Very helpful, friendly and overall fantastic
During planning it was possible to bring in our wishes and expectations which where included.
The welcoming was very warm and kindhearted.
The safari was absolutely exciting, adventurous and we where able to see almost all different animals from nearer than we could’ve imagined.
Our driver Barnabas really made the trip unforgetable with his experience, caring and humorous personality and his effort to give us the possible safari.
We would really recommend Nano Africa Safaris and enjoyed it very much.

Perfect safari experience with excellent service
Our Tanzania safari was absolutely unforgettable, all thanks to this amazing company and our incredible guide, Nickson!
Nickson is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about wildlife. He has an outstanding eye for spotting animals—we saw lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes, and so much more, even the most elusive ones. He is also a safe, careful driver and always made sure we felt comfortable and secure.
The whole trip was well-organized, smooth, and worry-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better experience.
Highly recommend this company and especially guide Nickson to everyone!

The most organised and reliable safari agency
Nkollo Tours & Safari is a local tanzanian agency from Arusha.
Through Safari Booking I had been in touch smoothly to get information on how to book and how to plan a 4 days safari.
Allan and Mercy had been always aside me remotely in Italy for assistance and enquirements. In parricular, Mercy has followed every step of this experience from the very beginning, to the reservation, the on progress safari and to the conclusion. Her availability and patience have helped me a lot from abroad.
Our safari was private, so we had a jeep 4x4 all for us. Emmanuel was our driver/guide and has become one the best encounters in Tanzania: a person that can be very available and accomodating with people, very kind and very respectful. He is an excellent driver. He is friendly and was always prepared to answer to our question inherent animals.
The accomodation for our first night has been “Suricata Boma Lodge”, a very comfortable solution with an amazing view on lake Manyara.
During our second and third night we stayed in “Moyo Tented Camp” that has been our favorite one. Why? Because for two nights in a row you can stay inside Serengeti National Park; then you have a view on the area where dig digs and buffalos (to mention some) like to ruminate during the night and in the early morning; finally the staff of this camp is special and give you the opportunity to have dinner with your guide/driver. I think it is an important moment in which you can know better the person you are travelling with and you can share impressions about the day shared together. For me this aspect has been a plus (along with the quality of the food).
All the safari is very well organised, from the driving time, to the lunch time and the visit you will have in each site or park. We have previously asked to pick us up and drop us off at a specific guesthouse in Arusha along with a “special request” of having vegetarian meals since we do not eat meat or fish.
Again, thanks to Allan, Mercy and Emmanuel this memorable safari experience has been possible.
What you read in the quote you see on the website and then you receive in the quote is fully respected. Every details is planned with attention. So let’s choose Nkollo Tours & Safaris for your next safari experience ;)
Solo birthday safari
I came on safari alone for my birthday and it was a great experience. I booked the 12 day 11 night trip for during valentine’s week. From the time my driver Oswald (32) picked me front the airport it was a vibe. He was professional and offered that I can request him to show me around Arusha, so I requested and agreed to the fee. We visited hookah sports bar, another sports bar for food, saw downtown, and the African art gallery. We visited the local market for souvenirs. Oswald was very attentive during the experience. The next day my guide Pius (40+) picked me up from my hotel and we started our multi day journey. Pius is super professional and very proper. He was very attentive as well. He even went on a hunt for my Coke Zeros because all store seemed to be out of them. This was a luxurious and unforgettable experience.

an incredible safari with our guide "John Mwangi"
he is really great
he explains everything very well with a lot of teaching
but above all he is an outstanding driver and guide
always in pole position to find the animals and allow us magnificent photos and memories.
thanks to him we were able to see the big five more than once (lion leopard elephant black rhino), giraffes, zebras, gazelles, cheetah hunting and devouring its prey, family of lions fighting over their meals... magnificent memories
The Axis Africa agency is reliable and very good in communication from initial contact to support.
thank you to the whole team and to the best guide John Mwangi for sharing his knowledge and this fabulous safari

One of the best travel experiences thanks to the Buyaga crew!
It was a fantastic experience to work with Peter on an itinerary that was more complete than other operators. Peter was super responsive with all questions and is an amazing tour operator, caring for his clients. The hotels were lovely, the driver Eric was a superb guide, and I’m lucky to have just relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful country of Uganda. Peter even arranged the return of my gorilla certificate after I left it in the vehicle. Highly recommended!

Where Adventure Meets Luxury: Buffalo Grass Safaris
Our Tanzania Serengeti safari was truly the best vacation ever.
Emmanuel was everything you could hope for in a guide — professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and so much fun to be around. His expertise made the experience unforgettable. Thanks to him, we were able to see not only the Big Five but also the Small Five — something we never expected and will always cherish.
The entire journey felt thoughtfully curated and special. We visited a Maasai village and had the opportunity to learn about and experience their culture firsthand. One afternoon we enjoyed a private luncheon set up right in the open Serengeti — an absolutely surreal moment. And one evening, we watched the sunset on the beach as wildebeest and zebra roamed nearby while flamingos waded gracefully in the water. It felt like a scene from a documentary.
The accommodations were stunning — beautiful hotels and luxurious tented camps — all paired with delicious food and warm hospitality.
Every detail was perfect. If you're considering a Serengeti safari, this is the way to do it. An unforgettable adventure from start to finish.

Fantastic and reliable
This tour was a fantastic experience. You get to see the equator and the deepest lake in Uganda but most importantly, watch Gorillas. The gorilla trek was a wonderful and amazing experience but also reliable. The trek goes though some beautiful scenery to the rain first but it is also almost guaranteed you’ll see gorillas. This is because there are staff patrolling the rainforest who communicate with your tour guide to tell them where the gorillas are in the forest which is why it’s almost guranteex you’ll see gorillas. You can get quite close up to them in the rainforest and spend an hour admiring them so it is a fantastic experience. The accommodations also have beautiful scenery. So would highly recommend this tour.

Amazing safari!
We had an amazing week in the Tanzania’s parks and extremely happy with our safari. We saw the “big fives” on top of many many other wild animals, not to mention the outstanding landscapes and the very professional and excellent company of our driver and animal tracker. Accomodation was very good outside of the parks as well as in the tent camp, the food was actually good and the people very friendly.
We recommend MERU SLOPES for the excellent organization of our staying during our safari in Tanzania. We definitely recommend a safari in Tanzania!!
