Reliable, personal and flexible: Soles turns every safari into an unforgettable experiencE
5/5

From the Serengeti to the Stars — An Unforgettable Safari

Our Tanzanian safari with Soles Tours was an extraordinary experience, not only because of the places and wildlife we encountered, but above all because of the people who made us experience them in the best possible way.

From our very first email, Joachim was always there: kind, professional, precise and incredibly responsive. He understood our wishes very quickly and helped us shape a truly personalized journey, always adapting the programme to our requests with impressive flexibility. His support continued throughout the trip, right up to the wonderful surprise of finding him waiting for us at the airport in Zanzibar to say goodbye. That level of personal attention is something we will remember.

And then there was Silas, an exceptional guide in every sense. Discreet, friendly, patient and extremely knowledgeable, he has a unique ability to make you understand Tanzania rather than simply see it. He doesn’t just point out an animal: he tells you its story, explains its character, behaviour and social relationships, and makes you appreciate what is happening in front of you.

Some of our most unforgettable moments were watching a lioness hunting, an elephant nursing its calf, a lion on his honeymoon with lionesses, a lunch under an acacia tree in the middle of nowhere in savana and a tiny buffalo calf that the whole herd patiently waited for. These were not simply sightings: Silas’ experience and sensitivity allowed us to understand what we were witnessing and made each scene much more meaningful.

His knowledge of the Serengeti was also fundamental in allowing us to experience the Great Migration and the river crossing at their best. And seeing both a white rhinoceros and a black rhinoceros was another extraordinary highlight. His ability to read the landscape, anticipate animal behaviour and position the vehicle safely and respectfully made an enormous difference.

Silas was equally impressive behind the wheel: calm, safe and extremely confident on Tanzania’s roads and tracks, including some very demanding stretches. We always felt completely in safe hands.

One of the experiences we loved most was actually very different from the classic safari: the cultural tour of Mto wa Mbu by bicycle, organized by Soles. Riding through the village with Pascal and his wonderfully sweet colleague gave us genuine human contact and the opportunity to meet Tanzania beyond the wildlife and landscapes. It was probably the experience that best represented what we came to love about this country: the people.

The lodges were another highlight — beautifully chosen and often spectacular. Sleeping under the African sky, seeing the Milky Way in all its glory, and then hearing the roar of a lion during the night are among the memories we will carry with us forever.

What impressed us most about Soles was the combination of absolute reliability and genuine human warmth. Every part of the programme was punctual, precise and well organized, yet nothing ever felt rigid. They were always ready to listen, adapt and personalize the journey according to our needs.

After travelling extensively and having experienced many different trips, we can honestly say that Soles Tours gave us much more than a safari. They gave us the opportunity to experience Tanzania through its landscapes, its wildlife and, above all, its people.

A special thank you to Joachim and Silas. You made our journey truly unforgettable.

An Unforgettable Experience!
5/5

It was an exciting and unforgettable five days unlike anything I had ever experienced before.
Our guides, Gibson and Brian, were especially dedicated and went above and beyond for us. Despite the demanding schedule, they always drove safely and gave us countless opportunities to witness incredible wildlife and breathtaking scenes.
I have no doubt that choosing Mimsoft for your safari will give you an amazing experience and memories that will last a lifetime.
Thank you so much for everything!

A truly awesome and unique adventure - they take really good care of you!
5/5

We are a family of 5 who did a 7-day safari with Travel Creations Botswana in July 2026.
We could not recommend them highly enough!
From the start they were great to deal with and took really good care of us. David in operations was very responsive and carefully planned our itinerary, our guide/driver TC was a genuine top bloke who guided us safely and responsibly, while sharing his immense knowledge of the animals and areas we visited, and Machine and the camp logistics team were awesome and cooked up the best meals for us - their food (including freshly baked bread from a camp oven) was definitely a highlight!
I would highly recommend this operator for an authentic mobile safari experience in Botswana - great tours (especially for families with kids), great value for money (all-inclusive), and they were also great folks to travel with!
Thanks David, TC and team for a truly memorable trip!

Expert travel agency - great private tours arranged for fair price
5/5

We used Africa Zim for a recent holiday and they are very credible. They arranged private tours and guides for my family with good flexibility and great service. They helped us through any small issues and guided our border crossings and provided local recommendations for food and visits. I liked Kudzie our private guide and recommend you ask for him. You will be very safe and at ease with their service. I was surprised at how safe the experience was, far safer than my home city in the Midwest America. And the animals you will see are beyond the imagination our guide helped spot lion cubs and their mother, rhinos in Zambia, herds of elephants and hippos. You will fall in love with Africa and in love with this travel agency.

Excellent Safari Experience with Outstanding Service and a Wonderful Driver
5/5

We are group of 3 engaged Josero Tours and Safaris. We had an amazing experience with Josero from start to finish. The arrangements were well organised, communication was smooth, and some unexpected activities such as bush dinner was arranged with our surprised. If we have any feedback, the PIC from Josero always gave us a very fast response and solution without hesitations. This is a very plus point as a tourist who visit a place which is not familiar.

The lodges were comfortable and the meals were much better than we expected. Most importantly, our driver, Peter, was excellent — friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. He always made an effort to understand the animals we hoped to see and would patiently look for the best locations for us to get great sightings and photos. His dedication and effort really made our safari experience special.

We truly enjoyed the entire trip and felt well taken care of throughout. Thank you to the Josero team for arranging such a memorable Kenya safari. You will never regret to engage Josero if you are looking for Kenya trip.

An Unforgettable Adventure
5/5

I chose the 6-day Marangu Route with Kilinge Adventures because I wanted the comfort of mountain huts, and it was a fantastic experience. Everything was well organized, from the first briefing to the summit celebration. The team was knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely cared about our success. I couldn't have asked for a better company to climb Kilimanjaro with.
