This tour operator is great
We definitely recommend Magical Gorilla Adventures! They are very fast in responding and they arranged a very nice 3-day safari tour to Akagera National Park for us. Everything was taken care of! We had a great driver/guide Faustin and the lodges in Akagera NP were really fantastic!
We really had a great experience. We loved every minute of it!

Provided an outstanding experience by anticipating our needs and wants.
The tour was balanced. It integrated comfort with live cultural experiences. The accommodations were superlative, both in Arusha and in Zanzibar. The vehicles used for the Safari were modern and handled our sometimes bumpy terrain skillfully.

Fantastic 14-Day Safari Trip – North Tanzania & Zanzibar
From the very first request for a quotation to our return flight home, everything was perfectly arranged by Mwanne Arts and our amazing driver/guide Paul.
Paul is a highly skilled, calm, and professional guide who truly goes the extra mile to make your game drives unforgettable. He’s not only passionate about wildlife, but also genuinely helpful—even supporting other guides and organizations on the road. Thanks to him, we saw many animals we’d never seen before and learned so much about them.
One of the highlights was visiting an authentic Maasai tribe, where we were dressed in traditional clothing and joined in their dances. We also took a guided hike at Lake Natron with a Maasai guide to see flamingos up close—an unforgettable experience.
The accommodations were stunning, each carefully chosen to enhance the safari mood. Imagine zebras and other wildlife walking right outside your tent or lodge! The food was excellent too, with delicious local dishes served with warm hospitality.
We can’t recommend the hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti enough—absolutely magical. From the breathtaking views to the champagne landing and bush breakfast, every detail was perfect. Plus, professional photos from the experience were emailed to us for free!
Everywhere we went, we were met by friendly local and Maasai people who made us feel truly welcome. Their kindness and generosity made a big impact on our trip.
In short, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. If you're planning a safari, go with Oldbeast Vacations, ask for Paul as your guide, and your holiday is guaranteed to be unforgettable!

Evans, The Alpha
Our 7-day safari was nothing short of spectacular – an absolute 10 out of 10 experience. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. We were fortunate enough to see the Big Five and so much more, with each day bringing new surprises and breathtaking encounters.
A huge part of what made this trip so special was our guide, Evans. I can honestly say he is the best guide I’ve ever met. Professional, calm, and knowledgeable, he made us feel safe and taken care of at all times. I nicknamed him The Alpha – not only because he’s tall and strong, but also because he seems to command respect everywhere we went. He knows nearly every other guide on the routes, often helping them out and coordinating smoothly. It truly felt like he runs the show.
What impressed me most was how Evans went the extra mile whenever things didn’t go exactly according to plan. His ability to adapt, think ahead, and still make sure we had the best possible experience was outstanding.
If you’re considering a safari, I cannot recommend this enough. Thanks to Evans, our trip was not only unforgettable, but also inspiring. We’ll carry these memories forever!

We had an amazing trip..it was fantastic
Our safari experience with Hekima Safaris in Kenya and Tanzania was truly outstanding. From the very beginning, the team showed excellent communication we received all the details on time, and everything was explained clearly, which gave us great confidence in our journey.
Throughout the trip, all the accommodations we booked were exactly as promised, which made the experience smooth and worry-free. Every lodge and camp met the expected standard, and the organization was excellent from start to finish.
The safari itself was incredible well-planned, full of adventure, and guided with professionalism and care. The wildlife encounters in Kenya and the breathtaking landscapes of Tanzania made it a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
We highly recommend Hekima Safaris for anyone planning a safari in East Africa. Their professionalism, clear communication, and dedication to delivering exactly what they promise make them the perfect choice.

Mind-blowing 🎉
Our 4-day safari with Hekima Safaris was an amazing adventure from start to finish. The team was professional, welcoming, and made us feel at home right away. Each day brought something new—from spotting the Big Five to enjoying breathtaking landscapes in Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro.
The accommodations were comfortable, and spending a night in the middle of the savannah was an experience we’ll never forget. The meals were delicious, and everything was well organized, so we could just relax and enjoy every moment.
We are so grateful to Hekima Safaris for making our trip so special. We will cherish these memories forever and can’t wait to recommend them to friends and family!

Expert tour operator with vast experience and knowledge of the region, real partner in trip planning
We had an amazing experience with Tailormade Africa, real partner in planning our trip - real good balance of fulfilling our wishes while matching their background and knowledge. The camps where we stayed exceeded our expectations and the staff was extremely well prepared and reliable to guide us on game rides as well as entertain us.
Communication with Clyde (Tailormade Africa) was excellent - all our questions were timely answered and issues resolved seamlessly (e.g. my luggage didn't arrive from Amsterdam, Clyde ensured it waits for me in the next camp).
Overall, great value for money.
