Very reliable, on time and trustworthy
5/5

First of all I want to thank the whole team for this unforgettable experience!

We stayed at the Kruger Gate Hotel and it was perfect, even better than described/in the pictures.
The team, Konghi, Norman (in the field) and Marcus always made us feel welcome and provided us with the best safari experience possible.
Special thanks goes to Norman (in the office) who was always super quick to reply and answer all of my questions, even during the stay.

An unforgettable journey
5/5

We traveled as a couple and chose Serengeti Wakanda for our 5-day safari in Tanzania, and we would choose them again a thousand times over.
From our very first request for information, we were assigned the extremely kind Goodluck as our main contact. He was always incredibly punctual with his replies and constantly made sure to fully understand what we were expecting from the safari, in order to guarantee us the best possible experience. Beyond organizing the parks and safari areas, as well as the overnight accommodations, Goodluck provided us with every possible piece of information regarding any curiosity or doubt we had. Truly outstanding support.

As for the safari itself, it is difficult to put into words all the emotions we experienced during this incredible journey. What we know for sure is that it would not have been the same without our amazing guide John.
John is not only a very friendly and genuinely funny person, but also a true living encyclopedia when it comes to African wildlife. Throughout the safari we asked him countless questions, and he always answered with enthusiasm, often adding even more fascinating details. His knowledge is not limited to animals alone, but also extends to the flora — absolutely incredible.
What impressed us the most is that John seems to know every single road, track, and area of the parks by heart, in a way that is honestly hard to believe. During the entire safari, he managed to transmit his deep love for nature and for this land, and thanks to his extraordinary experience, he gifted us with truly rare sightings. We were told that seeing a leopard on safari is quite rare… well, thanks to John (and our immense joy), we saw five of them! Not to mention the two rare rhinos in the Ngorongoro Crater, serval cats, cheetahs, and countless other extraordinary encounters.
John was also always extremely attentive to every one of our needs throughout the safari and during the game drives.
Thank you, John, for your kindness, your humor, and your incredible expertise!

Another fundamental person who made our safari truly unforgettable was our chef Sule. Sule accompanied us throughout the entire trip, preparing delicious meals especially for us. He carefully checked our food preferences and made sure to buy fresh, suitable ingredients every time. We can only be enthusiastic about the meals he prepared. Every single meal — from breakfast to lunch and dinner — was freshly cooked just before each occasion and perfectly organized so we could enjoy great food wherever we were during the game drives. All the dishes were absolutely delicious, and every day he surprised us by varying the menu, cooking not only local dishes but even Italian ones. Everything was truly excellent!

Our safari took place in the first days of January 2026 and included Tarangire, Serengeti, Ndutu, and the Ngorongoro Crater. All the accommodations were incredible, with a special mention for Taji House, right in the heart of the Serengeti, where we fell asleep at night to the sounds of hyenas, lions, and hippos, as well as the tent at Simba Camping in Ngorongoro, which was an absolutely breathtaking and unforgettable place.

We could talk for hours about this magnificent experience, but words would still not do it justice.
Thank you, Serengeti Wakanda — we are certain this is only a see you again.

Wild Uganda Tours
Words alone are so inadequate to describe the wonderful and exciting 10 day tour I took with Wild Uganda Tours to see the famed Mountain Gorillas of Uganda.
While my tour took me all over Uganda to see Chimpanzees, Lions, Hippopotamus, Giraffe, Shoe Bill birds and so many other exotic animals none could compare to the Silver Back Mountain Gorillas!
Amazing animals these Mountain Gorillas! I was my honor and privilege to visit our distant genetic cousins in their natural habitat!
Thanks goes out to Mr. Ernest my tour coordinator and to my awesome tour guide Mr. Brian. These fine gentlemen help me create memories of my Uganda adventure that will last me a lifetime!
I fully endorse Wild Uganda Tours and I consider them the best at their tourism craft!
Look no further than Wild Uganda for all of your African country tourists needs!

A Memorable Experience
5/5

In short, a memorable experience. Mountain Warriors (MW) team were very professional from the planning phase until the drop off to our hotel at the end.

Ruth provided us the initial quotation and was responsive to all our queries timely. Upon initial payment, Ruth shared the confirmations to the flights and accomodations.

