Passionate about animals and our experience
The trip of a lifetime made so special because of Serengeti Clarity, Frank and our guide, Hardson!! I will be back year after year and will use Serengeti Clarity and request Hardson!
They made a dream come true. We started planning the trip a month before our arrival, which I thought would never be possible. Traditionally, people plan a safari months and months out, but this is the sign you need to request a quote and see if you can make it happen! Frank responded immediately to my quote request and sent over a beautifully proposed itinerary that aligned with my comfort level.
My friend and I wanted some level of luxury while keeping budget in mind. You have a say in your trip planning with Frank. To be honest, his first proposed was perfect and he turned it around within 24 hours. If you want nicer accommodations, just ask and he will make happen. If you want to stay in a budget, just ask and he will make happen. There is nothing he won’t consider and he will be quick to respond.
Our guide, Hardson, was perfect for our trip. He is so nice and knowledgeable and you can feel through your trip that he is doing what he loves. He wants to make the trip special for you. Thinking about all the little things. Setting up lunch with scenic views. He saw my friend and I liked to have a few beers and wine on each day and it was always in the cooler. He was always checking in with us. And, most importantly, we got to know each other as people on this trip.
The moment that was the most special for me was when we stumbled on a Caracal. His eyes lit up and he got so excited. He said he has only seen it 3 times in his 9 years. You could feel his excitement along with ours. It just goes to show that the Serengeti is a special place that keeps on giving and the passion from our guide Hardson made our experience truly magical.
I will be coming back to the Serengeti and will be going with Serengeti Clarity and requesting my new friend, Hardson.
The only thing I would have done differently, but I didn’t have the time, is to stay in Central Serengeti a couple more days. But, I’ll be sure to do that next time.

Agnes from Mercy Africa was very responsive and helpful, made the trip and our transfers very easy!
Agnes and the team of Mercy Africa has been very responsive and helpful during booking stage and the trip itself. My partner and I did the 5-day Safari Experience with comfortable accomodations, which were followed as is on the itinerary sent to us, very organized. Serengeti was surreal and we had a great overall experience. Thanks to our host agency, Mercy Africa.

Best Safari Ever
We could not ask for a better experience in Kenya. Our guide Dedan was incredible. We loved that while other tour guides were not obeying the rules while out on Safari, our guide was showing respect to the animals and the environment which we really appreciated (especially when seeing how a lioness and her cubs were getting so upset with other tour operators constantly blocking her path). He was courteous and considerate the entire time. You could not ask for a more knowledgeable person to go on a safari with. If you are looking at booking a safari then I would highly recommend this company and please ask for Dedan to be your guide - you will not get better!!! Thank you Dedan and the entire team for making our safari so enjoyable.

Hands Down The Best Experience and Travel Agency
Issa is one of the greatest agents anyone could ask for! He was a fabulous agent that was communicative, responsive and above all transparent. Our safari trip was exceptional and would highly recommend everyone to use Destiny Explorers. They are Tanzanian owned, unlike many of the other companies out there, so they know the best spots for safari, negotiate the best prices and secure the best accommodations.
Also, your driver is arguable one of the most important parts of your trip. When you pick Destiny Explorers, you must ask for Omary. He is not only kind and caring, but he is so knowledgeable and intelligent. Omary helped us find every animal numerous times! We saw the Great Migration, saw the crossing of the Mara (it’s much rarer and harder to find than you think, and most don’t get to see it) saw leopards numerous times, more lions than we can count to include HUGE males and baby cub’s nursing, rhino and other animals we didn’t even know were in the Serengeti. Destiny Explorers and Omary will always be our top recommendation for anyone looking at coming to Tanzania.

Responsive and helpful
We visited Tanzania and had a wonderful time. From start to end all communication, logistics, travel arrangements, places where we stay, the food & guide was extremely good!
We will definitely recommend eXplore Plus !

this tourist agent is not to be trusted
i booked a 14days tour with Dosasha, this cost me nearly 5000USD, and the tour start very badly, as i and other 2 family can not have our land cruiser to kick off the tour from the first day, just because of Dosasha fail to pay the driver. they indeed manage to find car to take us to Masai Mara, but we have been told by the hotel that Dosasha have not paid them also. when we transport from Masai Mara to Nakuru, Dosasha send us a driver who is not qualified to drive us with a car which has a damaged car brake. and the driver can not drive safely with damage windscreen wiper. he also has not been paid by Dosasha, so he can not have enough diesel, we have to pay the fuel for him. he also do not know the road to Nakuru, and nearly have accident on the road because of the terrible road condition. when we finally finish the terrify journey to Nakuru, Dosasha also fail to pay the national park fee, so we can not enter and go to our hotel, we have been stranded in front of the national park gate for 3hours. when we finally have the agreement with the entrance staff we will pay the national park fee tomorrow when the POS machine can be used, and go to check in the hotel, we have been told Dosasha fail to pay them, and we have to pay by ourself to check out. after all of these drama, we give up with Dosasha, and ask for refund. they also promise to refund. but again, they fail to follow the promise to refund for 4times up to now, and no refund recieved.

Excellent
Our tour guide Joseph Kabiru was amazing!! The first day of safari we saw a lion, lionesses, an elephant up close, and so much more!
The second day of safari we saw the big 5! We allowed Joseph to do his job and lead us to amazing sightings and he went above and beyond our expectations. I am sure if it wasn’t for Joseph we may not have had such a special experience. Lake Nakuru was also very cool with rhinoceros, giraffes, buffalos, baboons, more lioness and birds!
Joseph also gave us recommendations on things to do in Nairobi. The tents and staff at Kilima went above and beyond our expectations as well, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our hope is that we can come back within the next few years and have Joseph as our tour guide again. He truly is special and we miss him already.

Very very good and kind person
This is our first time in Africa and this experience. Asante Bibi gave us something unique... it made us experience the true essence of African culture. It was a unique safari. The guides showed us what it's like to experience Africa both on foot and by jeep. They were expert and ready to share any anecdote about the place. Everyone was very friendly and available to help with anything. I recommend this experience to everyone. We will definitely return as soon as we have the chance, and we will leave this place with tears in our eyes but with a warmer heart.
