Best experience ever
I totally recommend doing a Safari with Suricata Safaris. They picked me up at the airport on time and drove me to the hotel in Arusha where a representative of the tours Twaha explained everything in detail, he even helped me driving me to the closest atm. The highlight of the safari was our guide Macha, he is just the best safari guide! He was very funny and proactive. He did his very best to drive us to see the big 5. I had two different guides and I learned the most important thing in a safari is the guide because he’s the one who can take you and spot the animals. So don’t hesitate to book your safari with Suricata!

Glorified accomodation booking service
The booking process with Spirit of Kenya started positive. However when trying to get more detailed information on the accomodation booked, itinerary specific etc things started to get less impressive. I never managed to get booking details from our Tanzania accomodation from the operator. So we tried to get this info from the accomodation. However without the booking confirmation code ( which Spirit never provided) they could not helps us either. So it became a guessing game in what kind of room, which what inclusions we would stay. Worst part was that Spirit seriously understated all travel times. As I read in a few other recent reviews. This seems to be serial. A quoted 1.5 hrs drive would be 3 hours. And a 6 hour drive became a 11.5 hrs on the road!!!! On top of this they forgot to book Serengeti entry tickets. Causing a 90 minute wait at the gate while our guide was trying to sort this out.
In regards advise on what parts of the parks were good or not to stay in we received absolutely no recommendations leading to very long drives from accomodation to known hot spots for animals.

A unique experience
The safari with Meijo exceeded our expectations. We spent 4 days on Safari and saw many animals up close. Our guide Mr. Michael was very courteous, experienced and always in a good mood. We would definitely recommend the tour through the 4 national parks Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti and Manyara. Hakuna Matata.

3-day Fly in Safari & Kilimanjaro foothills
The only way to describe our Safari Soles experience was total perfection. From the minute we made our enquiry to them, they were fantastic, extremely helpful and informative. Renatus assisted us promptly and helped us tailor our trip to suit our timescales, budget and wants. He was contactable whilst we were away and was brilliant throughout.
We opted for a three-day, fly in fly out from Zanzibar, including the day trip to the foothills of Kilimanjaro (day 1), safari in the Tarangire park (day 2) and finally a trip to the Ngorongoro crater (day 3).
Day 1 Foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro - We are glad we added the first day because it meant we could maximise the safari days without the flight in the morning, but the experience itself was unbelievable. Our guide and driver Baltazari was lovely, very informative and made sure we maximised our day. He taught us about local culture as well as his personal experiences, whilst taking us on a fantastic walk to the Materuni waterfall which was stunning, a coffee plantation and a beautiful hot spring.
Day 2 & 3 Tarangire Safari and Ngorongoro crater - Our safari days were unforgettable and made so due to our guide Simon, better known as the Safari Monster!! He was so lovely, a fantastic driver and guide and without him our days would not have been as good as they were - he went above and beyond. Without him, we would not have seen the Big 5 in 24hours, a new record! We put our trust in him and he delivered the best experience we have ever had.
Out of the animals we saw including, giraffes, elephants and lions (and much more) it is incredibly hard to see leopards and rhinos out on safari but we saw it all!! Even telling local people on our return about it they said that it is unheard of and that we had a very special trip.
We would highly recommend you book a trip with him and he would be our first choice for any future experience with Safari Soles (fingers crossed). Simon is a legend and we miss him already!
One difference that set Safari Soles apart from other tours we saw on Safari was the food that we had whilst out on the game drives. We had full meals, prepared and cooked by local people in comparison to the sandwich and juice box other groups had and it was delicious!
Overall, our experience was 11/10. If you are thinking of booking a trip to Tanzania, Safari Soles and the guides we have mentioned - they are a fantastic choice.

Very friendly
Arthur was very helpful in organizing our trip. We had a minor accident but he made sure we arrived to Vic Falls safely. He would wake up early to make sure that we were picked for all the activities we had requested. Lastly, he texted to check if we traveled well going back home. I would recommend him to anyone because of his hospitality and how transparent he is.

Andrew is an excellent game driver
We had an amazing 5 day safari with Axis covering Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Navasha and Hell Gates. Andrew was our safari guide and he is just excellent. He is a great driver, tried to maximise our time during safari so that we could see as much as we possibly could! Andrew was not bored of our 1000s of questions, was very organised and helpful. Highly recommend!
