Phenomenal trip with all the animal sightings we had hoped for and more
We went with Safari Soles in August 2026. Our driver was Fadhil, and we had a 5.5 day safari, with 1.5 days in northern serengeti, 2 in central serengeti, 1 in ngorongoro crater, and 1 day in tarangire.
Fadhil was the most amazing guide. He was so good at finding animals, always positioned the car perfectly for amazing views and pictures (even when tons of safari cars were also in the way), was very knowledgable about the park and the animals, and was a very kind-hearted individual. When we return to Tanzania, I hope to have him as my guide again.
Safari Soles was a great tour company - when planning our trip, they were very accommodating in creating our custom trip; once we landed in Tanzania, they handled everything from airport to airport; any small issues we faced on the way, they were immediately responsive, considerate, and accommodating.
Overall, we had a 10/10 experience, largerly in part to Fadhil. We would use Fadhil and Safari Soles again and highly recommend to all.

Best experience of our lives with perfect tour operator - Big 5 and more!
We have dreamed about visiting Tanzania for a long time, and we choose Meru Slopes for our Private 8-day tour because of the good reviews that we had read online.
We are very happy with our choice, the trip couldn't be better!!
We started our safari in Lake Manyara NP, where we were able to spot a lot of wildlife (baboons, giraffes, elephants, lions and much more).
Then we continued with Serengeti NP, were we spotted hundreds of animals, inluding a close look to the Big Cats (lions, leopards, cheetas).
At Serengeti we were also able to see the Great Migration, a marvel of nature, including witnessing the famous crossing of river Mara.
Then we proceeded to Ngorongoro Crater, where we saw all the Big 5 in a span of minutes (including 5 Black Rhinos).
The last park that we visited is Tarangire NP, the paradise of elephants and baobab trees.
At the end of the trip we came home with hundreds of photos and videos (including stunning scenes like lioness hunting and river crossing), a lot of touching memories and the desire to come back again.
The trip was very well organized, rooms were comfortable and food was delicious. All the staff was very friendly and welcoming.
A special thanks goes to our driver and safari guide Omari, extremely expert in animals and also a very good company for the trip.
The way he was able to spot all animals was magical.
Also thanks to Almachius for assisting us with all our questions before the trip, with kindness and professionality.
We highly reccomend this trip and tour operator for unforgettable memories, and will sure come back as soon as we can!

Such a pleasure to deal with, on every possible level.
This was our fourth safari (fifth trip) with Compass Odyssey (CO). As usual, Darren and Kate did not disappoint.
Honesty; integrity; reliability; responsiveness; patience; knowledge; expertise; kindness; safety; cost effectiveness; attention to detail… I could go on and on; but, in essence, excellence is what characterizes them, and this is why we keep going back.
This was a particularly tricky safari to organize for various reasons. Nevertheless, CO guided us through the process, ever mindful of our wants and needs, with zero pressure to eventually travel.
You cannot go wrong with CO. We believe they are the best.
This safari was for myself, my adult daughter and one of her friends. The experience was tailored to suit us perfectly. We loved the itinerary, the camps, the guides, and of course the ANIMALS, including GIZA the black leopard!
Describe your dream to CO, and they will make it come true!
Thank you so much, Darren and Kate. We have so many new wonderful memories to daydream about, thanks to you and your team.
You can expect to hear from us for our next adventure in the foreseeable future!

Exceptional & reliable
We did the budget 7 day safari and it was amazing! The customer service from the tour operator was responsive and reliable and the organisation was smooth, seamless and without delays. We had two amazing drivers who were extremly friendly and knowledgable. The camps and hotels were quite lovely for a budget option. All in all it was a great experience and very good value for money. I would definitely recommend!

1day trip Unforgettable Day Safari Thanks to Excellent Guide Charles K
My safari tour was absolutely fantastic, largely thanks to our guide Charles K. He delivered exceptional service throughout the whole day. Charles was extremely knowledgeable about local wildlife, patiently pointing out every animal for us and sharing interesting facts about their habits. He drove attentively, adjusted our route flexibly, and always made sure we got perfect viewing angles.
We were incredibly lucky to spot a wide variety of animals. We saw tall giraffes wandering across the grassland, hippos resting by the lake, and even lions resting in the shade. Besides these highlights, we also came across zebras, antelopes, plus dozens of beautiful bird species with bright feathers.
Thanks to Charles’s sharp eyes and rich experience, we barely missed any key wildlife. It was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari trip.
