Ver professional and comfortable experience
We took the 7 days Safari from Kenia to Tanzania (Lake Nakuru, Masaai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro). We booked the mid-range comfortable level and we were two women. We found the experience highly professional, very comfortable and valuable. In Kenia our driver was Kombo. He was quite knowledgable about the animals, the parks, the roads and of course, his culture. We had a lot of fun with him and we think he was extremely professional and helpful. He helped us claiming back some money that was extra charged for us in an optional activity. Kombo was super careful by having the car very clean and with enough gas every morning before starting our ride. He made sure that we had fresh drinks every day and took over the details of the trip. In Tanzania our driver was Elia. Also quite knowledgable, kind and professional. The lodges that we stayed in were really comfortable and nice. The food was good, we never had problems with its quality and we didnt really nee to bring extra snacks. Everyone was kind to us and we cannot recommend enough this company. We made contact with them through this website and then Alex contacted us with a quote via Email. We paid a part of it in advance via bank transfer and when we arrived to Nairobi (the starting point), we paid the rest. Advice: Bring cash, because if you pay via the link that they provide, it charges you an extra fee.

Great daytrip to Tarangire National Park
On Friday 10th of October I booked an impulse daytrip from Mto wa Mbu to Tarangire National Park which is about 110 kilometers. On Sunday morning 12th half past seven the fourwheeldrive with guide Edward on the wheel was ready to pick us up from our lodge. I invited two young people from Mto to come with me to the park. Edward was very friendly and he explained a lot to the youngsters in Kiswahili and to me in English. His timeing was very good, we were at the picknick before everybody was there and we left when it became very busy. Young Baraka was very happy that he could sit in the frontseat, with Edward taking really good care of him. Car was fine and we had no problems. All in all we had a beautiful day with a lot of sightings.

Great tour and great service
We selected Serengeti Smile because it was very fast in making all the different quotes we asked to decide what to do in our safari. Jeremiah was always very helpful and responsive, also when we had questions after the booking (like with the online Visa request). He also helped us organize a orphanage visit in Arusha.
The lodges and camp site selected were all great.
Our tour guide John was a great driver and explained us everything when we had question.

Very good
I booked my safari two days in advance, and the staff promptly arranged a seat for me. They even picked me up at the Arusha airport and took me to my hotel. On the day the tour ended, they even walked me to the bus station, ensuring smooth for my next trip. The entire safari was excellent. The driver was attentive, focused on driving and spotting wildlife, frequently communicating with his colleagues via walkie-talkie about animal activity and providing us with basic information about the animals. They also provided excellent food and accommodation.

Seamless experience! Friendly guides
Booked my tour via GetYourGuide and the whole booking experience was very easy. Thomas was in touch the day before to ensure all was ok and let me know when he would be collecting me. He was informative and very professional. The safari tour in Pilanesberg was also great. Thabo was our guide and he was very knowledgeable but not overbearing. We were lucky enough to see a leopard and an incredible sighting of a big herd of elephants too. Would highly recommend

Efficient, up to the task, goes over and beyond, caring and professional at the same time
Catherine communicated with us clearly and was more than helpful throughout the whole process, to finally settling on the hotel and making payments, everything was transparent and smooth. Alistar is reliable, and you do get value for money.

Incredibly professional, personable, and knowledgeable
My best friend and I booked a private safari and we have had the most amazing experience with Top Selected Tours and with John. We saw ALL of the big 5 thanks to him!!! At John’s recommendation, we changed our original itinerary of Northern Serengeti to stay within the central Serengeti instead, as earlier than expected rains meant animals had already started moving south again. Day 1 and we saw 4 of the Big 5 (lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo) plus some amazing giant birds (secretary birds, vultures, ostriches) as well as giraffes, warthogs, jackals, hippos…. and a whole family of cheetahs!!! Plus more animals that I can’t even list… And we saw an incredible total of THIRTY ONE (31!) LIONS on our safari!!! And a lion hunt!!! Can’t thank John enough for his professionalism and insight, he always knew where to be to see the animals and where to position the car to have a front row view while staying incredibly respectful of the wildlife. You can tell he has a real passion for his work, for the wildlife, and for the Serengeti. We felt incredibly safe and cared for as two young women traveling. I would never want to safari with anyone else.

5 day (Tarengire + Serengeti) safari experience is cool.
Migo African Safaris team welcomed us very warmly. When we arrived They were already ready to receive us.
We luckily got chance for 5 day safari in Tanzania. We explored the famous Serengeti National Park and Tarengire National Park. We started our safari at Tarengire and it was stolen in our heart. We see huge elephants. Our guide was superb & joked that Tarangire’s elephants were philosophers because they moved so calmly. Lastly in Serengeti, awesome views. We had seen many animals. We waited nearly an hour before a family of lions finally appeared near a waterhole. It was worth every minute. It was our first and dream safari. Appreciate Migo African.
