Cool and caring, he provided everything we could have needed during the journey.
We were a group of 4 people. Naseeb provided everything we could have needed, as water and some snacks for a long journey. He was really caring with us during the day, as well as easy going. We could see a lot of interesting sightseeing spots and have a wonderful meal with him.

Fun and accommodating!
We booked around 9PM for a safari the following morning after our original company changed the prices on us. We were picked up around 6:30AM the following morning for a half day safari. Our guides were knowledgeable not only about the animals, but also worked with other guides to know where to find the animals! After our safari we mentioned going to a market to shop, and since they didn’t have an afternoon tour booked, they took us themselves! A fun and memorable day all around!

Amazing one day safari
I only had time for one day, but I still was able to see so much wildlife I felt like I did 4 days. Mandela was an excellent guide and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.

Responsive, accommodating, adventure!!
Had an EXCELLENT experience coordinating with Lucy for our 4 day 3 night safari. Lucy was very responsive and quickly sent out multiple quotes based on different accommodation budget/types, so I had options to choose from.
I definitely recommend going for their budget tent camp option, Mara Olodare. Way better than the Lenchada camp that the others in my group went to. Incredible food and hospitable staff! We had an amazing stay.
Great tour groups as well, and tour guides that were flexible on what the group wanted to do. Value for money was great.

I can only recommend
We had a very lovely 4 days Safari Trip. Well organized and very good communication. We really loved everything and saw the big five and many more animals. Can only recommend booking the tour with Viva Safaris and stay at Tremisana Lodge (and you have to book the bushwalk!!). Thanks for everything!

Alberto was brilliant when we were booking our safari trip, always gave the best advice.
We booked this trip very last minute but Alberto guided us very well, perfect itenary right amount of time we went for.
The lodges and the camp was really good.
The driver Zakaria was very good, we managed to see all the animals we wanted to see and the weather was perfect for safari.
I would definitely recommend Serengeti smiles to anyone booking safari

Wonderful tour with a very knowledgable guide, excellent selection of lodges&great service
We had a wonderful one week long private safari with Mazingira Safari in November. It went well beyond our expectations and we were amazed in all means.
Our guide David is a great wildlife expert and also very conscious and responsible, which made it particularly pleasant to speak to him. He shared a lot of information with us on the wildlife and also on the country, we have learnt a lot thanks to him during this one week. He was great in spotting wildlife, almost always the first to find the animals before all other safari cars started following. He also took us away from the crowds in Serengeti which was excellent. We trusted him and he made us the best safari that felt very private and amazing.
Mazingira offered us an excellent selection of lodges and bush camps. Every detail in the rooms were well-thought, and with excellent service. Our comfort was ensured throughout the travel. The lunches were good, healthy foods and were super tasty. Overall it was an unforgettable time and I only wish I can do this again - and then it will definitely be with Mazingira Safari again.

Amazing Experience.
We were with Isaac and Joseph, and I don’t know where to start! From the pick up to the drop off, the experience was unbelievable. They brought us to beautiful lodges as well as secret spots in the natural parks allowing us to see animals without any other tourists around! We highly recommend Key2Africa. The planning with Amani over what’s app was quick and easy, and he ran the extra mile answering questions about the other part of our trip (Zanzibar). Thanks again team, we had a great time.

He was very helpful and nice. Provided a good service, I can only recommend him.
We are satisfied with the service. We received what was promised and what we expected. The price is reasonable. The accomodations were very nice, clean and comfortable. We’ve even seen the big 5. Overall we are very satisfied with the tour and we would gladly go again.

experienced company with excellent planning skills that was worth every penny
We did a 4 night 5 day safari in December 2022. Our guide was Ernest and our cook was Dixon, and we visited Lake Manyara NP, Serengeti NP, and Taragire National Park. From start to finish I was very impressed with the entire experience. Our tour was private since we were on our honeymoon, but we chose the tent camping option since that is what we could afford. Ernest was waiting for us at the airport and drove us back to our first night's accommodation which was absolutely perfect after a long travel day! I requested that the company arrange for an extra day in Arusha to allow us to rest before starting our safari, and they easily adjusted our trip schedule/prices. We met with who I believe was the company rep, and he went thorugh our entire schedule to make sure we were happy with the plan for the days ahead. Once we actually departed on safari, I loved every minute of it. Ernest was absolutely AMAZING- he was so knowledgeable and was an expert at spotting and getting close to the various animals. I felt like we had exactly the right amount of time in each location. Dixon kept us well fed every day with hot and delicious meals! Every night when we arrived at camp, the team set out tent up for us with our sleeping pads and blankets. The gear was a bit out of date but it did the trick. I would recommend bringing your own pillows if you decide to tent camp but that's really my only regret. Seriously if you are thinking about this safari, do it!! When will you ever get to wake up to the sunrise over the Serengeti and then have a wild elephant wander by your tent as your sip your hot coffee in camp?? Thanks again to African Big Cat Safaris for an amazing trip
