Amazing Safari! 100% Fantastic
We booked a 6-day safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti in Northern Tanzania, and it was an incredible experience. Amos, the director of Migration Venture Africa, gave us the freedom to customize the tour according to our needs and budget. We spent one night at the Better Inn in Moshi, Ngorongoro Inn in Karatu, and Serengeti Wildebeest Camp in Serengeti, all of which were amazing accommodations. They were clean, provided excellent meals, and had comfortable rooms that we enjoyed sleeping in. The safari took us through forests, savanna grasslands, and bush, including rivers, lakes, and marshes, but it was the wildlife that made it all so fascinating. We had an amazing guide, Temba, who was the reason we had so much fun on this trip. He turned it into an incredible adventure, knowing all the routes and places that were likely to be teeming with wildlife, plus he had excellent eyesight. He was the one who spotted the animals most of the time. We are in total awe of our guide and the experience was simply amazing.

Outstanding Safari Experience
We had an unforgettable 4-day safari visiting Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. From the very beginning, the office was extremely responsive and attentive, making the organization smooth and stress-free. Our guide, Ombeni, was truly outstanding – very knowledgeable, professional, and always available to fully satisfy our wishes throughout the trip. Thanks to his experience and dedication, we were able to enjoy every moment and make the most of this incredible adventure. We highly recommend this safari operator for anyone looking for a well-organized and memorable experience in Tanzania!

Amazing
Agency
The agency was very available, always attentive and truly listened to our requests. They designed an itinerary perfectly adapted to our wishes while respecting our budget. All the necessary information was shared with us beforehand, and during the safari, the itinerary was followed to the letter. A promise kept!
Safari quality
The vehicle was very comfortable: having a mini-fridge on board was a real plus, as well as the presence of Wi-Fi. We also appreciated the thoughtful details such as the cushion and blanket provided.
The hotels were chosen with great care. Their locations, the quality of the welcome, and the comfort all exceeded our expectations.
As for the food, it was excellent throughout the safari: generous, varied, and always delicious. We never lacked anything.
The guide – Bashir
Bashir was perfect from start to finish. An experienced, cheerful, professional, and respectful guide, he truly made our journey unforgettable. As two young women, we felt completely safe with him by our side: his seriousness and attentiveness reassured us at every moment.
He shared with us his extensive knowledge of the savannah’s wildlife, and during the search for big cats, his commitment and determination truly impressed us. Special mention also for his great taste in music, which brought a wonderful atmosphere to our drives.
This safari will remain an unforgettable experience thanks to Serengeti Wakanda Tours and Safaris, and especially to Bashir, who made this adventure even more exceptional.

Professional, and excellent organisation
I cannot speak highly enough of our guide Goodluck, everything from the first moment was perfectly organised. I dont know how he was able to drive, give information and spot animals at the same time. He is an experienced driver and always made sure we got the best spot when seeing animals. He was always on time, the jeep was always spotless clean and we had no issues during the tour. Goodluck is very knowledgeable of animals, especially birds, and we learnt a lot from him. We were a group of 13, and extremely happy with the way the tour went. Cannot recommend these guys enough.

The best tour operator-Just book them!
From pre-planning to booking to arrival and start to finish, we could not have been more pleased with African Big Cats Safaris. My family of 5 traveled for a one week private safari through the Serengeti, the Ngorogoro Crater, Tarangire and Arusha National Park at the end for a hike, and the level of attention and detail and adventure was simply beyond our expectations. I cannot recommend this tour operator enough. Based in Tanzania they are aware of and plan for all the details that make a safari vacation memorable. So many people made our trip memorable, but special shout outs to Upendo who first fielded our inquiry, Naomi who arranged our trip, Emmanuel who was the site manager and last but not least, our spectacular and knowledgeable guide Gabriel. His fund of knowledge about the animals, the environment, Tanzania and general easy going company were unmatched. We felt very lucky to be matched with him and his expertise. THere are so many tour operators in Tanzania nowadays (tourism has become the biggest industry). I cannot endorse African Big Cats enough-they can customize to your needs and budget and preferences very easily. If you are thinking of Tanzania (which I highly recommend), do not hesitate to choose African Big Cats!

Impeccable organization and coordination of the safari.
When planning a trip to Kenya, I chose Leopard Orchid Safaris out of 15 similar operators. Michael, the manager, offered us an ideal program at a really competitive price. During our month of communication before booking, he patiently, attentively and promptly answered all our questions and changes. He also personally met us at the airport. Even after the end of the Safari, Michael continued to stay in touch and helped us quickly solve the problem with moving around Kenya.
Our Game-driver on the safari Lawrence is a great professional who loves his job. In just 1.5 days in Masai Mara, he showed us all the animals that we really wanted to see, some moments were simply magical (for example, an elephant that appeared out of nowhere, 10 minutes after we asked Lawrence about elephants). Lawrence finally and irrevocably made us fall in love not only with the Safari but with Kenya in general.
In general, the entire Leopard Orchid Safaris team (we managed to meet other employees + the owners) are excellent professionals who are "on fire" with their work, adore their country and animals. And these, I believe, are the best conditions for an ideal Safari.
Thank you, Leopard Orchid Safaris, for an exceptional experience that words can’t fully capture. Looking forward to returning next year!

Great experience, very caring about us !
We had a great experience with this agency. I had a lot of support from them to answer any questions including visa and insurance questions. Dennis was very responsive and caring to make our experience the best possible.
I loved everything about it, from the communication, the support, the respect during the travel and the kindness they all offered before, during and after the trip
