A professional, very helpfull organization. Giving support throughout the whole safari, start to end
We booked a two-day safari in Nyerere National Park with Lekobe. The planning started while we were still at home, and the communication was good from the beginning. Lazier was helpful, replied quickly, and gave us an attractive offer. Shortly before the trip, we had some more contact, which was both professional and friendly.
We were picked up from our hotel at the agreed time by a good driver. At the airport, Lazier was waiting for us and helped us with the final arrangements. After landing, our safari guide David was already waiting for us with the Land Rover. David took his time, told us a lot about the animals we saw, and took very good care of us. He provided a delicious and generous breakfast and lunch. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The accommodation was excellent. Also when we came back to Zanzibar after the two day safari, Lazier was there to get us to the taxi which brought us back to the resort.
We are very happy that we booked this safari with a local company. The value for money was outstanding, and we highly recommend Lekobe to other travelers!

Exceptional!
I couldn’t be happier that we chose Meru Slopes Tours and Safaris Limited for our Tanzania Safari. Rarely these days does anyone meet your expectations, must less exceed them. But that’s exactly what we got with Meru Slopes.
I started working with Shadrack back in February. We went back and forth because I had a lot of questions and wants. And an average budget. Not once did he ever make me feel like I was a bother. Not once did I NOT get a response in a timely manner, which made me wonder if he ever slept. His customer service was so next level, I actually thought that he was the owner. I did not get any of that from any other Company I reached out too.
We ended up booking a 9 day private mid-range Tour because of the affordability. We visited Lake Manyara, The Central Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Highlands and Crater and Tarangire National Park. Mude was our guide and he was fantastic. He was an exceptional driver, extremely accommodating to our needs, kept our Land Rover clean, made sure we had hot lunches everyday and had a mission to make sure we saw the top 5 and every other species of animals available. And we did, he was such a good spotter. I can’t quit raving about him, Shadrack and everyone else at this Company. Tells me everything I need to know about the owner, who by the way, is a local. And we like to support the locals.
Every place we stayed was different, unique, beautiful and comfortable. The food was amazing, and so good at two of the places, we asked for the chef to thank him personally. We were just there in April from the 21st to the 29th(2026). It was shoulder season so there weren’t many other people. In two of the places we stayed, we were the only ones there. You would think the service wouldn’t be as good, but on the contrary. We got so much attention.
It was towards the end of rainy season, but luckily, there was very little. And it came at times that never affected our safari’s. Every single day we saw so many animals. Herd after Herd of Wildebeest, Elephants, Zebra, so many different types of Antelopes, Lions, Cheetahs, Hippos, Rhinos, the list goes on. Until what they call the Great Migration when some animals head to Kenya, from September to July, they are all in The Serengeti in Tanzania. And migrating daily to different areas in the park. Spring is when the babies are born, and every herd had a lot. Every day was something new and exciting, too many highlights to list them all, but one of our favorites; Finding about 4 mama lions and lots of babies eating a wildebeest they had killed the night before. We were the first ones there and stayed for at least an hour. At some point, a couple of other jeeps turned up, but in season, you could experience over 50. No thanks.
The one thing I would change about our itinerary; I would not include Tarangire, the last National Park we visited. And I would spend two nights at the places where we only stayed one night. And I would probably add in a few other places in Tanzania. Instead, we headed to Kenya for a 5 day Safari thinking we would see something different. After Tanzania, and such a perfect Safari on every level. Kenya was a huge disappointment. Especially the roads, they were horrendous. Tanzania truly was a dream of a lifetime. And it didn’t break the bank. Shadrack, Mude, Joseph, Edmond and every other single person we met in Tanzania was genuinely friendly, sincere, and just good people. Our accommodation was unique and beautiful. The Food fantastic. The service exceptional.

Best trip ever! Warm hospitality, amazing hotels, and unforgettable safaris with Jeff
This has been our best trip ever so far. We received such a warm welcome from Peter, and our journey through Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli was absolutely incredible with Jeff as our guide.
Jeff is extremely knowledgeable about Kenya’s wildlife and truly goes above and beyond to make every game drive an unforgettable experience. He always made sure we spotted the highlight animals in each park and brought us to the best photo spots. On top of that, his driving was always safe and comfortable throughout the trip.
I would highly recommend booking with Edwin Safari and asking for Jeff if you’re planning to visit Kenya — you’ll be in great hands.
Also, every hotel selection was excellent and made the whole experience even more memorable.

Very good service and excellent communication!
African beast is a very reliable tour operator. We placed an offer online and within minutes I was in contact with Mercy. They reply within minutes to request or questions. Everything was perfectly well arranged.

Exceptional Safari Experience with Professional Service
Jungleroam Safaris provided a well-organized, memorable, and authentic safari experience with knowledgeable guides and excellent customer service
Our guide, Baba John💙, was outstanding—friendly, highly knowledgeable, and dedicated to giving us the best possible experience. My only minor observation is that he was very strict about following park regulations, which I respect and appreciate. However, some other guides seemed less strict, allowing their guests to get closer to wildlife and enjoy better viewing angles at times.

