An authority on all aspects of local wildlife and plant life, coupled with outstanding guiding skill
Kennedy Mapima is the best! He planned our trip perfectly, considering everything from our wish list to our time and budget. While on safari, he was a fantastic guide – calm, full of fascinating animal facts, and knew exactly when and where to go for the best views. His network of guide friends was a huge bonus for spotting wildlife!

The best experience
Truly special safari experience in Serengeti! Our guide, Champion, from Serengeti Smile, was incredible. His expert knowledge and passion for wildlife allowed us to see a wide variety of animals, from lions to elephants. He went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible. Thanks for an unforgettable experience!

I spent a wonderful holiday organised by Savannah Explorers
I spent 3 days in a tent camp close to the Nyerere Camp; in the first day we had a boat safari, the second day a traditional safari and early in the morning of the first day a walking safari (this last one not very interesting); it was a wonderful experince because both the local guide anf the van driver were very professional. Then we moved to Amani Resort were he stayd 3 days. Wonderful place to enjoy the sea and the beach.
In my opinion Savannah Explorers organised our holyday in a fantastic way.

We had a great time on this Safari, the organization was top, food was plenty and most importantly we saw many animals every day. Special thanks to Humphrey for always reacting quickly on questions and also short notice requests from our side, can't express how grateful we are.

Helpful
SafariLife helped me find the best safari for my budget. I stayed at Langa Langa Camp, it was an incredible experience. The folks at SafariLife were incredibly helpful, even when I arrived at Kruger to make sure I was picked up. Would 100% recommend them for your future trip.

Helpful and very serviceminded
We were happy with our guide, who was a safe and skilled driver. He was patient and answered all our questions. We saw lots of amazing animals and one of our nights in Serengeti we spent in one of the most beautiful places on earth. At night we heard lions and other sounds. It was surprisingly cold at night. Ngorongoro krater was great, too.

Absolutely exceptional to the last detail
Absolutely fantastic holiday. Stanley was brilliant from the start - so helpful over WhatsApp when booking the holiday, right to the last detail. Happy to help at all times. We had Stanley and another guide (Chipa) the entire time and both were brilliant - so knowledgable, patient and friendly. We had three days on the beach at the end to relax and Stanley took care of all the bookings and transfers for us. Every lodge we stayed in exceeded expectations and were perfect in every way. We highly recommend the walking safaris, bike rides and visiting the gorge in Hell’s Gate 🔥

Every details was planned out and executed perfectly.
Peter organized everything for us, making our trip an incredible experience. He greeted us on the morning of our first day, took us to his office to settle our balance, and introduced us to our driver. We had Boniface for the Kenya portion of our safari and Rueben for Tanzania—both were exceptionally knowledgeable about the wildlife and skilled at finding the best viewing spots. While seeing all of the Big 5 isn’t guaranteed, we were lucky enough to spot them all. Even for a budget safari, every detail was well taken care of.
A few helpful tips: You’ll spend a lot of time in a jeep or van, both on game drives and traveling between parks, so be prepared for long hours sitting. The dry climate makes it quite dusty—avoid white clothes or anything you don’t want getting dirty. Bring cash if you’d like to enjoy a beer at the camps or hotels, as not all accept credit cards.
Accommodations vary by location. In Kenya, we stayed in comfortable hotels or raised tents with private bathrooms and showers. In Tanzania, we camped in ground tents with communal washrooms and showers. Meals are mostly buffet-style for breakfast and dinner—not gourmet, but always plentiful. In Tanzania, a cook traveled with us and prepared hot meals. Fresh fruits and juices were available at every stop and were safe to consume.
Overall, an unforgettable safari experience!
