Amazing experience with Shayona Safaris & Tours
We had an amazing safari experience with Shayona Safaris and Tours while travelling with friends. From the beginning, everything was well organised and clearly communicated.
Our guide, Ndaki, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and always willing to go out of his way to make sure we had the best possible experience. His knowledge of the wildlife and the areas we visited made the safari even more enjoyable.
The itinerary was explained clearly before the trip, and we really appreciated being given different options so we could choose an itinerary that suited us best. Throughout the whole experience, communication was smooth and the support from the team was very good.
Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend Shayona Safaris and Tours to anyone looking for a well-organised, enjoyable and memorable safari experience. A big thank you to Ndaki and the whole team!

Wonderfull Experience With The best Guide
Elias was our guide during the 5 days that lasted the experience. He was always caring of us and was the best driver and guide that we could ever dream of.
They helped us with the delay in our flight and offered alternatives to make our experience the best.
Thank you for all Elias and Mike!

Well structured trip and amazing safari tour guide
Amazing amazing amazing. Honestly I stayed at Jambo which was actually fine in terms of what it offered, the rooms don’t have ac but with it being cooler at night was ok. Internet is ok but not very consistent, food however was 10/10 and the staff members.
My tour guide Joseph was 10/10 did his big one to make sure we saw the big 5 and more than, very professional, excellent and super compassionate. We had some late arrivers and he did his best to wait for them without losing the experience.
Balu as a travel organization, excellent communication skills, really responsive to my manag many questions. Super easy to contact, make payment ask questions just an overall top quality experience.
This is my first safari so I have nothing to compare to, I would say it wasn’t luxury but honestly the quality comes down to the food which was great and the game drivers, we all end up seeing similar things you just need the right guide who is confident in getting you to the right spots at the right time and Joseph is your man.

Memories of Uganda
Our experience with Wild Uganda was incredible and exceeded all our expectations. From the very first day, everything was extremely well organized, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of the trip.
We would especially like to highlight our guide, George, who was absolutely excellent and played a key role in making this experience so memorable. He was always attentive to our needs, took care of every detail, and was ready to help us at all times. His experience and knowledge made the safaris truly spectacular, and thanks to him, we were able to see an amazing variety of wildlife. On top of that, his kindness, patience, and positive attitude made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire journey. Without a doubt, having George as our guide made our trip even more special.
The accommodations were also excellent, with outstanding service, beautiful surroundings, and incredible views.
We are leaving Uganda with unforgettable memories. The entire experience exceeded our expectations, and we would recommend Wild Uganda 100%. We would definitely choose them again and would be more than happy to explore Uganda once again with George as our guide.

Responsible, trustworthy and dedicated to offer you a great adventure. Great value for money!
The communication was always very uncomplicated and transparent from the beginning. This company provided us a tailored 5 days Serengeti Safari responding to all our requests, like type of lodges, tours, etc. Our guide was most professional, showing an amazing knowledge not only about the animals but also about the flora and the environment, and he was really engaged in offering us the best Safari of our lives! It was the best experience we had in Tansania until now, we saw and learned much more than we've expected and that is why we truly recommend them!

Highly recommended
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience. From the very first contact, Vincent was incredibly responsive and available to answer all my questions. Throughout the entire trip, he was attentive to every little detail and truly made me feel like a princess!
The safari itself was absolutely amazing and exceeded all my expectations. I visited Tarangire National Park on the first day, where we saw incredible wildlife, followed by the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater on the second day — simply breathtaking and definitely one of the highlights of my trip.
The hotel that Vincent also chose for me an amazing hotel for me is one of the best lodges in the area, if it’s not the best.He had carefully selected it to make the experience even more special.
And the experience didn’t stop there! On the third day, before heading to the airport, we had a visit to a coffee plantation, which was the perfect cherry on top of an already incredible safari.
But what truly made the difference was Vincent himself. He is an excellent guide and, above all, a genuinely wonderful person. He really cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. He is knowledgeable, professional, kind and incredibly attentive.
And I can honestly say this after speaking with many other travellers during my trip: guides like Vincent are rare. His level of care and dedication really stands out.
I would recommend Vincent with my eyes closed. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, don’t hesitate — you will be in excellent hands! ️
Thank you, Vincent, for an unforgettable experience!

Trustworthy, Accommodating and a Pleasure To Work With When Planning Our Dream Safari Trip
Everyone involved in our Safari trip were great to work with and extremely helpful. Mr. Juma, who owns the company made sure we had one of the best and most experienced guides and also allowed our tour coordinator Noah to put a personal touch on our trip. Mr. Noah was extremely helpful in putting together a customized Safari package that maximized the time we wanted to spend at various camps in Tanzania, Mr. Gido, our tour guide with over 25 years of experience not only put us up close to some amazing animal encounters but also kept us safe while driving around this wild and sometime unforgiving landscape. Everyone involved including the personnel at the various camps we stayed at were very friendly and accommodating. We had a Great 8 days personalized Safari trip and we left with a bag full of incredible memories and awesome stories to tell. HIGHLY recommend you contact Mamnana Adventures if you are contemplating a trip to Northern Tanzania.

Always available and ready to respond to and resolve problems or unexpected issues. We had an amazing time on our safari organized by Mellivora. Everything was perfectly planned, from the airport pick-up to the final drop-off. The itinerary was well-balanced, the staff was exceptionally professional, and every detail was taken care of. A truly 5-star experience that we would repeat in a heartbeat!
