Our First Safari in Tanzania. An Unforgettable Experience!
We chose Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safaris for our very first safari in Tanzania, booking their 7-day package from September 12th to 18th.
Our itinerary allowed us to explore Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. From the very beginning, we received a warm welcome from both the Wakanda team and the accommodations where we stayed.
Our package included two nights in lodge/hotel-style accommodation and three nights camping, two in the Serengeti and one in Ngorongoro. The camping experience turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire trip, especially considering that it was our very first time camping!
Throughout the safari, we were accompanied by Paulo, our guide, together with Sulle, our personal cook.
Paulo was simply outstanding. He guided us more like a friend welcoming us into his own home than just a tour guide, making us feel comfortable from day one and helping us appreciate every moment even more. He shared his knowledge and passion for wildlife, telling us interesting facts about all kinds of animals, including lesser-known species that often receive less attention than the famous Big Five.
One of the things we appreciated most was his approach to the safari: always taking our time, without rushing from one sighting to another just to tick off as many animals as possible. He always gave us the opportunity to observe, enjoy every moment and, of course, take photographs at our own pace. He was also incredibly attentive when positioning the vehicle, always looking for the best angles and viewpoints to help us capture the animals in the best possible way.
The safari vehicle was also extremely comfortable and spacious, allowing us to bring all our luggage along without any problems. Thanks to Paulo's great company and friendly personality, even the longer drives never felt tiring or boring.
A special mention also goes to Sulle, who treated us to delicious traditional Tanzanian meals every day. The food was always varied, plentiful and genuinely excellent. We really enjoyed every meal, and his presence was another wonderful part of the experience.
Camping was a real revelation! Sleeping in the heart of the savannah, far away from everything, surrounded by the wilderness and beneath an incredible star-filled sky, gave us a unique feeling of connection with nature that is difficult to put into words.
The whole trip went far beyond our expectations, thanks to the professionalism and kindness of the entire team, as well as the good fortune of encountering an incredible number of animals, including some rather rare and difficult-to-spot species.
Our only small regret was not being able to reach the northern part of the Serengeti to witness the Great Migration, as the distances would have been too great given the time available. But, after all, we now have the perfect excuse to come back to Tanzania!
A huge thank you to the entire Serengeti Wakanda Tours & Safaris team and, above all, to Paulo and Sulle, who helped make this journey such a special experience that we will always carry with us.
Asante sana!

Amazing guide Peter kapino, really knowledgeable and fun
The trip was really well organized and fun, our guide Peter kapino was amazing! He was very knowledgeable about the animals and was always doing his best to get us to see all the animals. Peter kapino Would go out of his way to find the animals and get us in the best position. Thanks to him we were able to see the big 5 along with numerous other animals. Peter kapino Really made the trip worth it!

So supportive and understanding. Knowledgeable and kind throughout the experience
Climbing Mount Kenya was one of the best experiences of my life, Daniel and the guides were a huge part of what made it so special. Their warmth, patience, and encouragement made the journey feel personal, and I’m deeply grateful for the people I got to share it with. The mountain itself was breathtaking, but it’s the connection, laughter, and moments along the way that I’ll carry with me most. Being from Kenya, experiencing this part of home meant so much to me. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure—I couldn’t have asked for a better team to experience it with.

They were very helpful and professional!
The tour was amazing, it was a long day but absolutely worth it! We were picked up at 1am from our apartment and arrived around 7am at the Gorilla Office to be welcomed by some entertaining dancing. The Gorilla Trek was out if this works, rules were explained, we felt very safe and to get up as close as we did was an unforgettable experience. The only negative side was whilst provided lunch it was quite late at around 3pm where we were starving and the food wasn’t particularly great. If we had have know we wouldn’t eat until that late we might have bought a packed lunch. However overall an amazing trip and would definitely do it again!

We'll never forget the safari we went on with you Best regards, Brigitte and Rico
The two guides were very friendly and knowledgeable, and they told us a lot about the animals and life in Tanzania.
The safari was well planned, and our preferences regarding the lodges were taken into account.
I highly recommend Great DAY Safaris to everyone.

You won't regret choosing Nafika!
We did the 8 days Northern Circuit because we were looking for a less crowded route with good acclimatization. From the moment we met the team at the airport we felt very well looked after. The people at Nafika are really what made this trip so special. You get the feeling that they enjoy being part of Nafika and the feeling is infectious. Every little details was thought about, from the food, to the tents, the toilets and looking after your wellbeing. We couldn't recommend these guys enough. And if you are wondering why compared with other tour operators their fees are better value, is because you are not paying a local company only and not an intermediary. The service we can promise is just as good if not better!!! You won't regret choosing Nafika. And if you get Mr. Delicious for your chef (David) you are in for a treat!

Ruzdani was so helpful and accomodating. He made sure everyone was comfortable during the trip. We were so lucky we got to see Rhinos and Buffalos on a rest stop even before we got to the hotel.

Excellent service from booking through to the safari with Steve, who was a standout guide
Booking with Chesi was so easy and no question went unanswered more than 5 minutes. Our driver/guide Steve was terrific. He gave us the absolute maximum time with the animals and we saw them all. Big 5 on first afternoon, then so many on the full day safari. Would book this safari again without hesitation
