A Dream Safari Made Even More Special
My husband and I recently traveled to Tanzania to celebrate my birthday, and choosing Zohar African Safari was one of the best decisions we made.
From the moment I reached out for a proposal, the team at Zohar African Safari was incredibly responsive, professional, and accommodating.
They patiently answered all of our questions and happily made several changes to our hotel selections to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. The entire planning process was smooth and stress-free.
One thing that really stood out was how well they accommodated our vegan diet. Every meal was thoughtfully prepared, with delicious options that exceeded our expectations. They also made my birthday feel extra special, adding thoughtful touches that made the celebration unforgettable.
Our safari guide, Daniel, was absolutely outstanding. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Tanzania's wildlife. His expertise and experience in the Serengeti made all the difference. Thanks to him, we were fortunate enough to ser the Big Five and witness the breathtaking Great Migration. He always seemed to know exactly where to go, making sure we were in the right place at the right time for incredible wildlife sightings.
One of the best examples of Daniel's dedication was when he suggested moving our hot air balloon ride to a different day to improve our chances of seeing the Great Migration. We trusted his recommendation, and it worked out perfectly. It ended up being one of the most unforgettable experiences of our entire trip.
Thank you to everyone at Zohar African Safari, and especially to Daniel, for making our birthday trip so memorable. If you're planning a safari in Tanzania, I can't recommend Zohar African Safari enough. Their exceptional service, attention to detail, and genuine care for their guests made this the trip of a lifetime.

Fantastic !
We had an absolutely wonderful trip! Everything was perfect: the choice of accommodations, the tours, etc. … Our driver-guide, Patrick, was very friendly, but also very professional and fascinating. The highlight was, of course, meeting the gorillas—what an emotional experience! The organization was flawless, and being in a group of nine made the experience even more intense.
Thank you to Golden Safaris and Franck for making this experience possible for us.

Incredible, we had the best time, with the best people!!!!
We had such an amazing experience and our guide John was absolutely brilliant and made our trip so special. It was super well organised and communications were so easy. We were very easily able to rent gear before heading up the mountain which was very useful. The porters were absolutely incredible, our trip would not have been the same without them, and the food was delicious!!!! John was so much fun, and made sure we were enjoying ourselves throughout the whole trip (even at 3am in the cold!!), and took us to loads of different view points on the way which were beautiful. Would highly recommend!!

Amazing
Amos responded very quickly and made the booking process easy and smooth. Everything was well organized, and all arrangements were handled efficiently. The experience was great overall, but what truly made this trip unforgettable was our guide, Zawadi.
We did a 3-night, 4-day safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro, and it was truly an unforgettable experience.
We were incredibly lucky to see the Big Five as well as all of the major animals we had hoped to see. Our guide, Zawadi, was absolutely amazing. As soon as we arrived, his incredible tracking skills helped us find lions and leopards very quickly. Throughout the safari, we also saw countless elephants, giraffes, hyenas, jackals, and many other animals, often multiple times.
One of the highlights was searching for Cheetar. They are usually one of the hardest animals to spot, but thanks to Zawadi’s exceptional knowledge and instincts, we were able to find them surprisingly quickly.
He also knew exactly where to position the vehicle so we could take the best possible photos. One unforgettable moment was when an elephant walked right in front of our vehicle—it was an experience we’ll never forget.
Zawadi is kind, humble, and extremely professional. Most importantly, his ability to find wildlife is outstanding. He shared so much knowledge about the animals and the parks, and whenever we didn’t fully understand something, he explained it again using simpler words, making everything easy to follow.
He made our safari experience far richer and more enjoyable than we could have imagined. We highly, highly recommend Zawadi to anyone looking for an exceptional safari guide. Thank you for making our trip so special!

Awesome tour guide!
My family and I spent a day with Baltazary in Arusha. We all enjoyed it including my 3 teenagers. He was an outstanding guide with a warm, friendly personality and a wealth of knowledge. He showed us the local culture and also showed us the city’s must-see attractions. A highlight for us was a tour of the central market. We highly recommend Baltazary!

Very nice guide with a lot of knowledge
Today we had the pleasure of meeting our guide, Willy, for the first time, and we only wish we had met him sooner. He offers personalized game drives at very reasonable prices. His knowledge of the local vegetation and the animals—their behavior in particular—is truly impressive. We had a wonderful time spending the entire day exploring with him, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional safari experience.

Experience of a lifetime, great company.
Our booking process started with sending them a message here on this website and they replied pretty quick with specific information about the tour duration, stops, stays and prices. We asked them to make some changes to our quote to include an extra day and they gave us the new price right away. They reached out to us ~2 weeks before our safari to confirm everything and then reached out ~2 days before our arrival with information about pick up time, driver name and stuff like that. Overall, the communication was great and I appreciate them reaching out to confirm everything.
Shout out to our guide, Leonard, what a fantastic guy. His attitude during this trip was amazing and he helped us find 4 out of the big 5 in the Masai Mara. He was in constant communication with the other guides to ask what they had seen so we could go there and see the same things as well. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw the only leopard people spotted that day. Thank you Leonard for taking us through Masai Mara.
Overall, great experience and we would book with them again without questions.

In one word: reliable and well organized.
Axis Safari is the best!
I booked our family’s private safari from the Netherlands, entirely remotely. Tabitha responded to all of my questions promptly and was incredibly helpful throughout the process. Everyone was very friendly, reliable, and everything was well organized.
Our game drives with our guide, Richard/Nkoile (Masai name), were absolutely amazing. As a Masai himself, he was able to share a wealth of knowledge about the wildlife and their behavior. He was also exceptional at spotting animals. Thanks to his expertise, we saw all of the Big Five! In many cases, we were the first to arrive at sightings, giving us the chance to observe the animals up close and take fantastic photos without the crowds.
I highly recommend Axis Safari to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari experience!!

Fantastic, beautifully done
Amazing tour. The guides, Gilbert and Yusuph, were spectacular naturalists, with eagle eyes spotting everything. We saw the entire gamut of animals. They were flexible in accommodating our large group but also gently guided us to preferred times, and encouraging patience when watching animals. They had a great sense of what was going to happen before it did, and often our patience (waiting and watching) was rewarded by novel behaviors. The price was great for our group size and all the camps/hotels easily accommodated our dietary needs. Lion King communicated exceptionally well before the trip and all the pickups/dropoffs were flawless. But the highlight was our two guides, who made the trip so memorable.
