Incredible safari thanks to our fantastic guide!
★★★★★
Peter was an excellent safari guide throughout our entire safari, and played a huge part in making the experience so memorable.
From Tarangire to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, he was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, the parks and the different areas we visited. He was particularly good at spotting animals that we would have otherwise completely missed, and always took the time to explain what we were seeing and answer all our questions.
We were especially impressed with his knowledge of the Serengeti and the Great Wildebeest Migration. He understood the behaviour and movements of the animals and knew where to look for wildlife, which gave us some fantastic sightings. We saw elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, wildebeest and many other animals, and Peter consistently made sure we had the best possible opportunities to observe and photograph them.
He was also very patient and accommodating throughout the long game drives, never making us feel rushed and always prioritising our experience. His knowledge of the parks and ability to spot wildlife made a big difference, particularly during our time in Northern Serengeti around the Mara River.
Overall, Peter was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about what he does. We are very happy that he was our guide and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great safari experience in Tanzania.
Thank you, Peter, for an unforgettable safari!

First-class trip with a first-class guide, David.
The trip was a dream! From the truly great mix of national parks to the clean and well-equipped accommodations, all the way to our great guide David, the overall package absolutely convinced us. We felt well taken care of, safe, and well accompanied from station to station at all times. Everything was well organized, coordinated, and there was a great atmosphere even within the group of 6 people. That was also primarily due to David, who was competent, punctual, cheerful, accommodating, and in a good mood at all times and became a friend to all of us throughout the safari. We could not have wished for a better guide! The staff in the accommodations was also open-minded, committed, and service-oriented. The Ikoma Wildcamp and the Ngorongoro Wildcamp are highly recommended due to the amenities of the tents (also in comparison to the Serengeti Wildcamp) and unique experiences right close to the animals. All about a unique trip with numerous great experiences. Highly recommended!

Greatest trip ever
Insane trip. The safari was incredible. Trip of a lifetime. The animals and the views are unbelievable. Our guide Hassan made it all possible, the trip wouldn't have been the same without him. He made the trip very informative as well as being funny and a great guy to talk to. He made sure we got the full experience seeing the whole big 5 and many, many more. If you get a chance to experience this please do, and request Hassan.

Trip of a life time!!
What an incredible experience! We completed 6 day safari and it was amazing..Absolute bucket list item that exceeded all my expectations, which were very high anyway, largely due to our incredible Guide, Hassan.
Nothing was too much trouble. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals, went above and beyond to ensure we saw everything we wanted to see. His communication around pick up times and plans for the day was exemplary and put us right at ease. Some of the journeys were long but they flew by due to Hassan's personality and good laughs. He made us feel very special by arranging a secret celebration at our hotel for us for our honeymoon. Could not recommend this trip or guide any more!!

What a top one!
I went on safari with my mother last week and it was an incredibly beautiful experience. The rooms were great, we saw beautiful animals and the people are super friendly and hospitable. Despite that, we are most enthusiastic about our guide Papuu. Papuu is friendly, enthusiastic, caring, and knows everything. He knew how to answer every question we had asked about the animals, environment, plants, and even the history of Tanzania and its surroundings perfectly, and he knew a whole lot of extra information to tell about it! Furthermore, all transfers and meals were neatly arranged and everything was correct. Very good execution of a tight program :)
