The Tour Operator was very courteous and took great care of us. We recommend.
We had a great 3 day safari. The service and people there really looked after us and were very friendly. We had a lot of fun during these 3 days and saw so many amazing animals. Any time!

Friend in Tanzania
The entire tour was well organized and went well. Danny Boy, Daniel and the team was very friendly and open to suggestions. They arranged Serengeti tented camp as per my choice. I would like to go Central Serengeti soon with this team.
My only problem with the driver / guide( Chicho) who is very polite and good driver for normal tourist, but I was expected a better option who knows little about the area better. After waiting for more than 3 hours I never expected the man will miss the actual spot of migration on the very first day and trying to find out a place behind many cars who were there with good position. However after I told him next day he tried his best(although almost missed the right place) and ultimately stand besides a car from where somehow I can take some good photos of migration. Hopefully he now understand what a real photographer wants and how to handle their expectations. We shouldn't be treated as normal tourist who goes with mobile camera or take casual shots.
You want to visit Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Ndutu, Manyara just reach to get the best price and service from one place. Good luck DannyBoy and Daniel, we will meet soon.

First but memorable Tanzania trip.
We just completed our 8 day (7 night) safari in Tarangire, Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Eyasi with African Wanderlust Adventures. Amazing Tanzania safari experience! They put together a package with mixtures of Wildlife and Cultural safari. Everything was excellent from our driver guide Noel, 4x4 safari Land Cruiser, accommodations and meals in the bush.
Noel's decades of experience in safari guiding resulted in us enjoying all the animals we were interested to see, including the elusive ones like leopards, lions, cheetah and black rhinos, and others, not to mention the wide range of birds.
Since it was my first safari and it exceeded my expectations. I recommend Robert's team for people who want to get a real taste of Tanzania safari experience! Much lucky if you'll have Noel on board.

Indigo Safaris planned the perfect vacation!! Best trip ever!!
We will 100% use Indigo Safaris again!! They were recommended to us by a family friend and I could not be happier with the trip Ines planned for us! Her communication was so timely and professional. I asked so many questions, and Ines always answered each one. This trip felt so personal and tailored to our family and was absolutely perfect for our first time in South Africa. Ines is a phenomenal agent and went above and beyond to make our trip extra special! My mom has trouble walking and it's hard for her to get in and out of taller vehicles, like the safari jeep. Through communication with Ines, she made sure the lodge knew exactly what my mom needed and the lodge did an amazing job making everything easily accessible for her. Everything was set up and ready upon arrival. On top of that, my brother and his girlfriend got engaged on our trip and it could not have been more perfect. Indigo Safaris set everything up with the lodge beforehand, so my brother didn't have to stress about it. The entire trip from beginning to end was just amazing! We never worried about anything, because there was always someone there helping us along the way. From transfers, to accommodations, to meals, everything went so smoothly, and that is all thanks to Ines and the Indigo Safari team! Indigo Safaris has an amazing team who are so knowledgeable and helpful! I highly highly recommend letting Indigo Safaris plan your perfect Africa trip!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! Trip of a lifetime!!!! Book with Indigo Safaris, you won't be disappointed!

Trustworthy company that will go beyond your expectations in ever way and treat you like family.
In July 2021, I went on this 5 day safari trip with Safari Soles. It was amazing. I was traveling alone (32yr old white female from the USA) and had a wonderful experience.
I chose this company based on my initial email experience with Bryson vs emails with other companies. He went out of the way to tell me about the great migration happening around my travel time and helping me plan to travel for that (instead of just picking random dates as I was doing).
I planned this trip kind of last minute (with about 1 month notice). Bryson and his team had everything handled for me from the transfer to and from the airport, hotel stays before and after my trip, lodging during the trip, amazing meals during the trip, transportation to get covid pcr test before returning home (taken to testing site by Bryson, the owner of the company, at 5:30pm on a Saturday when I last minute told him I needed it).
I had Fredy as my wonderful guide, Ali as the chef, and 5 newly formed friends in the safari truck (the truck is huge, has 4 seats on each side so everyone gets a window seat. Pop-up roof got better viewing also). The chef prepares full course meals, it’s amazing what he can do.
On the safari, our Zoologist Fredy had tons of information to provide on each animal we came across. He was both fun and insightful. He knew exactly where to take us to see the most animals and how to have fun singing the lion king soundtrack on the way. Our truck got to witness the great migration of wildebeest traveling through the river and crocodiles trying to eat them, 4 of the big 5 African safari animals, and numerous other animals. There are so many lions!!!
I fully recommend Safari Soles to anyone traveling to Tanzania and will definitely be going back on safari with them again! The entire team is amazing. Trust me, you WON’T be disappointed.

If you've ever wanted to go on safari this is the time!
If you've ever considered going on a safari this is the perfect time. Although South Africa is listed as a "Red Country" it is simply impossible to catch COVID-19 from a wild rhino, leopard, herd of elephants or any of a thousand birds that you will see. We had an amazing time on our trip to Motswari and Kapama lodges which are both located adjacent to Kruger park. Flying from Johannesburg to Hoedspruit is a short flight and was very easy. The lodges are lovely, the food amazing, the game drives life changing. Because tourism is down the game trucks have fewer people in them making for a more tailored experience. Bomas are outside and the only time we were inside was when we were alone by ourselves. South Africa has just opened up vaccinations for everyone over age 35, and staff at the lodges have started receiving vaccines. Remember that everyone over a minimum age has to have a PCR test to travel on international flights, making those flights the safest in the world. We were taken by our game guide into Hoedspruit for our PCR tests for our outbound flights, for roughly 52 USD each with results in a day. Specifically regarding Greatest Africa, I spoke with several safari companies and only Greatest Africa was able to accommodate 1 adult with 3 children. Vanessa from Greatest Africa found accommodations that included two connecting rooms at Motswari and a family suite at Kapama. My children made friends with other children, hung out alone in the main lodge and moved freely around in a way I would never have allowed stateside. This was a life changing experience for all of us and if we should ever be able to return it won't have the same privilege as during this time of COVID. This really is the time to go, you'll remember it forever.

Takes care of you the whole way providing a stress free excellent adventure
My wife and I wanted to do a safari in both Kenya and Tanzania. Apodiformes had a great 12 day trip with a good price. Silas the tour operator was easy to communicate with and great at answering our questions. Silas also picked us up and dropped us off at the airport.
Silas also arranged for our covid test to return home. Our three drivers Martin, Moses, and Richard were great at providing information about the animals and the different wildlife parks. Our drivers communicated with us on our daily activities and responded to our requests when able. We highly recommend this tour and company and I hope you able to get the same drivers. Overall it was an amazing unforgettable experience.
