Excellent Safari!
We booked our private safari with Mazingira Safari and were more than satisfied. Booking and communication with Johari runs smoothly and quickly. Payment via Pesapal also worked perfectly.
On site we were picked up from the airport and taken to our first hotel in Arusha. All accommodations were lovely, comfortable, clean and served delicious food. The highlight was our lodge in the middle of the Serengeti with wonderful views and animal sounds at night.
The safaris in the different parks were amazing and we were able to get very close to elephants, lions, cheetahs and other animals. Our guide Simon was great and gave us an unforgettable safari, where he also listened to our wishes.
We can only recommend Mazingira and Simon!

Gorgeous Tailor Made Safari organisation
5*****++
Hi Dears,
Our family experienced a so beautiful time under the organization of Shammah Wonders (Justin was in charge of) and we could only recommend whoever curious about a great Safari Tour, to get in touch with them.
First of all, Justin was always connected to listen and answer to any questions we had and always had a satisfactory solution to propose. We really appreciated that!
Secondly, we were the luckiest visitors to Nyerere Park (Selous) during our 3-day visit, as the guide we were given was definitely named King Lion!
Thanks Elly (Elihakim), you are amazing ! You are definitively King Lion !
Born into the bush, he was able to feel and get close to any hidden animals by getting out of the pist and driving us then out of the trail to catch them.
We were lucky to have you Man !
Second day was more relax with a village visit and Masaï community discover. Then we leaved for the boat trip. Omar was a great guide too plenty of grace, funny, excellent english and well aware about the fauna of the river (crocos, monkeys and hippos). Then we enjoy a beautiful reception for the sunset.
We saw all animals (…except the Leopard…) but could be so close of them at any time with all the precaution taken not to disturb them in their own environment. We loved Elly's professionalism.
Then the lodge was fun. Rustic (could be better in regards of the package…) but surprising as we hear animals in the surroundings of the camp and saw some elephant poo in front of our bungalow. They were real ! Food proposal could be more varied.
In Zanzibar, transfers were well organised but drivers could be more fluent in English.
Keep it up as you have delighted a family with your services.
To be repeated and warmly recommended.
Take care of yourself and your teams. Well done Guys !
Fabrice, Susana, Rebecca and Lara

Professional and experienced safari operation
Very professionally run safari operation. Right from the start we were very impressed by the responsiveness of Silas who somehow managed to respond to any and all of our requests literally within minutes. Nelson was our guide on the safari and he did a great job finding and maneuvering us in the best positions to view all animals up close. We travelled in a well maintained Toyota Landcruiser and Nelson was also very accommodating to last minute changes we requested to our itinerary. Unfortunately he was not able to finish the safari with us as he had to attend to a family emergency and Apodiformes clearly struggled to find a replacement for him on short notice for the last day of our safari (1 day hike in Mt Kenya Nationalpark). We ended up travelling a distance of 3 hours (1 way) in a worn out and unsafe (e.g. Seat belts and lights only partially working) beaten up salon car. Our driver Samuel was very attentive and nice but the last day of our safari unfortunately was not up to our expectations. Generally a 1-day visit to Mt Kenya we found is not worth it especially when travelling all the way from Nairobi. Overall we had a great time though and would like to thank Apodiformes for the nice experience!

Unforgettable!
We have a private 5 days safari with Serengeti Wakanda with my son. That was just amazing ! One of my best trip ever ! The Guide Andrew was very professional and knows the Serengeti by heart. He ‘s done his best aver time to show us unique wild moments with all the animals in every park. He has a huge knowledge about wild Fauna. His driving was very safe. The cooker was really excellent. He cooked delicious meals anywhere we go. We had lunch in the car with Lions !!! I recommand Serengeti Wakanda for its unique organisation !!! The team is really very professional and respectful. They did there best every minute to let us leave with wonderful and unique memories. We will come back for sure !!!

Awesome Safari Experience!
We did a 6D 5N safari for 2 people and had an amazing time! James was our driver who did an excellent job spotting animals and providing facts about different animals, plants and locations. We went with the hopes of being able to see the great migration, and we were lucky enough to see a wildebeest crossing on both days at the river in the north Serengeti.

Perfect organization, all essential information for a real adventure, safe
We went for a 5 nights 6 days tour to Mana Pools, 2 nights we spent at Chitake camp. We were a family of 5 people and had our children (17,19,21) with us , who were the first time in africa. The 4x4 car had a freezer , this made delicious food in the bush possible. The provided camping stuff is professional, as well as all the instructions. We had a real glamping experience in the bush. Already on our arrival in the Mana camp there were elefants just beside our camp site in the water. We saw most animals just from our chairs and still enjoyed the walking safaris. Walking in the daylight is safe, we had guides from the national park, which was good but to my opinion is not essential. Sitting in the bush with no electricity and internet and all the animals around was amazing and made our children talk to us much more than in everyday life. The sunsets on the Zambezi are great. Chitake is even more remote with lots of lions, what means that the days are quiet and most things happen in the night. Our driver made the remote adventure to a luxury safari.
The price value relation is very good, especially compared to the other Zim Tourism we experienced where one had the impression, that the few tourists here pay for everything. I only can recommend this organization.

Extremely helpful, welcoming and professional.
We had the adventure of a lifetime, thanks to the excellent help of Albert and his team at Serengeti Smile. In the build up to our trip to Tarangire, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater and then Zanzibar, Albert was incredibly helpful and responsive. He built a bespoke trip for our family of four (two teenage boys) and we are very grateful for the care they gave to making our trip so special.
Our safari adventure was led by our guide Gama, who was a delight. Gama looked after us so well, built a great rapport with our boys and was fantastic at finding us close encounters with the animals we particularly wanted to see (including but in no way exclusive of, Cheetah + cubs, lots of Lion, Serval, Leopard, Elephant, Hyena, Hippo etc). We stayed in some lovely lodges and camps.
Our trip to Zanzibar included a stay at the fabulous Tembo House Hotel and then time snorkeling and relaxing in the north of the island in Nungwi.
Thank you Albert, Gama and Serengeti Smile!
