Amazing Safari Experience with Jacmiya Safaris
We had an incredible 7day safari with Jacmiya Safaris. A big thank you to Jael for organizing a seamless trip for my family. Her prompt replies and attentiveness gave us the confidence right from the start.
Our guide, Joshua, truly made the trip extraordinary. He is so friendly and patient all the time. We felt so well cared for every step of the trip. Highly recommend them and especially Joshua as your guide .

Brilliant!
We had the most incredible day on safari at Mikumi National Park, and it honestly exceeded all of our expectations. 🐘🦒🦓🦁
We booked a private safari, which meant we had the buggy completely to ourselves, along with our guide and driver. This made the whole experience feel so personal and relaxed.
Our guides, Ernest and Freddie, were absolutely fantastic. They went above and beyond all day to make sure we had the best possible experience, taking the time to find as many animals as they could and making sure we never felt rushed. Their knowledge, enthusiasm and genuine passion for the wildlife really made the day.
And what a day it was! We saw elephants, giraffes, hippos, zebras, lions and even a cheetah! Seeing these animals in their natural environment was something we’ll never forget.
We also had a lovely food break during the day, which was a welcome chance to sit down, take everything in and enjoy the experience.
But the best review of all came from my 11-year-old daughter, who simply said it was “the best day of my life.” ❤️
We couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience. Thank you so much to Ernest and Freddie for making such a special day even more memorable. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Tanzania! 🌍🐘

FANTASTIC experience from start to finish- the tour guide, Elibarick & operator were incredible.
The tour exceeded every expectation we had. It was an incredible experience from start to finish- that words simply can’t describe.
It wasn’t only my birthday but my partner also proposed to me on this trip. Knowing this the guide & tour operator ensured every detail was perfect. From the very start, singing happy birthday to me upon arrival with a cake to the guide, Elibarick, allowing we saw everything we could have imagined and going above and beyond to provide the most incredible experience.
We would highly recommend and have already recommended Elibarick to everyone we know. He wasn’t only attentive, knowledgeable, and professional but also extremely kind and respectful in every way. He became a friend and we both believe if he wasn’t our tour guide the experience wouldn’t have been as amazing as it has been.
Our tour consisted of flying from Zanzibar to Arusha, then a day in Tarangire National Park, where we saw elephants, zebras, wild beast, giraffe to name a few. Elibarick ensured we saw everything we wished for and told us so many interesting facts about these animals. He took us to all the fantastic view points and even took us to a village on route to our hotel which allowed us to experience the traditional African culture.
We then stayed at Escarpment Lodge where the staff were incredible, making a special birthday somehow even better, to Elibarick organising birthday drinks whilst watching the sunset, to the room birthday decorations and the whole kitchen staff singing traditional songs along with happy birthday with a homemade cake at dinner!
On the second day we visited the Ngorongoro Crater, a testing driving especially in the weather conditions but we were in safe hands with Elibarick. The crater was the most incredible place where we saw the most awesome animals up close! Extremely lucky but also it was through our tour guide having so many links and finding the best places! He also stayed away from the crowd which made our experience even better.
Overall I couldn’t recommend the whole experience to everyone, I would particularly recommend our tour guide and where we stayed. It wouldn't have been the same without the people who made it so incredible.

Wow! Such a great experience with Shenga from start to finish!!
There are thousands of safari company in Tanzania but as I was looking around, I felt the most comfortable with Shenga. Communication was great along with the cost. Kelvin and I kept in communication for a year and he helped me organized a seamless safari experience for my group. The accomodations were top notch and the guides were very knowledgeable. We lucked out with seeing the big 5s, all thanks to the guides. We were also spoiled with hot meals whilst other groups had box lunches. All around wonderful experience!

Great
This was a great safari tour, excellent value, Walter our driver and guide was responsible and knowledgeable on the safari and we saw some amazing animals. I stayed at flair camp which was I was happy with. Masai village (separate from this tour) was an interesting and definitely worthwhile optional add on but just be mindful once there the villagers will try to get you to buy things beyond the entrance fee (I felt put on the spot) but I still think it’s worth the experience.

5 STARS ARE NOT ENOUGH!
Let's start from the beginning. The trip was organized at the last minute, a few days before departure. We had only a few days available and the goal was clear: to see the great migration. In a couple of days, I sent requests to several tour operators, specifying dates, budget, and wishes. Rioba Safaris was the one that immediately understood what we were looking for, and in 24 hours, via WhatsApp, we finalized everything. Four nights: one in Ngorongoro, one in the Central Serengeti, two in the Northern Serengeti (near the Mara River) with a flyout to Arusha from the Kogatende airstrip. Mid-range budget. Private tour, meaning a car and guide just for us. A 30% deposit, with the balance due at the start of the safari in Arusha. In Tanzania, they use a sort of local PayPal if you want to use a credit card. Very convenient and easy, they send you a link where you enter the amount and card details. Instant. And that's the previous part at the beginning. We met at our hotel in Arusha (booked independently) early in the morning, paid the balance, and off we went, the safari began. We were assigned a young guide, Pancras, with whom we immediately connected. Simply fantastic; despite his young age, he proved to be a highly skilled guide, experienced, and knowledgeable. Perhaps also due to a great deal of luck, but in four days we were able to see everything and more, amassing hours of footage and hundreds of photographs. Among the highlights were a lioness with her cubs, a cheetah eating a gazelle, two river crossings, both of enormous size, a leopard hunting an impala, eagles, and so on. In short, it was every inch the best National Geographic documentary. The accommodations we chose were all truly excellent, and even small setbacks like a flat tire proved to be an opportunity to interact and get to know the local communities. In short, I can only thank Rioba Safaris and its guide, Pancras. A truly wonderful choice.
Wildlife experience

A wonderful safari experience with Deeper Safaris!
I had a fantastic experience with Deeper Safaris. Communication throughout was excellent, and they were punctual, professional, and very accommodating.
The safaris to Materuni and Ngorongoro were both pleasant, comfortable, and well organised. Everything felt seamless, which made it easy to simply relax and enjoy the experience.
What I particularly appreciated was that their support went beyond the safari itself. They were genuinely helpful in making sure I had a good overall experience during my time in Tanzania, not just while I was on safari.
I would definitely use Deeper Safaris again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and thoughtful safari company.
