Extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable
We had a fantastic time! 2 adults 3 children aged 16,14 and 8. What an amazing experience! We flew from Zanzibar to Arusha and picked up at the airport by our friendly tour guide James. Paul at Serengeti green was really helpful in customizing our trip. We stayed 2 nights at high view hotel which was lovely, stunning views and delicious food. We took in 3 different parks in 3 days, Tarangire National park, Ngorangora crater and lake Manyara national park. James our tour guide was so knowledgeable on all the parks and animals and was a pleasure to spend the 3 days with. We got extremely close to elephants, monkeys and zebra. We did see lions but at a distance. I believe lion and cheetah sightings are more common in the larger park of Serengeti but the drive and stay is longer so just didn’t suit our family. Really enjoyed the trip and would highly recommend Serengeti green.

UNIQUE AND DREAMY
We met Serengeti Smile Smile through Safaribooking.
We contacted them by email, and they immediately contacted us via WhatsApp.
The person who contacted us was Jonyo, and I can't say enough good things about him. A ten in every way: kindness, efficiency, options presented, quick responses, and much more.
Once we finalized the safari, he told us we could make a deposit by bank transfer or credit card.
We opted to make a deposit and another a few days before the trip.
Everything was perfect.
On the agreed day, our Spanish-speaking guide, Daniel, and our driver, Yasini, picked us up from our hotel.
We spent six days on safari, exploring Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Lake Easy, and Lake Manyara.
The experience was spectacular thanks to the professionalism of both the guide and the driver, who went above and beyond to ensure we saw the Big 5 and all kinds of animals.
An experience that far exceeded our expectations, and one I highly recommend.
Choosing Serengeti Smile was a great choice, and I highly recommend it.

Every thing taken care of! 9-Day Majestic Vic Falls and Botswana Wildlife Safari
This was our first safari for my husband and me - we did not know what to expect. When we looked at this company, it was reassuring to see that everything was included (except alcoholic beverages and tips for guides). We really felt we got a great value for the cost of the trip. Archie was great at getting back to us when we had a change of dates and very patient with payment - there were some problems with the payment links, but all was eventually resolved before the trip.
This was a wonderful, memorable trip! Muza was our guide and made us all feel welcome and treated as "family". This was important, because we spent a lot of time together! The accommodations were great, we wished we could spend more time at some where we were only there for one night - but really the trip is about getting out and seeing sights and animals, for which we were not disappointed. As we were travelling in the dry season - July/August, mosquitos were very few and not really a concern.
The safari was a great combination of walking, boat and game drives - all different ways to see animals from different perspectives. We had local guides at each of the places we stopped at who were all very knowledgeable in finding animals and giving information about them. Muza was awesome in making the best use of our time - getting us where we needed to be at the right time and helping facilitate meal times when they could be chosen in advance, so they were there when we returned from our outings. The meals were great and more than enough. We bought a few snacks at a store near one of the lodges, but really didn't need them. The van was comfortable, water was provided every day, and the travel between points were really also "game drives" and Muza stopped for us to view and take pictures of anything we wanted to see. He was patient, kind and clear with instructions about where and when to meet and what we were doing. We saw 4 of the 5 "Big
Five" on this trip (Rhinos populations are low in Botswana - best seen at a sanctuary), but we also saw impalas, wildebeest, giraffes, zebras, hippos, baboons and monkeys, and many birds.
We also got a chance to visit with people living in a traditional village, which really helped us understand what we were seeing when we passed through other villages. This, Chobe National Park and the Okavango Delta camping via Mokoro, were all highlights of the trip.
Lastly, we started our trip at a conference in Livingstone, Zambia, where we flew in and out of. This complicated things because we had to cross over the border to Zimbabwe at the start of the trip and then cross back from Botswana to Zimbabwe to Zambia the last morning of the trip. Muza scheduled this perfectly so that we made the crossings and got to the airport in plenty of time to make our flight. All of the border crossings were not difficult, but all depended on how busy they were, which is not always easy to predict.
Overall, we felt welcomed and well cared for on our first safari and are ready to return! Thank you to the folks at Africa Uncovered Safaris!

An Experience of a Lifetime
I joined the 7-Day Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Camping Safari, and as my very first safari experience, I have no regrets choosing Meru Slopes Safari and Tours. Jerome, the sales manager, was very accommodating and took care of everything from our arrival to our departure in Arusha. He personally welcomed us and ensured that we felt comfortable throughout.
Our safari guide and driver, Paul, went above and beyond to make sure we had the best views and saw the animals we wished to see—even going to extra lengths to make it happen. He was very warm, knowledgeable, and always ready to explain anything we wanted to know about the wildlife. Witnessing the Great Migration was the highlight of the trip—an unforgettable experience that I had only ever seen on social media, and I couldn’t believe I was watching it with my own eyes.
Our cook, Rashid, prepared delicious, warm meals and always greeted us with a smile. We were truly grateful for his kindness and hospitality.
Overall, it was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and I highly recommend Meru Slopes Safari and Tours.

A once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
This tour through Uganda wasn’t just a holiday — it was a journey straight into the heart of Africa. Tracking gorillas and chimps in the wild was already a dream come true, but the experience went far beyond wildlife. We danced shoulder to shoulder with local villagers, tasted fresh mango straight off the tree — pill and all — and scoured the forests for dazzling birds, building a priceless collection of sightings.
It was the first time I felt I was seeing real Africa, raw and beautiful, life beating to its own drum. And the cherry on top of this incredible cake? A heartfelt Sarah project with children who truly got their lucky lottery ticket — watching their faces light up was worth more than gold.
This was not just a tour, it was an eye-opening adventure, packed to the brim with unforgettable moments. I came home with my heart full, my soul richer, and my camera loaded with memories I’ll treasure forever.

Amazing safari experience
For our family, Tall Masai Safari offered an amazing safari experience. From start to finish, they made us feel special and tailored the trip to our needs. The highlights were the close encounters with elephants and cheetahs. The staff members were professional, friendly, and sincerely excited about their work. We are looking forward to going on another trip with them.

Exceptional Safari with Vibrant — Andrew Went the Extra Mile
We booked Vibrant for a chimpanzee and gorilla trek and Andrew was our driver-guide. From day one he was up to every task. He drove 6+ hours most days with no complaints and kept a calm upbeat attitude. We saw chimpanzees and mountain gorillas and both experiences were amazing.
For the last leg we chose to split Bwindi to Entebbe over two days to ease the drive, yet Andrew was ready to do a 10+ hour push if needed. He is young, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile for his guests.
Overall a very positive trip. We highly recommend Vibrant and will ask for Andrew again for future visits from friends and family. Thank you, Andrew!

Unbelievable, culture and wildlife everywhere
We booked a 14 day safari hoping to see the great migration, and some of the wildlife. Our guide, who was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, their habitats and migration patterns, knew exactly where to take us to get the most out of our safari. We saw the great migration twice, and the big 5 multiple times. This was truly a once in a lifetime trip. I look at the pictures I took, and I still can't believe I saw all these beautiful animals.
