Wonderful Safari
Our trip through Tanzania with Vervet Safari Tours was terrific. We visited Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in the 8 days we were on safari.
Planning the trip was easy as basili was professional and quick with the responses. In the end we created an itinerary that had all the activities that we wanted. Their charges were also reasonable.
Our guide Baraka deserves special commendation for being all rounded and so outstanding.
His presence made the trip better as he knew all th routes, about the animals and lots of insight about Tanzania. Everyday with him was a day well spent as he led us to new adventures.
All the lodges and tented camp that we were booked in were fabulous. They made us feel welcome, comfortable and had great food.
If I were to do this again, I would still go with Vervet Safari Tours.

Serious, passionate and fun
We did 6 days in Mana Pools floodplain and Chitake Springs in September 2024 with Khangela Safaris. Mike is an excellent guide and provided great insights on the animals, plants, and the places we visited. We did a fair bit of walking mixed with some drives, tracking and finding lions, hyenas, elephants and plenty of other animals. Mike and Bernhard would plan each day based on what we saw the previous day and heard through the night to predict where certain animals might be.
The camps are basic but we enjoyed the experience of being in the African bush, sharing campfire stories under starlit skies, and listening to lions and hyenas as you sleep. The food was fantastic, and the small team worked tirelessly to make sure we were comfortable and well fed. The camp is also very low impact which we appreciated, and this resonated through the entire experience. Mike always put the safety of his guests and the welfare of animals above pushing for great sightings. And in the end our patience paid off with excellent sightings as well.
If you are looking for a luxury lodge experience, then this is not for you. But if you want a real bush experience that runs at the pace of nature, with excellent guiding then go with Mike Scott and Khangela Safaris.

Peter Kapino is very friendly, uncomplicated and pragmatic. Knows a lot about culture and animals.
We spent 3 days with Peter Kapino and enjoyed all the moments. I always felt safe and comfortable with him, on the roads and in the park with all the wild animals. He made sure we'd see as many different animals as possible. He would often tell us facts about the animals or culture which was very interesting. 10/10 would recommend.

Reliable and helpful person, he drives well and we manage to arrive place on time.
In general the trip is good. We see many animals and went to the three parks that we booked. Hotel rooms are all booked correctly, there is no bad situation happen to us.
The only thing might be a bit annoying is, as we are a small group, we swapped the travelling buddies twice and due to that, I feel we might waste some time on the way. It is understandable that other companies do this as well. It is just a matter of expectations.
James is our guide, he is a good one, we followed the schedule mostly on time and we saw a lot of animals.
We did not manage to go Masai village or Naivasha lake, as we have tight schedule on the travelling.
Thanks a lot to Axis Africa for the amazing trip. Really appreciate it.

Roko Safaris makes our Lake Natron trip into a fabulous memorable fantastic experience.
We are city folks from Singapore and Lake Natron is the most remote place we have ever been. Many tour operators offer trips to the lake, even Booking com offer a few accommodations choice . But i am so glad i got in touch with Miranda through WhatsApp to plan a 4 days stay. Deciding what we want was easy - to experience the Maasai culture, villages walk, the desolate landscape, the alkaline lake, view wildlife flamingoes, giraffes, zebras, baboons , waterfalls hike, chill out at her lodge. All our wishes are fulfilled! Miranda is easy going and planned the itinerary effortlessly, quick and detailed quote. All to suit your timing, pick up location and return. (Moshi-Natron-Arusha for us) Settling of payment terms was easy through Wise account. The guest house hospitality was amazing, rooms clean and comfortable ensuring a a good sleep. But most of all it is a family cottage and the atmosphere is warm. The team of staff are awesome, friendly and caring. The meals we had are excellent, fresh and healthy. It was a Chef menu every day! and we really enjoyed mealtimes. Although we didn’t plan to climb the volcano mountain. There are enough things to keep you occupied for 2 to 3 days if you are planning to come this way. Two gentlemen assigned to us also makes this journey fun, driver Lazaro and guide Massi. We love their company and plenty of memorable pictures! Miranda can organise safaris with a combination of Lake Natron, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti, i am sure it will be fantastic. Thank you to the professional team with years of experience, Roko Safaris kept us safe and happy.

Unforgettable Safari with the Best Team!
This was our very first safari in Kenya, and thanks to Lucy and our guide Kevin, it became an unforgettable journey!
When we first reached out to book the safari, Lucy was incredibly helpful—she responded to all our questions quickly and thoroughly, which made us feel very reassured, even from faraway Japan. She was also flexible with the payment options, which made the whole process smooth and worry-free.
During the safari, we were deeply grateful for Kevin's outstanding guidance. He picked us up early in the morning to match our flight schedule, and from that moment on, everything was handled with care and professionalism. His calm and friendly attitude, exceptional driving skills, and sharp eye for spotting wildlife allowed us to see every animal we dreamed of—and more! Whenever we were captivated by a particular animal, he gave us plenty of time to watch and enjoy without rushing us. It was such a peaceful and fulfilling experience.
If you're considering a safari, I wholeheartedly recommend Savannah Woods Safaris. They truly made our trip the memory of a lifetime!

It was a wonderfull Experience wich made Dreams come true.
From the Beginning everything was well planned. Edward and his Team handled everything to our complete satisfaction.
Even there were difficulties with the flights (right to the Change from low to highseason) Edward did everything to make our Experience possible.
The Payment was very easy and absolutely fair, you can trust the link he send.
We just payed 20% Downpay, so that Edward could hold the Flight for us. The Rest we Coups pay by Card at the Airport.
We booked really short term, but Everything works.
The Transfer was included and the Driver was really nice.
The Flight was so amazing-we hard a very small Plane and a really cute Captain who let us tanke a Seat beside him. He Flow us safely to Tanzsnia,comeing from Sansibar.
Our Guides ELI and DAVID were really attentive, very well knowing a lot to Tell about Nature, People and Life. Eli spoke very good Englisch, David talked even german with us!
They were really cute and always took good care of us.
We saw a lot of Animals- Elephants, Giraffes, Pumbas, Zebras, Krokodiles, Buffallos Hippos and even a Leopard, which is really rare to see.
The Lodges were really nice and comfortable for beeing directly in the Jungle.
The Jeep we used was a strong 4x4 Landrover in best Conditions.
We would give 10 out of 10 Points!
