Fantastic experience with Tanzania Explorer
Our safari trip was originally planned for July 2020, but due to covid-19, we unfortunately had to postpone the trip first to 2021, and then once again to 2022. Tanzania Explorer were extremely flexible with regard to our trip, and fully understood our concerns and gave us regular updates of the situation in Tanzania.
We finally were able to go this summer, and what a trip! The wait was long, but it was worth it. The Tanzania Explorer team gave us an experience of a lifetime, first on safari in Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, and then relaxing in Zanzibar. The team took good care of us and always made sure we were okay and had everything we needed. They were always very punctual and gave us good information through the whole trip. Extra thanks to our safari guide Joshua, he is amazing! All hotels and lodges were excellent. Transfers within Tanzania were also very satisfatory. We highly recommend Tanzania Explorer!

Great safari! Thank you to John!
We took the 6 day safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli) with John as our tour guide. We had a great time and John was a very considerate guide and careful driver. He was keen we saw all the animals (we did- including a leopard!) and he was very attentive to our interests. We particularly enjoyed our stays at Mara Enkorok and Amboseli Kibo. We visited the Masai village from Mara Enkorok and thank you to Tom and Alex for showing us around. The Jocky tours office was also very helpful and arranged the train from Emali to Mombasa when we realised this was possible from Amboseli. In summary we enjoyed the safari and were very pleased with the service from Jocky tours.

Big Family Adventure 2022
From getting picked up at our accommodation to bring dropped off at Kilimanjaro Airport we have been extremely well looked after. Our guide spoke good English and he certainly knew his way around the Serengeti and we saw a huge amount of fantastic animals - the only one we missed was the rhino and that was due to cold weather we think!
Definitely recommend Serengeti Smile for good service, value and a fantastic safari over 3 days. Frank in the office was also extremely efficient and replied very quickly to any questions we had.

Best ratio quality price I've seen
We booked with Wakanda for a 6 days safari - the experience was incredible from beginning to the end.
Hamza was a super guide, always with a smile and a kindest person. We could learn a lot from him about the wildlife.
The food was of an impressive great quality also.
Best ratio quality / price I've seen when travelling.
Strongly recommend.

Outstanding 4 day tour of Tanzanias national parks
What an incredible 4 day safari with Suricati safaris! Just as advertised- airport pickup at Arusha, overnight stay at Summit Lodge, then a 4 day guided tour through Tarangire, the Serengeti, and the Ngorogoro crater/caldera. Our guide Ezekiel was oustanding! A trained guide in wildlife management, no question was too difficult (and we asked a lot- including the 5 and 11 year olds!). We felt completely safe and entertained throughout the safari, with magical stays in excellent safari lodges (Baghayo, Serengeti Heritage, and Ngorogoro Angata camp). Hilary was exceptional throughout, with quick and timely responses by email and 100% transparency throughout. Hope to do this again if we can with Suricati Safaris!

Amazing
Our safari with Lion King was a dream. Gilbert was our guide and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable on all animals and geography. He was funny and pleasant to be around. The Safari with Gilbert as our tour guide was definitely worth the money. If you book with Lion King request Gilbert!

Karina was loverly to work with - SUPER responsive, friendly, and offered expert expert guidance!
We had a wonderful experience in the planning of our Safari and had an absolutely FANTASTIC holiday!
We started planning our Safari with Karina in the fall of 2020, ever hopeful the pandemic would be waning and vaccinations fast and efficiently administered. Well that didn't quite happen and our plans for 2021 had to be rescheduled for 2022.
Karina was SUPER helpful, responsive, and helped us plan what felt like a 5 star vacation on maybe a 3 star budget. Her follow through on communications was superb. Her advice was spot on. Her patience , humor and caring on display.
We consider ourselves to be so very lucky we accidentally fell in with her after reading some reviews of Safari-online.com and deciding to plan our our trip in this way. We were especially happy to get to meet her at the Peech hotel where we were staying for the last few days of our trip. She went out of her way to stop by and say hello.
From start to finish we couldn't have been happier. All of the accommodations were clean, stylish and comfortable. The food was good (sometimes great!) and our Safari guides were SUPER knowledgeable, skilled, helpful and fun - all very nice folks! It was a great trip, a great value for the money. Karina helped us to make the best choices for our priorities. She's wonderful and we would recommend Safari-online.com and her to anyone and everyone.
Top Notch! Well organized (made it so easy!) and flexible too with a high level of expertise. Kudos to all! And MANY THANKS! P.S. - we saw all the BIG 5! - and so many many more - it was uh-MAZING!

Sebastian and his friends - GREAT!
What Sebastian and his team organised for us was simply fantastic and absolutely exceeded our high expectations. Thanks to you! Sebastian is always available, listens carefully and has put together a 9-day photo safari for us, which has taken into account all our wishes. Already the day before the start of the safari Sebastian came to us in Hotel in Arusha, discussed the last open questions and prepared us for an incredible experience. The next morning we were able to meet our guide and driver Joakim. Ten to twelve hours a day on game viewing tour, just the right wonderful accommodations, fresh coffee, water, Cola Zero and Sprite on the tours, great meal together in the bush, time to really observe the animals, three hours drive through the savannah without meeting another car, jogging on the border to Kenya in the morning, being able to ask any question, to feel at home without limits, to find exactly the right location for the photo and to laugh a lot together. What Sebastian and his team make possible is unbelievable - we will come back to you! Thank you for these impressions and experiences.

Holiday of a lifetime
We had a fabulous safari with Sammie as our guide. He picked us up in Nairobi and took us to Naivasha, Nakuru and the Masai Mara. He was professional and courteous and we felt that we were in very safe hands throughout our trip. He took into account our needs as a multi-generational group and was respectful of the wildlife, knowing always where best to spot the animals. He was very patient with my son asking him endless questions and always had a good answer.
