5day tour sep 23
“I embarked on a 5-day safari adventure in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro regions, encountering the magnificent Big 5 along the way, with the exception of the elusive rhino. One standout moment was witnessing a leopard feasting on a gazelle—a truly special sight.
The weather was consistently hot, but a light night storm in the Serengeti added a touch of beauty to our journey. Our guides were excellent, even though accommodations were basic. The highlight was the fantastic food.
A surprise came in the form of cold weather in the Ngorongoro mountains, but it didn’t dampen our spirits. I learned so much about animal behavior, habitats, and the fascinating lifestyle of the Hadza people.
Overall, I’d highly recommend this safari experience, though I might opt for a shorter 4-day trip in the future due to the bumpy terrain.”

Amazing
Brilliant trip to Tanzania. Amazing people and safari. Spend more time in Serengeti, Tarangire and Ngorogoro, Manyara was a flop.

Unbelievable, magical place
Our family of wife (myself, wife and 2 children aged 9 & 6) had the trip of our lives in Tanzania
Shadows of Africa organized a beautiful, luxurious trip for us in luxury accommodations in and outside the Serengeti. Zamo, our super knowledgeable and professional guide who stayed with us through the trip because one of the family at the end of the trip and my boys were crying when saying good buy to him
We saw the big five and so much wildlife. Our kids and ourselves were constantly mesmerized.
We left Tanzania with so much fond memories and several of their folk songs stuck in our heads till this day!
Highly recommended trip

Great beaches, wonderful culture and safari
End of may was a great season. It was still quite as it is low season and it was basically not raining. The safari was great as the great migration was starting in Serengeti. Ngororogoro was a great experience as well. We managed to seethe big five
My least favorite park was tarangire

An incredible trip to Tanzania
My wife and I always wanted to take a safari to see African animals in their natural habitats. After extensive research to determine whether we go to Botswana, Kenya, South Africa or Zambia, we decided Tanzania had the largest concentration of animals in all of Africa in the smallest geographic area, it was easy to decide on Tanzania. We then researched safari tours of all types, and again, comparing many different companies' offerings, we determined that the tour offered by Lion King had an excellent 8 day itinerary which not only included lots of animal watching, also included nightly stays at tent lodges that were all amazing. We booked the tour, and went in January, when the temperatures are cool. Everything that the tour promised was exactly what was delivered. The safari was incredible. The tent lodges were like 5 star hotels with incredible views. Our tour guide and driver, in a very comfortable Toyota Land Cruiser, was could not have been more friendly and knowledgeable of where the animals would be. My wife and I are in our 70's, and we had no problems with this trip. The people of Tanzania, without exception, were kind, caring and wonderful to be with. Eight days of sunny days with about a 70 degree high. What are you waiting for? Go to Tanzania and have an experience you and your spouse, friends or kids, will never forget.

Amazing country, superb safari’s, extremely kind people.
I travelled to Arusha last November and did a 5-day Safari with Meru Slopes Safari. Visited Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro National Park. Loved all of them as they each have their own unique sceneries. What I found most remarkable (compared to my safaries in South Africa) was the high number of animals. Not only seeing so many species but also the huge numbers, especially seeing the Big Migration is fantastic!
Later on travelled to Mafia Island to see and swim with Whalesharks. WOW!! Once in a lifetime experience!!!!
Tanzania is a very safe country to travel in, with great people and great food! Don’t doubt, GO!

A truly beautiful country
It is my third time that I have visited Tanzania. I love the warmth of the people, the beautiful country and the food. It is one of Africas hidden secrets.

Incredible safari experience!!
This was an incredible experience all around, and that is largely due to the incredible hospitality and friendliness of everyone we met in Tanzania. The safari was amazing - while the star of the show is obviously the animals and habitat, the knowledgeable guide, well maintained vehicle, and delicious food (thank you Ben) made it all the better. Our tour guide (Chris) was simply amazing!! He made sure everything was as frictionless as possible. The food was fantastic and everyone was looking forward to each meal. The guides you choose are a big part of your experience and I could highly recommend Jiwe adventures more if you are looking to visit Tanzania!
