Masaimara with AxisAfricaSafari
We booked MasaiMara safari with Axis in October 2026.. It was for a group of 9 people.
Tabitha and Joy from booking office was very helpful and clear on their communication.
Yasin and Ahmed, our car driver cum guides, has been great in making our tour and game drive memorable. Overall had a good time in this package.

Great knowledge on siting views
Vincent was great. Prompt in taking us to different locations for good siting locations to see different animals doing different things. We saw a cheetah and the cubs eating an animal. We also saw two lions eating an animal. We saw an elephant and its calf taking bath and lions’ mating. We saw a whole lot of wilder beats migrating across the river. In between, we even saw some of them being grabbed by the crocodiles in the middle of their crossing. We saw different kinds of animals like doing different things. It was a wonderful experience. The landscapes were very beautiful. The sunset views are very unique in Serengeti National Park.

Responsible and helpful operator, beyond our expectation
I would say whistling travel is a boutique but excellent operator in Tanzania.
The itinerary was well designed and our requests were well treated. No mistakes, no scams, no emergency. They are responsive and powerful - prompt at dealing with problems if there was any.
Alex and Yuanyuan took good care of our special holiday. They are detail-oriented for the whole time, and really patient no matter how many questions we had.
Hope the guide can be more expert :)

Unforgetable memories
Amazing 6 days camping safari! Our guide Gerald was great, super good driver, felt safe with him, give us really good informations about wild Life. Gived uns a great experience in seeing so many different animals and memories.
Great organisation of the tour. Camp site in Serengeti, dikdik, was bieutiful landscape but poor facilities, would of like at least some water for a shower.
Simba camp site was super nice!
Down side : got food poisoning, all of our Group got very sick. Some of us miss a day of safari because of this. Lots of other people got sick too.

Exhausting but Great Experience
Our Safari with Suricata was a once in a lifetime experience we enjoyed a lot and definitely did not regret! We booked the 4 day mid range safari and we travelled with our 7 year old son.
Great about this trip was:
+ Terengire Park was the best start because we saw a lot of animals on our first day already, our son was so excited
+ We spend our first day in an old open safari vehicle - it seemed like an emergency solution because no other car was free but we enjoyed this a lot and it was way cooler than the other Cars
+ Serengeti and Ngorongoro are also definitely worth the trip and offered different landscapes and animals
+ All acomodations during the Safari were awesome, Boma Lodge was so special, and we also enjoyed staying in the middle of serengeti in Tanzania Bush Camp Simba - u fortunately I forgot the Name of the last accomodation but the staff in all of them were so nice as well as the food which was amazing
+ We felt close to nature and safe and welcome all the time during the Safari
+ We spend the last 3 days with our tour guide Alawi who was super morivated, kind,
had a lot to say about Tanzania, the region and the animals and most of all was really flexible to adjust the toor to our needs - best man! Our son loved him!
What could have been improved is the organisation around the tour by Suricata:
- We did not get any information from suricata regarding our airport pick up, didn‘t get any answers the day before arrival and indeed no one was at the airport to pick us up. Everybody was very friendly and tried to help at the airport, in the end we only waited 30 minutes and it all worked out. But still this is not the experience you want travelling with a kid. An e-Mail or WhatsApp shortly before arrival would have helped to feel better.
- The first briefing we got upon arrival would indeed have been helpful before, since it had some important packing Information: Bring long clothes, a scar for dust, tip for the driver (15-20 Dollar per Person per day), and the car only has space for luggage for 3 nights, the rest of your luggage Stars at the Hotel. Here as well: An e-mail before arrival would have helped.
- The hotel for the first and last night in Arusha was awful. We stayed at SG Resort, an information we also did not get in advance. The surrounding was so loud that we could not get any sleep before and after the Safari. During our last night a staff member even knocked our door close to midnight while we were already sleeping. They had miscalculated the bill for dinner and made us pay the difference in cash in the middle of the ight at the door in our pyjamas. Don‘t stay here if you don’t want to start or finish your Safari tired!
- What was also not communicated properly in advance is that you spend hours in the car on bumpy roads to get to your game drive and to your accommodations. For us it was fine but travelling with Kids you should definitely know there will be 2-4h extra time in the car additional to the actual Safari. If you have problems with motion sickness, bring medicine

Quick to respond, Probably most value for money.
We had a 5 days safari to tarangire, Serengeti, ngorongoro and Lake Manyara. We saw a lot of animals, had nice lodges and food were just fine. However, due to long distances on bad roads, I would recommend anyone to consider to fly directly to Serengeti.Or ensure having at least 2 nights stay in the park! We had lodges in Karatu and therefore we had to drive more than necessary, not to recommend. It would have been good to have one night stay before and after the safari nearby Arusha. Apart from that, the drivers try to do their best, but we are spoiled having been to both Uganda ( 2 Years ago) and Masai Mara ( 14 years ago), so we thought the safari in Tanzania was to commersialised! to many vehicles chasing the same animals...Tarangire was in that sence a better choice!

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Our Amazing Guide Omari!
We had an absolutely amazing safari experience in Tanzania with Freeingo Safari, and a huge part of that was thanks to our wonderful guide, Omari!
From the moment Omari picked us up, he made us feel completely safe and comfortable. He is an excellent driver, always driving smoothly and carefully, which gave us a great sense of security throughout the entire trip. On top of that, he has a great sense of humor and a fun personality, making every day of our safari enjoyable.
What impressed us the most was his incredible knowledge of wildlife. Thanks to his experience, we were able to see so many amazing animals up close! He knows the animals’ behaviors, habits, and resting times extremely well. He would always recommend the best time to start our game drives and help us plan each day’s itinerary to maximize our chances of spotting wildlife.
Omari was also incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive throughout the journey. He always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. His professionalism, passion for wildlife, and friendly personality truly made our safari experience special.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide! If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, we highly recommend Freeingo Safari, and especially Omari. He is not only a knowledgeable and experienced guide but also a genuinely wonderful person to travel with.
Thank you so much, Omari, for making our African adventure such an unforgettable experience! We will always treasure these wonderful memories!

Friendly
Moshi-Arusha trip was fantastic. I would describe it as great experience and definitely value for money.
Nelson was constantly communicating of the next step and gave us itinerary for the 4 days well in advance. He was also flexible in case we wanted to swap the plans around. His customer service is great and quite reliable from the onset.
My only recommendation would be probably to give various quotations based on Vehicle comfort and accommodation should one want to go above the budget for comfort or luxury purposes.
