Serengeti Insider Safaris gave us the BEST safari experience in Tanzania!
We booked a 6-day private safari tour with Serengeti Insider Safaris. From the very beginning, Yusef was great with communication and worked with us to create a personalized itinerary. We spent 1 day in Tarangire National Park, 2 days in central/west Serengeti, 2 days in Ndutu (for the calving season) and 1 day in Ngorongoro crater. We saw the Big 5 and so much more! The accommodations were beyond expectations and the coordination of the entire experience was so smooth from pickup at the airport to drop off after the entire safari. Our safari guide Kelvin was the BEST and so great at finding animals and keeping to our planned itinerary. I cannot recommend Serengeti Insider Safaris enough - anyone thinking about booking a safari in Tanzania should book with this local company! Many thanks to Yusef, Kelvin and the entire team for this once in a lifetime experience that was so special!

Incredibly friendly, attentive, and responsive tour group!
We had the best Safari experience thanks to Serengeti Insider Safaris. Throughout the planning process they were incredibly attentive to help formulate the perfect six day safari with accommodations and game drives that fit our every desire. They were well connected with operators in Zanzibar to help plan the second half of our trip as well. I would 100% use them again to plan another safari.
Our guide, Kelvin was exceptional. He knew the answer to every question we could ask. He was super friendly and made us feel right at home. And critically important, he was an expert driver, seemingly getting us in the perfect position for every photo of Leopards, Cheetas, Giraffes, Rhinos, etc throughout the Safari. I would be honored to have him drive me on future safari expeditions.

Big 5 Sightings and Many Laughs with Serengeti Insider
We had a 6 day private safari organized in January 2026. From the initial communication with Yusef, organization of accommodations, planning for parks and every last minute detail, we were well cared for and always in the loop. The accommodations we stayed at were absolutely stunning and service was terrific. Having been all over the world, I can say confidently that Insider Serengeti is the best!
We would always insist on booking again with insider Serengeti when we return and will be recommending Yusef and co to all of our friends and family.

Dream Safari: Great Stays & Incredible People
I went on an amazing safari trip last month, and it totally exceeded my expectations! The hotels and safari tents we stayed in were fantastic—clean, comfortable, and totally worth every penny for the great value they offered.
A huge shout-out to Yusef, the owner of our travel agent. His service was incredibly professional and thoughtful. When we ran into a small issue on the first day, he stepped in right away and resolved it with great care, making sure our trip got back on track smoothly.
But the star of the show has to be our guide, Daniel! He is absolutely incredible—handsome, super knowledgeable about the wildlife and the area, and an excellent driver who navigated the rough terrain with ease. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone planning a safari! And let’s not forget Immanuel, the sweet driver for our coffee tour on the last day. He’s such a lovely guy who took the most stunning photos of us.
The food throughout the trip was also really delicious. However, I do want to remind future travelers to have realistic expectations about Africa's infrastructure—once you do that, you’ll be able to fully immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of this incredible land.
What truly made this trip unforgettable was the people we met. Everyone was so warm, friendly, hardworking, and neat, which completely shattered the unfair stereotypes I used to hear. This journey made me fall head over heels for Africa. If you’re planning a safari, don’t hesitate to book with this agent—you won’t regret it!

A great experience through Safari and Kilimanjaro hiking
Based on the excellent reviews we found online, we decided to entrust this company with the most important excursions of our trip to Tanzania, in particular the safari in Serengeti National Park and a day-long hike along the trails of Kilimanjaro. Our expectations were not disappointed; in fact, every word read by other customers was fully confirmed by our experience. The helpfulness, professionalism, organisation and precision demonstrated by Youssef and his entire staff allowed us to return home with no regrets, having enjoyed a trip that lived up to our expectations! Thank you for everything!

We left feeling like family.
Yusef is the absolute BEST!! We did the Materuni Waterfall hike and coffee farm tour with him. Halfway through the hike we wanted to change our tour and take our time/enjoy and didn’t want to go to the Hot Springs. He immediately agreed. He was fun, welcoming, knowledgeable, and very well respected. We still keep in touch and have recommended anyone considering Tanzania to reach out to him. We sadly booked our safari before knowing he did them or else we would’ve booked safari with him!

Professional, Heartfelt, and Unforgettable—A Safari Operator with True Passion and Reliability
Choosing Serengeti Insider Safaris for our Tanzania safari was the best decision we made for this trip.
From the very first communication, their team showed exceptional professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. They weren’t just “doing business”—you could feel their true passion for delivering extraordinary safari experiences, which made every interaction pleasant and reliable.
Before the trip even started, they welcomed us with thoughtful gifts and warm hospitality, making us feel right at home instantly.
The safari itself was beyond our expectations. The accommodations were surprisingly luxurious, completely reshaping our perception of what “African lodging” could be. Our driver-guide was a true expert in every sense—his driving skills, ability to spot animals, knowledge of wildlife, and willingness to assist guests were all flawless. Over seven days and six nights, we encountered new animals daily, ticking off all the “Big Five” and so much more. We saw cheetahs three times, a leopard hunting, a herd of over fifty elephants crossing behind our vehicle, and even a litter of six lion cubs drinking at a waterhole in a line—scenes I’d only seen in documentaries before, now etched into my memory forever.
Beyond the safari, they went above and beyond to help arrange additional activities like a waterfall hike, a hot spring visit, a Hadzabe tribe hunting experience, and a Serval wildlife estate tour.
Yusef, in particular, was incredibly helpful and kind—we even became real good friends! A BIG special thanks for him again!
I guarantee, with my health and wealth, that every word here is true. If you’re planning an African safari, don’t hesitate to choose Serengeti Insider Safaris—you’ll have no regrets. Wishing everyone good luck and an equally remarkable, once-in-a-lifetime adventure in Africa!
