A huge letdown of a company for an amazing experience
We saw an incredible amount of wildlife — lions, elephants, giraffes, even cheetahs — and the Serengeti itself is unforgettable. But sadly, the way this company operates seriously let us down.
They don’t run the safaris themselves — they take your money, then place you in a driver’s vehicle and disappear. The guide we had had never even seen the itinerary we were sold. I booked a 4-day safari with full game drives advertised everyday with Days 2 and 3 in the Serengeti. In reality, we arrived at 4:30pm on Day 2 and left by 2pm on Day 3 — barely 24 hours total. On the Day 4 we left Ngorongoro crater at 11am after being promised ‘full day’ safaris.
Worse, the company dismissed multiple messages during the trip. I gave them a chance to step in and fix things twice, asking for more game drives — all I got were generic AI-sounding replies and no action. The guide refused to change anything, saying it was his “normal” schedule and he doesn’t know what itinerary i’m talking about.
One day, we had to leave cheetahs mid-hunt and rush out of the Serengeti and on the last day the same thing to meet someone else’s flight — a recurring issue, as different people join each day with their own constraints. When I raised this, they were rude and dismissive, saying things like, “Well, on a private safari… you could have done this.” They try and pin the blame on the fact its a shared/ joining safari which is an easy cop out to try and blame you, but when you look around most people on safari are on group tours.
I booked a shared safari happily with a clear itinerary in writing in an information pack sent by them. What I got was about 60% of that — with no apology, no refund, just an attempt of a sales pitch after the trip for a taxi and hotel after they had already taken over $600 per person. All their information pack and inclusions are all lies.
The animals were amazing — but this company does not deliver what it promises. Go for someone else who delivers what they promise. You will love safari but pick the right company! Be cautious.

The best!!
Emma is amazing and was very efficient in organizing every detail of our trip!
I live in Tanzania and organized my previous trips to the parks, it was great relief to rely on her for everything this time.
Emma and Sarah know better the accommodations and their guides were great. We had an amazing time. And prices were not much difference from when i organized myself the safaris… avoiding so much work and stress, it worths the money we paid!!!
Thanks Thousand Times to the Sunset Adventure Safari Tours🙏🙏🙏
I recommended sunset to friends from Washington and they loved it…

Fantastic and professional
We chose this tour operator for our safari in Maasai Mara. The price is quite reasonable for the so-called semi-luxury, aka mid range package. We give 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ including the cust service, suggested accommodation, transportation & awesome tour guide. 100% recommended 👌🏾.
Wycliffe as our tour guide, is reliable, informative, helpful & professional person. He's giving us a space to take thousands of pictures & videos for this once a lifetime safari.

Expert trackers make it a once in a lifetime safari!
What an amazing trip! Our guides were expert trackers and we saw pretty much everything including lion cubs, leopards, wild dogs... The list goes on. Accommodation was comfortable, showers hot and food delicious. Will definitely be using Spoor Tracker Adventures when I go back.
Amazing! I had the best experience ever with Belair Adventures! I'd recommend them any day!
The team is punctual and handles everything promptly! They ensured my friends and I had everything we needed. We got exactly what we paid for! Looking forward to travel with them again

Magical experience with a passionate tanzanian team
We just returned from a 4-day safari with Ndutu Green Explorers and it was simply incredible! From the very start, the whole team took amazing care of us. Tom, our main contact, was extremely helpful, attentive, and well-organized. A special mention goes to our guide, Culvet, who spoke perfect Italian and English and made this experience absolutely unforgettable, we can call him “rafiki”!
Culvet was not just a driver, but a true expert and wildlife enthusiast who went above and beyond to fulfill every one of our wishes — and more! One of the highlights was an unforgettable day spent following the Great Migration in breathtaking spots, and searching for our favorite animal: the cheetah! Thanks to his incredible knowledge and instinct, we found it — along with all of the Big Five and so many other animals we never thought we’d see.
We explored Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti in a super comfortable and fully-equipped jeep. Every detail was taken care of, including the accommodations — all excellent, especially their brand-new Friends Camp & Lodge in the Serengeti, which we absolutely loved.
Another huge plus is that the entire team is made up of passionate and professional Tanzanians, something we truly appreciated. They also took care of organizing our domestic flights from and to Zanzibar, including private airport transfers — making the whole experience smooth and stress-free from start to finish.
Throughout the trip, we learned so much about the wildlife and the ecosystems, thanks to the passion and professionalism of this team. If you’re looking for a genuine, personalized, and awe-inspiring safari experience, look no further than Ndutu Green Explorers. Highly recommended!

Like having a personal nanny — everything is taken care of for me, so I can simply enjoy the safari
I made this trip decision at the last minute, as I wanted to experience the charm of an African safari on my own. Even so, the company was able to respond quickly to my request. We discussed the details via WhatsApp, and I always received prompt replies and was offered the best possible arrangements. They sent a Land Cruiser to pick me up from the hotel. The guide, Frank, and the driver were very friendly and gave me a detailed introduction to Tanzanian culture, food, and customs. During the safari, they explained the names, characteristics, and interesting stories about each animal. Next time I come to Tanzania for a safari, I will definitely choose this tour company again.
