Alika Africa is a reliable, full-service, top-shelf safari provider!
This was my third safari with Duma Explorer/Alika Africa. Stacy at Duma Explorer/Alika Africa planned a memory-packed, fantastic experience of a lifetime for my family (6 of us) and friends (8 more)!
Stacy arranged all of our pre- post- and on-tour accommodations, and they were second to none! Every staff provided service that was over-the-top! They made us feel like family everywhere we stayed. Tumbili Lodge and Rivertrees Lodge were fabulous pre- and post-tour places to stay – gorgeous suites, delicious meals and beautiful grounds! While on safari, the Tarangire Safari Lodge provided spectacular views, Sound of Silence Camp had incredible, cozy tents that felt like we were living on a Hollywood set, and Lion’s Paw Lodge provided glamping at its best! All had in-tent hot showers, flushing toilets, sinks and vanities, comfortable beds and attentive staff members. We snuggled into our professionally turned-down beds, after 5-star meals, and listened to the animals sing us to sleep every night.
And then, of course, there was the actual safari! Most of the people with us were experiencing safari for the first time. They were all hoping to see A zebra, A giraffe, AN elephant, and A lion. Their first-timer wow-moments, gasps, awe-inspired expressions, and daily most-memorable moments were so fun to experience with them! Our guides, Joseph and Ebenezer were so knowledgeable and patient with all of our black-rock rhino, dirt-mound lion, lumpy-tree leopard, wart-hog cheetah sightings:) I’m sure we wore them out with our questions, but they never quit answering them or educating us with their knowledge from their years in the bush.
What an adventure we had - we will be talking about it for the rest of our lives. While I thought this might be my third and final trip to Tanzania, I find myself already yearning for my return to the most amazing place on Earth. And, of course, I will be contacting Stacy at Duma Explorer/Alika Africa to help me plan my next Tanzanian expedition!

Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater
We joined a 4 day tour to Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater in June. The trip was well planned, and the accommodation at Serengeti Semetu Camp was excellent. Waking up to the beautiful sunrise and giraffes outside our windows is a highlight of our trip. Our guide was experienced and informative. We managed to see the Big 5s and took pictures from the perfect angle. We couldn’t believe our eyes when we saw the baby lions and a leopard on the tree. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

The most amazing safari made perfect by Wildlife Safaris and our guide Simon
Highly recommend working with Wildlife Safaris. They provided excellent communication, organization, and service from the initial inquiry to the running of the Safari. Everything was meticulously planned in terms of timing, accommodations, and stops, offering excellent value for the experiences we enjoyed.
However, it was our guide, Simon, who truly made our trip exceptional. I cannot commend him highly enough for his professionalism, knowledge, and skills. When spending hours upon hours over days with a guide, they can truly make or break the experience. Simon ensured our comfort throughout and showed great courtesy to all family members. His deep, insider knowledge of the parks and wildlife was evident, and he used it to maximize our animal sightings. Simon knew precisely where to pause for breaks and how to make our time enriching. I enthusiastically recommend both him and the company to others.

With Starpal Safaris we had the greatest safari experience ever!
My best references go to Starpal Safaris, Paul, who organised everything, and Glen, our guide.
These guys really do their best. During the prep period Paul answered all my questions immediately and his advices and recommendations always were of high value. While we travelled, his colleague Glen took care of us. Thanks to Glen, we saw all the big 5 on the first couple of days) And that was just beginning)
Guys, you are the best) Mama and papa say hi)

Best Experience of Our Life
Visiting Tanzania’s parks with Omary was a wonderful and unique experience—one that everyone should have in their lifetime. He was an excellent guide and driver, unmatched in spotting animals. His knowledge of the territory was impressive, and we loved our conversations about local customs, the Maasai, the bushmen, and the pros and cons of living in Tanzania. Throughout our 10-day safari in Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Parks, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Omary made us feel comfortable, safe, and happy. We hope to return someday for another tour and to give a big hug to our friend.
