I always envied wild life and this was my first experience. The experience was just outstanding., It was adventurous and unexpectedly affordable. The operator or our guide was meticulous , knowledgeable and reliable. This made me fall in love with the wildlife. I'm planning to do it again in November. I can't wait.

They went above and beyond to ensure we had the most amazing adventure of a life time.
We had the most amazing safari. Pedro was so helpful booking and organising the tour and went out of his way to make some extra changes that made our holiday even better.
Iddy our guide was so knowledgeable, kind, and ensured that we were having the most amazing time. The tour was definitely value for money and the memories that we made are invaluable. I have no hesitation recommending this tour company to anyone visiting Tanzania.

Friendly
I appreciated the excellent communication – they were persistent, incredibly friendly, and provided helpful, clear information in a delightful manner. The safari itself was truly fantastic, with a friendly and accommodating driver, as well as a comfortable jeep. The accommodations they arranged for us were outstanding. Every minute of our safari was thoroughly enjoyable.

Beautiful country with abundant wildlife and birds.
We went to 5 destinations. Ol Pejeta is notable for rhinos, Lake Nakuru for flamingos and giraffes, Lake Naivasha for birds, Amboseli for elephants and Masai Mara for everything (but especially lions). We recommend the balloon ride in Masai Mara. Our driver (Jason of Image Travel) was extremely knowledgeable about wildlife and made our trip enjoyable.

Excellent, amazing and experienced
It was an amazing and wonderful experience for me and my wife. We were lucky to have an experienced tour guide who knew the history behind the sites we visited and told them with excitement and humor. Both the guide and the driver were so friendly and offered an exceptional service, stopping at strategic places for photos and relaxation. The trip is priceless and we are sure to recommend more friends to come visit.

A grate safari tour with a grate safari guide- nelson
We had a 6 says tour in senergeti,ngorongoro and tarangire . The guide we had- nelson, made the tour an unforgetable pleasure...his knowledge about the wild life is priceless,and his long experience in these areas brought us to see a wide veraity of animals. Sometimes he knew where an animal is before we even saw it with the binacular....
And he drives the car smooth like a pro.

Highly professional & knowledgeable | Would always choose them again!
We had such a great time and experience with Serengeti Smile and can highly recommend them to anyone! Communication was always great and fast and our time in Tarangire and Manyara was the absolute best. Our guide Gama was very knowledgeable, easy to get along with and made always sure we were at our happiest. Thank you so much for everything - we can't wait to be back!

A first class experience from start to finish
We just arrived in Arusha after a 9 day Safari in Kenya and Tanzania. We spent the first 4 days in Kenya. We started from Nairobi and visited Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara in Kenya. Our guides Francis and James were amazing. They were able to find game viewing opportunities where we were the only vehicle. These were special moments. There were many of these moments but 2 that stood out were seeing a Cheetah with a fresh young Wlidebeest kill. It was so quiet that you could hear the Cheetah breathing. We arrived not long after the hunt had finished and the Cheetah had pulled the Wildebeest into a secluded area between some shrubs. 50 metres away there were 10 + Vultures in a tree waiting for the scraps.
The second moment was finding a Lioness with 3 cubs. Again we were the only vehicle there. The lioness could care less that we were there but the cubs were wide eyed. It was a beautiful scene. We were here during the Great Migration and were able to witness a river crossing. A once in a lifetime experience. Francis and James were amazing guides and their knowledge of the area and animals were impressive.
In Tanzania our guide was Suleiman Masaky. "Sele" was an amazing guide and was also able to find us equally unique experiences. We were able to see a Leopard in a tree that had just killed a Thompson Gazelle. Unforgettable! Sele also found 2 Cheetahs and we were the only vehicle there. The moments where you are alone with the animal are so special because it is so quiet and peaceful.
If you are going to book through Soul of Tanzania ask for Sele as guide in Tanzania and ask for Francis in Kenya. They will not disappoint. The accommodations were all very good. A highlight for us was arriving at Tangagire Sima Lodge on the last day and finding a herd of Elephants by the pool. Since the lodge backs onto the Tangagire Park and they have a small waterhole there were animals present throughout our stay. The other memory was at Pumzika Lodge in the Serengeti and hearing a Lion roar in the early morning very close to our tent!
The experience with Soul of Tanzania has been first rate from start to finish. We originally had planned this trip for 2020 and we had to postpone due to COVD. I worked with Sandy who was our Journey Designer. Sandy was amazing and communicated throughout the past 3 years. The company was so accommodating with allowing us to postpone until we felt comfortable to travel. As you may gather we highly recommend Soul of Tanzania for your Safari. Without question everything they promised they delivered.

Very clear and organized communication, very nice personal approach
Absolutely amazing!! Everything was perfectly organized from beggining to end. The hotel we stayed in near Ngorongoro was stunning, you could literally see elephants from your balcony. Overall, it was an experience we'll never forget and can only recommend to everyone, its definitely a good value for money and 100 % worth it.
