A trip of a lifetime thanks to Serengeti Wakanda tours and it's incredible team of people!
I couldn't recommend Serengeti Wakanda tours highly enough. From start to finish we were provided with excellent service. Bartho who we organised the tour with, was extremely helpful and always provided swift responses to our questions. Bartho advised us on what would be the best tour for us and really catered to our needs, especially given that our Safari tour was for a special occasion.
Mike our Safari guide was absolutely incredible, we felt very lucky to have him as our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the different areas we visited such as Tarangire Park, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and Lake Manyara. We asked Mike endless questions and he was always happy to answer, despite wearing him out with all our queries! Mike was always very attentive and looked after all members of our Safari group, going above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable during our Safari day trips. Mike is an absolute legend and you should count yourself lucky if you have Mike as your guide! He knows all the best spots to see the animals and was always manoeuvring the jeep to ensure we got the best possible photograph's of the animals. You really are magic Mike!! We managed to see so much because of Mike and his ability to track the animals and understand their behaviours and the best time of day to find them. We got so close to lions, leopards, cheetahs thanks to Mike's driving skills too!!
Abdullah (Dullah) was the best cook I could have hoped for. His food was incredibly tasty and always provided great variety, with new meals every day. Similar to Mike, Dullah went above and beyond to cater to our needs, cooking delicious vegetarian meals for my partner and I whilst catering to meat eaters in the group as well. I am missing Dullah's cooking already, especially his vegetarian lasagne!!
I feel very lucky to have had such an extraordinary Safari experience and it was all down to Serengeti Wakanda tours and it's incredible team of people. Thank you Bartho, Mike and Dullah for all your time and efforts in helping us organise this trip of a lifetime and for making it extra special. It will be impossible to forget this trip and all the incredible experiences. My partner and I are already planning to rebook another Safari with Serengeti Wakanda tours again soon!!

Absolutely outstanding and attentive to our needs
Bison Safaris is the best company to go with when doing an African safari. Communication was excellent and fast.
We had a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. He was very warm and hospitable and made sure we were happy on every step of our trip, he made us feel at home. We managed to see big 5,birds of prey.
All the lodges we check in were top quality and the staffs were incredibly professional and attentive in every single aspect..Our 9 days safari was brilliant and great value of our money and you should definitely book with Bison Safaris

Excellent, creative, friendly : a real PARTNER
To see gorillas but also a "not-spoiled country" was our dream for a long time. Jolie was really helpful to set up the itinerary with us... She also kept in touch during the trip to take news :)
Our guide Haruna was fantastic! Good balance quality-price, most of the lodges were excellent (average category).
We were 5 adults, 2 ladies, 1 men & 2 young guys (18-24).
Please however note that the trip is TIRING (very long & daily drives), short nights. Don't be too ambitious with your program!

Wonderful 1 week safari
We are lucky we booked our safaris with Bison Safaris. They were recommended to us by our old friend who travelled with them 2021 .
We didn't have any complain. Everything was perfect organized by Maggie from itinerary ,lodges, camp. The lodges were clean, the service was professional, food was delicious.
Our safari started in Nairobi, we did Nairobi city tour and we surprised how much you can do and see in Nairobi (I recommend city tour before you proceed to your safari, so much to learn and see) We later proceeded to Masai Mara ,Nakuru and Serengeti. We did hot air balloon in Masai Mara ,it was absolutely fantastic experience and worth your money
If you planning to visit Kenya I recommend Bison Safaris

Very good services, nice driver. Would recommend!
Everything was perfect from the start. Driver picked us in the morning as expected, waited us at the airport arrival. Travel to Mikumi was nice, car was comfortable, and driver was very nice.
Accommodation was awesome. It was great experience to live in Camp bastian. It was simple but very comfortable. Staff was very helpful and kind.
Safari drives were the best part. We had chance to see almost all the animals in first day and even very close nearby. Driver always did extra mile for us to get closer look to an animals.
All in all - very recommend.

Zohar African Safaris was very dependable, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with.
We were extremely happy with our 8-day Zohar safari, which combined wildlife thrills in several parks with valuable cultural interactions with local tribes. The company’s owner, Lilian, was very accommodating of our needs throughout the entire process, before, during, and after the trip. She even used her contact (Said) in Zanzibar to ensure that our visit to the island following the safari was filled with various activities. We couldn’t have been happier with how the entire experience was handled.
Our guide was Tom (Tumsifu) who went out of his way to make sure that we saw all the animals that we possibly could, including a leopard feasting on a gazelle, cheetahs stalking their prey, herds of migrating wildebeest, and playful lion families.
Tom was always punctual and in a good mood, which helped the driving time pass very quickly. We had countless conversations with him on a variety of topics pertaining to life in Tanzania, and he illuminated greatly our understanding of this country. We also cherished our hot lunches in the wilderness of the savanna, which Tom would set up with expert grace. And, of course, he knew by heart every inch of the area we were traveling in, and had detailed knowledge of the local fauna and flora.
We absolutely recommend to everyone booking Zohar Safaris to experience the trip of a lifetime!
Tanzania is a beautiful, colorful country, and its people are very friendly, hospitable, energetic and ambitious. In addition to the safari itself, we visited and interacted with the Maasai, Hadzabe and Datoga tribes — and it was an enjoyable, authentic cultural experience.
We would like to thank the entire Zohar team for their professionalism, expertise, kindness and hospitality!

They delivered more than expected !
We are a couple traveling to Tanzania to make a safari dream come true. We talked to Issa by email and WhatsApp. Issa helped us create the itinerary exactly as we wanted. He was attentive and always quick to answer any questions. About Serengeti and Ngonogoro Crater our expectations were high from what we had read. We chose July because we wanted to see the great migration. And it was just amazing! we were very lucky to have Lameck as our guide. Lameck has a lot of knowledge about animals, their behaviors, habits, characteristics. Besides that, Lameck loves those animals. We can see how much he really loves and admires them, in small details. Lameck tried to give us everything he considered relevant and, above all, he apply all effort to take us everywhere, different landscapes, animals, different animal events he was making sure we didn't miss anything. Lameck is very polite and an excellent company to spend seven days with! Our chef Rama also enchanted us with his joy and culinary talent as everything he prepared was delicious. There was plenty of food and it was prepared with care by dear chef Rama. We had a lot of laughs with him and we miss these wonderful people. We went to the northern Serengeti to try to see the wildebeest crossing the river. No one could guarantee that we would make it as it is an event of nature. But we were very lucky and thanks to the knowledge and logistics that Lameck applied we were able to watch 4 river crossings. We were thrilled and grateful because we were able to fulfill our dream and purpose of the trip. our safari was simply beautiful and unforgettable. We saw all the expected animals: thousands and thousands of wildebeest, leopards in the trees, families of elephants, crocodiles, hippos, hyenas, zebras and giraffes, birds (Lameck knows birds very well), cheetahs, different types of antelopes, pumbas, lions … we just have to thank Issa, Rama and Lameck with all their dedication and great eyes to see animals!
