Extremely attentive and responsive service
We started planning our 10-day Tanzanian Safari around 18-months out. So after comparing lots of different tour operators, we selected Destiny Explorers.
We sent an initial enquiry to 3 different companies and the reply from Issa from Destiny Explorers was received first and was by far the most thorough.
After a couple more emails back and forth we started planning our custom itinerary. Issa was great with suggestions and always replied with updates or changes very quickly.
We felt very happy with our decision throughout the booking and payment process, but of course the most important part would be the tour itself.
Thankfully, the tour far exceeded our expectations. Tarimo was our guide and he knows Tanzania's Safari parks backwards. He get a hot tip about where something might be happening or even just a hunch based on past experience about where something could happen and 9 times out of 10 he delivered.
You'll read lots about how rough the roads are on the Safari trail and I can confirm that they are probably rougher than you could imagine, so you are going to want a smooth, considerate driver and Tarimo is both of these.
The accomodation that Issa selected throughout the tour was all of a high standard and the food was always tidy and plentiful.
It also goes without saying that the Wildlife experience was incredible. Multiple close encounters with lions and elephants and we also spotted 5 leopards and 4 rhinos on the tour. These are 2 of the toughest animals to spot, so 1 or 2 is usually good going but Tarimo kept putting us in the right place at the right time.
Overall, we were extremely happy with our decision to use Destiny Explorers and feel it was the perfect option for us.
We would highly recommend contacting Issa for a chat.

Special thanks to our amazing safari guide Dennis! He is kind and highly experienced,
Special thanks to our amazing safari guide Dennis! He is kind and highly experienced, and helped us see the Big Five. He shared lots of detailed knowledge about African wildlife. When one of our friends lost headphones at the hotel, Dennis went out of his way to retrieve them for us — we are so thankful.
Janet was equally great, very attentive to all our requests. We are totally satisfied with our trip and hope to meet you both again!

An exceptional African safari with a warm, knowledgeable team, great experience!
An Excellent African Safari Experience! Our family had a wonderful time on this tour. We came away genuinely grateful for the experience and left our 10 day Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana tour feeling very happy and recharged.
Tatenda organised and planned the entire trip, and was our main point of contact throughout. His coordination and attention to detail made a real difference. The guides in the field were also exceptional. Brown, Delphista, Figo, Dintle, and Vusi were knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely caring. They made us feel welcomed and looked after throughout, which elevated the entire experience.
The landscapes were stunning. We loved Chobe and seeing all the elephants, and the scenic flight over the Okavango Delta was the highlight of our trip. Every moment exploring these incredible places was special. The tour coordination was excellent. The itinerary was well-planned, logistics ran smoothly, and communication via WhatsApp was quick and responsive. We felt genuinely taken care of from start to finish.
If you're looking for a well-organised African safari with a team that genuinely cares about making your experience special, this is an excellent choice.

Amazing Experience - Okindo was a Champ!!!
It was an amazing experience especially as I travelled with my entire family - the boys love the experience.
Okindo was a super star, he was patient and loving around the kids, that help with the stress of travel with 3 young boys 😊.
As regards cost, I will advice you come along with USD cash for the agency so as to avoid the crazy bank charge of 2.5% and exchange different, that alone cost me more than $500 - crazily annoying - please speak to faith about this to get a better option, I didn't in my case.

Panorama View tour
Had a great day following the panorama route with Rudzani. Great guy, very knowledgable and a great sense of humor. After 2 days of safari we left the hotel around 7 am, leaving Hazyview and going to Johannesburg. We visited 4 sites, God's window, Lisbon Falls, Bourke potholes and three Rondavels. Although the weather wasn't on our side and not everything had a good view because of the fog we managed to make a great day out of it. Thanks Rudzani, I had a wonderful experience!
