Memorable safari Experience with Sote Tours and Travel
We really had a wonderful time seeing Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro, and Tarangile on our 3 Day Safari! Shirima, our experienced tour guide, helped to make this trip fun and educational. He was very knowledgeable regarding all aspects of the tours; his ability to take questions and explain each wildlife sighting was exceptional! His ability to locate animals was awesome; so thankful for him! Our accommodations and food were excellent too.

The most memorable tour ever
We went on a 5 day safari to Tarangire National park, Serengeti National park and Ngorogoro Crater it was a great experience with a lot of adventure. We arrived at the Kilimanjaro airport at 01:30am and our driver Canaan was there to pick us up with a sign and take us to the Mount Meru hotel in Arusha, the whole trip was incredible hard to describe! Every experience was spot on.
Our guide, Mr. Michael, knew a ton and took care of everything for us during those 5 day. Even though it was the short rainy season, we still saw a ton of animals. Everyone we met on the tour was super friendly. The food and lodging were way better than I expected, and the price was totally worth it. Overall, the staff service was top-notch. I'd definitely recommend this company for your trips.
Asante sana Sote Tours and Travel

Best choice of safari operator
From the moment we started planning, this trip was something special. Kelvin handled everything for us honestly, he made organizing our Tanzania adventure feel effortless. As soon as we landed, Mdoe met us at the airport, and everything just flowed from there. No hiccups, no stress.
Reuben, our guide what a guy. He was friendly, sharp, and seemed to know everything about the animals and the landscape. He took care of us the whole way. I couldn’t believe how good he was at spotting wildlife half the time, he’d point something out before anyone else even grabbed their binoculars. On day one, we saw the Big Five, even the rhino, which we heard is pretty hard to find.
We visited in mid-November, so we caught the Great Migration. Seeing all those animals and birds up close was unreal.
Honestly, I still can’t get over how amazing it was. We’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Incredible guides, unforgettable experience
I had a dream to climb Kilimanjaro Mountain and indeed choosing Sote Tours and Travel was the best decision that I made. They were professional and reassuring from the start. Every question I had was answered quickly, and the itinerary was crafted to provide me with my best chance of reaching the summit safely.
The mountain team was exceptional. We couldn't have asked for better guides, very professional- obviously in terms of knowledge, routes, terrain and altitude but also people who were just nice guys. They followed our health closely, kept us motivated during the hard times and then marched set a milestone after another with us. The porters were fantastic, they never stopped carrying our food, setting up camp before we arrived (and after we left), making sure our climb and the surrounds were as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.
Another highlight was the meals. Each dish was nutritious, filling, and fresh just what you need at a high altitude. The chef's ability to prepare such a wide variety in the middle of the mountain was impressive.
The kindness and dedication of the Sote Tours crew added even more significance to the incredible experience of reaching Uhuru Peak. To anyone who has aspirations of climbing Kilimanjaro, I heartily recommend them.
Asante Sana Sote Tours crew

Beyond expectations amazing and wonderful! Tanzania Safari
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Sote Tours and Travel for an unforgettable safari experience. From the seamless pickup to the exceptional hotel service, every detail was perfectly arranged. The hot air balloon experience was a breathtaking highlight and truly worth it. Our stay in the Serengeti felt surreal an experience we will cherish for a lifetime. Highly recommend Sote Tours and Travel.

Great customer service Reuben was amazing guide
We spent 6 days on safari in Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire national park in October for our honeymoon, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. Our guide, Reuben, made the experience exceptional. We were able to see the Big Five more than once, and his outstanding knowledge, excellent English, and ability to answer even the most challenging questions greatly enriched our journey.
Reuben’s professionalism, sense of humor, and warm company especially during our daily bush lunches made our safari unforgettable. We highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari; our trip would not have been the same without him. We will truly miss him

An Incredible Safari Experience with an Exceptional Safari Guide
We had an absolutely wonderful and truly unforgettable 7 day safari experience one that far exceeded our expectations. Our itinerary was thoughtfully customized to align perfectly with our preferences and budget, meticulously arranged by Kelvin (Travel Consultant). Every aspect of the journey from the destinations and lodges to the cuisine and, most importantly, our guide Shao was exceptional. Without hesitation, we would rate the entire experience a full 100 stars.
We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have had Shao as our guide. With 15 years of professional experience, his expertise in wildlife identification, animal behavior, and safe yet skillful driving enriched our trip immensely. His remarkable ability to explain everything we encountered, combined with his deep knowledge of Tanzania’s wildlife, culture, and way of life, transformed our safari into something truly extraordinary.
Although this was our first safari, we can confidently and wholeheartedly recommend this agency. It has been, without question, one of the most memorable and rewarding trips we have ever taken.
Thank you very much!

Truly Amazing Experience
I discovered Sote Tours and Travel through their Instagram page. After receiving over 7 quotes, Sote Tours was able to give me the best price for what I wanted. Kelvin proved to be an excellent professional because he demonstrated ongoing patience and helpfulness throughout our entire project from beginning to end. Our guide Shirima was the best, we couldn't have asked for a better guide. Picked mid-range accommodation. The entire experience with Kelvin started with a great first impression because he handled all problems professionally and without creating any stress. Would definitely recommend!!

Thumbs up for Sote Tours and Travel
Our safari in Tanzania was unforgettable, all thanks to Kelvin and Reuben. Kelvin handled every detail with care from planning the trip to making last minute changes without breaking a sweat. He really listened to what we wanted and worked within our budget, so the whole adventure felt tailor-made for us.
The places we stayed were comfortable and put us right in the heart of nature. They just felt right. Honestly, we got way more than we paid for.
Reuben, our driver and guide, brought the trip to life. He’s not just professional he’s warm, easy to talk to, and his English is spot on. Plus, he knows so much about Tanzania’s wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five, caught the wildebeest migration, and visited some truly amazing parks.
If you’re thinking about a safari in Tanzania, go with Kelvin and Reuben. They turned a dream trip into something even better.
