetime. Thank you, Oldbeast Vacations and Hari, for an unforgettable experience!

Posted on Oct 5, 2025Dear Guest,
Wow—thank you for such a detailed and glowing review! We are thrilled to hear that your 4-day safari with Oldbeast Vacations was truly the safari of a lifetime.
Hari will be delighted to hear your kind words—his passion, professionalism, and incredible wildlife spotting skills are exactly what we strive to deliver on every safari. It’s wonderful to know that the vehicle, binoculars, and accommodations, including your vegan diet needs, contributed to your comfort and enjoyment.
We’re so glad you experienced such incredible wildlife encounters—from lions and cheetahs to rhinos and the stunning Ngorongoro Crater—and that the shoulder season allowed for a less-crowded, immersive adventure. Your tip about extending time in the Serengeti is excellent for future travelers!
Thank you again for trusting Oldbeast Vacations and for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you back to Tanzania for another unforgettable adventure soon!
Warm regards,
Mwanne
