Unforgettable 7-Day Safari with Praygod
We recently wrapped up a 7-day safari visiting Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Lake Manyara. The wildlife experience in the main parks was incredible!
Praygod stayed with us from start to finish and was absolutely fantastic. He is a phenomenal driver and spotter—exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and determined to give us the best experience possible. Thanks to his hard work, we saw the Big 5 and witnessed an unforgettable river crossing in the Serengeti! Ask for Praygod if you want a seamless and successful safari.
Regarding the pre-trip coordination with our agent, Gipson, the service was adequate, though there is certainly room for improvement in communication and local park guidance.
Simple requests like making a stop at a local market were met with miscommunication, as we were initially asked to stay at the hotel until we insisted. Payment administrative tasks at the office also took longer than expected on the first day.
We specifically asked to see flamingos, and Lake Manyara was included in our plan for this. However, seasonal wildlife conditions meant there were virtually no flamingos and very few animals present. A local agent should have up-to-date knowledge on park conditions and seasonal animal movements. That day would have been far better spent in another park.
Despite the planning oversights, Praygod made our trip truly unforgettable. We highly recommend booking with Praygod as your guide!

What a wonderful surprise
My wife had wanted to go on this Safari for years and eventually my schedule allowed 2 wks of time for it. She asked a friend of hers who had been to Tanzania for medical mission and had great things to say about Tanzania roadside expedition and our experience matches hers .From reservation to 1st stepping off the flight to throughout the safari to leaving back to US we had a wonderful experience in Tanzania .
Our guide Ezequel was amazing. He was courteous, great fun to be with and had an amazing eye.Despite using an excellent pair of binoculars where we saw nothing ,he could point to wildlife with his bare eyes .He had a knack to know when to get up and go, where to go .Some of it is luck during a Safari but the skill of a great guide like him was invaluable. We wanted to see the animal crossing over Marra river and even though everyone turned around ,he asked us to wait and positioned our vehicle superbly barely 100 yards from where the crossing actually occured an hour later.
He has a really good personality and he made sure that the 6 days with him in the Toyota Land cruiser were really enjoyable .
The Land cruiser itself was very well maintained and he kept it immaculate throughout, He and his peers from Tanzania roadside expedition knew where to take us for excellent restaurants in Arusha and were able to arrange another trip quickly for us which we had not initially scheduled .
Except for one place near Gorngoro national park where we stayed for 1 night ( which was good but not great ) the rest of arrangements were very good within the national parks and in Arusha .
All in all an unforgettable experience and I highly recommend this company ( can't vouch for the other drivers and guides but going by our experience with Ezequel I suspect they are all pretty good too).

Everything was perfect, the guide the view all good
We visited Kenya at the end of August. Even We didn’t get to see the wildebeest river crossing, but everything else was wonderful. The accommodation and food were excellent. We will definitely come back another time!
African Big Cats Excellent Safari
African Big Cats Safaris provided a great experience from answering questions before the trip to every part of the safari itself. The itinerary was excellent. We saw all of the animals possible including 5 Mara River crossings. Omega Victor our guide was very helpful, knowledgeable, spotted animals we did not see ourselves. He was an excellent guide. The accommodations were excellent with very friendly staff. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

White horse safari provided a fun experience with great planning, organization and friendly service
White Horse Safaris made our trip to Africa such a great experience! The communication was good, and everyone was friendly and helpful. The safari was well organized, and we felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the trip. Seeing the wildlife and enjoying the safari was definitely one of the best parts. It was a great experience and was so much fun. I would definitely recommend White Horse Safaris to anyone planning a safari!

A wonderful tour operator who offers authentic experiences that go far beyond traditional tourism.
What I love most about their approach is how carefully they choose places that are authentic, sustainable, and full of character, rather than simply luxurious. You can really feel the thought and passion behind every choice. The quality is excellent, while the prices remain genuinely fair — making the whole experience feel both special and truly worthwhile. It’s a way of travelling I really value and wholeheartedly recommend.

A flawless journey through Kenya, brilliantly guided by the one and only Willy.
We couldn't have asked for a better way to experience Kenya's wildlife. Real Shangololo provided great overall service, but Willy truly made the trip legendary. With his sharp, hawk-like eyes, he constantly observed our surroundings and communicated continuously to spot wildlife from miles away and find the prime locations for us. Willy was an absolute pleasure—warm, professional, and incredibly accommodating. We felt thoroughly cared for and saw unforgettable wildlife up close. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a top-notch safari guide!