We got picked up from our hotel in Zanzibar and took flights to our Safari starting point. We started our Safari in Serona Sengreti where we met our wonderful guide John. Although our schedule in Sengreti was short, we were able to spot Big Five and Big Cats thanks to John's experience. We have spent the night in Warriors Luxury Tented Lodge. The experience of sleeping in the wild was amazing. The team were super protective and attentive to our satisfaction (Sudi and Edison).

On our second day, we visited Ngorongoro Crater and were able to get good shots of the Rhinos. John managed our schedule really well and accommodated all our requests kindly. We then spent the night at Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge. The place was full of trees and the breeze brushing against them just felt refreshing. The Lodge's team were very professional.

On our last day, John and MW's team were very helpful in adjusting our flight time. We visited Tarangire where we spotted more lions and elephants.

Overall, I would recommend Mountain Warriors as a group and John specifically as a guide to all people thinking about Safari in Tanzania.

An Unforgettable 4-Day Safari with Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures.
5/5

Our 4-day safari with Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures was nothing short of extraordinary and easily one of the best travel experiences of my life. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, professional, and deeply enriching.

We began in Tarangire National Park, where we were immediately blown away by the vast landscapes, ancient baobab trees, and huge herds of elephants. Our guide had an incredible eye for wildlife and shared so much knowledge about animal behaviour, ecology, and local culture, which made every game drive feel meaningful and exciting.

The journey continued to the Southern Serengeti, timed perfectly for the Great Migration. Witnessing thousands of wildebeest and zebras moving across the plains was absolutely breathtaking and something I will never forget. Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures clearly understands the migration patterns and knew exactly where to take us for the best possible sightings, away from crowds and right in the heart of the action.

Our final stop was the Ngorongoro Crater, and it exceeded every expectation. Descending into the crater felt like entering another world. We saw an incredible concentration of wildlife in just a few hours, including lions, elephants, hippos, and even a rare glimpse of a black rhino. The scenery alone is worth the trip, but the expert guiding made it truly exceptional.

Throughout the safari, the vehicle was comfortable and well maintained, meals were delicious, and accommodations were carefully selected and exceeded expectations. Most importantly, the team at Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures especially Erick from the office made us feel safe, well cared for, and genuinely welcomed. His passion for Tanzania and wildlife shines through in everything they do.

If you are looking for a professional, trustworthy, and unforgettable safari experience, I cannot recommend Wildebeest Footsteps Adventures highly enough. This was a once in a lifetime adventure, and I would happily travel with them again.

From the moment we landed until our departure, The Shuttle orchestrated every moment. As a party of three, we felt we had a private, customized experience that went far beyond our expectations. Bob, the tour planner, and Francis, the incredible guide, were 5 star!

Knowledgable, attentive, professional and awesome!
5/5

This safari was truly a once in a lifetime experience, and it was made extraordinary by the incredible people behind it.

From the very first conversation, Talib was exceptional. He was our main point of contact and handled the booking with such professionalism, care, and attention to detail. It genuinely felt like he was as invested in our trip as we were. He was always available, incredibly knowledgeable, and completely committed to making sure we had the best possible experience. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and that level of care gave us so much confidence and peace of mind before we even arrived.

Spending four days in the Serengeti with Michael was an absolute privilege. His passion for wildlife and deep knowledge of the animals and the land were inspiring. Beyond that, he is simply a wonderful human being to be around. He was incredibly patient, kind, and thoughtful with our 2 year old, which meant everything to us as parents. His ability to track and spot animals was unbelievable! thanks to him, we saw all of the Big Five, as well as elusive animals like cheetahs and leopards that we know we would never have found without his expertise.

When our luggage failed to arrive in Tanzania due to airline issues, what could have been a stressful situation was handled with such care by Daniel. Even as we headed off into the Serengeti, he worked tirelessly behind the scenes, chasing the airline and managing the logistics. Thanks to him, we were reunited with our cases as soon as we landed in Zanzibar. His hospitality, warmth, and calm reassurance meant more to us than we can put into words.

This experience was so much more than just a safari, it was personal, seamless, and deeply special. The entire team; Talib, Mazaher, Daniel, and Michael, went above and beyond at every step, and we are so grateful to each of them. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend this team to anyone dreaming of an unforgettable safari experience.
