Made me fall in love with Tanzania
Suricata Safari made me fall in love with Africa, and Tanzania. Everything from when I was picked up on the airport to when I left has been so amazing that it's difficult to spell out in words.
Our guide and driver Charles was very knowledgeable and made sure we saw all the big 5, most of them on several occasions. The chef Mukhucin was amazing and made some of the best and diverse food I have ever tasted. Make sure to tip them well!
The camping spots were very good and most of them even had hot water for showering. I would recommend bringing some earplugs though since the animals can make quite some noise at night. We had everything from small dik-dik to elephants visiting our camps so you really get to get close to the wildlife. Also, if you are going to Ngorongoro, make sure to bring some warm clothes.
The only criticism I have is that when I was going to Serengeti we were a bit late and didn't get that much out of the day, and in Ngorongoro two other people were joining our group and there was an issue with the permit which made us all very late for the crater. They did solve this in a very good way though and I was very pleased with how it all turned out.
I am for sure returning to Tanzania after this experience!

Remarkable Safari Adventure
Our Tanzania safari was a truly remarkable journey, packed with exciting experiences. We enjoyed exhilarating wildlife safaris, where we witnessed a pride of lions on the hunt and admired the vast herds of elephants in Tarangire. One of the most unforgettable moments was a balloon ride over the Serengeti at dawn, offering breathtaking panoramic views. We also had the chance to visit the hippo pool in the Serengeti, where we watched these fascinating creatures interact in their natural environment.
Our stay in luxurious glamping camps such as Serengeti Wildebeest Camp, Ikoma Wild Camp, and Ngorongoro Wild Camp gave us the perfect mix of comfort and wilderness immersion. Musa’s expert knowledge and warm hospitality made the experience even more memorable. We're already planning our next adventure to this magical place!

Walking tour through Ngorongoro Highlands with authentic Maasai connection
Our 5-day Ngorongoro Highlands Hike with Roko was an interesting and enjoyable experience. Day 1 and day 5 are driving days between Arusha and the highlands/rift valley with two walks (Olmoti & Empakaai) added on day 1 which was a good way to start the tour.
Day 2 & 3 were the real walking days with a long descent towards Lake Natron on day 3.
These two days also gave us opportunity to observe and interact with Maasai people who live in the area. This was interesting and made this tour very special.
On day 4 we visited a hot spring near Lake Natron. We weren’t able to do the walk to the waterfall although there was plenty of downtime in the afternoon. We would have liked to do a walk that day as well so worthwhile exploring with Roko in advance if that is possible.
We also had the opportunity to do some bonus game driving in the “little Serengeti” and saw plenty of wildlife during the drive back to Arusha.
The accommodation at the Maasai Guesthouse in Esaserongo was very good.
The meals and snacks provided during the trip were of high quality, with fresh ingredients and good flavours. Don’t worry about getting hungry: Roko, Miranda and the chef will ensure that there is plenty of food.
We would recommend this tour to people who want a small scale tour with walking activities involved, who don’t mind camping in the bush and who are prepared to travel according to “Africa time “ (waiting for things to happen without being clear what you are waiting for).

Benson is a professional, friendly, and ensures a well-organized safari experience.
We had an incredible 2-day full game drive experience in Masai Mara with Tall Masai Safari. Benson arranged everything perfectly and made sure the trip was smooth and comfortable. We had two different guides on each day, and both were very knowledgeable about wildlife and the park. We were able to spot the Big Four - lions, elephants, buffalo, and leopards - and although we couldn’t find a rhino, the second guide really went the extra mile trying to locate one for us, which we truly appreciated.
The overall cost was budget-friendly and definitely better compared to offers on major travel apps like Klook and MMT. We felt safe, well taken care of, and fully enjoyed our time in the wild. I would highly recommend Tall Masai Safari for an amazing and affordable Masai Mara adventure!

Phenomenal!!!
Our safari with David Sasine was truly unforgettable.
From the moment we met him, it was clear that he is deeply passionate—not only about the wildlife, but about the entire experience of guiding. He went above and beyond every single day to make sure our trip was extraordinary. David was incredibly attentive, always anticipating what we might need, and constantly ensuring that we were comfortable, informed, and having the best possible time.
His passion for the animals and the land is contagious. He was just as excited as we were, (sometimes even more!) about every sighting, especially when it came to the Big Five.
Thanks to his dedication, deep knowledge, and unbelievable eye, we were able to see all of them. It genuinely felt like he was sharing in our joy every step of the way.
This trip was a milestone birthday for me, and David made it feel so special. He took the time to get to know us, to share his culture and stories, and to make every moment feel personal and meaningful.
His communication was exceptional—always clear, always thoughtful, and always responsive. He was punctual every day, incredibly patient with our questions and any changes we needed to make, and always focused on finding the best solution to keep the experience seamless.
David is not just a phenomenal guide…he is a truly great person. We feel so lucky to have had him lead our safari, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Thank you, David, for making this trip unforgettable!!!!!
Highly recommend!

Amazing service from start to finish
We had an amazing trip to Kenya - everything was really well organised by Dennis who made the whole process completely stress free! Communication was great throughout and he answered any questions we had straight away.
Our safari guide James was absolutely brilliant - fun, knowledgeable and just a great person to be around. He also took some amazing photos for us!
Kenya itself was beautiful and everywhere we stayed was great. Hopefully we can come back one day and would certainly book with Morning star again!

Best guide ever!
Amazing time with Lion King Adventures and our guide Salehe!
We went to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the crater, southern and northern Serengeti. From airport pickup to our last day, Lion king did an amazing job creating our itinerary and selecting our accomodation.
Salehe was so knowledgeable on the animals we saw and we got to see the Big 5 with him. He also shared information on the tribes, flowers, plants and life in Tanzania. He was a great and safe driver as well. He was always accommodating to stop anytime to see anything we wanted from the jeep even if we have seen the same animal multiple times. He was always making sure we had the opportunity to take pictures and also finding great scenes to shoot.
Our accommodations before the parks and our tented accommodations in the park were exceeding our expectations and had all amenities needed (wifi, soap, towels, water, coffee, tea and sometimes toothpaste as well!) and very comfortable beds. Breakfast and dinner were mostly buffet style with all types of local food and we also had a BBQ one night which was very tasteful.
The lunch food during the safari was amazing! It was 5 star picnic with actual silverware and plates, drinks and some sweets at the end.
The people we encountered and Salehe were very welcoming and polite, full of happiness and smiles.
I would definitely recommend Lion King Adventures to anyone!

Great Plan and a great team
We had a unique experience with Nextgen Safari. Planing with Benald was very professional and precise. He was patient, supportive and accommodated all our wishes in a relaxed manner finding a solution to all our desires without pushing and hassle free. Victor the driver/guide was very pleasant and made us feel extremely comfortable throughout. And of course the Safari, especially the Gorilla and chimpanzees was a once in a life time experience. I warmly recommend this company!

amazing
Apex Expedition exceeded all expectations. They came beforehand to tell us about our safari trip to Mikumi, and they drove a long way to pick us up and take us back again. We had a fantastic driver throughout the entire weekend, who managed to spot the animals we were able to see and explained everything we were curious about. All in all, a very successful experience.
