Great company, highly recommend
I had an amazing experience with this safari company. They organized a 5 day safari to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater, which are some of the most beautiful and wildlife-rich national parks in Tanzania. The itinerary was well planned and covered all the main attractions and activities in each park.
The driver guide Adam was amazing, informative, and friendly. He knew a lot about the animals, plants, and culture of the area. He also drove safely and skillfully on the rough roads. He always made sure we had the best views and opportunities to see the wildlife. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, cheetahs, leopards, hippos, crocodiles, flamingos, and many more. It was a dream come true for me.
The accommodation was super b. We stayed in comfortable and clean lodges and tents with private bathrooms and hot showers. The food was delicious and varied. The staff was courteous and helpful. The views from the lodges and tents were stunning. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset over the savanna and the lake.
This safari was one of the best experiences of my life. I highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to have an unforgettable adventure in Tanzania. They are professional, reliable, and affordable. Thank you for making my trip so memorable.

Professional and much caring team
Our 5 day safari organized by Sote Tours and Travel was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Before booking, I exchanged several emails with Kelvin, who answered every question in great detail and with genuine dedication. He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and designed a trip that perfectly matched our dream itinerary: a safari combined with visits to a Maasai village and the Hadzabe community. Throughout the journey, Reuben demonstrated exceptional professionalism and care, always ensuring our safety, comfort, and peace of mind.
The safari itself exceeded all our expectations. The accommodations in Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area were far better than we had imagined, offering both comfort and an unforgettable atmosphere in the heart of nature. Our guide, Reuben, who works closely with Kelvin, was outstanding. He was kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating information about the wildlife and ecosystems we encountered, which made every game drive even more enriching.
One of the highlights of the trip was our visit to the Maasai village. Experiencing the traditional dances, learning how to make fire, and, most importantly, having meaningful and authentic conversations with the Maasai people made this visit truly special. Everything felt respectful, genuine, and far removed from mass tourism. I wholeheartedly recommend Sote Tours and Travel to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania, and I am especially grateful to Kelvin for creating such a memorable and perfectly organized experience.

Fantastic Safari with an extraordinary wildlife experience
Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The tour operator did an outstanding job, taking care of every detail and ensuring that communication was always clear, prompt, and easy.
Each day was thoughtfully planned, and our tour guide Michael consistently checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable with the itinerary and enjoying the experience. The lodges we stayed in were truly luxurious, the food was excellent throughout the trip, and we experienced no health issues at all. The staff at every location were welcoming, professional, and friendly. We had an absolutely fantastic experience and couldn’t have asked for a better trip. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this tour to others.

An Unforgettable Family Safari Experience
Our family of four (two adults and two children, ages 8 and 5) had an incredible safari with Sote Tours and Travel. From the initial planning through the end of the trip, everything was well organized and thoughtfully arranged, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
Our guide, Cornell, was knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about wildlife. Thanks to his expertise, we were fortunate to see an amazing variety of animals, including all of the Big Five. He shared interesting information throughout the safari and made sure we had the best opportunities for wildlife viewing. Transportation was reliable, safe, and well-coordinated throughout the trip. Every transfer and game drive was punctual, and we always felt that everything had been carefully planned.
We stayed at Tukaone Serengeti Tented Camp, which was an excellent choice. It offered a comfortable stay while still providing the authentic feeling of being surrounded by nature. It was the perfect balance between comfort and the wilderness.
Overall, this was a memorable family adventure that exceeded our expectations. We returned home with wonderful memories and would happily recommend Sote Tours and Travel to anyone looking for a well-organized and unforgettable safari in Tanzania.
