Outstanding Tour Operator in Tanzania - Safari Soles
Recently, me and our friends went on a private 11-days safari organized by Safari Soles including Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro Crater with Maasi Village Visit & hiking to Materuni waterfall. My tour guide, Izak Marangu, made my first safari trip truly memorable and incredible!
Our guide and driver, Izak, provided 5-stars service to us and his professional knowledge on the animals & eco system and driving skills are bravo. Furthermore, his humorous character always made us full of joy through out our 11-days safari. Izak tried his best to find the big cats for us, such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, hippos and even the black rhinos. Finally, we were so lucky to see the big five and many many other species in the national parks. Izak, you’re great!
On the last day of our game drives, there has been a problem on the wheel. Izak considered the situation of our safety and arranged us to stay in a safe place. Then he replaced a new wheel on the jeep immediately and accurately. We all thanked his professionalism in managing all the things along our safari trip. Safari Soles exceeded our expectations and definitely making our safari in Tanzania amazing! Thank you so much for making us a unforgettable adventure in Tanaznia.
I have no doubt to recommend Safari Soles to anyone looking for a perfect safari operator.

Professional, providing exceptional customer service and fantastic tour experience
Excellent communication from onset with speedy response to queries. Outstanding customer service throughout. Well planned and organised tours in Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar. As well as fascinating game drives in Massai Mara and Serengeti seeing the Big Five, we were also immersed in the history and culture of the countries and had a relaxing beach stay in Zanzibar! The lodges and hotels we stayed at were of a high standard with good food. Our guides Kevin and Vincent were very knowledgeable, friendly and contributed greatly in our very memorable tour. The tour was good value for money. Fredrick did a fantastic job. We absolutely loved our tour.

Such a great experience
We had such a great experience with Crater Explorer! We booked the trip from Italy and Emmanuel planned everything according to our requests. We did a group Safari, which in our opinion is the best choice in terms of price and of sharing experiences. The first thing that you need to know with a group Safari is that you need to be flexible and patient because sometimes can happen to change group or guide or plans, the thing that will never change are the parks you have to visit according to your choice. We had the opportunity to see the big five and many other animals, our guides were amazing! Also the food and the accommodations were good.
We strongly suggest this experience and crater explorer made everything perfect!

Simply Awesome!
Thinkk Travels booked me and my family for a trip to the Mara and it was such a lovely experience!!
Right from the transport where we had a very engaging driver, to the hotel accommodation, the round trip around the park everything was awesome.
The planning phase was also excellently handled by Muthoni Gathitu with information being shared in a timely manner.
I am already looking forward to booking my next safari with Thinkk Travels and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to plan for a vacation!!

Super helpful, great budget option
We had a great Safari with Karibu Safaris in Kenya. We booked 3 days in Amboseli. It’s a great option for a budget safari, it was perfect for us. The van was comfortable. Our guide, Castro, was amazing. He was great at spotting animals (honestly I could not believe how good his eyesight is). We asked for a couple specific animals like hyenas and he made sure we saw loads of them! First day, a lovely 3 hour drive in the evening. Second day, a full day game drive with a stop at observation hill for lunch. On the third day we went on a nature walk with Saitoti, a local Masai who works at the camp we stayed at. I can’t recommend it enough. It was so interesting. We stayed at Manjaro Tented Camp which definitely was a highlight of our trip. Great staff and food and super comfortable tents. Be prepared to hear animals at night which really adds to the adventure! I definitely recommend this company. Booking was easy and Peter was super helpful. The park fees were included, accommodation, 3 meals a day and transfer to and from the park.

Pascoe was very knowledgeable and lovely, really improved our trip!
Loved our tour to selous national park. The driving and boat safaris far exceeded my expectations. The walking safari wasn’t good and I wouldn’t have minded skipping that entirely, though it was quite funny. The accommodation (though we stayed at a slightly different accommodation than usually provided with this tour, at Selous Ngalawa camp) also wasn’t great, and the food wasn’t great there either.
BUT Pascoe our guide and our driver (whose name I forget!) were great, determined to get us to find lions and made for a really enjoyable tour. They were able to sort issues for us on the fly and I would definitely go with these guys again. I think they provide good value for money.

Beyond expectation!
Silas at Apodiformes Adventures helped to make our first safari trip to Africa an incredible one! Our 20 day safari included both Kenya and Uganda as well as a couple of day trips. Before our trip even began, Silas, the owner of the company was very responsive to our many questions. Silas even went out of his way to help us with some logistical things to ensure our trip ran smoothly. We definitely are very grateful and appreciative of his extra efforts.
I highly recommend Silas and Apodiformes Adventures for any Safari trip in Kenya!
Our guides, Samuel, Jamal and Paul were very professional and respectful. Silas fosters a strong work ethic and it clearly filters to his tour guides as well. Thank you to Apodiformes for making our first trip to Africa so memorable!

An amazing experience
We went for a four days camping safari and it was an amazing experience. We had wonderful guides, Frederick and Rocky but also an amazing chef. They were willing to share knowledge but also personnal experience. The mood was great and the cooking very delicious. Enough variety for vegetarian as well. We loved it so much that we took a fifth day with Suricata to go to Moshi for waterfall, coffee and hot springs tour ! Feel at ease to book with them with your eyes closed and just follow the rythm !
