Our Safari with Lendimi African Safaris Exceeded All Expectations!
It is hard to find the words to describe the amazing safari adventure that my two friends and I enjoyed for 13 wonderful days in Tanzania. The experience exceeded my expectations in every way, starting with our friendly and knowledgeable guide, Emanuel. He made it his mission to ensure that we had the best time ever & he succeeded. Emi went above and beyond in every way, from positioning us in the best spots for observing wildlife, to dealing with an unforeseen immigration issue. We saw every wild animal that we were hoping to see, and many that I hadn't known existed. Emi was well versed in animal behavior and sighting them from afar, then taking us very close. We saw the spectacular Serengeti from above in a hot air balloon one morning. Our 8 passenger Land Cruiser with an openable lid was our daily vehicle for observing wildlife, including the great migration of wildebeests and zebras. We saw prides of lions, and lions on their honeymoon, leopards in trees, elephants curious enough... Read more to put our car's ariel into its mouth and another elephant showing up at our patio. Our accommodations and meals were fabulous & picnicking on the Serengeti was amazing. Emi set up a table & tablecloth, chairs & boxed lunches for us so we could spend the whole day out on safari instead of having to go back to a hotel to eat. In addition to seeing African animals, our trip included cultural days where we were blessed to meet the people of several different tribes & get a glimpse into their lives. I highly recommend Lendimi Safaris if you are thinking about making your dream of an African safari come true. It was a once in a lifetime, incredible trip!

Exceeds expectations
We had one of the most memorable trips with Meektrails. Their communication was always prompt, no matter the time of day. The itinerary was exceptionally well-planned, ensuring that activities were never repetitive. There was always something exciting to look forward to each day. We were truly fortunate to have Peter as our guide. This man has incredible eyesight and is exceptional at spotting wildlife, ensuring that we didn’t miss a single thing. He was also incredibly attentive, accommodating to our needs, always punctual, highly knowledgeable, and a joy to travel with. Would totally recommend anyone that is coming to Kenya to book with Meektrails, and ask for Peter!

Incredible Trip - Can't Recommend Wayfairer Enough !!
Where to begin! It was a lifelong dream trip turned reality thanks to the amazing team at Wayfairer, specifically Dalia, Ellie and Issac (our guide in Tanzania). From the very beginning, ranging from recommendations, suggestions and handfuls of options matching desire and price, they were thorough, descriptive and extremely honest about what would best suit our needs. It was seamless from beginning to end! The itinerary laid out exactly what we were going to do and when, and it went off without a hitch! We never had to worry about our flights, cars to and from locations or our lodges. They handled EVERYTHING! It was truly the epitome of relaxation. Everyone we encountered took amazing care of us, the lodges, staff and towns in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, Ole Pejeta, Kenya, Masai Mara, Kenya, Serengeti, Tanzania, Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania and Mahe, Seychelles were INCREDIBLE!!!!! The staff, the hospitality, the FOOD - pure magic. This trip would not have been possible without the ease and help from the team at Wayfairer. We can't wait to book another trip, and every one after that, with them!!!! THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

Our guide, Kush, was the epitome of expertise and kindness, ensuring every moment was filled with wonder and excitement. Despite not staying in 5-star hotels, the staff's warmth and helpfulness made every aspect of our trip truly special.
The landscapes were stunning, and the wildlife encounters were unforgettable. Kush's deep knowledge allowed us to witness the majesty of lions, elephants, and giraffes up close. His dedication to ensuring we had the best experience possible was evident in every game drive. The campsites were well-maintained, offering a cozy retreat after each day's adventures.
Overall, Jocky Tours exceeded our expectations, providing an authentic and enriching safari experience that we will cherish forever. Kush's guidance was the highlight of our trip, and we highly recommend Jocky Tours for anyone seeking an unforgettable African adventure.

Experienced guides & flexible private safari tour operator from Arusha
I can highly recommend Ozon as a safari tour agency. We booked a private safari for 3 people, as a 7-day trip across 5 different parks in northern Tanzania.
Our safari experience was truly exceptional, largely thanks to our outstanding guide Kess.
From the moment we set off, it was clear that our driver was not only experienced and knowledgeable, but also genuinely passionate about sharing the wonders of the Tanzanian wilderness. He navigated the parks with expertise, knowing all the best shortcuts and viewpoints, ensuring we captured the most incredible photos (he even stopped the engine when we needed sharp pictures and no noise for the recording) while always respecting our needs and preferences.
His clean and well-maintained Land Cruiser added to our comfort. While other companies offer beer and wine as part of the package, we were happy with a fridge with refreshing water and soft drinks. We purchased beer in local shops when we needed.
Our guide... Read more kept us informed and engaged throughout the journey, sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife and the local culture (e.g. talking about different tribes, farming). He was always attentive, listening to our requests and even utilizing radio communication with other drivers to track animal movements, maximizing our chances of unforgettable sightings.
Our guide's modesty was refreshing. He focused on providing an authentic and enriching experience, rather than pushing for extras. We were impressed by his attention to detail, double-checking everything to ensure our comfort and safety.
The safari itself was a dream come true, with breathtaking moments at Ndutu (the most positive surprise), the Ngorongoro Crater, vast lands of Serengeti, Manyara (another positive surprise), and Tarangire.
I appreciate the communication of Ozon Light Tours with Letson who took care of the booking and was securing all the admin stuff. We communicated via WhatsApp.
Ozon (as well as some other agencies) utilizes a software that creates compelling PDF offers that are clearly showing accomodations, schedule, and services offered in the price. There were no surprises nor attempts to manipulate the price.
The fantastic combination of lodges and mid-range tented camps Letson selected for us was great. Securing a hot air balloon ride was a good value for money, and the ride itself was an unforgettable experience.
Ozon's driver who took us on a final day to the airport was open to our suggestions, even helping us arrange unique experiences like trying the local mbege (banana beer).
We're also glad that we could support a local Arusha company (afaik with a female owner).
It's no wonder this tour agency consistently receives 5-star reviews – it truly deserves them!

Absolutely to recommend!
The safari was enjoyable. The guide showed us various animals, including all of the Big Five. Although we did not request an Italian-speaking guide, our guide also spoke Italian, which helped everyone understand. Providing more detailed explanations of the animals would be an improvement.
Absolutely to recommend!
