Without a shadow of a doubt, the trip of a lifetime
5/5

We (a group of three) went on the 6-day Private Safari at the end of May 2026, right before the peak season began. Everything was well organized, and other than liaising with Meektrails before the start of the trip, we barely had to lift a finger.

The safari got started before we even arrived at the first destination. The drive from Nairobi to Amboseli already offered a glimpse of some of the wildlife we’d be seeing. Zebras, giraffes, and ostriches could be seen right off the highway. Our guide, Robin, had extensive knowledge of not just the animals, but also all the areas we drove through on the way.

It only got better from there.

Each excursion offered a unique experience - even if it was a destination we’d been to already. We watched the sun set over Mt. Kilimanjaro as herds of elephants made their way home for the evening, and came back the next morning to find dazzles of zebras and journeys of giraffes grazing on the vegetation. Each park and reserve offered different wildlife, and we were constantly seeing and learning new things. Across Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Nakuru, and Maasai Mara we were introduced to beautiful birds, incredible beasts, and outstanding locals.

What really brought the whole trip together was Robin. A good tour guide is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate. Robin was all of that and more. For the entire 6 days we were together, he not only taught us about animals (can you tell the difference between a Thomson’s gazelle and a Grant’s gazelle?) and Kenya, but also taught us some Swahili and was eager to learn some Estonian. He’s a master of maneuvering the truck and positioning it in the best possible place for photos. But most importantly, he’s just a fantastic person. Three of us travelled to Kenya, but it felt like four friends on the most scenic road trip imaginable.

If you’re even considering taking a trip to Kenya, do yourself a favor and go. Book with Meektrails, ask for Robin.

Asante sana to Meektrails, and suur aitäh to Robin!

5/5

Excellent safari, was thoroughly enjoyed, covering 2 different national park full day safari to Mikumi and Narrere as well as Masai tour, walking tour and boat safari, saw an amazing diversity of wildlife including 4 of the big 5 available to be seen there. Our tour guide Kapande made this 5 day safari outstanding, having great knowledge and ability to answer any questions about wildlife asked. I would thoroughly recommend this company for anyone planning a safari in tanzania.

Omar & Alex Were INCREDIBLE Guides!
5/5

The company I booked with contracted with Travel Africa so we were SUPER fortunate!

My first day of the 4-day safari was with Omar and his son, Alex.
We saw a cheetah, 3 leopards, a lion, impala, gazelle, zebras, giraffes, elephants, a monitor lizard, a tortoise, dik-diks, and more!
More than just spotting these majestic creatures, Omar and made sure we were usually the only jeep present and waited til we had our own time with the animals before calling others over to witness what we got to.
Because Omar is so passionate about his job and has been doing it for so many years, he seemed to have a sixth sense about where to find the animals, and how to get up close without invading their space.
Together, Omar and Alex made the perfect duo in giving us a front row seat to nature in action and the timing of so many of our spottings were absolutely divine - like pulling around to watch the retreating (from the entourage of jeeps) lion walking through the tall grass directly towards us! Moments like this seemed to happen all day and it was pure magic <3

Our safari wouldn't have been the same without Omar guiding the way and Alex driving us safely around Tarangire. Forever grateful for such an incredible experience with the most wonderful guides!
Thank you!!!

best of all time
5/5

Had an amazing experience with Sandpiper safaris This was our first safari & their sales specialist Abouh was very helpful & understanding. He tailored our package to our needs, gave us reasonable quotes & was very patient in every aspect of safari decision making. Their process is very transparent & one gets proper documentation after every phase. Guest experience team was equally great. & was very proactive to respond to our queries. Lastly & most important our guide Jovin was absolutely great. He had knack for details, ensured we are well taken care of, explained us everything in detail & made our experience just wow !!

Thanks team, you guys were GREAT ! 😊

Best and affordable tour operator in Tanzania
5/5

Our 5-day luxury fly-in safari from Zanzibar exceeded every expectation and became one of the most memorable travel experiences we have ever had.
From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized by Serengeti Wildlife Safaris. The flights, transfers, game drives, accommodations, and personalized service were seamless, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the incredible beauty of Tanzania.
The accommodations were exceptional. Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti offered world-class luxury, breathtaking views, and outstanding hospitality. Our stay at Meliá Ngorongoro was equally impressive, with stunning surroundings, elegant rooms, and excellent service. We also enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and comfort of The Retreat at Ngorongoro, which provided the perfect setting to unwind after exciting safari adventures.
The wildlife viewing was simply spectacular. We witnessed an incredible variety of animals in their natural habitat and enjoyed expertly guided game drives that brought us closer to Tanzania's remarkable wildlife and landscapes. Every day offered new and unforgettable experiences.
A special thank you goes to our guide, whose knowledge, professionalism, and passion for wildlife made the safari even more enjoyable. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring we had the best possible experience truly stood out.
We highly recommend Serengeti Wildlife Safaris to anyone seeking a luxury safari experience in Tanzania. Their professionalism, excellent communication, and dedication to customer satisfaction were outstanding from start to finish.
If you are looking for a perfectly organized luxury safari filled with amazing wildlife, exceptional accommodations, and unforgettable memories, Serengeti Wildlife Safaris is the company to choose. We cannot wait to return for another adventure!
