A Wildlife Adventure Beyond Expectations - March 2025
Our family's spring safari with Serengeti Silence redefined what an exceptional tour should be. When we set out that crisp March morning, we never imagined we'd return with such incredible memories and new appreciation for Tanzania's wilderness.
The star of our journey was undoubtedly David, whose tracking skills bordered on supernatural. While other guides might show you animals, David introduced us to the park's hidden dramas - from monitor lizards sunning on rocks to python tracks barely visible in the dust. His ability to anticipate wildlife movements meant we enjoyed front-row seats to nature's best performances.
What impressed us most was how David tailored the experience for our mixed-age group. The children hung on his every word as he turned animal facts into captivating stories, while the adults appreciated his deep ecological insights. His cheerful "There! By the acacia tree!" became our favorite phrase of the trip.
Serengeti Silence's operation ran with military precision yet felt warmly personal. Vehicles were impeccably maintained, schedules perfectly timed for optimal viewing, and every staff member went the extra mile. Special mention must go to Sienna, whose pre-trip consultation felt more like chatting with a knowledgeable friend than a sales transaction. She remembered my daughter's birdwatching interest and surprised us with a customized checklist.
This wasn't just a safari - it was a masterclass in wildlife tourism. For anyone seeking more than just a checklist of big game sightings, but rather a deeply engaging immersion into nature, Serengeti Silence delivers magnificently. We left not just with photographs, but with a transformed understanding of this magnificent ecosystem.

Unforgettable experience
Our family had an unforgettable experience with Obag Africa Safari! From the moment we arrived, the team was incredibly warm and welcoming. They tailored our safari to fit our family's interests, and we loved every moment exploring the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The guides were knowledgeable and made sure to engage our kids with fascinating stories about the wildlife. Highly recommend for any family looking to explore Tanzania

The very best!
This was our first safari and wasn't sure what to expect. Our flight landed early and the driver/tour guide, Moses, rushed to get us. The drive from Nairobi to Maasai Mara was about 5 hours. Great conversation with Moses made this go by quickly. He really shined once we arrived in the Mara and was extremely knowledgeable with the flora, fauna, geography, etc. He even joined us while we visited a Maasai tribe. Vacay Holiday deals provided a new Landcruiser which Moses operated with great care. Where other vehicles would become stuck, Moses would not risk and found another route. His 17 years of experiense and sense of humor made this the highlight of our travelles, which also included the Seychelles, Egypt, and Italy. That should say it all. Thank you Vacay and thank you, Moses! P.S. help out the industry and go in the off-season.

Amazing adventure!
Incredible experience. Mack made everything easy for us with booking, transfers, and various activities. Sleeping in the middle of the Serengeti and Ngorogoro was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. The staff was very friendly and attentive, always looking out for our comfort. It was incredible to meet young people with such interesting lives to share. If you like adventure and backpacking, this is the safari for you. Incredible national parks! I recommend it 100%.

Shannon was attentive, friendly, on point, and keenly tuned in to our needs and wants.
A great adventure such as the one that my family had in the Kruger National Park starts with planning, and the planning started with an exceptional guide: our tour operator Shannon. She helped us find what we wanted before WE even knew what we wanted; additionally, she was kind and so helpful working within our budget. The difference with booking with Shannon and other bigger operators is that personal attention, which doesn't come with a big price tag as you might assume. We decided to stay in a smaller lodge (Nsala Wilderness Camp), a brilliant choice for us despite the lack of air conditioning (which we absolutely didn't need in March anyway). This lodge attracts a particular type of cosmopolitan, adventurous traveler because it is deep in the bush and not a hotel chain or luxury spa stay. We met like-minded fellow travelers and had amazing conversations around the long wooden dining table; got to know our absolutely amazing tracker and his wife, who cooked the most delicious meals for us (including a very, very special barbecue around the boma on our last day), watched as an elephant came to drink out of the pool late at night, and just generally enjoyed being out in the wilderness with such attentive, friendly staff and our fellow explorers. It was Shannon, not our research, who brought Nsala to our attention. I credit her with the success of our safari, the adventure of a lifetime.

Unforgettable Safari
We chose this safari trip for our honeymoon. It was the best deciosion. We did the 6-day safari with Anthony. To be honest, Anthon was the one who made it perfect with all the stories, skills to find the animals. We saw 4 leopard! That was huge, others can not see one in many days.
One of our accomodation was changed, and we had to pay in forward the full amount of money. But overall the experience was 5*, nothing was missing.

Amazing
The experience of this tour was unforgettable, especially the gorilla visit, a once in a lifetime moment. Dav Safari did a great job and the accommodations in general very nice, although too many hours on the road. Our guide, Benjamin, helped us in every way possible. 100% recommended trip.

An unforgettable African adventure!!!!!!!!
We were a family of four on the 8-day Victoria Falls–Delta–Okavango tour, and it was truly the experience of a lifetime. From start to finish, Africa Zim Travel & Tours were kind, professional, and incredibly prompt in answering all our questions. They thoughtfully catered to our dietary needs, making the journey smooth and stress-free.
A special thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Pamela, who drove us all the way from Victoria Falls to Maun with such grace, care, and kindness. Her knowledge and calm presence made every moment enjoyable and memorable.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful and well-organized African adventure. Thank you very much, Africa Zim Travel!

A Truly Unforgettable Safari Experience with Dendea Safaris!
This March, we decided to trade screen time for adventure and finally answered the call of Africa with a family trip to Tanzania. While researching safari options, we came across Dendea Safaris, run by the wonderful Mr. Sudi—and we’re so glad we did!
From our very first message, Mr. Sudi was warm, responsive, and incredibly helpful. He crafted a perfect 6-day safari itinerary covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and local sights in Arusha—all planned smoothly over WhatsApp. Transferring the advance was easy, and we felt completely confident from the start.
Upon arrival, Mr. Sudi welcomed us at Kilimanjaro Airport, ensured we settled in, and gave us a detailed briefing for the adventure ahead. What followed was beyond anything we imagined—breathtaking landscapes, unforgettable wildlife sightings, and seamless travel between locations.
We were also joined by Mr. Peter, our amazing camp chef, whose meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) were an absolute treat—especially for our two kids who adored both the food and the warmth of his company.
Throughout the trip, Mr. Sudi made sure we were comfortable, safe, and fully immersed in the safari experience. His patience with our children’s endless questions and his ability to connect with them was heartwarming—they were genuinely sad to say goodbye on the final day.
This was more than a holiday—it was a beautiful memory we’ll cherish forever. If you're planning a safari from Arusha, we wholeheartedly recommend Dendea Safaris. You’re not just booking a trip—you’re gaining a guide, a friend, and a truly unforgettable experience.
