Bucket list experience - amazing!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Adventure Travelling, during our fully private safari with two people. The advised accommodation was excellent, prices and everything was well arranged from the pickup at the bed & breakfast until the drop off at the airport.
Our guide Elinasi provided the best service. To start with he is a very likeable guy, his English is very good and he has a lot of knowledge about the country, the parks, nature and wildlife. And he did go the extra mile to make our safari truly magical. We slept glamping style in the middle of nowhere in the parks, where the nights are filled with animal and insect sounds. Laying in a comfortable bed and hearing lions roar and hyenas 'whoop' in close proximity of the camp was both exciting as relaxing. I still miss those sounds in my bed at home :)
We saw so many elephants and giraffes that I lost count, but also many lions and even the more rare leopard and cheetah were tracked by him. Even after a long day of driving, Elinasi was still fully motivated to try to deliver us another special encounter - and succeeded. He took care for us as if we were family and I can highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a bucket list visit to Tanzania. Thank you again Elinasi and Adventure Travelling, we'll meet again!

A real lifetime experience
Our 3-days safari (Serengeti and Ngorongoro) was perfect.
Mary was really helpful and patient, she aswered all my questions before the safari...and I had a lot as we travelled there from Europe by ourselves, not with an organized group or so.
Everything went perfectly well.
Then we met Mary and Morgan, our tour guide at the airport.
Morgan is an enthusiastic, young guide with more years of safari experience.
He knows a lot about the wildlife there and he loves telling and showing everything to his guests.
All of our 3 days there were breathtaking and amazing...we have seen the big five and a lot of other incredible gems of nature.
Our accommodations and the catering were also super.
We will definitely go back there again...and we will choose Psalms Adventures again for sure. :)
Thank you for this incredible lifetime experience guys, we are really grateful for you all!!

Easy communication, great logistics, and amazing experiences
I loved the experience from start to finish. The transfer to Pilanesberg was smooth and comfortable, and the driver (Sunny) was personable, professional, and knowledgeable. The safari was incredible - our guide (Tumi) went the extra mile to make sure we could spot as many animals as possible. We also managed so see lions, which apparently is quite unusual on such a hot day. Tumi delighted us with lots of info about the park and the animals we crossed paths with. Recommended!

Knowledgeable, caring, and a true professional, going beyond my expectations.
What a first class safari! Charles Tours did, indeed, give us a safari that was “adventure our way”. Fabulous hotels in natural settings or incredible lodges in the national parks. The trip logistics were seamless, and we spent just the right amount of time in each location. We had tremendous bird and mammal sightings: a lion kill, leopards, even a cheetah, all in addition to seeing over 500 species of birds. Charles Tours made sure we had plenty of time to enjoy our wildlife encounters without rushing, and made sure we had great photographic opportunities. The best part was being with the owner, Amani, who is so friendly, and always positive with a great sense of humor. He truly wants his guests to have a special Tanzanian experience.

Reliable, professional, best staff 100%
We just successfully reach the summit of Africa yesterday with Gosheni safaris and 15 members of an amazing team lead by Omary our main guide to reach the summit. Omary is an highly skilled guide that reached the summit for the 363 times yesterday. We felt that he truely care for our safety, he was knowledgeable about everything related to the mountain and Tanzania, he is also a devoted father of 2 and pretty much the father of most porter and lot of guide with less experience on the mountain. He truely love his job. Sam,our assistant guide on the trip was also an important part of our success with his contagious energy and help at all time. Sam is in fact a licence guide so we felt lucky to have 2 amazing guides with us. Our cook Thom was also great listening to comment about the food and adapting to our sometime modified taste because of altitude gain. We add the chance to have Kassim with us that played a central role in our confort. He was listening to us and provided anything possible to make our summit possible. He event climbed to the summit with us as a third member of the team to reach the top with us. Kassim is 24, the world belong to this amazing men and we are happy he keeps studying at the guiding school. Gosheni was more high end then other agency. For exemple, in all our acclimatisation hike, Kassim for carrying a table with 2 chairs and food and beverage. We felt vip and customer from other agency eating a basic snack on a rock look at us with envy. We had the perfect time reaching the summit but more important then the summit we reached, we add the chance to get in contact with 15 individuals that made this adventure memorable. Big thank to Omary (guide) Sam (guide) Thom (cook) Kassim (porter, waiter, Suisse knife of the trip) Issa (porter and toilet man) Ibrahim (porter) Mosses (porter) Baraka (porter) Salim (porter) Frank (porter) Nickson (porter) Samora (porter) Prosper (porter) Malkiadi (porter) Omary (porter) you guys are amazing and of course thank to Gosheni safaris!

Experienced, boutique & luxury level of service, 5-star recommended!
My husband and I just returned from an amazing 2-week honeymoon that was expertly planned and carried out by Sheengai Pride Safaris. We had the most incredible experience exploring northern & central Serengeti as well as the Ngorongoro crater region of Tanzania where we witnessed the very best of Mother Nature! I mean, we saw everything from elephants, to zebras, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos, wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, and so so many lions! I wish I could upload more photos, but the ones I chose from the trip speak for themselves! The sightings on every safari were simply outstanding, and the magic is that if we waited patiently, wonderful things would unfold.
Aside from the sightings, we were paired with the most incredible and kind guide, Joshua. He not only knew I was an avid wildlife photographer, but he helped angle the (incredibly spacious and comfy) safari vehicle to maximize the best lighting and composition for my photos! Joshua is extremely knowledgeable with over 24 yrs of experience, and my husband felt so fortunate to have met him and spent so many days together on safari! He literally knew all the roads like the back of his hand. Simply amazing!!
Sheengai Pride Safaris offered us a boutique-level of service and helped coordinate all of our hotel, transport, activities, food, etc. for our honeymoon. Augustino was so helpful throughout our 10-month planning process, and treated us like VIPs during our time in Tanzania - he was there to pick us up, answer any questions, and was there at the end of our trip to make sure we arrived at the airport on time. I highly recommend this company for all of your East Africa travel plans (it was our first time to the region!), especially for those combining safari in Serengeti with a beach trip to Zanzibar. Thank you, we will never forget our time together, and can’t wait to return!!

A reliable and flexible company
We made a safari with Smile for 8 days.
We visited three NP, Nyerere, Mikuni , Ruaha. The company is very flexible and adjusted the program to our wishes.
They do what they offer and communication with Jacob Moshi is good. It is a reliable company and that is important.
In Nyerere park we had Mr Deo as driver/guide. We had an open car which is excellent. Mr Deo is enthousiastic and an expert.
For the other two parks we had Mr Saloum as driver-guide. He has a lot of experience in the parks.
In Zanzibar Smile is represented by Mr Nurdin. Excellent services.
Overall , good and reliable company.
Highly recommended.