Reliable operator with great staff
We did a private 8-day tour including following national parks: Kibale (chimps), Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi Impenetrable (gorillas) and Lake Mburo, in this order. We were just 2 persons in the car, myself and my husband.
The trip was so much more than just travelling and being on a safari, it was an adventure we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We saw so many different animals that it was hard to keep track. The most memorable moments were the chimpanzee and gorilla trekkings, the Kazinga channel cruise and a walking safari among the giraffes.
I first selected three different operators through the safaribookings.com that I asked an offer from. I then selected one (Pamoja Tours&Travel) based on itinerary, price and other information I got from the operator.
Working on the booking with Pamoja (Regina Atamba) worked very well from the beginning to the end (we also had to change some dates as our flights were rebooked). Regina must hold the unofficial record in response time - also on weekends which we worry a bit about ;-)
The meals, hotels, park visits etc. were better than expected and according to the plan. You will not go hungry in Uganda!
We did not need to worry about anything during the trip. Our guide was Amos, a very knowledgeable and also agreeable person to travel with (thank you so much!) - everything went very smoothly! Amos is also a great photographer and a birdwatcher.
We did drive 1500km during the week on roads with variable condition so we got the "African massage" almost every day. If I would book the trip again, I would fly the longest legs. Also, we had a very packed programme so I might see to having one or two afternoons off (= without any programme).

The best tours to Mount Meru and Safari
We loved the two tours we did with King Mufasa. First we hiked Mount Meru. The guide Akle was amazing. He kept the energy high and was positive, knew a lot and took really good care of us. Also the other part of the crew was amazing. Everyone was so sweet and all was well arranged. Mount Meru itself was wonderful and would 100% recommend it! After that we did a three day safari to different parks. We stayed in beautiful lodges and also the guide Joel was very professional and knew a lot about the parks and the animals.
The communication with king mufasa especially with Davis was so good. From the start until the end everything was communicated so clearly.

Dreams Fulfilled
This was the honeymoon of a lifetime. We are still dreaming about our trip around Kenya. Our tour guide George was absolutely incredible. His kindness, warmness, and knowledge on animal life was spectacular. The communication was thorough and the service of Tapestry exceeded our expectations. We saw everything we wanted to and more! Would definitely recommened and can't wait to do another tour with Tapestry.

Experience of a lifetime, you will not be disappointed!!
This was our first safari and Wild Serenity Safari’s made it so easy from start to end, enabling us to have the experience of a lifetime.
There are so many companies and tours to choose from we were struggling to find the ONE that would really work for us. We came across SafariBookings and a 3 day mid-range budget tour from Arusha, covering the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
Wild Serenity safari’s were really quick to send us a proposal, which was a really high quality itinerary that covered the whole 3 days, with each days itinerary broken down, including accommodation details and photo’s (and even alternatives to consider), tour route, meal plans, and what we could expect to see throughout each day. It laid out very clearly what was included in the costs, which was pretty much everything but tips (and it even gave us some information on the ranges expected and when to tip) so nothing was left to chance, and there would be no surprises. It was also really good value compared to all the other tours we’d seen, really getting that mid-range package that we wanted just right for us. We were really impressed with the detail and quality of the proposal, and the value for money and it gave us real confidence in what we would be getting.
But that was just the start. We also received a WhatsApp from Derrick at Wild Serenity Safari’s to confirm the proposal, and create a message thread to ensure communication was direct and smooth, and to answer any questions. We had some questions and also a bit of back and forth on dates, all of which Derrick answered immediately and with super flexibility. As we were close to finalising everything we needed to speak with Derrick and although it was late local time, he got straight back to us. Having this level of personal contact was super helpful and quickly established the trust we needed to choose the right tour and operator. At this point we knew Wild Serenity Safari’s would be a great choice.
So, we paid a deposit of 10% via a payment link, which was really easy, safe and secure and received a payment receipt (more re-assurance for us) and there were a few additional questions that Derrick answered via WhatsApp for us as the tour got closer. We were collected from Arusha airport exactly as planned, and Derrick also came to our hotel to give us a briefing the night before the tour started, which was really exceptional.
The tour itself was amazing, we wanted to experience the iconic Serengeti as well as the incredible Ngorongoro crater and the 3 days / 2 nights itinerary was perfect for us. Wild Serenity Safari’s choose their guides carefully and ours - Deus - was super friendly and very experienced. We knew the first day would be driving from Arusha to the Serengeti so we expected it would be more driving than seeing animals, but even on the way Deus took time to stop and see so many animals and also taking some diversions to see more, it felt like a full on game drive. The actual game drives of day 2 and 3 were also amazing, we saw everything. Deus knew where to go, using all his experience to find the animals and take the time for us to spend observing them, photographing them and getting up close and personal, with full respect for the animals and their welfare. We even saw 3 leopards, which is very rare, we felt very lucky indeed.
So, whether it’s your first safari or you’ve done many, we would highly recommend Wild Serenity Safari’s as your tour operator. They are a young company and it’s a very competitive market with so many tour operators to choose from. Because they’re a young company they don’t yet have thousands of reviews, but don’t let that concern you, the quality of the reviews and their actual service and the level and personalisation of their experience is what’s most important.
Let them give you a proposal and you’ll see and feel that for yourself, they will help ensure you also get an experience of a lifetime!!!!!
